A SERMONETTE. BY CARLOS B. CROSS OFTHE LEADER
A LONG LIFE
Proverbs 3:1-2 My son forget
not my law; but let thine heart
keep my commandments: For
length of days and long life, and
peace, shall they, add to thee.
Medical science has in the last
century, yet, in the twentieth
century, discovered various med-
icines and other things to add sub-
stantially to the years of a man’s
life. Still we search for more and
better ways to preserve it. We
as a human race have a desLe
to find happiness and prosperity
for the years ahead.
Out text says let the heart
koep my commandments.
By living the laws of God in
our everyday life we add to our
health and life. ——
When we live a life of sin and
wastefulness we break God's law
concerning pur physical health.
Our health can be squandered
away just as surely as our. money
when we use it and abuse it. If
we would have a healthy body,
we must feed it. clothe it, and
handle it with care.
Just as surely, our spiritual life
must be fed with God's word,
clothed with prayer and exercia-

usually developed and still we
are not satisfied. I believe when
Jesus said "Seek ye first the
Kingdom of God and his righteous
ness and all these things will be
added unto you" Matthew 6:33.
He meant for us to live our very
best frir him and he would give
us means to make a living. I don’t
think God intends for us to go
hungry, neither do I think he
wants us to strive only to amass
material wealth. ''
I have found in my own life
that money will not buy happi-
ness nor friends Only by loving
and helping others can we find
true happiness.
The scripture also says we will
have peace. Peace of mind, when
we help our neighbors, pray for
our enemies we can sleep at
night.
When we have Christ in our
hearts we can have the assurance
of life after death. What can add
more to the happiness of the
aged person than that thought.
Let us keep His commandments
in our hearts Tor the only satis-
fying reason for living.

The need for properly function-

asized by the figures which fol-
low. It should be pointed out that
these children can fall into
or more group* and some may
fall into ail groups.
Out of evory one hundred child-
ren in the classrooms today, 2S
to 40 will have physically broken
homes. Children from these
hemes will suffer seriously from
this separation of parents. The
United States now has the high-
est divorce rate in the world and
her divorce rate among teenage
marriages is 300 percent of the
rate oi marriages over this age
group.
The assistance which the pub-
lic schools can give was illustrat-
ed by what is being done in one
Texas county. One school in that
county teaches a course designed
to prepare young people for the
responsibilities of marriage. The
divorce rate among those who
have taken this class is .3 per-
cent compared to a county rate
of 40 percent.
Twenty to forty of these hund-
red students will baH^H

will work because they need the

on record as not agreeing with
the position taken by the major-

fashioned by some because it is
working under the same philoso-

founded, and the organization
sees no need to abandon a dyna-
