To Those Who Dare By R. A. Adams (For The Literary Service Bureau) The laggard, running in life’s race, Who to another yields his place, Will never with the victors share— Ccmes this alone to those who dare! The man who fails to make advance, Waiting to have “an even chance,” Failure insures, for everywhere, Success comes but to those who dare The man who hesitates to fight, E’en though his cause ge just, and i right, Must name of arrant coward bear, And yield his place to those wTho dare, Who may be curred with craven soul, j Will never reach a worthy goal, Nor w'reath of victor proudly wear— This is for those alone who dare! The Deathless Dead Bv R. A. Adams (For The Literary Service Bureau) This is not a sermon, notwithstand ing the use of a text, Revelations 14: 13, which reads Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord, from hence forth; Yea saith the Spirit, that they rest from their labors and their works do follow them. But the last clause should read, “And their works go on after them-” This means that though the bodyT shall^ die, influence of the life shall go on; in the lives and the services of others, the work will continue after death So it has been; so it is; and so it ever will be; despite the fallacious expression of Alexander Pope that “Life can little more supply Than just to look about us and to die." Life affords opportunity for hu man helpfulness. Altruism is a po werful incitement to devote life’s en ergies to human betterment. And it is assuring to know that such efforts will not end with the death of the worker In Zecariah 1:5 is found this query: Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live for ever? The fathers were not and are not dead; the prophets do live for ever!” They died, but in the lives of others, in the perpetuity of their in fluence, and the performance by others of noble deeds inspired by them,' they do live forever. So with all who live for others— “Their good works go on after them.” Weekly Short Sermon The Lord’s Prayer — By Dr. A- G. Bearer (For The Literary Service Bureau) Text: Hallowed be thy name— Matthew 6:9. Profanity is irreverence- Taking the Lord’s name in vain is profanity It is but a step from lack of rever ence for the Lord’s name to lack of reverence and of respect for the Lord, Himself- From Sinai comes the command, Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord, thy God in vain.” And there is the specific and empha tic declaration, “Fpr the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain ” Yet there are offend ers in every walk of life 1. Individuals who use the Lord’s name in swearing are disregarding the plea for the sacredness of this NAME. 2- People who use the Lord’s same as a “gy-word” are inexcusable offenders- Often Christians and even ministers say, “Good Lord;” “My Lord;” “Jesus Christ:” “God Al mighty;” “My God;” and they other wise use it as an expetive- I know ministers who frequently say, “Good Lord, no!" 3. Many radio singers seem to have forgotten entirely the command ment and to have lost all reverence for the Lord’s name- They use the words. “Lord. Lord;” “Lordy;” and make the lord’s name common- Let it be remembered, “the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” And in this respect Christians should practice what they pray SEEING WHITE (Continued) By A. B- Mann (For The Literary Service Bureau) It requires no extensive investiga tion to demonstrate that, in the South, little attention is given to im morality among Negroes as long as the conditions do not interfere with the interests of white people- Such crimes as seduction, unlawful habita tion and prostitution among colored people do not concern the dominant white- In these things even the judi ciary is derelict- Has morality a der matic hue? With the Negro immoral, can the white people escape conse quences of association with them? These questions merit consideration A marriage license clerk in Ft. Wcrth, Texas, offered free license to the first couple to apply on St- Val entine's Day. The stipulations were, “It must be their first marriage, and the bride and groom must be white-” Perhaps the purpose of this offer was to enlcourage marriage in this age of waning matrimony and multiplicity of divorces; but this concerned itself with white people only- The infer ence was that it little matters wheth er Negroes marry or not—To be con tinued. LOOKING BACK By Videtta Ish Inciting to Anger (For The Literary Service Bureau) “That child 'is terrible. He has such a temper. It’s fun to see him fly into a fit.” It maybe fun now, but par ents who encourage this will rue it Many parents tease such a child. Of ten they do it in company to show neighbors bow the child “gets mad-” Not only is it “heaping up trouble” for the parents, but it is gross in- j justice to the child Parents of the other type, those of the other days, deplored the temper of their children, and while they of-, ten were indiscreet and untactful in i dealing with it, they certainly’ did not! tease their children and incite them to anger. It would be well that parents re member that their children are the creatures of their moulding. That heredity play’s an important part is true and parents ought to so consider and try to help the children over come this tendency- Encouragement in this respect may end disastrously for the child- Better not, parents- j Maxie Miller Writes (For The Literary Service Bureau) Bother and sister “in love”— seems case of shameful lust—incest and destuction threaten—may not be rial brother—if so, better stop “play ing with fire!” (For advice, write to Maxie Miller, « care of T1 ■ Literary Service Bureau. 516 Minne. ;ta Avenue, Kansas City, Kansas, Fo personal reply, send post age.) Maxie Miller: Here is a strange case for you. I am nineteen and never had a beau- Always I’ve gone out with my brother. People have laughed at me for this. Now, comes this brother of mine and says he’s in love with me, and he wants me to run off with him and marry him He‘s twenty and good looking, but he won’t notice any other girl- Since we’ve been necking and petting I find it has the same effect it would with some other man- Once, we almost slipped. It will kill my mother if she finds out, and I’m afraid something And I don’t know what to do- I love this brother like a man and not like will surely happen, if we keep on-1 a brother- Please tell me what to do —Moble Mix. Mollie Mix: You choose an appro priate name, for you are badly mix ed. It may be that this boy is not your rea brother. Better try to find out- If he is not your brother, then marry him- If he is your brother, it is not love but lust, and you are in serious danger. Marry a brother?
