[ THE WORLD'S MOSI WIDELY USED DEVOTIONAL GUIDE

THURSDAY, MARCH 1 Read Luke 12:13-21 ’* A man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. (Luke 12:15.) A parable has been described as an earthly story with a heavenly meaning.” Jesus used many parables to illustrate His teachings. For instance, He told the parable of the rich man who had bountiful harvests and decided to build larger barns to hold them. Thus he planned to have “goods laid up for many years” so that he could take his “ease, eat, drink, and be merry.” But God said to him, “Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee.” Jesus concluded the parable, saying, “So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.” What an example of our world today! People spend so much effort and worry accumulating and increasing material wealth. They give so little time and attention to laying up spiritual treasure, which cannot be taken away, even by death. These are the treasures of love, mercy, kindness, justice—fruits of being faithful followers of Christ, of His way of life. . PRAYER: Our Father, forgive us for striving for earthly pleasures and possessions. Turn our minds and hearts to seek spiritual treasures which pass not away. Trusting Thee to supply our needs, in Christ’s name we offer our prayer. Amen. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY “Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.” Eva M. Muma (Michigan) COPYRIGHT - THE UPPER ROOM UNCLE EB from EBENEZER Soys:

DEAR MISTER ERITOR: I see by the papers where a Congressman from Georgia says the Guvernment has got to spend another $lO million this year to git rid of hog cholera. That’s one item that won’t have no trouble gitting through the Congress. Them same Congressmen that voted agin gitting rid of ignorance with Federal aid to education will vote solid to git rid of hog cholera. Long ago they took note of the political fact that more votes is in pigs than In education. Speaking of education, 1 was reading a piece in a magazine where teachers in some cities is “gravely concerned over the rising hemline” among high school girls. I reckon this is tendollar talk meaning high school girls is exposing too much leg. The piece said it had got so serious in some parts of the country that 37 girls was suspended from one high school in New York. I ain’t acquainted with these things well enough to pass a opinion on it. When I was a boy nobody ever spoke of a girl having legs. They was referred to in a very low voice as limbs. But I do know some changes in the attitude of wimmen in these matters has took place down through the years. I recollect when I was a boy, fer instant, that when a windstorm come up the wimmen folks would always grab fer their skirt. Now they always grab fer their hat. _ I brung up this hemline item at the country store Saturday night and Ed Doolittle claimed hemlines has been rising now fer

some time among young and old alike and the matter ain’t worthy o£ much attention. He says about all this magazine piece proves is that the high school girl is more interested in her frame than she is in her frame of mind and they ain’t nothing wrong with that in these times. In fact, allowed Ed, it was right smart thinking. As long as a feller picks out his girl from looking at her hosiery instead of looking into her heart, claims Ed, the frame is the thing. But it could be, Mister Editor, that Ed is a little too broadminded on the subject of hemlines. Ed watches television a heap and some of them winunen on television can git a feller confused about both hemlines and necklines. I would like to git a opinion from that school teacher that has been fussing about my spelling and grammer. It would be nice to git a letter with the spelling and grammer done real proper, even if her opinion was all wrong. But gitting back to them Congressmen, I see by the papers where both the Democrats and Republicans in this new session of the Congress is setting up committees to help the farmer. If I recollect right, ever Congress since George Washington has set up somepun to help the fanner. What they actual want to do is help him mark his ballot. Yours truly. Uncle EB LYCEUM CLUB Lyceum Club will meet March 7, at 8 p. m. with Mrs. Kenneth Stump. Roll call is “A Trip I Would Like to Take”. The program will be a travel film by Mrs. Lester Gentzhorn and Mrs. Earl Tom, and interest points of Ind. by Mrs. Forrest Postma. Next meeting will be April 4.

It's Your World I have the good fortune to number among my friends a woman who until recently was one of the greatest sopranos of the world. On one occasion she and her teacher who always travelled with her spent a day in our home. The teacher, an older man, was a very wise man and an able physchologist. We discussed many of the practical applications of a sound psychology. The singer taught by him had a marvelous ability not only to sing beautifully but to project her voice and her song. The man told us the secret of it. “Where you stand” he said “is your portion of the world. For the time being it is yours.” He stood up and diagramming with his hands the square place where he stood repeated his words “This part of the world is yours. From it with power and author-

ity you can project yourself, your message and your influence.” It is something of the utmost practicality. Where I stand for the time being is my world. It belongs to me. I own it in the most real sense. In like manner where you stand is yours, your world, it belongs for the time to you alone. Use it so. Have you something to say. Say it. Have you a message. Deliver it. Have you a responsible job to do. Do it. Not with fear and trembling and hesitancy but with force and power and authority. That part of the world is for the moment given to you to use. Use it. Thus you fulfill in part the mission that as part of an infinite scheme is entrusted to you. If your thinking has been honest and your motives generous you have the full divinely given right to utter it all with the accurance that it will be given infinite support. One other word with the acceptance of this personal, unique responsibility we will have done our part. It is not ours to shape and rule and govern the entire world. That is too big for the wisest of us. But we do have control of the space allotted to us--for a purpose. USE IT BRAVELY! ! FULFILL THAT PURPOSE! ! ! IT IS YOUR WORLD. Copywright 1961. Louis W.

SECTION B

THE GOOD OLD DAYS Stillson’s Men’s Store came across an advertisement that they ran during the early depression days. Explaining that they had opened their store to the public in spite of adverse times, the ad went on to point out some of the prices they were able to offer. Boys’ knickers (remember them?) were selling for 69c, men’s overalls for 69c, and work socks could be had for a dime a pair. In addition they said that they would do cleaning and pressing at 25c a garment, but they explained that they couldn’t call for or deliver the garments at that price.

Rod Serling, one of the better TV writers plying his.trade and creator of the pupular Twilight Zone show, is said to be planning a one-man exodus from the entertainment field. A desire to retire from the rat-race and teach school is the reason. Serling’s rat-race might just be a self-inflicted dilemma, born of a situation where one has too many irons warming in the fire. Along with personally writing many of the Twilight scripts, Serling dabbles in stage writing, screenplays, writing for TV specials and other heavy writing assignments that come his way. There’s little excuse for you getting in a private rat-race searching out the best TV buy in town.
