the back of a dollar bill. The
vramid represented in the cen
ter of this symbolism is incom
plete without the capstone at the
i 'on having in the center the "all
seeing eye.” ancient symbol of
Almighty God. The national mot
to of the country is. "In God We
! TrusV" taken from the 118th
Psalm. It is put on the money to
( remind us that we are to trust
in God and not money. Yet the
tendency today is to trust in the
money, and put first those things
which make money.
The othi r Sunday I visited a
Sunday school class of children
in my church. It was the Sunday
nearest Independence Day. I
asked them what the national
motto of the United States was.
One child promptly replied,
"Money.”
In our consultations with peo
ple in trouble in home or business
we always try to point them to
, the desirability and necessity of
I adopting the Divine Partnership
i plan. Where God is put first "in”
! business, home, personal rela
tions. there is always success.
But when self or money goes in
; the center, trouble comes in.
The national plan for success
is. therefore; God. labor, capital,
.directive ability. A complete and
happy home requires God, man,
woman, children.
I Think it over then try it for
yourself. You can't beat it.
