ouestIon-Do you believe in the YER
hal Inspiration Of the Bible?
AnsN EFF the words of the original
manuscripts were not inspired, what
Kas? The Bible is composed Of words.
Ia Hebrews 1927 the whole argument
turns on three words, ''yet once more;
% Galatians 4:9. on the passive rather
p'an the active voice of the verb; in
l3hn SIS, on the present instead Of
re past tense; in Galatians 1916 on
Lhe singular number of a noun, rather
ian the plural. Taking these four texts
lAgether, we find that to change a
phrase, the voice or tense of a verb.
tr che number of a noun would destroy
re teaching of the Scriptures. Isn't
his close to verbal inspiration?
Q.-Is there any hope for a real
sCunkard?
A.-There is hope for anybody who
E,ll really turn to God for help. Isaiah
'q:1, 2: Behold, the Lords hand is
a0t shortened, that it cannot save;
'cither His ear heavy, that it cannot
sear: but your iniquities have sep
rated between you and your God.
,1d youz Sins have hid His face from
'nu. that He will not hear" And l
John 1:9 is still in the Bible.
Q.-Where is Christ now?
A.-'LOoking unto Jesus the author
md flnisher of our faiths who for the
ny that was set before Him endured
ne cross, despising the shame, and is
IL down at the right hand Of the
hrone of God" Hebrews 1879.
Q.-Does the Bible say anything
lboWt someone's trying to change the
SINE?
A-The prophecy is in Daniel 7:25.
tAnd he shall speak great words
against the most High, and shall wear
pat the saints of the most High, and

Cruelty To ideas by Ruth Taylor

Have you ever been against an
idea just because you didn't like the
person who promulgated it? That
is cruelty to ideas, and l reckon there
have been times when you've been
as guilty of it as l have.
But remember, Don Marquis used
to say, an idea isn't responsible fol
the people who believe in it.
Did you ever try watching your own
prejudices for one day? I did once.
kept a list Of every instructive brist-
ing up and it was pretty Illuminating.
When I snalyzed my list, my opinion
of myself reached d new low.
Here are some of the things I found
out:-Prejudice against ideas is too
often pejudice against the people who
sponsor them. An idea may be so
good that even a bad man will accept
ito say nothing of the people who
just want to climb on the banwagon.
Make up your mind for yourself
study the situation, and draw your
own conclusion. What's the use of
being an sdult if you can't make your
own decisions,
Prejudice against individuals is too
often a mirror reflection-you see
in them some Mannerism, some
shading of expression, same tone Of
voice, some characteristic of someone
whom perhaps you have just cause
to dislike-and you group the two
together. You generalize-when
really your likes and dislil1es should
be based only on the individual.
Prejudice against the untried and
the different is too often defense
We fear the unknown.
We dislike it because we don't want
to admit our own ignorance. We
don't like to feel inferior to ovsselves
so we just say that what hasn't come
within our ken is no good.
The best cure for all prejudice is
knowledge-for the cause of all pre-
iudice is ignorance. We wouldn't ever
be cruel-even to ideas.

L. And all the people gathered them
selves together as one man into
the street that was before the water
gate; and they spake unto Ezra the
scribe to bring the book of the law
Of Moses, which the Lord had COM
manded to Israel.
2. And Ezra the priest brought
The law before the congregation both
Of men and women, and all that
could hear with understanding, upon
the first day Of the seventh month.
8. And he read therein before the
street that was before the water
gate from the morning until midday,
before the men and women, and
those who could understand; and the
ears Of all the people were attentive
unto the book of the law.
4, And Ezra the scribe stood upon
g pulpit of wood, which they had
made for the purpose. Neh. $3.50.
5. And Ezra opened the book in
the sight of all the people; (for he
was above all the people0 and when
he opened it, all the people stood up:
6 And Ezra blessed the Lord, the
great God And all the people an
swered Amen, with lifting up their
hands and they bowed their heads,
and worshiped the Lord with their
faces TO the ground. Neh. 8:8.
8. So they read in the book in the
law Of God distinctly, and gave the
sense, and caused them to understand
the reading.
II, And all the people went their
way to eat, and drink, and to send
portions, and to make great mirth,
because they hGd understood the
words that were declared unto them.

