Mennonite Colony Grows Near Nevada
The Missouri Mennonite community around Walker Nevada Metz Rich Hill numbers about 480 with farmers and some workers in local factories. John Becker, Walker Mennonite minister, says members work constantly to honor Christ and avoid eye service. Beards, modest dress, and no TV or movies mark their lifestyle as they seek farmland and community stability amid westward migration.

A study of 55 Danish adopted men and 78 controls suggests a biological tendency to alcoholism. Researchers, including Drs Goodwin Guze Schulsinger Hermansen and Winokur, found higher rates of alcoholism, psychiatric treatment, and divorce among offspring of alcoholics, implying genetic factors beyond environment.
