First such program to be staged in Florida with gov- | ernment assistance, the Key West troupe performed here and in Miami, ending the ‘run with a radio presentation in costume before a studio audience. In the folowing year, the group organ- | ized a mixed chorus of 50 voices, the Hos- ‘| pitality band, a Cuban Marimba band and | the colored Welters band and Island City Chorus.

Concerts have been held frequently at the naval station since September, the musicians were planning new forms of recreation for service men when they were ordered to disband. The Citizen echoes Supervisor White's musical talent and that children in schools will continue their interest in sing- ing. The musicians worked well and Key Westers will miss them. HOLY WEEK | The most significant period of the | fore Easter, beginning with Palm Sunday, { which this year falls on Apri! 6. ¢ Palm Sunday celebrates Christ’s tri- f umphal entry into Jerusalem and the strew- | ing of palm branches in his path by the multitude. Maundy Thursday commemorates the ‘Last Supper and the washing of the apostles’ feet; also Christ’s agony in Geth- semane and his betrayel by Judas. Good Friday represents the day of the crucifixion and is celebrated in Catholic and Anglican churches with great solemn- ity. Easter Even is the name given to the entire day of twenty-four hours between Good Friday and Easter, a period for prayer and religious contemplation. Easter Sunday, the most joyous day of ‘the Christian calendar, commemorates the resurrection, and this year falls on April 13. In the early history of the church, Easter was. observed on various dates by different bodies of Christians, but the Council of Nice in the year 325 fixed it as the first Sunday following the full moon occurring on or next after the vernal equinox, March 21. Easter Sunday may come as early as March 22 or as late as April 25, and its date governs all ecclesiastical days from Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent, to Trinity Sunday, eight weeks after Easter.

One week in April has, for the past few . years, been “Youth's Week’. This year, April 6-13, has been laimed the week. 115) Paul, in writing to Timothy, charecd, “Let no man despise thy youth”, The four faculties of the make- up of youth are compounded in: “The intellectual, the moral, the physical, and the spiritual’. Stu- dents of psychology tell us that the whole span of life, to be ‘well-balanced must have an equal respect for each of the | abeve-mentioned. FIRST: The intellectual na- ture cf vouth has unfolded before him opportunities too numerous to add up. Comparing the edu- cational chance our youth had three decades ago, we note tre- mendous strides. But, Miss Ira Jackson of the University of Chattanooga, last year in a youth’s address, made a fair criticism: “This crazy world is full of the idea that ‘seeing is believing’, and if we do not see, we do not ke- lieve”. We have lost sight of values, other than boundary lines. Such spirit is dangerous and should be done away with. What if Germany's dictator and countless ather dictators the world over could suldenly visualize the needs of their youth instead of gazing greedily at their neigh- bor's territorv? “Where there is ino vision, the people perish” (Prov. 29:18). SECOND: The moral nature of youth develops his character. It is that nature that makes you a gentleman or a lady. It makes tion, brought visitors from all over the state | and nation, including Dr. Nicholai Sokaloff, | FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 527 William Street Rev. E. S.

The lines in the face, the “straight in the eye look”, the positive con- versation do not show one’s character ‘but reveal: his reputa- tion. Woodrow Wilson said: “To conquef'with atins is ™to make only a°temporary’ ¢onquest; conquer*the world ‘by earning it’s esteem ‘is 2 permanent conques' Morality is more than just listen- ing to the conscience and Peact- ing with the will—it proves. “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he”. THIRD: The physical body. Paul says, “Ye are not your own, ye are bought with a price”. Just how many rounds you can stay in the ring with one stronger than you are; isn’ the point, but know- ing that not a single person de- sires that you be anything short in your town is worthwhile. Life is a bigger game than basketball or football. Life’s greatest chal- lenge is to “Keep Physically Fit”, to be healthy and happy. FOURTH: The spiritual na. ture of vouth. “Remember no’ thy Creator in the days of thy youth” ‘(Ectles. 12:1).
