V. in mere huts or cabins, along with automobiles in the yards. The peace that should reign in every heart is not wholly determined by bread and meat. Most millionaires are beset by worry all the time, hereas many people of very humble condition are relatively happy and healthy, eat well and sleep well. We sent Vice president Nixon to South America on a pood will tour and so unhappy was the good will that it ended by send ing warships, airplanes and Mar ines to convenient places!! At the first sympton, why was not Mr. Nixon brought home? If you call on your neighbor and he spits on you and throws rocks do you persist in the visit? Cer tainly not. The governments of the South American Nations may disavow the rowdyism and even apolo gize, but it is not unlikely that the bad feeling shown by the students and the rabble really expresses the attitude of the populace more accurately than all the diplomatic persiflage of polite authorities. South America’s University students have not the discipli nary restraints somewhat more common to us; theirs is an in dividualism that breaks out into violence very quickly, but it re flects the common thought just the same. The grand old book, The Bible is full of inspiration not only by words but by deeds. The Old Testament tells of heroic men; recently we have studied Moses and Joshua and Caleb. The Old Testament says very little of immortality; a distin guished scholar once remarked that “the comparative silence of the Old Testament concerning immortality is one of its most impressive mysteries. However dimly shadowed by Job and Da vid and Isaiah, it seems to have been brought to light only by the gospel; but how richly, fully, impressively and indisputably by the “Lord and Giver of Life.” I have always admired Caleb; do you recall him? When Moses, by Divine Command sent men to explore the land of Canaan and to report on it, they made a journey of inspection and they brought back fruits, declaring that the land was “a land of milk and honey,” but that the people of Canaan were strong and the cities walled. Caleb said “Let us go up at once and possess it, for we are well able to overcome it.” The other men of the scouting trip however, were afraid, saying “We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we. The land is a land which eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people we saw in it are men of great sta ture; and there we saw giants; and we were in our own sight DEED TRANSFERS Newberry No. 1 Jesse L‘ Dickert to Leila Nor ris, 1527 Boundary St., one lot and one building on Amelia St., $10.00 and other valuable consid erations.

Josh ua and Caleb were men of cour age, a courage of faith. They spoke with assurance, in spite of the tumult, “If the Lord de light in us, then he will bring us into this land and give it to us; a land which floweth with milk and honey.” Later the Israelites took pos session and Caleb chose the rocky, unattractive area as his portion, declaring that “I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now so give me this mountain, the area of giants, you remember. Caleb saw the walled cities and the giants and the fierce warlike aspect of the opposition, but Ca leb believed in the promise of Je hovah and went forward. To me he is inspiring, the indomitable Spirit of a man of faith. We need them still. Caleb could have said the words of Balaam to Balek “God is not a man, that he should lie, neither the Son of man that he should repent; hath he said and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken and shall he not make it good?” We have so little faith, but the old Book tells us so clearly and persuasively that if we had faith as a grain of mustard seed we could remove mountains. How refreshing an intrepid spirit, overlooking the foibles and failures of the moment, the strength of strong opposition and all else save the overshadowing spirit of Eternal Might.
