Clayton Rotarians Hear
Talk By Dr. I. G. Greer
"Too many people are basing
their actions . on prejudice", ac
cording to Dr. L G. Greer, presi
dent-: of North Carolina Good
NO 2 . 1 - , .
Health .Association, , who spoke
briefly to the Clayton Rotary Club
Thursday night 1 -
Many of these prejudices, he
said, are' learned in schools and
homes. We -must rise above these
prejudices and not 1 impose . them
on others.
Dr. Greer stated that we have
permitted prejudices to "enter our
public, economic, national and ra
cial ppblems. We must substitute
truth: for them. . . --
.'Truth makes us free; prejudice
makes us slaves, he said. . '
;!We need to secure our desires
by : helping people rather . than
crushing . them. No person's de-
1 Sires should be secured at the ex
pense . of others.
Ut. : Ureer7 stated that for per
manent peace we must depend not
upon armies - but ' upon something
much more fundamental, such as
God or the laws of fair play. -
Poor N. a Health Level
. .North Carolina at the present
time is at a very low level of healt
from which it must lift itself. Poor
health is a 'very expensive prop
osition, . according to Dr.( Greer.
We should have a dotor and a
hospital within reach of every sick
ptrson in the state, the doctor said.
He remarked that civic groups,
such as Rotary, are one of . the
best queans of forming public sent
iment, and stressed the part which
Rotarians can play in working to
wards community, progress. :.. ,
. Dr.- Greer spoke - extemporane
ously and his, talk was informal,
with a great deal of the Humor
for which he is ,well known.'",
' Other visitors'? included H. . C.
Cranford, executive secretary of
the- North . Carolina Good Health
Association, and - Hi N.' Simpson,
editor of the Clayton News.

pages.
Alius 'comparatively amall vol
ume bylrworld-f amous. historian
providesthought-provokihg and
stimulating reading1. In its pages
Toynbee deals with many of the
problems and issues that confront
the world today. He discu ses,
from a clear-sighted, objective
viewpoint, such subjects as the
meaning - of. the present point in
the long view of history, the role
of Christianity -In history, -Russia's
heritage of the totaitarian
state the immediate international
outlook, and the problems of world
unity, -ir . ' ; . -
The volume is actually a series
of r essays, C written at vdiff ereht
dates over a period of some twenty
years. .Nevertheless, it has (a uni
ty of outlook, aim and idea. The
unity of outlook lies in tbe stand
point of a historian who 'sees the
universe, and all within it, 'in a
contnuous,' irreversible movement
through time-space. The common
aim that runs through the series
of papers is to gain, some gleam
of insight into the meaning of
this mysterious spectacle. . The
governing idea is that 'the universe
becomes intelligible to' the extent
of our ability, to apprehand it as
a wholeThe over-all effect is
one of understanding our civiliza
tion in its relation to history, and
of the road we must take if we
are to save ourselves' from . dis
aster. ; -L - ' .
"Civilization on Trial" is intend
ed for the general reader. It is
more personal than the author's
longer historical i works and is, -In
fact, a key to aiunderstanding of
Toynbee himself.
