It seams to me that I heard my .grandfather speak in similar terms many years ago. We are the richest, the strongest country lip. the world and we have more Th&terial things to enrich our lives than any other people ini the world. What is vour com ment? —Silas. Silas: Well it all depends on what you see in the picture as to whether you are a confirmed op-1 timist or tend to be a pessimist. l ; Regardless of the question, many’ people do not care too much for the bleating from the house-j .tqps .that we are the richest andj strongest country in the world with all of our material pos-' sessions; if it is true, then we I should be more humble about] it. It is also claimed by somej students that in proportion toi our population we have more neurotics, more alcoholics and" more insecure and unhappy peo ple than anywhere else in the ..uforld. do not go to gether. If you are an individ ual without any responsibility with a good job you may be ‘pbie to get along without tool much concern. On the other I hand if you are an individual _ with responsibilities of family life and in debt, then you' should be somewhat concerned with the increase in all kinds V taxes and the continued in flation or loss of purchasing power of your motley. If you age a follower of Keynes and fSs economic philosophy there is . nothing to worry about as his philosophy is that we spend our selves into prosperity; that money is only paper and we can continue to print more and more paper money as the limes -require and when the load be comes too heavy then all debt can be repudiated. If you fol low this then there is no use in saving. But just think what would happen to your invest ments say in insurance, in social security and other investments iri which people count for their income on which to live. Such repudiation would create an eco nomic hiatus and panic. Some economic thinkers still believe that you have to pay for what j you get in some form or other, that there is no rhanna from ■heaven that comes to us with-: out effort of some kind. There is no doubt that your grandfather in his time saw a great deal in government and Who could ask for anything more...at any price? } *^^****l A ho -ouwY; mak for finer Who could i7 ** ** V aakfor ASK FOK 1 *»k for •tyliM? ask for more /|“'f™\\ more comfort?

Simey. of explodes the earth at the end of his 45-foot hop, step, jump at a London, England, track meet. economic life that called for his j criticism: each age has its pro phets of a bright future as well sfe prophets of doom. It is a I question of analyzing these pro phesies. There is no doubt that some of the social programs are sound in theory but poor in admini stration and application. Take Unemployment Compensation. In I these times there is no doubt ' that a worker who loses his ' job through no fault of his own should be helped until he gets j.on his feet again. But in the | application of the law it takes !in any one regardless: such as . an embezzler, who was fired be ! cause of stealing from his em i pioyer. He was put on proba j tion for five weeks and then I put on unemployment relief; or 1 the college instructor who claim ' ed he was only paid for part of the college year and received! unemployment payments during the summer months when he did not teach. You could go on illustrating the mis-application ofi 1 the principles of unemployment ] I compensation. The thing to re-! ] member is that the employei ■ pays for this by means of a tax jon the payroll and the more the employer is taxed the less able he is to give well earned in creases to his employees; the j same is true of social security; la great many people have never paid for social security for which present workers and em- Iployers are footing the bill. If they further deduct from wages for health and hospital benefits, the present workers will take home less and less pay and the employer will have less to give ■ out in the way of increases. It jis a question how much the . present workers will stand be j mg taxed. The overall problem, however, iis one of the Federal Govern- Iment spending beyond its in come and going into debt. At ; the present time our debt is I some $292 Billion Dollars and] ] future commitments amount toi some SBOO Billion Dollars. This comes about because of the I ■ various states and cities and pro-1 I fesskmal lobbyists calling on th-, federal government to do what' used to be considered local prob-' Items. States are giving up their j individual responsibilities to the I Federal Government, as well asi cities. Michigan is in almost] bankruptcy as result of too free j THE CKOWAJf HERALD. EDSKTQN. KOB7H CAROLISA. TK JRfiDAT, JUKE lft. lftftft. spending in too short a period of time. The load on future generations may be more than they can stand and they may, rebel. Already a prominent U. S. Senator has proposed a | National Federalism in which the I Federal Government will take] over all taxing responsibilities, | with minor exceptions and 'then dole it out to the states with instructions on how the money is to be spent. This is a trend in which the famous state rights are being handed over to the Federal Government. It is a trend to be watched, and con trolled, so that it does not get out of hand and individual re sponsibility surrendered. You can reason for yourself and de cide if you are a pessimist and a prophet of doom or a fore caster of a new land of milk and honey, in which the honey may lose some of its sweetness and the milk become sour. Dear Three P’s: I am in my forties and past the age of having children. I am going with an attractive man somewhat older than myself. He does not want to get married j but wants nie to live with him j as though I were his wife. I realize I may never be married but my conscience bothers me about accepting this arrange ment. Do you have any sug gestions? —Prunella. Dear Prunella: You are over twenty-one and presumably have reached some stage of maturity so that you know what you want. Your boy friend apparently does not want to be tied down in a legal way as a husband but wants all of the comforts of a home and the dessert that goes with it. If you live together long enough you could always claim to 'be his' common law wife for what it is worth, but on 'the other hand he can walk out any time hej wants. You must decide what j you want and if the results youj expect are worth the risk. SUNDAY SCHOOL j LESSON Cont'd. from Page 3—Section 2 But Jesus gave his followers a criteria by which to judge be tween false and true prophets. They would be known by their fruits. Jesus used the illustra tion of a tree and its fruit. 1 Good fruit is evidence of a j sound, healthy tree. But a di jseased tree does not bear good 1 fruit. The quality of the fruit [ is consistent with the quality of \ the tree 'that produces i)t. So it is with men. A person who is fundamentally morally and spir-, itually healthy lives a good life and does good deeds. The op posite is also true. By their fruits are men known. And Jesus also indicated that a tree that does not bear good fruit Loses its right to a place in the vineyard. It will be destroyed eventually. Likewise Jesus always insisted that a person’s heart must be right. Pious words and plati tudes are not the evidence of a genuinely sincere person. A person who calls on God in word alone, but not ih spirit, is a false leader. Jesus himself stressed over and over again that he who did the will of God would prove himself through his ' deeds. Doing the will of God ! is necessary if our lives are to 1 bear good fruit. Os what value ' is a "Christian” man if he never does Christlike things? Is he bearing the right label? Faith automatically produces Christ like activities. It is concerned with reproducing the life of God in the life of the believer. It j seeks a channel fen- the spirit) of God in order that God can do through him what otherwise ] could not be done. It should be very obvious to ’! us that a Christian should not ij do good simply because he is , j going to be rewarded for doing •; good. This act completely des troys his goodness. The good j life is fundamentally dependent on the motives which drive a | man. A Christian does good be cause it is right to do so, and ! because it is an expression of j his love of God. We do well to close with the beautiful words of Jesus record ed in John’s Gospel: “Abide iri me, and I in you. As the ' branch cannot bear fruit by it self, unless it abides in the vine, ( neither can you, unless you abide in me.” If we closely examine our selves and our principles, and the souls and motivations of oth ers, it should not 'be too diffi- ■ cult for us to distinguish the true prophets from the false.
