In reality, however, the exact opposite is true. (One brings himself to a higher station by helping another to make the upward climb.) But intolerance and hatred go on and on, wreaking individual lives and disrupting institutions and nations. The elimination of hatred is not brought about, however, by more hatred - only by substituting it with love. Adolph Hitler was consumed by a hatred so great that he brought about the extermination of thousands (some say millions) of hapless Jews. But did killing the Jews diminish his mania? Not at all! Hitler was obsessed by a devilish idea. Many of us are likewise obsessed. The difference is in degree, not kind. In little subtle ways, we deal out punishment to those we are close to. Because of emotional immaturity, we allow the little irritations to build up inside us, and then take it out on those we love. Thus, the domineering husband is taking out on his wife all the (to him) personal affronts hes suffered during a trying day at work.

The basic truth is that children really have an innate desire to be disciplined. They need the security of boundaries. Discipline is Chosen as his two counselors were H.

It seems like he never believes it procrastinates--h- e is easier to keep up than catch up! And so it is, said Bishop Featherstone at the 142 annual General Conference of the Mormons this month in the historic Mormon Taber-nace- l. I also believe in doing the job now and getting it done, and then moving on to the next one. The incredible thing is that both new bishops are so well organized that they find time for a variety of activities in addition to their primary interests -- - their families, their church and their professions. of the Mormon Church who are friends of Bishop Peterson and Bishop Featherstone are fond of teasing them about the time they I spend in church activity. guess your church is your job and your work is your hobby, they say. But there is a single quality both men share--iti- s their ability to delegate responsibility and keep on top of their obligations by organizing their time. rs Both bishops are outdoors-meand take time for vacations with their families and friends and churchmen. For n, example, Bishop Featherstone has run the Middle Fork of the Salmon River in Idaho every summer for several years with his Boy Scout Troop and Explorer post in Boise, Idaho, and is no amateur on the river. He also camps out with his family, participating in swimming and other athletics with his five boys, luevre all really outdoors-mehe said.
