It's display advertising, selling, promoting, layouts in the making, running here and there to get an ad; Building pages until you can't see straight; Answering the phone until is becomes an automatic reflex whenever or wherever you hear a phone ring A newspaper is talking to an irate customer and smiling when you know you're being abused; It's volunteering to help when you're too tired to move, Wanting to explode at someone because you know you're right, but backing down politely for the sake of the newspaper; It's people interchanging thoughts and ideas, dreams and beliefs. It's a proofreader's agony. A reporter's grief. An editor's baby, An owner's pride; It can be the backbone of the people or a shot in the dark; It's mainly the satisfaction of a lot of people who care enough to do the best they know how to get the "new impartially without fear or favor" to the ever anxious readers; And it comes eut than JUST a newspaper; It s part of yi I U mil j THE MADISON COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY has on display work by three young men.

Health Clinic Schedule Sunday School Lesson ' i PREPARING THE WAY ' f . " International Sunday School Lesson for December 8,1974 Scripture: Malachi 3:1-4; Matthew 3:1-12; John 1:6-8, 19-28 By The Reverend John W. Wenberg, Jr. - ' If we have ever been involved in a play or dramatic pre sentation, we know how important it is for everything to be properly prepared, rehearsed and publicized. This is true of most of the things we do in life so much depends on our preparation if something we plan to do will be successful. Likewise, there was a stage set for the coming of Jesus. We art reminded that Jesus came "in the fulness of time." That is to say, when things were ready. For several centuries Israel looked forward to a time when God would establish a new order through a Messiah or anointed one. The Gospel of Matthew portrays the ministry of John the Baptist as that of a messanger who proclaimed the coming of the Messiah. Malachi 3:1 speaks of God sending a mes senger who would prepare the way for the coming of the kingdom or God, and John is also portrayed as the prophet Elijah returned. The message of John is that of repentance for judgment was at hand, and John's message is a universal message it is meant for all people. Perhaps we can take a larger view to see the part re pentance plays in the drama of the coming of Christ. Only as wc are sorry for our sinfulness will we be able to recog nize Jesus as the Messiah, the one who lives the life of servanthood rather than royal majesty. Only as we become aware of our imperfection can we receive Him as lord and Savior. The Pharisees and Sadducees to whom John spoke could not see their own need and therefore could not re ceive Christ. Confession and a contrite heart are part of the prepara tion for accepting Christ as Lord. He will come to us only as the stage is set.
