On Earth Peace Goodwill Toward Men"
The heavenly message of peace and good
will, sang by an angelic choir to tin wakeful
shephrds i nthe Judean bills, her aided the
birth of the Prince of Peace, Christ Jesus, tire
way shower and Saviour of mankind.
This celestial message of peace, record.-d
over nineteen centuries ago. came to n world
where peace and good will were virtually un
known. The. Jewish kingdoms, long divided
greed and conquest and smarting under Ro
man oppression, were looking for freedom and
the restoration of their empire* There wi<
plots, intrigues, wars and rum;as of war
throughout the world Mankind was looking
and hoping for peace.
The trouble then, as it is now, was that,
although during the dark days that ushered iu
the Christian era mankind needed and want*
ed peace, it did not them and does not now,
really know the meaning of peace, its or;gin
or what it- entails.
The history of mankind has been darkened
by the belief ' peace must conic through
oppression, selfishness, bloodshed and con
quest.
The Jews had been promised a deliverance
from their conquerors, a re -establishment of
their kingdoms, a reign of peace and prosper
ity, Their barren hearts had visualized a migh
ty army of chariots and horses by which an
angel of war would vanquish all of their < n
emir-s
They did not. because they could not, ac
cept the teachings and leadership of Christ
because it was foreign to their hclirfs and
hopes, even though those beliefs and hopes
were the primary cause i;t their enslavetn- ot,
And although the 1 - raid angels song "Prnre

When Governor Hodges railed all of North
Carolina's lawmakers who represented the
state in Washington, he might have had some
thing. We think that much could come out of
the meeting, but Charles F, Carroll, Superin
tendent of Public Instru- tion might be invit
ing trouble for the state if he expects Congress
to build separate schools.
Dr Carroll predicted that new legislation
was in the offing to provide aid in school
house construction. He told the solons that be
felt that there would be an effort to tic in with
the enforcement of the Supreme Court’s seg
teg a ton decisions.
Dr. Carroll's memory must be very short.
He must have forgotten what happened to the
last bill that was proposed for aid to schools
by the Federal government. He must not. have
read the results of the last election when Ne
groes flocked to the polls to vote against eon
' gressmen who even kept company with pro
ponents of legislation that would point toward
segregation.
Dr. Carroll must not have heard President
Eisenhower’s statement on the night of elec
tion. It must not have dawned on hm that
northern Democrats, fearful of their necks in
10SR. have formed a eolation to fight all th<
harder for'integration, Mr. Eisenhower and the
congress have received a mandate from the
people, a great number in the south, to con
tinue their work of democracy. Dr Carroll
could well be weaving the web that will see
North Caorolina elect Republican congress
men, to a large degree, in 1958.
Highway chairman A H Graham showed
much concern over the highway program. He
was much concerned over the new director of

too long, we have been treated
by quack doctors instead of by
the Great Physician. ,
The quack, remedies which
humanity has been taking, like
aspirin, ease the pain only tem
porarily, but do not uproot the
cause and cure the disease. We
need a remedy that can com
pletely cure, even in the ad
vanced stage of our cancerous

blood stream needs to be puri
fied and its organismic struc
ture and behavior need to be
corrected. Sedatives are made,-
quale: we need a real panacea
a cure-all remedy. Our sin
sick world is in need of the
‘'bains in Gilead.”
The Kingdom of God is in

brotherhood of man.
Selfishness, prejudices, hatr

In dlsspermation of old.
In the town ot Bethlehem, city

He was a counselor and tin

Was on His shoulder
In tho form of a cross
For Hr was. He is, and ever

The day He was born the an

Started the work! to singing
Peace on earth, good will to all

Their voices still are. ringing.
He is tho Prince of Peace

For you and everyone this
