Roosevelt's call to the people of the
United Spates for a day of prayer in
connection with their present effort

The human mind turns too easily
to its own petty planning. It begins
too often with merely material meas
ures. It forgets that defense is first
of all spiritual and mental. Only by
understanding the true nature of
man shall we perceive the false na

has had in years.
A Worth While Project
What ever other steps are requir
ed, defense begins with thinking.
Even economic, diplomatic, or mili-
j tary measures begin there. And
thought which abides under the
' "shadow of the Almighty" will be
neither hysterical nor apathetic,
i will know risrht from wrong, will
have the wisdom to design and the
resolution to carry through whatever
measures may be necessary.

racy that grants license for political
featherweights to reveal themselves.
The statesmen will be revealed, too
perhaps by contrast!
THE CONCEPTION OF THE
STATE AS POLITICAL ENTITY is
nnt bo complex when the verbal
plummage of the scholars is elimi
nated. There are just two motions
for all practical purposes. First,
the state is a political unit, however
organized, that owns the people.
In that case there is nothing to argue
about universal military service
Second, the state is a political unri
organized by the people for theii
own protection. In this instance the
people own the state. Mere citizen
ship confers part ownership in the
state. Ownership infers responsibil
ity for the thing owned. That for
which we are responsible we must
defend, protect. That obligation is
inherent in ownership. The citizen
of the United States is a part owner
of the state. It is his inherent obli
gation and duty to protect and de
fend the same. How? ' In such man
ner as the majority of his fellow
co-owners of the state through prop
erly selected representatives see fit
to designate as best for the whole.
That perhaps is universal . service to
the state military or otherwise.
n-nm P.ruiTltV-
There can be no question but that
we need an adequate gymnasium for
our school children. The fulfillment
of this need would add much to ath
letics in this county; and the same
Knilninir could be used to serve the
community in a hundred different
ways.
Mainly, a gymnasium is a place
for basketball games and at the
present time our court at the, high
school is poorly arranged and equip
ped for such play, but a modern
gymnasium could serve as a com
munity house as well as a basketball
court, thus benefitting everybody.
A suggestion The Weekly might
make at this point would be that if
the idea reaches maturity and actual
ly becomes a project . . . that sugges
tion would be to build the building
on some downtown lot giving easy
access for those who would attend
meetings as well as athletic contests
staged in it
But back to the idea ... it is
sound ... it is something that we
need and we should have it. The
Weekly salutes the Rotary Club foi
sponsoring the idea and offers its
services in any way the committee
might use it. s
weapons ordinarily scorned. Jehos
haphat and the people of Judah
prayed for help and wisdom in de
fending themselves against the Moa
bites and Ammonites, and their ene
mies destroyed one another. Elisha
was directed how to turn back the
hosts of the King of Syria.
Sometimes the defenders were not
required to fight; sometimes they
were guided as to the means to use.
But always by beginning with the
preparedness of prayer, they found
protection and peace. Christian

THE SENATE, DEMOCRACY
LICENSE. The days through which
we are passing are, no doubt, hectic
davs. Days in which we find the
sins of mankind coming home to
roost. Because the shortcomings ol
mankind are quite general and m no
sense limited to one race or one na
tion we find the roosting places of
the spawn of mankind's weakness
pretty well distributed over the face
of the earth. However great or lit
tle may be the responsibility of this
nation for the chaos that envelopes
the world the fact remains that to
date we are one great power un
touched by the direct scourge of
war. For that we should be grateful
to the greatest degree our souls are
capable of gratitude. That sense of
