At Sunday Memorial Service

only member of the Freeport Fire Department to pass away dur-ing
the year, were held in the Transfiguration P.E. Church, Sun-da

chaplain, preached the sermon and Mayor Robert L,
Doxsee spoke briefly. Music was provided by the Department
band directed by William A. Dayton.
Mayor Doxsee said three things
were needed to set the country right
again—practice of the Golden Rule,
keeping of the commandment "Thou
Shalt no steal," and following af(
the Biblical precept of 4The second7
mile." The Mayor said that "the
people who preceeded us did a won^-

should .pass on to the next a better
Heritage than it received.. However,
he declared "the fact U we're not
doing so." He added some people go
to church regularly, some every now

or not at all," and then they go out
and forget all a/bout It." '
"What has taken 'us down" the
road," the Mayor continued, "is that
we've forgotten several things," after
which he listed the three things he
considered essential to put the coun-try
back on. the right • track.
