NO. 1 of a SERIES We might as well face it. You and I may live to see the world “blown to bits”; and ourselves with it! Fright- ening? The fact is—it is a time for fear; and yet, par- adoxically, also a time for hope! During the “Roaring Twenties,” and for years before, most folks thought we were on a spiraling road to world prosperity. Nice thought, wasn't it? But where now is that world that “every day in every as growing better and better i) Something startling has hap- pened. Now the words are “Fear.” “World Suicide.” Dr. Harold C. Urey, nuclear scientist, writes: “I am a fright- ened man. . ienti T know are frightened—frightened for their lives—and frightened for your life.” . An alarming turn of events, isn't it? Our world—yours and mine—is at the end of its tether; as H. G. Wells v “Ie Is grimly put it: “The \ end of everything “the we call life is close at hand and cannot End!’ be evaded. . . . The writer is convinced that there is no way out or around or through the impasse, It is the end. » That was in those early po: war days when re was not more alarming than the Atomic Bomb. Today, with no secrets to secure us, the dread Hydrogen Bomb knocks at our door. We have accepted its implications with a strange, suppressed fear. No less a man than Dr. Al- bert Einstein warns us it is entirely possible that the Hy- drogen Bomb can cause the “annihilation of any earth.” And other scientists and realistic thinkers concur. A time to be afraid? One who lived nearly two mil- lenniums ago, sighting down the corridors of time, saw that in these last days there would be “anguish among the nations ... ; men’s hearts fainting for fear, and for apprehension of what is coming on the world. For the forces which control the heavens will be disordered.” Luke 21:25, 26 (Weymouth). And what do you make of this: “But the day of the Lord will come as a.thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” II Peter 8:10. A time to be afraid? Yes and no. If your hope is in this earth and in human strength and wis- dom, Yes. If your hope reaches high- . er, No. For at the TIMG height of the crisis, to when men’s hearts are “failing them Look Up! for fear,” when all is darker than night—we shall ac- tually “see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great And when these things fl Ty. gin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.” Luke 21:27, 28, We might as well face it. It1s upon us. Exactly when, we can- not know, but we seem to be ap- proaching it rapidly—the end of the world! But the end of the world is the beginning of a glo- rious eternity!

A in the American way of life With the help of Joe and hundreds of others, ELECTRICITY now performs a multitude of time-saving, labor-saving Jobs i: the home and on the farm The use of electricity by average families has increased nearly four times since 1932. What does this mean? It theans that electricity is doing more and more of the hard work that American housewives and homemakers formerly did them- selves. It means making available more time for leisure . . greater comfort. It means increased health and enjoyment for Americans everywhere. ELECTRICITY has helped make Ameri- can homes the best and most completely equipped in the world—and in doing o, has demonstrated the ability of the American way of life in producing for peace, defense, and better living.
