THE BOOK of Judges Is a bt‘rdze between the great period of conquest under Joshua and the beginnings of the monarchy under Saul.

It is filled with references to Israel's frequent defeats and humiliations. as well as the vie- torres available to Israel when God- appointed leaders were

, trusted and followed. It contains ‘ stroyed if Israel is to be preser- tmuch valuable hismric detail, jved. Instead.

In this age of technological wizardry never sneer at the past.

The Roman engineers who designed this aqueduct in Spain were brilliant men. Skill such as theirs, more than

fire might of Caesar's armies, fashioned the vast civilization of the Empire. In this age of scientific discovery nevor overlook the Truths long ago revealed.

Christianity was born in a remote province of ancient Rome. It suffered generations of persecution until it. converted even its persecutors. And when barbarians overran the Empire, our faith found a foothold in their

hearts as well.

RAYMONDVILLE, Tex. (AP) The pay is only $3 a week with ‘room and board. but 10 Texas tCollege studean have given up their summer vacations to build a church in this south Texas town.

In addition to building the church. the students conduc. ; revival services in the Ray-

mondville area and lead regular services here of the First Bap- tist Church and Primers Iglesia Bautista (Spanish for First Bap— tisr Church). It is a new struc- tur for the Spanish church that. they are building.

The students are members 013

the Baptist Stu d e n t Union which has 55,000 members on campuses of 68 Texas colleges.

"I wouldn't work this hard for money." says Jeff Crossland

. a senior history major at North Texas State University.

"Actually, there is pay in this to Crossland says. “but the pay isn't money; it's a richly rewarding experience."

The students—six young men and four girls—range in age from 19 to 25. They share what once was the First Baptist par- sonage. The boys sleep ln_bunk beds in one room and the girls share double beds in the rear of the house.

1GIRLS DO HOUSEWORK

r The boys handle most of the work on the church—often work- ing 15 hours a day—while the ,girls feed the crew and keep work clothes clean.

The digging of feet of ditches for the foundation was the hardest part of the job.

A professional was called to lay the first 4.000 concrete blocks, and the students stepped in to lay the final blocks and

do the rest of the work. , Rev. Bill McDaniel. pastor of First Baptist Church, is the

building foreman. He once was a carpenter. "1 came here 4'5: years ago

with the idea in mind of build-.

in: this church. and it has been a dream of mine." he. said. "It wouldn‘t have been possible

|without the help of the stu- dents."

The 400-by-150-f00t lot for the ,new church cost $6,000. Total ‘cost is about 822.000 The build- ing and land are worth about $4

U.S. Population Expert Sees Swing To Fovor Of Ontario

By CY FOX

MONTREAL tCPt — Thomas K. Burch. a population exoerrt from the United States. said1 “the longest standing relation 5 h i p between fertility rates for French — Catholic Que- bec and Anglo - Protestant Onv tario" apparently is being re- versed in Ontario's favor.

He told the annual convention of the American Sociological Association more data and closer analysis are needed but iindications are that "the rFrench - Canadian population of Quebec no longer fits the long-standing and still current image of the rural high - fer- tility community."

Mr. Burch said that in 1962 “the total fertility rate for Que- ‘bec. which was 3.6. was lower than that for all Canada. which \3vas' 3.8 and that for Ontario,

.t.’

The figures signify the aver- age number of children a woman would have upon com- pletion of her fertility.

He said in Canada as in the

lUnited States “it is the I"l£-I1 Catholics who are pre - ently the high - fertility Ca IN)-

“In 196] slightly more than Iii) ‘per cent of the population of Quebec lived in cities of 100.000 population or greater.

3 New Mobile Pipelines Have Promise

LAKE LOUISE, Alta. 'CPt— Mobile pipelines offer an at- .tractive solution to movement

to 10.000.000 tons of solids in a year, Dr. R. P. Char- bonnier of Ottawa told the Do—

ence here. Dr. Charbounier. senior scien- . tific officer of the fuels and mining practice division of the department of mines and tech- nical surveys. said the main ad- vantage of the principle would be lower fixed investments. Dr. Charbonnier. w it 0 has studied the principle in France since 1. . said most solids now are transported overland by railways. But volved In laying heavy duty track and constructing bridges .and tunnels which may be used ‘ for only minutes each day limit their economic feasibility.

The mobile pipeline is a long ' narrow trough with a hinged lid which either rolls on tracks such ‘as a train or can be suspended ,on the monorail principle, be said. I T'ie driving energy is obtained jfrom numerous small electric intotors. spaced along the track
