The Moscow Turnover
Three top . Communists- have
been given the boot in Moscow
arid the significance of this new
shake-up is of transcendent im
portance to Americans. A tenta
tive opinion Is that the change is
definitely for Ihe better, for the
' ;v:M. Molotov, Georgi M. Mal
enkov' and L. M. Kanganovich
the three top Russians ousted are
all Stalinists. They represent that
"faction in the Presidium and the
Prty' Central Committee which
advocates the traditional, ruthless
Stalin philosophy of government.
'. Reports from Moscow Indicate
that Defense Minister Georgi K.
Zhukov blocked an attempt by
these three Stalinists, and others,
to overturn the government head-1
ed by Nikita Khrushchev and
Priemer Nikolai Bulganin.
'Khrushchev has said repeated
ly that he would like to see Rus
sia .live in peaceful coexistence
With the rest of the wforld. While
We do not believe, everything
, Khrushchev says, we believe he is
less likely to plunge the world in
to war, or to start little wars,
tan such figures as V. M. Molo
tov. yOt alj the political, leaders in
Moscow, Molotov .was probably
Oe greatest blackmailer and mur-
derer' of them all Any move
which removes him' from off ice is
a gam for the West ; ' J
Progress In J
Small Towns
- The small town of America is
where the progress of our coun
try to; madef i It to in the, small
town where its residents are unit
ed, often homogeneous and fully
patriotic.
It is in the small towns thatj
community projects and self-improvement
reach their fullest ex
pression. Community pride and
good citizenship are often more
apparent in the small towns of
the United States than in larger
cities;
In addition, life is more whole
some and probably healthier. The
product of . the small town the
average U. S." citizen is usually
a more likable, citizen, and a bet
ter balanced one, according to
psychologists. This does not mean'
that those from the metropolitan
areas are abnormal or unattrac
tive citizens, but it merely means
thai the edge goes to those from
the small towns the typical U. S.
community.
Business is realizing the advan
tages available in small towns and
many of the large corporations are
moving their huge plants to the
smaller towns of thetiation. More
and more, the country's top exec
utives and the wealthiest citizens
are moving to small towns, where
they can enjoy a slower pace of
life, a more normal and a more
wholesome life. :
While the great metropolitan
areas are wonderful to visit, con
taining amazing examples of en
gineering genius and business and
industrial activity, it is the small
town and the rural community
which is the backbone of America
and where the real progress the
real Americanism from the grass
roots is to be found.
1957 Passing Fast
. With the near approach of Au
gust the eighth month of the
year one is reminded that two
thirds of 1957 will have passed in
to history at its end. This is hard
to realize. After August, of
course, comes September the
month in which fall begins, with
Halloween, Thanksgiving and
Christmas not fa behind.
1 August' is the last month, of va
cation for millions of youngsters,
who will soon be going back to
school. It is also the las) month
of Summer, weather, in the more
northern climes. - . ,
The coming of Autumn, how-
ever, 'to not an unpleasant thought
for many, for Autumn has its own
beauty and many think that it is
the prettiest and most pleasant of
all the seasons. This to because
he weather to often clear, erisp
and cool, the earth still retaining
much of the Summer heat, there
by making for brisk but not too
severe nights and pleasant days.
If you haven't taken your vaca
tion yet, take it in August. The
break in the routine of life will
do y6u good: However, if you
plan to drive, drive carefutty, so
you- can return home to see an
other August."' .

The Book of Ruth is a prose
poem, whicn ine great uerman
poet, Goethe, once described as
the' loveliest : litue epic ana
IiayuiC wnous which iuaa. tunic
down to us." It was one of the
five Rolls read at. certain times
in the synagogues, thia being used
at Jfeniacosi, or ine greai icsuvai
of the harvest. , I
There is no certainty as to the
time it was written, but it ' was
'certainlv composed much; later
than the time" in which the story
is set, for reference is made td the
customs as being of former times.
There are many views as to the
purpose of the book. Some think
it was written in protest against
the narrow antipathy of the Jews
against foreigners during the time
of Ezra and Nehemiah, which re
quired that all foreign wives be
divorced. On the other hand,
Matthew Henry considers the les
son of the book in . "its design to
lead to Providence, to show us
how conversant it is about , our
private concerns, and to teach us,
in them all, to have an eye to it,
acknowledge God in all our ways
and in all events that concern us."
' Considering its picture of ideal
family life quite natural in the Bi
ble, dealing with human and di;
vine, Dr. Alexander Maclaren
thinks," surely it would be no un
worthy object to enshrine in its I .
oases a oicture of the noble Work- rKJ-.i
ings of that human love which
makes so much of human life.'V
The story opens with a picture
of famine in Palestine during the
period of the Judges. Apparently
i fearful- of it rMiilta. a Hebrew.
f i named Elimelech, migrated, with I
his wife, Naomi, and two tons, ,
Mahlon and Chilion, to Moab,
across the Jordan River, where j
-1 . m
a f&w years, Elimelech died, i his) ,
two Bonf married airls ther had ' !
rr.pt In Mnnh and. shortlv thereaf- im
ter, they, too, died; leaving the
widow, Naomi, with her two,
daughters, Ruth and Orpah. Af
ter a stay of ten years in Moab,
Naomi, now an old woman, decid:
ed to return to tier home in Beth
lehem. y- Mi
Her. two daughters-in-law ac
companied Naomi a part of .the
way. Naomi, realizing the situa
tion, advised the younger women
to return to their native- land).
where they might again find hus,
bands. Orpah agreed and 'left
them, but Ruth decided to accom
pany Naomi, although in doing so,
accoraihgt6 the custenr of-; the
times, she was casting her lqt to
share . with her mother-in-law. dn
a new nationality, an uncertain
destiny; a different; religion, and,
.finally, a common burial placei
Ruth's action was a definite break
with her past but a wonderful
tribute to the love and wisdom of
her mother-in-law.
"In our. desire to honor r the
courage and charm of Ruth's- de
votion," says James Moffatt, we
moderns are apt to do some in
justice to Orpah . . . In returning
to her native land and refusing io
be a burden to the older woman.
she acted according to Oriental
standards, wisely and ever as
both she and Naomi felt,. in a true
spirit of kinfiness."
However, as one writer declar
ed, "Surely,, there was never a
finer example of the self-devotion
characteristic of women than that
exhibited by Ruthr She was not
leaving her house to become the
inmate of a palace y . , on the con-1
trarv she was to be the sole com- T
panlon Of an aged and desolate I
woman, horne down by grief and A
ooverty. With the apparent cer
tainty that constant toil in a
strange land was henceforth to be
her. oort'on." As a foreigner in
Judah, she could naturally expect
no possibilitv of marriage.
Arriving in Jiidah about ( th
time at harvest Ruth ws ent bv

relative of the family. Boaz. Ruth
