EDWARDS For hundreds, possibly thousands of years Solomon has been called "the wisest man that ever "lived." If knowledge is power, then knowing how to use knowl edge is even greater than knowledge itself. Archi medes claimed that with a lever and a lulcrum he could move the world. Jesus Christ, with a cross on a skull-shaped hill, did move it. Walt discovered and applied the expulsive power of steam and set hundreds of wheela humming. Christ discovered and applied the expulsive power of a , new affection, and set millions of human hearts singing. Edison took Inert ' material, charged it - with energy and dispelled darkness with radiant light. Christ takes inert lives, changes them with His love and makes them "shine above the brightness of the firmament." Solomon died about three thousand years ago and is now but a name. Christ, greater than Solomon is still here though He died on a cross nearly two thou sand years ago. -' "I know not where the way mav lead, Or if the skies be blue or dim; v My hungry soul I. know He'll feed And guide my weary soul to Him." Amen. Three "Drunks," Reckless Driver Assessed Fines John T. Anderson, charged witli intoxication, forfeited ball of $20 and D.
