SHORT TALKS
By MARVIN HAST
SOCRATES HIMSELF
j Not many nights ago, as i strolled
through a city park, I chanced to get
into rather a warm dispute with three
gentlemen whom I had never seen be-
1 fore.
One was the proud possessor of a
large mounted telescope by which he
stood, inviting, in stentorian tones,
passers-by to take a look at the moon,
Saturn, and Jupiter for ten cents a
look. The other two, like me, were va
; grant patrons of this scientific man
! (for so he termed himself).
| planet He focused to another the instrument quickly from one we
| as as
i handed over the dimes, and while we
j curiously beheld the craters on the
moon, the rings around Saturn, and
jthe four moons of Jupiter, he poured
, into our ears a steady stream of infor
: mation about relative sizes and di:-
|
tances of the heavenly bodies.
The discussion arose when the gen¬
tleman of the telescope, with an air of
authority, announced that the moon is
239,000 miles distant from the earth.
This statement evoked from one of his
patrons the query as to how he knew
the moon to be that far away.
“I know it,” replied our scientific
friend, “because men who have given
their lives to science say so. You,” he
continued, “remind me of Mr. William
Jennings Bryan, ignorant of the truths
of science and doubting them.”
Just here I broke into the argument
to say that I was not so sure that Mr.
Bryan did not know anything about
science, and that I thought he was do¬
ing a great work in calling the people
to a reliance upon the Bible, rather than
upon science, as the fundamental fac¬
tor in religious thought and action.
“Well,” said the telescopist, “let me
ask you one thing? Do you believe the
first chapter of Genesis?”
“Yes sir!” I replied, as emphatically
as I knew' how.
He then as emphatically disclaimed
belief in the Bible, saying that he was
a student of, and an ardent believer
in, science. So saying, he sat down on
a bench near by, and left his three
patrons to conclude the discussion.
And conclude it we did in the space
of half an hour, during which time we
endeavored to persuade our seated
friend that it is just as reasonable,
and far more valuable as far as hu¬
man welfare is concerned, to have
faith in a God of power and love as
revealed in the Bible, as to stake one’s
belief on a body of scientific knowl¬
edge which in the end is hypothetical
and morally ineffectual.
When we walked away, our friend
arose from his bench, resumed his po¬
sition by his telescope, and continued
to tell his brethren about the moon
and stars which merely happened to
come forth into space and revolve
mathematically, as a result of chemi¬
cal combinations that somehow origi¬
nated from nothing.
CO-OPERATION
AS early settlers banded together for protection against Indians and wild life so
must we line up against the out of town influence that is a detriment to our progress.
They did not set out singly, the idea of co-operation prevailed, they pooled their am¬
munition and resources and fought conditions—the outcome being SUCCESS. That
is the way our country was started. That is the way the seed of our great nation
was sown. What co-operation and organization has done in the building of our great
nation, so it will do for each town or community individually.
MORAL:—The spirit of co-operation is the greatest city builder known.
