Rambling With Lucy
(Lacy/4. Woods) \
Maybe the prayers of the people of India and Nepal
have averted a world catastrophe! The World was supposed
to come 'to an end on February 4 or 5! It probably will in
God's good time. What is it the Bible says: "In the twink-
ling of an eye."
So it may be that if we go on eating, drinking and
building in our own conceit, thinking that by our own
might and influence we can accomplish our own desires,
it may come very suddenly for us-individually, or as the
peoples on this old earth.
God said to the rich man who planned greater and
better buildings and increased wealth: "Thou fool, this night
thy soul shall be required of thee; then whose shall these
things which thou halt provided,"
With the Earth and Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and
Saturn, rambling around together in direct line with the
sun, it could well be that natural atomic explosions might
knock this old earth off its axis. (Haven't astrologers seen
a very bright light?)
And if that happened we'd certainly rise up in the air to
meet our Maker for there'd be no gravity to hold us on our
individual rocks.
That's what might happen. But other lesser calamities
must be considered, too, such as an atomic war, crash of
the stock market, etc., etc.
Nikita Khrushchev has said of the North American con-
tinent: "I'll bury you!" And judging by past events, there
was more truth than levity in his statement. But Nildta
Khrushchev, while he has great power, is a man, not God.
And we have had plenty of time to be prepared. Are we?
Or are we sitting ducks?
Remember that it was the Soviet Union which broke
the moratorium on nuclear testing. The USA didn't test
in three years. In that time the Communists caught up and
passed the United States and British scientists, so they came
right out with a 100 megaton bomb explosion in the atmos-
phere. It was done, to use a slang expression, "to scare the
daylights out of us."
Fear of fallout from these tests. has gripped many. But
Dr. Edward Teller, famous atomic scientist claims that it is
infinitesimal compared to natural radiation, x-rays, luminous
dial clocks and wrist watches, television, etc. It's a comfort-
ing thought.
It has been Lucy's observation ever since the Bolshevik
Revolution that when the USSR leaders cry "Peace! Peace!"
there is some deviltry afoot.
But if we aren't "sitting ducks" what are we doing in
Canada?
As individuals in a nation we can pray for peace and
that our leaders will be guided in the right methods to
attain it.
As individual members of this nation we can do our
best to fulfil the plan the government has for emergency
measures.
One of the first items of the plan is for every household
to keep two weeks supply of tinned food on hand always.
Then wherever possible we should build and equip emer-
gency fallout shelters.
Don't say: "I don't believe in them." "What good will
they be if we do live in them for two weeks, if we come out
to face the result of contamination by fallout." "To what
kind of living will we come out?"
Don't wait to see. Many in Britain might still be
alive if they'd heeded the government's advice in 1939 to
build air raid shelters.
It is important that we work together in following some
plan, and learn as we go along with EMO exercises to meet
any disaster.
The Boy Scout motto is "Be Prepared". Let us be good
Scouts and hope for the best.
