As. 46s 20:9-l6

The apparent utter disregard of
the rights of others, both as to
person and property, is the basis
for most of the criminality in the
world today. There is a dire need
for the teaching OF and accept
arce of the right of ownership.
From earliest childhood, individ-
uals should be taught to respect
the property of another.
Some years ago, a well known
economist, after much study, esti-
mated that stealing = through
fraud, burglary, robbery, and
thefts-cost the people of this
country more than two and half
billion dollars each year. This
staggering sum could sbef materi-
ally reduced if our people would
put into practice this Eighth Com
mandment, '"Thou shalt not
steal". Ill
DR., G. S. Dobbins. says, There
are. many reasons why there must
be a law against stealing. The
two kinds of crime that have af-
flicted humanity most universally
throughout the ages have been
crimes against the person of 9TH
ers and crimes against property.
Unless these two types of GRIM
inality are dealt with vigorously
and successfully, there can be no
secure social order.
in a stable civilization, the
sacredness of human life comes
first, and then must be guaran-
teed the sacredness of property
rights. If, without fear of pun
ishment, men were allowed to
take the property of others by
theft or by force, there could be
no orderly government or indus
try. Theft degrades the thief.
and so brings on degeneration of
personality. Theft wrongs the
one from whom the property is
stolen, since it takes from him
the fruits of his labor. Theft is
an offense against God; hence it
is in defiance of his moral law
and is in contempt of his holy
nature. A world made UP Of
thieves would be an impossible
world for human beings to live
in.
Selfishness, for the most part,
is the basic cause for stealing.
The desire to possess something
which belongs to another, the de-
sire to get something without ex-
pending the necessary effort in
time and physical energy, causes
some to sink to the level of TAX
ing that certain thing, either by
stealth, at the point of a gun or
through fraudulent manipulations.
There are other forms of dis
honesty, however, which are not
outright dishonesty-the pretense
of being something when down
in your heart you know you are
not sincere. Jesus condemned
this form of dishonesty most Sc
verely. Honesty lives in ones
soul and should be practiced in
our everyday living.
Jesus dealing with Zaccheus IL
illustrates how he dealt with q
dishonest man. Instead of con-
1eming one whom everyone
knew to be crooked, he had Eel.

and desirability of a pure and

he was conscious The genuine
ness of his conversion is attested
by the fact that he iTnnediatel,

Jacqueline, you've locked your door! What on earth is the mat ter, child? Open it - it's mother, darling."
 Please, Mother I have a headache Jackie mumbled from ;,,c bed where she had thrown herself. face down, full length, finding that she was almost physi- cally exhausted. She was glad she had thought to turn the key in the lock. Let Evelyn rattle 1t as much as she wished, Jackie would not admit anyone.
 "A headache dear me! I'll get you something :"
 q don't want anything! Just let me alone" Thank heaven, her mother apparently had not heard about Roger yet. She would not know what had happened until she read the regular evening edi- ton of the paper.
 But, darling, you must let me do somthing for you!"
 Please, Mother!" Jackie threw all the pleading of which she was capable into her voice. If you'll just go away and let me alone .'
 She heard Evelyn murmul something that sounded like C. .. dear me I can't under stand "a and then her footsteps resounding down the hall.
 Jackie lay still as long as she could. Then she got up and crept down the stairs once more. Sht knew Evelyn would be dressing fol dinner now. Jackie could get tht evening paper before anyone els' saw it. Back in her room, the dool securely bolted once more, she pull ed the sheets apart with feverisf fingers. There was the same tele' photo of Roger and Beryl beside thu silver plane-it gave Jackie's hear the same piteous wrench. This edi' tion had been printed several hour: later but it held no new news, nol much more hope. The search wa! still going on but so far not a single trace had been discovered of th' ship or of it's pilot.

1 Jackie felt she could not endure this waiting much longer; it was this uncertainty that was SO un- bearable. It would be easier to know that Roger had cracked up, that there was no hope at all, than to have to go on not knowing what had happened, what to ex- pect.
 She would not wait any longer for Mac to call. She would phone him. If she could not reach him, she would get in her car and drive back out to the field.
 When she gave her name the operator at the field, who knew her, cried hurriedly aside, Its Miss Dim I can't talk to her You1l have to tell her, Mac ." And then, after an eternity Macs voice came over the wire.
 Hello is that you, Jackie?"
 "Oh, Mac had to call you!" What had the operator meant? Have you heard anything? Isn't there anything new?"
 "Yes was just going to call you, Jackie" Macs voice sounded gruff, unnatural. He had heard something then!
 They found the ship" Mac was saying, still in that same odd voice. Near KylertoWn. Pretty badly cracked up - one wing torn off, motor smashed in :"
 But Roger 2" She had to know, to get it over with, what ever the news.
 They found the ship, all right" <" Mac said again. But they haven't found Roger, Jackie"

 So from Prague issue new orders to strengthen Czechoslo- vakia's border Notifications, par ticularly along the vulnerable Ger man and Silesian sides; to create new tank regiments; increase the number of first-line planes from $50 to 2000. The Czech army, small, is nevertheless perhaps the best-armed force of it's size in the world, strong in heavy artillery. anti-aircraft equipment. machine guns and tanks.
 Prague does not expect the army could long repel German invasion but it could protect the beautiful little country until help arrived providing it did arrive. Czecho- slovakia possesses an intense na- tionalism, is strongly spiritual,

FATHER IS HELD

Arlington Man Pleads Guilty

Stolen Goods.

Curt Bonbrake, sr, 49, Of Arling-
ton Va, accused by police of forcing
