Spiritual Values in the Home
By RALPH E. KNUDSEN, Dean, Berkeley Baptist Divinity School

the family. Music inspires and helps
develop good attitudes and right
values for life.
Home should provide good and
constructive literature for its men,
bers. There should be much discrim-
nation in the selection of reading
material. Good reading on the read
ing desk will help create a desire
for that which is good and whole
some. The Bible should find a place
in the library and on the reading
table of every home. There is no
message SO pertinent nor SO vital for
good living as that found in the
Bible. This book reveals God who
is the very heart of life and the only
basis for h~appiness. and fruitful life.
Reality of Love
Third spiritual value: Express and
live in the reality of love. Love is
enjoyment with obligation" The
real meaning of love can never be
known except through loves expert
ences. There is no such thing as love
in abstraction. Many people get
their ideas of love from sloppy
scenes on the screen.
There is an intelligent and san
way in which to know and expert
ence love. Sex and passion are not
the basis for determining love. Our
modern looseness in sex expression
and sex talk has robbed home and
many individuals of the full enjoy
ment and meaning of true love. True
love expressed in the home will help
youth understand its naturalness
and its unselfishness. The revival of
home love will grow a generation of
balanced youth who know and I'M
derstand those basic qualities of life
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-07-01

THE home is one of the most i'm
\ portant institutions in our Amer
lean life. Someone has said, 1--WE
are not ruled by our constitutions
but by our institutions" In the home
lives are merged into a oneness of
interest and purpose through love,
which is the only truly constructive
force in the world.
The home is also the first school
of the child. Unless some great
moral and social lessons are learned
at home they will never be learned
adequately. The child is the most
important factor in the home and
gives meaning to all the home can
be and do.
1t is the home which nurtures
those deep spiritual qualities of life
which produce character and give
stability to individual life and COM
munity existence.
Revalue Basis of Life
Many of our changed attitudes
about home and marriage have come
out of women's new freedom and
mans new organization. Women can
never stoop to the excuses of men
in smoking, drinking and sex irregu-
larities without serious consequences
to the home. Men who act as though
physical existence, with satisfaction
for all its appetites, were life's sum-
mum bonum, cannot give anything
constructive to the home. There
needs to be a revaluing of the total
basis of life to keep life from grow
ing stale and home from becoming
4 boredom of existence.
In our confusion and moral un-
certainty, I should like to suggest
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-07-01

four spiritual values which will give
life and vigor to home. These values
are not such as need money to
enjoy our outstanding ability to
practice.
Sacredness of Marriage Vow
First spiritual value: Reaffirm the
sacredness of the marriage vow. 1t
is a sacred vow which two take at
the altar when they promise fidelity
until death do us part" Someone
said that marriage used to be a ON
tract but that now it is only a con-
tact. Getting married is not taking
a chance but uniting in a union
which gives and brings life's best to
those involved. The sacred book was
right when it asserted that in mar
riage "they shall be one flesh" for
this new experience brings a unity
of purpose which gives meaning to
all of life.
Appreciation of Better Things
Second spiritual value: Create and
foster an appreciation for the better
and finer things of life. There are
many rich values which have come
to us out of our wonderful heritage.
The fine values of culture and re-
igion should be the enjoyment and
possession of all. Our American Gull
ture is young in the history of civil
zation but it has much of great value
to give for our enjoyment and de-
velopment.
Good music should be part of the
experience of every home. 1t ought
to get beyond the jazz stage to those
great pieces of music which have
stood storm and stress. The modern
music store is well stocked with the
finest in records for all members of

In a Farm Kitchen
On a Hot Day

oh would I were a lady
~ In a still and shady bower,
Slipping cooling potions-
Like a pale and fragile flower.
Pink and tapered fingers,
Complexion milky white,
Voice as soft and murmurous
AS a starry summer night.
In vague and peaceful dreaming
Would pass the languid hours;
And when I reused from dreaming
I'd gather fragrant flowers.
But no, I'm not a lady!
A lady on a farm?
I'm a stalwart country woman
With a strong and sturdy arm.
My days are busy, busy,
Crammed full of active hours
But it's nice to think of ladies
In their cool, secluded bowers.

An Editorial
It's the Results

d GENTLY we heard a woman
~ who has many years of good
citizenship and community interest
to her credit criticized because she,
as president of an important group,
did not always use the proper tense.
In her enthusiasm she told of what
the club "had did,"
We have thought a lot about the
incident, particularly because the
critic was a younger woman who
has had the opportunity of a fine
education. She, however, does not
60 out of her way to help in the
various projects in her community.
1t is true that once in a while, if
somebody appeals to her, she will
take charge of a program or a prof.
ect and do it perfectly. That is the
pity; she could contribute so much
because she has the time and the
means and the ability, but not
always the inclination.
The one who 'had did" probably
did not go through the eighth grade.
She has had four children. She has
had many lean years, but she has
always had a willing heart. Every
one knows that any worthwhile
need or project will receive an at
tentive ear from her and a willing
hand. She has left dust on her
parlor table many a time to do
some piece of work for her church
or the Red Cross or the Legion
Auxiliary or the school. Many a
time she has ironed far into the
night because something had seemed
more important to her than that
basket of clothes.
We remember her when she came
among us. She was shy and modest
but always interested in whatever
was right and for the good of others
The teachers knew her as one of the
best of parents, and her first inter.
ests were her children. Her place il
the community grew until she wa
unanimously elected president O
the most influential group. 1t die
not make any difference whethe
she "had did, things or chad done
things" She accomplished any
anything she put her hand TO AM
her heart in, and it would seem tina
the results are more important thal
the tense of the verbs she used.
