O SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
Nation Faces, As Did Israel, Danger
Of Too Much Compromise With Evils
Scripture: Joshua, Judges, Ruth
By WILLIAM E. GILROY, D. D.
We are dealing in this lesson
with the time in the life of Israel
when; as we are told (Judges
21:25), "there was no king in
those days; every man did what
was right in his own eyes."
It ought to have been an ideal
state, for what could be sound
er and better than a democracy
in which every man did right?
However, what is right in man's
eyes does not always conform to
what is right in God's eyes, and
there was a great deal wrong in
Israel, as the records show. The
Bible, with its great realism,
suppresses nothing; and there is
much that makes sad and un
pleasant reading.
It is not pleasant, either in
the twentieth century, or in the
records of ancient time, to read
of the people of a whole com
munity being slaughtered, even
the women and children, and the
pregnant women (see Judges 21:
10, 11).
It isn't pleasant to read of
dancing women Iwing raided nd
c-.rried otf for ivcs, though the
women may not have objected.
There is much that is crude and
Lloody in these stories of settle
ment and strup!e in Canaan, as
there has been much of savagery
in all tribal and frontier warfare.
We might well turn in rcvul
tion. if fob were all; but tho
significance of the irtcords' of
that, despite the war-like and
cruel times, there was so much
of good, and of faith, aj3i of cour
age, and devotion to the com
Ctbon good.

Deborah, the noble woman who
judged Israel, strong in her good
I judgment, her courage, and the
force of character that made her
the self-appointed leader and ser
I vant of her people.
The perils to which the Israel
; ites, regaining a place in their
, homeland on their return from
bondage in Egypt, were subject
were not all physical. There was
; the constant peril to the moral
i and social life from contamina-
lion with the surrounding peo
; pics and their idolatrous practices.
Underlying the elaborate provi-
sinns of the Mosaic code was the
purpose -to protect the health, the
' physical well-being, and the
( moral foundations of the home
1 and community.
! Much that seems according to
, our standards ruthless and cruel
' was, rightly or wrongly, in the
nature of measures to prevent
j the moral submergence of Israel
i under the threat of idolatry. It
i is a ponr business to defend bru
' lality and the slaughter nf inno
i cent people; but there arc times
j and situations that call for stem
; and uncompromising measures.
' What lives and communities
j would have beon saved, if the
peaceful nations had had the vi-
sion, and the boldness, and the
uncomnromi) ing firmness to act
when the Japanese invaded Man
churia and the German; began
their aggression!
There is in our country today
a namby-pamby tolerance of
wrong, a compromise with evils,
that may well wreck this nation
unless a new spirit of righteous
firmness guid cjuc action in

HOME EXTENSION NEWS
.By JULIANNE WISE. Home Demonstration Agent-
Have you ever wondered how
to put life into a languid rug?
There is a way that one can re
size a rug at home.
The resizing should be done in
a room where you can leave the
rug to dry thoroughly at least
24 hours. Lay the clean rug nap
side down on the smooth floor.
Tack it at intervals so it will stay
straight. For the resizing mix
ture, use one-quarter pound of
flake glue and two guarts of boil-
ring water. Dissolve the flake
glue in the boiling water. To ap
; ply the glue, a brush is the best
I tool a white wash brush, a
whisk broom, or a large paint
brush. Then brush the glue mix
l ture on the back of the rug but
be sure to use it sparingly. If
the glue penetrates through the
back of the rug to the nap, it will
stiffen the nap so that the rug
will not T)e attractive. In resiz
ing a rug, a small amount of glue
. will go a long way.
Ready well in advance of the

The large audience manifested
its appreciation by frequent and
generous applause, every turn re
ceiving well merited approbation.
Attractively costumed and fast
moving, the production provided
pleasant entertainment from"' ev
ery standpoint of view and those
in charge of its direction,, staging,
lighting and costuming are en
tilled to share equally with the
performers in the commendation
that is due. . ... '
' Careful attention to small de
tails raised the show above the
level one usually finds in such a
presentation, and the smooth,
professional manner in which it
moved was one of the chief fac
tors contributing to audience en
joyment. .
While the entire program was
highly entertaining and much ap
preciated by the audience, there
were some outstanding features,
among them the opening number,
a ballet, featuring Patsy Clark as
premiere danseuse, It was beau
tifully costumed, and exception
ally well presented.
The four young "western" mu
sicians billed as. Log ' Scalers
Four, Jack Akers, Mert La Gore,
Jack Evans and Bob Akers, made
the outstanding hit of the eve
ning with the audience and were
forced to take a curtain call as
the result of their playing and
singing of western songs.
The "dance band modornc,"
eight members of the high school
orchestra who provided some
"hot" music, played as smoothly

have achieved national recogni
