critical leaders of His day
without realizing that he is
in the presence of a wrath
like belching, molten lava?
So that If anyone with no
name for the strong man Of
Nazareth but Gentle Jesus,
meek and mild" assumed that
the Christlike solution for
solving any situation is, just
having been slapped on one
cheek, to meekly offer the
other, he ought to be assured
that He is looking at only a
partial Christ.
against the evils these gro
tesque dictators represent.
AS one has pertinently sug-
geSted: 1T is easier to shoot
at a villain than to get at the
villainy. 1t is easier to kill
bad men than to build a
good democracy" II only the
same explosive emotions
which are so violently ex-
pressed against the villains
could be directed against the
poverty and exploitation and
sheer human misery that
breeds the badness, what a
powerful healing, redemptive
force our anger could be-
come!
To be ChriStlike is never
to be neutral or placid when
evil is having its malignant
way with individuals or with
society. In the face Of deadly
evils which today, even in
our America the Beautiful,
are eating at the very vitals
of what we call our civiliza-
tion, an ominous symptom Of
these times which are out Of
joint is that too often those
who ought to fling the full
weight Of their righteous
wrath against all sinister
forces that set out to debunk
the Ten Commandments and
the Sermon on the Mount
gaze at rampant iniquity
which no longer arouses their
indignation.
The social convulsions Of
the past volcanic decades
have produced gangster lead
ers who do not even pretend
to take seriously what the
civilized world regards as
decency. There are many who
would not agree that the way
to deal with such buffoons is
to give them a chance at
the other cheek" but who
yet display no burning wrath
This is no time to turn the
other cheek as we battle
against the blasphemies of
communism and the iniqui-
ties entrenched in our own
social system. But with our
eyes upon the picture of an
angry Christ let US lift the
prayer: Make me the faith
full follower of that One who,
looking not at His own hurts
but at the harm that was be-
ing done to others, was like
an army with banners.

so Years Ago

The baseball season ended
sourly so years ago. 1t looked
like an ugly scandal would
result from the hot race for
the American League batting
championship between De-
troit's Ty Cobb and Cleve-
lands Napoleon Lajoie. The
popular Frenchman. Lajoie,
was credited with eight hits
in a season-ending double
header against the st. Louis
Browns. The Star of Octo-
ber 10, 1910 pointed out that
Lajoie was well-liked in st.
Louis, while the scrappy Cobb
was not. Seven of Lajoie's hits
were bunts which st. Louis
infielders f1elded lackadai-
sically, and the. eighth was
a flyball which an outfielder
appeared to "misjudge pur-
posely." The Stars sports
page growled over the Incl
dent for a week, before Off
cial statistics, released on
October 16, showed Cobb had
added another jewel to his
batting crown with an aver
age of .384944 to Lajoie's
.3S4084. Cobb thus won a
new automobile, a prize that
went with the title then, and
Lajoie was permitted to ac-
cept one, too.

SPIRES OF THE SPIRIT
The Other Cheek
By DR.. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS y
Chaplain Of the United Senate

In speaking Of a certain
blatant dictator who is war
ring against all that makes
America other than a clean
er sty, a correspondent asks:
I'm spite Of all rebuffs and
insults, why don't we just
turn the other cheek?" In
that question there is the
implication that such an at
titude is essentially Christian.
We behold the incarnation of
brute force, a part of whose
technique is to deceive. to
plot mischief, to murder and
butcher whenever such tao
tics fit into his diagram Of
world conquest. Here is one
who welcomes any softness
on the part of his enemies
as a symptom Of weakness
and, confronting such an in
dividual and the monolithic
system for which he is the
spokesman, we are advised
not to use the pebble Of free
dom in the sling of truth,
making sure it reaches a
vulnerable part Of the ex-
posed face, but, rather, to
advance against such a foe
with no weapon but that of
turning the cheek to take his
blow. This procedure of a
spineless pacifism is evident
Iy based on the teaching Of
that one who spake as never
man spake, as He said: IF
a man smite thee on one
cheek, turn to him the
other"
Now we contend that this
Interpretation of the pre-
cepts of the greatest of all
teachers is not warranted,
and that it isn't Christian.
In this instance Christ was
talking about some personal
affront. He evidently is say
ing that in a matter between
two individuals turning the
other cheek is in the same
category as "a soft answer
turneth away wrath" But in
the presence of evil, Christ's
own reaction was very differs
ent. To be sure it is recorded
of Jesus that, even when con-
fronted with hostility, gra-
ciouS words proceeded out Of
His mouth. But never must
it be forgotten that we also
read Of Him, "He looked
round about on them with
anger"-and, we might add,
with no sign at all Of turning
the other cheek.
The fact is that Christ's
denunciationS never h a d
their roots in selflshness.
When men abused Him and
lied about Him, He was ut
terly unruffled. When he was
personally reviled He reviled
not again. But when injus-
tice and cruelty reached out
to main others who were
defenseless His anger rose to
the fury of a tempest.
1t becomes more and more
clear that in any study Of
the words Of Jesus we are not
through with Him when we
dwell on His sweetness and
light. At times He was ten
deH at other times He was
terrible. The blast of His
scorn could be so hot that it
frightened and scorched
those on whom it fell. AS a
keen student of the Christ
of the New Testament has
put it: ANY darkening of the
world by cruelty or craft
brought His soul to it's feet,
flery-eyed and defiant" Who,.
for instance, can read the
denunciation of the hypo-
