(CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE)
the Kingdom of God. They thought
of the coming Messianic kingdom
aiiil believed firmly that God loved
his i>eople. Today we are motivated
by the doctrine of Jesua and we
should be more unified by His hav
ing been here on earth. We are
forced to conclude, however, that
the kingdom that Jesus spoke of has
not come. We are filled with
thoughts of hatred. The Greeks,
the Romans, and the Anglo-Saxons
all worshipped their own national
Gods before Christ’s coming, and
there wag no one God for all the |
world. Then Jesus came to the
earth, and when he said “Our Fath- '
or,’’’ he meant it for' all the world,
and all men became brothers. j
But have we learned to live as
brothersf We still don’t have true j
World Fellowship. We must act as
if the Kingdom of God has already
come; when we do, we will not hate
each other any longer. j
Mr. Roberts has been in the mis-.
sion fields in Africa during past 1
years, and he told of the antagon
ism of the tribes before the coming
of the Gospel. When men of dif-!
ferent tribes met on the trail they I
fought—and one mu,st be killed be-1
fore either could continue on his ■
way. But. since the Gospel has been '
carried to this heathen land, a won-1
derful change has taken place. Mr.!
Roberts said that he has seen 17
men of 17 different tribes standing
before the communion table, side by
side, with peace in their hearts and
contentment, and then they took the
emblems of the communion out to
their people.
With our vaunted civilization,
have we learned to live and love
: in His name? When we do, we can
liave safety and security, and the
Kingdom of God can come on the
earth.

Views On Current Political
Situation Given
Fred Kssary^ who is the chief
correspondent of “The Baltimore
Sun” in the Washington office,
gave a Iccture in Greensboro re
cently. This was the fourth lecture
of the season given under the aus
pices of the Lecture Series of the
Woman’s College of the University
of North Carolina.
Mr. Essary, a tall, handsom man
with a delightful sense of humor,
held the attention of his listeners by
reminiscing for them his experiences
in and his impressions of Washing
ton. He has seen the coming in of
seven presidents and the going out
of six. He spoke in a general way
of our present situation. He was
complimentary of President Roose
velt in most of his policies. He said
that if he were the President, he
would call in his family and make it
clear to tliem that he, Franklin D.
Roosevelt, had been elected presi
dent, and that the children’s hour
had ended.
Mr. Essary believed the brain
trusters should be men of capabil
ity and experience, so that when the
president felt the need of being ad
vised, lie would be surrounded by
trained people to advise him.
The speaker stated that from all
evidences the Constitution would be
the issue of the next campaign, but
since the Constitution could not do
anything, he thought the issue would
be the i>ocketbook of the American
people.
Several members of the Salem fac
ulty, as well as .some of the sutd-
onts, attended this lecture.

resort for his health at the time that
he wrote this letter. His beloved
was at a ]>lace beginning with the
letter K (Beethoven did not men
tion the name of the place), which
was two days journey from where
Beethoven was.
Beetlioven wrote this letter Thurs
day, July 6. We find that the years
17!)o, 1801, 1807, 1812, 1828, have the
date July 6 on a Thursday; therefore
Dean Vardell took up each year men
tioned above and told where Bee
thoven was at the time; the women
he knew; the ones he was supposed
to be in love with; and the possibili
ties of each being Beethoven’s really
beloved or the one whom the “Moon
light Senato” was written. Scholars
believe that the year 1812 is prob
ably the year in which Beethoven
wrote the letter, because of his age

and the fact that he said in his let
ter that he was at a place where he
could lead a quiet life.
Although he had many loves in
his life and many famous and inter
esting women as friends, no one has
yet discovered direct proof as to
which lady was his true beloved, and
for which lady he really wrote the
“Moonlight Senato.”
