We believe these people are gene rally sincere though often misguided and naive. lt is not so much what can they do to help "these poor, unfortunate people," but what they can do to help them– selves find the understanding and the Christian spirit that will enable them to become a more significant part of the servant church. After this has happened, and only then, can there be a basis of involvement in the answer to the question, "What can I do to help?" We recommend that WHICH FUNERAL DIRECTOR? Here is a question frequently asked of us at Cald– well's COLONIAL MORTUARY. Q. How do I select a funeral director? A. Your primary concern should be with his character and reputation. Comments from rela– tives, friends and your clergyman, plus your own observations, will be especially helpful in your choice. This qu estion is one of a series taken from our fa ctual booklet ."

Sandy Blvd. at 14th churches establish race re– lations workshops to increase the awareness of all people to the culture of others. This could well be on a summer program basis and aimed in part to encourage youth of suburban and other areas where there is a general lack of minority people to trans– fer to Jefferson High School in the Fall to become a part of the humanizing process, This type of workshop should also be a year-round, delib– erate effort of adult groups in the church. We also recommend that courses in Negro history be adapted for Sunday School curriculum to be sponsored and encouraged by the Great– er Portland Council of Churches. If we are to build an area of understanding be– tween people, we need a bet– ter knowledge of the back– ground affecting all people, In the series of meetings held recently in churches throughout the Albina area, we found people who were concerned and upset by the thought of revolution, If there is any group that should have no fear of the revolu– tionary process, it is the Christian Church, The Church came into being as a revolu– tionary movement, The one to whom we have commined our life was indeed the su– preme revolutionary of all time. Perhaps the Church needs Jeff Musicians To Visit Seattle Jefferson High School's band and orchestra will par– ticipate in exchange as– semblies with Rainier Beach High School on Lake Wash– ington in Seattle April 16- 17. Rainier will play at Jef– ferson in Portland May 3. The purpose is to meet fel– low students striving for the same goal to live in our present day society.
