While Professor Phillips agrees
that fertilizer and lime can be put

er remedies are called for, Phillips
says. A weed killer containing dis
odium methyl arsonate or ammon-
ium methyl arsonate should be used
on crabgrass after it gets a foot
hold in your lawn. If you don't
get started by the time the crab
grass is 2 inches high, you may as
well resign yourself to having it
the rest of the summer.

This will take about two weeks or

says a so pound bag will do about

Sister OF Boxer Joe Louis Here
I'm Behalf OF baha'i Faith

hand of the ignorant and made
them bold and arrogant-Reli-
gion is a light and an impreg-
nable stronghold for the protec-
ton and welfare of the people of
the world-should the lamp of
religion be obscured, chaos and
confusion will ensue, and the
lights of fairness, of justice, of
tranquility and peace cease to
shine"
Empires have fallen, regimes
have been destroyed and ma
tional isolation has come to an
end and even more definitely,
superstitions have obscured the
fundamental reality, the world
is darkened and the light of re-
ligion has waned. This darkness
is conducive to differences and
dissensions; rites and dogmas
are many and various; therefore
discord has arisen among the
religious systems, whereas, re-
ligion should be the source of
love and unity, the development
of praises worth qualities and
agreement.
But nowhere today is there
agreement, on the individual, ma
tional, or international levels.
What has religion got to say
about all Of these menacing and
destructive situations tn a
threaten man today.
1t is this: science may create
comforts for the betterment of
our material condition; but it
cannot create love, justice, bro
therhood, and the peace that is
so much needed and sought by
people everywhere. When a
scientist has the love of God for
his people everything he does,
makes for the betterment of liv-
ing for people. When states
man has the love of God for his
people then justice everywhere
prevails; and this is caused by
the guidance Of religion.
An unregenerate Humanity
rushes not in the race of arms,
but towards death and destruc-
ton. Today you see a worn and
so tried humanity cropping in be-
wilderness trying to find peace;
or even one thread of hope, while
deep inside the conscience tells
them that they have strayed too
far, and stayed too long in that
ever forbidden pasture of self
ish desires.

Mrs. Eulalia Barrow Bobo will

Mrs. Eulalia Barrow Bobo will
speak in Jackson Friday, Sep
TENDER Is at 8 p. m. at 102 Mi
nerva Street. She will give a
talk on "World Peace Through
World Religion.
Mrs. Bobo who is on a circuit
teaching trip for the Baha'i
World Faith throughout many
of the southern states, which
will include her home state of
Alabama where she and her
famous brother were born, al
though she lived most of her life
in Detroit, Michigan. She was
once appointed to the State
Board of Cosmetology by the
late Governor Murphy. Present
ly she resides in Beverly Hills,
California and is majoring in
psychology at Los Angeles City
College.
Mrs. Bobo believes that only
by mankind's return to the Di-
vine Laws of the one true God,
as spoken through the mouth of
his Holy Prophets can it find
the peace that is so desperately
needed in this hour of world
peril. She feels that the past
and the future are united in the
present. The present must be
interpreted in terms of; what
we were, what we are, and what
we desire to be.
Some of the things Mrs. Bobo
says is that today as we stand
at the summit of past civiliza-
tions. We are the sum total of
all that has gone before. How,
says she, did those before US pre-
pare for what was to come
through successive stages of de-
velopment until the present
time? Did not they have to con-
ceive and accept larger meas
ures of progressive laws? Have
not mankind gone from a family
unity to tribal unity? Has he
not advance from City State
unity to Nations What could
possibly be mans purpose here
except to unity and go forward
into a larger and better civil
zation. Did not God create male
and female and tell them to re-
plenish the Earth? What other
way could it have been done
except little by little, each stage
encircling a larger area with
more people until finally there
were no more earth to be discov-
cred? What we need now is
World Peace.
National rivalries, hatred, ra-
cial animosity and intrigues can
only be replaced by understand
ing and cooperation. But TO un-
derstand is to know what is the
cause of so much unrest in the
nations of the world. Might not
it be, because the very nature of
man is to progress. Could not
this be the time spoken of in all
Holy Books, as the time when
mankind would be united in one
fold under one government.
She remembers reading where
Thomas Jefferson, one of Am
erica's foremost statesmen, once
stated that he did not believe
that one generation could find
another and all others in sue
cession forever. He believed the
Creator had made the Earth for
the living and not the dead"
Tolstoy, one of the worlds great
historians also wrote: that the
world was looking for solution
to it's problems. He thought the
/ Turkish prisoner, Baha'u'llah
held the key.
Baha'u'llah, the Proph e
founded of the Baha'i World
Faith says Religion is the
greatest of all means for the
establishment of order in the
world and for the peaceful con-
