Can II Be a Sin
To Go to Church?

Church-going is not necessarily a
good act. Worship may be a quite
wicked deed. Most people are slow
getting that into their heads. They
think that one act of worship on
Sunday will somehow make up for a
lot of bad behavior Monday through
Saturday inclusive. But it is not so.
The first person in history to see
and to say that worship need not be
good and can even be very bad, was
none other than the prophet Amos.
The IsraeIites to whom he
spoke were what we would call
a church going people; they
were certainly temple going.
They followed the same ritual
that was used in Jerusalem,
they offered tithes and sacri-
fices, they kept the Sabbath,
they attended the feasts and
they observed the fasts and they
sang the sacred hymns.
Yet Amos denounces the whole
business, and condemns the wor-
shippers as guilty sinners. What
was wrong?

It Looked All Right

y EADERS of the Old Testament
~ will remember that at Bethel,
where the Israelites had one of their
principal temples, golden calves
had been set up to represent Jehov-
ah their God. Now even though the
people worshipped the true God,
surely it was wrong to worship him
In the form of an animal.
The form of their worship was all
wrong, much further wrong than
any form of Christian worship is
today; yet Amos does not condemn
them for worshipping in this mis-
taken way. Never once anywhere
does he say word about the gold
en- calves. And il he does not say
anything about big thing like gold
en- calves, still less does he have
anything severe to say -5out less
important departures from good
form" in worship.
He does not condemn the peo-
pie for having the wrong hymn
book, or for not having a good
choir. He hasn't a word of
blame for nOn-attendance at
worship; indeed he comes down
hardest on those who do attend.
Apparently church attendance
In Bethel was excellent-that
was not their trouble.
Again, he has no fault to find with
the Israelites because their ser
vices were uninteresting." Maybe
they were; but on the other hand
they were probably full of color and
of pageantry. something to see as
well as to hear. Yet Amos was not
impressed. Further. he makes no
complaint about poor sermons.

World War z Vets
Get Social Security
Service Credit

Amendment to the Social Sc
curity program effective Septem-
Der l, 1850, give World War 2
veterans wage credits of $3.50 for
each month of military service
performed during the war period,
according to Carl w. Bruner,
manager of the Great Falls, Mon
tana, Social Security Administra-
ton Office.
The credit is given for ca c h
month of active service between
September l6, 1910, and July "a,
1947. In many cases the n W
provision will bring larger bene-
fits to present survivors of service
men and provide cash payments
to families of veterans who die
in the future. Also veterans who
are in the 5000 age group will
find that their retirement benfits
will be affected by this amend
ment.
The new change now makes it
possible for the widow, child, or
dependent parent of an individual
who died in or out of the service
and who at t h e time of death,
was not insured under social Sc
curity, to become entitled to sur
vivors benefits by filing a claim.
Families of deceased veterans
should make inquiry Immediately
at tn e field Office at 80 Post
Office Building in Great Falls to
see if, they are effected by these
amendments.
The new program extends the
protection offered to veterans
who die within 3 years of dis
charge and now includes veterans
who die in service or at any time
thereafter if they served as much
as one day in the armed forces.
The $3.50 a month credits are
awarded in spite of death occurr-
ing as the result of a service
connected disability; however,
they will not be given in those
cases in which the service time is

In its broader aspect, this pro-

French ochre, one of the most i'm.

widely used in painting. The word
"ochre" comes from the ancient
Greek, "ochros." Homer used it
with the word "chloros" to describe
the pallor of the face from fear in
battle. Chloros denoted a greenish
