"Caleb"
Caleb is one of the heroes in whose
life and character no defect or blem
ish is found. He is the one man of
whom it is said "He wholly followed
Jehovah, the r God of Israel." ' He
grew old, graceful1, joyful and happy;
the reward of a consistent, consecrat
ed life. In "Who is Who in the Bible"
we have this characterization of
Caleb: "One of the dozen men sent
to spy out Canaan; a proselyte of
the tribe of Judah. He was content
to serve well and live quietly. He
was rewarded, with Joshua, by be
irg spared to enter the Land of
Promise. Forty-five years later, he
appears again, asking Joshua for a
land grant in the hills of Hebron. He
got it and with it a war. The 'sons
cf Anak' vexed him so sorely that he
offered his daughter in marriage to
the man who could drive them out.
Hi3 brother, Othneil, got the girl.
A child of the future, looking always
into Canaan and never into Egypt.
Caleb was forty years ahead of his
times. That's why he was in the
minority group."
The twelve spies were twelve
princes cf the twelve tribes of Israel,
selected for their high standing with
their tribes. For forty days they
go into the country some two hun
dred miles north, beyond the bounds
of historic Palestine, to the planes of
Coele-Syria, returning through the
ancient city of Hebron. To prove the
fertility of the land, the spies brot
ba'k with them specimens of the
fruits, figs and pomegranates, and
especially a mighty cluster of crapes
so large that two men had to carry
it between them. These grapes came
frcr.t E.-rhol, a valley near Hebron.
The explorers exhibited this fruit
and declared that the land flowed
with milk and honey, exciting their
listeners to the highest pitch of
caRor anticipation.
Had they only stopped there!
But a dark picture was uppermost
in their mind. So far the twelve
agreed. Now, ten bring in the major
ity report that goes on to describe
the country and the people. They
saw the Ncphilim or Big Men the
tons of Anak, and they developed a
"grasshopper complex." The result of
this report was so disheartening on
the people that they cried unto Moses
and wept that night, wishing that
they might have died In Egypt. So
can and do men today discourage oft
the plans and purposes of God and
Godly men by their pessimism and
faithlessness. Gcd Eays: "Go for
ward," and men say, "We can't."
But our hero says, "We can!" (Let
the Bible student read Numbers 13
for the detailed report.) Subsequent
histcry proves that majorities are
not always risht. Instances could be
cited to verify this. ,

Lesson Study!
By L. Neitzel, Murdock, Neb.
The majority says, "We can't;"
the minority says, "We can." The
majority won out, but at what a ter
rible cost For thirty-eight years
longer theywill jstay in the wilder
ness, until ...all; who left, Egypt 'of
20 years and over, had died, except
Joshua and Caleb. They led a new
generation into the promised land.
A year for each day that the spies
spent exploring tne country was
meted out to them.
After the conquest of the land',
which took seven years, came the
division of the land, which was ac
complished to the satisfaction of all
the people. Now comes Caleb and re
minds Joshua of a promise Moses
made Caleb forty years before. Joshua
remembers it. "Moses, the servant of
Jehovah," had made the promise and
God honors his servant and the prom
ise is fulfilled. Thus has God at all
times rewarded true and faithful
service. If man today would whole
heartedly serve God like Caleb did,
what a rich experience would be
theirs in their service of God. Caleb
attributes his longlivety to Jehovah.
There is no doubt that holiness is
the best of all health preservers. This
is not to decry hygiene, for hygiene
is part of that complete following of
Jehovah that Caleb practiced. At
85 years of age his strength is as
good as when he was 40; so was
Moses at 120.
Caleb dees not ask for an easy
job, rather the reverse. The hill
country, the fortified cities, the
giants, are his choice. Most men
would have chosen like Lot did a
low country, well watered and plenty
of pasture: bu see the result. . (Gen.
13:10, 11; 19:22-28). Joshua bless
ed him. The general called down on
the heroic old man the blessing of
the Almighty; and we may be sure
that Joshua's prayer was heard by
Gcd, remembering the long period he
dwelt in the tent-sanctuary, never
leaving day or night. Caleb gof He
bron; how he captured it is told in
Joshua 15:13-15. Hebron is situated
in a valley on a slope 3,040 feet
above sea level; it is 19 miles south
southwest' of Jerusalem. Its popula
tion at present is about 10,000 most
ly Mohamedan.
Caleb received his reward after a
long wait (45 years). We, too, may
have to wait through long, weary
years for our reward. But to patient
faith the reward is sure.
Caleb was a lad of mettle
Caleb was a man!
Ten spies said they couldn't;
Caleb said. "We can."
Tea men babbled of the giants,
chattering; like apes;
Caleb told of Milk and Honey;
Caleb showed the grapes. -
Stoutly he trod the Jordan
"Over w must go!" :
Stoutly then he marched and
shouted, Down fell Jericho.

