ISSUED EVERY MORNING BY THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE PUBLISHING CO. Salt Lake City, Utah, Sunday Morning, July 28, 1935. Faith, Self Respect and Tolerance FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen, wrote Paul, of Tarsus, to the Hebrews. By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went, not knowing whither he went; by faith he sojourned in a land of promise, in a strange country. As defined by the great apostle, faith does not seem to mean sectarian conviction, nor patiently waiting for something better, nor the fanatical certainty of bigotry. It evidently refers to self reliance, confidence in ones rectitude and sincere trust in a guiding influence leading to a higher destiny. Alone it is inadequate and ineffectual. It must be combined with honest purpose, intelligent effort and a spirit of tolerance and charity for those less favored or less enlightened. Faith without works is dead, said the Apostle James. There must be something more than a mere profession of belief in any plan or promise in order to give faith a practical value. Though I have faith so that I could remove mountains, said Paul to the Corinthians, and have not charity, I am nothing. The charity to which Saint Paul referred has been variously defined as meaning love or tolerance. It seems to partake of the excellence of both sentiments. Though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor (charity) and have not charity (love or sympathy) it profiteth me nothing. Charity suffereth long and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up; doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; beareth all things; believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. This is tolerance which the apostle, writing to the Corinthians, a proud and independent people at all times, was urging them to cultivate. Zotiac: Aquarius. The Water Bearer. Second month. From the Latin Februarius, the month of purification. Roman festival of purification held February 15. Introduction in Roman calendar by Numa. Diseases most prevalent: Same as in January. Also lobar pneumonia, eczema, psoriasis, pylorospasm spasmophilia, tetany, chorea minor, rickets, appendicitis (in some localities). Opposition, ostracism, persecution or ridicule often banishes every impulse of friendliness and tendency toward tolerance. It may happen that people exiled by tyranny establish a despotism of their own; sometimes they flee from oppression to become creed bound bigots; their salvation from morbid moroseness and clannish inhospitality depends upon a sense of humor and a flare for amusement. The animosities behind the exodus of the founders of Nauvoo, the hardships endured in crossing the plains and mountains, the privations they suffered in the first years of their colonization, the hostility encountered by their early missionaries were enough to rob a robust congregation of the saving grace of tolerance. In many individual cases it undoubtedly did. But the tripartite interests of a sturdy people worship, work and recreation kept them together and endowed their posterity with a liberality of thought and spirit which is a characteristic of Utah. To almost every section of this country pioneers carried a rugged individualism which overcame far greater difficulties than their descendants have ever had to face. It was so in New England, in Manhattan, on the River James, along the Ohio, beyond the Mississippi, on the wind swept prairies, in the rock bound valleys of the west, and everywhere else that persistense, intelligence and industry have combined to win rewards of success. Behind every tree and boulder lurked death and danger in those days. Each stood for all and all for each. Rugged individualism alone would have lost the battle if it hadnt merged into cooperation. In pioneering days there were problems, but not of unemployment. There were emergencies and mutual aid movements, but no doles nor government relief, except in the distribution of public lands. Dependence was something for which to apologize and laziness was a crime that called for punishment. We need the spirit and pride of the early pioneers in this country today as much as we need anything to restore prosperity. If some plan could be devised or course of treatment prescribed to arouse in the millions of Americans on dole or relief the latent sparks of pride, self respect and self confidence, their greatest inheritance from earlier ancestors, it would be worth more than an outlay of 4,000,000,000 to the country now and henceforth. UNINHABITABLE HELENA will be declared uninhabitable if the destructive shocks continue much longer. Eight people have died and millions of dollars in property have been destroyed. No city in America has had a more harrowing experience than the capital of Montana.
