Supporting The Church Bev. J. R. Meadows There is a support other than financial. Loyalty is not indexed alone by what goes out of the pocketbook Diligence in serving Christ is not measured by the amount of the occasional or accumulated gifts to the church. After all, putting self in position to be fed by the Gospel is an essential phase of supporting the church. The church stands as the divinely appointed agency for letting people know what the word of God is, and the church is supporter by faithful hearing of the word. Such hearers are necessary for the church's continuance; they show, that the church is needed and must go on. In so far as it is possible, the people of the church Sherman White & Co.

should be loyal attendants at all. its services, even though they are deprived temporarily of the privi-1 lege of turning their accustomed gifts of money into its treasury. The church does need financial support, but unless it has more than money from its members, it degrades into an ordinary institution where people congregate at will because they have paid dues for the privilege. Every Christian will do what he can financially for the support his church, but he will not be satisfied with thjt, for he knows that his presence and participation in the services of the church are likewise supporting the church.

If we can’t we must admit that social justice will not work where perhaps it is more needed than in most places; it won’t work where we spend most of our waking time, in that area of life that means so
UfSßpj/ k Dr. Foreman
much to us : i namely our jobs. Take away a man’s job and you have destroyed the basis of his self-re-spect. Take his job and you leave him rootless, a drifter, unhappy and without
meaning in a world that can find no use for him. “Work, or don’t oat" > When we turn to the Bible we should expect to find that the book which says so much about social i justice (remember, the name is not important but the thing is!), would give some hints about bow this principle of all-around fairness affects the day's work of men and women. And such is the case. The Apostle Paul, one of the “workingest” men that ever lived, had a problem church at Thesalonica. The Christians there had somehow got the notion that the end of this world was right around the corner. They were like people working in a field when a tornado is moving across the prairie; they take a lot more Interest in the tornado than in finishing the job. So these people had quit their jobs and were living, it seems, on their good-natured and still working friends. Paul moved right into that situation with a sharp order. “If any one will not work, let him not eat" Work, in short, is part of a Christian’s duty. The world does not owe anybody a living, no matter how pious he te. What’i wrong here) The Sabbath Commandment does not start with the Sabbath. It starts with the other six days: “Six days you shall labor ...” Old Testament and New alike set up work as part of the "whole duty of man.” But—here is where trouble begins. In our society as at present organized, it often happens that a man who wants to work, can’t Farmers sometimes have a hard time understanding that this is so. A farmer can find more to be done than he can do, year in year out. But the factory worker, the professional man, doesn’t always find it so simple. The factory has a layoff, or merges with another one, or just closes down. Thousands of men and women in a distant state can be thrown out of work by one decision in a New York office. As for the professional man, in hard times he does not have the clients he used to have. His expenses go on, his debts pile up, but his patients (if he is a doctor, for example) don’t pay, they can’t pay because they are out of work. So it may come about that literally millions of people, the ’ ghly educated and trained as well as countless unskilled workers, rind themselves either working for nothing or not having a chance to work at aIL “Do H *M year night" The wise reader will reflect on many other ways in which social justice and the day’s work are related. But lest we forget, we must call to mind another important side to this. Suppose I get what the world really owes me—not a living, but the chance to make a living; suppose I have a job, then what? Society has fulfilled its part by making work possible for me. What is my part now? One thing surely is that I should give the job everything I’ve got. Social justice means seeing that no man is jobless. Social justice also means that no man with a. job lies down on it. There are certain industries where the “workers" have things so well sewn up that it is almost impossible to fire a man unless he actually gets drunk on the job. It is surely social injustice to demand a job. and at the same tlmeilemand to hold it whether one really works at it or not Social justice, applied to the day’s work, isn’t all the responsibility of society—it is the responsibility of the workers as well. A Christian, especially, shows the genuineness of his Christianity by the way he goes about his day's work. ST. JOHN Evangelical and Reformed Vera Crux Louis C.

Oklahoma Attorney ) New Legion Leader ; •——„ .I,.,,—— r — — | Preston J. Moore Election Commander CHICAGO (UPI) - Preston J. Moore, a Stillwater, Okla., attorney, won an easy first ballot victory Thursday to become new national commander of the American Legion. Moore, 38, defeated his two leading opponents by a combined margin of more than 5-1 at the closing session of the Legion's 40th national convention. The World War II Air Force veteran tallied 2,503 votes to 525 for Truman C. Wold, 47, a Fargo, N.D., public relations man, and 28 votes for Howard C. Kingdom, 44, a Conneaut, Ohio, insurance man who earlier had charged the election was pre-decided by Legion “kingmakers.” After the election, Kingdom said he felt the election was fair and there was “no steamrolling.” He added, “There are no kingmakers in the legion.” Calls for Specific Program The 6-foot, 3-inch Moore began campaigning four years ago for the SIB,OOO-a-year post as leader 'of the nation’s 2,700,000 Legionnaires. A Democrat and former commander of his Oklahoma state department of the Legion. Moore promised he would become the i "travelingest man” in the nation as national commander. In his acceptance speech, Moore said the United States must seize the initiative against the “relentless advance of communism.” i “Let's stop being afraid. Above all, let’s stop waiting until the Kremlin calls the shots before we j react,” lie said. Moore said he felt the Legion ’ was scattering its effectiveness by taking a stand on every issue. He said he would bear down on "dundamental” Legion aims, such as hospitaliztion, care of widows, rehabilitation, care of the sick and disabled, orphans and child welfare. The delegates gave shouting approval to a host of resolutions, including one regarded as a slap at the Eisenhower administration. The resolution urged a halt to cutbacks in the defense program and suggested Congress take steps [to “again” give America world s leadership in armed might. Name New Officers Another resolution called on the administration to “create a spe- ! cial fulltime staff to formulate plans to combat the cold or psychological war being waged by the Communists.” The Legion also went on record asking Congress to "correct" U.S. Supreme Court decisions in which the justices "improperly assumed the role of legislative policy maker.” The resolution apparently referred to recent high court rulings concerning persons charged with

INDIANA (Continued from Page One) A fire broke out at a furnace display just inside the Manufacturers Building, but workers quickly put out the blaze before major damage was done. The fire, believed started by a match, occurred in a display booth of the Peerless Furnace Co. Heavy smoke rolled over the area as a curtain backdrop ignited. The fire was under control before the two fire trucks stationed at the fairgrounds arrived on the scene. Parade Prises Given Farm families from throughout the state flocked to the fairgrounds to celebrate ‘‘Farmers and Farm Organization Day” as fair officials saluted griculture. The nnual farmer’s prade and band contest drew hundreds of entrants and thousands of spectators as the youngsters vied for prizes and pres ti g e. Others jammed livestock buildings where the final championships of 1958 were awarded. Madison Heights High School band walked off with the top »100 prize among 27 entries in the band contest and Tri - County Grange (Bartholomew, Scott and Jackson Counties) won the S2OO prize for the best float in the parade. Ronnie Binkerd, a five-year-old Wabash County boy, stole the hearts of the judges and spectators in the pet parade division by leading two spotted pigs with a bottle of milk. Race Double Feature The final day of Grand Circuit harness racing was highlighted by the running of the $46,436 Fox Stake and the rich Hoosier Futurities for two-year-old pacers and trotters.
