I »» Military Service Outlined To Boys Representatives of the armed services discussed the military service and each American’s obligation with a number of the Decatur high school senior boys Thursday at the school. Discussing the matter with the boys were: Sgt. William B. Reese, United States Army; Sgt. B. R. Sinks, United States Marine Corps; Sgt. Bert Crosby, United States Air Force: and CSI F. J. LaPlente, United States Navy. Reese briefly listed the military obligation to those present, explaining that upon a bov’s 18th birthday he incurs an obligation of six years of military service, which may be fulfilled five ways. The five ways of fulfilling the obligation, Reese pointed out, were by enlisting in one of the regular services: enlisting in one of the reserve units; being called by the selective service system; by enlisting in the active reserve; or by enlisting in the National Guard for a period of seven and one-half years, with six months of active duty. Five general enlistments were outlined briefly, which are as follows: age 17 to 27 or 34, depending on good physical condition; must meet educational requirements; must be a citizen, and of good character.

few* J Bibls Rxtsrlal: Psalm 18:7-111 ' 119:33-40; Acta 8:26-30: II Timothy 3:14-17; II Pete* 1:16-21. Devotional Reading: Psalm 19:7-14. The Bible Lesson for November 4,1962 WHY the Bible? Some one might think that the Christian religion has a Bible just to keep up with the procession; for every religion in the world that |WS7HE| has as many as a million memI bers, has a Bible of some kind, and Christianity would « 1 ■ ' 3e very °dd if did not - But this is not the reason ‘ ■ we have a Bible, is this the rea- ■ W ■■ son—that God can Dr. Foreman speak to man only in a written Word? Not at all. Did you ever stop to think that the whole Bible was written by persons who did not have a whole Bible? In fact, a great deal of the Bible is devoted to accounts of how God ha? been found in other ways as well as in the Bible. Is the reason for the Bible our need of a book of rules? No, the Bible itself does contain a few rules, but nearly every page of it is something else besides rules. Inspired One reason the church cherishes the Bible is becattse we believe it to be inspired by God himself. This does not mean that God dictated the various books of the Bible, certainly not in English. What we do mean is that God was at work in the entire process by which the Bible has come down to us. You would cherish every letter of one you love; if your loved one was (for instance) a teacher of art, you would no doubt be glad to have pictures or sculpture done by her pupils. Perhaps your friend the teacher did not paint this picture herself, but you can tell it must have been done by one of her pupils. “It looks like her,” you say. In the same way, God did not hold the pen " for the writers of the Bible; but persons who have assuredly known God, have through the ages recognized the unmistakable marks of God’s thought and action here. It is as difficult to “prove” the inspiration of Scripture as to prove that Mozart was a great musician. But both the Bible and the music can be studied. Out of the study comes appreciation, and out of the appreciation grows the conviction of inspiration. ‘ You can put up a shack on desert sands or at the edge of the swamp. But if what you want to erect is a skyscraper or a cathedral, you have to look for solid , rock foundations. So when you are building a life, as Jesus said, you need to build it on a rock, not on sand. We feel the need of a court of last resort, a Judge above all judges. We need an accurate compass, we need a dependable light, a map with roads plainly marked. Now the Bible is all of these things, and people -who have discovered its value have used such words as these about it. For the Protestant Christian of every kind, in spite of all our smaller or greater differences, the Bible stands as the supreme authority, even above the church. We do not find codes of rules here; we find living men and women who had authentically known God. In their life-experi-ences and in their reflections and conclusions, we find again the will of God for ourselves. Some treasured heirlooms are valued highly because they are irreplaceable. So the Bible is invaluable, because it is unique. Most books answer some questions, the Bible answers the central questions. The Bible gives us the answers we do not find elsewhere. The Bible speaks to our most agonized questionings, our most insatiable quests. What is my destiny, as a human being? Am I a kind of accident, along with other human beings, or are we all part of the plan of GodT How can I, poor, sick as I am, come to terms With the high God? What is God like? What can I believe about Him, and what does he want me to do? When I come to the inevitable end of this life, and face the last dark doorway, the last toll-gate, what lies beyond? When I stand at the graveside of a loved one, must I stand forever alone? When I look into the vast reaches of space to the galaxies receding ever beyond our reach, do I find there only mindless energy or do I dare to see above all, above all, infinite and eternal love? The Bible and the Bible alone give* us the answers to such questions.

TAKE TIME TO REFUEL Rev. James R. Meadows Any daily working schedule, be it spiritual or any other kind, that does not - provide for certain periods of calm and reflection, is a faulty one. Engines, human and mechanical, must lay up long enough to be reserved. When this is neglected there is bound to be a breakdown sooner or later — and it’s usually serious. Men of the last century frequently learn from the obituary page of our daily paper of the death of some old friend or well-known character of this and earlier years. Fatal heart maladies in men from forty years of age and on reveal that their daily routine made no provision for relaxation and quiet. Conferences are continued at lunch so that no time may be wasted. Other engagements extend far into the night. I happened to see the daily schedule of appointments for a man recently. It he succeeded in meeting half of them he would have to go with little preparation. There just wasn’t time for any; for conferences and the like have a bad habit of over-running the time allotted to them. No time for prayer or study was provided for, and when I asked about this the young man shrugged his shoulders helplessly. Well, we just have to be still to get well acquainted with God. Ease up the rush somewhere and relax so that God can speak to you. No man gets the best out of his spiritual life if he is too busy to think of God and pray without counting the seconds he is giving to it.

ease the mind by periods of reflective quiet. Our spiritual life never grows old enough to take care of itself. We have to feed it, and we have to go to God for that food, and it is found in His Holy Word. With the crisis that America is facing at this time it is so important that we take an inventory of our relationship towards our God and our Lord Jesus Christ, for that is a matter that should be taken care of immediately if we want to have peace in our heart.
