S. MEETS The Dunlap Circle of the S. of the First Baptist Church met Monday afternoon with Mrs. J. A.

Dunlap as their delightful hostess at her home. After an interesting program on False Witnesses Among the abominations outlined by Solomon in the Proverbs is: "A false witness that speaketh lies and he that soweth discord among brethern." 6-19. The politician'who "soweth dis- rh cord among ibrethern" uses one of the oldest, most despicable--yet most successful tricks in his repertory. In a certain Latin American country where toy revolutions occur regularly (which the writer was able to observe while spending a winter there), this age-old trick always came in handy. A minority leader would spread stories, scandalous and untrue, about leaders of the majority parties.

The friction which resulted between prominent leaders of the majority as well as among the people who couldn't tell what was true and what was false, gave a smpll rebellious 'army-Hperhaps backed funds from foreign countries the chance to ride roughshod into power. Today, in our own America, we have a plague of these abominations. Back of each of them is a scoundrel who hopes to ride into power while we brethern are fighting each othejr. This abomination has- reached the stage where the most slimy and treacherous methods of smearing and name- calling are being used in an attempt to sow discord among us. The reasons for these "false to speak their lies are now clear.

We are entering a political campaign with issues more vital to our country than any in the memory of those living. The determination of the issues to be decided will influence the lives of -our children long after we are gone. The "false witnesses" who are attempting to muddy the clear stream of our national thinking by injecting the poisonous chemicals cf hatred, scorn and spleen, hope to before the real issues facing us. In this way, they expect to creep into power by befuddling the people. The use of half-truths and innuendoes in an election is intended to divide the nation.

Let us not be deceived by these 1 "false witnesses" who will hurl accusations about at random in their sinister attempts to turn, faction against the other, one group against the other. Let us analyse the significant issues, by their economic or political, without recourse to distracting rumors about irrelevant factors. But let these "false witnesses" not forget that we are living in a Democracy composed of millions of sensible, hard-worfang men and women whose traditions of Freedom will not permit them to be "Enlistment" was given, a short business session was held.
