The Weakness Of Despotism By JOSEPH LISTER RUTLEDGE One man 'dies and the civilized world grieves, Another dies and hearts leap with relief. It is the tribute to a conscience and a life. Dr. Eduard Benes led his country in the way of democracy. In the face of disillusionment and apparent betrayel of was faithful to a belief and never wavered in the generous road he had chosen. Andrei Zhdanov also followed an unwavering road, but there were few to mourn him. He had a great funeral in the Red Square in Mos- cow. All the Politburo, the power of Russia, was there, Foreign Minister Molotov, now the undoubted second man in Moscow, delivered the ora- tion while Mafshal Stalin looked on approving, "But neither of them mourned. Molotov had feared the little zealot who stood ahead of him in the confidence of the Party. Stalin, once his friend, had seen him outlast his usefulness. The Cominform, the instrument of Zhdanov's devising, had brought a rift among the satellites and had permitted the little despots like Ti- to to strut and posture and defy the all powerful Soviet Union. Nobody liked that. So the rumor will not down that the mourning of Molotov and Stalin had a dubious sound. You don't mourn those you fear. Zhdanov induced fear. He was the confident and vocal cham= pion of the irrepressible conflict be- feared for his prestige. Stalin was tween West and East. He was the driving force behind it. Molotov troubled by the growing antagon- isms within Russia and without that could not be denied. Living, Zhdanov could drive his fellows by the very zealousness of his course, and the fear of appearing less zeal- ous. That is the strength and the weakness of all despotisms. Dead, Zhdanov was only the sub- ject of glowing and meaningless words. His zeal had died with him. There was time to think whether a conflict was unavoidable, a time to think and consider without fear. So 'at least it appears to a world. So it can mourn for one death and accept another with relief. Small Response To Fish Survey Halifax--(CP).~ Professor Donald Hayes of Dalhousie University, en- gaged by the Nova Scotia govern- ment to make a survey of the move- ment of tagged fish and the number caught, says fishermen did not co- operale in the project. In his report on the survey, Pro- fessor Hayes waid the province placed wooden containers on all main trails leading to fishing com- munities. They contained post-cards which fishermen were asked to fill in and send to Dr. Hayes. Less than 100 of the cards were mailed in, he said. thou when I laid the foundations of the world?" and reciting the won- ders thereof which He had created, until Job was humbled, realizing how puny were his miseries com- pared with the marvels of the uni- verse. ~ If there is time in the space al- lotted for the teaching of this les- son, part of the Lord's words to Job should be read. They are am- ong the most beautiful in the whole Bible. "Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath; and behold every one that is proud and abase him," the Lord told Job.

BARCLAY WARREN It is a current idea, especially among young people, that being a Christian is a very drab and un- happy type of life. This is due in part to those who though professing to be Christian, do not live a vic- torious life. Joy is not the key- note of their life. But there is a deeper reason.

"Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say, Rejoice." 5 Are you a follower of Jesus Christ/ He said to His disciples, "These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in (you, and that your joy might be full." The Christian life is one of blessedness, happiness, or rejoicing which shall have its culmination heaven with the eternal God, His holy angels and the redeemed saints of all ages, POTATO MEETING Ottawa, Oct. 30 -- (CP) = An authoritative source said Friday night a Canadian delegation will leave for Washington shortly to thrash out the position of the Can- adian potato .on the American market. The Washington confer- ence has become necessary, he said, because of a growing move in some American political quarters to block further shipments of Canadian potatoes to the United States.

After this the Lord not and cannot understand the joy of the Christian. Nevertheless, he is often dissatisfied and longs for something deeper and richer. A girl in her teens who recently took her own life left a note declaring that she had tried all the thrills that life had to offer and yet was unhappy. . The Christian life is one of joy. Paul, the apostle, rejoiced even in tribulation and evhorted others to do so.

If the The Dramatic Life of Job MANY, MANY intensely drama- tic stories are related in our Bible. They include tales of individuals-- | from Adam to Peter, Paul and other personalities who led adventure- filled lives, and stirring tales are al- | so narrated of the Hebrew people, | their tragedies, wanderings, suffer- ings, sins and triumphs. Sometimes it seems that the] history of the Jewish people, who have thought themselves the cho- sen people of God, have been so! filled with tragedy and horror that | there is no end to it. However, | they, too, like Job, hero of today's | Bible story, have remained true to! Jehovah, and to their faith in ul- | timate salvation. The book of Job begins thus: | "There was a man in the land of | Uz, whose name was Job, and that | man was perfect and upright, and | one that feared God." We are told that Joh was a great and wealthy' man. He had many possessions--sheeps, camels, oxen, and "a very great household." He also had 10 fine children --seven sons and three daughters. Job feared Jehovah, sacrificed often to Him, even for his chil-|' dren, whom, he feared, might be. negligent in this rite. Job also was honest in business dealings, and generous to the poor and needy. Now there came a day when the sons of God (His rhessengers or angels) presented themselves fo the Lord, and Satan also came, because he too was an angel, although a fallen one. The Lord said to Satan, "Whence comest thou?" And the Prince of Darkness replied, "From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in_it." His answer shows the restlessness of an evil being. The Lord asked Satan if he had | considered His man Job, who was perfect and upright, 'one (remained faithful, wife advised him. to that (demanding to know feareth God and turneth away from evil?" Satan suggested that Job might not prove so perfect if he was made to suffer without apparent cause." The Lord gave Satan permission to try Job by taking away his property, leaving him nothing; even depriving him of his children. Satan took the challenge, ana so it came "about that all Job's possessions were destroyed, ' his children were killed while they ;were feasting together .when the house collapsed, and nothing was left 'him, When messengers brought these SIMCOE ST.