Confer on Wheat Production Plan.
Dean W. W. Burr of the agricul
tural college and members of his
staff returned to Lincoln last week
from the wheat conference in Kansas
City with several new developments
in the wheat adjustment acreage
plan as it Avas explained to them by
M. L. Wilson, under Secretary Wal
lace of the Department of Agricul
ture. The Nebraska group, had been
in conference for three days with
. .. I
s-milar groups from nine winter
wheat erowihi? stated ariS Ittfep-t
. v r- " ' t '
resentatlves - of the Department. of
Agriculture.
The next step in the plan so far. as
Nebraska is concerned, will be the
holding of district conferences of
county agents and with vocational
agriculture teachers. These confer
ences can be held. Burr said, while
Secretary Wallace and his assistants
are deciding upon the final points of
the adjustment program. W. ri.
Brokaw as director of the extension
service, will have charge of the con
ferences and with the educational
program regarding the plan in Ne
braska. Previous statements regarding the
voluntary features of the plan still
hold, Brokaw said Thursday morn
ing. County agents, vocational agri
culture teachers, and farm leaders
will be asked to help the extension
service give accurate and unbiased
information to farmers about the
plan. Each individual farmer may
then decide for himself whether or
not he can afford to take advantage
of the plan.
The amount of the benefit payment
to farmers, the percentage of reduc
tion desired, several details of the
contract which will be offered to
farmers, are yet to be worked out and
announced by S2cretary Wallace and
his assistant, Mr. Wilson. These, an
nouncements will probably not oe
made until after Wilson completes
this series of regional conferences be
ing held in Kansas City, Spokane,
Fargo and Columbus.
Asked Thursday morning about the
effect of the rise in wheat prices on
the adjustment plan, Brokaw said the
rise perhaps lessens the interest of
somo p?ople in the plan, but that
farmers should not lose sight of the
parity feature. Other prices arc bound
to go up as wheat and other grains
rise in price and a bushel of wheat
may buy very little more goods for
the farmer than it has in the past
few years. Tho parity featura of the
plan was intended to correct this
condition and give the farmer In
creased buying power with his
wheat.
Nebraska farmers realize, Brokaw
believes, that dollar wheat does not
mean as much to them as some of
the city folks thinV
number of bushels per 'acre times the
price per bushel determines the in
come from the acre of wheat and
weather conditions have materially
reduced the yields per acre in Ne
braska,
One important point cleared up" for
Nebraska delegates at Kaa$as City
concerned the domestic allotment
feature of the plan. The percentage
of wheat will.be consumed as human
food In this country will be calcu
lated and used in figuring the bene
fit payments. The Nebraska men had
not understood that only the wheat
consumed as human food would bej
considered. The percentage common-
Iv used in the ovn gnat nn at Ifsno-io
City was 55. For example, a farmer
who has been raising a thousand
. mm.
w ""o"- "t. m iuv
uViuuUtuuu iwemy percent to ouu j the thought of a 11,786,000,000 de
bushels. If the domestic consumption ficit behind it and started on a new
ror numan rood is calculated at 55
per cent or tne national crop, this
farmer would get his benefit payment
on 55 per cent of 800 bushels, or 440
oubiieib.
Another important point not quite
cieany understood Detore tne Ivan-
sas City conference was about the gram generally that any adminlstra
length of the contract which will be tion has put into effect in the regu-
fffMffl t f f 1 Wt. TJloKVMnwn ...111 .
v,..v.v. iiio. raiuKia win ue
given the chance to sign the con-
tracts mis ran covering their 1933-
34 and 1934-35 winter wheat crops,
This contract will cover two crop
years. It will be available to winter
wheat growers only this fall and on
a two-year basis. Any failure during
the two years to live up to the con-
tract will forfeit all benefit pay-
ments and turn the payment already
received by the farmer into liens on $2,080,000,000 with an outgo of $3,
his property. S66.000.000.
Several other point3 of interest to
the wheat growers in Nebraska were
discussed at the Kansas City confer-
ence. These points will be explained
in more detail after the Nebarska
men have summarized their notes and
discussed their ideas with the agri-
cultural college staff, county agents,
and Smith-Hughes vocational agri-
culture men.

in the tax bill a year ago, the new
beer taxes and the receipts of nearly

from foreign countries, the receipts
for the year were only 74 millions

WHAT IS AMERICAN
LIVING STANDARD?
The department of labor's project
for a study to fix a- cost-of-living
standard for 1933 is long overdue.
That this has not been done before
illustrates again the indifference of
the post-war ballyhoo era. No gov
ernment study of living costs has
been made since that of the war labor
board in 1918, which was based on
investigations in only 92 industrial
centers.
The 19'8 standards are obsolete
today. Things considered luxuries 15
vears aaro are necessities now. The
use of that old standard as a basis
for wage-fixing in recent years was
in the words of the former labor de
partment statistician, Ethelbert Stew
art. "a crime, a fraud and an out
rage."
In 1928 Prof. Paul Nystrom of Co
lumbia declared that 23 million Am
ericans were living below the mini
mum standard for health and effi
ciency; that there were then two mil
lion families at the poverty level and
three million getting a bare subsist
ence income. ,
In 1928 the average wage of work
ers in manufacturing plants was $1,
$1,140. In that year it required for
the decent support of a worker's fam
ily, as estimated by the industrial
conference board, the government
and others, about $1,8 0.
The theory of basing wages on a
fixed maximum cost of living is, ot
course, a survival of the discredited
economies of yesterday. The Amer
ican Federation of Labor abandoned
this wage theory eight years ago and
insisted that wages be fixed upon the
worker's share in the production of
wealth.
Such a standard is vital now that
industry, labor and government are
setting forth on the new road of na
tional planning and restoration of
buying power.
In 1933 the American living
standard, according to Secretary of
Labor Perkins, should include "not
only food, clothing and shelter, but
security for old age, provision and
the opportunity for healthy recrea
tional life and suitable, varied, and
extended education."
As President Roosevelt expressed
it in describing the purposes of the
industrial recovery law:
"By living wages I mean more
than a bare subsistence level I mean
the wages of decent living ... It is
greatly to their (the employers) in
terest to do this because decent liv
ing, widely spread among our 125
million people, eventually means the
opening up to industry of the rich
est market which the world has1
Known." New York World-Tele
