-Next Case:
The Red Cross
Christmas Seals, the Crippled
Children drive, the March of Dimes,
v the Heart Fund, several other charv
ity drives and now the annual Red
Cross Drive! This series of calls
; upon the average citizen seems to
- get monotonous and we often hear
1 complaints that one just cannot
. contribute to all these meritorious
causes.
': But when one considers our kind
oX government, and the fact that
charity is the main financial sup
v port of humanitarian and medical
i efforts to eliminate these killers
i from the American scene we realize
' it is both an honor and a privilege
to live in a free country where we
are merely asked to contribute- to
BuEh praiseworthy causes, and not
levied with an assessment by an
all-powerful government.
In our free government we have
the right to contribute to these
charitable causes or not contribute.
And every citizen should meet this
responsibility and contribute to
them whenever possible, appreciat
ing the fact that this opportunity
;is one by which we can demonstrate
.both our good citizenship and the
. merits of our social system in the
United States.
The Red Cross drive, now under
lay, deserves your support. De
spite the fget that it is not a per
fect organization, and never will
he, it stands for the right things in
our society, kindness, emergency
' aid and even medical aid in epi
demic ,pr plague areas. The Red
Cross is a world-wide symbol of the
; good neighbor spirit, which means
aid for those who need it badly in
times of emergency.
We urge citizens of this com
r munity to support the Red Cross
: drive .this year with contributions
as liberal as they can afford.
What To Do In
An Atomic Attack
: v i The United States Atomic Ener
gy Commission has issued a long
report on the effect of the hydro-
. gen bomb explosion in the Pacific
last year. The report for the first
time tells of the extent- of blast,
heat apd radiation -damage caused
by the bomb explosion.
The blast, heat damage and di
rect radiation exposure (from the
blast are somewhat understood.
The AEC says, however, that prop
er precautions, even ' in the blast
area. can save many, lives. - v
The AEC report ; specifies these
safety measures which should be
taken in the event of a hydrogen
bomb explosion: '1 Avoid expos
ure by staying indoors, or taking
shelter in a basement or a bomb
shelter. (By staying indoors on the
first floor of an ordinary frame
house can reduce the danger level
by at least fifty per cent.) '
2 Avoid any falling dust or ash
that can be seen downwind within
hours after a nuclear explosion, un
til such dust or ash is tested by
a radiation detection instrument.
3. Avoid eating solid foods or
drinking- liquids which may contain
fall-out particles.
4. If there is any chance that
fall-out particles have come into
contact with the skin, hair or cloth
ing, bathe the hody thoroughly
with soap and water, and change
clothing completely.
We would suggest that all read
ers memorize these safety steps.
They may one day save many
American lives.

CHRISTIE LOVE
International Sunday School
Lesson for March 6, 195$.
Memorv Selection: "'Beloved, if
God so loved us, we ought also to
love one another."' I John 4;11.
Lesson Text: Acts 2:42-47;
Colossians 3 :1 2-16; I Jobp i :7.
The nresent condition of, our
world is a matter of great concern
to many Christians. Some are
tempted to ask how or why Gpd
permits these things to happen.
.We venture the statement that it
is not God who is responsible for
the terrible things which are hap
pening in the world today! " The re
sponsibility rests solely , on " man
and, as the poet Burns said, "Man's
inhumanity to vman. makes count
less thousands mourn." . - ;
We need to face the fact that one
of the most important, if not the
only cause, of the condition pf the
world is a lack of love love of
God and love of one's fellowman.
The Christian religion is Unique in
its emphasis upon love. No .other
religion has a God whose nature is
love and grace. . No other religion
has been able to make its supreme
appeal for acceptance and loyalty
on the ground of voluntary love.
One of the sorest needs of the!
world today is for a demonstration
of Christian love. The world should
be able, rightfully, to look to the
followers of Jesus Christ, for ex
amples of the love way of life. If
Christians, the world over, yrpuld
exemplify the Saviour's love for all
men everywhere and apply - His
principles of love in all relations of
life, the effects would be felt
throughout the world. V
A clever lawyer, hoping to. con
fuse Jesus, asked him the question, I
"Which is the great commandment
in the law?" Jesus unhesitating
ly quoted Deut. 6:5, "Thou IshaH
love the Lord thy God with all thy
heart, and with all thy soul,' and
with all thy mind." However, rea
lizing that one could demonstrate
his love for God in only one way,
Jesus then added, "And the second
is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself."
What did Jesus mean wjyen he
added the second commandment?
Simply that if one truly loves God,
he is bound to love others. ' There
fore, one's protestation that he tru
ly loves God, which is not demon
strated in a life of love and service
to others, will hardly carry convic
tion. A love-filled heart will he an
unselfish ; heart, a compassionate
htart, a helpful heart.
The story of the activity of the
early Christians is interesting. We
are told that they continued in fel
lowship, the breaking of bread and
nrayers, and that many wonders
nnrl siirns were done. Many of
them sold their worldly possessions
and goods in order to provide for
their brethren who were m neef
Surely, this is a rebuke to the self
ishness prevalent in our own day.
As a result of their faith and belief
they "took their food with glad
ness and singleness of heart, prais
ing God and having favor with aV
the people."
Paul, in writing to the believers
at Colossi, pointed out to then?
some of the fruits of Christian fel
lowship and love. "Put on, there
fore . . ."kindness, humbleness ojf
mind, meekness,. long-suffering'
He points out that, .before they
were converted, they were guilty
of the sins of anger, wrath, malice,
blasphemy, and lying. But, now
that they were Christians, thejrj
were to drop all that, just as a man
would drop a dirty old coat when a
new one is offered, and seek to it-.
coroorate into their lives traits
which would show to the world that
they had put off the old life of sn
and put on a new life in Jesus
Christ. Above all, they must prac
tice the love and charity toward
each other which would bind them,
together in CJiritsian fellowship. )f
they did not love one another, theyi
would not be able to fellowship
gether and their efforts at esta
Hshing a church would fail,
Our passage, taken from I John,
was written, of course, by John, the
beloved disciple. The purpose ,-of
this gospel was to strengthen the
faith of tbe,.CJmstiar(s jaearny, for
whose benefit John set forth in
memorable words the contents of
his own personal faith. The epistle
tells about the love of God, loye
among .'those who follow. Jestty,
Christ's sacrifice to atone for hu
man sin. and the eternal life re
served for those who' believje. r.
John appealed to his readers to
put away anger, 'tatred aiuf di'a-

Thank you, God, for my baby . . . and help

little bit of humanity . .' . so innocent . .'
.untouched by the many evils of the world.
There is so much to teach him, and You have
.chosen me to be his teacher. You have placed
a soul .in my clumsy hands, and I am humble
before your gjft.
How sreU I realize that in my wonderful task
. I need the help of the greatest Teacher ;. . Your
help.' My constant prayer will be for guidance
. . to that I may teach my son what is right . . .
to that I may set his tiny feet in the right direc

little mind into the right channels. :
1 And when the time comes, my son will go
to Church .. . . because the Church is Your
liome 6a earth', and there in Your presence all
that I have tried to show him will have' true
