ChaDiern 13.15. 1 n wn.T.TiM r nn.nrtv r n Two stones of Abraham stand out from the crude and primitive times in which he lived, revealing such a high conception of human motives and action that they .speak to our own times clearly. The problem of world peace and security might be said to be that of catching up with Abraham. The first story is of the strife i between the men of Abraham land those of 1 his" kinsman; Lot, ! over. pastures and watering I places. That Abraham was no j coward or appeaser was shown Dlamly a little later, but he was a man of great unselfishness. willing to sacrifice his own inter ests if peace could bn maintained. In this SDirit he said to Lot as they looked Over the land, "You laltP tho loft anrl'T mill an in ihn ut jruu gu lu lilt; UIIU I will go to the left." "Lev there be no strife between me and thee and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be breth ren." . Lot might have' been a brother but he didn't reciprocate Abra ham's spirit of brotherhood. When he saw that the plain of the Jordan was well watered everywhere,' he chose what he thought was the better and more luscious country. Like all blind ly selfish men; who think only of their own profit, he made a bad MOHET WATCH Petit. "!

"Lot pitched his tent toward Sodom," without for a moment thinking of the trouble he was getting into when he cast in his lot with that wicked city. . The trouble began some time before the threat of destruction, and Lot's flight from the city..:. In -a war in which a number of kjngs were involved, the King of Sodom was defeated, and -Lot was car ried off a captive, and all his goods were seized. . When word was brought to Abraham, he armed his trained servants to the number of over 300, pursued the kings who had gone off with the captives and the loot; and partly by coura geous daring, partly by strategy, attacking by night, defeated and pursued them, ' recapturing not only Lot, but all the people they had carried off from Sodom, and all the goods. The man of peace could be a terrific fighter if he was forced to fight just as men of peace have been the most ter rible and efficient fighters of to day. Then happened a great and wonderful thing, full of meaning for a world seeking peace today. j The King of Sodom was grateful. He said to Abraham, "Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself." But Abraham re fused to accept as much as a shoelatchet, except only what his warriors had eaten or spent in their campaign. What a world this might be, if every individual and every nation concerned with the estab lishment of peace on earth were to say, both in words and in ef fect: "I want nothing for myself; I care only that all may get their just rights, and that what is best for all may be attained." It is selfishness on the part of individuals and nations that is most likely to defeat plans for peace. That is why the world needs to catch up with Abraham.

Vatican Bvclares Not Anti-Russian, Seeking 'Freedom' VATICAN CITY, July HI (UP) A high Vatican source said to day the Vatican is not pursuing an anti-Russian nolicv but only desires a minimum of religious liberty and permission for Cath olic clerflvmpn 4a rimmunicate freely -with the Holy See. . These quarters said it appeared Russia is willing to agree to the teiigious UDerty minimum out it "lukeWarm" an the subieet of free communications with the pope. This, it was said, stems from a Russian belief the Vati can is its political adversary. The Vfltirnn tfrmrrp fiairf this Russian belief was behind recent attacks on the Vatican by the Soviet press and radio. Other Vatican quarters, however, re garded the attacks as more in the nature of trial balloons. The Vatican is now onrrvtn? on intense diplomatic activity de signed to dissipate Soviet fears of the church's political inten tions. The Holv Sen will publish a statement disclaiming intentions oi backing the restor ation of old regimes such as that of the Hapsburgs ' in Austria.

Tricks 'Change' Shape of Nose By ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer The nose that strays from the path of beauty in length or size causes a lot of girls to ask "what to do?" So what-to-do to snip off ap parent length would be to wear a bang, kept level with eyebrows and to avoid a center hairpart. Pitfalls of dress to be shunned like the plague are pointed neck lines and hats that come forward into any kind of peak. To make a bulbous- nose look smaller, you can use two shades of powder, applying the darker tone to the sides to reduce ap parent width. Building your hair out from the brow with a pouf of soft curls and creating an op posing line at the back of your head with a chignon or a bruid, looped up and tied peruke-fash-ton, are other tricks for mini mizing the size of a nose. Wear hats with trick brims run out from the brow. Gimmicks that will always fo cus attention away from a nose that you don't like are eye make up and bright lipstick using the latter to make your lips wide rather than full.
