The only thing that keeps most of us from realizing our own possi bilities and of getting the highest satisfaction out of life is fear. There are very few human beings in the world who are not afraid of some thing. and as long as one is afraid of anything he cannot achieve per fect happiness. Primitive man must have lived in a state of almost constant terror. He was afraid of wild beasts, afraid of enemies of other tribes, afraid of the thunder and lightning, afraid of evT spirits that lurked in the darkness of the forest—of real dangers and of unreal dangers which he imagined Very few people in these days have the perfectly natural physical fears that surrounded the lives of our ancestors. But who of us has not seme mental fear, fear of something that has not happened but which we think may happen to ourselve: or our loved ones? In the past two or three years th< people of the United States hav been the prey of a new kind of feal They have been afraid that, in th popular phrase, the bottom ha< They dropped out of everything. Lave feared that never again would they have a job, that the factories that have shut down would nevei . start up, that they would never be able to sell the products of thei farms those and a thousand othe: fears which have no relation t< common sense nr reality seemed t< take posession of perhaps the ma jority of Americans. And that is one of the reasons w< have been so slow in coming back from the economic crisis. We hav been afraid to use our intelligenc and common sense and go ahead when everybody else was afraid ti do anything hut accept conditions a thov are and paint them, mentally much worse than they are. we see signs that this wldespret* fear is beginning to disappear. W< do not believe it ever had any real foundation, and we believe people are beginning to wake up to that fact. If we are right, and hope and heads off. For the great financial, crisis they had a yell. For a solu tion of the 11,000,000 jobless they had booze. Shame, shame on such a spectacle. While Rome burns our great statesmen yell for booze. This country is in peril and yet not one voice was raised in these conven- tions to save it. Has the country gone mad? While the ship of state flounders in the breakers of indus trial and agricultural despair out political leaders yell like a mob that that has lost its reason. Not one con- structive thing came from either •onvention; a lot of empty, senseless illy syllables. Nobody pointed a way o economic recovery. Nero fiddled vhile Rome was on fire; two grea' ational conventions yelled while nillions walked the streets jobless •nd hungry. History will recorc’ hese conventions to their everlast- ng shame. If this country is a oke. we nominate Jimmie Walker f it is for the corruption of Tam nany. we nominate Roosevelt; if 1 s for the international bankers. w< nominate Old Crow and if it is foi >eer, we nominate Budweiser oi Hitz, and if it is for the high gang ters, we nominate Mellon, and if 1 s for gutter gangsters, we nominati ’apone. Two great national con- entions met. yelled and went home nd the only hope given the hungr; ■nd helpless was beer. Ye gods, ye ods.—Blue Mountain Eagle.

The Golden Text was, “The Lord Is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall 1 be afraid" (P. . 27:1). Among the citations which com prised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: “For with thee Is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we seo light” (Ps. 36:9). The Lesson-Sermon also included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Sci- enee and Health with Key to the Scriptures”, by Mary Baker Eddy: “Life and being are of God" . . . . “God is divine Life, and Life is no more confined to the forms which reflect it than substance is in its shadow. If life w re in mortal man or material things, it would be sub ject to their limitations and would end in death. Life is Mind, ths creator reflected in His creations" (pp. 103, 331). 20 When Innocents Suiter Fake stock salesmen called "dynamiters" will make as short work of your savings as a hungry Hon would an innocent lamb.
