U. OF ME. NEWS A record number of 1, 584 stu­

dents at the Orono campus of the University of Maine were named to the Dean's List, the university's scholastic · honor roll, for the 1969 spring sem­ester. In order to qualify for the Dean's List a student must attain a gr ade average of 3. 0 (B) in a 4. 0 grade scale.

Named to the Dean's List from Piscataquis County were: Norman Brewer, Brownville Jet. ; Rodney Bushway, Derby; Susan Pulkkinen, Guilford; Ja­niceBuzzeil, David Cook, Ti­mothy Griffin, George Hood , Charles Horne, Jr., Stephanie Howard, lviary Moore, Asa Pickard, all of Milo; and Lin­da Jackson, Mons on.

OUR NATIONAL BIRTHDAY by Pastor Carlton Cockey Special days at best are a heavy responsibility. Thisiscer­

tainly true on J·uly 4th Sunday. On this Sunday the church must speak to the nation and it must speak soberly and thoughtfully from God's Word. The message from the pulpit must be more thanflagwaving and making an eagle scream. The pastor must strike the deeper notes of patriotism and put spir itual founda­tions under this most important observance.

There is an interesting ceremony in Deut. 26 called the pre ­sentationoftheFirstFruits. Thisordinance was given to Israel early in its history. It was a day to remember the humble be­ginnings of the nation Israel under God. As an Israelite came to the Tabernacle with his offering he was instructed to say cer­tain words in his presentation. Reading the 5th through 11th ver­sesbrings to mind many parallels to our own national history.

God wanted his people to remember their humble beginniiigs. "A Syrian ready to perish was my father, and he went do"vn in­to Egypt, and sojourned there with a few, and became there ana­tion, great, mighty, and populous . " Over 300 years ago men started to come to these shores in a very thin stream. They struggled against many odds. In clue course of time they grew prosperous enough to alarm the mother country. The Declara ­tion of Independance sets forth many grievances against the mo­ther country. Verse 7 tells us what Israel did and he same thing happened here.

"And when we cried unto the Lord God of our fathers, the Lore heard our voice and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression: "Verse 9 gives the end result of :.'le deliver­ance, "Andhehathbroughtus into this place, and hathgivenus this land thatfloweth with milk and honey. "We were oppressed and we did cry out to God and God did deliver us.

we were under constant threat by the great powers in all our early history. The r eal revolution was a break with the whole political history of the world. Men are endowed by their Creator not by the state, with the rights to life and liberty. Government wasinstituted only to secure these rights. OurConstitutionwas the answer for the people in limiting government to this pur­pose. This produced hardy men who went forth to win a great land for our people.

At the presentation of the F i rst Fruits the man was to recog­nize his debt to the Living God. On our 193rd birthday let Amer­icabringitsrishesto God and dedicate its power to become the instrument of His purpose. Letus give thanks to God for our freedom which is rooted in our faith. Our Constitution placed severe limitations on government. The state actually had no­thing to give. It did not have the power to take from some and give to others. The people we:rP- forced to turn to themselves. The result! A self-reliant people ·were born and there followed a great outburst of creative human energy . .

In just [, few years as we count national years God has made us high above all nations. vVe have observed our national birth­day with picnics, parades. the flying of fla ~sand family get-to­gethers. May we learn to let the worship of God back into this important observance .

God was strongi.n oux· weakness. God blessed us. Now we b e ·­

gi n to take credit for our strength and prosperity. Let us hum­bly bow our heads on this day and confess to God, "A Syrian ready to perish was my father . "

cal data relating lo Federal individual income tax returns are nowavailablefC'rthefirsttimeby major postal ZIP Code class­ifications , John D. Hanson, Acting DistridDirector, Internal Revenue Se rvice for Maine, said today.

The statisticalinformation, based on 1966 tax returns and cov ­ering 827 ci ties and geographic areas throughout the United Stat­es, is contained in the new IRS publication, "Statistics of Income -- 1966, Supplemental Report, ZIP Code Area Data from Indivi­dual Income Tax Returns."

Hanson said that the new booklet marks the first publication by the Federal Government or fin..·mc: ial statistics for small areas in which the postal ZIP code system has been used fo r geogra­phic classifications. Previously such IRS da ut was available only foreachstateand the 100 largest standard metropolitan areas .

Since the ZIP Code system tends to reflect transportation pat­terns and patterns of commerce , Hanson said the statistical ma­terial in the new publica tion would be especially useful in appro­ximaU ng marketing or commuting arens .

The 96 -page publication, "Sta tis ties of Income ---1966, Supple­m ental Report ZIP Code Area Data from Ind·ividual Income Tax Returns," is available for $1. 00 form the Superintendent of Doc­cuments, U.S. Government Printing Office, Waslungton , D.C., 20402.

, , It is against the law to litter

in Maine.

This spring 50 youngsters filled two dump trucks with trash collected a long 2 0 miles of highway in Falmouth.

Seve n- tenths of a mile ofroadside yielded 840 pieces of litter in Bowdoinham this spring.

Floating litter poses a safety hazard for water skiiers.

With the sum m e r season here, make a traveling resol­ution: The place for travel trash is a litter bag or litter container.

Litter spoils the beauty of highway s, campsi tcs, beaches, and parks .. The Keep Maine Scenic Committee urges vacationists to find a litter container in which to dispose of trash.

"DON'T KID YOURSELF" . I

Did you ever plan a party With a neighbor or a fiend And knew i.ile day you planned it Just how it all would end? You thought that you could fool yourself That you could take a drink. But you knew damn well you couldn't It you'd only stopped to think.

II How many times you've told yourself "I'll just have one or two." But before the party ended You had taken quite a few. Then you were the life of the shindig With witty remarks to all But you knew when you planned the outing You were headed for a fall.

III You were just bubbling over Everyone seemed so gay. You sure made a hit at the party But you paid for it all the next day. So why do we try to kid ourselves As we travillife's highway? Why not stay sober and happy Stop to think a bit today.
