The Brazilian Venice
Pernambuco is called the Brazil
ian Venice because of its canals,
deepened to obtain filler for low
lands. The city is the easternmost
in South America, and the white
crested surf of the Atlantic never
ceases beating upon its shores. In
the old part of the city the streets
are narrow and the houses tall, the
idea being to obtain the maximum

BALANCE
In Bank Management
DEPOSITORS rightly expect their bank to
be conservative, for the sake of safety. Bor
rowers naturally desire liberal policies which
will enable them to secure funds readily.
Management must strike a balance between
these two points of view. The degree of suc
cess it achieves will determine the bank’s
value to its community.
The management of this bank will continue “
to consider the best interests of all—deposi
tors, borrowers and the community—in guid_
ing our services into channels of maximum - |
usefulness.

The “poor wise man*' j
ONCE, LONG AGO, "there wasf
a little city,’’ which was he-!
sieged by a great king, and
this city there dwelt a "poor wiset
man" who by his wisdom delivered!
the city. So we are told by the write*'
of Ecclesiastes, who further declares]
that "the words of wise men arcl
heard In quiet more than the
of him that ruleth among fools,” analj
also, that "wisdom is better tteamj
weapons of war” (Ecclesiastes SrJ-to
15, 17, 18). The latter statement is!

In many lands, and wiser way» oS?

that many are recognizing the fatite-'
Ity of war as a means of settling, na

The teachings m Christianity ha.vt
always been opposed to war, and yes.;
In the long centuries since Chrls&i
Jesus preached the gospel of pea***
on earth and good will to men, there
has been unceasing warfare. Th« 4
ages have advanced slowly In tire 1

the coming of the true peace to the
world when ho said of God (Mlcah
4:3), “He shall judge among many

There is no doubt that the way ciq
righteous conciliation Is one that re
quires great wisdom, not only tr» Sro*-'

affairs of Individuals. False belle? 1 *
of greed, competition, jealousy, domi
nation, and racial prejudice are some
of the causes of war, and these te»i~
Hefs must be overcome In Individual
and collective consciousness. The*
Apostle James, In his wise epistle*
writes (1:6), "If any of you lack*
wisdom, let him ask of God, thar
giveth to all men liberally, and up*-
braidoth not; and it shall be given

wisdom thus (3:17): "The wisdom
that Is from above Is first pure, ftltcuii
peaceable, gentle, and easy lo> tee?
Intrcated, full of mercy and gooci
fruits, without partiality, and with
out hypocrisy.” |
There 's a sharp distinction' tu~.
tween divine wisdom and the ways
and means of worldly wisdom. A char
acteristic of true wisdom is tha* it
is unselfed; It desires the good of all
mankind. It is compassionate, tol
erant, and forgiving. In "Scienc'if
and Health with Key to the Scrip*-*
lures” Mary Baker Eddy writes
(p. 275), "No wisdom is wise b»st
His wisdom; no truth Is true, no love*
Is lovely, no life is Life out the di

Our greatest need Is to lean* to
pray the Chrlstianly scientific prayer
that acknowledges the supremacy oi
