God In a Nation's Making
Text: Deuteronomy 8:11-20
By W. E. GILROY, D. I. Editor of Advance F our lessons seem insistent to the point of repetition upon the need of religion and the recognition of God in the life of a people we can only point out that the attitude of the .children of Israel made this insistence necessary, and the attitude of rhasses of people today make repetition and insistence necessary now. There are solemn words of warning spoken here. Beware, says Moses, of forgetting God and fail« ing to keep His commandments, = when soul and body are surfeited with ease and prosperity, and the hearts of men are lifted up with a feeling of their self-sufficiency and a forgetfulness of the dangers through which they have been led, destruction come upon them.

HE temptation of a people to national pride is very deep. We are apt to say that what we have achieved was through our own might and power. We are apt to become complacent and Pharisaic when we think of the wealth that we have created, and we are apt to . forget that these things could never have been done by ourselves but for the resources of nature and the powers and resources of God. Moses instructs the people to remember that it is God who gives
’ | periences of life!
them power to get wealth, that without God they are nothing, tha
everything they think, and do, and say, depends upon him.
” = = OW strange it is that men will not heed that solemin warning, so strongly enforced in the exWhen a man has forgotten the pit from which he was digged, he is in danger of falling into the pit again. When .a man has become proud of himself and of what he has done, he is in danger of having it all undone.
What men and nations build for an
themselves does not always make them great. self-satisfied and vain-glorious has cut from beneath itself the very foundations of true progress and betterment.

How can we make real to our people the vivid teaching A concerning the things that make a nation great, and the things that in a nation’s apparent greatness may bring it down to ruin if truth and righteousness and justice and mercy be forgotten or disregarded? Moses laid all the emphasis upon |’ human values. He was a far-see-ing prophet in setting the social

Doherty, New Head of Legion, ‘Born With 2 Strikes’ on Him
Son of Tannery Worker Sought Comforts Outside Home and Became Hard Working Lawyer.
LTHOUGH not expected within the next month, headquarters of the American Legion here today were being prepared for the new national commander, Daniel J. Doherty, Woburn, Mass., provincial lawyer, elected at the recent convention in New York.
Commander Doherty is now on# the high .seas bound for France, where, in company with other Legionnaires, he will make a tour of battlefields. He is expected in Indianapolis shortly after his return from Europe. Reserved and studious, Mr. Doherty is serious of mien, and although possessing humor and alive to a good crack, abstains from liquor and prefers the study to his club. His friends admit that he has political ambitions and that, successful in his campaign to head the Legion, he would be receptive to a Democratic nomination for Governor when Massachusetts elects one in 1939. The ambitions his friends ascribe to him do not jibe with his record. His only elective office was at 21, and. the youngest‘ office holder in New England, as president of the City Council of Woburn, a small suburb of Boston, whose principal industry is the tanning of hides. Quitting this, he has since been a quiet practitioner at the Massachusetts’ bar. ) ” ” ” F Jim or Jake gets in a jam, or Maggie is tired of Paddy’s’ slender Saturday night envelope, off they to to Counsellor Doherty, assured that he will advise them correctly—legally and © humanly. most of his cases are domestic, probably a relief to him from his earlier days as Assistant District Attorney for the County of Middlesex.

Mr. Doherty, his friends say, was born with two strikes on him. The son of a tannery worker, he soon sought additional comforts beyond his humble home and thought he could realize his desire by entering for accountancy. Following a graduation cum laude from Woburn’s high school he matriculated at Burdett College, a commercial school, and kept on to a C. P. A. degree at the Bentley School of Accounting ‘and Finance. # 2 = : E entered Suffolk Law School, the Beacon Hill institution of Dean Archer which is now affiliated with Suffolk University.
Except for his excursions into public office, he has practiced since 1919 following his discharge from the United States Navy in which he enlisted as a yoeman, thereafter becoming a pay clerk with assignments at Washington, Norfolk and Philadelphia. He is now a Lieuten-
