WISDOM
OF THE
TAIN D
Isaiah's Prophecy
BY MORRIS KRAMER

"And He shall judge between the
nations,
And shall decide for many peoples;
And they shall beat their swords
into plOwshares,
And their spears into pruning
hooks;
Nation hall not lift up sword
against nation,
Neither shall they learn war any
more"
- Isaiah.
When human beings have suf-
fered greatly, when sorrow and
desolation have sufficiently proved
to them the futility and the stu
pidity Of war as the means or the
end for success and power; when,
if fortunate to be alive, they are
not MANNED in battle, made insane
by horror, weakened by hunger,
deprived of their wealth and prop
erty, compelled to flee from their
country and their homes; when
they truly realize the staggering
loss to civilization, if not the COM
plete destruction of everything
that was considered worthwhile in
life-perhaps then they will truly
turn to peace, seek it as the only
haven for happiness, the only solid
factor that makes life worthwhile.
"GOd shall judge between the
nations and shall decide for many
peoples" For when human beings
will turn to God for consolation
and relief, not in a temporary
sense when mOmentary trouble Ov-
ertakeS them, but in a real sense
when they understand that only
God, through His moral law, with
His code of peace, truth, justice
and righteousness, can save them
from perditiOn.
Then they will scrap their war
machinery = their machine guns,
tanks, rifles, poisonous gases,
bombs and all the devilish instru-
ments of destruction, and go back
to the farm or to industry and re-
build their life in calm, tranquil,
peaceful pursuits.
Just as individuals will realize
the folly and insanity of war as a
cure for their difficulties and
problems, so will nations realize
that their power politics and de-
ceptive diplomacy cannot settle
any of the matters for which they
build their war munitions and send
millions of fine, able-bOdied men to
their death as well as cause the
destruction of innocent civilians.
When the love of peace will be
uppermost in human hearts there
will be no necessity for great
standing armies which have to be
maintained and supported by the
people at large.
The hope of Isaiah's prophecy
is still i'm the future. The world
advances slowly; human beings do
not see the radiant light of a
glorious peace until they first suf-
fer in body and mind and until
their loved ones die, until they are
no longer susceptible to perniciOus
propaganda and terrible, destruc-
tive hatred until they can Danish
their silly arrogance and false
pride, until, in general, they can
root out those evil impulses that
control their deeds and actions
and genuinely appreciate the beau
ty of equality, freedom and JUS
tice for all mankind.
IF they will love their neighbors,
they will not injure or mistreat
them; they will not use them as
pawns for their own advancement
in life, and, by turning their
thoughts to God and conforming
to His great moral code of truth,
justice and Righteousness, they
will usher in the millennium which
Isaiah predicted and for which
the worlds idealists have been

Beavers Not Satisfied
With Engineers Plans

The engineering work at the dam
on Flower creek appears to be de-
fective and needs correction. At
least that seems to be the judgment
of number of beavers that have
made their appearance on the
stream. The company engineers
who planned the dam and diversion
works at the reservoir provided for
the laying down of large pipe to
conduct the water where they want
ed it. That arrangement doesn't
satisfy the beavers, says Manager +.
J. Driear, and they have proceeded
without asking anyone's consent to
make what changes they desire.
They have repeatedly damned up
the pipe and diverted the water
down the road. All of which causes

PoyrolI Largest In
More Than 10 Yeors

A report from the J. Neils Lum-
Der company office tells that the
payroll for the period ending Au-
gust 10 was $4,000 larger than an
ordinary payroll. This surprising
fact is the result of the additional
salaries paid to the Al grain door
makers and extra money paid to
company employees who fought
forest fires last month.
1t is believed this is the largest
payroll in more than 10 years. The
average payroll amounts to $4,000
every two weeks.
The local bank did not anticipate
the extra large payroll and did not
bring any more currency than usual.
An hour or SO after the doors were
opened they found themselves ex-
ceedingly low on both currency and
silver. The Kootenai Valley State
Bank Of Troy was called upon as
were all of the merchants of Libby
and especially the Mountain States
Power company.
The money might be classed as
revolving funds for some person
would cash check at the bank, take
the money to store, pay a bill
and member of the bank staff
would follow pretty soon to pick up
the currency, take it back to the
bank and cash some one else's
check
Everything worked out in fine
shape, however, and although some
folks had to wait few minutes for
their money it was not long in get
ting into their hands.

Under the direction of Bob Coo

state fish and game department has
begun its annual task of hauling
salt into the forests for deer, elk,
moose, mountain sheep and noun
tain goats. The salt is distributed
SO the animals will be scattered
throughout game ranges rather than
be concentrated about a few de-
posts. The salt also is placed on
high ridges away from watering
places so the game will have to
Craze summer ranges until the taste
and need for salt decreases with. the
coming Of winter. Keeping the
game spread out also tends to check
the possibility for the spread OF
disease.
