Women's Fellowship Of AbbeyUCC Meets Members of the Women's Fellowship of the Abbey Reformed Church, Huntingdon, gathered at the Joseph Mcllroy home, 405 Church Street, Huntingdon, Wednesday evening, August 28. The meeting opened with hymns and a prayer in keeping with the theme, We the Keepers of the Faith. It was a study of the early keepers of'the earth, the Indians, who are the only people that worship the ground; the ground that gives them their homes. Six leading editors of six religious magazines, in their search for the most influential Christian of today, chose eleven. One was a Sioux, Vine Deliors, the best known Indian intellectual in the United States.

He wrote that after hearing of a river running through Cleveland so polluted that it occasionally caught fire he conceded that whites made better use of the land. What Indian would have thought of creating an inflammable river? heasked.

Ross. Sheeder of Bedford R.D. 1. Brook is in first grade at the Defiance Elementary School. A birthday party will mark this birthday for the Indians.

Since 1834, a policy according preference to Indians in the Indian service has been followed. It was recommended by the high court that participation of Indians should be followed in their own self-government and that the negative effort of non-Indians administering matters that affect Indian tribal life should be reduced and that more Indians should participate. A resume of Red Jacket, Seneca Chief and great orator of six nations followed. A young missionary named Cram was sent to the Indians. They did not wish him to stay and at a council held Buffalo, N.

Y. Red Jacket replied to the missionary's speech and told him why the Indians did not wish him to stay. First, addressing Cram as friend and brother, Red Jacket said they should meet together, that their God had provided all things for home and food, The white man has taken their land and now wished to force his religion on them. Red Jacket wished to be Cram's friend, but Cram refused saying there was no fellowship or religion between them. Today, much needs to be done to reconstruct Indian communities and secure the Indians' future in America.

The United Church of Christ determines the programs for Indians in 21 churches in Wisconsin and the Dakotas. Discussion followed and the Abbey Women enjoyed seeing a picture of the Winnebago United Church of Christ, Black River Falls, Wisconsin, which the fellowship helped to build. Mrs. Robert Clark gave a report of the Church Retirement Center, Martinsburg. The women of Abbey Church will help with the bazaar to be held at the home on October 17.

Other groups will be in charge on October 18 and 19. Mrs. Clark paid the Fellowship's commitment of $30 to the beauty shop at the home for supplies. Joseph Mcllroy gave cajis of English mints to be sold at the gift shop, Mrs. Catherine Oliver contributed 49 cosmetic articles to be used as birthday and bingo gifts and Mrs.

Mary Hoover donated casseroles to be used in the kitchen. Take Flower Break" During National Week America's homes, offices, schools and factories will have an added touch of brightness during National Flower Week, September 15-21, when the nation's 26,000 retail florists do their part to see there's a fresh, colorful bloom in every vase, according to the Society of American Florists. Florists in almost every comunity of the nation will organize special events to celebrate our country's abundance of floral resources. A number of cities will mark the occasion with special mayoral declarations honoring flowers and plants for the beauty and gracefulness which they add to our daily lives. National Flower Week is a natural outgrowth of our nation's commitment to beauty, as well as to growth and technology, which was recognized as early as 1901 when the U.S.

Government chartered the Society of American Florists, "A salute to flowers is a salute to our nation's heritage of appreciation for the intrinsic value and beauty of our natural resources," said a Society spokesman. "Even the most urban dweller can brighten his city apartment with the natural form and grace provided by a handful of flowers" Pause a moment during National Flower Week to reflect on the enjoyment which flowers and plants have given the world throughout the ages. Take a "flower break" and brighten your world. CELEBRATING HIS FOURTH birthday today is this handsome young lad, Jamie Cornelius. He is the son of James and Nina Cornelius of Kistler.
