This is the general opinion today,
following the return this morning
of T. Reginald Pritchard from
Miami, and j. Vining Harris, at
torney, attorney for the Demo-
cratic Committee. Neither Mr..
Pritchard, Judge Harris nor 9TH
er members of the committee,
will commit themselves as to
what this body will do, but from
what they do say it is practically
certain no further effort will be
made to keep Mr. Kirchheiner
out of the primary. Mr. Pritch-
ard was served at / o'clock this
afternoon with a mandatory court
order to accept Mr.. Kirchheiner's
entrance fee and accept receipt
therefor. Il do not know what
the pleasure of the committee will
be in the matter, said Mr. Pritch-
ard, but personally l am inclin-
ed to feel we have done all in our
power to carry out the intent of
the law. We have been over
ruled by an authority higher than
ours and it seems that about the
only honorable course left for us
is to obey the law. Judge Har-

The story Of the meeting between
Jesus and the woman Of Samaria
at Jacobs well, as told In the Cos
pei Of John, Is very fittingly linked
with Old Testament passages. When
Jesus expounded TO this woman the
nature OF God and the nature Of

words, God Is q spirit; and they

Ing something new, but was inter-

The process of the development
Of the worship of God as the Low
Ing Father Of all mankind Is one
that Is going on today.
There are individuals and peoples
that are away back In the tribal
stage, for whom God Is linked with
sectional and national interests and
prosperity. But there Is an in
creasing number Of men and wo-
men who see that God Is the God
Of the whole earth and the God
Of all peoples, and that His chosen
are not those Of particular race
or region, but the devout souls who
devote themselves to- doing Justice,
loving mercy, and walking humbly
before God. There God reveals
Himself, and there Is found the true
worship In spirit and In truth.

One thing that stands out strong
" and Enthusiastically In the history
of the Children of Israel Is the In
sistence upon the evil nature OF
idolatry. The moral degradation Of
the people and much Of the misfor-
tune that came upon them Is almost
invariably attributed to the turning
from the worship Of Jehovah to the
worship of false gods.
Why should this be? What Is the
difference between the worship Of
an idol and the use OF q symbol III
worship? In Christian churches,
there are many images.
The difference Is that symbol
stands for something very real;
when the symbol itself becomes an
object Of worship instead Of q SYM
Dol, the resulting worship Is idola-
airy.
But It was not this alone that was
In the mind of the Hebrew leaders
and prophets, who so strongly de-
nounced the worship Of idols. Deep
er down was the fact that idolat-
rous worship was associated with
Immoral and corrupt practices. The
opposition to idolatry was social as
well as religious. The leaders OF
Israel did not wish to see the people
corrupted by materialism and false
ideals.
There are those who make much
of the fact that the religion OF Is
rael was centered around the wor-
ship Of O tribal God. !.
That may have some aspects OF
truth, but the real significance OF
the Old Testament lies In the extent
to which It Is not true. The I'M
portant thing to grasp Is that, IN
the worship Of the true prophets
and saints Of Israel, there was al
ways something emphasized, and
emerging, larger than the worship
Of O tribal God. Almost from the
beginning, there Is the emphasis
upon the one God.
In the early pages OF tns Ciu
Testament, we have the conception,
of this one God as personal. MAJ,
Is made In His image and likeness.
and Is therefore linked inevitably
with his Creator.
There, right OF the threshold OF
religious faith and experience, Is
something on q far higher plane
than idolatry, or even the worship
Of a tribal god. The promise 70
Abraham Is, '.In thy seed shall ell
the nations Of the earth be blessed"
There Is something larger than tri-
bal vision. GE sH

prophecies and the Book Of Jonah,
