Increasing numbers of presumed respectable people have converted the commandment into a caution...Stealing has reached proportions to compel package designers of store sold products to keep a principal thought in m i n d- thwart the thieves. More and more products are sealed, through necessity, to keep people from taking home two products for the price of one. Price tags have to be placed underneath cellophane to keep people from switching tags. Small items are mostly sold on hard to conceal bulky card board, displayed on racks at eye level. A half million shopping carts were stolen last year! Sounds unbelievable? Ask any merchant! Hotels and motels report staggering thefts in such things as towels and table ware. Incredible as it seems, even Bibles are stolen! Sounds unbelievable? Ask any motel manager! More and more people are beginning to wonder what- ever became of our old fashioned American integrity. More and more people are beginning to think that maybe the best way to break this growing imprisoned habit of stealing would be to enforce a certainty of imprisonment when caught. They may be right. What do you think? Publishing a small paper is no picnic. If we print jokes, people say we are silly. If we don't they say we are too serious. If we stick to the office all day, we ought to be out hunting stories; if we go out and try to hustle, we ought to be at the office. If we don't accept contribu- tions, we don't appreciate genius; if we print them, the paper's full of junk. If we clip things from other papers, we're too lazy to write them; if we don't we're stuck with our own stuff. Now, likely as not, some guy will s we swiped this from some other paper.

They were married at Osborn, Kansas, November 11, 1908 and were residents of Kansas for 28 years. They moved to the Boise area in July of 1936 and lived on South Pond street until they moved to Council in 1969. Their three sons, Donald and Doyle, both of Council, and Dean of Boise, with their families attended the small reception held in their home. Their daughters, Beulah Lines of Livermore, Calif,, and Wanda Halstead of Petrol- eum, W. Va. were unable to attend. They have 25 grand- children, 36 great-grand children and 4 great-great grand- children. Their friends honored the couple with a card shower. PEARLS OF WISDOM --'WORDS OF NOTE Give us again, leaders of courage, men of vision, who believe that right makes might, men with faith in the efficiency, the strength, the permanency and the ultimate triumph of this Blessed Old Republic. William E. Borah Splitting Heirs A lawyer who finally settled a very difficult estate case was telling his colleagues some of the gory details. "It was a tough fight all the way. The heirs got almost as much as I dicl."...W. Virginia Gazette • @ • in to prevent unwanted sprout- ing during storage of these crops is under review by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Gem State producers have until Jan. 9, 1978, to respond to an EPA notice of rebut- table presumption against registration (RPAR) of pes- ticide products containing the liquid growth retardant maleic hydrazide, also known as MH. Based on scientific studies brought to its attention, EPA has determined that MH represents a presumptive cancer risk, can cause gene- tic mutations and may affect reproduction adversely. "Maleic hydrazide is sold in Idaho under the brand names of Sprout-Stop and Sucker-Stuff," explained Walter C. Sparks, research professor of plant sciences and coordinator of potato programs stationed at the University of Idaho Research and Extension Center, Aberdeen. "MH is also reg- istered for use in Idaho to control wild onion and garlic in lawns and grasses in parks, golf courses and air- fields and along highways." Sparks, who is serving on a national team of specialists assessing the importance of MH, said the "sucker" con- trolling compound is used nationally on about 25 mil- lion hundred-weight (cwt) of potatoes in storage each year. He estimated that some 10 million cwt of potatoes are treated annually in the Pacific Northwest alone. "Considerably more MH will be used this year because many growers are using it to prevent the sprouting of volunteer plants in their fields," Sparks noted. Volunteer , plants harbor the potato leaf roll virus which is transmitted by the green peach aphid from dis- eased to healthy plants. An outbreak of the green peach aphid during 1976 and 1977 threatened Magic Valley potato growers in south- central Idaho with financial disaster until a spray pro- gram brought the aphids under control. "At present, there are no • alternative compounds avail- able or in development that can prevent sprouting by internal modes of action," as an aid for women, but its real purpose in prohibiting discrimination on a basis on sex is to help homosexuals. Civil Rights laws already protect women. Perverts are screaming about their so-called "Civil Rights" {nay, "h u m a n rights") -- but straight {normal} people outnumber homosexuals, and decent people have Civil Rights, too, which should be res- pected. The real Civil Rights issue is the right of straight citi- zens not to have gay values imposed upon them ERA (and pro-gay politicians) must be defeated. Ratifying the ERA would be destructive to our culture. Since the beginning of civi- lization the human race has prospered and improved by assigning different roles for men and women. Women have been shel- tered to make a loving home for the men and to nurture their children in Americanist values. There would be no romance were it otherwise. In emergencies and where necessary, women have been willing and able to come out of their assigned position to help their men. And they have done a remarkable job. History is full of examples from Biblical times to the present. ERA not only attacks our moral convictions {i.e. man's responsibility for his wife and family; a woman's posi- tion as helpmate and child- ren's guide: heterosexual marriages only, etc) but it attempts to do the impos- sible: rearrange nature. Can you imagine the end- less number of laws needed to make male and female equal? It would be chaos. other laws. The ERA would only hurt women -- not help them. Kay Johnson t Dear Editor, Once upon a time a tract of land was surveyed carefully to establish true property boundaries. Then soon after, a neighbor came and pulled some of the corner pins. This person did not want to obey the government laws. He did not want to obey God's law. He made his own law. The owner of the surveyed land cried because he had lost money in the cattle business and needed to sell the tract. The surveyor cried because he had to halt all other pressing work and resurvey the property. The surveyor's wife c r i e d because she saw less of her husband. The children cried becat se their father did not have time to take them fishing. The real estate man cried because he could not sell the property until the survey was completed. The attorney cried because he could not collect his fee. The buyer of the property cried because he would have to wait for his new house. The contractor cried because he could not start building the house. The cat driver cried because he could not work and feed his family. His family cried because they were hungry. When everyone cried, there became a great flood and washed the unloving neighbor and his house down the creek and into Hell's Canyon. Only then did he Countdown by Jim Perry The Council Church of the Nazarene The news reporter !told a yearly stow, the other night. Thu stores had been crow- ded on the first offi- cial shopping day. It was the day after Thanksgiving -- Christmas 1977 was on its way. Almost a week has gone by now. This week-end or next we will be told daily the number of days left to shop until Christmas. Thanksgiving marks the beginning of a very exciting time of year, the Christmas countdown. Santa is on the fight posts. Reindeer are on the tops of stores. There are red socks full of candy canes on the entry ways of shopping cen- ters. While this is all hap- pening in the city and local stores, we place pine, fir and cedar trees in our homes. The colored lights, decora- ting these trees, add a sparkle to our homes and family activity for the Christ- mas season. As the fights blink on and off we are aware that Christmas is coming soon. The Christmas count- down continues. Children are told that they must be good. Santa can see them all the time from the North Pole. (God can all year) A good boy will get his toy. A good girl will get her doll. The question is what do you want for Christmas?

U.S. onion growers pro- duce 31.4 million cwt of onions each year at a value of $222 million, Sparks said. He indicated some 45 percent are stored several months, but information is lacking on how many of these stored are treated with MH. "We do know, however, that maleic hydrazide is the Sparks pointed out, adding only known compound that that there are none which prevents sprouting in stored would prevent volunteer onions," he stressed. growth, either.
