Mr. Luman Holman from
over Jacksonville way was
the program last Thursday
at the Rusk Lions Club. Mr.
Holman is well known as an
outstanding speaker and this
was no exception. He stated
that it would be a good thing
to live by the field notes of
an engineer, using the points
of a compass in our lives.
N-navigate; E-enlist; S-ser-
ve and W.work. It would
certainly take all of these
points to get the best out of
life. If we get off the course
alwasy refer to the co:npass
to get tnc best out of life.
If we get off :h® course al-
ways refer to the compass to
get back in the right direct-
ion. A great speaker and a
wonderful program.
The Mid-Winter Conference
was in Center last Sunday
and those attending from the
Rusk Club were Lion Presi-
dent Jack Fitts, Lion Zone Ch-
airman Ike Daniel and Lions
Glenn Stanley, Bud Parrish
and Leon Pledger. Lion Ike

ion and By Laws Committee.
He is certainly to be congrat-
ulated for the fine work he is
doing in Lionism.

lowship, and mutual underst-
anding, To Provide a forum

NAB HAS A GOOD KECORD
President Nixon recently asked the National Al-
liance of Businessmen to accept a three-year exten-
sion of its charter, which is scheduled to expire this
Jline.
Since it was established, a little more than two
and one-half years ago, the NAB has been widely ac-
claimed for its record in creating jobs for the so-
called iiiiemployahles.
Newly hired workers under the program have
totalled around 536,000. Nearly 24,000 companies
across the nation have participated in the program,
and 8,000 top people from business and industry
have been loaned to NAB.
Over a quarter of a million men and women are
now on jobs made possible through the NAB, ac-
cording to its chairman, Lynn Townsend, Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer, Chrysler Corp. In the
words of Mr. Townsend: "NAB hasn't worked any
miracles. But it is doing a thorough, professional
job of helping to solve a critical social problem. It
has helped to find work for thousands of men and
women who have never before held meaningful
jobs."
Admittedly, under today's economic conditions,
the task is becoming more difficult. These same
conditions make success of the program more
imperative.

Get an electric range
and retire
On an electric range the cooking coils are self-
cleaning. They stay soil-free and cook so cleanly
your utensils won't have a chance to get black
bottom' No flame, no smoke to discolor the glow
of copper or dull the sparkle of aluminum or
stainless steel So instead of having to scour, retire
to the patio with a good book A self-cleaning oven
lets you retire from oven-scrubbing, too See the
many other time-and-effort savers on electric
ranges at your appliance dealers and tell him

Brothers — together — helping one another. We are our brother's keeper and his
helper. Comfort, cheer, and encouragement should be given to each other.
There should be a willingness on the part of each to sacrificeyfor the other.
A Divine Example was sent to us, and these are His words¡ "This is my
commandment, that ye love one another, as I have
loued you. Greater Ioue hath Ho man
than this, thai a man lay down
his life for his friends."
You are invited to attend
church Sunday to learn
more of the One who gave
us this commandment.
