BACK TO FAIRY TALES
Adolph Hiller's plan to supplant certain religious
dogmas and histories with the old-time fairy tales, in
volves more than the mere question of religious beliefs.
It smatters of m effort to resurrect many of the old
time pretty fictions which left an indellible impression on |
the minds and hearts of tender youth, not the least of:
which was tender sentiment and sympathy.
What man or woman of middle age or more who has j
not lived thru the enchanting masterpieces of Hans
Christian Anderson and Gronim! Then to drift into;
the dream world, peopled by fairy folk and see the tiny j
golden coach, drawn by the white mice, whisk the poor
Tittle tailor and the beautiful princess away to “live hap-1
pv ever after!
It is in contrasting the present-day lush and hum-:
bug imposed upon childhood that one recognizes the
value of the old-time fairy tales in their relation to soft-j
ening and invigorating young hearts and giving them re
freshing influences.
hat force could better serve to bring the child
mind into happy unity with Christian concepts than these
pretty word-pictures, so expressive of the very essence of
Christianity?
It is a notable fact that what has been accomplished
by the illustrious President Franklin D. Roosevelt has
been thru reversion to old-time Christian usages brought
forth under the title of the “new deal.”
Thus, the experiment sought by Hitler has equal ef-■
feet in .withdrawing as well as hardening the temper of
the national ethos. It will warrant close observation for
what, it might accomplish in point of reinstatng Chris
tian ideals and guiding a people back to the philosophies j
of the ages, winch none have been equal to supplanting. i
GLORIA IN EXCELSIS! HE IS RISEN!
Throughout the nation tomorrow gladsome voices
will float out upon the ambient air heralding the message!
of a Savior risen and the inheritance by a world bowed
in sorrow and confusion of a new light to guide human
ity to exalted spiritual and material heights.
It is the season wThen the heart grows and expands
under the inspiration of spring, symbolic of the begin-1
ning of things, when the earth fecundizes and brings j
forth promise of bountiful harvests.
How7 vividly appropos of the hour'is the emergence ;
of the nation from the sha’dows wTiich have obscured j
hope and made men afraid, reared up a beacon to guide \
them as the cross of Gesthemane w’as reared on that j
glorious day 1932 years ago. |
The same inspiration and immutable tenets w’hich!
set the world aright in its previous darkest hour are the
forces which have again conquered the flesh and brought
the nation under the influence of spiritual guidance re
posed in a man w ho is the very epitome of Christian
character. He was not ashamed to kneel before the al- •
tar and ask divine guidance in the great task imposed .
upon Him. And none who have sought this refuge have ■
not departed empty-handed.
Gloria in EAcelsis! He is risen!
READY FOR WHEEL PLANES
Should an airplane arrive at the
Seward Airport equipped with
skiis, the pilot will be out of luck
and then some. One more day of
sunshine and there will not be an
inch of snow any place on the
field Wheel jobs only may now
sit down. With the exception of
one or two small spots which are
a trifle soft, the field is as clear
and dry as in mid-summer.
