Ac- claimed as one of the greatest film triumphas to come from the director of ‘“‘Stagecoach” and “‘The age Home” featuring an outstand-/} ing cast including John Wayne, Barry Fitzgerald, Thomas Mitchell, Ian Hunter and other top players. The picture is packed with high drama, primitive emotion and thrilling action as it unfolds the story of a motley crew of sailors, revealing their lives and hopes in a ‘turbulent existence that leads ‘anywhere and everywhere but home. Key characters of the story are Ole Olson, a Swedish sailor with a dream’ of settling down on a farm; Driscoll, an Ivish sailor who is always ready for anything; Smitty, an Englishman who is try- ing to forget his past; Cocky, a philosophical messroom steward; and Freda, a girl of the London waterfront. Their story is unfolded in scene after scene of fierce action and tumultuous drama. The roisterous | party with native women off the | Caribbean shore; the tense voyage through mine-infested waters with a cargo of. dynamite aboard; the romance between Ole and a beau- tiful bum-boat girl; the surprise machine gun attack in mid-ocean by a flight of enemy planes; the dramati¢ revelation of Smitty’s past when the men accuse him of being a spy; the riotous farewell celebration for Ole in a London waterfront dive; the bloody free- for-all battle to save him from being shanghaied to another ship — all combine to bring the swiftly- paced story to its blazing climax. In what is said to be the finest portrayals of their careers, John Wayne-is seen as Ole, Barry Fitz- gerald as Cocky; Thomas Mitchell as Driscoll and Ian Hunter as Smitty. Others in the cast include } Mildred Natwick, Ward Bond, | John Qualen, Arthur Shields and Carmen Morales. Soldiers Are Killed In Korea Maneuvers SEOUL \#—Two soldiers of the U.

Without | the mental and spiritual prepara- tion as shown in today’s lesson Jesus told his loyal followers that “they will put you out of the syna- gogues.”’ While the disciples did not know that Jesus’ departure was near at hand, he knew it and saw fit to prepare these who were to ness. He knew too, that the church or synagogue, was an institution dear to every religious person. It is there that man can draw near to God in worship and commun- ion. It is there that we are sup- ported by a like fellowship and every conscientious Christian un- derstands the importance of the church in his life. It will be a ser- ious wound anc shock to be thrown out of the synagogue. But the disciples are to hear more. The time is coming when they will be persecuted and killed. The fact that these young men had been working side by side with other worshippers, all seeking to know the will of God, and then to be killed for their faith in a right- eous snd just God as revealed through the Man from Nazareth, seemed impossible. Yet today we have self-righteous folk with slight mental aberrations who think they are doing the will of God by cir- culating calumnious and libelous reports about their neighbors. It seems that Jesus’ prediction about what would happen to his followers was to extend beyond the imme- diate generation. Jesus demonstrates his friend- ship in the frank discussion of the future with his disciples. He em- phasizes that they did not choose him but that he chose them. For some three years now he has been to them a constant companion, sharing with them in hunger, his anxiety, his triumphs and proving himself indeed a friend. Great teachers have tried to explain friendship — Cicero, Aristotle, Bud- dha and others. Buddha explains the marks of a true friend as one who “guards you when you are off guards and does not forsake you in trouble; he even lays down his life for your sake; he restrains you from doing wrong; he enjoins you to do right;. . .he reveals to you the way to heaven.” (Suttana in Dialogues of the Buddha) Jesus gives a true description of real friendship in John 15:13-17. In the first place there must be a drawing together, a kinship of spirit. That means that friends will spend oneself for the other without considering the cost, giv- ing of his very life if need be. Ar-| istotle says that “Friendship seems to lie in the loving rather than in the being loved.” “It is the frank unhesitating opening of one’s heart to the other without shyness or sec- retiveness.”’ (Interpreter’s Bible). All of this Jesus was just now try- ing to reveal to his disciples. He —Samuel Johnson, was about to leave them and they |woulc be better would need this frank understand- ing and discussion. They were to jbe crucified at every crossroads and the pity is that our congre- gations are net free from such ne- farious practice. Jesus explained that it was nec-| essary for him to go away. While | the disciples had enjoyed his friendship and fellowship, they had | depended very much upon his Jead- ership. They would be lost now. | However he promised to send the | comforter, the Holy Spirit, which and more far reaching than his physical pre sence could ever be. Moreover had | he remained in the flesh his in-| fluence would probably not have| gone far outside Palestine. His going was important for the spread of the Gospel and it is now being carried into every nook and cran-| ny of the world. We remember the | good things zbout George Washin- | ton, Abraham Lincoln, but had they continued to live they would | have been berated, condemned and crucified ever more than during | their brief span of life. One of the most importent fac- tors in the later lives of the dis- ciples, and also in our own lives, is the working of the Holy Spirit. The New Standard Bible Diction- ary defines the Holy Spirit as ‘‘the inner workings of God upon the human soul.” We speak of it as a person and one of the Trinity but the three are one in that God through Christ and the Holy Spirit operates in the lives of men. That Spirit counsels, comforts and guid- es us in all the vicissitudes of life and definitely gives life meaning. This proved the supporting and sus- taining fotce for the disciples in their strenuous and dangerous life mission. The Holy Spirit is. an effective working force. It is effective on sin, on righteousness and on judge- ment. As it operates against sin it shows man the error of his ways. Certainly the rulers in Jerusaleni knew that the message Jesus had brought and the works of mercy he performed, were evidence of his sonship to God. When they put Jesus on trial it was not him being tried but the rulers themselves and posterity condemns the crucifixion and extols Jesus. Sinful men may scheme and cunningly connive to promote their wicked plans but time passes judgement on such be- havior and the Holy Spirit will con- demn all unrighteousness. It seemed that righteousness died on Calvary. Easter will see it rise again each succeeding year to battle against the forces of evil and the executioners of righteous- ness. The Holy Spirit may be den- ied but it cannot be killed since it goes on and on throughout the ages. As it pronounces judgement we turn to the Cross and ask the old question, who was judged on Calvary and who was condemned there? Jesus or his executioners? We may not understand Jesus’ going away any more than did the disciples. We should be patient for “When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth.” It may be slowly and gradually but eventually the truth will un- fold. Our eyes will slowly open and we shall see and understand.

Robert sold the pigs and bought two calves. The calves grew up and Robert sold them. He bought two Herefords.
