CHARLES A. EDWARDS Jesus, therelore being weary with His Journey sat thus on the well," and that was nearly two thousand years after Jacob had digged the well, and be lore Jesus sat on the circle and drank of Jacob's well. Unnum bered thousands during that time had done the same. Jacob lived one hundred and fllty eight yerrs, and he has been gone nearly four thousand years, yet, the world is still thinking water from the well he digged. What Is the real business of life? Its big busi ness? To dig a well. To do something, to leave behind, sometl.ing that will serve in our Head, that will be a bless ing when we are gone and can no longer do. It's a thirsty world, "As the heart panleth after the water brooks." So pants the world's heart after soul-satisfying waters. Some body must dig in the desert placer, of the world's heart well of hope, of peace, of en couragement, of comiort, for bereaved souls. "Is that some body you"? Are you leaving something that will comfort hearts when yoir are Kom. Jacob did not dig his well for Christ, but for himself and his children and his cattle. Yet, one clay, Christ drank of it. Amen.

"They are wrong," he asserted, adding that the labor partv was " in the tradition" of all British freedom-loving movements and "in line" with "those who fought for the Magna Charta, and habeas corpus, with the Pilgrim fathers and with the signatories of the Declaration of Independence." Orderly World Wanted In following their different eco nomic courses, Attlee said, it is important that the U. S. and Britain "should 'understand each other and other nations whose In stitutions differ from our own."

With the bomb In mind, Attlee declared that the United States is "the mightiest power on earth." "And yet," he added, "America Is a threat to no one. All know that she will never use her power for selfish aims or territorial ag grandizement in '.he future any more than she has done in the past. "We look upon her forces and our own forces and those of other nations as instruments that must never be employed, save in the Interests of world security and for the repression of the aggressor."
