A number of years ago as a 9th grade sunday school teacher i gave my students a home work assignment in ethics. I reviewed the ethical dilemma in class and essentially asked if they thought they were their brother's keeper--making my position clear. The assignment was ---"what would you do if a retail clerk gave you more change than you were entitled to"-- essentially indicating -----the clerk made a mistake. During my next sunday session I asked for their responses. I cannot recall the numbers--but many-- actually too many 9th graders said that their dad/mom said I was wrong and that the responsibility was with the person/clerk who mistakenly paid out too much change... and that they were somehow entitled to the "extra" payment.

If studied.. the undeniable fact is that these somewhat primitive peoples had a significantly greater degree of honor and integrity than we do in our present form. We have amongst us, rather primitive, uneducated and weak minds who don't fear the Lord and certainly can't be accused of being honorable.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
