Bible Comment:
Today's Problems
Exemplified Clearly
In Biblical Stories
rpHE Bible is a profound and
inexhaustible textbook of so
ciology.
There is no problem in society
today, or in the life of a modern
nation, that is not exemplified
with some very clear teaching, if
men would seek it, in the con
centrated history of the Jewish
people as set forth in the Old
Testament histories and proph
ecies. ,
The causes of social disintegra
tion, of natural disruption, decay
and disaster, are there set forth
as plain as day, and there is no
reason whatever to assume that
those cause? do not operate as
tragically for modern peoples as
they did then. ,
And Christ’s gospel for society
took into it all the wholesome
teaching and experience that had
gone before.
With even greater sternness
than those before Him, He de
nounced the continuing sins and
social evils of His day. If one
doubts it, or minimizes the so
cial impact of the teaching of
Christ, let him turn to that cata
logue of “Woes” in Matthew 23.
But Christ had no gospel for
society that did not have its rise
and place in the individual
hearts and lives.
If there was one thing upon
which Jesus insisted it was the
value and worth of the individ
ual life. That was the outstand
ing message of the parable of the
Ninety-and-Nine, or of the Lost
Sheep.
In a democracy, particularly,
that insistence upon the value of
the individual, and upon his re
sponsibility, should never be
weakened.
We are wont to define democ
racy in terms of the rule of the
majority, but majority decisions
do not by themselves make any
thing wise or right.
The true basis of democracy is
self-rule, which means that
every man is his own king. God
help society when the king abdi
cates!

I REMEMBER.
8Y THE OLD TIMERS
From Mrs. Walter Olson, Forest
Grove, Oregon: I remember as a
child my folks immigrated into
the southern prairies of Saskatche
wan. Canada.
We children would go after the
cows in the evening. Because there
were no fences and an open herd
law, the cows went in any direction
they wished to graze. We often
walked into buffalo (bison) trails
and were ever alert for buffalo
horns. Most of the time we were
rewarded. We had any number of
them, and in pairs.
My dad polished some of them
for ornaments and. to my knowl
edge. none were saved as they
were too common-place. What
would I give for that sack of buffalo
horns today!
• • •
From C. E. Jett, Marietta,
Georgia: I remember when I was
a small boy—we ate corn bread
for breakfast six days a week and
biscuits for breakfast on Sunday
morning.
In the winter, six of us kids
went nearly two miles to school.
The ground was frozen and I had
no shoes. I waited until the other
kids who had shoes to wear were
way ahead, then I would start to
run and run all the way to keep
my feet warm. This was In Osage
county, Missouri, at the Phelps
school house.

POTENT TV ANTENNA
GREENVILLE, Jan. 2 — Alan
Fletcher of 12 Wilshire Dr. has
made a successful TV antenna out
of two clothes hangers and some
scrap wire.
The R. B. Fletchers on the ad
vice of the salesman selling them
the set didn’t buy an antenna
that would pick up the Charlotte
VHF station, because the new
VHF Greenville station blocks out
that channel.
At first the family was con

the rest of the family wanted to
New Paint Remover Simplifies Refinishing
f—
BY EDNA BOLES
r pHIS is a do-it-yourself era.
-*• Mother, father and children
retire to workshops and sewing
comers evenings and weekends,
engaged in making or refinishing
furniture, drapes and slipcovers,
clothes and accessories.
No matter how complicated the
project, there’s someone in the
family willing to tackle it. Re
finishing old furniture bought,
presumably, for a song is ond
favorite way of spending an eve
ning.
But since any well-done refln-
ishing job is largely dependent
on removing old paint and get
ting down to the grain of the
wood, a good paint remover is
important.
There are many good paint re
movers on the market. But most
of them require much muscle
and effort from the man, woman
or child engaged .in the paint
removing.
So one paint remover just re
cently packaged for home use is
a welcome addition to the shelf.
This new remover can be used
without a scraper. One applica
tion will, the makers claim, re
move any number of layers of
paint, varnish, lacquer or shel
lac.
And, since the makers say that
it will not affect the ply nor
warp the veneer, no sanding is
necessary*
This 1 remover remains liquid
when it is applied, so itjs simple
to use on scrolled furniture or
old paint

picture fVames. Except in the
most difficult cases, a doth is
right for rubbing off old paint
and veneer with .this remover.
On stubborn pieces, use steel
wool. Then go once over lightly
with turpentine and the new
finish can be applied. No drying
time is needed. ~
A word of caution: It will take
off fingernail polish just as easily
as it removes old paint. So don’t
decide to use it the day after a
fresh manicure.
watch the VHF channels also.
Thirteen-year-old Alan took sev
eral clothes hangers and made a
simple pair of “rabbit ears” which
he sat on the top of the set.
With these he was able to pick up
the Charlotte station.
Wanting to improve the recep
tion still further Alan took some
wire and fastened a piece of wire
to each of the two . antenna leads.
He then ran these around the
room and out the window. One
wire he has pointing in the di
rection of the Charlotte station
and the other is south of it at
about a thirty-degree angle.
Using two clothes hangers he
fastened his wires into two trees
outside the window. Each of the
two - wires is about fifty feet long
counting the wire from the set to
the trees.
After fastening these wires to
the trees the reception on the set
was very good. Alan has been able
mot only to get Charlotte, but he
has been successful in contacting
VHF stations in Atlanta, Augusta,
Charleston and Columbia.
Now Alan is being asked by
some of his neighbors if he could
help clear up reception on their
sets with their standard antennas?
