jo SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
Unselfish Acts of Abraham Serve as
Example for Today's Peace Seekers
: Scripture: Genesis. 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

choice; and that Abraham's un
selfishness and love of peace
were not impulses of the moment,
but expressions of his settled
character, was soon displayed in
the second episode, when Lot got
into trouble.
"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.
