We Iteur a great deal today about the need for social justice Never in his tory have so many people been thinking, seriously about the real ization of a better world as are thinking about it today. Yet for the most part we appear to lie off on the wrong foot. The idea is ’ widespread that we can establish a better world on a purely secular : basis. Today’s lesson refutes such a ! notion by holding up the most perfect social order that the world has known, and definitely show- ; ing that this community and all the benefits which attended it were the outgrowth of Christian faith. Four things the newly con verted- Christian believers “con tinued stedfastly” to do. First of all, the converts “con tinued stedfastly in the apostles’ teaching . . .” Christian teachings are not vague abstractions about God; they are very definite reve lations of his character, his right eousness, and his will regarding man’s destiny. Christian life begins with a de termined effort on the part of tl*e believer to find out what Chris tian teachings are and to practice them. The disciples “continued sted fastly in fellowship . ” The word "fellowship” and the word “common” (“had all things com mon.” verse 44) come from the same Greek word. Fellowship occurs when people share life utterly with their as sociates and receive gladly wha* their associates share with them We read further that the dis ciples “continued stedfastly . . . in the breaking of bread . ” This breaking of bread manifested it self in two ways: in the agape or love feast—which was partly what we would eatt ..today “a church social” and partly a religious service—and in the celebration of the Lord's Supper. Holy fellowship of Christian be lievers with one another and the observance of the Sacrament still remain central in the Christian faith. Last of all, the believers gave themselves “stedfastly” to prayer Continued, earnest prayer always was and always will be the sine qua non of healthy spiritual life These four religious practices enumerated in verse 42 constitute the spiritual foundation upon which every church and every abiding social order must be built. Permanent human benefits do not originate in a secular society. Sound religion is the basis of all sound living. __ | If* \W ;»l VII. | tty ( littrltMir I ( oilier I Filial exam* will In gin on Wed mwhiy, •Ion. 18, and will continue through Friday, the i!7th With vacation* past, and i egistruliuh nearly completed examinations will be the biggest student* win i v for awhile. * * • The Student Council has pro posed a Student Court composed of seven judges, four of which would be elected from the Student Council by Council members The other three judges would be elected by the students from stu dents at large. One of the prin- j cipal clauses which seems to be meeting considerable opposition j by the students is a part of Sec- j tion 5 which states that in pres entation of charges and evidence. “The person making the original complaint does not need to be I present at the session of the Court unless he desires to be.” The members of the Council are find ing out the opinions of the or ganizations which they represent \ These views will decide the votes j of Council members on the Student Court proposal at the next meeting. There will be a choice of accept ing the proposal as it now stands, of accepting the proposal only on condition that the constitution bo amended or altogether rejecting the ideal of having a Student Court. I hope that when the students make their decisions or this matter, they will not fall into the fallacy of believing that any thing with any number of de fects, is better than nothing. Wr ought to have a good Student Court if we have any. Little avail would come of adding a handi capped Student Court to the long list of student organizations. Named to Seoul Committee PRAIRIE VIEW. Tex. (ANP) President E. B. Evans of Prairie View A. Sk M. college, has been named a member of the Inter Racial Service committee of the Boy Scouts of America for tne ensuing year, it was announced last week by Arthur A. Schuck of New York, chief scout execu tive of the Boy Scouts in America. Dr. Evans has been active in the scout movement for nearly a quarter century. The first state wide camp was established at Prairie View. Principal W. R. Banks named Dr. Evans general chairman. The attendance grew from less than 50 to near 600. Camp Strake filled this need on a permanent basis and the Prairie View camp was relinquished as a statewide camp. LET DONLEY STAHL CO 1331 N St B_UR—druggist -- Jess Williams Springs .ROSE MANOR !

Hardest hit so far among West Africans by the devalua . tion of the British pound ster ling appears to be students and prospective students of educa tional institutions in the United States. Not only do these stu dents have to pay about 30 per cent more for tuition and other fees but transportation rates from West Africa to the United States have also increased.
