The Christian Motive for Liv
Leuon for October 29: P*alm
4:5-8; Luke 4:4; John 6:35; Ro
man* 12:1,2; 13:12-14.
Golden Text: Colotsiant 3:1.
Having in mind the golden text
as the sum of a Christian’s motive
for living, let us examine the
texts found in the lesson.
The foundation motive should
he trust in God—his life should
he one of faith in the eternal
Goodness. Next, in harmony with
a text Jesus quoted in vanquishing
the tempter, a Christian should
seek to know and live by obedi
ence to the word of God.
In Jesus we will find the life of
the soul, spiritual sustenance.
‘‘Bread is the staff of life,” a
food universally used. As bread is
food for the body, Jesus is
food, life, to the soul. Through
faith in him we may have spirit
ual, eternal life.
The motives to live by trust in
God, obedience, and faith in Je
sus must lead, and will, to the
sacrifice of the body. Through
the organs of sense man works
the will of his heart. His eyes may
see the needs of his fellows, ears
hear the cry of distress, the ton
gue may "whisper words of good
counsel”, his feet take him on er
rans of good, and his hands lov
ingly minister.
And the consecration of these
makes a "living sacrifice.” Let the
Christian be ready to die for his
Lord rather than be untrue. But
he is called first to live for Jesus
Doing this, and realizing that the
night is far spent,” his consum
ing motive will be to put off “the
works of darkness” all evil, and
wa/k a"d live daily as putting
on the TiftrH .Trqiiq 99

FIRE! FIRE! FIRE!
Mary: “George! George! the
barn is on fire! 1 can’t see any
blaze — just smoke coming out
of the roof. Where is that fire
extinguisher?”
George: “I think it’s in the cel
lar near the furnace. Bring it
over to the barn while I hook the
hose up to the fire hydrant!”
George rushes out, finds the
fire hose but takes two minutes
to locate the "key” to turn on
the fire hydrant. Hooks up hose
and runs with nozzle to a ladder
leading to hayloft. Rushes back
and tries to turn on hydrant. It
has not been turned on for five
years and had rusted somewhere
down below. George put all his
weight on the key and finally
something gave—but it was the
wrong “thing”, and instead of
running through the hose, water
just shot up in the air in a gey
ser. It didn’t require very deep
thought to realize that this “sure
fire” protection was useless—un
til mended.
Mary had not yet appeared with
the fire extinguisher so George
rushes to the house just as Mary
emerges with it. He starts to tell
her what he thinks of all women
in general and of her in particu
lar—but she floors him with the
news that she finally “got
through” to the fire house in the
village and George had to realize
that this was the only effective
thing done so far. He rushes to
barn, climbs ladder and—holding
his breath—sticks his head above
the floor level of the loft. The
loft is full of smoke, as no ven
tilation had ever been provided,
so George backs down, moves a
ladder against the outside of the
building and opens hayloft door.
The draft causes smouldering hay
to ignite. George turns the fire
extinguisher upside down, opens
the cock—and nothing happens.
The poor old extinguishes had
gone dry years ago. I
So by the time the volunteer
fire fighters are assembled and
arrive, the upper part of the
barn is a seething mass of flames,
and Gfeorge and Mary have lost
their winter hay, a lot of grain,
the harness, the milk cow and
all manner of essential odds and
ends. The horses luckily were
turned out for over the week-end
There was no insurance. I
And this is what usually hap
pens. No one ever has time for a
fire drill or even to make an in
spection of the fire fighting appa
ratus every six months or so.
George found out later that the
hose would have burst anyhow
because it had hung on a nail
for four or five years and becorrte
badly “creased.” It developed lat
er that George had cured the
hay carefully before storing it,
but as the roof was in bad repair j
and as leaks had developed every
once in a while—the conclusion
was that water had leaked down
into the hay and that lack of
ventilation had created a condi
tion favorable to “internal com
bustion.” George and Mary are
working for someone else now
and the bank owns the farm.
Forty thousand farm buildings
burned last year, with a loss of
3,500 human lives. The causes
were many and most of them ac
countable to neglect. Among the
outstanding causes were:
Defective heating systems.
Defective electrical wirir^g.
Inflammable roofing.
Lightning where there were no
Internal combustion in hay.
Rubbish.
Storing gasoline.
Smoking.

Associate Editor, Parents' Magazine
AS WE DO TO "THE LEAST
OF THESE”
A little perspective is always
needed for self-evaluation. So for
the moment pul your children
out of your mind, and ask your
self, “If I were a child would I
like myself as a parent?”
For example, when you were
little didn’t you enjoy most those
grownups who obviously liked
children, not just you yourself
because you meant something
special to them? The British tell
us that the most engaging thing
about our soldiers is their genu
ine fondness for youngsters. It's
a trait Americans have to a
marked degree. If you lack it,
however, it doesn’t necessarily
make you a Monty Woolley. But
if you are a parent it would be
well to cultivate a liking for chil
dren, in general if only for the
added warmth this will contribute
to your love for your own family.
Now few of us are equally at
tracted to all ages of children.
You, for instance, may adore ba
bies, but you may be squeamish
about rough and tumble school
children or stand-otfish with the
teens. Or you may actually recoil
from infants and be endlessly at
tracted by bumptious eight-year
olds. All right, face the fact of
your natural preference in types
and ages of children, but resolve
that you won’t let it make any
difference in your relations with
your growing family. Too many
mothers who take wonderful care
of their babies seem almost to be
come antagonistic when the child
is old enough to be a person in
his own right. So resolve further
to find the most rewarding rela
tionship for every stage of your
child’s growth. There will be
lovely stretches of easy compan
ionship, then times when you
seem as far apart as the poles. 1
That is one of many reasons why
parents must keep their love flow
ing steadily to their children,
for the times when they seem to
reject it are the very times when
they need it most.
But just as a heart open to all
children you meet makes you a
person children like and trust, so
compassion for children the world
over adds to your stature and
usefulness as a citizen.
The plight of children in many
countries has grown worse year
by year as mortal danger has been
followed by malnutrition and
disease. Yet in this country our
children have actually benefited
during these tragic years through
our awakened sense of responsi
bility to all children. We are bet
ter parents because we have
learned the truth of the teaching
that (to paraphrase, the Bible
text) as we do to “the least of
these" so we do to the Creator of
us all. And we are a stronger
and better people because we
have accepted the responsibility
for bringing a happier, safer
childhood to the world’s children
not just those fortunate enough
to be born in the U.S.A.

r Revenue’s Rolling In—
From Manteo to Murphy
"Well, colonel, I see that the
beer industry paid considerably
over $8,000,000 taxes in the state
last fiscal year," Abner Aiken
p«iH to Colonel Bain when he
was in town recently.
Colonel Bain’s the beer com
mittee’s state director, you know.
"Big money, I call it,” he
went on. "Legitimate revenue
that we should see is protected.
And I, for one, am glad to see
you protectin’ it.
"Your self-regulation program,
backed as it is by just about all
the beer retailers, is a great idea.
"Clean people, conductin’
business in a clean way—that’s
what appeals to Tarheel folks.
Power to you, colonel.' And power
to you postwar, too—when we’ll
really need this tax money!’’
Fromwhere I sit, Abner spoke
mighty good sense. What’s more.

About a year ago, I first used
ALKA-SELTZER
I find that it eases my Aching
