Islands, so small that most

The islets failed to escape the
eyes of the Census Bureau,
however. The Bureau counted
heads on the island last month,
and that fired up the local stu
dent leaders. The latter said
they intend to maintain per-
manent contact with the resi-
dents of the islands, sending
sanitary and cultural missions
there.
The Swan Islands lie 100
miles of the Central American
coast, northeast of Honduras.
They consist of three square
miles of Caribbean real estate.
The two islands, Greater Swan
and Lesser Swan, and a reef
called Bobby Cay. are the only
disputed United States posses
Sions.
Honduras says its claim dates
from the Spanish conquest of
the new world.
The United States has never
recognized the Honduran claim
and has claimed the islands as
American since 1898, when
Capt. Alonzo Adams, sailing out
of Mobile, Ala, came upon them
by chance. He planted a flag
in the name of his country and
his family and liked them so
much he moved there with his
wife and two children.
The islands we're named for
a 18th century pirate who used
them as his base.
There are 28 permanent
residents on the islands now,

The futility of trying to find an
answer troubled me as l drove
away. Soon / passed a roadside
field where man was doing some
late summer plowing. The up
turned burrows and the wrinkled
faces of those throwing garlands
into the sea recalled to my MEM
ory the Psalmist's words, The !
plowers plowed upon my back;
they made long burrows" And
here the pesky question recurs-
"Why?" Why does this man plow
his field?
The farmer guides his sharpened
iron share through sod and soil
that his ground may be more fer
tile. And God-retaining the i'm
agery of the Psalmist-plows our
backs with heart aches and griefs
that we may become more fruitful
in all that is good.
True, we may not like this; it may
be inexplicable to us that in Gods
economy for the world trouble has
large place. Fire makes iron to
be steel; crushing makes grapes to
be wine and grain to be bread;
sharp chisel makes rough stone to
be, statue of beauty, and as DR..
Hills writes it, supreme man
hood is raw human nature plus the
troubles that chisel out character"
And therefore, a sound philosophy
of life must seek a way to recon-
| cile happiness with trouble.
This is never easy. 1t can be ef-
fected only by believing that
! beneficient God rules the world
wisely and we'll and in His own
time will transmute the dross of
evil into the gold Of ultimate good.
Soujourner Truth possessed such
faith. Let me tell you about her.
Soujourner lived in days just
preceding the Civil War. We find
her in this incident attending q
rally of her own people then in sla-
very. Frederick Douglass Is ad-
dressing them. He pictures his
race, the Negro, under the lash of
their Observation-Disclosures, help
less, afraid. His words sting more
sharply than the whip under which
their bodies so often had writhed.
Darker ana darker grows the pic
ture Douglass draws. A moan OF
despair is heard and heard again.
All seems lost. 1t is then that Sou
journer Truth arises-a woman Of
God Every eye is upon her as,
stretching gaunt, black arm up
ward, she cries, Frederick, is God
dead?" And with these words an
electrifying silence falls upon the
crowd Then clouds begin to break
in their dark sky and a new light
of faith and hope comes shining
through.
Do trouble throuble you? Do
dark clouds hang low in your sky?
Be quite sure that behind the
clouds the sun is still shining" And
] it is still true-God is not dead.
