description Between 1914 and the late 1960s, the Champion Paper and Fibre Company published an internal newsletter, called The Log, to share news about the Canton mill, the community, and its employees. After 1940, news from the entire “Champion Family,” which included mills in Hamilton, Ohio, Houston, Texas and Sandersville, Georgia, was featured in each issue. . ." •, ' • CHAMPION ~CTMTIES APRIL 1946 r .

St. John 11:25. EASTER has a special significance-the resurrection ~rom the ci,ead- a symbol of life beyond the grave. Coming Ill the spnng of the year, when all about us we see signs of newness of life on one hand, and foretokens of immortality on the other, we are persuaded, that faith in the resurrec­tion of Him who took the sting out of death, robbed the grave of its victory, and assured man tha t be is destined to live forever though the body retu rn to the dust from whence it came, the soul shall find rest and security in Him who • gave It. Two thousand years ago, Ch rist left heaven, came to ea rth, living among men, suffered and di ed upon the Cro of Calvary for the remi ion of our sins, thu s, by his death made it possible for us to have life et ernal through fait h in Him as the Saviour of men. This Easter day should bring n w hope and great er i r to t he peoples of the world , because today, th world i t hinki ng more seriou . ly abou " n arth p a . v od will toward men" than ever b for .

St. John 11:25. EASTER has a special significance-the resurrection ~rom the ci,ead- a symbol of life beyond the grave. Coming Ill the spnng of the year, when all about us we see signs of newness of life on one hand, and foretokens of immortality on the other, we are persuaded, that faith in the resurrec­tion of Him who took the sting out of death, robbed the grave of its victory, and assured man tha t be is destined to live forever though the body retu rn to the dust from whence it came, the soul shall find rest and security in Him who • gave It. Two thousand years ago, Ch rist left heaven, came to ea rth, living among men, suffered and di ed upon the Cro of Calvary for the remi ion of our sins, thu s, by his death made it possible for us to have life et ernal through fait h in Him as the Saviour of men. This Easter day should bring n w hope and great er i r to t he peoples of the world , because today, th world i t hinki ng more seriou . ly abou " n arth p a . v od will toward men" than ever b for . But, without th · s irit f Christ ru lin in ur hearts we doubt if th r ill ev r b lasting peace, and good wi ll a.rd m n.

' ·Which Shall It Be- Peace Or World W or Three? ln a recent .issue of The National V\ eek it is tated. ' Pre­parations for wa r in time of peace probably never have been pre.ssed by the United States, Russia, and Great Brirain o act1vely as at p-resent. Besides continuino- to pay the co t of th.e !ast war, it is probable that th ese big powers in normal peacetime years, will be spendino- the equivalent of $20,- 000,000,000 a year on preparation for another po ible con­flict in the future."
