greetings and blessings which he
has done faithfully for the past
several years, although / am a

CHRISTMAS, next Sunday, win
lead many men back to the teach
ings and prophecies of their
Bibles; the moral laws whichth ey
have pledged to uphold in a
civilized society. Nest men wiz |
admit they have not kept the |
faith and, at Christmas time, most /
men feel humble and repentent,
seeking the REBIRTH of the
ideal which modern living tends
to destroy.
- - -
THE FAMILY BIBLE no longer
occupies its honored place in the
home as it once did in a more
moral America. Other books have
replaced it. The Bible contains
the wisdom of all the years, but
men still doubt: (1) Existance of
a Creator; ~ The Biblical teach
ings; (s) The amazing prophecies
such as airborne peoples, melting
cities, plaques and Gods tremend-
BUS power
MODERN SCIENCE today is
not so skeptical. The Creator
MUST TRULY possess powers
forever BEYOND the ken of man,
g Tough we, in our conceits, may
not think so. Already man has
simulated few Bible prophecies
of Gods Power. Man himself can
make the hills ring with (radio)
trumpets. He can fly Sloft. He
can (atomic) melt cities; create
(biologicaD plaques; heal the
sick. Man can do many things he
considered in the Bible as hoax,
impossible.
THE ATOMIC POWER, so
lately developed, is but another
weak effort of Stimulating the
power of the Creator. Atomic
structure and content in Planet
Earth dates from the very begin
ming Of the diverse. The atomic |
structure out-dates man himself. |
Atom power is as old as the sun.
We are JUST BEGINNING to
sense the revelations" and are
still primitive.
sS Se ss
PEOPLE TODAY, sit at home
Snd see IMAGES Of people and
events existing hundreds of miles
sway. And we hear conversation
and music and action as it takes
place. Yet, Bible skeptics once
swore that such things could
never happen. HOW COULD the
inspired men SEE the things they
claimed were transmitted by
Gods Power? What power could
ever transmit images and sound
over vast distances. laughed the
scorners.

WE CELEBRATE Christmas as
reminder that we, as men, are
'still seeking the truth, the peace
and the brotherhood of our faith.
We face again the idol worship
Of the golden calf and primitive
passions. We totter near the
brink of selfish greeds and ruin
Gus wars. Today, proud men are
again kneeling down to The
Creator for they will need His
saving grace in the perilous
periods ahead more than at any
time in the past. And to those
good men of all races, and creeds,
A MERRY CHRISTMAS

Thursday, December Is, an in

gram Of instrumental selections
by an orchestra afiliated with
the American Federation Of Mu-
sicians at Gloucester Memorial
Church. Rev. James L. Smith,

were heartily applauded, and a
reading was thrown in trequest

Cooke, trombone, and myself at
the piano, we're said to sound

I have been selected to oper-
ate the program Of the S. Cole
Taylor, the fourth Sunday
in January, and that probably
means that there will be an
other Of the Hecklers' discourses
which have seemed to go so well
with the audience. More par
ticulars later.
Much interested in the COM
ing DeShay concert which will
be given in Brown Hall, January
8. The capacity of the hall is
| limited, and you had better
make sure of your seat before
the time comes. The Berea 7th
Day Adventist Church is spon-
sor, and their reputation for
putting on tops programs is well
known. With the addition to the
program Of Elder T. L. Davis
in baritone solos, great enjoy
ment is sure to be yours on the
night of Jan. 8.

cities and civilizations Of our more

study the Biblical kings and
people and problems. There were
the same rich and poor; the

His coming was predicted by a
star, body of the universe, ac-

Communist Trial Judge Medina Ordered
Isolated By Prosecutor. Says Amber

"McGohey's orders are that no.
body is TO be let in to see Judge
Medina Captain of the Foley
Square Court Guard Amber to-
day told spokesman for delega-
ton of writers and artists who
had come to see the Judge to ask
that three of the eleven Commun-
list Party leaders presently on
trial be released from the indefi-
mite prison sentence passed on
them by Medina.
This admission came after 20
minutes of argument by Theodore
Ward, George Nelson, and David
Altman with Capt. Amber. The
spokesman insisted on their rights
to discuss their complaint with
Judge Medina. Capt. Amber re-
fused them admission, alluding to
orders from higher-ups, and
then finally admitted that the
Prosecutor had given him these
unprecedented instructions.
Mr.. Ward, author of Our Ian
and others plays, asked Capt. AM
bier, Can a prosecutor take the
liberty of isolating a judge, and
of keeping information from him
which a group of citizens feels is
vital?I Capt. Amber, declined to
answer the question.
The spokesman left statement
with Capt. Amber after he final
ly promised to deliver it personal
ly to Judge Medina, and also said
that an even larger delegation
would try to see the Judge next
Thursday at l2;45 p. m.
In consultation with the large
group of writers and artists who
were in the delegation. a statement
protesting the Prosecutors irregu-
lar and possibly illegal instruc-
tons, was issued.
The statement protesting the
Prosecutors actions follows;
