With the death of Albert ematiciari, the medical author-
Schweitzer ten. days ago another ity. In any of thele calling
hero of the Faith has been call- or all of them, he could lye
ed home to his fathers. It will been a man -in -great -demand'',, 1l1
be diil'iclt to fully assess the over Europe and .America. But,
he subjected all his God-given
contribution Dr. Schweitzer blessings into this one field of
made to our world with to -human endeavor: "!helping the
nuclear bombs and continuing crying soul in despair. If this
strife, but one thing we do is not Christian, what ` is?
know is that he dedicatedly gave, Schweitzer had said, "We are not
himself without stint to the alone in this world of ours, our
uplift of. humanity. One of the -
most touching things- lie ever"µ
said was in reply to the. ques-
tion,-' "But why did you, choose
Africa?" It was this, "They
needed a doctor there." These
are not high-flown words at all,
but sincere, down-to-earth syl-
lables that show the clarity of
his thinking and of his faith.
Where there was a need there
he went. His surroundings were
primitive; his methods more
like 1913 than 1965; but, his
enuine compassion for mankind
was revealed in the touch of
this .physician. His was a heal-
ing ministry. Taking his know-
ledge of the medical profession
and infusi 3L it with Christian,
charity he reached out for the
downtrodden herds of this
earth. His -talents were channel-
ed into this one great obsession:
to aid those who were in need
of aid.
