■ * 5 A Building A Peaceful World By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt (WNU Feature—Through special arrangement with Collier’s Weekly) One of the great lessons we Amer icans will have to learn if we ever hope to build a better foundation for peace is that human beings the world over have to be approached as human beings a.'d not as mem bers of a race or a* adherents of a certain religion—but just as people whom you may like or dislike ac cording to their individual charac teristics. I may be a Chinese, an Arab, a Jew, an Indian, a Negro, a German, a Frenchman, or a Britisher—still I must be evaluated, if I am to be fairly judged, on the basis of being just a human being. We have never done this in the world before—and we have never had peace in the world thus far. Freedom From Fear. One of our four freedoms states that we shall have “freedom from fear.” Freedom from fear, of course, means that the world over, people will be protected from ag gression, people will be protected from persecution because of their race or their religion. People will be safeguarded from hunger and want, too, by an econ omy which takes into consideration the basic needs of all the people, the world over. If that is going to become a reali ty, then the first thing we have to do is to learn to meet our fellow human beings, recognizing the fact that we will not love all of them, but we will love some, and we must get on with all, regardless of dif ference of race or creed. Those who are evil will have to be restrained. We do that in our own countries everywhere. The Chinese philosopher, Lin Yu- tang, says in substance, in a recent article, that our moral attitudes the world over are the important fac tors, not what we know or what we have, but our ability to choose be tween right and wrong. This may be the basis on which we shall have to develop some of our future co operation. Our boys in Africa and in the Solo mon Islands deal with natives who haven’t yet had a chance to develop a very high type of civilization. These boys are going a step beyond their first contacts in Great Britain and Australia, and wide differences will develop, but the beginning of the development is in Great Britain. If we can build on the good will which Great Britain has toward us at the moment (largely brought about because, in the trials through which the British have gone, the generosity of the American people has made them grateful) we will be beginning a new era in the world. Generous, Not Sacrificial. Over here, it is hard to under stand just what certain things have meant to Great Britain, because while we have given money which has sent mobile canteens, ambu lances, medical supplies, clothing, food, etc., in great quantities to Great Britain, we were only being generous, not sacrificial. We have sent old clothes, but they were things we could do without. However, the people who received them over there could not do with out them. A woman in a London crowd, for instance, one day plucked at my sleeve and said, “My little girl would have been cold if it had not been for the warm clothes the children of America sent us.” The British people show their gratitude by wanting to do things for our American soldiers. They realize that our coming into the war is a great help to their own boys who have fought in all parts of the world for the past three years. But their gratitude goes deeper than that: it touches the lives of everyone in that group of islands. It calls out a traditional feeling which I think is ingrained in the people of the United States and in the people of Great Britain—if we have received something, we want to make a return, at least in good will. This is a basis on which I believe we can readily and permanently build. Well, to be really effective, the United Nations will have to build among the people of all the nations an understanding such as is now growing between the people of Great Britain and the people of the United States. It will be slow, but the build ing of a peaceful world is not something to be accomplished by the writing of a treaty. It takes time to work out the rela tionships of men and women, but if we hope for peace, it must be done. And I think a good beginning has been made. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY I chool Lesson BY HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D. Of The Moody Bible InsUtute of Chicago. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.1 Lesson for March 14 Lesson subjects snd Scripture texts se lected end copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. IN THE UPPER ROOM LESSON TEXT—John 13:12 20; GOLDEN TEXT—Jesus saith unto him. I am the way. and the truth, and the life: no cne cometh unto the Father, but by me.— John U:S. Calvary and crucifixion were just ahead. Jesus gathered His disciples for a time of communion and in struction as they spent their last evening together. On the morrow would come betrayal, but now they and their Lord were together in the upper room. But even here strife and dissen sion had apparently come in. There was probably some difference of opinion as to who should have the place of honor. To teach them the virtue of humility Jesus gave them an example, after which He contin ued with the precious counsel and prayer which are found in John 14 to 17. Our lesson presents three things which our Lord gave to His disciples and to us (see John 17:20). I. His Example—“Do as I Have Done” (13:12-20). The act of Jesus in washing the disciples’ feet placed Him, their Lord and Teacher, on the level of the most menial servant. It was an as tonishing thing that He did, lower ing Himself below their level to serve them. His application of the object les son was equally startling. “Ye call me Teacher and Lord, and ye say well,” said He. Then