Text: ii Samuel 7:l7-29
BY. WM. T.. GILROY, ID. ID.

Out of the strangely varied
story OF David and the establish
ment of the kingdom of Israel,
with its primitive elements, its
aspects of border and tribal war
fare, and its conflicts Of jeal-
ousies and hatreds, comes the
passage in our lesson with IFS
high portrayal Of the place OF
religion in the life of a nation,
and its insistence upon the favor
of Providence and dependence
upon Providence as the neces-
sary foundation of national sta
bility and welfare.
Whence arose this conception
of Israel as chosen people. and
as a nation destined for great
ness and called to special serv-
ice? The conception evidently
was not shared by ALL for both
among the leaders and among
the people were many who lived
and acted with utter regardless
ness Of Gods will or guidance,
giving themselves over to idola-
trous practises and TO selfish and
materialistic ways. IT was the
prophets who proclaimtw M
conception Of holy people
chosen of God and fulfilling His
will But the people did not live
upon this high plane, and the
history of Israel was failure
downfall. and rejection. Except
cd was that holy remnant who
endured and survived the Baby
lonian captivity. giving to the
world the noble prophetic liter
ature on nat iona ! greatness
|. through devotion 10 truth and
righteousness. and through serv-
ice and sacrifice
This whole study OF religion
in the life of a nation might be
profitably made by comparison
Of our modern American situa
ton with that Of ancient Israel
Here, too. there are those who
think of our nation as chosen o.
God and subject to His guidance
They not only sing. but they
live in the spirit OF God Bles!
America, and they would like
TO make America a blessing tC
all nations. fulfilling in mod
ern way that ancient prophecy
"In thy seed shall all nations ot
the earth be blessed" For these
high-minded patriots democracy
is virtually a religion, a politi
cal expression of that holy atti
tude manifested by the Pilgrims
They think Of American democ
racy as holy thing, based on
and seeking the fulfllment OF
ideals of brotherhood, Justice
goodwill. and the promotion o.
the common good and welfare.
The hpe of America. and o.
the world, depends chiefly upor
these. and fortunately they con
stitute a large portion Of Amer
icas millions. But unfortunate
ly among Americas millions are
many who do not share such ar
ideal, or who give IL only liz
service. AS in ancient Israel we
have the self-seekers and idolat
ors, the worshippers OF the gold
en- calf, who set material inter
ests above the common good, anC

WASHINGTON Because ne
craWled into cave in China 10
shoot a tiger, over 40 years ago,
Joseph Clerk Grew, at "a, is to-
day the new Undersecretary in
the Department of State.
In 1902 young Joe Grew, scion
Of Boston banking family and
fresh out Of Harvard. was offer
ed as a graduation present the
usual trip TO Europe for a years
travel before settling down TO
business. With a few classmates.
however, Grew decided TO vary
the traditional sightseeing by
shooting his way around the
world.
AT the appointed time the gay
young blades assembled in Sing
apore and set about chartering
a little boat 10 cruise up the
Malay coast. then go into the
jungles on a tiger hunt. They
had some trouble with the ma
{ e skipper. who tried to hold
them up when he discovered
they we're rich young Ameri-
cans, bGt overcoming that, the
expedition went ahead and
Grew got his first big striped
C. /. He also got malaria.
CONSULAR VISITS
After his recovery. the party
set oHt for Burma for another
hunt, but there Crews malaria
returned and he had to 60 TO
a hospital While he was bed
ridden. Grew was visited almost
daily by an American consular
officer. One day the consul
brought him flowers and in his
high fever Grew threw the bou-
quet at his well-meaning visitor
and then regretted it. But
why, the invalid wanted to
know, should any American way
out IN Burma be so concerned
as 10 call on a perfect stranger
and bring him flowers?
The consul explained. He was
an officer of the United States
government and il was part Of
his duty TO look after Amcri-
cans who lnight be i'm that part
i-ef-ttc%worid whenever they
were in difficulty. Grew Was
interested.
When he got over his second
attack of malaria, Grew joined
the young hunters on a journey
I to the Chinese jtngics to bag
another tiger. The hunt includ-
cd the usual trappings. Chinese
hunters first tethered a goat on
the edge of clearing. That
night tiger came after the bait
and devoured it, Next night, an
other goat. Then the beaters
tracked the tiger to cave
where it would sleep off its
feast. Chinese guides summon
ed Grew to the cave and told
him TO 20 in and get it.
APPEAL FAILS
Young Grew got down on his
hands and knees, pushed his
gun ahead of him and craWled
into the opening The Chinese
had lit torches which were held
at other openings of the cave,
but they merely filled the place
with smoke and added to the
darkness. When Crews eyes be-
came accustomed TO the gloom
he looked about Inn. At one op-
ettihe ahead he saW-two bright
points Of light. Working his rifle
into position. he aimed between
the two bright spots and fired
Immediately y everything in
| cave went black. Not know
! ing for a minute whether the
1 ttiiger had jumped on him before
he had fired or just what had
happened, Grew finally decided
that he was unhurt and started
crawfishing out of the cave

