Uncle, do you remember when you
were just a boy (some 200 yearn
ago), starting out to do things the
way they should be done? You didn't
have a great lot of backing so far
as numbers were ooncerned but
what you lacked in quantity, you had
in quality, Mind how these old fel-
lows wrote you up some rules and
regulations, (Constitution), and by
following those rules, ete, you have
become the greatest man on earth?
Big statement, ye Put it's trig

ment on earth. Proof? They all seem
to look this way for Melp, so don't
let any half-baked mechanics (Holi
ticians) monkey with the machinery
(Constitution) A good mechanic
told me one time, “Oet your oar
working right, then Jet it alone”
well, that old ear (Constitution),
has been perculating fine for all
these years and we believe wil)

no doubt a little more real prayer
would help a lot, Of course, in or-
der to really PRAY, and expect God
to help us, there is something for
us ‘as a nation) to do We need to
repent. Yes, Uncle, it's hard to do
but you'd better Ask Ooxl

Dear Uncle, Here's How
conscience is in danger
fore me a little paper which reads,
guote: “Your work, Dr, Marion, as
pastor of a chureh Is not fundmumen-
tal to the war effort. 1 am not con-
cerned about the churches I am
concerned about getting gasoline for
the men who work tn shops. In sixty
days there will be no gasoline for
churches, and similar enterprises,
and the guicker the churches close
up, the better anyway (This was
the statment of the chairman of the
OPA board, Pontiac, Mich, to Dt
L. L. Marion, pastor of the Christian
Temple In that eity, and of ‘wo
other large churches in other Mich-
igan cities), end quotation
