O f The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago. 'T'RUTH must be translated Into/ -*• living, and there is no place where it can be more effective than in the home. We will want to make much of this lesson, for it is the only one during the entire year " which ddals directly with the home. » , The book of Proverbs, to which we jvere introduced last Sunday, abounds In practical advice' With a definitely spiritual emphasis, a combination at once wholesome and effective. This is the first of eight leSsons making application of Prov erbs to the problems of modem life. Everyone in the home has a measure of responsibility for mak- „ iag the/ family life what it ought •to he. No one from the small child to the great-grandmother is with out influence, and each must con tribute to the welfare of the home. Our lesson reaches from the young person to the grandfather rejoic ing in his children’s children. It begins quite properly with . I. Youth Looking to Parents (1:8, S; 6:20-23; 23:22-26). ‘V ’OUNG people want to be well- dressed and properly groomed. They are Interested In that which adorns and improves their appear ance. It is right that they should have such concern. Let us remind them, however, that a young man or woman should not only be phys ically well-groomed, but spiritual ly attractive as well. If we should give as much thought to that side of our beings as we do to our bodies, there would be wonderful improve ment in the life of the individual and in the home. The child who is properly Instruct ed, and who is responsive to that in struction, is prepared for life no matter where it may lead him (6:22) Wherever and whenever he needs; guidance, night or day, it is with him. Even when he sleeps, he is in the hand o fsGod for blessing. Let no young man or woman be betrayed into that awful folly of our day which neglects the teach ing of parents and of the church. Disaster is ahead on that road —sure disaster; and swift! But now look, at the other side of the matter; where we see 13. Parents Looking After Youth (19:18; 22:6). f |'HERE is a foolish idea current; in our day which says that the way to rear children is to let them develop according to their own in terests and instincts, without disci pline or definite guidance. The fruits of that kind o f child training are now being harvested in the present crop of juvenile delin quents. We have the sad and awful proof before us that children can not be reared that way. We are not pleading for a re turn to the unduly restrictive measures of some of our forefa thers; children are not helped by harshness or cruelty. But there Is a proper place for definite in struction, for discipline, yes, even for chastening when that becomes necessary. The larger part, and the most ef fective part, of this matter is the training of the child (22:6) and when properly done it brings forth the fin est of results in later life. The boy who has been taught and directed right may get on a sidetrack for a time, but there is always the prom ise of a return to the right way. This business of rearing children calls for the best any of us can put into it, and over and above that, all the grace and wisdom that God can and will give us. We have reserved one verse for our final point, for here we find III, Age and Youth Working To gether (17:6). • f~YLD men need encouragement, and they receive it la no rich er or more satisfying measure than in the delight they take In their children’s children. Young people should remember that, and not fail to give to their grand parents, as well as their parents, the full measure of their interest and devotion. But now note that “ the glory of children are their fathers,” yes, and grandfathers. How sad it is when a hoy has to be ashamed of his fa ther or one of his grandparents. That puts on each one of us who has children a truly weighty respon sibility. We must walk worthily be fore God, and before our children, even down to old age, when our grandchildren look to us for an ex ample of godliness and gracious liv ing. May God help us!

' Cold facts that represent the the annual toll o f traffic accidents on ouur streets and highways. Those who consider the impli cations of these tragic figures are impressed by them and at the same time are appalled by the proof that a dreadful plague has settled over'the -nation. For our annual traffic accidente rate is indeed a plague.'It sweeps over " the country evei-y day and leaves -in its wake twisted, lifeless bod ies or painfully mangled limbs. Translated into terms of grief, bines at work in fields. I followed a 1940-Buick frpra Bellefontaine to Lima at exactly 40 miles per hour. I don’t need to tell you that the car looked like i ■i ■■ iimii ir.T mjiiiii ,n i n 11" ■ 1 physical and mental/suffering, frustrated hopes and economic loss, this ravaging plague over whelms the mind. Just as cancer and infantile paralysis can snatch children from their fam ilies, so can the unsafe driver be hind the wheel o f a powerful auto mobile. Just as disease can and does take fathers and mothers away, leaving children without protection and wards of the state, so can the traffic accident. Yet, people who shudder at the mention o f cancer, heart di sease or any other sickness con tinue to take needless risks while driving. People who cannot bear the sight o f an injured kitten at the same time carelessly walk in front o f vehicles at rk}c o f their own linjl\. It is time we waked up to our selves, It Is time all the people unite in responsible effort to save the lives and homes of themselves an neighbors. Wjipe out the plague, Make America safe, new. The partial eclipse of the Chi cago Sun results in plans to change it to a tabloid. Someone ought to show Marshall Field HI a postage stamp; he might get an idea. I remember 'way hack when a workman was less interested in what he got than what he got done, Why do I keep on disliking re- mused: “ It would be about half as big i f they took out the vulgar words.” A clerk in the souvenir store in Ephrata, Pa., told granddaughter Sue how to stick a label on the book, “ Rosanna o f the Amish.” Said he: “ You yust make it all over vet.” A Hollywood writer says that redorcating Ruth Merrick's house cost $30,00. She must have paper ed both bedrooms, • Josephus Daniels •says “Mili tary training elevates soldiers above citizens.” There's nothing America likes better than having somebody elevated above citizens! Whoever has been sailing those saucers across the thin" blue yon der would do us a favor at our house by shooting a few cups to go with 'em. - A man held for shooting his wife cleared up everything by explaining that he couldn’t live without her, „ - Falsely imprisoned 21 years, Frank Harris has been pardoned hut is being held until he presents a “ suitable plan for living” If that’s a. requisite for keeping out o f jail, Frank had better move over and make room for the rest o f us. I ’ts surprising how well I get along with Walter Winchell on vacation. A Kansas bank that went broke when it was in style fo r hanks to go broke naas been filled with wheat. It never had more liquid assets- Congress didn't get around to its" plan 'of t o n in g bankrupt railroads back to their stock hol ders, .There should be a similar law to turn the country back to the Indnans. So far I ’ ve been able to escape the dispense of paying $39.50 (“ only” that is) fo r a “ sport and leisure” coat. The Duke o f Windsor is “ rush ing his memoirs,” a writer re veals; The Duke has rushed a lot o f things in his time. Truman is installing a tele vision set in the White House, It will he a success if he can see himself as others see him. Mexican beggars may reject a centavo (about a penny) “in the most energetic manner they deem convenient to the occasion” - - like a bellhop rejects a dime tip.
