HELP WANTED
by Rev. Charles H. Gilbert
For a few weeks we have had
no evening grosbeaks on our
feeder. Last Sunday they came,
a dozen or so. In the days when
they used to come it would be as
high as 30 at a time, some in the
trees, others filling their crops
on the feeder. How they do
enjoy sunflower seeds! They do
not shovel them in by scoops as
the blue jays are often in the
habit of doing. Theirs is a more
deliberate method like the
cardinals, taking a seed and
chewing it as though they had a
set of teeth in their jaws! Well,
these grosbeaks are a rather
handsome bird. I call them the
“golden boys.” I used to be able
to hear their chatter and
chirping, but those tones now
are gone from me, so they are
always silent feeders to me!
It has seemed a little like late
spring with the snows and ice
melting, raising the pond level
to the point of sending its waters
over the low meadow to rest
against the front bank beneath
our parking lot. Nevertheless I
do not think I need to get our
lawn mower out again, for
although the grass is a rich
green it is not growing tall as it
will when spring really gets
here. With the warmer weather
brings the remark, “Well, that
makes a day less for winter’s
cold to chill us to the bone.” We
can stand a mild winter once in
awhile. Thanksgiving snow is

THE DALLAS POST, DEC. 16, 1971
My Typewriter Talks
the crowd appreciated it.
My seat in the center section
of the balcony gave me a fine
location to hear it at its best. On
my lap I held my copy of the
oratorio which I bought about 55
years ago when I was in school
in Boston and began rehearsing
with a choral group there. I
could not go all the way through
at that time for my health was
not good and I had to drop out.
But I do recall that in one place
at least the tenor part soared to
an A above the staff. At the
house where I was living I tried
to reach that by myself at the
piano and could barely squeak.
But when I saw the note coming
toward me in the chorus I
soared up to it, much to my own
surprise. I was in the tenor
section, not by virtue of any
audition but merely because
tenors of any kind were in short
supply even in those days. It
sort of warmed my heart to
think that here in Irem Temple I
could follow the score in my 55
year old book. For Catherine
had meanwhile bought herself a
new copy and had done ex-
tensive repairs on my antique
copy. -
But I had forgotten to bring
my pocket flashlight with me
and when the house-lights went
down I was in the dark!
This time of year brings with
it certain situations that make
the heart tender. I follow the
custom I had begun with Ruth
when I used to have her open
and read the Christmas
greetings and pass them over to
me. That way we both got a
chance at what was in the let-
ters of greetings. Only now it is
Catherine and I doing the same
thing. What moving things are
in a typical stack of cards and
letters!
For instance, Dottie’s letter
was addressed to Cathy but did
not need to be a secret. For she
asked Cathy to take some of her
(Dottie’s) money and get
something for Christmas for
Daddy, and again for Daddy to
get something for Cathy with
that money.
Dottie will be visiting some
friends in another part of her
country for Christmas. So she
will be having a good time too.
Then came a greeting letter
from the Maine Federated
Church where I served as
pastor of Methodist and
Congregational societies for
over eight years before moving
to Pittston. For the past seven
years the Federated church has
been served by a
Congregational pastor who now
has accepted a call to a
- Congregational church several
miles away. That means the
Federated church will be
calling a Methodist pastor to

letter that came last week
announced that the Rev. Wilton
Dubrick of the Fairview
Methodist church in
Binghamton has accepted an
invitation to become the pastor
of the Maine Federated Church.
I think that will make a fine
arrangement and I know he will
be happy with those fine people
and I am sure they will also
enjoy him. So that was good
news coming to us in the stack
of letters.
Only there was a saddening
note in it of news we had not yet
heard. The husband of the lady

How natural it is to hear the
children of Mt. Zion sing the
songs that their fathers and
mothers sang at this time of
year back when they were
children. How fortunate I am
that I carry the songs of both
generations in my memory!
God bless them not only of Mt.
Zion but also all around this
pastoral parish of Carverton
and Orange. And for that
matter, all you readers of the
Back Mountain, many of you
also I remember from way back
when!

