Shockproof Homes
Lesson (or July 15, 1951
EVERYBODY who begins a home
wants it to last. Nobody really
wants a temporary, makeshift
home. There have
been people who .
thought they wanted %
"trial marriage” but W* %
such persons did not m . /JzMB
want a home at all.

| Homes Without Marriage
LET it be said at once that while
most homes begin with mar
riage, and the normal home con
sists of father, mother and children,
1 there are homes without married
couples. The story, of Mary, Martha
and Lazarus in the New Testament
is the story of such a home.
Here were three grown persons,
two sisters and a brother, and they
had a good home; it must have been
a good one, or Jesus would not
have enjoyed going there as often
as he did.
There have been other homes
! which have blessed all under the
I roof, such as a cottage group in an
orphans’ home, or a group of old
people living together in one house
hold; even a boarding house may,
through the consecrated genius of
some one person, become a kind of
home, beloved and long happily re
membered.
But when all is said and done,
all these kinds of marrlage-less
homes, good as they often are,
take as their model the “nor
mal" home of parents-and-chil
dren. And this normal home
! begins with marriage. If the
| marriage Is permanent, the
home will be; if the marriage
drifts and wrecks, so will the
home.
• * *
| “Till Death. Do Us Part”
AS the present writer has said in
"From This Day Forward"
(a small book on the meaning of
1 the Christian marriage service):
"Only the Christian religion spon
sors the highest form of marriage
in the world. For Christian mar
riage is permanent. The state does
not demand so much, social pres
sure in most places will not demand
it, other religions have lower ways.
But the Christian ideal of
marriage is nothing less than
the union of one man and one
woman, for their lifetime.

No Endurance Test
'//CHRISTIAN marriage is not a
1, mere endurance test. If that is
1 all, it may be genuine, but not suc
l< cessful. Now a genuine cake is not
a pie and not a roast; but not all
genuine cakes are successful.
Marriage and a home at their
best can be a kind of heaven;
but who would want a heaven
that might evict its tenants any
1 morning?
On a windy day in a certain street
of houses hastily built for G.l.’s,
aiiy one might see the flimsy
shingles flapping in the wind like
so many sheets of paper. The young
couples who were slim-slammed
I into buying these houses have ai
j ready regretted it. No one want to
live in a house that the wind will
! blow to pieces. And no one wants a
1 home that will be shaken apart by
j the winds of adversity or the earth
j quake shocks of diappointment.
* * *
I The Heart of the Home
THE only real basis of a lasting
home is Jove. Everybody knows
this much; not every' one knows
what love is. Love is not mere sen
timent, and much more than emo
tion.
What Paul said long ago has been
I put by J. B. Phillips into modern
words:
"This love of which I speak
is slow to lose patience— it
looks for away of being con
| structive. It is not possessive;
| it Is neither anxious to impress
nor does it cherish inflated ideas
J of its own importance. Love has
good manners and does not pur
: sue selfish advantage. It is not
touchy. It does not compile sta
tistics of evil or gloat over the
wickedness of other people . . ,
Love knows no limit to its en
durance, no end to its trust,
no fading of its hope: it can
outlast anything. It is, In fact,
the one thing that still stands
when all else has fallen.’’*
A home where love of that sort
is at its heart, will stand every
shock of time.

Appeals Made
For Round-Up
Os Scrap Metal
Farmers, industrial leaders and
owners of automobile “grave--
yards" of Houston County were
asked by the Federal Govern
ment this week to cooperate in
relieving the present nation-wide
shortage of scrap supplies at steel
mills so that the national pro
gram of rearmament could be
carried out.
A concerted effort in ferreting
out scrap steel and iron from
plants, warehouses and other in
dustrial centers, from farms and
from automobile “graveyards”
and getting it moved into market
channels to save the nation from
a grave shotage at this time was
requested in an appeal received
here from Merrill C. Lofton,
southeastern regional director of
the U. S'. Department of Com
merce in Atlanta.
Inventories of scrap iron and
steel at the nation’s 200 mills and
foundries are “dangerously low,”
Mr. Lofton stated, and unless
scrap supplies are appreciably
expanded within the next four
months the steel production pro
gram faces a serious crippling
threat.
“Without sufficient supplies of
scrap steel, which is essential to
the production of new steel, a
lag in the steel program woul I
affect not only defense and de
fense-supporting industries but
would limit production of civil
ian consumer goods such as au
tomobiles, refrigerators and stov
es,’’ he added.
As evidence of the seriousness
of the situation, the Commerce
Department official pointed to the
fact that two large producers re
cently were operating with lesg
than a two-day supply of scrap
and that most other mills have
less than a two-week supply
compared with a normal 60-day
or larger inventory.
The present consumption of
scrap steel is the highest in his
tory, Mr. Lofton said, even
higher than in the peak years of
World War 11. The highest war
time consumption was 24 % mil
lion tons a year. Last year, 29%
million tons were used, and this
year the consumption is expected
to rise to 32% million tons or
more, an increase over 1950 of
at least 3 million tons, he asid.
“Houston Countians can help in
this worthy campaign by ‘spot
ting’ any scrap metal that may her

touch with the nearest scrap
