People differ in what they think about the Bible. Some say it is good book and should be read for it's beauty of style. Others say the Bible is full of contradictions. Many accept it as the inspired Word of God without knowing why they do so.
 The Bible is the most important book ever written. In it you find Gods message to man. But do you know who wrote it? Can we believe it's every word? What does it say?
 From the human standpoint the Bible was written by not less than thirty-six authors over period of about sixteen hundred years. But the important thing to remember is that these men wrote under the di- rection of God. He guided them in writing. This is what we mean by inspiration.
 We can believe the Bible. Critics have tried to make it book full of mistakes. In no case have these ap- parent inaccuracies been proved. Instead, archaeology, for example. has proved over and over again that the Bible is true and accurate.
 Since the Bible is dependable, it is essential that we know what it says. Christ is the main subject. It tells how man first came into the world; how sin came into existence: why man was condemned to death forever; why Jesus came down from heaven to die, willingly, on the cross for all mankind, regardless of age, race, or color.
 The Bible shows how man need not die, because God provided a substitute, the Lord Jesus, to die in our place. God has provided place in heaven for all those who simply put their faith in Him. This is what is meant when it says, 'He that be- lieveth on the Son JeSusl hath everlasting life: and he that believ- eth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. (John 3:36).
 The Bible is a wonderful book. Why not find out more about it7 We will be glad to help you.

he offered the creed that true Americans live by"-as enunciated by Commentator Paul Harvey--"l believe in my God, and in my country and in myself, and in that order"
 Commander Daniel, the Virginia boy who on the fifth try, persuad- ed the Navy to accept him in World War II despite his TB his tory, and who-without a college degree-has fought his own way up in the world from mill hand to executive, lays it on the line this way:
 When the pioneers settled this wilderness and began to look to- ward the west there was a philosophy that man was suppos- ed to provide for his own-and for his own future. He didn't demand that somebody else give him a rocking chair at eventide. He did n't insist that someone else take care of him He just looked out at the rolling plains stretching away to the tall, green mountains, lifted his eyes to the blue skies and said: Thank you, God, I can take it from here.
 Somewhere along the way this spirit has been lost, and it must be recaptured.
 These are marching orders, we believe. for which the vast major ity of LegiOnnaires, and of Ameri- cans-at-large, have been waiting.

Priest Says
Mass Media
Potent Poison

NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y.-(NC)
"A Salesian missionary has urg-
ed the American people to open
their eyes and see what potent
poison is being fed through the
channels of communication" to
the youth of the nation.
Father A. Joseph louis, S.D.B.,
recently returned from a tour of
Salesian missions in the Orient
and the Middle East told a group
of Fri-nd of the Salesians here
that people are often surprised
when ignorant pagans worship
mute idols"
However, he said, they are not
at all surprised when their sons
and daughters worship the "un-
speakably untalented and lgar
agents of evil" Father Louis said
that every day movies, radio, tele-
vision and the press are feeling
teenagers "moral filth"
The Salesian priest noted that
missioners travel to distant jun
giles to save souls, and added that
here in the United States there
are ''less distant but much dark
er and more dangerous jungles on
! Main Street where the souls of
boys and girls are betrayed and
sacrificed before the eyes of mil
lions of indifferent Americans"

Bishop Says
Religious Life
Hard Work

NoTRE DAME, Ind. ~ CNC) -
The capacity for heroism" in
many young men and women is
one of the greatest sources of vo-
cations to the priesthood and re-
ligious life, Bishop Leo A. Purs-
ley, Apostolic Administrator of
the Diocese of Fort Wayne, Ind,
declared here.
The Church today promises to
every priest, Sister and Brother
the same future that Christ fore
cast for His apostles and their
successors, Bishop Pursley said.
He described this as "a life of
unremitting labor, of self-sacrific-
ing service, a life that is impos-
sible, in every sense of the word
without love, life that is made
glorious, thing Ct joy beyond
the worlds dreams, by generous,
unconditional surrender to God. "
Bishop Pursley minimized the
congeniality and security of re-
ligious life as inducements for a
vocation. 1T seems to me-" he
said, that any boy or girl actual
ly persuaded by such considera-
tions would not be worthy" of
such a calling.
1--WE cannot hope to succeed in
saving all vocations at whatever
stage they may be-" Bishop Purs-
ley said. But this hard, unhappy
fact must never discourage our
best and most persistent efforts. !"
