Something Magic
About 'Graduation'
By CHARLES GOE
Pastor, Ash Street Baptist
Church
There is something almost
magic about the word "grad
uation.” It means that the
days of high school, or col-
lege or grad
ua t e school
are over ana
a new world
awaits the
young people
who have
com pl e t e d
their train
ing.
Some are a
little older.
some are younger, some step
fresh into a world for which
they are unprepared, but yet
much has been accomplished
in order to reach this high
hour.
It means two things: One.
they have completed a
course; second, they are
facing a new future. We are
in a world of change, change
theologically, change eco-

nomically, change in com
munications and change in
travel. The world that we
have studied in the books of
yesterday will not be the
same even two years from
now. I am told that 90 per
cent of the world's scientists
are living today and that
there has been more change
in the last fifty years than
in all the history of mankind
before. So there are some
admonitions that we seek for
the graduate.
As they have laid down
their pen and pencil, as they
have pushed aside the type
writer and the notebook, as
they have placed on the
shelf the textbook of yester
day it is easy to forget these
past events. It is easy to
place in the back of the
mind the long hours of study
and anxiety before a test.
I want to challenge each
one who graduates to face
the world with a new excite
ment: a new joy; a new in
tensity; a new enthusiasm.

This can make a new world
for each individual.
There are three things
that we need to consider as
we step out into life. One.
we must keep learning. Sec
ond, we must keep loving;
third, we must keep living.
These seem to be obvious,
but yet, the temptation for
each one is to stop learning
We have accomplished all
that we need to know, but
the tragedy awaits the young
person or the adult who ap
proaches life in this way.
! There is a need to keep on
j studying, taking new courses,
i developing new techniques
I and reading new material:
1 helping to catch the drama
of life with its fulness.
j We must also keep loving.
What do we mean by this?
The social world of which we
are a part demands that we
' love one another. There are
! many people who have ac
complished much with books,
but have accomplished little
with their relationships to
others. Jesus's technique,
and it could be called that,
for working together was
this. "Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself after you
have loved God with all your
heart, soul, strength and
mind.” And he said, "Do unto
others as you would have
others do unto you.” The
world awaits you as you keep
loving Third, you must keep
living. A famous play on
Broadway was "Stop the
• World: I Want to Get Off."
: But this can’t be. Jesus said.
• "I came that ye might have
: life and have it more abun
; dantly.” Really life comes to
• its fulness in Him. Let me

find what is so rare
as a day in June?
Then, if ever,
conic perfect days...”
JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL 1819-1891
Not too hot. Not too cold. That’s the June
day perfection you enjoy every day with a
flameless electric heat pump.
This comfort conditioner replaces sticky
summer heat with a frosty-morning tingle.
Pampers you with sunshine warmth on raw
winter days. Eliminates those bothersome
bet ween-season seasons.
You set the thermostat once. Then forget
it. Automatically, the heat pump reverses
its cycle from cooling to heating, as needed.
Operates economically. There’s even a
special rate for total-electric customers. And
budget billing means your electric bill is the
same amount every month.
Want June-perfect days? A tlameless elec
tric heat pump gives you 365 of them every
year. Except leap year. Then you get 366.
Cull us about our 10-year heat pump service plan.
