Obviously, the organized sports come ir for the publicity because people every- where are interested in them to a degree, and you can’t write much of a story about five kids playing a game of scrub or a hall full of people shooting pin-ball games. It is nevertheless true, as commercial oper: tors: have learned, that the great Y n of the people are irterested, first, in a ‘ game Where they can participate rather i than watch; and second, in games which veal be seen or played without advance ‘thought or preparation. As another example, in many indus- trial cities where there are baseball dia- monds, workmen will rush to the field at bn sound of the 5 o’clock whistle, grab up bats and balls and wind up the game with 20 players on each team and_ hundreds cheering them on. j There is a great field in Key West or | anywhere else for organized sports. There | also is a good field along unorganized | lines for the people who like a place where they can kick a football, hit a baseball, do a | little bowling or knock the stuffing out of a punching bag when the mood strikes. In a thoughtful editorial, the Ham- mond, Louisiana, Vindicator says: “Our | attention was called to a ‘small matter’ con- | cerning taxes paid by railroads and trucks We are amazed over the great difference | in the total sums paid by the carriers. For instance, in a certain Tennessee county, railroads paid in taxes during 1940 the sum | of $43,354.75, while trucks managed to pay $147.78. The state of Tennessee collected | from railroads $2,546,503 in taxes, and trucks got by with $30,340 for operating in the state. The railroads are the heaviest contributors, perhaps, in three-fourths of the parishes of Louisiana, while the trucks pay in proportion an insignificant sum. . . We should not smite the hand that is feed- ing us. The railroad deserves what ton- nage it is possible to give it.” Last year the railroads paid more than | $400,000,000 in taxes. Practically every town, county and school district, to say t nothing of the states and the Federal gov- ernment, shared. That money wasn’t spent ombledasethment to provide tracks for the -vattomds.; It was spent for police depart- { ments; forfire protection, for roads and | street$, far; chools, and for all the thousand and one pibblic services beneficial to all the people. These tax payments are vitally im- portant any time. But in times like the present, with government expenses reach- ing unprecedented heights, they are vital. Every dollar contributed by the railroads in taxes is a dollar saved the rest of us. And it is such industries as the railroads, which have helped build and maintain our nation, that will be major contributors to the cost of the defense program. GUNS AHEAD OF SCHEDULE The defense program is getting along better thangmest Americans suspect even f it is not performing the miracle as fast asi we think. this industrial nation can do thepot Th reported t otfler day the Pittsburgh district h@ production of the first t gun, a full month ad of schedule.

July. 1g of THE KEY WEST CITIZEN RELIGION OF. LIFE | By REV. TED M. JONES, Pastor of First Baptist Chureh iicord crowds thronged Churches last Sunday. said, “’Twas Easter”. But what of “Eastertide”, the forty days following the resurrection of Christ from the grave? It was during such time, that He ap- peared eleven times to those that knew Him and left us° an un: doubted proof of His incarna- tion. To me each Lord's Day should be an Easter, and each six days that follow should compose an EastertiJe. If we accept the Protestant or the Catholic view of the Lord’s Day then each first day of the week is a “Memorial Day”, of Christ’s resurrection, and we should reverence it as we do the name of “Jesus”. Then, during each week we _ should strive to keep the “Golden Rules” arid lead our friends to a closer relationshin with Him who lived, died, was buried, and then became victorious over the grave, that we might live more abundantly here on ¢erth and hereafter in the celestial place net made with hands. While we live in the, age of the greatest thinkers. the world suffers shamefully the blunt of war, and strikes, and confusion, all because we have become careless, and because we cannot see God, and because we fail to do a small bit of simple reason- in? From a pastor’s simple obser- vation: I have found that my non- Christian associates remain non- Christian, not kecause they do not believe, but bceause they have become stubborn and~ re- bellious, having picked up some the Someone FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 527 William Street Rev.

P weno, unsound ideas from side-line gos- sip centers and refuse to reason with God. God’s prophet, Isaiah, quotes God in the prelude. to his bcok when he-said, “Come, now, and let us reason together” (Isa. 1547). In a conversation with one of the government's uniform men the other day. he said, “I refuse, always, to argue religion or poli- tics”, and thus with such a state-' ment I fear many have shut themselves up from even think- ing about religion, spirituality or even God. Now, while no one is arguing with you, give your- self a fair test, and from your religious knowledge, whether it be great or small, reason with yourself and God quietly and de- cide whether you give your Creator enough of your time, tal- ents and ucefulness. No, I’m not trying t> argue with vou, all I} desire you to do is some spiritual thinking and reasoning, which may be of great benefit to you. Even as Jesus died on a cross, “It is appointed unto man once to die”. Is death to vou arid end barren? Is it mythical? Or @oes it have a real meaning, in faith and hone and merey lift you out of a cold, dark grave and set you upon a throne with God? The warning, “Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves,—for veng- eance -is mine and I will repay. saith the Lord” (Rom .12:19). Re- members tle while, and when we find God’s confidence we would wish that every day had the meaning of Easter that we might “At the Name of Jesus every knee should bow” (Phil. 2:10). ‘FLEMING S1HEET METHODIST i (Uptown) CHURCH Fleming at William Street Rev.
