We are neglecting our freedoms j
that our ancestors ’fought for, died
j for and handed down to us. We are
! not exercising our cherished free-.
| doms—and freedoms unexericsed
! may become freedoms forfeited.
; There is a general laxness that,
grips our country.
In that general laxness, we have
two great losses—on (1) initiative
and (2) public morality.
One of the things that has made
the United States the greatest and
most powerful nation in the history
of the world is just plain, individ-,
ual initiative.
Our ancestors had “initiative in
abundance. It stemmed from their
love of individual freedom. |
We seem to have lost much of

Dr. Henderlite -will speak on the
topic, “Making the Bible the Young
Adult’s Standard for Living To
day.’’ Dr. Henderlite, native of Gas
tonia, N. €., holds several degrees,
has been prominent for several
years in religious work, and has
pin the blame for errors on ■each
other and too little time and effort
trying to put our 'shoulders ! to
gether and correcting the tragic
mistakes that have come from lack
of leadership. We feel something
like a person facing a deadly di
sease for which there is no known
cure. w
The stark fact is that we must !
return to the traditional initiative I
that once was so proudly ours.
There is much concern these

just completed a year • in Japan* days over the seemingly -- low-state
teaching at Kinjo college in Na-' t 0 which morality has fallen in
gayo for the Pre'sbyterian Board j this country.
What I think most of us need to
realize today is that the difference
between right and wrong is not
i just the difference between black
and white. There is a twilight
zone of gray in between which we
must mark out more clearly.
For example, we have recently]
seen exposed on the part of public!
officials acts that are not unlawful..
They did not violate existing laws,!
yet they were unethical if not basi- ^
cally immoral. They seem immor
al to us, but apparently not to the
actors.
This raises the question of what
causes concepts of right and wrong
to vary in interpretatibn among
people.. Certainly a major cause of
any decline in morality is the sense
of lack of security. But I believe
that, as Americans, we have been j
thinking in terms of materialistic
security—of physical and economic!
security.
We have been thinking too little
of spiritual security. Too many of
us have forgotten the church and
the Bible. We must return to
them, for they form our foundation i
for morality. National morality inj
the desired degree will not come
before a sense of moral rebirth in
most of us individually.
We hear much talk about con
fusion and division in our country.
There is confusion and division.
Miss Corinne Moller, national
field representative for the Camp
fire and Bluebird organization, will
be in Clinton March 24-27 to con
duct a training course for leaders
and sponsors. Any persons who

the sessions are invited to do so.

not so-gneat that it cannot be over
come by the people of America
themselves as distinguished from!
their so-called leaders.
Surely, we must not become a
nation of demagogues who lead
mental mutes around with a ring
in their noses. Today America has!
too many people who have become!
mental mutes with their voices sil-!
enced because of fear of criticism!
of what they might say. That is|
moral cowardice. And moral cow
ardice that keeps us from speaking
our minds is as danjgerous to this;
country as irresponsible talk.
The most precious thing that De-j
mocracy gives to us is freedom. You I
and I cannot escape the fact that
the ultimate responsibility for
freedom is personal. Our free
doms today are not so much in
danger because people are con
sciously trying to take them away
from us as they are in danger be
cause we forget to use them.
Freedom may be an intangible,
but like most everything else it can
die because of lack of use. I repeat
with emphasis, freedom unexer
cised may become freedom for
feited.
