DID THEY LOOK U?? It
is alarming and almost distressing
to see how the people are moving
from place to place all over this south
-land in search of a livelihood. In
some places in the rural districts, one
^ will travel for miles and see nothing
but empty houses. Ap investigation
will show that the occupants have
gone either north or east' to get some
. themselves and families. Isn't that
awful] They must forsake their relatives
and friends, turn their hacks
on the south land thafe they* love so.
,? well and escape for their lives. .The
Country churches are almost depleted
. of niT-mbor^and thnsc <>!' the southern
- cities?-have-- suffered "a' tremendous,
T loss, The saddest of all is that the
?nd is not yet, 'for scores of ,people]
' *are planning no? to leave the sunny
south fop parts yet to be determined. |
' They say tjxev have looked on all sides
to see as to whether They could better1
their_cvpdjtions and remain here but
thev_sa\y nothing but starvation from
every'MBlgie- at which they looked-.
Now tnyf mistake thf> pPoplp make is,'
after TOofcing all around them for the
?: - betterofthpir conditions ahd see
- nothing,^uo thpy look* up?" There-is
a proverbial story of a rather carrying
his innocent child on a stealing
v ? tour. "Stfter arriving "at the orchard,
the father looked all arout\d and seeding
no one, attempted to pluck the
,,v - fruit when he was accosted by his little
child by saving; Pa! Pa!, did you
look up? Whether the child wits conconscious
of the magnitude of it^ q'ues
" lion1 matters little, btit_the"father was.
- ? for according to t1ie~slory~he returned
home .without the delicious fruit. And
from tliat very night^Jthe father always
looked lip lfiYSt before looking
ryound and itUjSO" dojnghis eyes were
finally fivi-tl upon?tho?hill*?from
whence cometh all of our help.
Hftv.e You Considered God
' - ^ The .above is the true moral of the
little^ jcjkild's question to its father,
.-and-jfe' the best, reply that can be given
to the. faithless and panic stricke'n
pehnle at this restless age of the
. world. The people ih going all over
you that they looked all around for it]
? ~?bgfore leaving- bu?~di<l they look.-u.p-?..
Did they consider firul2--Any }>eoj>lehaye
a false conception of God that
believe he exists simply to grant thqm
spiritual blesstngs while they live on
earth and assign thenr to the saipts
rest when they come\to die. They for
-\F that the earth is the Lord's and
the fullness thereof. After all, the
highest task of fording mid' clothing'
humanity is God's, llis part of it is
thP only mystery. A child or an insane
person can drop a seed in the
eround, but if tnkqs the wisdom of a

V and spring up.- Ijothing mysterious
about a man walking the furrows of
his corn in an effort to labor but to
see the ear putting out upon that
sfalk in obedience to the command of
God is a wonder. Hate you corisitjer..ed
God? No man .is justified in
teaching conclusions -without consulering
God. The wisdgm of fhis world
is his. The wealth of this -world is
his. Even our time is in his hand, It
* is said of Columbus that h0' consulted
(Jod before he undertook his dangerous.
voyage, and when he -reached this
pew found land he knelt 'upon it and
gave thanks, to God. George' Washington
Carver, the great scientist,"
who. has shown on<5" hundred and one
ways of using the peanut and sweet
potato, says he never goes to his laboratory
without consulting God. In
other word's, he looks up. ..In these
times fhat ar.-> trying the Very sOul
of men the people should look up and
^ secure divine aid. and assistance.
Many failing to do_ihis before leaving,

' Act,After Consulting Him j
The farmer should ask God to help
him to have'Success on his farm each
year, for ho is king of the farms. The
physician should ask for his association

teacher's work would, be more efToc?-tive
irv ther class rooms if they "would
co there after communicating -with'
God, for Ho is the world's greatest
teacher. 8he God that fed and watered
his people in - the wilderness for
fort" years, without a-babbling spring
or th0 growing of a single grain surely
does not have to transport- them I
? ?U-over the world to-grver-ffl?*nr
bread to eat or clothes' to wear. The,
people need to get down on their
...knees in deep-meditation to God about
the conditions that are confronting
the country today. Tftt'y must realize
that their "help .cometh from Jthe
Lord who mad0 heaven and earth."
Christ in Hi's great sermon exhorted
believers to put their trust in God.
. Listen?"Behold the fowls of the air;
for thev sow not, neither do they rasp,,
nor gather into barns; yet your heav
enly father feedeth them. Arn ye notj
