in Georgetown by the Defense Supply Agency Defense Electronics Supply Center In Dayton Ohio The contract calls for klystron electron tubes Science Helping by Walter Ridley Norval Put to rule Charge of the United Church Successful helping by individuals by churches by helping agencies and by notions Is absolutely necessary for the survival of the human race Helping others is one of the basic concepts of our Christian faith At first thought it may seem that helping Is a simple thing but in fact helping another is one of the most difficult tasks facing a person I would go so far as to say that not only do most of our attempts to help fail they act unity are harmful My paint Is made cieai when we consider how difficult it Is to help a neighbour who may be In financial trouble That person pride sense of independence and sense of self worth all must be taken into account Now consider helping a person or a family or a group of people in another country where language cultural religious historical and political barriers make our understanding of that person real needs almost Impossible We all know the blunders thai hove been made In our dealings with our Canadian Indians It Is a complicated problem but I believe the basic difficulty lies in the fact that we have attempted to Impose our standards and our values upon them rather than give help on their terms We often hear of third generation welfare people and wonder how people can continue to be so lazy but when a person spirit Is broken it takes more than a welfare cheque to repair it How often have you heard criticism and doubts about the way our money is spent on International assistance It grieves me to know that much of this criticism Is based on fact because It Is true lhat some of our money is wasted or unwisely used not by crooks or but by self sacrificing well iitentloned but unln formed people My answer to this problem Is not to give up or Stop helping others for this would be disastrous for them and us No my answer is that along with our compassion and desire to help we must also have the knowledge of how to help There Is what might be called a science of helping and to clarify what I mean let me make the following paints First people need help and in many cases professional help which is so because we ore a social people and depend on each other for survival a sign of weakness but rather of our human Secondly help must take place within a relationship The helper must know the recipient as a person so his real needs con be derstood The reelp must also know the helper so fears and pre ju dices and other can be broken down This is why It is necessary to missionaries and foreign aid workers living more or less permanently In other countries so that the more basic needs and not Just the more obvious physical needs may be Let us also remember that giving Is not a one way street When we work with others within a relationship we loo arc enriched by their gifts My third point is thai help is very difficult to take The recipient must be willing to admit that his present of life is Inadequate and that change is But people hesitate to give up the known for the unknown Careful research experimental plots and almost 100 percent assurance of success are before new practices will be accepted And fourthly if help Is to be real it must thin a free choice situation If the person Is able to he must also be able to say no the right to This is often ngfor Ihe helping because this new method is far superior to old but it is not obvious until the person ac it by his own free will Help one another and so fulfill the law of Christ but my appeal is that we help thai we to Ihose organizations which arc not only governed b compassion but also wisdom and a knowledge of the science of helping LEASING A CAR OR TRUCK GIVE US A TRY SERVICES UPHOLSTERED furniture recovered and repaired Quality workmanship T J A certified master watchmaker watch repairs Line Glen Williams If
