SPECTATOR We read quite a bit about religious disputes, more pre cisely, perhaps, dissenters who regard the regulars as unin formed or unwilling or unable to see the truth. What is the truth ? Are those who have ac cepted the Bible as the authen tic revelation of Jehovah in error? We think that the Di vine hand in all creation is clearly shown; surely creation of the world was no happen-so; very clearly we see the hand of the Creator. What do the dissenters of fer to us who believe in the King James translation of the sacred Scriptures. What do they offer in rebuttal. As our laweyrs say? I know that there are a few errors of transla tion in The Book, but they do not affect the real truth. I have sometimes asked crit ics to explain the processes of digestion. How does a dish of ham and eggs nourish our bod ies. Does food become blood and does blood keep our hearts busy? Explain that. As you look on a man who has just breathed his last, what is the difference between him and a man moving about in full vig or? Let us consider the man who has just breathed his last, who is dead, as we say. The man who has just passed away may have all his organs, muscles and other parts wholly intact, so far as we can tell. What has happened? His spirit has left his body; the spirit really is the man. We have the version ,of the resurrection of Jesus, how can you challenge it? Do you know what electricity is? You use it in scores of en terprises and in hundreds of ways not called enterprises. Do you know how electricity floats around us waiting for us to util ize it? We use it, dont we? ’We find thousands of uses for that providential source of power which floats all around us just waiting for us to make practi cal application. It that a mere accident; or is it a provision of the Most High? I am not a man of science, though like millions of other ordinary people I use it plen tifully, constantly. Incidentally, I am not a theo logian, discussing the great principles and mysteries of Divine Grace. We ordinary peo ple have a comforting assur- j ance of the Creator and the Saviour; the dissenters offer i words, but the words neither! give solace nor conviction we know that the soul leaves the body and the spirit lives in another world. You recall the woman who had seven husbands, one at a time. The neighbors asked Jesus whose wife would she be in the next life, the new world. That need not be a mystery or a puzzle: Jesus answered clear ly and directly. ”In that new world there is no marrying, so that the woman will not walk down the streets of the New Jerusalem with seven husbands trailing along. If you are not informed you will find an ac count in the Bible. (Read Mat thew 23-30.) Do you understand how a seed becomes a bush full of bolls of cotton ? Life all around us abounds in provisions for our use. Incidentally, although not a j man of science, nor am I a 1 theologian nor anything else of an erudite prestnsion, I have observed the solicitude, of the Great Jehovah for us. Years ago our great-grandfathers found a superabundance of fuel in the forests which abounded on all sides. As the wood or wood-fuel became either scar cer or more expensive our peo ple found coal. We still use millions of tons of coal every year. And then we had oil; and we still explore regions for oil. Then came electricity, some thing from the air. And elec tricity is the great power of the day. Now we find materials for nuclear power; and titan ium is coming to the front. It is my humble and ignorant belief that thousands of square miles of swamp and marsh area will offer a generation fifty years from now new sources of wealth and power. The Great Jehovah did not create any thing that is worthless or in capable of serving mankind. This truly is a great creation. “As thy days may demand shall thy strength even be.” That great old hymn of the church breathes the real spirit of Jehovah’s providing care. I think I have said befpre that Commonsense is not com mon by any means. It is quite rare. I like to quote the Span ish on that “Sentido cornu’ Ee el mas rare de todos sentidos.” Yea, verily: Commonsense. It is the rarest of all the senses. Ithink our sending money abroad shows a lack of com monsense. We are refusing credit, all over this rich coun try our bankers are telling us that money is so tight they have little to lend. But we, the nation, talking tight money and all the other moaning of hard- hit bankers—we still lend bil lions to Asia! I quote from the National Observer: “There are now 300,000 American men station ed in Europe, many of them there with their families. The support of such an establish ment has cost the U. S. dearly through the years, and has been a big factor in this coun try’s gold-outflow difficulties. In addition, as the need for men and supplies for Vietnam grows (there are now mor« than 300,000 U. S. troops in that country) the strain on American military manpower grows more severe. Draft calls continue to rise, and the time grows near when Mr. John son, whether he cares to admit it or not, must prepare to dip into the nation's reserve forces. We are on the verge of spread ing ourselves too thin, econo mically and militarily. And that is risky business. As soon as that electricity is made—it has to get out to the customer who calls for it. And transmission lines are costly too. Right now the South Car olina Electric and Gas. Co. is building five major transmiss ion lines originating from Canadys Station where a new —and third—generating unit is under construction. Just one of these lines will cost a mil