Truth ■ Telling Preacher Still Power In Public Life How Propaganda In Old Israel Was Confronted Hy One Prophet Who Would Not Lie— Ear-Tickling And Favor—Currying Religionists.

by WILLIAM T. ELLIS "Yes men" are more of a menace to progress than gunmen. They are the stones of which the citadel of "Things as they are” is built. There is no going ahead for j any business or community where ; these lick-spittle time-servers preI vail. More kings have earned disgrace by being surrounded by "yes men" —fawning, subservient courtiers —than by their own unrighteous conduct. Worst of woes is when preachers become "yes man.” Our Les.son is about four hundred such, over against whom stood one fearless apostle of truth, Mieaiah. When prophets of God become mere pleasers of men, caterers to the current mood, then things are indeed In a bad way. Yet this is the subtlest and most constant temptation of every teacher, preacher and editor. To say the thing that pleases is so easy and satisfactory—it wins the royal favor of King Ahab and of King Demos—that all but the most rugged spirits fall into the habit. Everybody dreads unpopularity; the man who would "rather be right than he president" was a rare patriot, in the Mieaiah class. What About The Preachers? Even in a Lesson about truthtelling we need to be on guard that we speak only the truth. As prophets or preachers, bulk large in the story, the temptation is to declare that something like the ratio of four hundred flatterers to one fearless servant of the truth still prevails today. I do not so believe. While we hear oftenest front the sensational preachers, who ride every popular wave, and are careful to conform always to majority opinion—these are welcome in kings’ palaces and at chamber of commerce banquets—the great majority of the clergy, of all faiths, are faithful in proclaiming what they believe to he the truth of God. They think for themselves, in the light of their own study of the Scriptures, and they fearlessly preach the message that has been given to them. What the State asks of the Sunday School teacher and the minister is that he "declare the whole counsel of God” to his own flock, thus building up their character into righteousness and loyalty to truth. Such a minister may not have as many press notices to hand down to his children; but he will have the "well done” of the Great Judge. Back To The Story This incident from the Book of Kings which is our Lesson is not a familiar 1 story. Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, had visited Ahab, king of Israel. The latter proposed a joint war against Syria, spectifically to recover the border city of Ramoth-Gilead — which mayhave been the present city of Es Salt, built on a mountain side, on the way up front Jericho to Amman; or it may have been farther to the north and east, beyond the Brook Jabbok. Authorities differ. Diplomatically, the visiting king of Judah assented, though seemingly not wholly convinced. Ahab called upon his four hundred court prophets, who were not priests of Baal, nor yet out-and-out Jehovahites, but apparently priests of the high places, half-heathen and half loyal to Jehovah. With one voice, and with impressive symbolism, they promised victory to the kings. Such unanimity was suspicious. So Jehoshaphat asked if there were not some real prophet of Jehovah to be heard from. We can almost see Ahab's face get red, as he sputtered that there was one pestiferous fellow, who never spoke any good of the king. Evidently this lone prophet was one of the Elijah breed, and Ahab had had similar dealings with him. Nevertheless, as his royal guest had requested, he sent for Micaiah. The officer assigned to summon him, gave him politic counsel, to join the popular party, be as one of the four hundred, and please the king. One Against Two Kings Throned in stale, in an open space near the city gate, sat the two kings, with the crowd looking on, and the four hundred “loyal" • ••****** ( *••*•**** * The International Sunday School Lesson for July 29 is—"Mieaiah Speaks The Truth." —I Kings 22. • ••»*•»•*

prophets nearoy. Before them the meanly-clad Prophet Mieaiah was » brought. 'Surely he would he t ! awed into acquiescence to the • | royal will. s | But Misalh, type of all the Polyr! carps, Martin Luthers, John Knoxe es and John Does who have dared ► to stand alon.t for the truth, had . declared, "What Jehovah saith unit to me that will 1 speak." And he did . He prophesied the death of Aliah . In the battle; which so scared the king that he eschewed his royal . robes and went to wear disguised; . but an arrow shot at a ventre , brought him to a bloody end. » Mieaiah was put in Jail for his brave words; evidently no new ex- » perience for him. Ah. but how } much better to boa truth-speaking £ prophet in jail than a lying sycophant in the courts of the king! t MDriftsh has a niche in the world’s . gallery of immortal heroes, who / have dared to stand alone, strong i in their own souls and In the con--1 sciousness of Divine approval. f j ThL minor prophet first used the t words, quoted by Jesus as applying i to Himself, that he saw Israel as , 1 sheep having no shepherd. His was , j the compassionate spirit of a great t soul. His love of men and of truth : were one. In his steadfast loyalty to God there was more of patriotism than in the time-saving chorust es of thi for hundred. No charity in the world needs anything today t more than it ueeds brave, outspok- ' en prophets of the plain truth of , | Hod, Armaments and legions are } no substitute for clear counsels of f righteousness. Clear Vision In a Fog As Ahab's four hundred truckling prophets had confused the • counsels of the two kingdoms, so ' today our world is beneath a cloud of darkening words. Never before was so much comment written a- _ bout governments and the social order. Books, articles, editorials, ' lectures, sermons, radio talks, all , devoted to the present crisis, pour forth endlessly. We grope in a fog ;of bewildering language. I It is a time to return to sim'plicity, and to seek the plaid old counsel of God's word. The function of ' every Mieaiah is clear-to speak the things as he sees it, for the ( God of things as they are. The old fashioned virtues were never so . desperately needed as now—truth , honor, chastity, good will, justice, mercy. Except as individual per- , sons get right the whole world cannot be made right. It is time j for us all to go back to Sunday School, and learn the primary and unshakable realities of religion and life. Henry Van Dyke’s familiar lines are pertinent—and, incidentally, a good description of the Prophet Micaiaa: — "Four things a man must learn to do. [if he would make his record true: To think without confusion clearly. To love his fellow men sincerely: To act from honest motives purely. And to trust in God and heaven securely." SEVEN SENTENCE SERMONS A little act may be larger than a big aspiration.—Henry Cope. * • # God is better served in resisting i a temptation to evil than in many j formal prayers. — William Penn, i * * * The mark of rank in nature is ca-1 pacify for pain.

