VICTORIOUS DAILY LIVING
II Corinthians xi:18-30; xii:8-10
Memory Verse: My brethren,
count it all joy when ye fall into
divers temptations: knowing this
that the trying of your faith work-
eth patience. But let patience have
her perfect work, that ye may be
perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
James i:2-4.
Saul was a persecutor of the
early Church. He said, "Many of the
saints did I shut up in prison, having
received authority front the chief
priests; and when they were put
to death, i gave my voice against
theta. And I punished them oft in
every synagogue, and compelled
them to blaspheme; and being ex-
ceedingly mad against diem, I per-
secuted them unto strange cities."
Acts xxvi:10,11. That this matt was
converted and was willing to suffer
as outlined in today's lesson for
the sake of Jesus Christ, is a great
miracle. But there are modern mar-
tyrs too. Rev. Hanns Liije, a Luth-
eran pastor, suffered severely at the
hands of the Gestapo. Moved to an-
other prison where his death seem-
ed imminent, he reached new depths
of spiritual and physieal suffering.
He writes, "At this period of my
life I began to understand that God
can only reveal His mercy to a
man who is in the depths of suffer-
ing and desolation. Hence one whom
God has led into this school of
knowledge can only praise Him for
this experience, as the most won-
derful gift that, he has ever re-
ceived."
There has been a lot of specula-
tion concerning Paul's thorn. \Vhen
Paul prayed, (god did not remove
the thorn, but He gave him grace
to hear it. That was better. In
Paul's. weakness due to the thorn,
God had a better opportunity to
demonstrate His strength. If Fanny
Crosby's eyes hadn't been closed
to the light of the sun, we wouldn't
have received so many wonderful
hymns as—
"Blessed assurance. Jesus is mine!
Oh, what a foretaste of glory
divine!
Heir of salvation, purchased of
God,
Born of Idis Spirit, washed in
FIi, blood."
'We, through. can lire victoriously,

We thought it was going to be
so quiet around here with Boll away.
Quiet .. , we have 'boost forgotten
what the word means! Who could
be quiet with the wind howling the
way it has been this week. But for
us that is only half the story.
* * *
For a long time Partner has want-
ed thecows deitorned but somehow
or other it never seemed to get
done. Recently we had a sick cow—
and Partner was still cherishing a
sore shoulder as a result of getting
hooked with one of the cow's horns
while dosing her, So he told me if
I ever' saw the fellow down town
who dors dehorning to tell him we
had some cow's for )tint to do—we
couldn't call hila, as he had no tele-
phone. It was Wednesday morn-
ing , , , I did see hint . Wednes-
day night we had ,tine cows minus
their horns. It doesn't take long
to tell it—but horns are a risky
business, whichever way you look
at it, Keep horns on the cows and
they are likely to hook each other
and cause rupture—or something
worse, Take the horns off and you
stand a chance of having a cow
bleed to death, And these days if
you lose a cow it really hurts.
Well, I 'ant thankful to say we did
not run into any serious ;trouble
although one tow did bleed quite
a bit, Inciting cow, while being
dehorned, broke her .chant and al-
. most got away. Incidentally, each
cow had her horns tied at, the base
to prevent bleeding. Some think
this a wise precaution, some clo not,
I did not see any of the actual de -
horning but I was ,watching in the
background—opening and shutting
doors and gates,- watching to see
that no harnn'befetl each cow .as it
was turned loose after its
5' * *
When the job was completed the
"horn surgeon" gathered up all the
horns and threw theta outside and
was in quite a way because there
was one horn that he could not
find. "Don't 'bother—it's
tramped into the gutter," said Part-
ner. But no, that horn had to be
found. Why? Because superstition
demanded it. Pick up the horns
end throw them out in the cold and
the cow will be all right. Let them
lie where they drop and the cow
stay bleed to death. We were told
that one farmer scoffed at the idea
so the horns were left in the stable,
Later one heifer began to bleed
quite badly. Still sceptical but ready
to try anything the farmer hunted
for the horns and t,irew them out
in' the snow, In half -an -hour the
heifer )tad stopped bleeding!
4, * *
Hardly had we got over this ex-
citement when the weather changed.
Light feathery snow covered every-
thing. And, if the wind should
blow, we thought. Well, as you
know, the wind did blow—with a
vengeance. BLit by that time the
snow had practically gone. Saturday
morning the wind was terrific,
Partner hurried out to the baric
again right after breakfast—funny,
how a farmer feels he has to be with
his livestock if the weather is rough
—and scmetinmes at extra brace
against the door at the right
time makes all the difference.
I started on my dishes. Suddenly I
smelt something burning. Heavens
the stovepipes! And were they
burning! We have had pipes on
fire once or twice before but only
slightly. This time I knew it was
the real thing—and if the creosote
that always lines these old-fashioned
chimneys should catch the ]rouse
was as good as gone. I didn't dare
take time to call Partner—the fire
would have got too good a hold.
Anything that could be done had to
be done right away. A chemical
fire extinguisher hangsin the corner
of the dining -room. '1 yanked it off
the hook which automatically re-
leased the top. I threw half the
powder on the )tot coals, It seemed
to have a little effect so I threw on
the rest. Presently there was less
heat and smoke corning from the
pipes. I raj, into the dining-room—
which shares the same chimney—
end there was smoke bellowing out
from around a specially constructed
chimney stop, What to do
no way of getting chemical up there.
I ran for a pail of water, tore the
thick roller towel off the kitchen
door, and kept the soaked towel
over the chimney stop. By this
time, what with the smoke and the
chemical 1 was choking and cough-
ing and could hardly see what .1 was
doing, However, after about half -
an -hour I got the fire under con-
trol—otherwise this chronicle might
not have. been written. It was two
hours before Partner was in the
¶rouse again and heard and saw
what had happened. Later that day
we took ,he pipes down. Since we
had been burning quite a bit of
wood lately there must have been
sodic loose soot in the pipes—and
a little would be quite enough in
that wind. We try to keep our pipes
clean, taking them down several
times during the winter. But this
time the sudden change in the
weather caught us napping. .When
I woke tip this morning I was sur-
prised to find most of my muscles
stiff and sore. Guess I'm not used
to moving quite as fast as I did
y'ester'day, * * *
So that's my chronicle for today,.
Such events make good copy but
I won't mind at all if 5 have less
to write about next' week,
