RELIGION

DON'T BURY YOUR TALENT8

"Power corrupts; absolute pow- er corrupts absolutely"-an old saying that has far too many his- toric examples in its support.

One reason why "absolute pow- er corrupts absolutely” is that those who possess it feel that they can never be called to account for their deeds.

Hitler would never have done many things that he did if he had realized that he would be brought to book for his crimes.

In common with the tyrants of the past he felt himself supreme. the one who would call others to give account to him.

In this folly Hitler was not alone; there are too many on the ordinary walks of life who feel that they are free to use all that they have to gratify their own desires, ignoring the reckmlnx that is sure to come.

Jesus dealt with this tendency in His parable of the talents. We have been surprised lately to hear of the n mber of people who nev- er heard of this parable. one of the most significant that Jesus

ever Have. At that time Jesus was facing the inevitable separation be-

tween Himself and His followers, and was .-ying to awaken them to the realities of the situation. So He told them this story.

A certain rich man was Icing away on a long journey. So he called his servants and put his money into their hands, depend- ing on them to use his resources in his interests.

lie gave to each man according to his ability. To one he gave five talents. an enormous sum in the currency of that day: to an- other two talents and to another l one.

He did not instruct them to do this and to avoid doing that. lie trusted them to use their own initiative and ability and accept responsibility for the result. He was away long enough to test 8ilt'll man's fidelity and energy.

Then he returned unexpectedly and called for an account from each man of the use he had made of the money extrusted to him. REPRESENTS "ENIUS ..

The five-talent man had made live talents more. He represents lthe genius, the one who can do what no one else can do. There are always very few of them, but how we long for them in the great crisis of history. For in- stance. in the two world wars.

And how many we have, had in our time - Churchill, in states- manship, Eisenhower in war and now in p.:ce, Ghandi who used .lesus' Sermon on the Mount to

set a lub-continent free, Einstein in science, Karl Barth in theo- logy, Schweitzer and John R. Mott in Christian missions-what a galaxy of genius in one genera- tion! God raises up such men, each for a specific purpose. and God has not forgotten His people.

The in entrusted with the two talents made two talents more. He received the same comme..dation and the same re- ward as the man who out of five made five. God judges us not by what He gives us, but by the use we make of our talents.

The two-talent man represents 'the person of ordinary abilities who makes an extraordinary use of them. This verage man does by far the main part. of the wor' work. v THE COMMONPLACE

As Theodore ,Roosevelt o n cc said:-"In public "life. it is not genius, it is not extraordinary subtlety or acuteness of intellect that is important. The things that ar important are the rather commonplace, the rather hum- drum virtues that in their sum are designated as character. It you have in public life men of good ability, not geniuses. but men of good abilities with charac- ter-and. gentlemen, you must in- clude commonsense as one of the most important elements in char- acter-the government will go on very well."

Of course, he meant ordinary men for ordinary times. it is in the crises of history that genius finds his place. But in ordinary conditions, it is the man of sub- stantial quality who is needed.

In the parable, it was the one- talent man who buried his talent in the earth. The severest sen- tence was pronounced on him. In this connection, it was useless- ness that was the king of offenses. This man did not squander his talent, as did the prodigal son. He did not spend it on himself as did the rich 'men of Luke's par- ables. he just refused to do any- thing with it.

Somehow one feels that Jesus

had this man particidariy in mind 1

on this occasion. It is the one- talent man who is tempted to

bury his talent in the earth. The l

five-talent man will always be; in demand. ,0n life's ordinary! levels, the man of substantial

character who can be counted on .

to see what is needed and to accept responsibility for meeting it will surely find his place. But the man with the gifts lower than the averale who finds difficulty in doing a.'.ytI1ing that when his best is" done, gets little appreciation and much criticism. is inclined to say:-"What's the

Gov'i Budgetary Surplus Climbs. Slalemenl Shows

tripled its budgetary surplus to 890,614,000 in the first month of the 1956-57 fiscal year.

in his first monthly treasury statement of the new year, Finance Minister Harris reported Friday that the increase in federal reve- ues shot well ahead of the rise in expenditures, boosting the April surplus by 858,095,000 from last year's 332,519,000.

Mr. Harris is aiming at an over all surplus for 1956-57 of 8113.000.- 000, compared with a deficit of t'3l,700.000 last year.

In April, revenues rose by 366,- 359.000 to 8295,371.000 from 3229,- 0l2,000 a year ago. increased by 88,264,000 to 8204.757,- 000 from 8196,493,000.

INCOME TAXES UP

Major revenue gains were rolled up in the field of corporation and personal income taxes, import du-

not quit trying"

But even if his part is small, it is necessary for the perfection of the whole.

Once in an orchestra. the man with the piccolo felt that he could not be heard, and as the f1llISl(' moved up to its climax. he stop- ped playing. Immediatcly the hands of "ie conductor went up, and as everyone stopped. he ask- ed-”Where's the piccolo."

”Trifl( make perfection, but perfection is no trifle." 0nc's part may be small. but without it the music of the spheres is in- complete.
