This Week In
Thought and Religion
By Robert L. Moovly
The Monroe Doctriiw
On December 2nd, this doctrine
■was more than 100 years old. The
Monroe Doctrine stands for the
perservatkm of American territory
against European acquisitions. This
was to guard aganst control of
Latin-American Republics by for
eign powers.
Of course this doctrine was aim
ed at foreign colonizations but
these principles should be applied
to all foreign theories and practices
Despite the conflicts and complexi
ties, these strong ideals caused in
Europe, sure Americanism is threat
ened by foreign invasions. Amer
ica was settled upon the basis of
Christian freedom and any foreign
theory that denies Christ ard free
dom is unAmerican and should be
resisted upon these shores.
Now that Thanksgiving is oyer,
we begin to prepare for Christmas.
As we prepare to celebrate the
birth of our Lord, let our highest
aim be. ’‘The spirit of giving."
presents from others are to be gra
ciously received but let us seek to
display the spirit of Christmas
where H is most needed. Give those
persons who need happiness most.
Seeing that the world and man
kind was helpless in need of deliv
erance God so loved the world.
that He gave his only begotten
Son." We may not give the most
ooetly gifts, but let the spirit of
sharing and helping be our goal.
‘‘Not what we give, but what
we share .
The gift without the giver is bare
Who gives himself with his alms,
feeds three.
Himself, His hungering neighbor
and Me.”
Our Bible school theme this week
ir “Christian Best.’’ It is absurd to
thing of obtaining “rest” without
‘'laboring.’’ Whether you are la
boring under, (1) the burden of
sin, or (2) the yoke of spiritual,
social, financial or moral response j
bility, the Miaster yet calls: "Come
unto Me, all ye that labor and are '
heavy laden, and I will give you '
retA. Take my yoke upon you and
earn of me, for My yoke is easy
Md My burden Is light.” Matt. 11: |
88-80.

ST. JOHN A. M. E. CHURCH
“The Friendly Church”
Dr. R. A. Adams, Pastor
The Sunday school started the
service at St. John ’ast Sunday
with a fine attendance.
Rev. Williams, presiding elder of
the Omaha district, pr<*acched as
it was quarterly meeting day. The
subject of his sermon was, ‘Lord
To Whom Shall We Go?” One of
his most outstanding thoughts was
that we nesd someone to go to,
who can lift us up, else we perish.
The revival has been fair, but
the attendance has not come up to
expectation. The religious pageant
that is to follow the revival pro
mises to be very impressive.
The choir is working on its mu
sical for Christmas.
The church expresses its sym
pathy to the family and friends
of Sister Jenkins who passed last
week.
The ill of the church are report
ed as doing fine. We pray for their
speedy recovery.
