peoples of the of whatever race or religion derive their inspiration from one heavenly Source and are the subjects of one God toes aftaMua Tomtit aWI Clergy Comment by Rev JcaaSUlra Last week I visited with a retired minister who is both a cherished friend and a good theologian rolled up into one He had recently acquired an old dog which he had taught some new tricks Of them all the one that impressed me most required a doggie biscuit or some other tasty morsel When placed at the dogs foot it to remain there as long as my friend said the words on trust After what seemed like an agonizingly king and tormenting time the dog was then permitted to devour the tidbit My theologian friend who sometimes can sound a bit said in a moment of reflection Too bad God didnt create more dogs and canines and less of the two- legged species I laughed at the time but now see the depth of his simple comment God has given us the twolegged species a world on trust but we seem hell bent on its destruction We pollute its waters set Tire to its habitations litter and deface its grounds and as If that is not enough we even create mechanisms that could ter minate the lives of all canine creatures and children that exist upon it Surely we ought to hear Ihe message implicit in that phrase on trust If anything for my friends dog and so too for us Blue Ribbon for paper The Acton Free
