Friday, September 21, 1945 CAMDEN SHOULD KEEP EYES AHEAD Triumphant recalling of Camden’s historic past is no substitute tor pride in the present or faith in the future. Too much emphasis on accomplishments of the past can b6 likened to the Wa-Wa bird, which is said to fly backward, because it is interested only in what is behind it. A Wa-Wa attitude saps the life of any community. * Deeds of Camden soldiers, statesmen and civic leaders of the past, constitute a heritage that is rich in achievement and honor, but the Camden of today must not be content in living in that past. Those deeds should be shining examples to follow in the future. The foresight and courage of the founders during the earJy and formative years should be reflected in the oppor tunities that now lie ahead. Transportation in the air is only beginning! The production of cattle and agricultural prod ucts in this state is increasing daily. We have learned some thing of the value of trees and—this is* an industry that is in its infancy. We must keep a sharp lookout. 'We must not be, left behind. We must see to it that those who follow us can look back upon us and our achievements with the same pride which we today salute the achievements of those who have gone before us.

Blf. GOLDEN TEXT—Oh that man would pralae tha Lord ter hlB foodaaaa, and foi hla wondarful woria to tha ehUdran "Ol maot—Paalm 107:9. God rulea. the universe. He haa Hia plan which will be carried out, yea, even in spite of man if need be. “He can overrule the acts even of wicked men and make them links in a chain of providence bj which Hie purposee are carried out.”,. Forfiveneae, opening the way for the reatoration of fellowship and tha showing of kindness, brou^t tha sto ry of Joseph and hla brethren to a happy ending. Under the good hand of God, the story which began with tragedy la brought to a ConclusioD d! blessing. I. Love, Overcomes Fear (w. 1-4). Following the earnest plea of Ju dah, the heart of Joseph could no longer withhold itself from tha full expression of affection and devotkm to his family. Joseph tenderly shielded the f^- Uy troubles from the eyes jnd ears of strangers by sending out the Egyptians. It was the first step of consideration vdiich paved the aray for reconciliation. How often just the opposite is done—airing family affalrt befora the world, and humJKl' ating those who may be in the wrong, thus making it difficult for them to admit their guilt. Then, too, this was a moment too tender and delicate to be seen by outsiders. The tears of a strong man like Joseph' mean a' deep move ment of spirit—a solemn and often a sacred moment. It should also be noted that the brothers were afraid, and well they might be. because of their- tin against Joseph. After many years these astonished men found them selves face to face with the one whom they thought they had dis posed of and they knew their sin had found them out. It always does, sooner or later, but inevitably. , n. Grace Overrules Sin (v. 5). The guilt of these men was none theless real and Joseph could not remove'it, but he encouraged them by showing how God had used their evil devices to work out His own good pleasure. He can make the wrath of man to praise Him (Pb. 76:10). It is worth stressing again that in the very hour when the prospects for Jepeph’s future usefulness seemed ruined, a«d was opening the door to ttiB greatest erqieriences of his life BBd was preparing him to serve tlie thousands vrhose lives were saved by his wisdom and ability in the years of famine. Nothing is more important in the life of e child of God than to be srlelded to His will, unmoved by cir cumstances, abiding His time, re spending to His guidance whether it be by the opening or closing of doors, prosperity or adversity. And herein is the marvel of it all—even sin may be overruled by God’s grace for His own glorv. ik Bethnne News Notes (Receivtd Too Late For Last Woek) Pfc. Bill Kin* o< Fort Sill.

Our lesson also sets us an exam- ifie of how true forgiveness acts. So often when forgiveness is asked or granted, there is an “I can fdrgive but I can’t forget’’ attitude, which meant that while hostilities have ceased at least temporarily, there is no real friendship or the dispoeition to show kindness. Is there aay real forgiveness at all in such aa aittl- tude of heart and mind? We foar not. m. Kindness Provides tiie Best (w. 9-15). It might have been enough to send food and a kind greeting with the brothers to their own land, but love does not seek the minimum expres sion of its feeling. It asks not how little, but how much can I give or do. Note the tender touch in verse 15, “he kissed all his brethren.’’ Here was no general forgiveness, but a personal renewal of long-lost fel lowship. Bringing his aged father and brothers into the land of plenty was not enough, Joseph also gave to them the “l^st of the land’’ (47: 11). His thoughtful consideration in sending for his father (Gen. 46:5-7) was part of the same piece of kind ness. Joseph puts to shame the modem “hard-boiled" attitude toward nee^ and aged members <rf the family. In their eager and relentless Jmrsult of fame or riches, many ignore or trample upon the members of their own families. Oftam they are ashamed of the broken bodies, the humble apparel, the broken or un educated speech of their parents. They fear lest their new-found friends in some circle of wealth and supposed “position" will think them strange or ridiculous. God pity the man or woman who is asham^ of a humble or aged father ssd mother* WHEN THE BOYS COME They'll wont telephone service, • together with other modern- conveniences.
