A person who looks about
♦ur world today with any hon- '
eity knows that this is not the
best of all possible worlds. We
eannot even use the many ad
vancer in culture as excuses to
rover up the horrible evidences
•f man’s inhumanity to other
men. This present age knows
aome of the vilest atrocities be
ing carried on in the name of
justice and honor. Those to
whom the position of trust has
been given have desecrated
that position of trust by tak
ing bribes to overlook things
that are being carried on that
ought not to be carried on. And
that denotation is not only be
ing carried on outside our coun
ty or community, it is within
our county, and our neighbors
are a part of it, and it may
w»ii be that you are unknow
ingly a part of it. As a voter

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS -
fLargast Coraraga Any Waakly In Th* State)
have you demanded a candi
date with integrity, or have you
cynically said that you would
i vote for the lesser of the
crooks? As a citizen have you
demanded that justice be meted
I out equally to all regardless of
race, color, creed or social back
ground or material position?
The demand for justice by the
| Almighty today is no less ne
cessary today than it was in
the days of Amos. Perhaps
with the expansion of our
world and its peoples, the de
mand for justice is even more
1 necessary. If that justice is to
be a reality it must begin with
the conviction and destruction
of individuals, and the action
of those same individuals. The
place to begin is around our
i dorstep. Let us not be afraid
■ to expose dirt as dirt, and then
proceed to clean it up. Yes. this
world needs justice, but justice
will never come about with
complaints. It will be brought
, about by the conscientious ac
tion of Christian men and wo
men whose religion means more
to them than their name on a
church roll book. By: Rev. Bill
! Griffin.
