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. I determined then that there was little hope for the human race. Honor and integrity had fallen to blatant self interest and greed. I told the pastor that religion had failed-- and left teaching sunday school which I had been doing for 18 years. Am I surprised at what is happing?? not at all I saw it coming almost 15 years ago. We as a society look upon the native indians as savages-- primitive peoples who are unworthy of our esteem. 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.

Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
