Meditation It is a good thing to give thanks unto tby name, O most Htgb: To shew forth thy lovingkmdness m the morning, and thy faithfulness every night. Upon an instru ment of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound. For thou. Lord, bast made me glad through thy work: 1 will trlymph in the works of thy bands. O Lord, how great are tby works: and tby thoughts are very deep. Psalm 92: 1-5. Fight TB The Thanksgiving season is with us; the *opIe of Cherokee County are counting their >lessings and raising their voices in praise to heir Maker. This period of thanksgving and feasting vill, in s.,me twenty-four hours, give way to a eeling of a still happier holiday spirit when hat pa:ticular Christmas air fills the county. We no sooner get up from the Thanksgiv ing table than we start making out gift and greeting card lists. Throughout the days of thanksgiving and Christmas all the best thoughts, ideas and inclinations come to the front. While this holiday spirit is with us, we should all remember the wonderful work done with the money collected from the sale of Christmas Seals. It is through this money that many persons find relief and often times cure from that energy sapping and spirit robbing disease, Tuberculosis. Those people of Cherokee County who do not feel inclined to answer the letters sent them by the local TB committee should take a short tour through a TB sanatorium. There a visitor can feel the wonderful atmosphere of hope, cooperation, and most important of all, effi ciency. Our citiiens who believe that charity begins at home should remember that seventy-five per cent of the money collected here stays in the county. And we benefit from the other twenty five per cent because that money is used to find new ways and encourage new ideas to fight and cure TB. Dritem&n To Preach Here Sunday A. M. The Rev. James H.

FOREMAN 1 lllH-tl. TIT HAT miku right, right? It VV cannot ha determined by counting votaa. The voice of the people la not neceaaarUy the voice of God. Even If everybody In the world did exactly what la right (which baa never happened In thla world yet) it atill would not be right merely becauae they all did It If "right" meant nothing more than what everybody doea or what moat peo ple do. then right would change aa often aa popular opinion changed. It would change with the climate, with the calendar. But right la aomething more enduring than popular opiniona. cuatoma or en thuaiaama. e ? ? ? Doea "Right" Mean "Legal"? Another notion of what it la that makea right, la Law. If it'a legal lt'a right, if ifa Illegal tt'a wrong. But haven't we often beard the expression, "There ought to be a law . . The person who says that means that there Is something which is right that Isn't legal; he wants a law to match q ? what is right. Or again, laws are sometimes re pealed. But no one would ever vote to repeal a law if he didn't think the law was wrong. Good men sometimes repeal laws; but no good man ever wanted to repeal "right." There is a variety of this idea which has more truth in it: namely, that right is the same thing as the law of God. But God does not make acts right or wrong simply by ordering them to be so. Could God have said, Thou shalt kill, thou shalt bear false witness? Could he have said. Thou shalt hate thy-God and hate thy neighbor? Of course not. He could not have made up such nonsense-laws, such wicked commandments, because he is not that kind of God. for one thing, and for another thing because if he did. it would have meant the destruc tion of the human race. Although right, and the will of God. are really the same thing, yet an act is not right because God wills or com mands it because it is right. How Jesus Looked at It How d d Jesus our Lord stand on this question? What made a tl.ing right, for him? He got into trouble with the lawyers of his. time, and he got into trouble with what we would call D.D.'s and prominent preachers and professors of the ology (the Pharisees); they called him "bad" and had him executed accordingly So there was evidently a differ ence between his way of looking at "right" and their way. It was pre cisely on this point that they split. Jesus tried to make clear, though the Pharisees were too blind to see it, that the Sabbath law. any law of God or good rule of man, is right and good only in so far as it pro motes the welfare of man This is not setting up man above God. for God is man's Creator Right is what develops God's children; wrong is what stunts, deforms, defeats and destroys them. To put it in another way; The test of right and wrong is always this: Will this thing make people better and make better people? If so. it is right All our laws, institutions and interests must be brought to the test of their effect on human wel fare. And of course, in Jesus' view, the welfare of man includes social, spiritual and mental well-being and growth, not physical health and financial wealth alone. ? ? ?
