Brave Spirits Confront Real Issue In Day’s Destiny Principle Thut Lies Deeper Than Political Platforms And Panaceas — Sober Thoughts Concerning An Unsober World.

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS Mostly we dodge the issue; but some tew brave spirits are cleareyed to the tremendous truth that the world's real problem today is the building of a new order of society wherein men and women will be trw, and know how to use free dom: social-minded, without either slackerism or selfishness; clean and strong In body and mind, and bent upon achieving the highest possible form of human destiny for everybody. In other words, the new civllizatio nwhich the world is seeking will not be any ill-balanced thing i like Rusaianism or Fascism or i Nazism or existing capitalism, but a life ot liberty, responsibility, service and brotherhoodThis is the task we confront. It will be slow (our indulgence in dreams of a world remade overnight by some act ot legislation or revolution is evidence of our immaturity); it will be hard; it will be gradual. And it will never, never be accomplished until we have got down to the roots of human character, and have applied the forces which make men different in the very springs of their nature. That remains, as it always have been, primarily the work of relig ion. We shall never transform society as a whole until we have made over men and women as individuals. The real world-chang-ers are appraisal we may discover that many unknown Sunday school teachers have wrought more mightily than some press-agented publicits. Books, And The Book Publishers' lists are overloaded nowadays with panaceas for society's manifest ills. Wjser than all of them is the old Book, already in the possession of most civilized persons, which deals directly with cause and effect. The Bible advocates no special order of organization for society; but from first to last it concerns itself with the heart of man, out of which are the issues of life. It is supremely interested in character; and in man's relation to God, which sbaps his character. "Line upon line, precept upon precept," this old Book, into which is distilled the finest wisdom of the ages and of the sages, plus the dear will of the Eternal, stresses the importance of personality and character. It stamps man with Divine qualities. Its goal is godliness in human behaviour. Naturally, such a Book could • »•»»•••»•♦••»»»• * The Sunday School Lesson * • for August 16 is The Harvest • • of Life.—Gal. 6:1-10. * ♦ ••»♦»•»»•»♦•»»»*

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1936.

| not be silent upon the subject of I self-indulgence and self-control. Its pictures of drunkenness are among the most vivid in literature. It offers, instead of the excitement ot alcohol, the exhilarations of the Spirit. Old as the race are the manifest evils of drunkenness. They haw been obvious since the days bt Noah. Throughout the ages the greatest pens have lent themselves to this theme. If horrible examples were sufflcient to teach the dangers and evils of indulgence in strong drink humanity would have been well taught long ago. ij Society will not have attained to the level for which the best i minds strive until some way has . i been found of lifting ’.he perils and i blight of liquor from such men, and from the race. It simply is i not fair to a young man to start , | him out in life with a drinking habit that is a potential curse. Is Younger Generation Stupid? One of the striking phases of the old novel. "Ben Hur," was its portrayal of the hero's measures to prepare himself and his followers for armed service ot the Galilean Teacher, when the hour of need should strike. To every youthful reader the book cried, "Prepare! ; Prepare!” Youth is the preparation time ') for great living and great doing. Wise young men and women throughout the ages have grasped this profound truth and have devoted themselves sternly to the duty of making ready for destiny. This means self-discipline and self- . denial. One cannot spent his spare daytime hours with the sporting page, and his evenings at the movies and dances, and still fit himself for a great career. No more can one follow every •fashion and indulge every desire. Real life demands a more Spartan regimen of training than an athletic career. There are those who declare that i the present "younger genertaion" is stupid in its indifference to life's serious side, and in its engrossment in the pleasures of the mo- , ment. Os course, "No generaliza- , tion is true—not even this one.” Certainly some modern habits are i not wise—such as the drinking . usages that prevail among both men and young women. Those who make this blunder are not getting ready for a great tomorrow, as the physician, the statemen and the moralist will unite in telling them. Significant Signposts If youth had what the pidginEnglish of the Far East calls "savvy" it would catch the sfc- ’ nificaitce of prevailing attitudes to- ' ward the use of liquor. Nobody was ever turned down in applying for a job because he

did not drink. No young man was ever rejected by the girl he loved because he was a total abstainer. Insurance companies never de- ' clined a risk because he did not touch booze. Laws do not penalize automobile drivers tor staying sobty. Family atmosphere has never been improved by the odor of strong drink. Social workers do not report that relief rolls are swelled by temperance. Battles have been lost by drunkenness in the high command; but none was ever won by an intoxicated staff. All the arguments that should appeal to keen, far-sighted youth are in favor of complete abstainence from alcohol. The Great Goal All high-minded and forward- [ looking persons cherish as their goal a spiritual conception of life. That is a greater argument for total abstinence than any amount of horror statistics. On this basis the New Testament establishes its position. At the core ot the passage from Galatians which is the present Lesson we have this pregnant summary:—"He that sowetb unto his i own flesh shall ot the flesh reap I corruption; but he that soweth unto the Spirit shall ot the Spirit reap I eternal life.” Elsewhere, in the | great eighth chapter of Romans, j Paul says, "To be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually mind'ed is life and peace.” — SEVEN SENTENCE SERMONS Irresponsibility and individualism never built a nation or a society or a civilization. —William T.

We do not need more national development; We need more spiritual development: We do not need more intellectual power; We need more spiritual power: • We do not need more knowledge; We need more character; We do not need more law; We need more religion. —Calvin Coolidge. o First M, E.
