ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES VOLUME XXVII Lindbergh Longs For Home, Despite Great Honors Given To Him Noted Airman Is Homesick and Declines to Visit Eu ropean Nations Which Would Pay Him Homage “MUST GO HOME” HE TELLS PRESS Is Not Unmindful of Great Honors Given Him But Longs to Be Back in America With Friends. London. May 30. — UP) —Capfnih Lindbergh in homesick—terribly home sick. He said so this mornipg. The knight of the air appreciates to the fullest extent the honorH bestowed up on him here, in Brussels and in Paris, bur is eager to return home nt the earliest possible moment. He made this clear while speaking to reporters upon his return to the American embassy, after an early morning trip to the Croydon air field to make sure his trans-Atlantic mon oplane had weathered the storm of the rough and tumble welcome given it up on his arrival from Brussels yester day. Lindbergh will have a chat tomor row with King George, and with the Prince of Wales. Wednesday he will be the guest of Lord Lonsdale, fam ous sportsman at the running of the derby. Kvery making moment of his time is booked during fain stay here, but if he had his own way he wonld take his “Spirit of St. Louis and start right back for New York.” “I want to get home that bad.” be said, adding “though of course I am not actually thinking' of returning by air. please understand that fully.” The flyer remarked that he could not say enough in praise of the honors and recognition heaped upon him ev erywhere, but nevertheless the ques tion of getting home was uppermost in his mind and would be -until he began his return trip. “There is nothing definite yet about the date of sailing, nor just how I shall go,” he continued. “I am not a particularly good sailor, and every thing considered would prefer to fly back home in the same old bus thnt brought me over. However, I vvjjl not tby to fly the Atlantic again. It na* been done, and there is no advantage to w ffry pwtatifffiKggr ~Peeping Into the future he visual, iaed a regular trans-Atlantic aerial service. “It has wonderful commercial pos sibilities, there is no doubt about that.” he said. “I came by the shortest route, but the route of the future will be deter mined after scientific research. This is already under consideration in va rious quarters, I have no doubt.” The Swedish journalists plied Lind bergh with questions about the possi bility of his visiting Sweden, but he replied that he greatly regretted that circumstances prevented him visiting the countryland of his father. ‘I must go home,” he emphasized. According to his present plans, be will fly to Paris probably on Thurs day, but his program after that date is still unsettled. A woman reporter asked him if it were possible for a woman to fly the Atlantic alone. “Why not?" was his reply. He re fused. however, to enter into further questions along this line. He was seemingly annoyed when a reporter asked if he planned to have any clothes made while in London, remarking “I am an airman and I am not trying to set any fashions. 11 haven’t much time to think much, about clothes." .The airman was a guest of honor; at a private luncheon today given by | the American Ambassador, jA. B. Houghton, at the embassy. After the luncheon Capt. Lindbergh accompan-1 ied by the Ambassador, was to attend j Memorial services under the auspices J of the London branch of the Ameri-1 can Overseas Memorial Day Associa-I tion at St. Margaret’s, Westminster.! The services were to be private. Afterward he planned to lay aj wreath on the tomb of the unknown j soldier in Westminster Abbey. To night he will be a dinner guest of the American Press Association. Karly tomorrow, Col. Kenyon Joyce, Amer ican military attache who has the air man under his wings, hopes to show the Tower of London and some other sights. In his talk with reporters. Lind bergh said he has found that the only damage to his plane was a slight in jury to the fabric.

"StEK THE TRUTH' OR. LEWIS ADVISES SCOTII GRADUATES President of the Seminary Tells Members of Senior | Class That Truth Will I Lead Them to Success. ! PICTURES WAY OF THE LIGHT Outlines Acts of Jesus and Tells Hearers to Model Their Lives After That of the Christ. “Buy the truth and sell !t not”, from Proverbs 20.23, was the text of Dr. T. R. Lewis, president of Hcotin Hetninary, in his baccalaureate sermon to the graduating class of the sem inary Sunday afternoon. The sermon was delivered in West minster Presbyterian Church and was heard by a large congregation. Dr. Lewis began his sermon by quoting the text, and then said: Again, ns on two former occasions, I come to you with a proverb. The core of this text is the truth. Let us therefore at the outset ask our selves, “What is Truth?" But let us not nsk with the despair of a soul that has sought in vain, nor with the cold, frivolous scepticism, the utter indifference of the Roman governor who cared more for Caesar than for conscience; but with an ar dent detsire to know the truth that the truth may make ua free. What then is truth? To the Hebrew the root of the idea of truth was that which was propped. What is propped is firm, stable, firm true. To the Greek it was that which was not hidden. It was open and unconcealed. Our English word truth comes from an old word “Trow” use only once I believe in tbe New Testament which meant to think, trust or believe. Truth then was what one trusted or believed to be a fact. If we were to attempt a philoso pher’s definition of truth, by which I mean that to which meu have been led by the study of all they see in the world apart from what God has re vealed in the Bible, I suppose it would ■■ tu- say umi -natfl is ultimate reality. But no one can get nny real satis faction from that definition because it is too vague and impersonal. It will not satisfy his deepest longings nor solve the mysteryies of time and eter nity. So we want some better defi nition of truth than that. When we open the Bible we are led by its first word to God the Source, Sovereign and final End of all things unto whom be glory forever. Amen. In these last days God has snoken to us in bis Son. John in that won derful introduction to his record which contains the germs of all the follow ing flower and fruit makes this re markable statement: "Tbe law was given by Moses; grace and trust came by Jesus Christ.” There is a sharp contrast between Moses and Christ. The spell of that yontrast is upon us the moment we utter the names Moses, Christ. Grace and truth were both known in Moses’ day but they were minis tered by Moses and were therefore shadowy, partial, incomplete. There is a difference between the twilight of the morning and the clear shining of the perfect day. So grace and truth in perfection and glory came by Jesus Christ. And then he goes on to point out what he means and how it comes to pass that truth' came by Jens Christ by saying; "No man hath seen God at any time: the only be gotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.” Now we can return to (hie question with which we began, “What is Truth ?” and we have the answer; truth is God perfectly made known. Jesus is the Word. He is in the bosom of the Father. Aud dwelling among men in human form teaching and working He is the expression of God's inmost thought. And from these words draw this simple defini tion of truth which ought to be to each one of us of great price: truth is what God thinks about thingß. Now we can apply this simple defi nition to God's works in creation and government of the world apart from what is shown in tyi the Bible, What is tbe science of astronomy? So far as it is an exact scieucfe, so far as men have discovered facts about the ruii, moon and stars, they have discovered just whut God has thought and still thinks of them. Just as a building is the visible, material ex pression of the thoughts of the archi tect so the heavens and the earth are the expression of the thought of God. For He spake, and He thought before He spake, and it was done. He com manded and it stood fast. To David the heavens were a silent but uni versal witness to the glory of God and in modern times one devout astron omer declared, right in line with our definition of truth, that in his study and the finding of the facts of his. science he. was thinking God’s thoughts after Him. God said, Let there be light: and there was light. No one has been able to tell us as yet what light is. But the inspired explana tion of its beginning, ita coming to’ be, la proof that it Ja the expression of God’s thought. And if tbe sci entists ever do find otit the truth about Please- Turn to Pags Three CONCORD, N. C„ MONDAY, MAY 30, 1928 PROVIDES FREE " t LUNCHES J V M-WSULJS. Atlanta.
