The words of the beautiful song of
Mary, The Magnificat: He hath
put down the mighty from their seat
and hath exalted the humble" seem
especially applicable in the atomic
era when the men and nations who
glorify physical power are precisely
those who stand aghast at It's possible
consequences.
BY comparison it is the weak who
enjoy security because Of their very
lack OF the things that beget compe-
tition and warfare.
Similarly in an age Of widespread
distrust we more readily can sympa-
thize with the position OF Christ, who
- constantly was watched and ques-
toned by supposedly righteous men,
the Pharisees. To this arrogant,
hypocritical group He said: Every
one that exalteth himself shall be
humbled, and he that humbleth him.
self shall be exalted" He thus teaches
Pharisees. ancient and modern, the
shining lesson of His life-humility.
If this virtue does not appear to
harmonic with the temper of our
time, it is undoubtedly because it is
misunderstood. 1t Is not the so-called
'inferiority complex" nor self
depreciation. Neither does it mean
an exterior attitude of piety, for the
Pharisees had that. Humility is
truth. just as pride is ignorance. 1t
springs from correct evaluation of
self. But self-analysis and self
knowledge, considered essential even
in the old pagan world, are not
sufficient for the Christian man or
state. They are, in fact, impossible
without proper understanding Of
our relationship to God.
Real humility is based on reverence
for the Creator and acceptance Of
the Divine Will. without 1t we revolt
against, set ourselves in judgment on,
the Almighty. This is sin, which is
rooted in pride. Sin first caused divi-
sion even in heaven and In Eden It
continues to foment disorder in the
world.
Humanism, the attempt to defy
man, underlies our present chaos.
Culturally, it puts man at the summit
of the universe; politically. 1t would
remake society without reference to
God. AS a result. the true order is
as the center of His creation and of
our lives we shall not enjoy the bless
ings of love and lasting peace.
The second step in humility and in
settling our present problems is to
recognize and respect the divine in
our fellowman. We submit to God
directly and to our neighbor because
of God. No loss OF dignity is involved
since submission is only to what is
Evening star., 1946-07-21

divine In our neighbor. Actually this
consciousness Of the divine presence
gives us independence OF man and
more perfect freedom. It induces
order because there can be no con-
fiict between what is divine in us and
what Is divine In others. Rather the
undivine element is the cause of
struggle. internal and external.
! Strife ceases within the soul only
when there is perfect conformity to
God. This is the supreme moment of
the spiritual life: having learned to
estimate all things in terms Of God,
no longer can we be Inundated be-
cause we are really humble. The
external struggle will end only when
God holds undisputed sway in the
world. As long rs men deny His total
reign, human totalitarianism In some
form Is inevitable.
Learn Of Me, because am meek
and humble Of heart, and you shall
find rest to your souls" Humility
brings peace. 1t also, has an en-
nobling effect on character in elimi-
mating vaulting ambition, oyerbearing
manner, intolerance of person, race
or class. 1t stamps personality and
action with true dignity and charity.
with a wholesome simplicity.
The really great are always simple
and humble. Compare the utter
ances of worldly potentates with
those OF the Father of Christendom
who signs himself "the servant OF
the servants of God" Christ was
humble, not merely because of the
simple conditions surrounding His
birth and life-one may be in humble
circumstances without being in the
least humble-but because He recog-
nized the true position of the human
ity He assumed and showed perfect
conformity to the Will of His heavenly
Father. Mary. also, ascribes her
singular selection by God to this
virtue; He hath regarded the hu-
mility of His handmade: For behold
from henceforth all generations shall
call me blessed"
So it must be with the followers
OF Christ, the children of God. A
child is simple, utterly unconscious of
itself, and unless we become as little
children we shall not enter the king
dom OF heaven. Humility, by wiping
out inordinate self-love, makes us
more efficient instruments in the
service Of God and country. For
getting self We are inspired with
boldness, enterprise and courage. We
become apostles Of action and ex-
ample. Regardless Of past or present
failings, II we are but willing to make
this surrender of self, all will be well.
"A contrite and humbled heart,
o God. thou wilt not despise."

ably widened. Greater fiexibility In
converting to civilian-type insur-
ance is authorized. In short, the
new Government policy will be more
in line with commercial life insur-
ance as to privileges of insured and
beneficiary. If this more attrac-
tive type of insurance will result
in fewer lapses and will induce a
considerable number of those who
have defaulted to reinstate their
policies, it will be we'll worth the
cost and the extra administrative
work involved.
