For each of the past 25 years, Made moiselle has conferred “Merit Awards” on young women of great talent. Mademoiselle spotted Carson Meddlers, Julie Harris and Agnes de Mil le, for instance, well before they reached national prominence. “Our 1970 awards honor seven concerned young women for their outstanding contributions towards effective and meaning ful changes while working with in the system,” said Made moiselle ’ s editor -in -ch ie f. In addition to the seven Young Women of the Year, there is a special symboilic Mademoisel le Award to all the women of Women’s Lib.

Comment ing about her background, Ms. Edey says, “We lived in a rural part of Long Island, and 1 spent a lot of my time in the woods. It was a fast growing area, and 1 saw a lot of land bulldozed, which may explain why 1 became a radical con servationist at a very young age.” I aw students Peggy Cooper, 24, is the organizer and found er of the first public profes sional training for young inner city people in the arts (dance, theater, visual arts, film) in Was! gton, D.

We are shocked at the deeds of sex-mad crimials who make it unsafe for women to walk the streets at night, but our women continue to pay less and less heed to the principles of modesty and decency that would contribute so greatly to their safety. Most of aB, we have disre garded the Word of God. No longer does the Bible hold the first place in our homes. It rather lies gathering dust while our moral and spiritual strength is dissipated by pursuing pleas ures that fail to bring true happiness or .satisfaction.

He says; “Fools make a mock of sin” (Prov. 14:9), for, not only does sin in its very nature break down, rather than build up, but as responsible creatures sinners will one day have to give an account of their conduct to the God who created them. To look at the brighter side, we may all rejoice in another indication that sin is no joke to God. St. Paul points it out in I Cor. 15:3. where he says; “Christ died for our sins.” Christ knew the horrible results of sin and the dreadful penalty whlcl: justice must visit upon it. Yes, and He also knew that “all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Pom. 3:23) and in infinite love He left the glories of heaven and stooped to bear the disgrace and penal ty for sin Himself! “Christ. . . hath once suffered for sins, the Just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God” (I Pet. 3:18) and those who come to know God through faith in Christ experience peace and joy which this world can never afford. potential material our source.” Florette Angel, 27, has changed the lives of about 300 Appalachian women. By de veloping the Mountain Artisans project, which makes patchwork clothes, quilts, and pollows, she has raised their average hour ly income from 25d to $2, and has created an environment that fosters pride in themselves and their heritage. In doing so, she has led them io preserve the rapidly-dying crafts tradition of patchwork. Ms. Angel com ments, “I survive by believ ing in more ti an just existing. I love being alive--being able to love, to give, to believe, to think--and to hurt, to care. ..” Eva Jefferson, 21, was one of four students who debated Vice President Agnew on The David Frost Show last fall. As President of Northwestern Uni versity’s student association, she is credited with keeping student peace at Northwestern during the spring 1970 campus wars; she was also a witness before the Scranton Commis sion on “student unrest”. She explains her involvement, “I feel an obligation to struggle. I feel I’m part of a continuum, and that each generation has to make life easier for the next.” MEDITATION A SERMONETTE BY COLIN DOUGLAS “Commune with your own heart. . .and be stilV’ Psalms 4:4. Whenever you find yourself in a tense and nervous state of mind, do not try to justify it by pointing the finger of blame toward the actions or attitudes of other persons, or by cail~ ing to mind the unpleasant as pects of your life. Also, do not depreciate yourself by feeling as you do. There are times in every per son’s experience when he has allowed tension to build up with in and he feels so resistant smd antagonistic that he cannot think clearly or function efficiently. If you are troubled within your mind, make a supreme effort to open your mind and heart to the harmonizing power and love of God. Affirm over and over to yourself that God is in charge of you and your affairs until you have completely stilled other thoughts and feelings, un til you begin to feel the warm th of God’s love in your heart. Relax and consciously givevour mind and heart over to the har monizing power of God's love. Your mind will grow quiet, your heart will fill with peace, your powers will gather in contrur tive strength and purpose. The awareness of God's pre sence and power in our life makes us strong and unafraid. Faith in Him gives us confid ence. purpose, poise, and as surance that all is well. It is not possible for us to be in wardly fearful or to feel tense and nervous and stir have faith in God at the same time. And so, regardless of the demands made upon us, we can meet them courageously and effici ently with trust in Him. Should some situation that seems diffi cult arise in our life, we can depend upon God to give us the wisdom and the courage, and the strength to meet it success fully and happily.
