Show BEAR RIVER VALLEY LEADER, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1930. -I- "Jesus the Perfect Man" - ()llinston dug-wa- ' 4 n, The following appeared in the Commercial Appeal seventeen years ago, it is well worth repeating. Thre is no other character in history like that of Jesus. As a preacher, as a doer of things, as a philosopher, no man ever had the sweep and the vision of Jesus. A human analysis of the human actions of Jesus brings to view a rule of life that is amazing in its perfect detail. The system of ethics Jesus taught during His early sojourn, 2,000 years ago, was true then, has been true in every century since and will be true forever. Plato was a great thinker and learned in his age, but his teachings did not Etand the test of time. In big things and in lktle things time and human experience have shown that he erred. Marcus Aurelius touched the reflective mind of the world, but he was as cold and austere as brown marble. The doctrine of Confucius gave a great nation moral and mental dry rot. The teaching of Buddha resulted in mental and moral chaos that makes India derelict. Mohammed offered a system of ethics which was adopted by milions of people. Now their children live in deserts where once there were cities, along dry rivers where once there was moisture, and in the shadows of gray, barren hills where once there was greenness. Thomas Aquinas was a profound philosopher, but parts of his system have been abandoned. Francis of Assissi was Christlike in his saintliness, but in some things he was childish. Thomas A. Kemps' Imitation of Christ is a thing of rare beauty and sympathy, but it is, as its name indicates, only an imitation. Sir Thomas Moore's Utopia' is yet a dream that cannot be realized. Lord Bacon writing on chemistry and medicine under the glasses of the man working in a twentieth century laboratory is puerile. The world's most learned doctors until a hundred and fifty years ago gave dragon's blood and the ground dried tails of lizards and shells of eggs for certain ailments. The great surgeons a hundred years ago bled a man if he were wounded. Napoleum had the world at his feet for four years, and when he died the world was going on its way as if he had never lived. Jesus taught little as to property because He knew there was things of more importance than property. He measured property and life, the body and soul, at their exact relative value. He taught much as to character, because character is of more importance than dollars. Other men taught us to develop systems of government. Jesus taught so as to perfect the minds of men. Jesus looked to the soul, while other men dwelled on material things. After the experience of 2,000 years no man can find a flaw in the governmental system as outlined by Jesus. Czar and kaiser, president and socialist give to its complete merit admiration. No man today, no matter whether he follows the doctrine of Mills, Marx or George as to property, can find a false principle in Jesus' theory of property. In the duty of a man to his fellows, no sociologist has ever approximated the perfection of the doctrine laid down by Jesus in His Sermon on the Mount. Not all the investigation of chemists, not all the discovers of explorers, not all the experiences of rulers, not all the historical facts that go to make up the sum of human knowledge on this day in 1930 are in contradiction to one word uttered or one principle laid down by Jesus. The human experience of 2,000 years show that Jesus never made a mistake. Jesus never uttered a doctrine that was true at the time td tH;-giap- h time. .Mrs. Saunders.

He could not have been merely a man, for there never was a man who had two consecutive thoughts absolute in truthful perfection. Jesus must have been what Christendom proclaims Him to be a divine being or He could not have been what He was.
