hope he would livel We kept
our faith strong and continued
to pray all during that time.
"On the fifth day, more X
rays were taken. They showed
no growth tissue in our baby'S
lungs whatsoever We were al
lowed to take him home, but
the doctor asked us to return
at the end of the week for a
checkup to be sure.
I'VE did return, and he told
us our sons lungs were as good
as anybody'S and there was no
sign of weakness.
Our boy is now four years
old. He is in good health and is
normal in every way. There is
no evidence at all of any bad
effects from the growth!
MY husband and give God
the glory and praise Him for

his special school one day. The
man reproached himself be-
cause he had allowed his busy
day to be interrupted with a
job that could be done by just
anybody" AS soon as they
started, Jimmy asked, Are
you God" The mans answer
was short when he replied,
mo, I'm not God"
Jimmy continued, "Do you
Work for God?" Again the
mans short answer came, No,
l don't work for God. But
why do you ask these ques-
tions?" The little boy replied
when I asked my mother who
was going to take me to school,
she said she didn't know but
God would take care of ito
A long silence gave the man
time for reflection, then finally
he addressed the boy saying,
Sonny, I've never really
thought much about working
for God before, but from now
on you can be sure that I will
work for Him in every way I
can"
We all have many opportuni-
ties to work for God every
day. Do we take them or leave
them? God has need of
you and He needs you right
where you are now. He has in
HIS plan the work that will
not only fulfill His pattern, but
the work that will bring you
added joy and happiness. His
way is not difficult, for the
light of Spirit goes before you,
making clear and perfect the
way.
Today makes the difference.
What kind of life are we
choosing for ourselves? We
have a golden opportunity to
be "about our Fathers bust
ness and we can TAKE IT OR
LEAVE IT."

committee members, the pro-
posal was defeated and the
Civil War began.
Mr.. Lincoln chose war rath-
er than compromise with the
extension of slavery.
If we had man of Mr.. Lin
coins stature IN the White
House today, he would insist
that the Supreme Courts
school desegregation order be
enforced.
There would be no compro-
mise, no delays, no defiance,
no token arrangements, no eva
sIons. He would insist upon com
pliance with all deliberate
speed"
Mr.. Lincoln could have used
his Republican members on the
Crittenden committee to effect
a compromise and temporarily
delay an inevitable war.
MR.. EISENHOWER uses his
members in Congress to help
postpone enactment Of an eff
fective civil rights act
and to delay enforcement of
the 18th Amendment, guaran-
teeing all citizens the right to
vote and the IA Amend
ment guaranteeing free use of
unsegregated public institu-
tions. !
Lincoln's conclusion was that
this nation could not exist
half slave and half free. Ii
he were in Mr.. Eisenhower's
position today, he would add 1t
can't exist half segregated and
half free.
Mr.. Lincoln used his influ-
ence in Congress to help abol-
ish slavery; Mr.. Eisenhower
uses his to handcuff labor and
bottle up the civil rights bill.

Take It.Leave II"
BY Theresa Jones

Il have chosen thee" What
comforting words are these!
They tell us that God cares,
that we are needed, and what
is more important in any
mans life than to feel needed?
God has need of every individ-
ual to express Him. It is
through man that Gods ideas
are carried out. He has given
us strength, courage, power, a.
bllity, and understanding to do
His Work, and has not cast
us away. There are many paths
to God. Some ofeus go direct
~ to God through prayer, but
others, not so familiar with
the direct route, travel a
roundabout way that eventual
ly leads us to His plans and
His work.
Jesus said, Eye did not
choose me, but I chose you,
and appointed you that we
should go and bear fruit, and
that your fruit should abide;
that whatsoever We shall ask
of the Father IN my name, He
may give it to you.' Nearly
every moment of the day we
are making choices. What are
we choosing. Are we choosing
thoughts and words and ways
that will form habits of truth
and light? Do we realize that
our choice today may influence
our lives for years to come?
Let us consider them carefully
and reject the false, the
thoughts that will bring us
pain and trouble and instead
let us accept the good.Let us
think and believe on the good
things, knowing that we are
choosing after the likeness and
teachings of Christ, and ex-
pressing Him on earth.

:: WORTH REPEATING :.
Needed: A Man Like Lincoln

Few present-day students of
history ever heard of The
Crittenden Compromise. On
the eve of the Tooth anniver-
sary of the Civil War period,
DR.. Isaiah A. Woodward, pro-
fessor of History at Morgan
State College, does well to re-
fresh our memories.
His interesting treatise,
Lincoln and The Crittenden
Compromise" was published
in a recent issue of the Negro
History Bulletin.
Sen. John ]. CrIttenden was
a Senator from Kentucky, in
terested in preventing seces-
sion of the Southern states,
no matter the cost.
In 1860 just before Abra-
ham Lincoln took office, Sena-
tor Crittenden made his pro-
posal in an effort to postpone
the imminent Southern rebel
lion.
If the Crittenden Compro-
mise had been accepted by
Congress, many historians now
believe that the rebellion would
not have taken place.
THESE ARE the main points
of Sen. Crittenden's proposal
which came before the Con-
gressional committee:
1. Congress shall have no
power to abolish slavery
in places under its exclu-
sive jurisdiction;
2. Congress shall have no
power to abolish slavery
in the District of Column
bia;
3. It shall be the duty of the
Federal Government law
fully to pay full value of a
fugitive slave to any own
err who applies for it;
4. No amendment shall be
made to the Constitution
of the United States which
gives Congress any power
to abolish or interfere
with slavery in any of the
states by whose laws it is
permitted.

One of my greatest joys is to
receive a letter from a mother
telling how God has miracu-
lousy healed her child.
When Jesus heals a little
child, older people are deeply
moved, and | am no exception.
AT the birth of our son, "
writes mother from Indiana,
the delivering doctor and the
hospital staff noticed that the
boy was having difficulty in
breathing.
They put him in the hospital
nursery and treated him for ex-
cess mucuS. But he failed to
respond to treatment and got
steadily worse.
TO help diagnose the trouble
numerous x rays were taken.
The pictures showed a fibrous
growth in our baby sons lungs.
He was given oxygen to keep
him breathing, but the doctor
said his condition would be
fatal within "a to As hours.
Since my husband and l had
strong faith in Cod and trusted
Him to heal our boy, we imme-
diately requested Our friends to
pray with us.
During that first night, while
| was so worried over our baby,
God met my faithl He assured
me that everything was going
to be al right.

all territory south of said
latitude, slavery is recog-
nized and shall not be in

Mr.. LINCOLN'S written re-

to five Republican members of
the Senate committee.
Mr.. Lincoln wrote: Enter