as learners and servants He required of them the humility which would make them eager to do lowly service in His name. There are more than enough folk who are willing to do the nice, pleas ant things in the church, where they will be given recognition and praise. All too scarce are those Christlike folk who will serve in the hidden places where darkness, suffering, disease and sin make the natural man recoil in distress or fear. II. His Assurance—“If I Go I Will Come Again” (14:1-3). Following His resurrection Jesus was to go to the Father. He wanted them to be prepared for that time by making known to them the fact of His coming again. In that day His own shall be received unto Him self to abide with Him forever. The second coming of Christ is not a strange doctrine held by little groups of people who are rid ing a theological hobby. It is one of the most blessed truths of Scrip ture. The hope of the Christian— yes, the only real hope of this dis ordered world—is the coming of Christ to reign. The New Testa ment is full of plain and helpful teaching on this subject. While we await His coming, then, is there any encouragment for us as the burdens bear down and the way seems long? Yes, He says: “Let not your heart be troubled” (v. 1). There is little question that this passage has comforted more people than any other word in Scrip ture. Countless bewildered and broken souls in all lands and times have here found the steadying assurance of the one who has the power to give them rest and comfort. There is good foundation for their composure of heart in a troubled world. They believe in God, and in Christ, who is one with the Father. Here is real security—infinitely su perior to aught the world can give. Then at the end of the road are the eternal dwelling places. What they are like is sufficiently revealed in the fact that they are in the Fa ther’s house. How shall we reach them? That is our last point. We have III. His Guidance—“I Am the Way” (w. 4-6). To Christ’s declaration that they knew the way, Thomas responded with a request for a definite state ment. He wanted to be sure, and Christ responded by reminding him that He, their Lord, is the “way, the truth, and the life.” Surely there could be no more complete provi sion for the guidance of the heavenly pilgrim. Christ is “the way.” If one takes the right road he will reach the right destination though he “cannot at first see it clearly. Perhaps this is the commonest mistake of the Christian. He frets too much about what lies ahead . . and not enough about taking the*right road” (LeSson Commentary). He is “the truth.” He is the final and complete revelation of God, and is therefore the One who will lead all those who walk the way by faith into the fullness of the truth. To know Christ is to know God. He is “the life.” He is life, and He alone can give eternal life to man. There is none other to whom man may turn for life, but in Christ it is found, and from Him it may be received by faith. We have only touched the briefest beg-nning of what took place on that remarkable evening in the upper room. It was a time of richest spir itual significance, of dark betrayal, but also of closest communion. We continue next Sunday. THE SUN, NEWBERRY, S.

Help your Grocer Let’s Get Behind Him and Make Rationing a Success-Start Now to use more of the plentiful NON-RATIONED FOODS T HE man who runs your grocery store hat hie headaches these days. For months, in the (ace of shortages and lack of experienced help, he’s been trying to carry on... trying to give you the kind of service you’ve always ex pected of him. Now he has a brand new problem—point rationing. He has to collect the stamps from you as well as the cash. It’s a burden for him—sure—and for you. But he knows and you know that it’s got to be done. It’s the only fair way of making sure that everybody gets a fair share. That’s our way of doing things. So IPs his job—and your job—everybody’s job—to make point rationing work... at smoothly, as efficiently as possible. Traffic jams in food stores aren’t going to help anybody. ☆ ☆ ☆ Now there are a number of ways in which you can give this grocer of yours a real hand ... in a good, neighborly American way. You can shop early in the day, early in the week. You can shop as infrequently as possible—once a week only, if you can manage. You can always make sure to have a shopping list, and to have your “point values” added up before you go to the store. And you can help yourself as well as your grocer by using the plentiful, non. rationed food, as much as you can, instead of the scarce, rationed foods. Foods such as cereals, fresh fruits and vegetables, home- cocked soups, home-canned fruits and vege tables are not rationed and they deserve an important place in your wartime meals. ☆ ☆ ☆ Because cereals are one of these abundant tin. rationed foods, we here at the Kellogg factory in Battle Creek have been doing everything we possibly can to meet the unprecedented de mand for our products. We’re sending millions upon millions of packages of crisp Kellogg Cereals to the boys in our armed forces. We’re packing K-ration for troops in the front line of fighting. Even our machine shop is mak ing gun parts! And we’re short of help, too. There are 423 stars on the big service flag hang ing in the lobby of the Kellogg building.

With milk alone, or with milk and fruit, a bowl of crisp, delicious Kellogg Cereal gives you vitamins, minerals, protein, food-energy in one dish! And remember this about cereals in your daily meals. They're quick and easy to prepare. No cooking, no pans or skillets to clean up. Even the dishes are easier to wash. Cereals save time—work—fuel—other foods. Used in hamburger, meat-loaves, croquettes, etc, they help you stretch your meat... and they make milk go farther, too.
