Ike Enjoying Golf Outing On Vacation AUGUSTA. Ga. <UPI» —President Eisenhower, openly pleased at the 70-degree weather which greeted him on his arrival here Thursday, planned another round of golf today. The President is here to get in some rest before embarking on a 20.000-mile tour of Europe and the Middle East next month. The President flew here from Washington Thursday for a week or so of golf and sunshine. Mrs. Eisenhower, who will observe her 63rd birthday Saturday, stayed behind for a social engagement and then traveled to Augusta on an overnight train. The opening of each fall season at the Augusta National is strictly stag. After Sunday, members of the exclusive club may have their wives with them if there is housing space available. Thus, until late Sunday the First Lady* was expected politely to stay clear of the main buildings of the club and the golf links. This limitation worked no real hardship on her, however, because she and the President reside in a luxurious cottage known locally as "Mamie’s Cabin."

Unto Death Lesson for November 15,1959 IT HAS OFTEN been dangerous to be a Christian. This should I not be a surprise to any one who ! knows the story of Jesus. He himself said that if a man wanted to be his follower he would have to takeup a cross every day. Christians nowadays often wear crosses as jewelry, but what Jesus meant

was no trinket. Indeed, in his time nobody would have ' dreamed of making an ornament in the shape of a ! cross. (Did you ever see a neck- . lace or watch- ’ chain with a tiny

electric chair at- loreman tached?) A cross always meant one thing: a horrible death. Not a death by accident, not a suicide, but a death by court order or mob violence, a form of death inflicted only on the worst criminals, enemies of society. You will have to . be considered a criminal, Jesus , said in effect, you will have to be prepared literally to be executed as a criminal, if you are going to follow in my footsteps. People Don't Die for. Opinions ; Most Christians throughout the centuries have not been called on • to be actually killed for their faith. ' L Jesus did not mean that only those ■ who die a martyr's death can be considered Christians. Still, in almost every age of > there have been martyrs. First, inthe long list is a man named Stephen, whose story is told in Acts. A brilliant scholar, a convincing’debater, he proved to be so good at showing how right faith is, that his enemies decided the only way to stop him was to arrest him. Perhaps they did not z mean to kill him; but kill him they* did, in what is surely one of the strangest lynchinga in history. For the men who stoned Stephen td death were not a mob acting without knowledge of the court. They

were members of the court itself. Now, some one might ask why Stephen was stubborn. Why couldn’t he agree with the majority? (In that court he was a minority of One.) Why couldn't he at least keep his opinions to himself ? If Christianity were a matter of opinions, of course Stephen could have kept his to himself. But people don’t die for opinions. They die for convictions. And a convic,tion does not go down to the utterJmost depths of a man’s mind and soul unless he is willing to die for it. Christianity is not a matter of opinions that can easily be changed. It is a matter of people who have convictions which change their whole lives, so that their lives are expressions of their convictions. They will lose life rather than surrender. Martyn la Oar Time (The roll of those who have died for their Christian faith is a long jjne. It is not finished, and it has grown much longer in our time. The writer of these lines has worshipped in a “refugee” congregation in Korea, a martyr church. Every member of it is a native of north Korea, who left home to come to south Korea, a strange land to him and not too hospitable either —to begin life again in poverty but in Christian freedom. Not only that, but almost every member of that congregation has lost some relative, murdered by communist orders. Centuries ago the church used to distinguish between “red” and “white” martyrs. The first kind sealed their testimony in blood. The second kind were not killed but, being always ready to die, suffered for their faith in other ways, perhaps long continued. All honor to martyrs of both kinds. Most of the foreign missionaries, or “fraternal workers” as they are often called, live as white martyrs. Beyond our ordinary comforts of home, away from most of their families, exposed daily to contagion, surrounded by a world so depressing that many missionaries’ minds have given way under the strain, overworked and too seldom reinforced, they nevertheless live rejoicing. Every one has heard of the young missionaries who were murdered by those Amazon Indians. Their widows are carrying on their unfinished work today. The wives have not been killed; but who shall say they are not equally martyrs?

PLEASANT VALLEY WESLEYAN H. D. Rich, pastor

Last Sunday toas a good day all day at this friendly little country church. Our pastor spoke on the subject “Finding the will of God.” In the morning worship service, we were happy to have visitors from Decatur in this service. Next Sunday, the morning sermon will be “Lifting Christ Up.” We had a very fine parsonage fund offering given in the Sunday School offering. Our people are growing in spiritual things, which is a great encouragement to any pastor. We are getting ready for a revival which begins next Wednesday night at 7:30. We are expecting God to answer prayer and give us a soul stirring meeting, which will change the hearts and lives of all who will take the time to attend at least fifty per cent of these nightly services. We will be looking for you. ST. JOHN’S LUTHERAN CHURCH On U.S. 27, north Edwin A. H.

Are We Guily? Rev. J. R. Meadows Somewhere we read of the man who one Sunday sat through an entire service in church with his hat on his head. After the service an usher asked him, “What is the idea of sitting through the church service wearing your hat?” The man replied, “I have been a mem,ber of the church for two years, and I told my wife this morning I was going to make someone in the church speak to me if I died in the attempt.” Who can tell how many people there are. members and strangers too, who come to church hungry not only for the Word of God, but hungry for a friendly word of greeting frm God's people, and go away lonelier still. Too many

churches there are that are cold, i formal, unfriendly, unconcerned with strangers. It may be, of course, that some visitors are too] sensitive on this score. It may be that they sat beside other stranger, who likewise looked for a word of welcome from them. At any rate, most churches could be more friendly, especially to the strangers and the visitors, who are likely to be most conscious of a low temperature. Who knows how many opportunities to help another, to give and be a personal witness to the love of Christ, have been lost because we were silent
