. feni** Program of Keform l ariHK waw> or cwt> to ) MEN'S LIVES Scripture—Mrra Mi THE TWO Books at Ezruand Neheirttah continue the history of the Jewish geople flown to about 400 B.C. i appears 1n both boohs, but there is no ref erence to him in the Book of Bara until the seventh chapter which begins today's lesson. Aside from the program of re form which Ezra Instituted for the Jswb, he is am Important Biblical dhmacter because he edited moat * the bocks of the Old Testament and put them in their present farm. a great deal of knowledge and scholarly abil ity was necessary to do this, but Ezra apparently was -capable enough, tor we are tolfl he was a “ready scribe in the law of Moses.” He was a descendant of Aaron, brother of Moses, Intel ligently taught In the word of God, capable of leadership and skillful in using the appropriate means to accomplish his work. Apparently Ezra was on good terms with Artaxerxes, king of Persia, for ha received a com mission from him to go to Ju dah with another detachment of Jews and put the nation In order politically and religiously. This was not a forced recolonl surrounding' them. Ute Daniel, Vn identified himself with hia people to their guilt end ao knowledges that they have for saken HI* commandments in this matter, despite God's good ness to bringing them out of captivity and back to their homeland. The land, for them, was un clean, not because It had been devastated, but morally unclean. Its Inhabitants were descend ants eff the Babylonian colonists, the Wretched remnant of the Hebrews who had not been token Into captivity, the Idola trous Canaanltee. Idolatry, both then and now, has practically no regard for moral values. Modem love of money, pleasure, indulgence and power constitute idolatry as se rious as the idolatry of antiquity which involved graven Images and pagan incantations. Incap able of compromise regarding matters of morality, Ezra In sisted that moral values be given first place in men’s lives. Ezra realized that the only hope for the returned remnant of the Jewish people lay In ex clusiveness of faith. Past and GOLDEN TEXT , "For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and K-semeti to help us against the enemy tn the way: becausj we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our Qod is upon all them for good that seek Him; but His power and His wrath is against all them that for sake Him1 —Hera 8:SB. zatlon, for only those who wished to return to Jerusalem went. To finance the 900-mlle journey Tara was allowed to collect monies from the Jews living In Babylon and from the Babylonians themselves. Artax ercs gave Ezra money from the royal treasury and ordered that the treasuries of Babylon’s sat ellite nations contribute to the return of the Jews if appealed to. In addition, the priests, the Levltes, singers, porters, the Nethinim and the ministers <ft the house of God were given e tax-exempt status; Ezra was commissioned to make inquiries for the king regarding condi tions in Palestine, to enforce the Law of God in Palestine by teaching the ignorant and pun ishing the disobedient. Again, as in Chapter 2, we have a roster of the 1,496 per sons who accompanied Ezra to Jerusalem, and th,e 900 - mile journey was apparently tan-; eventful. Ezra’s R.eav rrayer of con fession (C h ap t e r 9), was prompted by Ills discovery ttjjK. the Jews had intermarried wiWt the pagan idolatrous nation" Baud on copyrlfftted outlines produced I National Coun'" of dtutches ot Christ Pistributed by K<r present experience hod shown that true faith In Jehovah was destroyed by Intermarriage with the pagan peoples about them. If allowed to continue, he an* gued, the divine plan to bring the revelation at God and Hla holy purposes t» the world through the Jewish people would also be destroyed. To prevent this, Ezra de» manded. that the people confess their transgression of the word of God, divorce their pagan wiveo and semi them and their chi' ■tren bock to the wives' homeKi’.-i. Tills the people did, reluctantly, but with resolution. T^nyrh this measure seems harsh and ur latural, It was necessary. There . omes a time In everyone’s life when he must make a c’.-oicebe tween one hard necessity a.id -oV her, and the choice must b. on the side of what Is morally and ethically right. Hqua' with all the evils In the world is that of remaining silent ta the face of situations and social customs c;?tt degrade human bfc.

Original Crush-Proof Pack Back in 1950 we came up with a great idea for a suitcase. Shipping cases. For mortar shells. A combination of materials strong enough to carry (and, obviously, protect) many .pounds of high explosives. We added fiber glass reinforcement. (Ail over, not just on the corners.) Non-$pring locks that wouldn't spring open on impact. And a strong stainless steel frame. And there we had the American Tourister, the world’s first molded suitcase. The rest in history. In 1954, a 3800 lb. car overturned, pinning an American Tourister for 10 hours. There were two small broken places on one side, and nothing in the bag got hurt. In 1961, an American Tourister fell from a car going 70 mph, hit the cqpcrete highway, and skidded 100 feet. There were only a few minor surface scratches. In 1964, an American Touristes blew off a car going 60 mph and another car ran over it Some of the outer cov ering got scuffed. Maybe awful things like this Won’t happen to your American Tourister. Maybe getting throwp into the baggage hold of a plane is all that will happen. But for a lot of other suitcases, thot’s-morothan enough. ' : - C;V^ TRY THE TWffiS CLASSIFIED ADS •mmtmm—mammmmm— ..

Mantinez-Sierra, translated from the Spanish 'by John Garrett Underhill. When Eva LeGallienne added this play to her Civic Repertory schedule in 1927, no one expect ed much from it even with Miss LeGallienne, Josephine-Hutchin son and Beatrice Terry in the cast; but it soared to underlying popularity. When Vagabond Director Anita Grannis included “Cradle Song ’ in her 1967 winter sched ule at the Racine, Wisconsin Theatre Guild, it was named production of the year. Beauti ful costumes designed for this Wisconsin production have been brought to Flat Rock Playhouse for this week. A simple story dramatically told in two acts separated by eighteen years lapse of time, the play gains comedy from the real personalities of the nuns and novices. A baby is left on the convent doorstep. The kind ly doctor adopts the waif and ithe nuns raise her to young womanhood and to love. There is laughter and pathos, joy and a mounting excitement, but all in all a comedy because it ends exactly as it should. The huge cast is headed by Virginia Kerr as Sister Joanna of the Cross, the LeGallienne role. Helen Bragdon is the sharp-tongued Vicaress, and Pat Fuleihan of Brevard, last seen at Flat Rock in 1966 as the Madame in “Strange Bedfel lows,” plays ithe wise Prioress of the convent. Carol Ann Mc Kenzie is the young girl at eighteen. The leading male role, the doctor, only man allowed into the convent, is being played by Jan Clausing, well-known Hen dersonville actor and artist, who recently appeared as General Potter in ‘'Make a Million.” Mack Travis is the young lover, and Tom Campbell, the poet. Maggie Masters, also of Bre vard, is playing Hie important Mistress of Novices, with Denise Eastman, Susan Hurst, Toni Lcugo and Diane Mastroni as the most vocal of her charges. Others appearing as nuns, novices or monitors are: Jan Allred, Susan Bates, Mary Campbell, Harriett Flanagan, Sharon Horansky, Ellen Kelly, Diane LeGrand, Betsy Patter son, Fran Norman and Charlene Richards. Walter OIRourke has designed the Spanish convent settings and supervised technical con struction, assisted by James Twynhsm, Mary Arnold Garvin. Joe Young, Thomas (Merritt and Patrick Ashton. Dick King is stage manager, with Clara Ben nett and Ellen Kelly as prop erty mistresses.
