He Vltllk I rich prize and uses it to build a hospital for leperii - such is the spirit of the man.

Schweitzer's contribution Ihinos at individual achievement; John R Mott's for the multitude of luiiiily gifted Ind highly trained ml"fl and woman whom he enlisted and led in I great cause.

Take just two facts II on- ainples. First. the church of Hlfllf is established in every land uith only three exceptions.

If constructive genius plus vis- ion and inspiration mean great- ness of soul it is hard to surpass these men.

Then there is Gandhi who with pure spiritual influence inspired India's hundreds of millions and led I sub-continent into freedom. To recognize his greatness is not to say I word against all that Britain did for India when she could do nothing for herself, but an awakened nation has I right to decide her own destiny. Among those who claimed this right for their people Gandhi in one of the brightest stars.

They say that be paved the way for the atomic bomb and then was heart-broken that his discov- ery was turned to destructive pur- poses. And now we how our heads in gratitude to God for one of the nughtiest men He ever Ient us. The church to which I belong expects hor ministers to be called of God to their sacred task. She also teaches that the Holy Spirit's call to the individual must be recognized by those to whom he is to minister, Ind confirm by their call to minister to them in holy things.

1955 Hurricane Season Opens

MIAMI. Fla. (AP) - who will' he Miss Hurricane of1955 - Brcnda'.' Stella? Yvonne?

Regardless of which tropical storm cuts tii; widest swalh. it will have I bi and new name.

Alice. I rare out-of-season crea- ture and the first hurricane of 1955, came too early and for that reason she was given the same name as the first of 1954.

Those still to come will have names selected by a committee of navy, air force and weather bu- reau officials to avoid confusion with storms already on record. NOT LADYLIKE

Hurricanes are totally tinlady- like creatures. and giving them fcniiniiie names created something of a rlisltirbancc itself last year after Carol. Edna and Hazel brought death to 279 persons and property damage totalling more than Sl.000.000.000. All three raked the northeastern United States and eastern Canada after whirling up from the tropics. 1

This year's Alice was far less formidable. She popped up in Jan- uary to lash the Caribbean islands of the Lesser Antilles with 75 mph. winds.

The next hurricane will be named Brenda. Her successors will called Connie. Diane, Edith, Flora. Gladys. Hilda. Iona. Janet, Katie, Linda. Martha, Nelly, Orva. Peggy, Queena, Rosa, Stella, Trudy. Prsa. Vcrna, Wilma. Xonia, Yvonne and Zelda - if the season runs that long. Last year the list stopped with Hazel.

FIVE-MONTH SEASON The normal hurricane season runs from June I5 to Nov. 15. Gordon Dunn. chief forecaster of the storm warning service, here, said: "We intend as I regular pro- cedure to place areas under I hur- rlcance alert when I storm threat- ens and is 36 to 48 hours away." "An alert is not I warning, but merely tells the public to keep in touch with future advisories. "Actual hurricane w I r it i n g s. whenever practical, will be given 12 to 24 hours in advance. There are instances when these Itorms generate clone to I coastline Ind sweep across within 12 hours. At other times they lay along until caught in I jet stream, then

"In such circumstances shorter warning periods may occur but in general I minimum deadline of 12 hours for warnings can he met."
