Ted Moszkowski donated a Valentine's cake to the Auxil- iary, which was decorated with roses and the Legion crest.

Mrs. Morris Swanson, Fred Lee and Barry Gibson provided music for dancing. cension, the eleven Apostles returned to Jerusalem and met with about 120 members of the mother church there. Here we have a picture of the Presbytery of Jerusalem with Simon Peter as moderator, meeting in a democratic way with the rank and file of the Jerusalem mem- bers to elect a successor to the arch traitor and chief of sinners, Judas Iscariot. Peter relates the revolting death of Judas in de- tail. As a matter of fact, the tragic and untimely death of Judas is the only death of an Apostle that we have in detail in the New Testament. St. Peter, as moderator, lays down two qualifications that the candidates must have. First, they must be very famil- iar with the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ during his public ministry. Secondly, they must be personal witnesses to the resurrection. Thus, in a strict sense, there can be no successors to the apostles in the Christian world today. Two prominent members of the Jerusalem Church were nom- inated. These were Matthias and Joseph Barsabas. After pray- er was offered for divine guid- ance by one of the eleven, the election took place and Matth- ias was declared the winner. Politicians tell us today that elections are not won by prayer but this one was. As a result of the election Matthias took his place as the twelfth apostle. Sad to relate his name never occurs in the New Testament after his elec- tion. It does not follow, how- ever, that he was a nobody. Of his later life we know nothing. A thick cloud of ob- scurity rests upon his mission- ary life and labors. He doubt- less was faithful to the end and sealed his testimony with his blood. COOK ALL PORK THOROUGHLY Trichinosis is a disease that infects pigs that are fed uncook- ed garbage. It can be passed on to humans who eat raw infect- ed port, such as the makers of sausages or pork byproducts, who taste the raw meat for sea- soning purposes, or those who do not cook the infected meat thoroughly.
