Q 4 'W A WORLD TO Wi SONDRA REEDY Since we live during an era in which devastating wars violent atomic explosions political dissension and gen eral rebellion are prevalent, we are apt to feel helpless and useless in the wake of such upheaval In the presence of such world shaking events the ordinary individual believes himself insignificant and unimportant Often he retires into himself instead of realizing how much one person can do to better the world and how one person can influence the future The most obscure person can be very important Anyone who wants to exert a far reaching power may do so, but to do this he must be honestly concerned about the salvation of all mankind not merely in saving his own soul One small voice which makes itself heard on the side of truth is often a clarion call to action to those who can do something Once a sufficient number of people discover that falsehood is nothing more than the absence of truth just as darkness is the absence of light hate the absence of love and disease the absence of health then there is high hope that this old world of ours will one day come to know the blessing of a real and lastmg peace There are many basic reasons justifying consistent and continued emphasis on individual responsibility and par ticipatlon in shaping the destiny of mankind The teem ing millions of humanity are nothing more than you one person multiplied over and over again. By living a righteous life by spreading good and by simply doing well what is required of you you are doing your bit to bring the world closer to true unity through your every- day acts. In the words of lda M. Tarbell: If we want peace we must make men of common sense knowing what can be done and what cannot be done also men of good will. How are we to do that? l see no more promising path than each person sticking to the work which comes his way. The nature of the work its teeming size and importance matter far less than its right relation to the place where he finds himself. If the need of the moment is digging a ditch or washing the dishes that is the greatest thing in the world for the moment. The time the place the need the relation are what decide the value of the act. lt is by following this natural path that new and broader roads open to us moments of illumination come. There is the only reliable hope of the world. It takes in all of us but puts it up hard to each of us to fit the day s work into the place where we stand not crowding in another s place' no imitations no hurry growth always, l2 9 knowing that light and power come only with growth slow as it is There is a world wide group which has done much to insert truth in place where falsehood had been prevalent This movement is known as the Christopher movement a word derived from the Greek word Chrlstophoros mean ing Christ bearer The movement has no chapters no committees no meetings There are no memberships no dues Rather than have a large membership paying dues and doing nothing a Christopher is encouraged to do something and pay nothing The Christopher goes into the market place into a job of his or her choosing with out fanfare or flagwaving without doing anything sensa tional His or her simple task is to insist on truth where others are Intent on furthering falsehood to establish order where others are spreading confusion Where there is hate he tries to bring in love where there is darkness he carries light Always striving to implant more firmly the fundamentals which others are trying to uproot the Christopher emphasizes the normal rather than the ab normal Nothing remarkable may ever be required beyond a generous spirit of courage and daring He or she ex pects to do the usual not the unusual the ordinary not the extraordinary knowing that the steady fulfillment of duty often requires plodding devotion and day by day hard work even monotonous drudgery' yet this continu- ing sacrifice is constantly brightened by a driving purpose. Each and every one of us is however part of a group a group in which our aim and preparation will decide whether or not we shall be successful. More than any- thing else this devotion to a cause will render a tremen- dous service not only to ourselves but to humanity as well. Education must stress one fundamental fact which alone makes social living possible: man must be edu- cated for his ultimate goal in life. In order for a person to get anything out of life he must have a definite aim in the attainment of which he gives his utmost espe- cially to effect a better world. Education - good educa- tion - must point out teach and emphasize most con- vincingly that man shall not live by bread alone. lt must be dedicated to the proposition For what doth it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Education must stand for liberty to exercise the rights that have been given us' otherwise it will yield to tyranny. Education must train the human will along with the intellect. lt must produce a free man. This is the basic education which our founding fathers urged as needed for the perpetuation of the Republic. , . fi , , 4. 1 1 , . . .. . . . . ,, I I - ' - I . 1 1 ' , 1 . . . . . , I , . l I ' , 1 - 1 I .
