Army greatcoats use up 40 miles •
of cloth and lining a week in a
. single Leeds factory where one
garment, is completed every three
seconds. This workshop and an-
other which has turned out 320,000 •
battledresses a week are using
every week enough cotton to go
three times round the equator.
• Tiiese are only two of the 258
tailoring firms who were given the
largest single clothing order ever
placed - for 5,000,000 battledress
blouses and 6;000,000• trousers.
That meant 9,000 miles oY cloth,.
adsorbing 10,000 `tons . tyf wool;
9,000 miles .of lining, and ' 200,000,-
000 brass' buttons;" A, week later, .
1,150,000 army greatcoats Were -or- '

WOMEN JOIN INDUSTRIAL PARAn
Not long ago this attractive Canadian girl looked upon a file as
something used solely to manicure her nails. Today, after joining
thousandsof other, girls in war industries; she can handle a file as
deftly as any man -in turning out parts • in . an aircraft factory. It is
estimated that between"50,000 and '75,000 women are now employed
in industrial war work. Thousands more will be, required to cope
with manpower requirements'as industry expands and men' enlist.
• Jesus Final Word
16. "And ;said unto' him, Hear -
est thou what these are s'aymgl
And Jesus:saith unto them, 'Yea:
did you never read, Out of the
Mouths of babes and ,.sucklings
thou hest 'perfected praise?' . 17.
And • He left them, and .went
forth out: of the city of., Bethany,
and lodged there." The quota='
tion here is found in 'Psalm 8:2.
We should' never miss the• signif-
icance of the fact, that Jesus was
able to . quote Scriptures upon
every ''occasion.. What He did He ,
did in the light of the Old Testa
.ment. ' He seemed,' not only by
•
life, but - by lila -very, .acts-
and utterances, to fullfil'the pro-
nou.lcements' of '..the Old Testa
ment Scriptures.. The Son of God
rose up' in their midst and con-
delnned • all for their ,bar-
renness in the place of fruitful- •
ness"and for apassion .for money.

Claim Treachery,
Hefted. Japanese
Burmese "treachery" enabled
the Japanese to surround the Chi-
nese defenders, of Toungoo,, two
Americans said on their return
to Chungking from the central
Burma war zone. ''II
The Americans -said actihbiti.es of
Burmese "traitors" •were one of
the most important problems fac-
ing the United Nations forces de-
fending Burma: Steps are being'
taken, they said, to round up '
known pro.- 'apaneee native`•' and
to remove: thousands of Burmese
from military areas to reduce the
menace.
At Toungoo, according to in-
formation the Ainerican travelers
obtained , from . military sources,.
Burmese learned that Chinese
were to replace British • in'' certain
sectors. The infglnnation was -re-
' layed
e'.,rayed to• the Japanese attacking •'•
force. At the time the transfer
was_ being' effected, the Japanese
knifed their 'way in through tem-. .
porarily '•unguaeded • points and
surrounded the Chinese force.
Only the courageous stand • of the
Chinese prevented heavy •losses:
The incident was the ino'st .re •
-
c.erit. of the many which have been
related of Burmese "treachery"
eincei the war entered the British
controlled . state:
On -the other hand, units such as
the "Burmese Rifles" fought' for
the Allies along. the Sittang:river .•
and in the defence of Rangoon
before the. Allied withdrawal:
3apaii spehYt years* Peepagenclizte
ing Bi rma, using doctors and den-
tists to cultivate' the .natives and'
establish pro -Japanese centres . in
the nation.:
After the fall of Singapore and
the opening of the Burma carn-
paign, Allied de,fenders,constantly
found Burmese guiding Japanese
patrols, sheltering Japanese ad-
vance ' parties, and giving what
' aid theycould to the ' enemy.
Burmese even' joined the Japan-
ese army... .
. Cleansing The Temple
13. And he saith-'into them
It is written, 'My •house 'shall be
called a house of prayer: but ye
• make: it a den of rob'bers." The -se
men did not know god. They
named His name and studied His
law but all the • while thetd knew •,
'nothing of God: Because they did
not know .God there was Cortes-.
ponding ,failure in their eelation-
shily, to their fellow=men, . They •
were robbers of •God.. •
Healing The Afflicted '
14. "And the blind • and the .
lame came to. hint in the temple,
and He. healed ,them: ' 15. But
when • the ,.chief priest and the
scribes saw the 'wonderful things .
that , I•l:e' did, and. the children
•that were hying in the temple
and saying.'Hosanna to, the Son
of David', they were moved with
indigihation.''.-Many afflicted pet=.
sons were dpubtless t'o', be seen
in the temple courts, asking alms
or seeking consolation in Wor-
ship. The. miraculdus healings,
then and there, served to •estab-
lish Jesus' authority to cleanse •
the temple, and in the same sense
reeoneecrated the courts which
had been profaned. The • scribes
and' the Pharisees aught to have
been led to `earnest inquiry .here.
He tvho thus asserted .authority
'and tvrtiught miracles and'allowed
himself to be hailed ,as the Son of
David watt indeed the Messiah.
They rejected' the idea without ,
••inquiry, athd *ere indignant at the
'apparent claim. ee
