The Cure For Envy Rev. J. R. Meadows Envy is a bad thing. Ttye green eyes cannot see things straight. A mind that is poisoned by the virus of that dangerous sin is liable to cause more harm than earth Can heal. If at arts' time we are in need of being on our guard against it it is right now when financial difficulties make us irritable and suspicious. The only antidote that can preserve our souls immune is true Christian love. “A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another; even as I have loved you, that ye

also love one another. By this shall men know that ye are my disciples, if ye love one another." If we substitute love by suspicion, envy, and gossip, we serve not Christ but the many enemy, and no one can tell how far the damage we cause might reach. ' Now is the time, friend, to show that you are more of a Christian than only in name. Now is the time when you can help your heavy-la-den fellowman to pull through by begin a real brother to him, taking him by your sympathy and help, and setting him straight by good advice. If church V>eople cannot rise in these hard days above the life the world lives, they should not expect God’s blessing to remain with them. THIS WEEK’S BIBLE VERSE "For our conservation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto His glorious body.” — Philippians 3:20, 21a.

Minister Lesson for October 26, 1957

THE man has various titles. He may himself prefer to be called by the simple democratic "Mister.” But he is also Pastor John Doe, and the Reverend John Doe, and maybe. Doctor Doe, besides. Some call him the preacher. But the title that binds him closest, perhaps, to ths Lord Jesus,

SB ■ vl Dr. Foremaa

is the word "Minister.” Jesus said: “The Son of man came not to be served but to serve.” The Latin word for "serve” in that verse (Mark 10:45) is the word from which our English word

“minister" is derived. It is the most inclusive of all the titles; it means in general one who is of service to others, and in particular one who serves in the name of Christ

The Mlsister’o Call Consider three points about ministers, which the people in the pews often overlook. One is the minister’s call. What he does is a "calling” rather than a "position". How does a minister come to be pastor of a particular church? That varies from one denomination to another, though not very much. But how does the minister come to be one in the first place? That is always the same, whether he is a Roman Catholic priest or a Protestant minister: he is a minister of Christ because he believes, he was called by the Lord to do and be just that. Could he be mistaken? Indeed he can. There are men in the ministry who have no business there. The problem of how to be sure about one’s call to the ministry is * problem for ministers, not for most of the people who read these lines. What we need to do, when we “call" a minister, is to be sure we get a man who among other atrong points has this: he is God’s man first of all; ours only becuase he eras God’s first. The Minister's Salary Some churches do not have salaried ministers. Most of the churches in America, however, do have salaried ministers. One thing that many church members do not realize ia that the salary of a minister is positively not the same thing as a weekly wage paid to a farm hand, or a business man’s return on an investment in stocks, or a fee paid to a lawyer. If you hire a man, he is your man. If you don't like what he is doing, you can fire him. But the minister is not a hired man. He is God’s man, at your service, but not under your thumb. The business man wants to get rich, or richer; his income builds up his fortune. But the minister's salary never grows to a fortune. The lawyer has a stated set of fees, and if he fs like some lawyers, he charges what the traffic will bear, i.e. he charges the wealthy more than the poor. In the Protestant church there is no scale of fees; most of what the minister does is free. Progressive ministers are today doing away with the wedding fee, for example, marrying only their own people and doing this as a part of the church’s service to its people. Furthermore, and this is most important, the minister’s salary, unlike professional fees, is NOT payment for services rendered. If the minister is any account his services are beyond price. (How much is it worth, in cash, to be comforted in sorrow, strengthened in temptation, illumined to spirit?) The salary is a subsidy enabling him to work without a salary! The Minister's Ambition Paul made it clear that he had a right to a salary; though he preferred not to use that right but to earn a . living as he went along. But even if he had been “paid," the salary could never have been the main thing with him. "That I may WIN some people”—not to build a kind of private empire, not to win people for himself, but for Christ. Only God save* men; but he saves men through men. And what price can be named which is a fair "payment” for saving a man’s soul? All dedicated men set the doing of their work above the paycheck in Importance. Their real heart’s ambition is not for more pay. Their ambition is greater effectiveness—a closer approach to perfection, whether their work is art. teaching, bridge-building or whatever else it may be. So the true minister's secret ambition is not a bigger congregation, more salary, more prestige: it is more souls w'en. The man to whom unhappiness is an end in itself becomes .a miserable egoist, unloved .by others and ‘ a dissappointment to himself.

Two Drug Salesmen Steal Flu Vaccine 4,000 Units Taken, One Man Arrested * « KANSAS CITY. Mo. (IP) — Two pharmaceutical salesmen plotting trouble for a business rival stole 4,000 units of Asian flu vaccine from the municipal airport here, police reported today. Much of the vaccine was recovered following arrest of James Flayzer, 24, Kansas City, who was held in lieu of $1,500 bond on a federal charge'of theft from an interstate shipment. Officers sought Charles C. Moore Jr., Overland Park, Kan., on a similar charge. Officers said Glayzer told police and FBI agents that Moore took the vaccine, contained in one of eight cases bound from the Pittman-Moore Laboratory at Indianapolis, to the company’s branch here, Monday night. He said Moore sold 150 ampules to a physician in a Johnson County, ’ Kan., suburban area for SI,OOO. Glayzer said another 100 ampules was hidden in a culvert, where police later retrieved it. Glayzer said he hid 20 ampules in an automobile at the home of a rival pharmaceutical salesman, Nick Davis, in the hope Davis would be blamed for the theft. Thirty ampules were "thrown away," Glayzer said, as he drove along a road. These were recovered. Police also recovered 49*4 ampules from a physician and 178 from a drug salesman who had bought 200 of the units and had sold 20 to a physician. Officers said the crime was solved after druggists and physicians reported to the PittmanMoore company here that someone was attempting to sell vaccine with the Pittman-Moore label.
