Trenton Sailor Has Impressive Record ABOARD THE USS MELVIN IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC— Japan’s surrender terminated al¬ most continuous fighting in vir¬ tually every major naval en¬ gagement in the Pacific during the last 18 months of the war for Claude L. Michaels, 22, sea¬ man first class, USNR, son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur C. Michaels of Trenton. Michaels, who first saw action from the decks of this 21-ton destroyer, took part in the seizure of the vitally important stepping stone bases to Japan—Saipan, Guam, Tinian, Leyte, Luzon, Iwo Jima and Okinawa. During those operations, his ship destroyed a Japanese transport off Saipan and “splashed" six planes while repelling numerous Kamikaze attacks off Iwo Jima and Oki¬ nawa. * His battle record also shows participation in the historic bat¬ tle for Leyte Gulf, one of Ameri¬ ca’s greatest naval victories. On that momentous occasion, his destroyer executed an unsup¬ ported night torpedo run on a large Jap task force in Surigao strait and assisted in sinking an enemy battleship and a de- ' * THE ROAD IS CLEAR HOURS SAVED *n New Time-Saving Schedules 4 i ON MANY TRIPS Give Faster Better Service through turn operating to the speeds. normal re¬ ^ cl Many long-planned improvements are being mad* • *« Bid one df fS| first is a return to normal running time for the big bluo and whit| Super-Coaches.

The Churches of Christ Salute You ROMANS 16:16 With Sound Doctrine INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC IN THE WORSHIP On this subject, as well as all others regarding Christian wor¬ ship, the New Testament is the real and final authority. It, when followed, will direct aright. Unity is in Christ and His word. When the Bible is set aside, the doors of human speculation are opened wide and confusion reigns. We propose, there, to give the New Testament teaching on church music, and to follow that with quotations from the repest of Bible scholars—not that such scholars make authority, but in that they corroborate the Scrip¬ tural evidence. “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (Rom. 10:17). Again, “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (Heb. 11:1). Faith then, while depending on desire, yet is the child of evidence or dem¬ onstration. A thing is said: it is rejected or accepted according to the supporting evidence. Thus, one can have saving, Biblical, extent that faith is founded extent that that faith is founded on God’s evidence, the Bible. Without that evidence, or word, there is no faith. God must have spoken before we can believe what He says. The New Testa¬ ment does say sing, but not one time does it instruct to use the instrument in church music. One can believe, or have faith, in what God said but not in what he did not say. Suppose a person does not respect the silence of the New Testament. He is pre- sumptious. Has he sinned? Yes! Why? He used the instrument when God said sing; thus, could not have done it “by faith.” “Whatsoever is not of faith is sin” (Rom. 14:23). Following are statements from some of the most illustrious of Biblical scholars. Those are of¬ fered for our consideration: “Musical instruments in cele¬ brating the praises of God would be no more suitable than the burning of incense, the lighting up of lamp, and the restoration of the other shadows of the law.”—John Calvin, one of the originators of Presbyterianism in commentary on 33 Psalm. “I have no objection to the organ in our chapel provided it is neither seen nor heard.”— John Wesley, Methodist. In his comment on Amos 6 5 Adam Clarke says: “I believe that David was not authorized by the Lord to introduce that multitude of musical instruments into the Divine worship of which we read; and I am satisfied that his con¬ duct in this respect is most sol¬ emnly reprehended by this pro¬ phet; and I further believe that the use of such instruments of music, in the Christian church, is without the sanction and a- gainst the will of God; that they are subversive of the spirit of true devotion and that they are sinful. If there was a woe to them who invented instruments of music, as David did under the law, is there no woe, no curse to them who invent them, and introduce them into the worship of God in the Christian church? I am an old man and an old minister! and I here declare that I never knew them productive of any good in the worship of God; and have reason to believe that they were productive of much evil. Music, as a science, I esteem and admire: but instru¬ ments of music in the house of I abominate and abhor. This is the abuse of music; and here register my protest against ail such corruptions in the worship the author of Christianity” ... Charles Hadden Spurgeon, one the greatest Baptist preachers all time, preached for 20 years in the Metropolitan Baptist in London, England, to 10 thousand people every Sun¬ Instruments of music were used in the tabernacle. says, “We might as well by machinery as praise by “Our church does not use instruments, as harps, to praise God withal, that she may not seem to Thomas Aquinas, Ro¬ Catholic, AD 1250. “There is no command in the New Testament to use instru¬ ments of music in worship.” Silas Eureka College.
