Flowers and Gifts for All Occasions CARTER’S Day Phone 719 — Night 6212 /~\NLY a few days ago, I found myself smote directly between the eyes by a heavy wfapon often referred to as “The Awful Truth.” It dawned upon me, suddenly and unequivocally; springs and sum mers are slipping by .and I, tho far from the age of withering on the vine, begin to feel the mellowness that each new ray of morning sun shine can but meliorate the more. I guess that I crossed over the hill Without bothering to watch the scenery, because the destination was reached effortlessly, without any serious struggles on my part. Of course, it had to come day, as I always knew it would. But I had expected it to be a slow proc ess, “gradual Stages, like climb ing a tall ladder where each rung is an individual challenge. One must conquer each step. That’s the way I expected it to be. But it wasn’t that way at all. It was sudden, with such dynamic force that I knew instantly I had either “crossed over the bridge” or ven tured out so far that to attempt to return would be sheer folly. It was just an across-the cof fee-cup discussion. One of those present, an elder noted fbr strong opinions, said with an adamant air: “The younger generation is totally incapable of shouldering their share of the world’s respon sibilities.” . Indignation welled within me. I poised the words I had wielded in numerous battles of the pest. “Indeed we are,” echoed the words' w'ithin me. But, from without, I said with $he same adamant air, “You are right. They are not.” There can be no doubt. I am growing old (er). Time out for fun! ■v ^ M' ■ m THE NEWBERRY SUN THURSDAY, MAY 20. 1954 EEVE I REMEMBER BY THE OLD TIMERS From M. D. Merry. Hudson, Wis consin: Red McDonald, a pioneer cowboy, who came to Montana in the early eighties told of one day in late October, while riding along the ridges thajt bordered the Yel lowstone. He heard an unfamiliar sound and saw a large, black cloud of dust north of the river. He rode to the highest pinnacle and soon an angry, bellowing -buf falo herd appeared out of the bad lands, jumped into the river and started across. He watched the migration for several hours. Often one would fall but the herd tram pled him to death without paying any attention. Some would wander away from the herd and stay be hind. These the cowboys killed for their winter meat. The herd was enroute to Indian Territory and Texas, where they would^ feed during the winter months and rear their young. Whea spring opened they vubuld again head north until they reached Sas katchewan to feed during the sum mer. • • • From Edna P. Mecum, Portland, Oregon: I remember 77 years ago in Indiana when I, after being the “baby” of the family for six years, had to give up my favored spot by mother for a new sister. And, then, later on she had to do the same for another newcomer. I’d like to cross those miles again and see both their faces, as they were then, or as I last saw them in 1912 and 1927 respectively. I could again be a happy little girl. HITS FIFTH COLUMN . . . Pennsylvania supreme court Judge Michael A. Musmanno endorsed House bill outlawing Communist party in U.

Try to Meet God's Standard Of Honesty \Y/HAT does it mean to be hon- ^ est? . The question and the answer are not just as simple as one< might suppose. When one gets out into life, and begins to observe society, one quickly finds that there are varying standards of. honesty. There is, for instance, that old, and very true, observation that “honesty is the best policy.?’ Many men have been known to be honest when it cost them a lot to stand by their idea of what was right and just. And there are some men whose idea of honesty is hound up with ideas of law and legality. They maintain: “as long as the law allows it, why shouldn’t we db it?” There is a great amount of that sort of legalized honesty prevalent in the world today, and < much of it in very respectable quarters r but^ what does God . think of it? There are grades, and varieties, and standards of hon esty, and so there is a point in asking, “What is God’s stand ard?” 1 God’s standard of honesty is related to truth and inherent right. Man may make his co4es and creeds, and seek to give them divine authority, but that doesn’t make them either true or right. In the world of science men have theories concerning facts and phenomena, but they have to abandon such theories when fur ther and conflicting light and evidence appear. Though we may not always realize it, the same thing is true in religious experience. Honesty, according to * God’s standard, is to bring one’s life and action into harmony with the truth as one sees it. That is true honesty, and nothing less is true honesty.