lion dollars — and it runs just 41 miles. When you consider costs like this it’s even more service comes to you at such a low price, and it’s gratifying to know that the construction is done without using one cent of your tax dollar. Why? Be cause the South Carolina Elec tric and Gas Co. is an investor owner Company. That makes the big difference. To the scientist, electricity is a stream of electrons. To the layman, electricity is a conven ience. However you look at it, electricity is a miracle of mod ern science—on the job day and night—helping in hundreds of ways. , On the farm electricity is the power behind the water pump and the milking machine—and the way to efficient operation. In the home, electricity is a low cost servant—running the vac uum, the range, the refrigera tor, the air conditioner, and the furnace. Electricity in the of fice means faster, easier typ ing and calculating . . . light ing that end glare—or the force behind the ‘electronic brain’. Daily the number of uses for electricity increases. Approxi mately 142 million, two hundr ed thousand dollars has been budgeted for construction in the year 1966 through 1969. The South Carolina Electric and Gas Co. stays that necessary step ahead.” Lawlessness, rioting, wild disorder, vandalism, ruthless ness—all manner of violence and depredation — all are the common practice of the day. All that calls for firm, vigor ous repression. There are times when 1 the wild impulses of groups must be sternly dealt with. Mobs can’t be restrained by plead ing; they are brutal force and must be met and restrained by force. “Generating stations are costly items that run into the millions of dollars. But plants to make electricity are just part of the equipment required by a company like the South Carolina Electric and Gas Co. College sets arts programs The 1966-67 arts and lecture program at Newberry college will featurt four concerts and two lectures. Events of the season are as follows: Brask-Schieber Duo, a piano- viola team from the Univer sity of of Florida, Oct. 17th; Halina Siedzieniewska, pianist, Nov. 7th; Evelyn McGarrity, soprano of Macon, Ga., Dec. 5; Dr. Richard McKeon, lecturer on philosophy, University of Chicago, Feb. 15; “Die Fleder- maus,” a production of the National Opera Company, Mar. 7; Dr. S. E. Gerald Priestley, lecturer on international rela tions, Oxford University, April 20th. SAC bombers fly missions near here tegic Air Command (SAC) B-52 and B-58 jet bombers began flying missions Oct. 3 against simulated targets near Ridge way. Radar bomb scoring equip ment mounted on an Air Force train parked at Rion, S. C., will use radio and radar signals to measure accuracy of simulated bomb drops. The B-52 Strato Fortress and B-58 Hustler bombers will fly j at subsonic speeds along the centerline of a 10-mile-wide cor ridor at 800 to 1,300 feet above the ground druing the training missions. SAC aircraft do not carry bombs on these flights. Starting in a southerly di rection near Cody, Va., the bombers will turn slightly south-southwest as • Semora, N. C., to a point near Siler City, N. C., and turn southwest ovet Seagrove, N. C. The bombers will continue turning south- southwest again at Pee Dee, N. C., going to near Chesterfield, S. C., where they will head southwest, flying to a termina tion point near Prosperity, S. C. The RBS Express, designa tion for the Air Force trains which carry mobile radar bomb scoring equipment, will remain at Rion, until March 25. Dur ing this 180-day period the cor ridors will be used during week days for training missions. All target and route selec tions have been coordinated in advance with the Federal Av iation Agency. Areas^ of popu lation, poultry farming concen trations and heaviest air traffic are avoided whenever possible. The RBS train is designed to inject realism into SAC’s train ing program by providing crews with a wide range of unfamil iar targets and routes. / The RBS Express is manned by about 65 Air Fo^ce person nel. These are radar and elec tronic technicians plus person nel needed to maintain the train and furnish other support. Supersonic training flights by SAC B-58 Hustler bombers will also occur between Oct. 3 and Dec. 31, 1966, from near Flat Rock, Va., to near Aiken, S. C. Starting in a southwesterly direction from Flat Rock, the bombers will pass northwest of Clarksville, Va., proceeding in a straight line over Roxboro and Ramseur, N. C., and Heath Spring and Ridgeway, S. C., to a termination point near Aiken, S. C. An Air Rorce radar bomb scoring unit will use radio and radar signals to determine ac curacy of simulated bomb drops, since SAC aircraft do not car ry bombs on these training flights. In order to reduce the sonic booms over major cities, target selections are made to bypass or to allow deceleration to sub sonic speeds before reaching^ these cities. The bombers will fly a maxi mum of two runs daily at sup ersonic speeds up to mach 1.65 (1,100 mph). Because of the B-58’s high altitude (above 35,- 000 feet), their sonic booms will be comparatively weak. Although sometimes startling i or distracting in their sudden- i ess, the sonic booms will not in- I jure people or damage a struc turally sound' building. THE GOBLINS r Will BE TRAVELING / DRIVE CAREFULLY Perhaps you remember a Halloween night in the distant past when you scurried across the street burdened by a tremendous bag, a frightful mask and a terrifying costume. Perhaps a motorist slowed down for you. Halloween Is a fun time for everyone and no time for an accident. Please drive carefully.
