Swing's King is Sick of Jitterbugs

THE King of Swing is dead; long live the King of Swing. Burly young Artic Shaw has snapped his clarinet across his knee and says he'll play no more.

He says jitterbugs make him sick.

So the new King of Swing is an equally burly, spectacled twenty- nine-year-old Towan named Glenn Miller. Its fans call him Killer- Diller Miller.

Mr. Miller Lakes the crown from Mr. Shaw by playing the trombone to please the multitude more than even the great Tommy Dorsey. To use the swing slang-His slip horn sends themL.

That is how God forgives ant that is why the action was justly described as Christ-like. God not only cancels the wrong: le be stows power to do right,'

For the quality of Divine for- giveness ate Matthew 18. 23-27; Luke 15, 7, 10, 21-23. But see also Luke 17. 3-1, and remember (Matthew G. 12) that God expects and commands us to show the same abundant forgiveness to others.
