INC., MEWYORK, N.Y. Cracks of Light By TOM O'NEIL In the event of world war three, let roe make an advance predic tion—WORLD WAR FOUR WILL BE FOUGHT WITH CLUB? I Many years later, stone hatch ets will come into general use, and the discovery of fire will be the greatest advancement of the ages. Somebody will make up a devil to go with the fire, “and for a price” they will keep him away from you. A stake will be set in an open field, and all opposition to this “devil idea” will be fed to the flames. 'That will obliterate most of the thinkers, and the mass-mind will be created through fear! ^ Different gods will be invent- 3 ed; one to hang out the stars, one for thunder, one for lightning, rain gods, sun gods, moon gods, etc. more gods will be turned out, and in abundance, as money comes into general use, and the easiest way to separate a man from his hard earned monej^ (it has been proven) is to threaten him with the displeasure of a god on one side, and the pleasure of 1 the devil on the other. . . “of course” there is also a head man’s axe, and the burning stake—? Later, someone invents a tele scope, disproving the star-hang ing god; persecutions wiU be end less, but men’s minds are freed a little from the terrible pinch of ignorance; false god after false god will topple from the gilded throne of superstition, the befud dled mind of man is slowly reach ing for light and truth. And so it will go. . . In the year 1955, a mil lion years from now.—the atom has been discovered, and bombs are being tested; somebody will sit down and write: IF THIS POWER TR EVER TJSED FOR WAR, I PREDICT THAT THE NEXT WAR WILL BE FOUGHT WITH CLUBS. . . e Received from a person in Southern Pines (mailed), two Catho'ic pamphlets; these parts were marked for my attention. First pamphlet: “JUDAISM FULL-BLOSSOMED IS CATH OLICITY” The sentence following that title, says, “Christian indebt edness to the Jews is infinitely great.” Second pamphlet: “The Jews thinking only of earthly things, always pictured the Mes siah as an earthly King. With glory greater than Solomon. With a mighty, resistless army, tramp ling the nations of the world be neath it. All the world must bow before the Kingdom of Judea.” It seems to me that one pamphlet cancels the other. Another letter received, says this: “I agree with you regarding the Bible, that the idea or belief of a word of God existing in print, or in writing, is inconsistent in it self, or else it COULD NOT be copyrighted with all rights re served.” I asked one minister, “How come the copyright?” He said, ■‘That’s so other Bible printers couldn’t infringe on our ideas.” That sounded kind’a silly to me, because one thing I do know for sure—God’s word belongs to everyone FOR FREE, nothing down, and nothing a week. . . Just open your eyes to the beauty of His creation, and your mind to the greatness of yourself, lift i^p your stumbling brothers, and “DO UNTO OTHERS, . .” and the Spirit of God will never leave your side at any time. Maybe they’ve got a copyright on how many punishments their particular devils can dish out. There must be more than one devil, because one organization says: “The devil that those fel lows are talking about isn’t the right one.” The other organiza tion says: “That is not so! Our devil is the best, and we’ve got friends to prove it.” I think that we better topple that mythical fellow from his mythical throne, or the next thing ycu know, somebody will try to patent the prong^ on his pitch fork.

Brown of the Morrison Training School at Hoffman call ed the Pilot today to say that he had received an unsigned letter from Southern/ Pines, addressed to him personally, enclosing $10 to help the work of the “Jackson Training School.” The superintendent, a former school principal in West Southern Pines, wants whoever sent the money to let him know if the money is intended for “Jackson” and not “Morrison” Training school. Both are Negro correction al institutions. Supt. Brown said that if he does not hear from the person who sent the money, he will assume it is for Morrison Training School. He expressed deep apprecia tion of tile unknown friend’s in terest and the gift, but wanted it to go where the donor wished it to be used. fIfrATKtSL CAROLINA V , Continuing at the Carolina Theatre, this Thursday, Friday and Saturday, is “Ulysses,” the compelling and always interesting story, beautifully filmed in Tech nicolor, of the main incidents in Homer’s “Odyssy,” splendidly act ed by Kirk Douglas as “Ulysses” and by Silvana Mangano as his wife, Penelope, and the enchant ress, Circe, and other leading players including Anthony Quinn, Rossana Podesta and Daniel Iver- nal. Based faithfully on the Greek epic poem by Homer it is filmed on many of the Mediterranean and Aegean sites where the story was first set. It is a worthy rend ering of ene of the greatest clas sic adventures of all time. Of Lucy Gallant,” it is as slick as the oil that figures so prominent ly in the story in this celluloid vignette of a Texan boomtown and its nouveau riche citizens. “Journalism may kill you, but it will keep you alive while you’re at it.”—Horace Greeley.

Supplied with emotional qualities and humorous touches, it seems inconceivable that any a\|r dience will fail to appreciate it. T*atrons will get many laughs to see human beings through the eyes of a show dog. It is a tender but laugh-provoking story of a dog who longed for a good home. STARVIEW Drive-In Theatr#* Between So.
