Capt. Gillrler'
ALONG ELM STREET

Recently l was reading a
church discipline and | saw its
objection to preachers going to
a circus There is objection to
baseball too, and many people
consider it and the circus the
Devils Work" Somewhere a
prophet prayed. open h e
young mans eyes"
Let's take the circus for dis
cussion frst: The Bible says,
frain upHa child iir tile Why II
should go, and when it is grown
it will not depart from it," In a
circus | saw a woman bring to
the ring in the circus a large
cage of white doves. She reIeas-
ed them adj they flew to the top
Of the circus tent and exercised
themselves for a time, free to
fly where they wanted to in the
circus tent. When the lady train
err was ready for her large bird
family to return to their cage,
she fired a pistol and all the
birds flew back to their cage
from the top Of the circus tent.
How many families these days
can tell their children the hour
they should return home and
they would obey as promptly
as the birds did in the circus?
AID wasn't it a great lesson
At a baseball game a player
is on third base. He can't get to
home plate in victory except by
error on the opposite side or the
man at bat knocks the ball far
enough away. When the batter
goes to bat for his team mate,
their IS the obligation before
him: Bear We one another's
burdens" And he hts the ball
to deep center field, and when
the fielder catches it, it is then
tho burden Of the man on thir I
base to out run the speed of the
thrown ball to homeplAo.
Let's get this revelation in
baseball: We must help people
who cannot help thmesolvcs. and
make a sacrifice to do it. At the
same time, the one who is help
ed must do his best. as the run
ner did from third base running
home. q.

about thirty minutes each way.
My first impulse on Monday
morning as I approach the street
ear was to buy a morning paper
and read on my way to the Office.
At best that is not a very salts
factory way for much of the
time we have to be holding on

Before buying the paper the
thought flashed through my
mind - why not think while on
my way to and from my office :?
So / have been doing that very
thing, and a weeks experience
has been very gratifying. To me
thinking is a most interesting
and challenging experience. The

crowded and We were jammed
in like sardines n a box. l held

In a sense ittis fortunate that
the die is cast. Is the religious
and Christian fabric based upon
the biological basis of flesh and
blood or upon the social intellect
ual moral and spiritual unity of
mankind These two principles
are apposable in themselves as
right and wrong in ethics or up
and down in physics. Christian
ity and Democracy must meet
the challenge either with the
weapons of .carnal warfare or
the defensive armor of truth and
righteousness with which to
withstand the frey darts of
Satanic defiance. While these
partners in distress may be
forced to bear the strings and
arrows of outrageous fortunes
for a while, yet they may sustain
themselves with the consolation,
blessed are they who are perse-
cuted for righteousness sake for
great is their reward" Our reli-
gious and political dispensation
is based upon the eternal prin-
ciples. Christianity m
triumph over irreligion and
Democracy over Dictatorship.

be right. The stars in their
forces are in allienment. Millions

KELLY MILLER SAYS:
The Negro and the Jew,
Partners i'm Distress

The Negro and the Jew consti-
tute the only racial minorities
that are prosecuted by Christ
an nations on account of race.
We once regarded the persecu-
ton of the Armenian as a piece
|of ViIlians of which 0nfV the nn=.
speakabie Turk was capable.
When Chief Justice Tanney
suggested that at the time of
the establishment of the Ameri-
can Constitution, the Negro had
no rights which a white man was
bound to respect. The dogma
shocked the conscience of the
nation and was repudiated at the
point of the sword as being re-
pugant to the principles of
Christiasity and the ideals of
Democracy. No one dared dream
that seventy years later the
head of Christian nation would
proclaim by action which speaks
louder than words that the Jew
from whom our Christian dis
pensation was derived had no
rights that the German is
bound to respect. This partner
ship in distress inevitably bring
about fellow feeling between
these two prosecuted races. The
Negro is prosecuted because of
his alleged ineptness for civil
zated way, while the Jew is per-
secuted because he matches
and masters his prosecutors in
various features of civilization.
by virtue of enforced partner
ship, the Jew will become the
natural leader of the backward
Negro in commerce and bust
ness, while the latter will
furnish a complacent consti-
tueny for business and trade.
The Negro is in a large measure
the beneficiary of Hebrew per-
secution. The vial of wrath
which was poured out on the
head of the Negro alone, is now
spread out so as to cover the
Jew as we'll. Extension over the
larger area lessons intensity at
any one point. A decade ago we
saw the debacIe of the Ku Klux
lKlan based upon racial arrogance
fbecause it took in too much terri
tory by including the Jew and
the alien as well as the Negro.
1.-THE Aryan myth invented by
Hitler is but the teutonic equi-
valent of white supremacy" of
which we hear so much about in
the United States. 1t is interest
ing to note that Hitler bases his
Reich upon congenftal bonds of
blood relationship, rather than
upon the congeniaBties OF, moral
and spiritual kinship. II It is al.
