tIer proof that the presence Of q
wife in q fighters training camp
seems to be help to him rather
than a hindrance.
A man who ID married and
who IL devoted to his wife
wants her cOmpaniOnshfp. 10
means much 10 him more,
perhaps, than he realizes until
she Is not with him. When
they are parted because Of this
old Undiscovered rule about
'wives barred from camps it
harms more than helps the
fighter.
For he gets mighty lonesome al
times; something Is missing from
his 1ife-and it Il 4 vital some
thing. I don't think man can do
his best. no matter what Il ID. when
he's feeling lonesome or when he
wants the conapaMionship of his

With Job the Jews pass from the

Read the book again and see how

Ut was against the background Of
Il desolation that some nameless
but immortal Jew wrote the Book Of
Job. Picture a people that had be-
lieved itself favored and chosen
of Yahveh, now destitute and en-
shaved, every heart broken, every
home laid waste; was it possible to
hold this faith clear of doubt?
Or was II not inevitable that a
voice should arise asking in despair
whether this evil history could be
reconciled with this loving God?

the Bible is another man against

Of what use was it for people to
worship its god with passionate

the bitterest suffering?
OF what use to be honorable, to
be generous, to be loyal to wife and

COUGH IS YOUR

Persistent coughs and colds lead to
serious trouble. You can stop them now
with Creomulsion, an emulsified creo-
sote that is pleasant to take. Creomul-
sion is a new medical discovery with
two-fold action; 1t soothes and heals
the inflamed membranes and inhibits
germ growth.
OF all known drugs, creosote is rec
ognized by high medical authorities as
one of the greatest healing agencies for
persistent coughs and colds and other
forms of throat troubles. Creomulsion
contains, in addition to creosote, other
healing agencies which soothe and heal
the infected membranes and stop the
irritation and Inflammation, while the
creosote goes on to the stomach, is abb
sorbed into the blood, attacks the seat
Of the trouble and checks the growth
Of the germs.
Creomulsion Is guaranteed satisfac-
tory in the treatment of persistent
coughs and colds, bronchial asthma,
bronchitis and other forms of respira-
tory diseases, and is excellent for build
ing up the system after colds or flu.

But then hear the authentic ac-
cents of the deepest Doubt
Man that is born Of a woman is
of few days, and full Of trouble.
He cometh forth like flower,
and is cut down; he heeth also as
a shadow, and continueth not =.
For there is hope of tree, If it
be cut down, that it will sprout
again, and that the tender branch
thereof will not cease. Though
the root thereof wax old in the
earth, and the stock thereof die in
the ground; yet through the scent
of water it will bud, and bring
forth boughs like a plant.
But man dieth, and wasteth
away; yea, man giveth up the
ghost, and where is hep AS the
waters fall from the sea, and the
flood decayeth and dryeth up; SO
man dieth down and riseth not;
till the heavens be no more, they
shall not wake, nor be raised out
of their sleep. civ, 1-2)
And then, at the end, the mex
haustible faith of the Jewish people
reaSserts itself; and in g vision as
magnificent as anything in Michel
angelo, Job sees God not as the
maker and ruler Of man merely, but
as the order and law Of the planets
and the stars, the structure and
substance Gas Spinoza would say)
Of the universe.
Then the Lord answered Job
out of the whirlwind, and said,
Who is this that darkeneth coun-
sci by words without knowledge.
Grid up now thy loins like a
man; for I will demand Of thee,
and answer thou me. Where vast
thou when I laid the foundations
of the earth?
Declare, if thou hast under
standing. Who hath laid the
measures thereof, if thou knowest,
or who hath stretched the line
upon it when the morning
stars sang together, anu all the
sons Of God shouted for Joy.
Or who shut up the sea with
doors and said, Hitherto
shalt thou come, but no farther;
and here shall thy proud waves be
stayed?
Hast thou entered into the
springs of the sea? or hast thou
walked in the search of the
depth? Have the gates Of death
been opened unto thee? or hast
thou seen the doors of the shadow
of death?
Hast thou perceived the breadth
of the earth? Hast thou entered
into the treasures of the snow?
BY what way is the light parted,
which scattereth the east wind
upon the earth?
Who hath divided the water
course for the overlooking of
waters, or a way for the light
ming of thunder; to cause it to
rain on the earth where no man
is; on the wilderness wherein there
is no man; to satisfy the desolate
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1927-12-02

and waste ground. and to cause
the bud of the tender herb to
spring forth?
Hath the rain father? or who
hath begotten the drops Of dew?
Out of whose womb comes Nthe
ice and the hoary frost Of heaven,
who has gendered it?
The waters are hid as with a
stone, and the face of the deep is
frozen. Canst thou bind the sweet
influence Of the Pleiades, or loose
the bands of Orion?
In this majestic philosophic flight
the Hebrew poet sees the universe as
Whitman saw it in 'Salut au
Monde" he realizes it as a cosmic
whole, and in its light he sees each
part with a healing perspective and
modesty; we are made whole by
seeing whole. No wonder Carlyle
calls Job "a noble book, all mems
boOk"
It is our first, oldest statement OF
the never ending problem-man's
destiny, and Gods ways with him
here in this earth. And all in such
free flowing outlines; grand in it,
sincerity, in its simplicity, in its epic
melody, and repose of reconcile
ment. There is nothing writ
ten, I think, in the Bible or out OF
it, of equal literary merit"
n y .
NEVERTHELESS the problem
In was not answered. Even il
one parts evil is another parts
good, and both are subjective things
lost in the vastness of the whole
evil is real, and human suffering is
too pitiful to be done away with by
metaphysics.
When the Jews had felt for g
century the liberalizing touch Of
the Greek mind, and especially In
Alexandria had developed a culture
half Hebraic, half Hellenic, anc
learned to think independently OF
their traditions and their laws, the
scepticisn lurking in the Book Of
Job grew holder in its speech; ano
suddenly, amid the Bibles poetry
Of fervent faith, we come upon the
strange and subtle Book of Ecclesi-
astes, another treasure of our liter
airy heritage.
Here the pesSimism Of Job find:
unrestrained expression, Vanity Of
vanity, all is vanity. What profit
hath a man of all his labor which
he taketh under the sun? One
generation pasSeth away. and other
generation cometh; but the earth
abideth forever.
ALI things are full of labor; mar
can not utter it. The thing
that hath been is that which shall
be; and that which is one is that
which shall be done; and there is
no new thing under the sun.
For in much wisdom is much
grief, and he that increaseth know
ledge increaseth sorrow" Here is
Schopenhauer in nuce; a chapter
of Ecclesiastes thoroughly under

potion as all '"The World as VIII
