effort to prescribe the , state's

o 15 years as so much wasted
money. 1 "
As usual, the boys in Raleigh
forgot, in proposing this, over
all program, all about the for
gotten Albemarle section of the
state, at least until sometime be

l ; iThe Spying Game
.i? Although governments never
talk about it, nor ' government
. officials, the spying game is an
all-out one these days. The re
. cent nervousness and resentment
of Soviet Russia, to U. S. spy
ing activities, is the best ex
ample. .
'A few weeks ago the Russians
announced . that they : had cap
tured another 4 U. S. spy, and
claimed that he was trained by
the master spy-trainer, Billy

ant to this nation's securty that
our intelligence system function
efficiently inside Russia today.

14:24-27. J - '

1 i, x
Today we cohtunw with our
series on "God's Way i his
tory." And .n today Christians
mav promaniy examine ; tne
question of: How
work' in history? '
Beginning with verse , five of
chapter1 10 in the Book of Isaiah,
we find a section on the judg-
Pmen , (of Go against Assyria,
which country the Lord had cho-
ken to defeat all those nations
which had put their trust In
false gods. Assyria,, however,, had
become somewhat s intoxicated
with her own success, thinking
it was in large measure due to
her wisdom, and that the subju
gation of the Israelites proved
that God had - now. power; As
syyia. therefore, entertained
dreams of world domination, and
it was therefore necessary that
the Lord denfonstrate to" them
his power. - . -
In the somewliat chaotic times
in which we live, many are per
plexed by the questions; does our
life on this planet have; mean
ine and purpose: is there any
rhyme or reason to things? , The
Christian answer is a, resound
ing and vigorous "y' " That
answer is deeply rooted inv the
convictions of the Hebrew . pro
phets; who, living in times no
less chaotic than outs, never
theless viewed, all thing -as
working together in conformity
to the grand design! of one su
preme God. They steadfastly be-
lieved that such a God was, ac
tively present in every event in
the history, of man.. Caxv.we,
as Christians, accept "any lesser
belief? ' -:', &
Studviiia recent history,' we(
are comrontea . wiin wppureu
contradictions and chaos, ' the
meaninglessness. of world events.
Less than twenty years ago, uer
many was our mortal enemy, a
foe whom we must destroy at
all costs.' - Once Germany was
crushed under overwhelming de
feat, everyone agreed that she
must never again be permitted
tobecome an industrial giant or
a military power. And during
those years, Russia was our
friend and ally, tor. whom we
poured ' out billions in money
and material, and for whom
many, a snip anq crew wrai
down in-, the icy grey waters oi
the North Atlantic, i -Today, con-
Isider how tne roles are eversid!
How on earth can we reconcile
the apparent )contradctk)n; . an,l
meMnglesrf'cdfrfusion bf events'
in our own generation alone,
with a belief in God's ever-pres
ent care and wisdom?
There are no easy . and trite
answers trt these oroblems. But
such answers as we can bring,
support "uie mind with reason
and the heart with hope, swa
before we- consider finding .m
reasonable.' and acceptable an
swer a lost cause, we should
pause long enough, to consider
the alternative to belief in di
vine orovidence. If there Is no
rational ' purpose ' for v our exist
ence,"1 no redemptive pattern 'In
history, no Sovereign God, th
the impersonal forces of nature
will have the last word with us.
Yes, if at times we find it diffi
cult to believe in duvine provi
dence, we should look squarely
at what remains if we abandon
it " .
' It is reasonable to assume that
eras of chaos and contradiction
are only provisional! , It Is rea
sonable, also, to assume that of
ten what appears to be' utter
ly meaningless may be attri'-ut
ed to our , lack of pespect.
For a casual visitor, unacqua.
ed' with1'modenr building- teti
niques,1 ihe activity on a budd
ing site-, would .seem quite, yr.a
out purpose; a jumble of d V
es, holes, cables, pipes, ' stai -s
of materials, and a host of
workmen busy at , what are
parefttly unrelated tasks. E-t
the layman had . the perspe'"
of the superintendent of .
struction, he would see t'
everything fits into a .i hit
plan, and will finally ccutri'
to the construction of a L
some and . functional build
So, even what appears to- us
