TODAY'S
MEDITATION
Be 14 thai out aa far aa Beta
any, and lifting hp his beads he
Weaned th.m. (Luke 24:50 RSV.)
The irood Shepherd led the dls-
ciplea out to Bethany, and His fi
nal visible act of love before His
ascension was to lift His hands to
bless them.
It was expedient that Jesus go
away. Aa He said to His disciples,
"If I do not go, your Advocate
will not come, whereas if 1 go, 1
will send hrm to you." Christ ful
filled His promise ten days aftei
His ascension.
The Holy Spirit is our compan
ion along life's way. When mem
bers of a family are committed to
Christ, He draws them closer to
gether in divine love, regardless
of the miles that may seperate
them from one another. To those
bf the household of faith, He ex
tends their outlook beyond provin
cialism, instills love divine that
conquers prejudices, and challen
ges to purposeful living.
Jesus Christ is ever leading us out
to new experiences in the faith,
ever lifting His hands to bless ua
when we live in obedience to God.
PRAYER: () God. we thank Thee
for knowledge of Thee which we
have through Christ, Thy Son.
Forgive us our sins, shortcomings,
and neelect. Through the Holy
Spirit, strengthen us for disciple-
ship that counts. In (Jinsls
name. Amen.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
We never lose sight of Jesus
Christ when we are governed by
the Holy Spirit whom He sent.
Russell Q. Chilcote, fcditor
Tennessee
The man had fired three times
and one of the bullets had wound
ed the woman. It was not until
Wolf removed his gun, holster and
other equipment from his locker
at headquarters did he find the
third bullet. It was imbedded in
a notebook he had been carrying
in his left shirt pocket over his
heart.
Roberts Speak
(Continued from Pig Om)
Cycle of poverty." A reversal of
Jiie present policy will help to el
evaU our people into the "cycle
of hope," it was stated. If the
President ia seriously Interested
in stamping out poverty, which
has been attempted since the first
"100 days" of FDR, he should an
alyte some of the unpopular pre
ent policies relative to the Appa
lachian region and should open
the mountains with hatter roads,
improve educational facilities and
should institute re-trainnlg pro
grams for those who desire to
learn new skills and seek new
jobs, said Roberts. He expressed
profound sorrow that there ia
idleness in the midst of so much
thst needs to be done in building
new schools, reclamation of land
and the development of our nat
ural resources. Roberts quoted
the great conservationist, Glfford
Pinchot, as saying, "The Lord hath
been very good to us in his time
in giving to us so many natural
resources. It is our duty to make
them available to the people."
Roberts said education and good
roads transcend in importance
all partism and selfish interests.
The Congressional candidate as
serted his firm belief in the fact
that America's heritage is a no
ble one which must be preserved
by a free people who are united
against those sinister forces which
would overwhelm or destroy this
nation. He eloquently summed up
the hopes and aspirations of free
dom loving peoples everywhere by
saying that "although perilous
times are facing our nation, the
challenges of today can be reck
oned with confidently by a cour
ageous, Cod-fearing citizenry who
aware of the superiority of de
mocracy over all other ideologies,
especially atheistic Russian Com
munism. We must be constantly on guard
so as to prevent the destruction of
our Western Christian civilization
by alien influences and subversive
tactics. Roberts emphasized at
the Communist movement is world
wide la scope and ia not content
to be contained in one country.
Like a disease, it will spread un
less stymied. It seeks to destroy
the free enterprise syshm aa a
mm of aralniiur its objective of
BMrid enslavement. Korea and
Cuba prove that the Communists
have adopted the technique ot in
filtration into areas of intended
abaorotion in somewhat small and
remote places where resistance ia
ant axnected. Roberts stated
th.t the onlv thing respected by
the Communists is force. Tho
GOP candidate considered the UN
i the best means of combatting
the Communist menace and pro
moting economic progress.
Roberts unred an end to the
drain of gold from this country to
oreign lands. Even though we are
In debt, millions of dollars are be
ing given to distant and hostile
lands which neither like nor re
spect America. This was viewed
aa a headlong dash toward bank
ruptcy and aa leaving solvency of
this nation In serious jeopardy.
The former representative and
state senator concluded his re
marks by quipping, "I can't re
member a time whan a President
had prosperity and poverty going
for him at the same time!"
Two candidates for Governor,
Robert Gavin and Sen. Charles
Strong spoke at the rally, which
was presided over by Kent Cow
ard, 11th district GOP chairman.
Gavin said he would, if nomi
nated, wage the most active cam
paign in the history of N. C, to
end one partyism in thle state.
Sen. Strong said the key to quali
ty education in N. C. lies in get
