By EARL WILSON
The Bible is a great and mysterious book. It is great in
that it is the word of God for his people. It is mysterious in
that it was written so long ago but pertains to the problems
of today in such a marvelous way. The Bible teaches that
all who have experienced salvation through faith in Jesus
' Christ, and who have continued to live according to his pur
pose for their life, will finally attain to everlasting life. It
is an act of salvation for the future and is often discussed
as the doctrine of perseverance. This is an act of God and
does not take place automatically. It is not a mere conse
quence of the salvation experience, but is a result of the
constant Christian activity of the will of man from the
moment of conversion until the end of life.
This doctrine of perseverance is one that has been gravely
misunderstood. Many have taken it to mean that a person
is saved regardless of the type of life he lives. This is aa false
interpretation. The truth of this doctrine is simply that a
genuinely saved person will continue living in the faith that
saved him.
A slow deliberate reading of 1 Peter 1:4-5 reveals that
we are being kept for a salvation experience that is still to
come. The author goes on to show, however, that this keep
ing is totally dependent upon our faith. Let us learn the les
son that salvation begins, continues, and is eventually
brought to everlasting life because of one’s faith in Jesus
Christ as the only begotten son of God; born of a virgin;
lived a sinless life among men; was crucified on a cross for
the sins of all men; was buried for three days but now sits
at the right hand of God not to judge the sinner but to re
deem the faithful.

Your Vision
Follow These 9 Rules
| To Keep Vision At Par
B? DR. JAMES S. BAILEY
Consulting Optometrist
The other day a patient asked if
there are any basic rules which
should be followed to keep eyes
healthy and normal and vision at
the best level of efficiency. The
question prompted this list of nine
rules.
Since every rule applies to the
entire family, it would be wise to
cut them out of this newspaper
and keep them as a constant re
minder that your visual needs
should never be neglected.
1. Get the proper amount of
rest and sleep. This helps build
the eyes’ resistance to irritation
and fatigue. Sleep also improves
the level of efficiency and pro
motes general good health.
2. Proper nutrition is essen
tial. A well-balanced diet pro
motes good physical health. And
it is upon good physical health
that we depend for the well-being
of the eyes.
3. Avoid improper lighting
while you are working or reading.
Be sure the light is comfortable
and is not directed into your eyes.
Indirect lighting helps prevent
glare and reduces eye-strain.
4. Follow the advice of your
optometrist, and never go without
glasses whenever you should wear
them. They will spare your eyes
needless strain and abuse. Have
your prescription checked often to
determine if it should be changed.
5. Protect your eyes from
harmful infrared and ultraviolet
radiation in direct sunlight. Wear
sunglasses, but make sure they
are of excellent quality.
6. If a foreign object gets into
your eye and you cannot remove
it r ’ ordinary means, consult a
doctor at once. Caustic chemicals,
glass or particles of metal can
cause permanent damage if not
treated immediately. Never rub
the eye; it could cause more seri
ous damage.
7. Never rely upon nature’s
own protection of your eyes. Use
eye protection, such as safety
glasses, when engaged in work or
play which might involve danger.
8. Do not overtax the eyes.
Don’t watch television in a dark
room. Remove objects which
cause bright reflections on the TV
screen.
9. Consult your optometrist at
least once a year for a complete
vision examination. Even if you
wear glasses, make sure they are
adequate. Your vision changes of
ten, and lenses must be changed
also to provide clear and comfort
able seeing.
If you follow these rules, your
vision can be kept efficient and
near normal throughout life.
Looking A bead

