rights. The great Galilean
was utterly unruf1ed, no mat
ter what men did to Him.
Even when reviled, He reviled
not again. 1t was only when
arrogant, selfish strength
tried to strangle or exploit
weakness that the hot flame
Of His anger leaped up.
What a conf1agration Of
wrath lights up the sky Of
the centuries in a sentence
like this: Whose shall cause
one of these little ones which
believe in me to stumble, it
would be profitable for him
If a great milestone should be
hanged about his neck and
that he should be sunk in
the depth of the sea-" That
is no namby-pamby sugges-
ton that perhaps if we knew
all there might be something
in the offenders background
to explain his crime.
No wonder a contemporary
preacher, weary of the tame,
timid complacency of So
called good people, declares:
Il am through preaching ser
mons on how to control the
temper. The modern church
member has no temper worth
talking about"
Yes, to be sure, there are
those who will go off into
a spasm of wrath over a
collar button which rolls un-
der the bed, proving the per-
versity of inanimate things.
But the same person will re-
main calm as the summer
dawn at the slavery and
slaughter of innocents. There
are persons and nations
which still hope that in the
present global struggle against
chains, slavery and goddess
materialism, they can be neu-
tralists. The only hope that
the polluted stream of modern
life may be cleansed is an cpl
demic of righteous anger that
will sweep the world.
Long, long ago Plutarch
set down an eternal truth:
Anger is one of the winds
by which the sails Of the
soul are filled" Supine in
difference to wrongdoing is
always a sign of moral de-
terioration. Criminals be-
come braZen, wrongdoers
walk innocently, rascals take
possession Of high places, un-
til the good af1ame with in
dignation arises and sweeps
them from the seats of power.
Wanted: Millions of Amer
leans whose aroused anger
flames against villainy
wherever entrenched! Wanted
everywhere: A large capacity
for moral indignation!
To be saved from weak
designation to the blatant
and rampant evils we de-
plore there is need to offer
daily as a fervent prayer in
days like these a petition first
framed by the myriad
minded William Shake
speare: Touch me with
noble anger"

SPIRES OF THE SPIRIT
Noble Anger
BY DIR. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS
Chaplain of the United States Senate

There Is no test more re-
vealing than is suggested by
the question, What does it
take to make you mad?"
There is enough rotten in
Denmark" to make millions
of decent citizens violently
angry. Good Americans these
days ought to be aflame with
righteous indignation. Rack
cts and rottenness under the
Stars and Stripes, moral
standards and customs ac-
cepted by those whose only
concern is Can I get away
with it?" cry to high heaven
for Augean stables to be
cleansed.
But too many apathetic
souls do not want to be both
cred. They prefer perfumery
as the defense against nox-
ious smells. They want no
active part in the clearance
Of moral slumS. They are
more interested in some silly
advertising rhyme than they
are stirred by a challenge
like Maltbie Babcock's-
Say not the days are evil
Uho's to blame?
And fold the hands and ac-
QuieSce-O shame!
Stand up, speak out. and
bravely, in Gods Name
With such a summons as
that ringing in our ears we
see goddess Marxist maraud-
ers who have captured the
mainland Of China and
who are committing horrible
crimes against a great people.
Just north Of the amazing
democracy of South Korea
these killers are still poised
in a war never yet ended,
ready to pounce when they
dare. In that north concen-
tration camp they are train
ing spies by the hundreds
and sending them, loaded
with money, to inf1ltrate the
free south.
This is the regime which
murdered thousands and
thousands Of American boys.
Yet there are placid religious
leaders whose attitude is
more like purring kittens
than roaring lions, whose
nerve Of indignation seems to
have atrophied, and who are
suggesting that the Free
World go into partnership
with these same bandits who
have Just despoiled Tibet.
Such an arrangement would
be on the same moral level
as taking in murderous bank
robbers as members of the
banks board of directors in
the interest Of all concerned.
Jesus taught that anger is
a fire and, like fire, must be
kept within control. 1t can
be a british and childish
thing, utterly undisciplined.
But righteous anger is an
inevitable ingredient of q
truly noble life. 1t is i'm
possible to write the record
Of the One Perfect Life with
out including in the narra-
tive of the Gentle Jesus,
meek and mild" the scenes
when the blast Of His scorn
was so hot that it frightened
and scorched those upon
whom 1t fell.
When we read Christ's de-
nunciation Of the Pharisees,
His words are like a volcano
belching forth molten lava.
Christ knew that there can
be no great love without the
capacity for a great wrath.
Anger is only an ignoble
thing If 1t is set of simply

An advertisement in The
Star so years ago pointed to
a new facility for railroad
passengers. 1t appeared on
March 4, 1910, and said: The
new station Of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad in New York
City, to be known as the
Pennsylvania Station will
add a great deal to the COM
fort and convenience Of the
travelling public. 1t is located
in the center Of the hotel,

What was believed to be
labor's first general strike
was called so years ago in
the wake of tagging negotia-

streetcar walkout. In a story
from that city on March 5,
1910, The Star reported:

that no disorder attended the

life without his hands but after
many trials he has become able
to use his hooks" and is a gov
eminent employee earning a living
for his family. Their daughter was
eight years old when the twins
were born.
Mary kept asking to see the
baby and was told she could see
her twins soon. She was not pre-
pared for this blow and went into
shock when told she had given
birth to twin daughters who were
physically fine but both were total
ly blind!
John helped Mary through this
period of their lives. Today the
twins are five years old and when
Mary brings her family to church
her children behave better than
the average. Their little girl 8,
helps with the twins and they
listen to the music and seem to
enjoy being in church.
They both play the piano. They
played at concert at the church
not long ago. They are being
taught to lead as normal a life
as they possibly can and they can
dress and undresS themselves
They play and sing as do other
children their age. Mary is seeing
to it that no one makes them pity
their lack Of vision. She wants
them to live and enjoy life despite
this handicap and she and Jehn
have succeeded.
Because of all the troubles they
have had this little family seems
closer together than most families.
They have many friends who enjoy
being with them because they are
so happy and while with them you
never once think of their handi-
caps. They have learned to live
with them. That is the secret, at
least it is one of the secrets. The
other is that they really love each
other.
After the first shock was over
they began planning for the girls.
They attend a school especially
equipped to take care of them.
They are both doing well in their
classes and can play the piano,
sing and recite and do what the
average five year old does. They
play and laugh and their laughter
makes you happy.
Mary and John are about 80
years old and they have borne
many trials and tribulations for
their age. Few young people have
had to endure their heartaches
but they are so grateful to be
alive that they have learned to be

LIES ARENA


When we stand in Lies broad arena,
Though battle-scarred and sore
From the many blows we have taken,
We should always come back for more.
For Life, though formidable opponent,
Is a terrible buffer at heart;
She strikes her blows both hard and fast.
The worst of them at the start.
Each blow we survive makes us stronger,
Each punch in the jaw makes US tough;
That is how our metal is proved;
That is why Life treats us so rough.
When Life sees we will not be conquered
But laugh in her face and stand,
She then becomes friendly and docile
And gives US a helping hand.