Another letter came from one Jw
of our wonderful friends up ’
there telling that her grandson
whom I baptized as an infant
had been in the army but due to
trouble in his neck had been
placed in desk service and
advised to seek a medical }
discharge which he did. Good Jp
gracious! That baby, baptized,
grown up, in the army and out of

Remember
Wednesday's
How 200-million of us
People,
can keep 9-million of them alive this winter.
On Wednesday, November 3, 1971, students
in high schools and colleges across the country
went hungry.
The money they would normally have spent
to feed themselves was instead donated to the
innocent victims of the East Pakistani civil strife
who are clinging desperately to life on the wet
and windy plains of West Bengal, India.
Because of complicated political entanglements,
international governments cannot act in time
to save them. But if help doesn’t come soon,
many of these refugees won't make it through
the winter.
So the ‘burden rests on us. The people. This time
our burden is really an opportunity. A great
opportunity to make the world take notice that
the people, working together, have the power to
make things happen. Big things that governments
just don't seem to have enough time for.
Needless to say, the proceeds from that
Wednesday alone weren't nearly enough. To
cffectively stop the dying, we need unparalleled
and continuing support. Hence, the Wednesday's
Pcople Movement.
But I gave at the last disaster
It’s been a big, grisly year for disasters.
A typhoon slamming into a coastline, wiping out
a year's crops. An army warring on a land,
destroying a populace. A monsoon flood
decimating already squalid refugee camps.
Disasters like these are dreadful enough when
they occur in scattered reaches of the globe.
But all of these things happened in one place:
the area of East Pakistan.
To one people: Wednesday's People.
Project Relief is a voluntary organization. It
Their unnecessary suffering will go down in
history as the most massive tide of
human degradation in modern times.
Money isn’t everything...
imagination counts.
Raising money to provide life-
supporting relief to these people is, of
course, our prime concern. But you
don’t necessarily have to dip into your pocket ~~
to make a meaningful contribution.
Often, a people’s imagination can generate more
moncy than their wallets can. We Americans
have a vast repertoire of talents and abilities—
many of which can be imaginatively used to
generate both dollars and needed materials. Here
are a few examples of the things people can do
when they put their minds to it.
* Give a benefit school play, a concert, or any
kind of entertainment. (In Providence, 450
people attended a 572 hour benefit rock
concert which took just two days to organize.
They raised $450.)
* Hold a garage sale, a rummage sale, any kind
of sale. (A New England housewife raised
$750 in two weekend rummage sales.)
© Sponsor a paper drive, a bottle drive, a car
wash or something like that. (Several service
stations in Harrisburg, Pa. are holding car
washes every weekend.)
¢ Reproduce this ad and send it to your friends
or post it in your school, religious building or
meeting hall. (Students at the University of
Hawaii did just that and it spurred
campus-wide concern and contributions. )
© Better yet, ask your local newspaper to run
this ad. (If you're reading this in Atlanta, it’
because a local lady did just that.) ;
¢ Then there's the salesman from
San Francisco who made 1100
copies of our first ad to send
to friends and customers
with his Christmas cards.
(You can multiply your
contribution and concern
by doing the same thing.
In fact, we'll be happy to
send you smaller versions
of this page.)
* And in New England,
another businessman
contributed by
matching the amount
collected by the
employees of his
printing firm.

* If you're someone who's in the limelight, you
can help by just talking about the plight of
Wednesday's People. { Twenty-four Senators
and Congressmen have already expressed
their concern.)
* Now that the holidays are upon us, perhaps
your club or religious group can earmark the
proceeds of one of its holiday events to aid
Wednesday's People. (In Milwaukee, for
instance, there’s an art sale coming
up and in Vermont, someone's having a
church-sponsored rummage sale.)
Meanwhile, the killing ground is prepared.
To call off the obliteration of a people calls for
an immediate and unprecedented spree of
generosity and involvement
Whatever you can do will help. If you can
generate only a dollar, you'll help keep a dying
refugee alive for a whole month.
