THOUGHT FOR THE DAY—
KNOW YE NOT that ye are the
temple of God, and that the
spirit of God dwelleth in you? If
any man defile the temple of
God, him shall God destroy; for
the temple of God is holy, which
temple ye are.—I Cor. 3:16-17.
WHATEVER IT WAS Hess didn’t
get it done.
LIKE THE CHARACTER in one
of Shakespear’s plays, whatever
Hitler does he must do it quick¬
ly. J »
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT found
just the right word to describe
those who sunk he Robin Moor
—pirates. A pirate is an interna¬
tional outlaw.
ON LAST MEMORIAL day theta
were 1700 veterans of the Civil
war living and drawing pens¬
ions- The Civil war ended 76
years ago.
THE WAR HAS moved its scene
of action into the very cradle
of Christianity. Tanks are al¬
ready thundering over the Da¬
mascus road over which Paul
made his memorable journey
nineteen hundred years ago.
A NATION WIDE Gallup poll
shows sentiment 4 to 1 favor¬
ing a law forbidding strikes in
defense industries. Labor has its
radical and communistic ele¬
ments to thank for the rising tide
of sentiment against it. Labor
should show its independence
and purge itself of its undesir¬
able and un-American elements
before the whole cause i s brought
into ill repute.
THE 8POKTS FANS of this lo-
cality are divided on the recent
Conn-Louis bout One group con¬
tends that if Conn had kept aut
of the reach of Louis during the
last three rounds he might have
won the decision. His going in
and attempting to slay Loui3,
they contend, lost him the fight.
The other group contends that
Louis knew what he was doing
all through the fight. He wanted
to give the big audience their
money’s worth and when he got
ready to finish off the fight he
stepped in and finished it off.
THERE IS ONE CLASS of people
whom we believe seldom, if
ever, receive praise or the cred¬
it due them. They go about
their work month after month
and year after year giving gen¬
erously of their time and talent.
They are seldom rewarded and
seldom received a word of praise.
Sometimes we think they are
seldom appreciated. We refer to
the Sunday school teacher. Many
Sunday school teachers spend
hours preparing the lesson to
teach Sunday. When they appear
before their classes, instead of
the twenty-three that should be
there, whose name are on the
roll, six or seven show up. One
or possibly two of the seven
who are present have given the
lesson any thought or study. And
so it goes, 52 weeks a year, year
after year. Of course there is
e satisfaction that comes to
Bob Jones Comments
On Here and
Hereafter
The writer would like to sug¬
gest to his readers that they read
the first five verses of the third
chapter of Second Timothy. The
inspired writer tells about the
conditions which will preva.l at
the close of this a f> e just before
the second coming of Christ. The
writer does not contend that the
presence of the conditions de¬
scribed mean that Christ is com¬
ing soon, although he is rather
inclined to believe this. He does
mean to say that the conditions
described in the verses will pre¬
vail just before our Lord return'.
Jesus Christ is coming back a-
gain some day. No man knows
when He will be here. That is a
secret which was locked in the
bosom of the Father. But He is
coming sometime. Just as cer¬
tain as He went away—just that
certain He will come back again.
His first coming was a literal
coming. His going, away was a
literal going. His coming back
The writer is able to count
.will be a literal coming back,
something like on e hundred and
fifty prophecies which have been
fulfilled. The prophet said that
Jesus would be born of a virgin.
This was literally fulfilled. The
prophet said that He would be
sold for thirty pieces of silver.
This was literally fulfilled. The
prophet said that He would be
betrayed by a friend. This was
literally fulfilled. The prophet
said that a potter’s field would
be bought with the price of His
blood. This was literally fulfill¬
ed. The prophets say that Jesus
Christ will come back again.
This will be literally fulfilled.
The question is often asked,
“What good is the doctrine of the
second coming of Christ? I am
going to die before a great
while.” Death is not the second
coming of Christ. It is the very
opposite. When Jesus comes a-
gain He will raise the dead and
translate living saints. Almost
every Christian grace in the New
Testament is mentioned in con¬
nection with the second coming
of Christ. If we are exhorted to
be patient, it is because Jesus is
coming soon. The New Testament
states specifically tha this doc¬
trine has a purifying influence
in the heart of a Christian. When
we celebrate the Lord’s Supper,
we are to show forth His death
until He comes. Early Christians
who were looking for the return
of our Lord turned the world up¬
side down and were so loyal to
Him that they were willing to
give their lives for the Savior.

It WOULD be pretty rough on

LUCK?
Are you superstitious? Sports¬
men as a whol e are. They de¬
pend on various phases of luck
to bring them results. Indians us¬
ed to carry tokens—“Medicine”,
they called them—for good luck
and protection against evil spirits.
Most of us do the same thing,
know a sportsman who wouldn’t
think of going hunting or fishing
without having a game-bird fea
ther stuck in his hat. He tells
himself that it is just useless
superstition, yet he’d never Teally
expect luck unless that feather is
there!

Recently I tried to haul five

I think I’ve found it. It’ s a-
bout a three-purpose affair, not
only keeping your minnows alive
but also acts as an ice box for
cold drinks, food and to bring
your fish back in. The “refrig¬

it keeps them alive all day on

MR. DOE
You’ve heard of hens crowing,
women wearing men’s suits, etc,
etc. Well, it seems menfolks have
the same trouble with their
weaker sex in the animal king¬
dom, too. Antlered doe, a f f ea ^
of nature, are killed occasionally
in. Texas. One weighing nearly
100 pounds and having pronged
antler s was shot by a San Anton¬
io hunter in the Hill Country
last season. He had the head
nounted.
