(Continued from Page 1) get by, and others to achieve. It is the nature of the intellec tuals who receive their salaries from taxes or from the gifts of the successful to advocate a change of system in order to get one wherein the intellectuals hope to be as generously rewarded as the business executive. Democracy as we have tried to shape it in America has been heavily impregnated with the Ten Commandments and the Spirit of Jesus . . . Democracy condemns without reservation the confisca tion of private property and cap ital by the government and the regimenting of human beings. Our democracy is not perfect. Inper fection exist, but its virtues ex ceed those of any other system mankind has tried. Democracy was never created to be a leveler of men. It was created to be a lifter, a developer of men. Democracy was created to let the gifted, the energetic, and the | creative rise to high heights of achievements, and to let each man find his own level on the stairway of existence. Democracy was created to help men meet responsibilities and Shirk no duties. Democracy demands that the na tion be governed by the capable, the honorable, the far seeing, the clear seeing, and not by the medi ocre men. May it be so again. Democracy demands more from men than any other system in the realm of self-discipline, dependa bility, cooperativeness, industry, thrift and honor. Democracy will not work when party politics are not guided by ethical principles. Governments of themselves can not make men equal, or remake men into the beings they ought to be. A change from democracy to either socialism or communism, or a change from private capitalism to state capitalism, will not solve the basic problems of mankind; it merely shifts the areas of power. I am disturbed, therefore, when church leaders and church groups seem to advocate socialistic means and objectives as the answer to the problems of democracy, and especially the problems of equal ity. This is especially true when certain leaders voice slogans that appear logical and Christian but are not. Let me name four: 1. “The world owes every man a living.” No it doesn’t! Christian ethics have never said so, and I have never known any man worth his salt who claimed special rights under such a slogan. It is the cry of the lazy, the inept, and the failures. 2. “Production for use, not profit.” That sounds good, but it is as phony as a Rusian promise. It is profits that have produced the blessings of our nation and en- ablea her to be a blessing to the nations of the world . i . When the government takes over under the slogan of “use, not profits,” men lose their liberties and their standards of living. 3. ‘“Human rights are more important than property rights.” As I look out over the world, one thing is clear: where there is no property rights, there are no hu- PATIENTS IN THE HOSPITAL James D.

BY EARL WILSON “Lord, I believe; help Thou mine unbelief.” Mark 9:24. Jesus had been speaking to a man that was accustomed to see ing his son suffer. The man was broken-hearted at the prospect that his son would have to go through life in such pain and ag ony, and so he brought the boy to Jesus asking that he would heal him. This man had a need and he knew what it was. It would be most helpful today if our world could recognize its need for Je sus, and then go to him for the comfort that only he can give. Too often today we are so busy trying to solve our own problems, and meet our own needs, that w'e fail to see that if we had faith in him, we would have less suffer ing and more joy in life. Once there was a mule standing between two identical haystacks, and as the saying goes, “He was as hungry as a mule.” Standing between these two haystacks he was faced with a great dilemma. Which haystack would he eat from? He wanted to go to the one on the left but the one on the right looked so inviting. The story goes on to say that the poor an imal stood there and starved to death simply because he could not make up his mind to go to one or the other and eat. No doubt but that this seems like a stupid story, and rightly so, but many today find themselves in the same position as the mule. First they lock at the world and all of its pleasures; then they look at Jesus and the way of life that he wants them to live, and they simply do not know which way to turn. Perhaps today you find yourself in this position. You feel that you should go to Jesus but you are afraid that you do not know enough, or that you are too weak to live up to his stand ards. If this is true you need to slip away to some place where you can be alone, and then speak the words of our text- Take your Bible with you and read the vhole story as it is found in Mane 9: 14-29. You will find that it is like walking down the road at night with a flashlight. You don’t ex pect that flashlight to shine all the way home, but you do expect it to make a light where your next step must go. This is faith. If you are trusting in Jesus he will show you the next step you need to take. Are you listening? Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Riley have moved to 2310 Main street. Mrs. Hendrix Died Wednesday Mrs. Lillian Brown Hendrix, 68, wife of J. Monroe Hendrix, died Wednesday afternoon at the Lake side Rest Home after a lingering illness.

It was just such a statement that produced the crucifixion of Jesus. Churchmen, whether laymen or clerical, who seek to solve the problems of our society through socialistic processes rather than democratic ones within the free en terprise system are heading down a road that leads to darkness. Whenever we as a church, an ed ucational system, or a Supreme Court encourage people to mis represent facts, to use force wrongfully, to flout law and order, and to stimulate bitterness and hatred, we depart from logic, Am ericanism and Christianity. Equality can be had only by a loss of certain liberties. If men want equality above all else, they may best find it in communism. If men want liberty and a fair portion of equality they must turn to democracy. We cannot solve the problem of equality by govern ment. If I must choose between liberty and equality, I must choose liberty and then hope and work for equality, for such seems to me to be the Christian way.
