Murphy Sr., Alderson, and Ruth Murphy, Noxen Road, assigned j Army's 16-month tour of Euro) to the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Kty., presently home on leave, an- nounced SSG. Lon G. Hagg, local army representative. Warrant Officer Murphy is a native of the Back Mountain Lehman High School in 1968 and attended Penn State before of three years.

SSG Hagg stated that Mr. Murphy is representing the 101st Airborne Division in conjunction with the army’s new ‘‘unit of choice’ enlistment option. by Rev. Charles H. Gilbert Now ‘‘where shall my won- dering soul pegin?’’ So goes one of Charles Wesley’s hymns, not one of the most popular of hymns, for I suspect that we do . not greatly wonder in our souls! But when I think over recent experiences I do wonder just where to tell. my Typewriter “which to begin with. Certainly the sight of a rose- breasted grosbeak in and around our bird feeder for the ‘most of one whole day is something to wonder at. No, it “was not a towhee bird which itself is a thing of loveliness in its orange and black and white feathers. But the towhee is not a stranger around here. The rose- breasted grosbeak is a com- _ paratively rare visitor and a startling bright dress. Grosbeak in size and in type of beak for eating sunflower seeds, it has black and white contrasting feathers, but its whole front a < brilliant red. You know how bright red draws attention at once. Red is listed as the liturgical color for Pentecost Sunday, 8 hence it has been in my mind © recently. The Sunday I was © down to preach at the West - Pittston Congregational Church was a Sunday when I was preaching not on the usual - Pentecost story of the coming of ~ tongues of fire on the gathered followers of the recently slain . Leader, but on the story of his breathing on those followers “Receive _ ye the Holy Spirit.” Only in my reading of this account from : John’s gospel in the Greek I almost always think of him as saying ‘‘Receive the Holy Breath!” For breath and spirit are the same word in Greek. And we have a hymn with the words‘ ‘Breathe on me, Breath of God”’. I am fond of the tune in Fort the organist who told me that the church bulletin was already ~ all printed up I expressed the «wish that somehow I could use the tune to those words familiar tome for my sermon of the next day. But there seemed no way to work it in. But when the time came for the pastoral prayer to be prefaced by a hymn tune by the organist, what should come to my ears with my head bowed waiting to open my mouth in prayer but that hymn tune which she had hunted up in an old Methodist hymnal and which she knew that at least I could not fail to recognize it as “Breathe on me Breath of God”! That is what I call an organist’s ‘feel’ for the service in which she has so vital a part. . Then my soul, in closest linkage with my stomach, also drew delight from the fact that Cathy was all poised to extract juice from rhubarb. So I went to ‘the garden where the good earth had pushed up a good supply of stalks and brought in enough so that after I had sliced the stalks thin she made up and canned 13 quarts of the juice from which all fibers had been strained out. This: makes a delicious ~ beverage which my low-residue diet sheet would approve of. Cathy has arrived at the best proportions of sugar, water and juice to make it right. One day Cathy got a phone call from Mrs. Rolla Schweitser to the effect that her very special cactus was now loaded with blooms and that Cathy could come and get pictures of them. Mrs. Schweitser operates a small greenhouse down near the Trucksville Carverton road forks. So Cathy went and took some pictures and then one day flowers in reckless profusion. It would have been a treat to see just one such bloom, but here was a large plant just loaded! One can not withhold a great big Oh-oh-oh! Wax-like in texture, unimaginable pink! How shall my wondering soul express the emotions kindled by such beauty? I don’t know! I just don’t know! to tell my admiration of the high degree of creative thought and writing that I was privileged to read and the music to hear from a friend of ours, Rosendo Santos. Mr. Santos, orginally from the Philippines, is head of the theory and percussion department of Wilkes College. His wife Harriet has been often arider in the car pool Catherine operates during Oratorio season, and this has made them both friends of the family. When Cathy and I went to Elm Park Church to attend one of the concert series it was to hear, among other things, a special creative production of Dawn of Hope. Before any of the concert began I had read ithe words of DAWN OF HOPE and my innards got a charge of wonder at how a human being in the midst of all the excitements of college life could ever find a tower room high enough to withdraw far enough from distractions to let his creative abilities have a chance to do a thing like this. In addition to the words there was the music from this percussionist soul as well. I could understand the writing of words much more than I could understand the production of music which required notes and instrumentation to perform. The work is an essay on the Death of Love, when the chorus sings “When all the stains of red have washed away from troubled lands; love will come back to life.” And again in the Rape of the Seasons there is moaning of ‘Mountains flat- tened, turned to highways, where death awaits speed demons to embrace...the world ended since it began.” And the tenor soloist sings as “I'm the silent stranger...I dwell in every young man’s heart for I am the spirit of youth.” And the chorus sings, ‘‘Oh, spirit, dwell forever, don’t let them go astray.” And at the end when the soloist sings, “Youth may fall, but when they get up, they’re stronger, like a great fortress wall. Thus there is the “Dawn of Hope.” Thank God for the final op- timism! On the day when I parked in front of the foot doctor’s office in Pittston and cranked down two nickels which I thought would satisfy the hungry police I went inside for a treatment. Alas, when I came out I had a ticket and so had to make a contribution to the City’s ever- recurring needs for money! When I got home and had my nap Catherine returned from her trip to Kingston to an eye doctor. At a friend’s house she parked, not noticing it was/the City’s day to sweep its streets. When she came out she, too, had a ticket and made twice the size contribution to that City’s ever- recurring ‘need for new brooms and street-cleaning equipment! Ah me, and Ah us! Yet it has been a good day, a good week, with many good stores for our souls. ‘‘Where shall my wondering soul begin,” and ‘Where shall my wondering soul ever cease wondering!” Av HAM SLICES 39° FULLY TENDER TASTY LANCASTER BRAND ROASTING CHICKENS CAMECO BRAND IMPORTED DANISH FULLY COOKED CANNED HAMS SLICED MEDIUM SIZE PINK S BACON .... .... 31/40 COUNT HRIMP VALLEE KING BY THE PIECE lia Lao al a0 w. 55C il Ta 1- i > § 9¢ . 49¢ SAVE 6c—IDEAL SWEET 6 10 7-lb. avg. er, 65° + 89° c 25349 19-Lb.
