"ThOu Shalt Do No Murder"

Nothing in this commandment forbids
the necessary killing of animals, either
to abate pests or to sustain life. Neither
does 1t forbid the execution of criminals,
for thus it would conflict with the divine
law elsewhere expressed, and praeticed
under the guidance of Moses by divine
direction.
This commandment teahes that life Is
To be priced, not jeopardized. The spirit
of this commandment, Jesus declared,
forbids an angry spirit of murder. re-
strained merely by fear of consequences.
This commandment would make it incum-
bent upon those who employ labor or
have supervision of their fellowmen to
take all reasonable precaution for safe
guarding against accidents of any kind.
To allow self interest or love of money
TO perpetuate dangerous conditions would

Commit Not Adultery

One result of mans fall has been a de-
pravity of the sexual appetites. The re-
suit is impurity, unchastity, lack of self
control. These tendencies lead away
from God and from righteousness. The
family unit of one husband and one wife,
originally established by the Almighty in
Eden, seems to be n cornerstone of right
eousness in both family and national life.
Purity. no adulteration, is the divine re-

Bear No False Witness"

Covetousness invariably precedes steal
ing, murder or SANDER. Covetousness is
heart disease which has to do with
every other crime All sins have their
basis in selfishness, and seIfshness is
covetousness. Well is this command
placed at the conclusion of the list. Who
ever would keep the spirit of Gods law
must guard his heart against covetous-
ness.

"Thou Shalt Not Steal

To steal is to take from another his

Making false returns to the tax assessor

form of theft which does more harm than

by Shakespeare words:
