Lesson

By WILLIAM E. GILROY, d. d.
All through the Old Testament
runs the story of the conflict bet
ween true worship and the wor-
ship of idols-the moral and in
telligent worship of a Supreme
Being and the superstitious bow.
ing down to wood and stone.
Among the Hebrews God was a
growing and developing con.
ception. Yet in the most distant
times, and to the dimmest per.
ception, the worship of God was
related to mans moral nature
and spiritual welfare.
1t was a boldly noble concep-
ton in which man dared 10 say
that he was made in the image
and likeness of God. That vas in
telligent faith and spiritual caring.
1t was m a reasoning from all
that was best in himself, and set.
ting before himself in worship and
devotion all that he wished to be-
come.
Wherever men had this cor.
ception of God, no matter how
dimly they perceived it, and even
though their lives were marked
by ignorance and sin, they were
lifted toward something better.
It was tn faith that marked
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, even
if there we're some unworthy cpl
sodes in their behavior. 1t was the
noblest thing about them, and il
is this that makes them worth re.
Numbering.
Contrast with this the pagan
and his %grotesque and ugly OBJ
fleets OF worship. Could any
morally sane, spiritually intelli'
gent being rejoice in the fact that
The was made in the image Of his
idol?
Yet in spite of that contrast,
and the glory of their saints and
prophets, the people often turned
from the God of their fathers to
worship craven images and to
practice id~olatrous rites. This is
not true of a few. These were
humble and lowly saints and the
great prophets. The Lord re-
minded Elijah in his mood of
depression, following his great
victory against the prophets Ct
Baal, the sun god, that there were
1000 who had not bowed the
knee to Baal.
Why were the, people drawn to
icolatry when their religious hertz
age ought to have kept them
true? For precisely the same rea-
son that people turn to false gods
and false ways today. 1t was the
line of least resistance.
It was the way to indulgence
and immoral allurement. The
heathen rites h a d licentious and
sexually degrading aspects. When
Israel turned to idolatry it was
not only a forsaking Of their re-
but a moral descent.
What does all this mean in
terms OF today? The idols and
images are different, but the al
lur.ments and the moral degra :
dations are the same. Every daily
paper, as it's new columns re-
fleet the moral, social, and re-
ligious life of our time, reveal
how much of paganism is In our
And it is true, as it va of
old, that sin seeks out individuals
anG peoples. False gods and false
worship can destroy us as surely
as they destroyed Of old, unless
the good that is in us prevails
over evil.

and was destroyed. The flames
also destroyed Halls car. He was
badly burned around the hands
and face and spent several months
in bed.
Now, the Halls live out in the
country, and with Hall in bed and
the farm work to be carried on,
Mrs. Hall needed an automobile.
She travelled far and wide to all
the automobile agencies without
success.
In December, she told her hus-
band she was going to write a
personal letter to Mr.. Ford and
ask him if something couldn't be
done about buying an automobile.
He scoffed at the idea but Mrs.
Hall thought otherwise. After all
she told her husband, it certainly
would not do any harm. II don't
know Mr.. Ford and he doesn't
know me. All he can do is refuse
or ignore my letter." she said.
So she wrote a letter to the late
Mr.. Ford. She told him of her
situation and asked him if there
was anyway he could help. About
two weeks later she received a
wonderful letter from the Ford
company telling her they would
check her story with the local
dealer in Wallace and she would
hear from them at a later date.
Of course, there was talk in the
Hall household that the answer to
her letter was just a routine &C
knowledgement and that the wohle
thing would end at that point.
Several weeks passed and Mrs.
Hall was about convinced her eff
forts had failed. Just as she was
about to give up all hope. the
loca dealer in Wallace called her
and told her he had a new car
for the Hall family. The Ford
company had checked her story,
and finding it to be true. made

Works Are Cited

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 10 Up
There is a group of newspaper
editors in the United States which
never meets, although their pub
locations annually increase in
number and fill a unique need.
These are the editors and pub
fishers of Americas prison pa
pers, a class of periodicals which
the general public never sees. At
the Kentucky state reformatory at
Lagrange the inmate newspaper
has an exchange list of more than
SO publications, written, edited
and printed by inmates of various
state and federal prisons.
The papers in the array that
Editor Talbot R. Allen receives at
Lagrange would do credit to any
collection of trade or school ma
gaines. A few are mimeograph-
ed, a few more show uneven
printing, but most are as attrac-
lively printed and bound as many
publications circulated ION the
outside" Two and three-color COW
ers are common.
Few of the titles betray their
prison background. Aliens paper
at Lagrange is called the "Reha-
bilitator". Plainly labeled ''Pri-
SON. are the "Reformatory Her
ald', Hutchinson, Kas., and the
Draper Inmate" of Speigner,
Ala. Others suggest their origin
more subtly, such as ''Time," IL
linois state prison; Hours, Ken
lucky state prison, and 'Shad-
ows", Salem, Ore. But there also
are such non-committal titles as
THE Monthly Record, the "Mes-
senger'', 1.-The New Era, "The
Northlander'', and 1.-The Candle,
which might be the official organs
of almost any organization.
