Parables of
Jesus Brought

Editor's note: This is the second
of six Easter meditations in which
prominent clergymen discuss the
events of each day in the final
week of Jesus Christ's earthly
ministry. Today's author is a noted

GEORGES FLOROVSKY
Written for United Press
"Now in te daytime He
was teaching ,n the temple,
but as for the nights, He
would go out and pass them
on the mountain called Olivet.
And all the people came to
Him early in the morning in
the temple, to hear Him."
(Luke 21.37-38.)
In the days immediately
following His kingly entrance
into Jerusalem on Palm Sun
day, our Lord taught the mul
titudes, according to His rule
and custom, "in parables." It
is fitting this week to recall
these parables.
This main emphasis was on
vigilance. The day of decision
was approaching. Our Lord
himself was approaching the
climax of His ministry. He
was approaching His glorious
death, out of which He was
to rise as conqueror, as mas
ter of life. .
People Were Unaware
The people were dimly
aware of His kingly dignity,
of his lordship. They had just
greeted Him with a solemn
hosanna. But were they ready
to recognize the crucified as
a king, and to behold His
kingship in humiliation? Were
they strong enough to keep
faith and confidence in Him
in an hour of trial and test
ing? Our Lord told them of the
impending destruction of Je
rusalem, of the coming tribu
lation and sorrow, unheard of
"from the beginning of the
world." It was against this
background that our Lord
spoke of faith and salvation.
One had to watch and to be
lieve against the imposing evi
dence of an inevitable disas
ter. "These things I have
spoken to you that in me you
may have peace. In the world
you will have affliction. But
take courage, I have over
come the world." (John 16.33.)
There is no security in this
world, except one believes,
except one learns to discern
amid the toil and tribulation,
the signs and tokens of divine
grace and mercy, except one
learns to have peace in the
Lord. Yet, this peace, the
peace forever, comes through
the cross.
Lamps Go Out
One of the parables told of
10 virgins waiting for the
bridegrooms and the bride
They all were waiting. But
some of them were foolish, as
the Lord says. They did not
provide enough oil for their
lamps. It was late. And the
foolish virgins could not enter
xne weaamg cnamoer. it is
usually said that oil was a
symbol of good works. Yet, it
seems that the main emphasis
in the parable was precisely
on the lack of vigilance, the
lack of preparation. Even the
foolish virgins were waiting:
They were expecting the
bridegroom, they were antici
pating the marriage feast. But
somehow they were not rea
dy.They realized this too late.
"And the door was shut," our
Lord concluded: "Watch."
It is a timely warning. Are
not our own lamps also "go
ing out"? Are we not a'so so
often overtaken by surprise?
Is our faith strong enough to
stand the test and trial of af
flictions? Are we really pre
pared to taste the glorious
victory of the cross and res
urrection, to receive the mes
sage of the Holy Week as a
token and sign of peace and
victory?
Life of Man May Be Prolonged ITrusi Estate Forum
With U? nf Fominine HnKmnniheduled April 10
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York API Its still
may be possible to prolong
the lives of many men with-
o u t at the
same time
making life
intolerable by
treating them
with the ver
tiable queen
of female
body hor
mones. That hor-
Deios smith mone is estro
gen which accounts for the
more obvious female charac
teristics of body and mind.
It may well be the most im
portant one feminine chem
ical component which permits
women to live longer than
men.
For instance, women gen
erally go through life with
better - conditioned arteries,
lower blood pressures, and
and comparatively fewer
heart attacks than men.
It is well known that when
estrogen is given to men with
hardened arteries and men
who have had heart attacks, it
changes their blood chemistry
very much for the better.
But unhappily estrogen
feminizes them, most drama
tically by stimulating the dor
mant male mammary glands
into development. It also robs
them of normal masculine
sexual drives. Needless to say,
most men would rather die
of heart attack.
In past experiments with
estrogen in men, these un
toward and intolerable "side
effects" were produced by as
little as one thousandth of a
gram given daily for not too
many days.
But newly reported experi
ments indicate that as little
as ten millionths of a gram
daily will bring about the
much-to-be-desired changes in

SOVIET ENVOY DIES

Japan, died in Moscow Sun
day after a long illness.
MOTHER DASHED into the nursery when she heard her 5-year-old
howling. His baby sister, it developed, was pull

