Title: Communicating the Word through puzzles.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-46256 COMMUNICATING THE WORD THROUGH PUZZLES LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Some clergymen communicate the Word through preaching, but the Rev. C.H. Edwardsen has found a new medium -- word puzzles. Since 1971, the minister-turned-businessman has been encouraging millions of children, shut-ins, and puzzle lovers to “Seek and Find,” using the word puzzles produced by the DMR Company, of which he is board chairman. Each puzzle appears in the format of a square made up of letters. The object is to connect letters horizontally or vertically, from right to left or left to right, to form words, such as shown in the bottom photo. Each one has a special theme, such as books of the Bible or symbolic names for Jesus. How did “Preach” Edwardsen, who in the top photo works on the puzzles with his son Robin, a Princeton Seminary graduate who describes himself as a “Presbyterian of a broad ecumenical type,” get into the puzzle business? After 19 years as a public relations man, he created a few simple word games to amuse a group of hospitalized children. They quickly became popular among a growing number of children and mass production soon followed. In response to numerous requests, the DMR Company, which is based in Jeffersontown, Ky., a Louisville suburb, has come out this year with a special edition of Seek and Find based entirely on religious themes. (Previous puzzle books have dealt with such subjects as place names, minerals, cheeses and Indian tribes.) “We wanted to try producing a sound word puzzle based on Bible subjects,” Mr. Edwardsen said, “but we were not prepared for the kind of response we received.” Millions of orders have already come in from agencies of various denominations and second and third editions of the Bible puzzle book are now in the works.
