PRAY FOR VISION
by Ruth Taylor

Where there is no vision, the
people perish"
In this hour of trial and tribula-
tons, when a deadly, devastating
war has been unleashed upon US,
and the storms of conflicting ru-
mors are stirring up intense anx-
leties, let us pray for vision to
see.
First, let us pray for vision Il
see with clarity what lies befors
US in the coming months, to fac
the reality of things, uncolored BY
any shade Of personal bias, who
her it be the rose color of undu
optimism, the deep green of pess
lmism, the flaming red Of anger
The vivid yellow of pride or tM
gray of indifference. Pray for via
on to see clearly things as they
'eally are here and now.
Second, let us pray for vision Il
see with discernment; to look be
neath the surface; to weigh everS
statement, considering well its
5lrce and it's possible effect, Il
Judge carefully and with maturec
yisdom; hot to be taken in by am
ave Of carefully stimulated mo-
Jpinion, nor by any of the viii
umors so carefully set afloat by
abversive elements, and so Wen
.,alculated to upset the morale ano
minds of our sincere, God-fearing
people. Pray for vision to see
through mists that veil the truth.
Third let is pray for vision to

AS WE
KNEW HIM
Let your light so shine before
men, that they may see your
good works and gIorify your
Father which is in Heaven.
Matthew 5:16.

REV. F. P. JONES', pastor of
Mt. Moriah Baptist Church, Oma-
ha, Nebraska, has ended his tenth
year as Pastor of this church and
h~as>left, much to our regret to
take a charge elsewhere. He de-
livered his farewell sermon to a
saddned congregation, Sunday;
Dec. IA. He came to us during
the depression years when as a
Church we had but little to offer.
He came to us when we we're
in extreme need of a leader and
became one of us. Living among
us as a true disciple of Jesus tea
ching and preaching, leading in all
that he wanted us to do. He be-
lieved firmly in Bible living and
Bible giving. He and his loyal
companion came to us with beau
tiful records, there was naught
clinging to the skirts of their gar
ments and today that record is
still %unspotted.
He was not afraid to preach
pure gospel and then he believed
what he preached and lived it.
These ten years have not al
ways been sunshine and roses for
him, but yet he struggled on be-
cause he loved the church and
was loyal to it. Many times he
didn't. get all of his salary and
many times when money was so
scarce and bills were starring us
in the face that he would say
"Just let me go this time and pay
your bills"
We are proud of the fact that
through his untiring efforts that
the mortgage which had been on
the church property was burned
last year. This mortgage had
been hanging over u heads for
thirteen long years, but he was
not afraid to tackle the job and to
day we are free of debt.
He preached the tithing system
which is the Bible way of giving
until many of the members are
now regular tithers. In this he
and Mrs. Jones headed the list.
They also brought to the church
a beautiful service which is known
as the "White Gift" and was OBJ
served every year at Christmas
time.
For three and one half years he
was Moderator of Nebraska State
New Era Baptist Association.
They have given of their best to
Mt. Moriah Church. They have
given of their substance and their
sincere service. We loved him as
a pastor because he was well pre-
pared to lead us. He has buried
our dead, joined our sons and our
daughters in holy wedlock., adj
ministered to the sick. Helped
those who needed help in times
of trouble. Gave sympathy, adj
vice and encouragement when
needed. Baptized many in Jesus

therly, a true shepherd of the
flock.
Likewise Mrs. Jones has labor
ed among US, working in the Sun
day school, the BTU, the Mission
Circle and other departments. She
was also active in the state work.
Their lives in the church, the
community and the city stand out
as beacon lights, shining and
pointing humanity to the fact that
there is a reality in right and
righteousness. The church, the
Community and city are proud to
have had such an one in their
midst.
He has departed from us leav-
ing footsteps in the sands of Mt
Moriah's time, that will long stand
out. He has left landmarks that
we can point to with pride. In
| our hearts and minds he has left
memories that time will not erase,
He goes not because we want him
to, for his resignation has not been
accepted by the church. He leav-
Is in perfect peace and harmony
| with the church and the doors OF
Mt Moriah stand ajar for him al
ways.
We not only lose a pastor bat
a loyal friend as well, to whom we
are greatly indebted. God has
seen fit to call him to labor in an
other vineyard, so we bid he an6
his companion God speed and wish
them success wherever they may

Church and Home
By REV. M. MIKKELSEN

Jeppe Aakj9r was a Dane-every
fibre in his body, 1 am sure, and
every feeling in his heart of which
it is possible to give expression, one
way or another, such as poet may
be inspired to do it, is so deeply and
genuinely Danish, and so closely
pulsating with the life and the spirit
of the peasantry of his homeland,
even with the soil of the land, that
positively no one who is not out
of that soil and not in tune with it
can fathom the deep out of which
Aakj9r draws his refreshing water.
1t is for that reasan that his literary
work to many even of his own coun-
try-men is quite unintelligible and
unapproachable.
Attempts have been made to trans
late Aakj9r into other languages,
especially of his poetry, and evidently
with some success, although it ap-
pears that only the truly skilled can
do justice to highly specialized
work of this type. Yet, it can safely
be said that the transition of the
spirit, which is clearly discernible in
his work and, in order to give the
translation deeper literary value,
should accompany also any transfor-
nation, has so far escaped the skill
of his translators. 1t is evidently
beyond the ability of humans to per-
form, because the reader of the trans
formed product, in order to feel the
genuine touch of the message and ac-
cept it as truly of his own spirit,
must possess such an unusual amount
of literary assimilative ability that it
simply would be unreasonable to ex-
pect any one without certain heart
beat and trickle of the very blood
that flows through and gives life to
the poem we enjoy and the song
we sing.
The translation of the songs of the
home land is as yet primarily in
tended as gift to the children of
the immigrants; as such they have
inestimable value, and some day un-
doubtedly the two spirits, the spirit
of that which is old but firmly rooted
in the life and daily toll of our fore
fathers, and that of the new which
is struggling to be born, may meet in
an entirely new song, new poetry,
deeply in contact with the folk-spirit
of the new era, yet, born out of the
old which can never die, and only
then, at least in this and other coun-
tries outside of Denmark, shall it be
possible fully to comprehend and
evaluate Aakjar's supernatural folk
lore.
Now that we have the new song
book in which several of Aakjar's
songs appear in translation, it is de-
sirable that we should make an effort
to acquaint ourselves with this new
song-gift.
A translation is never the same
as the original. 1t is apparently more
new than it is old, for obvious rea-
sons. The old has escaped, as il
seems, perhaps by trick of the gods
the translator's genius. And thus
by sheer incident, given us product
which is not better in quality, but
better suited to fill our particular
need.
