An A&M University sociologist
believes that some of modern man’s
frustrations stem from both a con
scious and subconscious search for
absolutes in a world saturated with
relatives.
Relatives in this case are not
aunts and uncles and cousins and
in-laws, although there are plenty
of those kind around. When Dan
R. Davis of the Department of
Agricultural Economics and So-'
ciology speaks of relatives, he
means situations that are hard to
nail down when the only hammer
available is opinion.
The sociologist tries to head off
such notions with a short lecture
that he calls, “Down Is Up.”
“The individual seeks absolutes
among cultures often without re
alizing that he is constantly sur
rounded by considerations that are
relative,” the educator says.
More vexation arises when situ
ations tend to be pictured as eith
er black or white and good and
bad.
“Many fail to realize that few
things are all black or all white,
all good or all bad,” Davis ex
plains. “Little consideration is giv
en to the many shades of gray
existing between blacks and

whites.”
Such absolutes as up and down,
he points out, become more elas
tic when a person considers that
the earth revolves and is not
flat. What is up at noon is down
at midnight, and that which was
down is now up.
He says the horizontal concept
of up and down is common in this
country with such terms as “up
north” and “down south.” But
“down Egypt” refers to the north
ern portion of the nation, and “up
Egypt” refers to the southern por
tion.
Such ups and downs are as
sociated with river flow direction.
In the U. S., the Mississippi runs
south. Egypt’s Nile River flows
north.
“In a world where both social
and physical things may be rela
tive, absolutes are rare despite
the slide rule, electronic computer
and other hardware of technicians,”
Davis says.

THE CHURCH FOR ALL
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest
factor on earth for the build
ing of character and good
citizenship. It is a storehouse
of spiritual values. Without
a strong church, neither
democracy nor civilization
can survive. There are four
sound reasons why every
person should attend services
regularly and support the
church. They are: (1) For his
own sake. (2) For his chil
dren’s sake. (3) For the sake
of his community and nation.
(4) For the sake of the church
itself, which needs his moral
and material support. Plan
to go to church regularly
and read your Bible daily.
“Don’t forg-et Tippy’s treat!” Even if we’re a bit
late leaving for church, Susan and Mark must take
their paper bag of surprises for Tippy the squirrel.
Tippy lives in the park beside the church, and he’s
one of many happy, heart-warming things that our
family looks forward to on Sundays.
We are rearing our children in the Christian faith
because we know from our own experience how much
it means to young people growing up. Without a right
sense of values, youngsters are so likely to get into
trouble.
Already Susan and Mark are learning to trust
in the loving protection of God, and to turn to Him
with their little problems. Through the stories of
Jesus they are beginning to understand what it means
to follow Him. We pray that this childhood pattern
will strengthen and form a steadfast foundation for
the whole of their lives. No parents could ask for more.
