Preacher Meets Rebel

Prophets in ancient times were
something like preachers Of these
times with two important differ.
ences Prophet and preacher both
speak for God to men But the
modern preacher has a church.
the prophets had no established
church, no chapel They could not
so much as rent a school-room or
a theatre as preachers sometimes
have to do. The prophets had to
say their say wherever and when
ever they could There was no
regular eleven O'Clock service
The other difference was that while
the modern preacher likes to have
a large church full Of people to
preach to, the prophet OF olden
times did not always perhaps net
usually try for large crowds. but
rather picked their listeners very
carefully They would be content
with an audience Of one, provided
the one man was the right man.
So the prophet Ahijah met young
man named Jeroboam alone one
day. and gave him the idea that
changed the lives Of whole ma
ton. Tearing his long cloak into
a DOZEN strips C'Is the man
crazy?'' Jeroboan must have
thought, for the cloak was brand
new, he invited the younger man
to take ten of the pieces. The ten
strips were ten tribes of Israel,
and putting them into Jeroboam S
hand meant that he was to. be the
leader of the revolution and seces-
sion which would tear those tribes
away from the then united nation.
The preacher, in short was invit-
ing and melting rebellion and revo-
luton.

For the People

Revolution is not something for
every day or every generation. II
is desperate last resort But as
in the days of Ahijah, SO since then
it is true that government which
ceases to be Of the people, for the
people and by the people, has for
feited its right to respect The
reader Of ! Kings will discover
gem OF wisdom in what the old
counselors said to the young Reho-
beam: II you will be servant
to this people today and serve
them then they will be your
servants forever Rehoboam

When Is Revolution Necessoryo

1t is not the first time that
preachers have been on the side
of the revolutionist In the Ameri-
can revolution some churches,
among them the Presbyterian,
were so active in promoting that
revolution that when British sol
diers searched the houses Of citi-
zens suspected Of revolutionary
tendencies. if they found in the
house a copy Of the Presbyterian
hymn. book or catechism. the
evidence was considered sufficient
to make arrests on the spot. This
raises serious question Why is
it that churches and preachers
which are generally conservative
and teach and preach patriotism
as a Christian attitude, why is it
that they have ever supported
revolution, even by violence? Over
in England a famous convention of
preachers and other religious lead
ers in the year l648 wrote it into
their creed that it is the duty Of
people TO pray for magistrates
Uhey meant the government in all
its branches}, to honour their per
sons, to obey their lawful com
mands, and to be subject to their
authority j" Yet in the very
next year, l649, some Of those
same religious men took off the
head Of King Charles I How can
men who believe that obeying
laws and authority is a Christian
duty, also become revolutionists7

MARKLEEvILE, Calf, June
28.-Little Kathy Paxton, who
survived more than 40 hours
without food or shelter in the
High Sierra wilderness with no
more serious consequences than
a couple Of bumps, is going back
to Woods Lake to finish her va
cation today.
The red-clad 5-year-old was
located up the granite cliffs 11a
miles from Woods Lake yester-
day by Alvin Van Dell, 80. q
timber cruiser. He joined the
search because I knew the
country around there"
Mr.. Van Dell and a friend,
Louis Avery, started to work the
high country because they
thought others among the 500
looking for Kathy had thorough
~ worked over lower lands.
Woods Lake is at $500 feet ele-
walton, near Kit Carson Pass, on
the ridge of the High Sierra.
Heard Dog Barking.
Mr.. Van Dell and Mr.. Avery
rechecked Kathy's last foot
prints and began climbing.
Then, Mr.. Van Dell said, he
heard a dog barking up tn. hill
and he investigated.
II thought the dog might have
turned up something, but the
mutt skipped before I got to
him." he said. so just worked
through the brush looking care
fully"
After fruitlessly searching for
more footprints. Mr.. Van Dell
said he shouted. Lou, LOU" to
attract his partner.
Lou didn't answer. but Kathy
did.
why don't you call me?" she
piped from a nearby ledge. She
had been sleeping in a crevice
when Mr.. Van Dell called from
only a few fest away.
Hardly daring to believe it
could be. the tall lumberman
asked: Are you Kathy?"
EYES," she replied with a tiny
smile, land I'm tired"
So Mr.. Van Dell carried
Kathy, chattering about her ex-
periences all the way, half a
mile /back to a road where a
California Highway Patrol car
was waiting with her stepfather,
Stewart Crandall of Cupertino.
Kathy was rushed to search
headquarters, where a doctor
from Stead Air Force Base near

Critics Less Active
Recently, NEA Hears
By HE AssoeIoted Press

NEW YORK, June 28.-The
National Education Association
heard today that. critics Of public
education became less active
and less effective" during the
last school year.
However, the NEA said, there
have been some severe attacks
on American schools. Efforts to
combat them must be continued,
it added.
An NEA subgroup. the Ma
tional Commission for the De-
Tense of Democracy Through
Education, prepared q report
for the MEAS ed annual con-
vention.
Calls Some Less Active.
A summary of the report. re-
leased by NEA. said: y
"Some of the individuals who
seemed to be most active in de-
veloping, melting and encourage
ing destructive criticism of pub
lie education became less active
and less effective during the
1953-54 academic year. -.

not been permitted to give undi-
vided attention to some of their
most critical problems, such as

cient numbers of properly quail.
fed teachers and inadequate
finances.
ut may have been merely a
coincidence that, within a six
week period, four long-heralded
books appeared, all severely crit.
ical Of public education, its lead
erShip, its methods, its standards
or its motives"
Urges Defensive Groups.
Noting that several books and
magazine articles favorable to
American schools had appeared
in the academic year, the COM
mission recommended that local
NEA groups form committees to
combat attacks on schools and
help the commission circulate
material concerning ''the vari-
out trouble-making groups and
