When tavern keepers started
installing television sets in their
businesses to attract customers.
Rev. Darrell C. Richardson of
Covington, Ky., feared they may
encourage some of his young
people to take the drink habit.
Immediately he resolved to trade
blows, tit for tat, with this com
petition to the way of life he
preaches from one of the city’s
Baptist pulpits.
Now, thanks to Pastor Rich
ardson and members of the Fort
Mitchell Baptist Church, the
city’s youth can view their tele
vision shows in the church’s re
creation hall. It is believed to
be the first television set used
in the youth recreation programs
of American churches.
Pastor Richardson, himself an
athlete, has a well rounded recre
ation program — including, cur
rently, eight basketball teams —
“to help our young people have
a good wholesome time.”^—Bap
tist Press.
In the Night
The night was growing old
As she trudged through snow
and sleet;
Her nose was long and cold.
And her shoes were full of feet.