"Never mind," she coun

sister doesn't know that it
hurts you."
A couple of minutes later
Mother had to come back to
the nursery. This time sister
was bawling. "What's the'

blood chemistry. There is
reason to believe that mas
culine body chemistry . can
tolerate that minute amount
without being turned toward
the feminine.
The experiments were con
ducted at the University of
Southern California, Los An
geles, by a scientific team
headed by Profs. Jessie Mar
monston and Oscar Magidson.
The subjects were 26 women
from 48 to 82 years old who
had had at least one heart
attack.
Rapid Change
The women were eiven tab
lets containing 10 millionths
of i! gram of estrogen daily.
The blood chemistry measure
ments of all began changing
for the better almost at once
and were at their best six or
seven months after the treat
ment began. The women were
treated and observed for a
maximum of 30 months and
the measurements remained
steadily on the good side all
that time.
The scientists remarked, in
reporting to the New England
Journal of Medicine: It
"seems evident that very
small and very large doses
of estrogen appear indisting
uishable in their ultimate ef
fects on blood chemistry."
They will make a full report
on that when the work is
completed, including, of
course, the answer to the key
question for men: are there
still faminizing "side affects"

of a gram?

'How Do You Rate?' New
Morning TV Quiz Show,
Declared Fascinating
BY WILLIAM EWALD.
United Press Correspondent
New York (IP "How
Do You Rate?," a new CBS
TV morning show, is the most
fascinating quiz to bow in this
season.
The half - hour offering,
which made its debut Mon
day, is not concerned with
the total yardage of dental
floss consumed by male Peru
vians in 1932 or with the life
time batting average of Kiki
Cuyler or with the names of
all French premiers since
last week. .
Instead, the questions on
this daily quizzer are based on
the what-is-its that make up
aptitude tests. Thus, compet
ing guests were asked, among
other things, to build speci-

numbers while a phonograph

kle, button a button, snap a

ty test.)
Sense of direction
There were other questions
based on sence of direction,
mechanical ability, logical
reasoning, musical bent, and
judgment of time, all of them
posers that called for little
specialized knowledge.
The show, emceed painless
ly by John Reddy, nad its
faults, but they were the sort
of faults that can be shaken
out in time. The contestants
on the opener were a pretty
stiff lot and the losers were
knocked off much too quickly.
Too, there was a lot of bosh
about the significance of eacn
question. Thus, a successful
negotiation of a blocks test
meant, we were told, that
"you can probably furnish s
house or match your clothes."
Or, answering a comprehen
sion question about trick re
lationships within a family
meant that "people can't pull
the wool over your eyes.
All this aside, I would say
the most satisfying thing
abmi "How Do You Rate' is
its lack of interest in fact-
tvn nuestions. All of our
other quiz shows seem to have
a mania for collecting contes
tants strong on incidental
data As a result. I'm sure
many TV viewers have reach
ed the point where they are
now confusing an educated
man with a data-obsessed one
I'd class "How Do You
Rate?" not only as an enter
taining show, but the health
iest quiz to enter the field in
a long, long time.

Dog Ordinance To Be
Enforced, Chief Says
Jacksonville All dogs

sonville must be tied or oth
erwise confined to the yards
of their owners as of April 1,
according to Jacksonville Po
lice Chief Frank Carter.
The ordinance is in effect
annually during the garden
season, April 1 to Aug. 1, Car
ter said, and dog owners are
subject to a $5 fine if their
dog is found loose. Carter
-dded that the ruling will be
.strictly enforced.
French Workers
Walk Off Jobs
Paris OP) One-million
French workers walked off
their jobs today, tying up rail
road, gas and electricity serv
ices. Paris streets were filled
with unemptied garbage pails.
The 24 - hour, "warning",
strike hit first and hardest at
France's nationalized indus
tries. But workers in private
industries also planned to join
in large scale walkouts.
Union leaders said unrest
among French workers was
at its highest level since the
prolonged strikes of 1953.
God's Law Heals,
Speaker Notes
God's law understood heals
sin, sickness, and discord of
every kind, Albert Clinton
Moon, Chicago, told an audi
ence last night at the Medford
High school auditorium. He
spoke here under te auspices
of First Church of ; Christ,
Scientist, Medford.
The speaker, a member of
the Christian Science Board
of Lectureship, declared that
the message of divine love's
unlimited power and goodness
is available to all. Through
spiritual thinking and living
more people than ever before
are gaining true satisfaction,
health and harmony. Mr,
Moon spoke on God's Law
Heals.
The Bible shows, he said,
that Christ Jesus healed the
sick and sinning, wholly
through spiritual means, as
the evidence of the truths he
taught. Mr. Moon held that
the healing works of Jesus
were not miraculous, but the
natural results of the opera
tion of the ever-present law of
divine love. During the course
of his lecture he described
several healings through spir
itual means alone.
To bring the healing activ
ity of love into daily experi
ence, it is vital to attain a
loving, spiritually correct
sense of one's own true self
hood, he declared.
In closing, he called upon
the audience to prove the
power of divine love in
action.
