Conservation district Six-Inch Sermon By REV. ROBERT H. HARPER The fear a man should try to cul tivate is 4he filial fear of offending God because He is so good. How ever, this type of fear often comes only with the attainment of a high degree of spiritual perception For many men, it would seem, the fear of God must remain at a somewhat inferior, but still highly meritor ious, level. No individual has to be ashamed because the dread of God’s punishments are his major deter rent from wrongdoing. Rather, he has cause for gratitude. Christ once said to His followers: “Work out your salvation in fear and trembling.” Every life is filled with a certain amount of tempta tion and tribulation. Such trials are often God’s way of testing the faith and devotion of His creatures. If they are faced with resolution and courage, the fear gives way to re joicing and the trembling dissolves into a deep serenity of mind and soul. Thus fear, which seems at first glance to imply a rather tawd ry difference to God’s regulations regarding human conduct, becomes in the end a bright and rewarding thing. • The words of Ecclesiasticus bear this out: ‘‘The fear of the Lord is honor and glory; and gladness and a crown of joy.” True fear of God is a fear fed by a will obedient to the word of God. It is part of the virtue of prudence, and a key to the practice of all virtue. Essen tially, it is a fear that by the ill exercise of his own power to choose between good and evil, a man may deserve the punishments that God’s justice imposes on those who rebel against Him.

Truman Rejects Keynoter Job At Convention Washington, May 11.—President Truman has turned down a sug gestion that he keynote the Demo cratic party’s Chicago nominating convention. This was learned from a national committee official who asked not to be named publicly. Despite some oppsotion from within the party, national committee Chair man Frank E. McKinney had asked Truman to, be the keynoter on grounds that he would attract a larger television and radio audi ence than any other speaker. Those who favored him in the role argued that the Democratic presidential nominee is going to have to run on the Truman admin istration’s record and that nobody is better qualified than the Presi dent to outline that record. The committee official told a re porter that McKinney broached the idea to Truman, who turned it down without, however, ruling out the possibility he might address the July convention in some other role. Since the President’^ rejection of .the idea, Gov. Paul A. Dever of Massachusetts is well up on the list of those being considered for the job. 4*> fifteen fantwrs cooperating with the district.

An appeal from a special three- judge federal district court ruling, one that upheld segregation in schools where facilities are equal, was filed today by the National* As sociation for the Advancement of Colored People. The appeal is similar to one filed previously in this same case, one that the high court refused to ac cept because, it said, the record in the case then was incomplete. The NAACP contends simply that segregated schools are unconstitu tional because segregation puts Negro children at a disadvantage socially and that no amount of equal physical facilities can over come such a handicap. ~ • The case was brought in Claren don County’s Smranerton District more than a year ago. It resulted last July in a 2-1 decision uphold ing the equal facilities theory.
