CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, Sept. 25, 1958 Two Kinds Of Lunacy From Washington comes word of a re- quest from a U.S. farmer who wants to set- tle on them moon. The farmer, in a letter lo the U.S. Bureau of Farm Management, asks growing corn. Bids for land on the moon, say to be allotted land on the moon suitable for officials of the bureau, are coming in at the rate of several each week, most of them from farmers. 5 : What the U.S. Bureau of Farm Manage- ment hasn't revealed is why farmers seem to be more intergsted than most people in set- want to escape from another form of lunacy right at home in the United States, After all, it doesn’t make much sense to farmers when they are subj d to 9 Is and all sorts of other restrictions as to the use they make of their farmlands, thanks to the vagaries of the, U.S. farm price support sy- stem. a Worth noting is the fact that nothing is said by the U.S. Bureau of Farm M Population Increase Big Factor In Retail Sales | THANKYOU Retail trade has been a major crease naturally caused a greater By E.G.0. certain given interest the little game of ‘Button, button, who's got the button’ that the village ‘fathers’ are playing with Celgar over the o! as to whether the farmer who wants to.grow corn on the moon expects Uncle Sam to -pay him high support prices for his crop. tling on the moon. Could be that they just TIMELESS A WEEKLY MESSAGE FROM THE CASTLEGAR MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION — By MISS La CLEMO TOPICS .., Samuel Rutherford once said, “MEN WANT. CHRIST CHEAP, THEY WANT HIM WITHOUT HIS CROSS BUT THE PRICE WILL NOT COME DOWN.” it was the same in the cpostle Paul’s doy, The les.p d Christ ified — but it was unto the Jews “a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness.” But unto those who accepted its challenge proved that “the Cross of Christ was the power of God.” During Christ’s earthly ministry many felt the touch of His mighty hand and the words of partion, wisdom and deliverance. However when the same hands were stretched forth beckoning man to accept the challenge “Take up thy cross and follow me’ the thronging multitude forsook him and fled as did the individuals who were qpproached on other occasions. Yes they wanted all that he would give them freely without the cross. There is nothing concerning the eternal plan and purpose of God that is not directly re- tated to,the Cross. It is fundamental to our, faith. Jesus spoke words preceding His sac rifice on Calvary’s Cross, “I am the WAY the the Columbia.
