RADIANT LIVING
Outlasting Mans Creations
BY Rev. C.. NJ. Griffith
CeciltOn, Md

CeciltOn, Md.
One of the most enchanting vistas
which can delight the human eye is
10 be found in the island Of Sicily,
at the age-old city of Taormina.
In this ancient city whose history
reaches back beyond $50 B. C. are to
be found the ruins of what was once
a most imposing Greek theatre. All
that is left of this architectural giant
today however is thick crumbling
wall Of reddish brick containing two
archways. Before this wall stands
row of broken marble columns, sug-
gestive of the grandeur which once
the building possessed.
But standing here in the midst of
these noble ruins and looking thru
the gaping breach in the crumbling
wall, one beholds a scene of marve-
lous beauty.
Beyond the ruins stretch away on
the left the green blue waters Of the
Alcantra Bay, trimmed around by a
long encircling arm of land that
reaches out to sea in the far dis
lance, while on the right the eye is
captivated by the green and brown
valley of Alcantra which slopes up
and up and up until it reaches its
climax in the dramatic Mt. Etna, COW
cred with virgin snow, blushing GRIM
son in the rays Of the setting sun
We today see the same enchant-
ing scene as did the Greeks in the
far off days of Aeschylus. The great
theatre, the achievement of man now
lies a mass of ruins, while the sea
and the mountain, the creations Of
God remain in all their grandeur and
colorful glory.
Let me not therefore limit my Wis.
ion, my interests, my life to the
achievements of man, imposing as
they may be; but let us seek rather
the creations of God which through
the wear and tear of the ages lose
nothing of their beauty, their charm
and their value.
Heaven and earth shall pass a.
way, but my words shall never pass
away" declared the Eternal One.
To such words, let my soul become
eternally united!

The large assortment of dishes
from which to choose our Sunday
night supper often leaves us more
confused than if we had but few
We usually start with waffles or an
omelet and go down the line includ-
ing chill con carni and creamed chip
ped beef on toast and somewhere a.
long the line we do naturally include
Crabmeat Newburg, that old favor
tie and here, so many times we stop
Those who know how to prepare this
dish, know what treat it can be,
and those who don't know will find
this recipe much to their liking:
CRABMEAT A LA NEWBURG
IA cup butter
3 tablespoons flour
cup milk
liz cup cream
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
IA teaspoon dry mustard
Salt
White pepper
Paprika
cup crab meat, flaked.

Woman, Bent On Suicide,
Leaves Hotel Ledge To
Answer Telephone Call

Ready to leap from a sixteen-story
ledge Of a downtown hotel, Dallas
woman recently exercised the right to
change her mind and hustled into her
room to answer, of all things, tele-
phone call.
Police and hotel officials had been
pleading with the woman not to jump.
When their efforts failed, the manager
in desperation stepped to a telephone
and rang her number. The mystery
Of "Who's calling?" proved too much
for the woman who stepped back int
the room, where a detective grabbed
her.

Take medicine prescribed by Doc.
tors only. I warn you against
taking root medicine. A change
will take place if you cooperate
with a good medical doctor or the
clinic.
c. G.-Please tell me if I will
ge able TO get the Children | am
trying to get?
Ans:-I e disappointment a.
head for you regarding these chill
dren? In all probability your fl
nancial standing has something to
do with it.
4*@&&%
l.. C.-Please tell me if | stand
a chance with either one of the 2
boys l have been going with? Both
claim they love me?
Ans: The fellow you nave been
going with for the longest period
of time loves you more devotedly
than the one you started with re-
Gently. He would marry you
but | don't think the latter fellow
would consider marriage at all.
ss##&*
E. J.. W.-Do you think my
daughter will make good at the
school that | am planning to send
her to?
Ans: l do. 1t seems to me-
that you are using the very best
of judgement in sending her off
to school. She's ambitious and
studious-you may expect nothing
but the best from this young lady.
**#**
I l.. Writings got so bad that
| had to leave home. Is it the end
of everything for me? What must
| do?
Ans: Go back home and stay
there. Your husband has become
infatuated with someone else, but
you ire foolish to step out and
give him a free road to travel. Try
to hold your home together and
work and take care of yourself.
A change will take place in him
before fall.
The Omaha guide., 1940-08-24

) Ans: Make arrangements to
buy a home as soon as you can.
There is no better investment for
people of moderate circumstances.
l am sure that if you look around
you will find a place nicer, and
more modern for the money. Don't
be afraid to get out and make
some inquiries-get the best you
can for the money you put out.
**&***
Lonesome Pal.-Do my friend
get all the letters that l write him?
| wonder now long he will be gone
and will I hear from him ever?
Ans: You're a "has BEEN in his
mind young lady. I suggest that
you stop writing him. If he did
not get the letters they would be
returned to you. 1t is very evid-
ent that he has made some new
acquaintance and he doesn't care
to keep in touch with you any
longer.
**##k*
S. K. P.-I want to go on my
vacation but am afraid | will lose
out. Tell me if there is a chance
of my getting 3 or A rooms in the
project?
Ans: Yes you do stand a good
chance of getting an apartment in
this new project. Go ahead and
take your vacation-you might go
around and tell the office that you
are going and when to expect you
back. You need to get off for a
few days.
M. F. WI know | am sick all
right for I have a large swollen
stomach. Now they tell me when
you have been cungered and trick
ed that Doctors medicine will make
it worse. Tell me what to do.
Ans: If you want to get well
and live then you had better
change your views a bit. Pay no
attention to what people have to
tell you. Go Immediately to the
City Clinic and begin reatment.
