Patriotism concentration. He also points out that the president can “leave the ' office behind him” and play just 3 as hard. There are pleasant chap ters about his fishing, golfing and, cooking. One of the most appeal ing pictures is that of the late summer weeks spent in Denver with Mrs. Eisenhower’s mother. Here the president and his wife relax and live without ceremony ' in Mrs. Doud’s roomy, old-fash ioned house. They go out little except to church. He has an of- < fice at the Lowry Air Force Base, plays gcU, goes fishing; she rests and sees old friends. The two things that impressed me most in this book were inci dental. One was the enormous expenditure of money and effort involved in culling the daily news about a president’s doings, so that even a simple fishing trip is ac until she was grown. But there was plenty to take the place of the oatmeal. Most of it was raised right on the farm, and the list of fruits and vege tables which they had in season is long and impressive. You will also find some tempting recipes fer watermelon pickles, fried grits, pull-candy and other fav orite delicacies. Other chapters tell of their toys, “book leam- iug,” religion, clothes and parties. There is a section on “Ailments Blue of Winston-Salem and W. McC. Blue of Eagle Springs; and three sisters, Mrs. D.

When the Boy Scouts shanghaied him into the crew of Prairie Wolf Pa trol he had a narrow escape. Then there was that climb to the sec ond balcony of the theatre.

TWO FROM A TEAPOT by Racey Helps (Collins $1.00). We have just discovered this pretty, friendly little book from Eng land. With well drawn pictures on nearly every page, many of them in soft colors, it offers strong attractions for the nursery school age. The story deals with two confident little mice. Miss Tippee and Miss Toppee, and with the cat Tabitha who was deter mined to catch the m. How the two little mice first circumvented her devices and then made a friend of Miss Tabitha makes a warm and satisfying tale. SALES — RENTALS — BUILDING , GEORGE H.

REINER, Executrix of the Estate of Christine Kohring, deceased j9,16,23,30jul7,14c Lesson for July 3, 1955 I S A man subversive if he— has an international outlook? fails to conform to popular styles of patriotism? will not promise to support every war in which his country engages? speaks out against his nation’s sins? In this year of grace 1955, men who fill the above qualifications are cried down as sub-ersive. it has always been so. But in the sight of God, some such men have been honored "abov? their stone-throw ing fellow-citi zens. one such person of record had what ^most people would call a “bad” record accused of subversive activities. He had predicted defeat for his nation while at war, and had pub licly advised surrender. He had a record of jail sentences. He just missed being executed, sev eral times; -and finally died, so tradition says, at the hands of a lynching party. Nevertheless he was one of God’s great prophets. His name was Jeremiah. Professional Patriots Jeremiah’s chief enemies were also called prophets by their con temporaries. History calls them false prophets, though to the “man in the street” of that time they seemed to be the true ones. The false prophets did not really have a word from the Lord; Their words were suggested by what the people wanted to hear. Their ser mons were suggested by their own desire for prestige. They were suggested by their wish for a good income. Not long ago an Ameri can organization, professedly pa triotic, was selling mottoes to put on automobiles, reading “The only good Ism is Americanism,” or some such phrase. The decals with that motto were selling like hot cakes, for people did not like to seem unpatriotic by refusing to buy and carry a slogan like that. But the mayor of tl^e city investigated and as a result the sale of the things was stopped. He discovered that an advertising agency was getting 75% of the money and the “patriotic” organi zation 25%. The real promoters were not patriots, they were profiteers. They would have sold any motto at all for a 75% rake- off. Not every one who hollers for his country is a patriot. Justice for All Nevertheless, just as glass “dia monds” don’t make real diamonds impossible, so false prophets do not destroy the truth of real prophets, and false patriotism does not do away with true love of one’s country. That man Jere miah was a real patriot. That is to say, he had a real love for his people and his land. (Incidentally, he was one of the first persons to call mistreatment of the soil a sin.) The word “prosperity” has a magic sound for most minds. Jeremiah was tough enough to ask questions about the prosperity some people had in his time. He threw pitiless light on the fact that some few were getting rich at the expense of the many. He had what seemed then a strange idea, though it turned out to be true, that the very wealth which was piled up in the palaces of Jerusalem was an unhealthy sign, for to use modern language, the wealth was badly distributed. Most of his fellow-countrymen were under-paid, many of them were slaves, while the king and his court were rolling in luxury. True patriotism asks as Jeremiah did: What is happening to the people, aU the people? and not simply: Am I getting ahead? Leadership Jeremiah preached to the peo ple, but some of his most import ant messages were directed to ithe leaders of his nation, the king, the princes, the priests. He knew that the men at the top make the policies which affect the masses. Jeremiah’s preaching failed to stave off the end which he pre dicted, for the men at the top did not change their ways. The suc cess or failure of a nation depends on the stamina and character of !he people, but especially of the leaders. No one 'can consider him self ' patriotic who votes for a second-rate candidate for public office if a first-rate candidate is available.

But, you keep putting it off. Then here’s just one of the many reasons why you should start g^iing to church—NOW! As an American, you like to come and go where you please, and when. You like to speak what you please, and how. You like to pursue life, liberty,' and happiness as you will. And in these United States you can—because we still have freedom. You can worship in what ever church you choose—or not at all. But this freedom of religion and all our other liberties should not be taken for granted. Throughout free countries, the Church is fighting the peril of com munism, lest individuals be strangled into hopeless, plodding submission. Freedom, then, is reason enough. Go church! Support and uphold the the church for AU, . . . AU FOR THE CHURCH The Church is the greatest fac tor on earth for the buUding of character and good citizenship ft w a storehouse of spiritual values.
