urged on Jesus of Nazareth, as He said:
II must work the works of Him that
sent me, while it is yet day. The night
cometh, when no man can work"
A certain Sunday morning sermon of
Phillips Brooks so tremendously i'm
pressed the great congregation that it
sent many out actually to practice what
he had preached. That message lives
on across the years. Its burden Is that
life is too short to nurse grievances, to
harbor grudges and resentmentS. or to
put off saying the words which would
be an elixir to some comrade by the
way. Today's silence would fill you with
remorSe tomorrow morning If you re-
ceived word your friend was dead. per
haps," said the author of 20 Little
Town of Bethlehem" perhaps you are
letting your friends heart ache for
word of appreciation or sympathy which
you mean to give him some time. If you
could know and feel and see. all of
sudden, that the time is short. how it
would break the spell! How you would
go instantly and do the thing which
you might never have a chance to dol"
Yes, life is too short to postpone kind
ness, too short to be vengeful, petty or
unkind; it is too short to be little. Time
is running out! That is what the old
New Year hymn reminds US:
Our life is a dream, our time as a
stream
Glides swiftly away.
And the fugitive moment refuses to
stay"
But that ought not to depress or Ali us
with gloom. It ought to spur us to put
into every fugitive fragment of time
the best that is in us. That alone can
make us workmen that need not to be
ashamed.
Time is not only running out, it is
running in-running in to Gods eter-
nifty. The river of the years but carries
us into Gods presence. there to live
anew, fulfilling that eternity which,
even now, Is set in our hearts.
And So with the reminder which the
new year brings, that the night cometh,
that time is running out. greeting the
unknown and unseen with cheer. we
need to face the deep meaning of John
Oxenham's lines:
"It is not so much where you live,
AS how. and why, and when you live,
That answers in the affirmative,
Or maybe in the negative,
The QUESTIONABLE you At to live?
It is not so much where you live
AS whether while you live you live
And to the world your highest give.
And so make answer positive
That you are truly fit to live"

finding 1t impossible to keep its highway pro-
gram advancing as 1t should under the existing
pay-as-you-go arrangement. Some way of rails
ing the funds required to keep abreast of growing
traffic congestion in some areas seems inevitable.
Perhaps Virginia may find it worth while to study
the toll system it ponders the problem of
financing the many new highways and bridges
which are needed on some of the major routes.

The cost Of electricity produced

Political Comments

None of us want men in office I'M
fit for the job, who have no sense
Of their public trust. e
The only politics that a good
citizen has to indulge in is the
casting of his ballot according
to his honest convictions, and
would we but do this, we would
not have to fear from corrupt
ion in government. Our greatest
heritage is an unfettered ballot,
the exercise of which, without
outside influence, is our first
duty as citizens.
, 1952-01-19

Prerequisite to voting, is the
preliminary registration. Politici-
ans, for some reason, fear a large
vote. The way for the public to
assure a large vote, is first to as
sure a large registration. If you
are not registered, you can not
vote, and if you a not vote, you
are useless as a citizen.
No one need complain about corr
ruption in government. No need
to make snide remarks about
dishonest politicians. No need to

Nomination To

politician and prominent Westside
undertaken, has taken out petitions
as candidate for state senator on
the Democratic ticket.
MI. McLin, who has been a re-
sident of Dayton for approximate
ly twenty years, is best remember
ed from theturbulent City Com
mission race in 1948, in which he
polled more votes than any Negro
candidate, for any office in the
history of Dayton and vicinity.
In seeking election from the Bird
Senatorial District, Mr.. McLin is
attempting to crack a tougher nut,
than he undertook in seeking a
seat on the City Commission.
Other Democrat seeking the no.
mination are Myron Upton, John
G.. Smith and Ed WEIGH. The sue
cessful candidate will more than
likely be opposed by Republican
incumbent, 1. E. Baker.

7 Taft Moves
Into Wisconsin

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 (INS)
Sen. Taft (R) Ohio, leaves this
weekend to open his Presidential
campaign in Wisconsin, where he
hopes primary voters will show him
to be the COPS strongest candid
ate.
In an indication that he will pull
no punches, Taft said today he
backs up the San Francisco speech
of his campaign chairman, David
S. Ingalls,, who swung inferential-
ly and heartily on Gen. Eisenhow-
err.
Taft said there was nothing
wrong" with ingalls, warningthat
Republicans should not be lured
from the Taft caus,, by 'hero
worship or "glamor and sex ap-
peal" or take a "pig in a poke"
The senate COP leader comment
ed:
"There is no personal reflection
ON Con Eicapbowar in II TT ,oara-
ly suggests that he would not be a
strong candidate"
Taft's friends contend there is
no reason why the Senator or his
campaign spokesman should not
answer the oft-expressed criticism
that he lacks campaign appeal and
there fore might not win in 1862.
Taft denied a report that he
personally had written ingalls,
speech, which was given before the
Republican National Committee.
But he added that he does not
"disown" it.
Wisconsin's April 1 primary will
be an important test for Taft.

PLAYING GOLF
THE HARD WAY

DENVER - AS far as anybody
knows, only two double eagles =
three strokes under par - have
been shot at the 460 yard 18th
hole, an uphill par 5 at Cherry
Hills, site of the 1888 u. S. Open.
It's a cinch that no one ever
bagged a double eagle at the home
hole the way Howard (Bud) Jones,
Cherry Hill manager, did this year.
Jones led off by banging his tee
shot straight for the lake which
cuts into the fairway. But the ball,
instead of sinking from sight, skip
ped across the water like a flat
stone flung by small boy and
bounced into the fairway beyond.
Thus reprieved from penalty,
Jones hauled out his brassie and
smacked a 240-yard screamer onto
the green and into the cup.
