See where a bank in Denver is
putting in Ieft-handed checkbooks.
They figure their southpaw depos-
itors deserve just as much consid-
GRAFTON as the right handlers.
Time was when it was believed
that left-handed people had no
right to exist at all. If youngster
showed signs of using his left
hand, his parents were supposed to
break him of the habit-to force
him to use his right.
But today most doctors will tell
you that changing a child's natu-
raj left-handed tendency usually
causes more harm than good.

are parts of the country where
they are not permitted to vote and
where any effort to insist on cer-

the condition can be greatly inn
proved on a study and co-oopera-

The FEPC existing during the
war was able to improve greatly
the industrial condition of the col
ored people, though it had no en-
forcement powers. Such a Com
mission, after studying an indus
trial city and determining what
the situation is, could call all the
employers together and lay out a
definite plan for increasing the
number of jobs open to Negroes
and also for improving the grade
of such jobs. l believe all the

was enjoying in their hour of
meditation before dinner. Ours
was truly a household of graft
tude to the Father of us all for
the blessings beyond measure
which He has given and gives us.
Unto us a Savior is born!
For almost twenty centuries
we have sung praises of the Saw
ior Who lived His few brief
years, gave His life that men
might live, and left us words
that might be the bread of life
for mankind for all time to come.
But mankind has failed the
gift that was given. We live in
world that is confused and
searching frantically for its
bearings, hungry for truth and
yet unwilling to forego the
easier ways which are laid out
and which lead us away from
the very goals we seek.
marvel sometimes, that the
message of the Master has been
so poorly understood, that the
significance of what He taught
has escaped so many of us. That
was the thought ! had on Christ
mas Day. I am passing it on now
few weeks later, when the
spell of Christmas has dissipated
in many hearts and the cold and
hard facts of life are again per-
picking us.
Here is the simple and grand
lesson we can learn from the life
and teachings of Jesus.
He was Son of God. In that
exalted capacity He could see
far into the future. He knew
what men needed then and
would need today. He would not
offer a store when and where
what was needed was bread. We
can be sure that He would give
what was best and truly needed.
He would point the way mer
needed to go, in the simplest
terms that could be freighted
with so important message.
This was the turning point of
the world, and on the teachings
He gave us we could build
certaintv.
/ Did Jesus carefully analyze
the economics and political sys-
TENS of His day and recommend
specific changes to be made in
them or new systems to be
adopted in their place? Did He
advocate socialism or any of its
many forms as the remedy for
the ills of men? Did He raise
His voice with insistence on gov
ernment-provided responsibility
as the way for man to joy,
power and peace?
No-none of thesei Jesus had
no easy panaceas for shifting of
responsibility from the individ-
ual to his government. He did
not rely on economic systems or
political and social devices to do
for men what they might fear
that God was unable or unwill-
ing to do for them.
He taught men their individ-
uaI responsibilities, the way to
Righteousness and to God. He
sought to solve the problems of
the world by encouraging men
to build themselves into better
men. He saw security in char
acter and industry and devotion
to what is right and good.
He made men responsible to
God rather than to government.
Perhaps. after all, it were best
for the world to listen once more
to the gentle NaZarene.