| conclusion OF the shot had
blown out all the torch. lights,
leaving the cave in blackness.
New torches were lit and
Grew had 10 crawl back into the
cave a second time. There he
found the cat had been shot
right between the eyes. Backing
out, he sent the Chinese in to
drag out the carcass and skin it..
That was enough tiger hunt
ing. Grew came back TO Boston
TO advise his family that he was
going into the consular service.
That caused more CONSERVATION
than the tiger hunt. A son and
heir Of Boston banker go into
the lowly employ of the gov
ernment? Unthinkable.
But the young man persisted.
He learned OF a newly appointed
minister to Siam just ready 20
sail for Bangkok and persuaded
that dignltary TO take him on as
a secretary. When the Grew
family heard what had happen
ed they brought pressure on the
diplomat 70 capcel the appoint
ment, on the ground that young
Joe was just little hard OF
! hearing. and would be unfit for
the service.
Young Grew then tried appeal
/ to the President - Theodore
! Roosevelt, who was also a Har-
ward man-for a direct appoint
ment 10 the consular service. All
such jobs in those days were po-
litlcal plumS. There was no u.
s. Foreign Service with COM
! petltiVe entrance examinations
and promotions for merit within
the service. I. r. wrote back
that he was sorry, but pressure
from CongrcSSmen TO have their
constituents appointed To these
soft jobs kept him without any
vacancies 10 which he might APP
point men of his own choice.
CLERK IN CAIRO
Undaunted, Grew went 10 Ca
iro and there got himself a job
as clerk al 5000 a year. index
ing and copying records that
were years out OF date in the
files of the American consulate
AS spare time occupation nc
started to write a book, "Spor,
and Travel in the Far East,
which recounted his experience
at tiger hunting.
When the manuscript was
finished, it was sent TO Wash
ington acquaintance of the
Grew family, with a request foI
advice and help on finding a
publisher. The friend read the
manuscript, and on walk with
the President one day, told r. r
about the young hunter author S
experiences.
Interested, the President asked
TO see the copy, read 1t all
through and then said that the
United States needed youn., men
of that sort in its consular serv-
ice. He offered Joe Grew an ap-
pointment as deputy consuEgen'
eral in Cairo.
That was in November, 1904
Less than two years later he was
a third secretary in the embassy
at Mexico City and he went or
from there, with appointments
in ST. Petersburg, Berlin, ano
Vienna as Minister TO the Yer

Our City Fairgrounds

It is a grave responsibility borne by the supervisors of our local summer time playgrounds as the latter officially open today In these troubled and burdened times the responsibility must be grasped in fullest measure by those so charged.
 These playgrounds, as is self-evident, are intended as the means of affording, for Waterbury's children, the facilities for dissipating the natural high-spirited drives of youth which when left undi- rected and abandoned lead so many into the pitfalls of juvenile delinquency as we know that problem today.
 Thus great share of the responsibility of these supervisors is to make certain that those facilities are used to the full lest extent in their true purpose, so that these youths will gain every advantage being offered by the city through its Park Department.
 We feel certain that these supervisors are cognizant of their duties and will, as in past years, attain the goals set-up for them by society. Our youth of the na- tion is the nations reserve wealth. We must make certain it is expended wisely and well

the Roman Catholic Cardinal, also the Archbishop of Dublin, as we'll as the Pro- testant primate of Armagh, and also the Protestant Archbishop of Dublin.
 Colorful uniforms, the Lord Mayor in scarlet, and the mellow background of St. Patrick's Hall in Dublin Castle, made the event striking affair.
 MT. O'Kelley succeeds Douglas Hyde and is said to be worthy successor The procedure was broadcast which also made the event extraordinary because seven years ago when Douglas Hyde was in- augurated nothing like this modern pro- cedure took place. In Ireland as in Eng land colorful background and detailed ceremony following out old time customs always prevail, but in Ireland the pace is slower than in this country and the peo- pie take things as they come though with an inherent composure.
 Many visiting American soldiers were interested spectators during the cere- monies and celebrations of the day.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-06-27
N. A. A. C. P.

Indicative of the formative growth and development of the Waterbury chapter of the National Association for the Ad- vancement of the Colored People is the announcement that the local chapter now has over 500 members Such an ample constituency must be matter of rightful pride to the chapter and to the colored people of Waterbury.
 The NAACP has aptly proven it's in- trinSic worth as an association promised upon the principles of true democracy, and measures up in it's purposes and in- tents as valuable asset to America and the individual communities where it's chapters are in existence.
 No-one better understands the basic causes behind the problems of the Negro people than these people themselves. Their functionings within this organiza- tion are directed, in great part, to an equitable sensible solution to this unfor- tunate and unhappy problem. It has been readily admitted by all intelligent people that the solution to the prob lem is progressive and intelligent educa- ton designed to uproot prejudice and ig- norance. It is the duty of all of us.