EDUCATION PROGRAM

Initiative, Private Brand
Too few of our citizens are
devoted to the idea of per
forming public service, in a
non-government way, so as to
help others. Too many of us
are attached to the notion that whatever is wrong with the
country can be put in a high state of perfection only if we
pass some bill through Congress. The current push behind
the Anti-Poverty legislation suggests that many of our lead
ers, undoubtedly motivated by high and sincere purpose,
would have the government do certain things that we as in
dividuals ought to be doing. Are we going to become, year
by year, the planned, secure, but mediocre society that is
coddled from cradle to grave?
There have been, and are today, politicians among our
leaders who see Utopia if only Congress will provide the
authority to remedy, adjust, administer, plan, or hand out
c a o n f i / ^ Y c.
A Refreshing Example
It is as if the nation knew nothing about anything ever
having been done, through individual or private means, for
anyone. It is as if nothing is being done to overcome poverty,
jy people improving their skills and marketing the same.
All the educational programs for young and old, accomplish
ing nothing. No young man ever advancing himself by his
own effort and perseverance. Nobody caring about anybody
else, except the government. Worst of all, comes the wide
spread idea that only the federal government cares about
rewarding the distressed and dependent.
That is why it is so refreshing to hear of occasional ex
amples of local action that are initiated without benefit of
the U. S. Congress, the White House, or any Washington bu
reau. Youth unemployment, one of the aggravating factors
in today’s economic picture, is a problem in Milwaukee as it
is in other communities. Some 14,000 young people between
the ages of 16 and 21 were needing jobs this summer. With
the federal government wanting to spend $38 million to find
or make jobs for the nation’s youth, should Milwaukee turn
the task over to Washington?
Power of An Idea
Not at all. Someone had an idea, and as the result the
young people of the city are finding work for themselves
through a private, non-profit clearing house called Youth-
power, Inc. In its first six weeks of operation about 750
young persons from 16 to 21 years of age were placed in jobs.
Most were placed in temporary jobs, except about 40 in per
manent jobs. The organization believes it can concentrate
this fall on finding permanent employment. It has had wide
experience this summer interviewing and job scouting and
coaching its clients. -
1 outhpower itself is staffed by 20 young volunteers who
interview the young applicants and take calls from business
men and householders wanting he^p. Also, the staff con
ducts surveys by phone and advertising by mail to determine
whether work is available. Its emphasis is not on taking jobs
from others but on creating new ones. Many calls, of cour&,
are for lower paying jobs such as yard work and household
help. But a number of youths were placed quickly as g£s
station attendants, truck drivers, shipping clerks, etc. Some
school dropouts were found jobs.
Individual Action
The idea for Youthpower came from Elmer L. Winter, ac
cording to an article in the Wall Street Journal which tells
the whole story. Mr. Winter is a professional employment
consultant and specialist who heads Manpower, Inc., a com
pany supplying temporary business and industrial help. Mr.
Winter’s firm gave office space in an adjoining building and
donated desks and office supplies as well as advice and coun
sel on procedures. “I decided it shouldn’t be left completely
up to the government to solv the problem,” Mr. Winter is
quoted as saying.
This is a commendable public service: an awareness of need
and a determination to help people by doing something a-
bout it. Actually, these experiences are repeated over and
over throughout the land. There are never too many public
heroes, of course, but their names are legion. The point is
that when private action is not pre-empted by government,
the way is often found. When government takes over, where
is the initiative and who is the hero? In the area of youtli
employment, in which local interests can act and state agen
cies have already tackled the problem, the federal govern
ment nevertheless has announced that it plans centers in
105 cities to help youths find jobs.

Rev. ROBERT H. HARPER
EASTER
O ne of the pictures that I re
member from childhood is
:he artist’s conception of the last
lours of Socrates. Condemned to
irink the fatal hemlock, he is
:he calmest one in his cell as
lie sentence is carried out. On
iiis “magnificent ugly face” as
me has described it, there is
aot the trace of fear, as he takes
the proferred hemlock, and lifts
the other hand in gesture grave
is he discourses to his friends
upon the immortality of the soul.
But Socrates and the many
others who have had intimations
of eternal life could not be sure
if Jesus had not risen from the
dead. But the tomb of man’s lost
hope has become the birthplace
of his immortality. I can only
leave in his misery the man who
denies this.
Notwithstanding the wonder of
the assurance that we shall never,
never die, the promise of mere
never-ending existence and noth
ing we can realize that without
redemption from sin eternal life
would be a greater tragedy than
eternal death. For what would
the resurrection be worth if a
man should be left to depart from
God ever more and to he a sin
ner through eternity.
So thanks be to the Father
in heaven that as Christ has risen
from the dead and that we
may stand with him one day
amid the glories of ten thousand
worlds.