L. Now in the twenty and fourth

The Highway Meeting

This meeting of the Commerce Chambers
transportation committee with Wilmington Of
hcials and interested citizens on Wednesday
to frame program primarily directed toward
gaining highway from Wilmington to the
Piedmont and points west is of vital impor-
lance to the future development and prosperity
OF southeastern North Carolina.
At the same time, equal attention should be
given coastal highway, and if the state high
way commission has the entire state highway
needs in focus it will use its influence to back
Wilmington's claim to both.
Granted that the western section of North
Carolina is accessible from Wilmington by
paved road and that Highway No. II parallels
the coast nearer tidewater than No. l, but
neither route affords first class travel condi-
lions and especially is neither capable of bear
ing heavy truck traffic burden.
The need is for the most modern type of
highways. Wilmington will secure them only
T. its people put forth strenuous effort. The
Wednesday meeting, belated as it is, can i'm
plement the movement for them.

A MEDAL FOR DOC"

Il seems queer to call him druggist when
so few of his sales are drugs. He isn't, in fact,
a pharmacist at all, and the last prescription
filler he had was drafted two years ago. But
still he is the community druggist" and
those who don't know his name often call him
''Doc''
But what we started to say is that
our American communities could hardly get
along without him and his friendly kind He
has been in business at the same stand as long
as our children can remember. We depend
upon him for our Sunday dinner ice cream,
our magazines, box candy, shaving cream,
and pancake makeup He leans over patiently
behind the double-decker candy counter while
grinay little fingers point out "a cents worth
of these and cents worth of those He
used to have branch post office until the
help problem forced him to give it up. But
still he accommodates us with postage stamps,
takes the money for gas and electric bills, and
cashes allotment checks for the young wom-
on whose husbands used to run his errands.
He has our snapshots developed, and has even
been known to have tennis racket re-strung.
And he's an unfailing source of information
about anything and anybody in the neighoor-

A MOmentOus Birthday

The Senior Fraternity banquet at the Bri-
gade Boys Club armory, observing its twentieth
birthday, was notable not only for the large
attendance but for the Fraternity's gift of $500
to the Bruce B. Cameron Memorial Boys Camp
fund. few weeks before the organization had
done the heavy work in arranging ball game
at Legion Stadium from which $3.50 was gar
nered for the same fund. Thus within month,
the Senior Fraternity has contributed $3.50 to
he camp and by so doing enables the Brigade
b meet the major part of its camp debt,
Me cottages and other construction having cost
more than anticipated.
As the Kiwanis club had contributed Up
wards Of $1,000 among its own membership,
he Fraternity may well count itself the
vounger-brother-spon of this project through
which hundreds Of underpriveleged boys may
lnjoy an annual outing in the best camp in
these parts.
In its twenty years Of existence the Senior
Fraternity has matured into one of Whining
tons greatest potential assets. The boys on
he original roster of members have grown
. manhood, have established homes and
many occupy positions Of high responsibility
h the business cummunity.
For years they have participated in cam
paigns designed to improve community well

party, Wilmington may be assured that the
Fraternity will serve at an even greater tempo
n the years to come than in the past.

available, but that in view of the steady re-
moval OF priority restrictions he believed most
manufa cturers would wait until they could get
top grade materials before they tried to reach
capacity production instead of trying to meet
growing demand with the shoddy goods
they have been compelled to turn out during
the war.
This would mean some delay in filling store
shelves, but the public would be the gamer
because of it. This statement speaks well for
American manufacturers, many OF whom
must have suffered many a qualm over the
products they turned out during the war.

Sales Pick Up

One Wilmington merchant voiced surprise
at the pickup in sales at his store since the
announcement Of peace in the Pacific. He
did not know how other merchants were far
Ing, but declared that the flow of purchases
across his counters was contrary to his ex-
pectations.
His belief had been that there would be
6euezal let-down in buying for a short time
fnts4ad he said customers are out in num-
bers and stripping his shelves as bare as
Mother Hubbard's cupboard.
Asked if he believed manufacturers would
be quick to replenish retail stocks and in
erge enough quantities to meet such de-
mand as his yesterdays sales indicated might
be expected to continue, he said that some
lines Of merchandise would be Immediately

OF course, when the endsscame
officially, they celebrated. They
brought out bottles they had been
saving for spesial occasions. They
danced in the streets of Marseilles
and Martinique They shot off fire
works and flares at airfields in
England. And they expressed a
kind of listless pleasure in Casa
blanca.
But it was a momentary cele-
bration-almost duty one. The
thing had dragged on too long.
There were too many other things
to think about.
At a staging area near Calais
where thousands of men were be-
ing reprocessed for redeployment
to the Obi theater the most spon-
taneous and continuous celebra-
tons broke out - cheering, shout
ing, banging mess kits, shooting
guns, making as much noise as
possible.
But within earshot across the
lake, members of the Eihth Air
Force 10th Wing went about es-
tablishing a new home" at Istres,
France, where they had just
moved from England.
