m Hfta YOUR OWN CORNER »y ./V:;- LEONARD A. BARRETT •"Oh ff1 i> East, and We«t Is W««tv never the tw»ln shall meet. Till r.arth and Sky shall prftaently stand ^ God's great Judgment Seat: *. ut there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth. When two strong men stand fact to face. , #mih they come from the «nd» of (be earth." When shall our modern civilixation be done with that philosophy * which says: You i n y o u r s m a l l corner, and trie in mine?. Our human progress depends upon mutual as well as individual responsibilities. A tragr edy is sure to arise if two strong men never, "stand face to face." Yet this tragedy is daily enacted in our social and economic ^.'Me. Society classifies people as - ' \\."those who have not" * and ' those ;V.. who have," and the barriers aire im- -passable . - Under these circyhv -stances wealth never comes in contact with poverty, nor culture with ignorance. Many of our social prob- •1J lems arise because strong men i . never stand face to face. Wealth says to poverty, You stay in your ;•* • corner: Just so far and no farther. Poverty and ignorance also volun- • tarily withdraw into their corner. f Poverty has its own pride and conr 2 <*ept of integrity which it has acrS \ quired at a great cost. r The "East and the West" must meet if we are to fuse the strength jp|*\ of both into a permanent strongi |i hold. Labor disputes can be solved ./ at a conference table of mutual respect and sacrifice. Her compromises are effected and misunderstandings cleared. It is the meeting together that is essential, if East is to1 understand West. But how shall they meet? What motive will bring them together from the ends of "their corners" in the earth? ^ A Ti*t«nn»l or world disaster will do it. The catastrophe of the recent flood came to people regardless of their social or economic status. The flood was no respector of persons. The large buildings and the little "£Ktqks felt the mighty rushing water*£f rivers loosed from human contfclA The power of the ministry of the Red Cross at such times is the po^er of a multitude el human beings\who answer the need. The Near East Relief, aid to sirfferers in volcano-torn Japan or fleod-swept China emphasize the meeting of men face to face in hours of need. The depression has proved itself a great leveler. Mutual helpfulness and human sympathy hitherto buried, are spontaneously expressed. The struggles of life do much to preserve its heritage ancK strengthen the heroic elements of character without which no nation can endure. At refltsation of man's debt to van also furnishes a motive for ristof above and reaching beyond the Unit of one's own little corner. Ho are not only our brother's beeper but our brother's debtor. In 'a democracy there is a diversity of personalities but one brotherhood. Osr likes and dislikes are not the same but we all have the common desire to be understood, to be considered worthy of counsel, to participate in universal progress. The* Hangs which separate us are artificial: the things which unite us are real. The things which sep- *.aate us belong to social caste: the Hfogs which unite us belong to the ami of society.