I WHAT FAMILIAR NAMES MEAN I WATCH THISCOLUMN DAILY — Copyrighted hy DR. HARRY A. DEFERRARI * . • LANG. The family name "Lang" also spelled "Lange” may be of Scottish, northern English, or German origin. The southern English equivalent of this name is "Long." |it was obviously flrst given as a nickname to tall persons. A eerI tain Hamo le Lang and a John le j Lange are mentioned in an Eng- ■ list) list of names of the year 13U0. lin Germany “Lang" and "Lange” , are sometimes modern shotrened ! forms of such old Germanic personal names as “Langhart" (longI boldt and (long-wolf). HUGH. The personal name "Hugh”, which is the first element of “Houston" was extremely common throughout Europe at the time when personal names were becoming hereditary as family names. Common French forms which spread rapidly in England are "Hust" and “Huett". These are diminutives of "Hugues" and its English equivalents are ultimately of Germanic origin, and mean “mind" and "intelligence." “Huett" and "Huet" are found recorded in English documents as far back as the 16th century. 'HUGHES. The family name i “Hughes" with its great many I variations is found throughout \ England, it means "the son of Hugh.” "Hugh" is an ancient Teutonic personal name which means "minti." —Q —— Sea Captain Declares Cannibals Amiable Rochester, N. Y. (U.R) — Cannibals are easy to get along with if one knows how to handle them, according to Capt. Edward A. Salisbury. The captain, who for 40 years has explored the remote corners of the world and often has been where man-eating tribes are a reality, visited Rochester before embarking on another voyage. “The average cannibal has the mind of a 4-year old child,” the captain explained. "My attitude toward them has to be like that of a nurse toward a group of children. Should they begin to squabble, it is forgotten as soon as their attention is turned to something else. My only problem, if they begin to view me as a potential meal, is to distract their attention.” The captain also exploded the popular belief about the cannibals' pot with the assertion that victims are not boiled in a large pot but are “cooked over hot rocks.” If that Is no consolation, the captain offered a bit of comfort with the statement that cannibals do not like white men as their “main dish” but prefer members of an enemy tribe as a | choice diet. o New Orleans to Pick Fair Beauty Contestant New Orleans, (U.R) — Plans for a “Century of Progress Ball” in New Orleans to select dancers to represent Louisiana in a na-tion-wide competition at the Chicago Worl'J Fair are near completion. In addition to selecting the amateur dancers, a beauty queen; will be chosen to compete in the . contest for the title of "Ail Ameri- , can Girl" at the Fair. •

NEW PASSENGER PLANE MAI DO 205 M, P. H. Racing Pilot Designs Ship i For Commercial Use At Kansas City Kansas City, Mo., (U.R) — Top speeds of 250 miles an hour for passenger planes were predicted ; following first tests here of a new creation designed by Ben O. How--1 ard, United Air Lines and famed racing pilot. " | The new plane has been under construction here since December at the American Eagle Aircraft ! factory. The -current design pro- ' vides seating space for four per- ‘ sons including the pilot. Forecast 300 Miles Per Hour It is powered with a 420 horse--1 power Wasp motor. The builders ‘ believe that with attachment of a ' supercharger, a top speed of '3OO 1 miles could be attained. Wings are covered with plywood 1 and the fuselage is covered with metal, plywood and fabric. It lias 1 a 31 foot wing span add measures 1 24V4 feet in length. Howard incorporated many sea--1 tures in the new ship discovered through his experience aw a racing pilot. "Pete" Won Races In 1930 Howard built “Pete,” a 1 small white monoplane, which he : won honors with at the Cleveland ! National Air Races that year. The j cockpit was so small that he>4iad , to remove his shoes to get his feet on the ruuTTer bar. "Pete's" top speed of 170 miles an hour jvas sufficient to win all of the light powered races and was good enough for a fourth in the Thompson Trophy event, the American speed classic, latter he built two other high- | speed racing ships "Ike” and ' "Mike”. Both are low wing monoplanes and have given good account of themselves in various national race meets. ’ Howard plans to place his model | in production if later tests prove its success. r ~ ° , Chief Wanted Pay For Rain 1 Topeka, Kan.— (U.R) — Scarcely i had th£ debris from a recent wind and rinn storm been cleared away when a Kaw Indian chief called on ' the secretary of Governor Alf M.
