In tnese inspired storles
Saints
ONE Of the great biographies Of
" the Bible is that Of Abraham.
II you win read It In Genesis you
will see II IL not like one Of our mod
ern biographies: II does not follow
. continuous line. but consists Of
short incidents strung together
sometimes without connection.
Il Il more like an album Of
pictures than like . movie. Yet
putting all the pictures together
We get an impression Of . re.
mArkable man.
Indeed, Abraham was one Of the
most remarkable men who ever
lived. Without q church. without q
Bible. without prophet or priest or
tradition, born In q nation and .
family that ''worshiped other gods. -
a. Joshua said later. somehow Abra.
ham came to know that there IL but
one God. and not only to know that
a. q fact but to know that God ~ q
friend. Un fact. Abraham's name
among the Arabs to this day IL '"The
Friend.") We must call Abraham
one Of the great religious geniuses
Of all human history.
Yet he does not stand alone. The
Bible Is book Of saints: the letter
to the Hebrews calls the roll OF
some, and ends by saying time 10
too short to name them all.
Now . saint Is not q person
who lives totally without sin. A
saint Is one In whose life good.
ness is stronger than evil; q
saint Is one who actually lives
as friend Of God, for whom
God Is the central fact In all
his life.

The Light That Shines


FURTHERMORE, when you read

trace a very interesting story
through them all: namely the story
Of the human understanding oil
Right and Wrong.
But In Old Testament times,
- In the case Of Abraham. we
must remember they were IN the
dawn-years before the sunlight
Of Christ had risen. Some Of the
things Abraham did would get
him into Jail nowadays; but
some Of those very acts were
then the mark Of q gentleman.
Sometimes when you are discour.
aged and think the world Is growing
worse. all you need to do is ia
think back to some Of these old
Bible stories. What the very best

The human race has progressed,
and nowhere more than In its knowl.
edge of what is right to do. And
even SO. man like Abraham, az
good and great as he was, shines
with an even brighter Light across
the centuries, challenging us to rise
above our times as he often rose
above his own.

Sinners
THESE are no whitewashed plas-

figures Of the Bible stories. They
come before US just as they were.
Abraham. for example, at times
was a coward. liar. a bigamist, a
Shareholder.
We must not suppose that ev.
erything any character In the
Bible did was right, or 10 right
today. The writer's simply tell
the stories, seldom using I'D.
p jectives like dad" or good
or mobile" or ''mean." We are
left to make our own judgments.
We are shown what effects sin has
on men, we see how evil spreads by
suggestion and imitation, we see
how temptation works. God inspired
the biographers; but he does not
Inspire men to tell lies or to cover
up evil by calling ii good. So do
not be shocked to find that even a
saint like Abraham had feet of clay.
The important things about him are
the. good, not the bad.

Own Privute Bus

When the teams and the band
of the Moss Point high school
travel it will be in a new Inter-
national school bus with Moss
Point Tigers emblazoned on the
side.
The bus which is the property
of the school was purchased
through the efforts OF the Ath-
letic department and the con-
tributions of patrons and inter
ested individuals, with one of the
largest contributions coming from
the employees of the paper mill.
In addition to transporting the
athletic teams, the bus is used
to take players home in the aft
ernoons after practice. This makes
it possible for students living at
a distance to take part in more of
the extra school activities.
The bus will be maintained by
the vocational department under
the supervision of Donald Stew
art, head of the department. Mr..
Stewart is also the official driver
of the bus,
