I V V $ M THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Clinton, S. C„ Thursday, April 23, 1964 EVERYDAY COUNSELOR ■r “There’s no free lunch!” This is one of the most powerful speeches I’ve ever heard. Some years ago this five-word speech was delivered by a very wise man in the business field. He was in the midst of a discussion of the demands of pressure groups trying to force their opin ions upon the nation and using the government to do it. There is a growing temptation to view the federal government as a kind of combination Santa Claus and policeman. The United States Declaration of Independence says, ”We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of hap piness , . That does not mean man should hot give an “honest day’s work for an honest wage.” All men are created equal in the sight of God. They, should have equal opportunity to earn their livelihood and become use ful members of society. America has been the land of opportunity. It is so today. In creasingly, these opportunities of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are being opened to eople of all races. Along with these rights comes the opportun ity and obligation to work and give an “honest day’s work for an honest wage.” It has been said that there is no royal road to knowledge. It can be likewise said that there is no high speed elevator to suc cess. There is a ladder, not an elevator, and this ladder has to be climbed round by round. The necessity of climbing the' ladder from the bottom to the top seems to be far from the thinking of too many today. It is true with young people who graduate from school and go to work in the business world. They like to step in where their father has stepped off. They want jobs with security, fringe benefits, short hours, not the jobs of am bitious risk and burning of the midnight oil. There are groups which think that pressure is the way to achieve. It is, but the pressure should be applied from within, pressing us to step out and achieve. It is not pressure applied from without to give us something we have not earned. If all the money in the world were gathered together and di vided out equally among all the inhabitants, how long do you think it would stay divided equally? There is still ample place in the world for men who are wil ling to climb the latter of suc cess to true achievement. I re member seeing a cartoon some time ago portrajring a small log cabin at the floot of a cliff and a tall ladder leading upward to a high ledge on which was located the “White House.” The cartoon was published February 12, Ab raham Lincoln’s birthday. It was captioned, “The ladder is still there.” xrRwn NASHVUM TINNfSSK THE WORLDS MOST WIDELY USED DEVOTIONAL GUIDE Read I Corinthians S:l*-17 Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (D Peter 3:IS.) The writer of II Peter exhorted those to whom he was writing to “grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.” He knew it was gloriously possible for men and women like ourselves, imperfect though we are, to become Christ-like in aim, desire, and purpose. The Apostle Paul did not become a perfect Christian the moment he heard Christ speak to him on the road to Damascus. No, that was only the beginning. He grew into the Christ-like man he became. Day by day, he lived in close fellowship with his Lord, and the result was that he became more and more like “The measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ” is not achieved in a moihent; it is a process of growth and develop ment. If we live with Christ, we grow like Him. He gives us power to become what He wants us to be—people who are like Him in all our ways. PRAYER Eternal God, so guide us in daily life that aO we do may contribute to our growth in Christ-ttkeness. Mo ment by moment may we become different men and — women; different because we are becoming more like Thee; through Christ our Lord. Amen. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY No one can stand still who lives in daily fellowship with the Son of God. South Carolinian In Washington bj Brent Breedin IF YOU DON’T MCAn THE CHRONICLE YOU DON'T GET THE NEWS PHONE 8324641 THURMOND VS HUMPHREY Senators Strom Thurmond and Hubert Humphrey (D-Minn.) continued their interesting CBS Reports televised “civil righta" debate of two weeks ago on the Senate floor last week. Hum phrey, Senate Democratic Party Whip and rumored choice of President Lyndon Johnson for the 1964 vice-presidential nomi nation, found the South Carolina Senator at his best on both oc casions. A student of both history and Constitutional law—particularly where “civil rights” legislation is concerned, Senator Thurmond drove his Minnesota colleagues to cover in discussion of the le gality of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. Commented Senator Humphrey after more than an hour of frus trating head • knocking with Thurmon: “I am going to take a law examination when I am through with this bill, and I hope to pass.” Quipped the South Carolina Senator: “I hope the Senator will pass; but I suggest that he study the Constitution a little more.” WILL JOHNSON DEBATE? Few programs this writer has watched on television have sur passed pure debate for interest and excitement. Turn loose two or more knowledgeable and ar- ticuate persons on a controvers ial subject and the best Holly wood director can’t improve up on what follows. The Atlanta newspapers made a similar observation following the Thurmond-Humphrey debate and, of course, we are all famil iar with the Nixon-Kennedy de bates and the effect they had on the Presidential election of 1960. The question now arises: Will President Johnson debate the Republican nominee later this year? The answer: Not if he can pos sibly avoid it. He’ll instead let ft be known that it’s beneath the dignity of the President to debate a mere candidate. How ever, Americans’ sense of fair play could force him before the cameras just the same—particu larly if the Republican nominee is Richard Nixon, who may have lost to Kennedy four years ago because of his willingness to ac cept the Kennedy challenge. SHAKESPEARE, DORN. NIXON Our United States government was born 175 years ago with the inauguration of George Washing ton as first President on April 30, 1789. Four hundred years ago —in 1594—William Shakespeare was born. Today in the city of Washington only two blocks from the Capital itself, Louis Wright of Central, S. C., is direc tor of the Folger Library which houses the world's greatest col lection of Shakespereana and re lated source material. Appropri ately enough, Dr. Wright is also acknowledged as one of the world’s leading authorities on Shakespeare and as a wit in his pirforniici for everyday owner driving! i raw * hi LYNN COOPER, Inc East Carolea Aye. ?— to <*lNG FO« A 4000 MW CAST LOOK SOS TM "VAUJt-KATBr SWN AT VOUK OLDS KIAUni own right. He is frequently re ferred to as “the Folger’s resi dent Puck” . . . Rep. W. J. Bry an Dorn is expected to decide between now and the end of 1966 whether to pursue a lifelong am bition to represent South Caro lina in the U. S. Senate. There’s an excellent chance he’ll be named chairman of the House Veterans Committee between now and 1968, the logical time for him to campaign actively for a Senate seat. In such event, he would have to weigh seriously the gamble involved in giving up the power of a House committee chairmanship for a chance to win election to a job which pays no more money. If Congressman Dorn decides to take the plunge, he would likely commence an unofficial campaign following anticipated re-election to the House in 1966 . . . More and more it looks like Richard Nix on will be on the Republican ticket this fall. In spite of appar ent Democratic solidarity in the South today, a Republican ticket of GOldwater-Nixon or Nixon- Goldwater would offer an inter esting contrast to voters concern ed with the “civil rights” bill’s pressures of President Johnson and his most highly publicized likely running mates — Hubert Humphrey, Bobby Kennedy and Sargent Shriver. Other Republi can candidates — Rockefeller, Scranton and Lodge — would seem to have little appeal in the minds of Southern independents. Don’t forget, 188,558 South Caro linians voted for Mr. Nixon in 1960, more votes than any other presidential candidate has ever received in the state except for the late John F. Kennedy who polled 198,129 in the same elec tion. CITATION FOR LETTERS OF ADMINISTRATION The State of South Carolina, County of Laurens By J. H.

Every gardener knows human ingenuity cannot be sub stituted for the miracle of growth. God’s secret is God’s! But he knows, too, that wild growth means wilderness. Only cultivation makes a garden. So he works with God. And the result is beauty, fruit fulness, abundance. What the man with the green thumb practices in his back yard, the Church inspires across the whole expanse of human effort . . . the cultivation of souls . . . the realization of our spiritual potential. Working with God! What do YOU think life is meant to be? Wilderness? Or the Garden of God? Join us at Church next Sunday!
