ANDERSON, CRUSA'EER, TELLS KlWANlS CLUB PURE 0F HEART-A ONLY GET REAL JOY OUT OF LIFE Makes Address at Weekly Luncheon in Royal James—Seems Bigotry, Jealousy, Hatred- Praises Kiwanis Drive for Hospital—A Bi Help to Norwalk The Rev. George Wood Anderson leader of tho Crusade at the taber- nacle address the Kiwanis club yes- terday at their luncheon in the Roy- al James lnn. He took for his theme “The pure of Heart." 110 said:— "What you see does not depend upon the condition of your eyes for really a min with one eye and that perhaps. darkened by cloudy catar- acts, has beheld beauties and mean~ lugs for better than those at us who are blessed with binocular vis- ion. What you see does not depend upon whether you have any eyes at all. for many of those born blind and who never beheld the love- light of a mother's eyes have brought to our attention some of life’s greatest revelations. Very few of us have attained into the vision of Homer, and Milton and Huber, and Blind Tom, and George. Mat- theson and Funny Crosby. Blind and yet blessed with vision. Good Eye Sight. "Do not think that I fail to ap- preciate the value of good eye-sight. A wonderful piece of mechanism is the human optic. It's creptallize lens adjusting itself like a. telescOpe in the one-one—thousandth of a sec- ond. Its retina. a. mosaic of rods and cones forming a key-board which, touched by the fingers of the sunbeams fill the soul with all the harmonies of earth, see and way. Wonderful, beyond words is "God's gift of eye-sight. yet eyes in themselves are nothing, and the ability to "see things is nothing compared with the vision of Homer and Milton. "If vision depended upon our eyes, then we would all see alike, but the fact is very few of see alike. How true that is of nature. In looking out upon nature all some people see are signess, and omens and prescntmcnts. The deserted house is filled with ghosts, the sol— itudes with demons and‘the deserts with dragons. Their happiness de- pends upon which shoulder they looked over to see the new—moon and their success depends upon a pin or a horse—shoe they find in their pathway. They are slaves of fear groping their way through a world filled with demons and gob- lins. . "We do~. not see society alike. Seine men have the eyes of an eagle but the taste of a buzzard and spend their days watching every man's paths for a crooked step and every man’s action for a wrong deed: and once found the mistake is devoured. not to be digested, but to be sperv- ed out into the ears of others and thus fill the whole community with the stench. What Home See. "People do not see government affairs alike. there are some who never see anything but sorrow and Calamities ahead. They look across the Atlantic they see England. They look across the Pacific and sec Ja- pan. They look way down South and see Mexico. They see national disas- ter riding upon every wind and wave. "What is the matter that men do not see alike? If vision depended upon the optics there would be greater uniformity. The fact is that visioa depcvnds not on the optics but upon one‘s points of view. “Three men viewed the same tree. Looking upon it the one man said: "My! What lumber!" and went away calculation the number of boards that the tree contained. The second man looking upon it said: "My! What Dark!" and he went away calculating how many hides that amount of bark would tan. The third man looking upon it said: "My! What beauty! No wonder our fathers n|stook it for a god to worship!" and he went away to em- balm its beauty upon an immortal canvass. No 'two men saw alike be- cause thcy have different points or view. One was a. lumberman, one was a tanner. the other an artists. and each man saw the tree from the point of view of his own busi- iness. “The task of life is to gain the right place from which to look upon this world and the men and women who dwell upon it. Fortunately we are not left to ourselves the Master Teacher of the world has made it plain when he uttered the words: ‘Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see.‘ , A Pure heart. "A pure heart, one that has in it no jealousy, no narrowness, no bigotry. no hatred, malace or re- venge is the only place of clear vis- ion that men can find. With hearts filled with love and charity and the spirit of forgiveness, the bitter dif- ferences of life will disappear and mankind will rejoice in a fellow- ship and brotherhood sublime. ._ "Take out of man's heart the things that ought not dwell with- in and superstition vanishes. He will see God and, beholding him. will see that there is nothing hop-haz- aard in all the realm There are no ghosts or phantoms, witches or demons, who lurk. with an evil intent to destroy oiir lives but that all the realm of nature is 5' TUBE RADIO $24.95 GUARANTEED Times Square Auto Supply 64 N.

Sept. 26 (AP).— Finance Minister Caillnux of France. who has begun negotia- tions for the settlement of the French war debt to the United States in Washington, has been amused by the many mlspro- nunciations of his surname. These have ranged all the way from something that sounded like “Ka- loaks" with a long ”a" to "Kiy- ux" with a short "i" and a long "u.'

Nonnun with hatred in his heart or with a spirit of retaliation gov- erning his thinking can ever know the real value of his fellow man. “The fact is that there are nug- gets of quiet gold lying buried in the heart of every man. and he who cannot see that wealth lying there for him will live. and tile a pauper. Long ago 1 learned the lesson that I cannot afford to mistreat or ignore any man or woman on the face of earth. They may not like me but I am going to like them--they can't keep me from it. They may have, wronged me, but they can't prevent me forgiving-them and admiring the good that lies buried in their lives. 1 am determined not to rob my life by refusing to see the good that lies in every man’s heart whether the world esteems him as being of great or trifling \‘uiuu. Golden Nuggets. "Finding the golden nuggets in the hearts of others 1 am rich. 1 cannot take the gold or copper out of their purse for that would be robbing them and linking them poor, us well as throwillg away the golden treasures of' my good name and character. l'cunnot take his earthly possessions and keep the gold of self-respect. but finding the. gold that lies in the hearts of the. meanest man, 1 am enriched beyond measure. and he is better too for my having found it.

When business men are dominated by selfishness and hold their competitors in contempt and regret to see them prosper; when men in the professions look upon the misfortunes of their fellow men as wine-vats in which they crush the hope and Joy of man to fill their own selfish cup of life; when families "think only of their own households; and property own— ers are concerned with nothing says the reduction of their tax rate, you have a ‘pitiful. struggling, dying town or city. But when the hearts of the city leaders are pure you have a thriving city and a happy popu- lace. The Hospital. “That is why I rejoice in this great drive that is now in progress tor a larger hospital. There is no selfishness in this. It belongs to no one group. It is for all. Within its sheltering walls shall gather the rich and poor to receive alike the minis- try of men and women whose ser- vice must be a service of undying love. This enterprise is above all petty things that dwell in impure hearts and therefore k: a blessing to the city. Such a united effort has a greater value than the effipient realization of a, stated objective-it is a call to nobleness and unselfish generosity which is the death of hatred, and narrowness. and bigotry. “I congratulate the Kiwanis, Club for the part that they are taking in giving this Community an opportun- ity to show that is bigger than the narrow limits of any political organ- ization: that it is broader in mind than any denomination. creed or doctrine: that it. can reveal a spirit- uality that rivals and transcends he’r material prosperity, and that the view point or every man and every woman is that of purity and love. "The day has passed for rivalry and bigotry—the hour has come for cooperation.‘ To raise 8160.000 by contributing but $80,000 is a call for every man to cast aside every un- worthy motive and catch the‘vision of the larger, better city that may and must be the heritage ‘01 our children.
