The eggs will be stored for drying later in the year and dis‘tribution to the school lunch programs, institutions and needy people. The department has been buying dried whole eggs for some time. The purchase of frozen eggs is for the purpose of further aiding egg producers during the flush production season while prices continue at relatively low levels.

__ <SP£ArtS\ knMTMtKXMd Uniform Sunday School Lamont Bible Material: II Chronicles 17; 1»-M Devotional Beading: II Chroniclee 20: 5-12. 18-21. r 1 - r AStroigCoHMtry Lenon for June 21, 1959 THE STORY of King Jehoaaphat in the Bible gives us a valuable illustration of what a “strong country" or nation is, and also how the various parts of institutions of a country support one another. When the words “strong” or “weak” are used of nations today, the meaning usually is a military one. A strong

nation is one that would be likely to win a war if it got into one. Now the kingdom of Judah, which had been pretty weak, revived its military strength under Jehoshaphat’s leadership. He reorganized

the army itself and also rebuilt the fortresses that guarded the strategic points in Judah. But there were other nations which were even stronger from a military view, and they did not outlast little Judah. There were other forms of strength in that nation. Support of Educatiou In those days there were no colleges, no schools in our sense of the word. Most of what we now teach in school was still unknown; we would call that civilization “barbaric” if it existed today. Nevertheless, even bookless people need education. King Jehoshaphat saw to it that the schools went to the people. He routed the priests, Levites and princes out of the capital city where most of them seem to have gone, and sent them around the country to teach the people where they lived. We can observe similar movements today in the village schools of India or the folkschools of Denmark. Many Americans seem to think you can’t have real education .without big expensive plants (including gymnasiums bigger than anything else); but where countries are small and poor, as Jehoshaphat’s was by our standards, you have to do some-

thing simpler. Support of the Court* ——* King Jehoshaphat knew that| even an educated and well-church-ed nation needs good courts. His strong charge to the judges he appointed is still as good as pew. (Incidentally, we note that he saw to it that every town had a court. If courts are not available, if they are too far and too few, you get the “west-of-the-Pecos” stuff, which is really not law at all.) The king advised the judges to make their decisions in the fear of God, not of men. Courts which make only such decisions as they know will be popular are basically unfair. A court must not ask: Will everybody like this? but is this fair and just in the sight of God? Furthermore, the king warned those judges against partiality, or taking bribes. “Peddlers, of influence’’ were a nuisance in those days as well as these. A court or a judge that can be bought, a lawyer who thinks only of his fee and his fame, are obstructions to justice. Some one has said that the whole purpose of the law is to protect the weak from the strong. And when courts are too weak to do that, the whole country slides into weakness and decay. Support of the Church Little if anything is said about organized religion in Jehoshaphat’s time. We may assume that the temple worship was going on, and we know the king suppressed many of the local shrines or “high places” as they were called. The trouble with those “high places” was that they tended to get off the track and actually become centers of idol-worship, sometimes of a repulsive sort. But the significant thing about this king's attitude to religion was that he expected it to push out into the other institutions of society. When his army was in a, tight place, he prayed, “We do not know what to do, but our eyes art upon Thee.” He reminded his judges that God was their Judge. He sent both priests and Levites out to teach. It takes not only a strong army, strong educational institutions and strong, courts to make a strong nation; a strong religion is needed as the base of it all. But the strength of a nation’s faith is not shown in its far-flung organizations nor in the number attending public worship. The test of a nation’s professed religion whs then and is now: Does it work out into the country's whole life ?
