God’s School.”
True Education and Our Schools
Rev. Paul D. Sister
The sight of tiny tots and
young men and women on their
way to and from our schools
again after the summers va­
cationing has brought with it
a few stinging questions. How
well are our schools doing their
job of passing on the ac­
cumulated stores of knowledge
and wisdom to the oncoming
generations. Is our educational
program geared to lead our
young people out into fuller,
richer living. Or, is it, as some
are protesting, preparing a fu­
ture citizenry for a thought-
controlled materialistic, slave
state?
In our effort to keep the
church and state seperate we
have reached the present situa­
tion where religion is practically
banished from our school rooms.
The consequence is that our
children have come to believe
that the spiritual heritage has
little or no value for them.
In effect we are saying to
them, “We want you to know
how to produce bigger and
better automobiles, more com­
fortable and streamlined homes,
more heathful and cheaply pro­
duced foods, and more powerful
atom bombs with which to an­
nihilate our enemies; as for
the technique of living abun­
dantly and peaceably together
At the
Churches
Special Speaker Due
The members and friends of the
First Christian church are holding
“Community Night” Fellowship
dinners this fall on each third
Friday evening. The first of the
dinners will be held Friday even­
ing, September 16, at the church.
The program will consist of an
address by a well-known speaker
and special musical numbers. The
kick-off speaker will be Rev. Hu­
bert Sias, pastor of the Mallory
Ave, Christian church in Portland.
He recently completed directing
we’ll leave them to chance and
the churches.”
Some of our educators, rightly
disturbed by Education’s failure
to induce powerful enough in­
centives to right living, are
saying anew with the author
of The Proverbs, “The fear of
the Lord is the beginning of
wisdom.” They are saying, in
other words, that if we want
our schools to produce better
citizens for the tomorrows, they
will in some way have to be
geared to the dynamic forces
of revealed religion which
makes the knowledge of God and
his will for men the most
important quest of our learn­
ing. We in our own community
need to find some way to link
the schools and the churches
together in an integral effort
to produce the results that
neither can achieve alone. We
owe this to our children. In
fact, unless we work together
to see that they learn true wis­
dom, we shall wake up to the
sickening fact some day that
everything else we have pro­
vided for them has been snatch­
ed away by a cruel despot. This
question, then, lifts its head
above the others as school
begins again, "Just how much
do we really want our children
to have true education for
abundant living?”
of the construction of the new
building at Mallory Ave.
He
comes to us recommended by
many years of experience and a
very successful pastorate in Port­
land. He is a busy man and one
whom we should all desire to
hear. The dinner will begin at
7:00 p.m. as a planned pot-luck
with meat loaf, scalloped potatoes,
vegetable salad, pie and all are
urged to bring one item with them.

11 God Is God
If God is God why does he
not put an end to wars? Andy
why does he let drink and pros­
titution spread until heathen tribes
far inland are rotting under the
white man’s disease? The answer
is that this is not the day of the
new world-order. This is the day
of salvation. Now for 2000 years
since Christ, God has been calling
out a people on whom to spend his
love in the ages to coms. When
the last soul is brought in to fill
out the roll-call of the saved,
Christ is to return and sweep out
the present world-order and set
up the new day.
So today the saved await the
appearing in glory of our great
God and Saviour, the Lord Jesus
Christ, who gave Himself for us
to free us from every iniquity and
to purify for Himself a people who
should be His own and active in
good works. Know your Bible and
see Titus 2:11-14.
Stand on God’s word that the
blood of Jesus Christ, God’s oniy-
born Son has utterly and wholly
cleansed your life-page. Then get
your marching orders from the
Bible. And die, to self and look
to Christ for strength to live the
new life.
The pupil of the eye be n t —re
smaller with age — consequently,
the need for more lights a* birth­
days pile up.
