As we look at our world today, many people are starving. People have traded one set of masters for another. Communications has broken down. Many institutions are falling in the wake. Youth is copping out on life with drug addiction, alcohol, indiscriminate sex, and even suicide.

The purely material things of life are not the great essentials of happiness. They are capable of adding wonderfully to the joys of life.
