It takes a long time, as in the Pender- gast case, to nab political crooks, but even- y they are caught in the net. Pretty girls are more plentiful . than intellectual ones, and a grouch asserts that this is in keeping with the demand. Experts have determined that there are 26 distinct kinds of disagreeable noises. Our radio is capable of producing them all. The idea that any war will end civil- ization is to be termed absurd; also absurd is the idea that there ever can be a war to end all wars. In selecting our candidates for public office, we should not be so much con- cerned about where they stand but in what direction they are moving. When a nice young man and a sweet little girl (not necessarily little) get to- gether, under a Key West moon, we are willing to bet that they do not spend their time talking about the war. Astrologists predict a banner year in 1940 for business and work for everybody.

The first part of the resolu- tion is very simple, because it requires only the will, and the last part can be made so by eternal vigilance and pre- paredness.

This is a hard teaching | for most of us to swallow. We, |live in a world that seems to de- ;mand an “eye for an eye”, and a| {tooth for a tooth”, and yet, Je- {sus prescribes the spiritual prin- |ciple that we should let ourselves | be imposed upon. We should re- imember that the Heavenly. Fa- ther gives unto the just and the | unjust. In this time of war, when it is so easy to take sides with one fac- | tion or the other, the injunction of Jesus to “love your enemies”, is timely. “Love your enemies”, | he says, “bless them that curse !you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which de-; spitefully use you, and persecute you”. Jesus himself was the out- standing example of this teach- ing. Surely, Christians can do no less than their Master. In place of hate, he gave love; for| cursing, he gave blessing; for malice and scorn, he gave kind- ness.
