Church and Home
BY REV. M. MIKKELSEN

Any attempt to use the church as
refuge where one may enjoy peace
and security of body and soul while
the world is burning with hate and
cruelty around us is certain to re-
suit in disappointment and disaster.
It will show us how extremely sell
fish we have been in using an in
stitution that was designed as a serv-
ice center imparting strength to the
soldier as he prepares to 60 into bat
tie and to which he may return as
often as needed for new strength and
inspiration.
A church. fellowship should after
all be the most unselfish and the
most self-sacrifcing group of people
we can think of. They should be
willing to pour hard-earned money
into the church building fund, and,
when the church has been completed,
say to others in such convincing
and unnistakable way that there is
at least no doubt about the sincerity
of it: This is for you as well, come
and make good use of it. We are
delighted to share it, in fact we are
constrained to share it, for thus
alone can we ever expect to get the
full value out of what we have put
into it. We must worship and find
strength for life's battle which is
ahead of us; SO also must you; and
we shall continue to give of our
money, we shall be happy to pro-
vide as well as we can, we shall be
ready to sacrifice, ready to give, give,
even life if it is required Of us.
Today millions of young men from
every part of our vast and beautiful
country, from the plains, the prairie,
the forest and mountain are train
ing for the grim task of war; boys
who otherwise under normal condi-
tons should have been busy train
ing for life's great and peaceful tasks
Many of these boys have already
completed the required training and
are now ready to 60 into actual COM
bat service. How rigid such train
ing must be and how much Of it is
considered an essential preliminary
to actual warfare we do not know
but we do know that before all this
is over there shall be all too many
who will not return again to "the
land of the free, and the home OF
the brave"
To know, when you prepare for
battle, and 60 into it, that you might
never return alive, that it is either
yours or the other fellows life that
is at stake, is probably the most
vexatious reality any one of us may
be requested to face, utterly void OF
meaning and purpose as it appears
to be.
The only thing that may give
meaning to it is faith in a Divine
Being, who is more powerful than
death, and who is able to handle the
present situation in such a way that
it must serve His purpose, and moth
ing, which has permanent value, is
ultimately lost. Out of such faith
is created in mans heart and mind
a determination to live not for self
but for others, that if you can not
live for them, you can at least die
for them, in order that they might
live.
When youth needs help and vision
to see the meaning and purposeful-
ness of sacrifice and self-giving, we
can at least encourage them to Lift
their eyes and, as in vision Of
glory and splendor, see One who
died for us all.

Clonhnlough Stone Is
Ireland's Oldest Monument

A suburb of the old town of Clon-
macnoise, Ireland, contains the most
ancient monument to be found in all
Of Ireland. 1t is the Cloninlough
stone, which is said to date back to
Neolithic times, or, in other words,
the Stone age. 1t is the pride of the
nearby townland of Clonfinlough,
with it's church, its school, it's post
office and its little general store,
observes a writer in the Boston
Herald.
Clonfinlough's agricultural area is
small, but grows yearly, the young
men finding pleasure in annihilating
that wicked weed of destruction, the
furze, and making it give place to
growths of value, notably potatoes,
which seem well-suited to the
ground here.
The markings of Clonfnlough
stone are said to record a fight to
a finish between the local cross-men
and the invading loop-men, says one
authority, with victory for the for
mer, and are similar to rock mark
ings to be found in Spain, proving
that there was intercourse between
the Spanish and Irish long before
the days when st. Patrick brought
the blessings of Christianity to Ire
land.

country and at different income levels
are meeting the rising cost of living
was made public here at the Annual
Conference on Consumer Problems,
sponsored by Consumers Union Of
United States.
"a majority of the questionnaires
were received from families having
incomes over $4,000 year and the
replies indicate that many of these
families are having serious financial
difficulties. But the returns from
families with incomes under this level
give striking evidence that large
section of the population is faced with
actual disaster from the rising tide of
imitation. Only 1870 of the families
now earning under $1,000 dollars a
year reported increased income since
the beginning of the war.
"ln order to meet the skyrocketing
prices of food and other necessities,
$50 of the families below $1,000 state
that they are borrowing, 1870 are
drawing on savings, $3.50 are saving
less than they did, $3.50 are buying
less, $50 are cutting down on amuse-
ments, trips, ETC., and 67a6 are buying
more carefully than they did former

Women Follow Men in Hunt

The women in the Kalahari desert
of the Bechuanaland protectorate,
often with babies on their backs,
follow the men on the hunt wherever
it leads them. And when the game
is killed, they all settle down to a
feast Of raw meat After a feast of
this kind, especially when the moon
is full, the Bushmen dance through
out the night. The women paint
their bodies and faces with blood in
barber-pole pattern, and the men
adorn themselves with jackals' tails
stuck in their hair, and rattles at
their ankles. They dance to the
moon, fertility and to the living
grass, and initiate the hyena and
the eland, mimicking the animals
feeding, fighting and gamboling. For
music they monotonously chant a
few weird notes and clap their
hands. Sometimes they strum sin
gle wire stretched from a peg in the
ground or strung ON bow.
