The Other Sheep OCTOBER 1951 —“For their rock is not as our Rock . (Deut. 32:31) 'JpHis picture shows our Indian worker, Rev. Decker Yazzie, a full­ blood Navajo who is stationed at Low Mountain in northern Ari­ zona. The rock is supposed to be the image of a giant who lived long ago. Since they believe certain death will come to them before the day is over to punish them for going near it, the Navajos fear the awesome stone. Brother Yazzie tried to convince the people of the folly of believ- irig this old story and climbed on the rock. The day passed and nothing happened. The Indians were greatly puzzled. Then an old, wise man found the answer. He said, “The Chindee [the evil spirit | fears this man of God and he has no power over him." But he continued, “If I or someone else had done this, we would have died that same day.” Yes, this happened in the United States of America, not in a heathen land far away. Our poor, darkened Indian people need the message of our Lord. He saves from the power of the evil one. Thank God for the many who are finding Him. There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God (I Samuel 2: 2).

  • The Marathon the London–Sydney Marathon Rally First Took Place in 1968
    newsroom History Oct 8, 2015 The Marathon The London–Sydney Marathon rally first took place in 1968. Now a brave Porsche 911 S is coming home. Amore unusual 911—from the Porsche factory, at any rate—has never been seen. The gently flowing body of the early years is bedecked with pipes and prison bars, the elegant roof is packed to the hilt with tires and canisters, and the rear sports a bizarre set of exhaust geometry. It takes a bit of imagination to grasp the beauty of the sculpture, perhaps by finding in it the promise of unexpected adventures. Motor racing in Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India in 1968 was a decidedly bold undertaking. No exercise in tourism So where did this adventurous spirit come from? England. Notwithstanding all their enthusiasm for these areas of the world, their eccentricities, and their proud tradition of sportsmanship, one thing had to be clear: this was no exercise in tourism, but motor racing at the highest level. The lion’s share of the 98 starters had outfitted themselves with extensively customized factory cars from seven nations, including some old favorites such as BMC, Simca, Hillman, Moskvitch, and DAF. One thing was reasonably certain: the borders in conflict zones would re-open for the first time in ages; the Daily Express and the Sydney Telegraph, as sponsors of the event, had done their diplomatic homework. Codriver pros John Davenport and Gunnar Palm were charged with putting together a roadbook; and in cases of doubt, they showed a strong predilection for flexi•bility: whether to take the northern route (over the Elburz Mountains) or the southern one (through the desert) between Tehran and Kabul was the prerogative of each team.
