CHRISTMAS, Pastor First Baptist Church Andrews, N. C. IJY IN G WATER "Everyone that drinketh ot this water shall thirst again" . . . It is not difficult to find traces of this thirst in the faces of those whom we meet day by day. As we gaze upon the faces of the passing people, it is only now and again that we see a face which is indicative of peace. We are confronted with an abounding unrest. Vocabulary to portray the condition is varied, to say the least: "unrest," "discon tended," "dissatisfied." Let us think of people who are victims of consuming thirst. There iv the great army of men and wo men who are consumed by the fev er of worry. There is little calm about their life. They have no time of cool re flection. Their life is a fever from morning till night. This fever, at times is the result of a chill. The wind of bad news can chill us in the midst of a feast Subsequent worry issues in spirit ual feverishness. There are those who are domi nated by the lust of bliss. "As the heart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O pleasure !" These souls are always thirsting after new sensa tions. There sire those who are scorched with the desire of casual passion. The soul imprisoned in a temple of carnality is stricken with an inde ocribable thirst. There are those who hold the smoldering fire of dull indiffer ence. They often call their rest lessness by another name, but its proper name is spiritual thirst. Finally, there are those who are burdened with the sense of sin, and who are possessed by a fervent longing for the living Gctf. How do men seek to relieve their thirst? They are weary in their wor ry; they are tired in their pleas ures; they are sick in their pas sions. Too often resort is made to the "waters of the earth " Many people try to allay a spirit ual thirst by a carnal draught. Others attempt to realize satis faction and peace by immersing themselves in stimulants like the manifold pleasures of society. Yet they "thirst again." Others plunge more deeply into business. They seek for more gold and yet the soul refuses to be ap peased, and "thirst again." Or we can give opiates to our dis quieted and feverish souls. Many find satisfaction in referring to their intentions. But their satisfact ion is only temporary. They are thirsty still. Many feel they are becoming better because they severely con demn themselves. All these are pitiable evasions. Let lis turn to Jesus. "He would have given thee living water." The Master brings the gift of spiritual energy. He gives us spiritual forces that refresh and vitalize, that re store and maintain. "Whosoever drinketh . . Shall never thirst." It is an eternal ener gy.

After reading the article that Miss Addie Mae Cooke was here in Honolulu at the Hawaiian Baptist Acadamy, I gave her a ring and we plan to show her the island of Oshu in the near future. She is to visit us at our quarters at Schofield Barracks. My mother, Mrs. N. O. Kilpatrick returned recently from Detroit, Michigan and Taft, Calif., after spending the summer there. I am the former Mamilee Kil patrick, now married to Lt. Cecil M. Henry of Rome, Georgia. My friends in the school system there might like to know that I'm teach ing in Leilehua High School, Wahia wa, Oahu T. H. My subjects for this year are Latin and French. Aloha greetings to all of our friends there. Sincerely yours. Mrs. Cecil M. Henry I ? YOUR HOME TODAY There's More To Boom lighting Than Meets The Eye! Lighting Is more than a means e seeing after dark. With new equipment and new developments, ycu can now use It for setting that ?just right atmosphere" for the home's many activities. With modern lighting, you can create mood changes in a room make it festive or Intimate? With the flick of a switch. Tou can use round or oval pools or long, thin lines of light in your decorative 3cheme. The trick is to pick the type of lighting you want and to install the lighting equipment to provide it. Ready-made strip units, conceal cd spot lights, and a choice of bulbs in several colors are just a few of the items that can be in stalled without expensive remodel r.g. A recent innovation that makes mood lighting readily available is the control unit which can be used to dim or brighten all the lights in a room. Dimmers are par ticularly popular for dining rooms 01 party rooms. Another recent device that has many uses is the pole lamp. This consists of a floor to ceiling pole with three or more lights at tached. Swivel joints allow each light to be directed down for read ing or toward the wall or ceiling for lighting a large area. This fix ture. which plugs into an outlet just as any other lamp, is especial ly attractive for a corner of the foyer, the dining room, or in the corner of the living room for read ing. S.mple ready-made strip fixtures are easily installed on closet ceil ings, under kitchen wall cabinets, over bathroom mirrors, or over a desk or work bench. There is also a strip fixture for use over the head of a bed. ?rnese and other new develop ments in lighting have been speed ed up by the recognition that dif ferent types of lighting are need ed for different activities in the home. For example, for playing bridge, reading, preparing meals, 3r working at a desk, you need a high degree of concentrated light. But your lighting can be softer and more diffused for listening to mus dancing, conversation, or dining. Now, with winter just ahead, is good time to experiment with var ious lighting cffects and to brighten up dark comers. A few colored bulbs for decorative effect, a light ing strip under kitchen wall cabi nets or in a dark closet, a new lamp for reading, and, above all, enough lamp bulbs of the right size can make all the difference in the en joyment of your home on long win ter evenings.

Box 3512 MUSTARD SEEDS : ?? . ?OPE III A WUTNIX AQK low, scientist* have been turning rnan's attention on htamelf. They have turned hie (ue la ward, downward, and in the case jf psychiatry, even backward, rheae science* of psychology, biol ogy and sociology are good in them ?elves. But these have tended to make man self centered and even mater ialistic. Suddenly now, the orientation las shifted and the shift may prove lot only healthy but even holy. From ancient times the contem plation of the stars has led men to ipeculation about God. Contempla ion of ourselves, particularly on a itudious, scientific basis such as hat which characterizes so much nodern psychology and sociology, s necessarily depressing stuff. And vithout the grace of God, could ead to despair. That seems to be precisely what las happened. The new age of science, using elescopes instead of microscopes ind gazing out into God's clear ipace instead of back into our own nurky psychological depths, may et fresh air Into modern thought. In such air it may be easier for he Spirit of God to evoke more ?eady response. Astronomy, the >rospect of interplanetary studies -and even journeys? these are far ?emoved from the introspective iroodings and negative agnosticism which were the frequent by-pro iucts of the recent sciences gone ? seed. These new directions in science ?nay easily recapture the mood of mingled joy and reverence in which :he psalmist wrote: "I look up at !hose heavens of Thine, the work if Thy hands, at the moon and the ?tan. which Thou kti set la (Mr pi*ce?; what is man that Thou ttbouldjt rcmunber him? What la ?dam 'a bread, that It ahoaU claim Thy care? Thou haa placed Mm only a little below the angel* crowning him with glory and hon or, and bidding him rule over the worka at Thy hand!" Thia mood at mingled awe, yet joy, in the face of a universe open ing before ua, haa already aat in. Perhaps it will prove a natural predisposition to supernatural faith. It is a mucn more healthy atmosphere for religion than that at least, of the world of science which has dominated some corners, since Darwin and Freud! This mood 1s more likely to prove the greater, rather than narrow- * ly "humanistic" u any man-center ed, materialistic sense. It is the mood in which a new ' St. Bonaventure or Don Scotus could talk to us of the Christocen tric universe. It is the mood of a generation with its eyes not invert ed toward the depths, shallow or profound, of its own self, but on the stars and the glory of our heaven ly Father.
