said; “I wholly followed the Lord;
my God.” Against heavy human |
odds Caleb went forth in this sub
lime confidence: “If so be the Lord
will be with me, then I shall be
able to drive them out.” And he
drove them out.
For us practical men it will be
helpful to read what Jehovah pro
mised Joshua; “This book of the
law shall not depart out of thy i
mouth; but thou shalt meditate
therein day and night, that thou
mayest observe to do according to I
all that is written therein”: (If we
have followed this carefully it will
maks us ask ourselves “Well, what
is the promise if all that were
done”?) Here it follows: “For then
thou shalt make thy way prosper
ous, and then thou shalt have good
success."
And the practical part is that we
need a “prosperous way,” a life of
“good success", founded on the
Eternal Rock, instead of on the
sands of time.
I do not have to apologize for
discussing the faith of our fathers
or the “Author and Finisher of our
faith.” I feel a refreshing thrill
when I read the sublime and
heroic expressions of Moses. “As
thy days, so shall thy strength be
. . . The external God is thy ref
uge, and underneath are the ev
erlasting arms.” That was what
Moses said after a long service and
when he looked forward to his un
known burial place in a valley in
the land of Moab.
* * •
It is a mistake to publish the
earnings of big enterprises, I think,
because they are misleading. After
the Governments take their taxes
the stockholders don’t share as
handsomely as the figures might
indicate. Sometimes a large com
pany will publish reports of a lar
ger volume of sales than ever be
fore, then will show smaller prof
its. I recently read statements of
several great power companies, all
showing more business than ever
before, and all showing smaller
profits. Many companies spent mil
lions of dollars for coal because of
low water. One thing you notice;
they pay their taxes; it is the own
ers who bear the loss.

Someone should keep a firm
hand on our National Government.
It is so large that the Congress
men can’t tell what is what. I ven
ture the guess that the Treasury
has hundreds of accounts and
hundreds of balances that Congress
doesn’t know at all. And the Gov
ernment has made loans of bil
lions of dollars that are repaid or
not, and Congress doesn’t know
about them. And the Government
gives away hundreds of millions—
and Congress can’t keep up with
those details, either. Who really
knows what is going on?
We are still giving billions away

we can lift all the earth on our
road to prosperity, but we still
