ST. JAMES LUTHERAN

WHAT MADE LUTHER GREATS 2
Hundreds of biographies Of the
great Reformer have been written
- in English, Latin, German,
French, Danish, Swedish, italian
Spanish, Russian, Polish, Lthuan-
ian, and other languages.-Why?
What was it that made Martin
Luther "an Atlas who lifted the
world upon His shoulders and car
ried 1t over into another age" as
one historian describes him?
1t was nothing but Luther's re-
discovery of the Christian Gospel
Luther taught nothing new. He
taught no doctrine which Christ
had not Taught. But he did insist
that men must teach and believe
everything that Christ had revealed
to them.
He insisted that all religion must
be based on the Bible alone. 2 Tim
othy 3:16. He insisted that man Is
saved by grace alone, that saliva
ton Is 1909 a free gift Of Gods
mercy. Romans 11.6. He insisted
that man becomes a partaker Of
this free salvation alone by faith
in the redemption of Christ. Gala
tians 2:16. And he insisted that
the individual Christian has direct
access 10 the father+heart of God
through Jesus Christ without any
human go-between. 1 Timothy 2:5
Peter 2:9.
That was the secret Of Luther's
greatness. He had rediscovered the
Gospel of Christ, which st. Paul
had said was 1.-THE power of God"
With that power on his side, the
success Of his tremendous under
taking was assured.
With that power on your side
your future for time and eternity
Is also sure.

Do Gold Cures
ReuIIv Work?

Forget about those fad cold
cures - you'l only lose your
money, not your cold, according
TO the Minnesota State Medical
Association.
Bach year S3 per cent OF all
Americans catch colds and spend
more than $500 million ON cold
and cough remedies" for relief
An this In spite OF the fact that
there Is no known drug which will
cure q cold.
Scientists recently announced
the development Of the first ex-
pertmental vaccine against one OF
the common cold viruses, with the
warning It would be years before
1t may be effective. The promoters
Of cold remedies" are not 50 cauti-
olls. Although no cold remedy can
do anything more than provide
temporary relief OF certain cold
symptoms, extravagant claims are
made. Many do not even relieve
symptoms effectively; and all cold
remedies, when improperly used,
can mask serious illness.
Painldrers, fever reducers, anti
hastamines, decongestants, vita
min supplements. antibdotics, garg-
les and ointments are all worth
while In curing other ailments.
They do little, II anything, to cure
the common cold, which is a nose
and throat infection caused by an
lInlmown number Of viruses.
The cold remedy racket owes
much Of It's success 10 the fact
that the cold Is a self-hmating dis

The best remedy for q cold is
"Grandma's Cure: stay home and

Danish Families
Adopt Negro Children
Born In GeFmonV

Copenhagen, Denmark: In an
article recently published in
magazine named Billet Bladet
which is published in Copenhagen,
Denmark a small European Coun-
try, the writer, Torben Buselxist
gave the following remarks con-
corning placement Of Negro chill
dren in homes in that country.
The article began with DO you
know Germany has a black con-
science? Do you know the black
conscience Is 5000 Mulatto chill
dren? Do you know that in orphan
homes in Germany, the children
have only a wish for a father,
mother and a home?
A hospital inspector, K. B. Bot
foldt and his wife are doing some
thing about this situation. They
have adopted two Mulatto girls
named Monica and Elizabeth. One
wants to be a nurse and the other
a teacher. The girls love the friend
ly atmosphere and the warmth Of
the people of Denmark and have
found they are no different from
other children in Copenhagen. Both
girls have an ivory complexion
much to the envy Of their COM
panions.
Mrs. Lita Botfoldt Is negotiating
with the German authorities to re-
lease more Of the children for she
has 200 persons vino are interested
In adopting them.
One Of the adopted girls Is al
lowed to visit the family she lived
with for eight years In Germany

Peace cannot be found outside of

The Illustration over the appar-
ent civil rights stalemate was re-
hected at Howard University last
week when DIR. Martin Luther King
was called upon 10 defend his phil
osophy Of non violence under at
tack by younger more impatient
leaders.
But the certainty Of DR.. King
in the "rightness" OF the nonvolent
method was not unanimously shar-
ed by top student leaders Of the
movement, who while using non
violent methods are disallusioned
by the hack Of widespread gains in
wping out Jim crow.

John Lewis, president Of the Stu
dent Non Violent Coordinating
Committee which has been spear
heading voting registration drives
throughout the South declared:

ture. Gov. Barnett and Gov. Wal

Lewis and Blair were two Of an

ed Cambridge, Md. Leader Gloria
Richardson that discussed earlier
''the impact of non-wolence on the

Robinson said he got some help
from a group Of older Northside
Minneapolis youths who were in
the crowd, calming down the
crowd. He stated that none Of the
crowd accused the police Of bru-
tality but just the same they de-
fled the orders Of the officers to
dsperse.
He stated he thought part Of
the trouble was due 10 insufficient
recreattonal outlets for large num-
bers Of st. Paul youths. The most
belligerent youngsters were those
of families Of more recent settle
ment in the city, mostly from
southern communities whom he

After the big crowd faded away
Howard on the way back to his
home was attracted by another
crowd Of about 20 young men. He
stopped his car talked 10 two de-
tectves who were observing the
situation from across the street
Howard walked over to the
group and found two men prepar-
ing to fight and talked them into
moving along. He finally had to
shame the group by telling them
that many Of their elders were
working day and night TO get them
equal opportunities and that their
conduct was multiplying every gain

Neither Howard or Robinson
would furnish the names Of youths
