DISCUSSES “BREAD” God fed the children of Israel while journeying through the wilderness with manna from heaven. This was for bodily nourishment. ing Bread into the world for all j}who may wish to enjoy “eating” jthe bread of life. This (Jesus Christ) is for eternal spiritual nourishment. Thus opens the; jsecond part of W. J. R.’s article; ‘on Spiritual Foods. Our contri juting reader first gave us “Milk”, pec eved in this column Monday* |The second part follows: & Bread F “The Lord Jesus Christ, in ad. minded them how His Father had fed with manna the children of Israel (commentators estimate be- tween 2,400,000 and 3,000,000 peo- ;ple in all) during their forty years journey through the wilderness. This was the bread from heaven (John 6:31), and this heavenly | food satisfied their bodily needs day by day as they gathered it from the ground. Then He told them, ‘My father giveth you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world . . . I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.’ (John 6:32-35.) God’s true bread, from heaven truly satisfies our spiritual needs as we enjoy it day by, day,.and it is our priv- ilege to be,enjgying our!Lord' Je; sus Christ each and: every day'‘of our whole life’s journey. We sometimes sing, ‘I know He is Wonderful; I know He is Wonder- ful; for He saves and He keeps and He satisfies; I know He is Wonderful.’ “Manna was a type of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Bread of Life. As we consider the qualities of the manna we find they definite- ly correspond with qualities and attributes of our Lord Jesus. Christ. for us by five-letter words—it was round, white, small, sweet honey. “ROUND—Christ is _ eternal. ‘Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.’ (He- brews 13:8.) “WHITE—My beloved is white and ruddy, the chiefest among ten thousand.’ (Song of Solomon 5:10.) The word ‘white’ here used comes from the Hebrew root word meaning ‘dazzling white’. And truly when we behold Him with the eyes of faith ‘the things of this earth grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace.’ Boni, Englewood, N.

This has! been a mighty friendly, happy; | place for a long time and this) sort af advice is about thesmost’ dangerous thing Chief Eisner, can listen to. | e ° MUST BE MATURE MAN When the new secretary of the: chamber of commerce is named at some future date there is one! thing which the directors should} watch and that is naming anyone} who is too young. You can swing the pendulum back too far! The! Senior Chamber must never be dike the Junior Chamber which is; very: fine|;in its ‘sphere as a »proving ‘grownd-for young, agile ‘minds but mot bfor:eareful con- sideration; neeessary in the .Sen-| ior) Chamber. For instance, sup- pose you chose some young -fel-| low, bright. and ambitious, to head the chamber and the other choice was a man-like David King. Whom would you pick? The answer is obvious. King would get the Chamber to moving right} along. Thus I believe that a wide- awake man of say over 40 should be chosen. This man should also be a writer since this is one of the principal needs of the Chamber. ° ° KNOCK OUT SCHISM Here is the biggest single need of the Chamber and that is to knock the socks: out of this schism which is rapidly widen-| ing the city and causing divided, effort. It has always existed and Hemingway clearly indicated it! in his very fine book, “To: Have And Have Not”. For a long time! there was no middle.class in Key West. It was either poor or rich. Now there is a strong middle class which puts us back in the American way of living. This middle class is predicated on the salaries of the Naval Station and) on the monies they made from} the, scores upon scores of. little; businesses which have sprung up and serve now the Navy and} later the Navy and the large} Tourist trade expected by next year. This class wants represent-| ation in-the Chamber. They must} get it at all costs. e e | DRAW DIVERSITY TOGETHER | Here is where your mature man must come in. These very! diverse elements must be drawn , together and made to feel that | the Chamber is a common bene-| fit. That the projects the Cham-} | ber puts its stamp ‘of approval upon is for the common good and 1 not for just a few. That its adver-| | tising is for all. That it is a live ; clearing house for the ideas of} bringing .more “commerce” to| the; city: These are. the: | points upon which the; present split are} based :and::thisy split is a very’ | nasty. one: It:will take ‘a reat leader,.a very mature man,’ to bring: these elements" together.

Let me repeat again the way the Queen candidates are to get their votes. For each book of votes she sells to the merchants she} ; collects $5 which she turns in to! the Stadium Committee and for which she is given 500 votes. This is a good way in which she can get an early start. Then after} | that her race is in the hands of} | her friends and the friends of the | oak backing her who go into} the various stores and when making a purchase ask for the blank votes according io the} amount of the purchase they] make. This will differ with the various stores. Those making} purchases then sign their candidates name across the top in the space provided and drop the votes in the boxes which,will be provided.

City Manager Dave King may not have the unanimous approval of the Key West citizenry but he certainly is climbing toward that goal. His ability to act swiftly, definitely and expertly on all questions he has faced since as- suming office has changed the minds or brought forth favorable comment from many who at first were absolutely against a city manager.

BURCH LIQUOR YIELDS $2.000,000 HSER STE RACE IN TAXES The liquor sale question has} been a “hot” one in Key West} for maay years. Tre pro’s and| con’s have been strong and r lentless.

While on the subject of liquor, we'll pass on these figures just released by the state bever- age director, James T. Vocelle. | During January of this year, the state collected a total of $2,034,- 401 in taxes on beer, wine and liquor. This reaped a harvest of $13,456,812 in taxes on liquor during the seven months of the fiscal year, beginning in July:of last year. This is a decided trénd: toward the consumption of more and more liquor. Make of it what you will but here are choice mor- sels for both sides of the argu- ment. e that every child that wishes / to enjoy the advantages of pose facilities can do so. An nouncement coming out of Tal hassee places further responsibi! ty on the shoulders of local au- | thorities for the continuance and} maintenance of the school lunch | rooms all over the state.

Present Federal assistance ends June 30, unless Congress decides to con-! tinue support. ° e SCHOOL LUNCH ROOM PROGRAM ! An article in The Citizen last jweek decried the overcrowded i 1 the Division Street Elementary School. Further, the conditions existing at this school, according to the contributed article, has caused the use of rooms in neigh- boring buildings. It has become !necessary to deprive teachers of a room for themselves and to dis- pense with the music. room. The lunch room question is a. most vital one. It-involves the health of our children.
