Thomas Kadlec died in Memorial hospital, Woodstock THE GOOD WORD fr°m the fiibk The quick journey into Egypt to escape the evil intentions of Herod is an example of the humble faith of Joseph He did not question, he did not ask why, nor did he delay. With the light of dawn, he took Mary and the child and followed instructions. Joseph might have found it difficult to believe anyone would wish harm to the child; that a king would show interest in a babe born in a simple stable seemed a bit far-fetched. Nonetheless, Joseph, the chosen protector of Jesus and"Mary, performed his role well. * i Few of us have the faith of a Joseph. Even Peter, the strong, resolute disciple who followed Christ to the very edge of Calvary, often evidenced doubt, sometimes even questioned the wisdom of his teacher. Many of us do likewise. Our faith does not require the strength of a Joseph or a Peter, but we must understand it is somehow measured in the eyes of the Lord. Attend the Church of your choice this Sunday. Necessity Inspires Cookbook Ncccssitv has often been called the mother of inven­ tion. For 83-year-old Ida Eriekson of Santa Rosa; Cal­ ifornia, necessity inspired a cookbook printed, in, large type for people with vision problems. *. Thirty years ago. Miss Eriekson contracted glau­ coma and found it increas­ ingly difficult to read- reci- pes printed i/ normal-sized type. But her active life kept Miss Eriekson from doing anything about her problem until three years ago. "Even after I started col­ lecting recipes 1 put off writ­ ing the book." she told a writer from The National Council on the Aging in a recent interview "But some­ thing inside me kept push­ ing and I felt I had to do it." Raised on a farm... nejfr Rush City, Minnesota, Miss Eriekson went to a country school and then on to Ot­ tawa University in Ottawa. Kansas. After graduation she taught high school be­ fore becoming a secretary at the University of Minne­ sota Mental Hygiene Clinic. When she moved to Cali­ fornia ten years ago, she took a job at the Santa Rosa Mental Hygiene Clinic and worked there until she re­ tired. The first evidence of her desire to help others sur­ faced then, as she joined VISTA and taught typing. English and spelling in com­ munity centers in Norfolk. Va.. for two years. Back in Santa Rosa. Miss Eriekson started compiling recipes for the book she felt she hacfto write. "I'd seen other books with large print," Miss Eriekson said, "but they were for gourmet cooks and had a lot of fancy recipes. What I had in mind was a book with low-cost, tasty recipes that can be used for everyday cooking." In 1975, a small pub­ lisher in Willmar, Minne­ sota brought out the first edition of "Loc*k n' Cook." The book has recently had a second printing and now includes a "five-day mental diet," bits of common sense advice users of the cook- insight bv Gerrv Johnson when by Larry Swaim JOY - IN YOUR LIFE By Larry Swaim Many people do not understand that there is a vast difference between joy and pleasure. In our day the two are often confused. Pleasure is dependent u p»o n circumstances, joy is i n d e p e n d e n t o f circumstances. Pleasure is a relationship between human beings; joy is a relationship between man and his Maker. Pleasure is horizontal; it reaches from man to man. Joy is vertical; it reaches from man to God. In our day and time we have come to believe that pleasure is all important. We seek it at every point. We spend thousands of dollars on entertainment, seeking newer a n d b i g g e r t h r i l l s a n d pleasure, thinking this will bring real enjoyment to our lives. We have enthroned the, God of materialism thinking this will bring real pleasure, and in a way it will, but it is only momentary pleasure. The difference is pleasure is for the moment and joy is eternal. Pleasure lasts just as l o n g a s t h e s e n s e s a r e stimulated. Joy gives a forever relationship. Not until we distinguish the difference between joy and pleasure can we ever have real happiness. True joy does not depend on external circumstances for there can be joy even in sorrow. Many times health is required for pleasure but it is not required for joy and, surprisningly, there can even be joy in death. If a person is a Christian and understands that he has a better life to look forward to, then there can be an internal joy even in the prescence of death. book can turn to they're feeling low. Outside of a few cities in Minnesota and California, Miss Erickson's book is available only from the pub­ lisher, but the response from people buying it has been unanimously favorable. "That makes me happier than if it was a bcst-seller." Miss Eriekson said. "Tm more concerned with pip­ ing people than with making money. I just wish rrtwt people knew such a book w as available " Are there plans for an­ other cookbook in the fu­ ture? "Right now I'm going to wait and see how this one does." Miss Eriekson said, and then, with a twinkle in her eye, added, "but you never know what will hap­ pen in the future, do you?" HASTINGS COLLEGE, the t'niverstty of Califor­ nia's law school in San Fran­ cisco, sponsors a program that gives retired professors an opportunity' to continue their careers- Each year. Hastings searches,the coun­ try for qualified law profes­ sors at>out to retire and in­ vites them to move to San Francisco and teach for as long as they like. Those who accept. are. given full professorships, full salary and all privileges. As a result of this unique re­ cruitment, a third of the fac­ ulty belongs to the "Sixty- five Club " So far, its mem-< bers have included a profes­ sor w ho w rote a textbook, a former New York Univer­ sity law ,school dean and a former U.S. Supreme Court Justice. Some faculty mem­ bers continue teaching into their 80s without interrup­ tion.

In some cases, professors have been signed up two or three years in advance of their retire­ ment to assure Hastings of their services.
