Voice Of SELF

Saul made another mistake often
made by strong men. It is worse
than an ordinary mistake, it is a
calamitous error, a sin that tears
a man to pieces quickly. Ii is the
sin of listening to his own desires
and ambitions first of all. IF I
want it, it must be all right" is a
silly remark. You would not believe
people could be so foolish as TO
make it. You would not think that
any one would set up his own
Judgment above that of God. but
many do. The way their mind
works is familiar to all of us. be-
cause we have all some time or
other argued to ourselves just the
same way. Look" we say to our
selves, "of course I listen to the
voice of God and used to hear him
speaking in the Bible or in the
Church. But lately 7 have come tc
believe that the Bible and the
Church don't exactly strike my
needs. I believe God will speak to
me in my own thoughts" land
more of the same.) You see what
this does: it either sets up ones
own thoughts as better than Gods.
or else it identifies ones own
thoughts with Gods will.

Voice Of the Crowd

SUiCe W thS OsObu
The third mistake which Saul
made was perhaps one Of the most
common, in our day or any time. 1t
was letting the voice of the crowd
speak for God PLATE made that
mistake, and so have countless
others. But you can't get right and
wrong figured out by arithmetic.
What is right to do can never be
found out by counting votes. And
yet people keep on making that
foolish blunder. They read in the
Kinsey Report that certain sex sins
are widely practiced among the
people interviewed by the author;
and leap to the conclusion that
what so many people Go must be
right. And so they conclude that
what 50 many people do can't be
wrong. They never do ask the
question: What does Cod have to
say?

U. S. Judge Questions
'ChotterIey' Mail Ban

NEW YORK. July (AP).-
A Federal Judge has questioned
the right of the Postmaster
General to bar the unex-
purgated edition of Lady
Chatterley's Lover" from the
mails.
Judge Frederick Van Pelt
Bryan reserved decision yester-
day on a plea to upset the ban,
which was imposed June IL.
Judge Bryan said he was
very seriously concerned"
whether Postmaster General
Arthur L. Summerfield had au-
thority to impose the ban on
the novel.
The Grove Press, which pub
lished the new American edi-
ton. claims the Summerfield
decision deprived the publisher
Fof the constitutional rights of
freedom of speech and freedom
Of the press.
The edition, the first uncut
version of D. H. lawrence
novel to be circulated in Amer
lea. was declared to be obscene
in the Summerf1eld decision.
Challenged by Club
The ban is also being chal-
lenged by Readers Subscription,
Inc, a book club.
The book is selling briskly
through bookstores supplied by
private shippers, who don't use
the mails.
The novel deals with a love
affair between an Englis h
gentlewoman, Lady Constance
Chatterley, and the gamekeeper
on her husbands estate. Her
husband is sexually impotent
because of a war wound.

THE verdicts should establish
beyond all doubt that any per-
sons regardless of race, color
or creed, can get justice in
South Carolina.
IT can't see how any different
verdict could have been given in
either case.
Sharpe was convicted OF
forcing his way into the home
Of a Marines wife and at
tempting to rape her while her
three small children slept and
her husband was away.
Publication of the name Of
the victim in a rape case is

up at his home an hour and-a-
half later. 80
