Heaven Is Real
Easter Lesson for April 17, 1949
Symbol Of Integrity
tjEAVEN IS just as real as Chi-
cago. More so, because Chicago
will in time cease to be, while
heaven lasts forever. A few atomic
bombs, a whiff of _
some new plague,
can make Chicago ■<.
atomic bomb can
touch heaven. The
Christians really be-
lieve this. We can
get mail from Chi-
cago, but who ever
heard of mail from
T^aven?
Wait,' though . . . there is mail
from heaven, and you have it there
in your Bible. If you accept it for,
what it is, the Word of God, then it
is the Word from heaven. To be
sure, it does not tell us much about ( ^
heaven . If you were actually trav- re-
eling to Chicago, you would not •
begin by studying a street-map of
that city. What you would need is ~§
a map of the roads between.
So the Bible is not a guide- ^
book to the “City Four-Square;” yg
it is more of a road-map to help
us* find the way between here
and there. Nevertheless, the Bi-
ble does assure us that heaven
is real. i©
Christians have many reasons for -|>j|
believing in the reality of the future
life, and some of these may not be 3^
in the Bible; but the best reasons
are there. ^
Not so familiar today is the ornate glass jar that
used to appear in every pharmacist’s window. Yet
the integrity it symbolized is still reflected in the qual
ity drugs and carefully compounded prescriptions of
your Bonham Drug Co. pharmacist.

Jesus Believed It #§5
WTINIFRED KIRKLAND has truly -f§
” said that Jesus did not simply ij®
believe in immortality; he lived it.
Jesus would never have called this ^
world or this life trifling or unim- |
portant. But all around, under and 1 i©
over and through this visible world, I
Jesus was aware of another. He "^9
lived and acted as a citizen of both '
worlds. He talked of life after death
—or for that matter, of his own life
before his birth—as calmly and nat- yp
urally as you would speak of next -£§5
week or next summer. A®

RENT CONTROL DEFINITIONS
In answer to many queries from
Grayson and Fannin counties’ land-
lords, Areg Rent Director, Andrew
E. Gilbert, has defined the action
to be taken by owners whose Rent-
al property is recontrolled or
■brought under rent control for the
first time by the n'ew Federal Rent
Control Act.
Rent Control applies now to all
rental housing units which were
previously decontrolled because they
were not rented for any successive
24-month period between Feb-
ruary 1, 1945 and March 30, 1948.
Landlords have until April 30 to
register any 'of those units
which were never under rent
control. Previously registered
units need not b e registered,
but the owners are advised
to show the Tegisteration state-
ments to " the present tenant.
The landlord cannot charge more
than the maximum rent shown in
the registration statement, , plus or
minus approved adjustments.
Landlords may obtain assistance
in preparing registration statements
at the local rent ' office located at
206^2 South Travis Street, Sher-
man, Texas. The registration forms
will be mailed out on written
request or by a telephone call to
470.
Also recontrolled are all accom-
modations which were decontrolled
because a 1947 voluntary rent in-
crease lease was terminated prior
to April 1, 1948. These are now
recontrolled at their old lease rent
and the landlord must file a re-
port of termination statement with
the Area Rent Office by April 15,
unless he has previously filed such
a report. Accommodations covered
by leases which expired or term-
inated on or after " April 1, 1948,
have been and still are subject to
rent control.
Trailers and trailer spaces which
on April 1, 1949, were not used
•exclusively for transient occupancy,
are again subject to rent control.
A trailer or trailer space is con-
sidered to have been used ex-
clusively for transient occupancy
on April 1 if it was rented on a
daily basis to a tenant and then
only if th^ tenant had not been in
continuous occupancy since March
1, 1949. Hereafter, rents or fees
for increased services on recon-
trolled units may be charged only
on order of the Area Rent Director.
The rental rate for recontrolled
trailer accommodations will be the
last maximum rent in effect under
Federal Rent Control, which was
not later than January 4, 1948.
Any trailer unit which did not
have a maximum rent in effect on
or before January 4, 1948, must be
. registered with the Area Rent
: Office by April 30, 1949, at the
'rent .first charged after January 4,
1948.

Christ is Risen
lUTANY PEOPLE feel it would be ig
^ easier to believe in the future
life if someone who had been across , |©
the line of death would return j i&tj
across that line to bring a message 4^
from the beyond. So they attend
seances and they listen to table- j
tappings and go through all manner j ^
of weird performances in order to i©
get a word or two from someone J®
who has passed on.
But all the time we do have a ^
record of a Return. Indeed it is ■&§
The Return. We call it the ig
Resurrection. The message of
Easter is not summed up in
songs about some “Beautiful ■§§
Isle of Somewhere;” it is in iStJj
these three words: “Christ is —I
risen!”
He did not return in darkness, he X
was not under the control of any $
“medium,” he did not make him- 1 X
self known by ghostly hauntings. He 1
was seen at supper^tables, he spoke X
to his friends on a mountainside, he j \
came to fishermen on a spring j X
morning by a lake shore. The ear- , $
liest Christians doubted some j $
things; but few doubted that the v .
Lord was risen indeed. A

Heaven Begins With God
rpHE CURE for the troubled heart,
* Jesus said, is faith in God. One j
of the strongest reasons for believ- j
ing that the future life is real, is the
nature and character of God him- j
self. Jesus said as much once, in an
argument with men who did not ,
believe in immortality: “God is not j
the God of the dead, but of
the living.” If we were God’s
paper dolls or toy soldiers, he might
weary of us as a child wearies of ;
its toys, and sweep us all into de- (
struction without a moment’s
thought. But if we are truly his !
children, then when life’s evening ■
comes, he will call his tired child- |
ren home.
Eternal Life has two sides,
the heaven-side and the earth-
side. The church, has never be-
lieved that simple immortality
is the same thing as the heaven-
ly life.
A Judas, when he dies, goes (as
Peter saidly said) “to his own !
place.” A Judas carries out his own j
hell with him. But a man like Paul,
or any Christian who has been at j
home with God here on this earth, j
when at last death comes, will, as !
Whittier said: !
“Find himself by hands fa-
miliar beckoned
Unto his fitting place.”
