Ancient Windmills Working For War Many historic buildings, . saved trims destruction and restored by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Btedlugs, are -now being utilized in Britain's war effort. Chief among the are the wind- mills which are making an import• ant contribution to the nation's • food supply. M the outbreak of war, the So. eiety put its resources at the die posai orthe State, . The Windmill Section was called to to help when the government ordered a survey of ;cauntry mills with a view to calling them htto service h the event of damage to the large in- dustrial milling plants. When the Ministry of. Agreed. ture u, paled to farmers to grow more wheat, oats, and barley, the Windmill Section decided to con• oentrate on keeping working mills In .good condition as such, rather than on maintaining them solely as pleasing features in the landscape. A sczeme which enabled the far• mer to get his corn ground at his very door was in line with the .governrhent policy of _ fostering widely distributed food -producing centres. The country miller, however, striving to maintain an old-world business in a modern industrial world, is, is many cases, Living from hand to mouth. The question of repairs to the mill is often a serious problem and it is here that financial help is given by Wind. mill Section of the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings. Though many millers are skillful in doing small repairs, It sometimes happens that a structural weak - nes passes unnoticed until it be- comes serious. A mill kept in working condition may last for cen- turies, but if its activities are ar- rested,,for however short a period, it is well on the way to destruc. tion, The' Windmill Section gives a technical report free of charge, and when necessary, pays the ex• peens of a visiting millwright, Cry!.

The bracken Was gathered and tightly bundled by Kentish Wolf Cubs ,— the junior Boy Scouts. Upon the declaration of the state of war between Japan and the United States the services of. the Boy Scouts of America were offered the Government, and 0 once accepted and incorporated in the Civilian Defence organization work. It was announced in the United States Satiate that local defence councils and Boy Scout councils would develop plans fot co-operation, the Scouts' duties to inelude assisting emergency ptedicalunits, acting as fire Watch ors and providing messenger ser- vices. .. * K'. * Speaking of its National Scout Service, Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas declared that he felt considerably safer as an American and far Moro hopeful of the fur-. ere beeause the Boy Scout move- ment is as strong as it is in the United States: "The trust we must repose in our boys is im- portant -- grave," de declared.

S UNDAY S CHOOL -LESSON LESSON VIII JESUS APPOINTS AND TEACHES THE TWELVE Mark 3:13.19; Matthew 3-7; Luke 6:12-49 PRINTED TEXT, Luke 6:12.26 GOLDEN TEXT.—Even ao let your light shine .before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Matt. 5116. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.—Spring, A.D. 27. Place.—An unknown mountain, possibly in Judaea. 12. "And it came to pass in these days, that he went out into the mountain to pray; and he continued all night in prayer to God. 13. And when it was day, he called his disciples; and he chose from them twelve, whom also he named apostles." Up to this time Jesus had been satis- fled with gathering converts about Him, calling some of them to accompany him as. disciples. Now He saw that the, time was come to organize his adherents. The choosing of the Twelve is the first measure of organization that Jesus ever took. The number twelve was significant, Jesus set up in their persons the twelve patriarchs of a new people of God. Twelve new tribes were to arise and forms the humanity which Jesus came to install on earth. 14. "Simon, who he also .named. Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John tend Philip and Bartholomew, 15, And Mat- thew and Thomas, and James, the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot, 16. And Judas the son of James, and Ju- das Iscariot, who became a traitor." These men whom Jesus chose were all men who were accustomed to work; they were men who believed Jesus to be the Messiah and who were truly de- voted to him, except in the case of Judas Iscariot, Our Lord saw the work these men 'were to ac- complish, the sufferings they were to endure, the eternal fame they were to attain. He chose them in all confidence knowing His life on earth was to be short and that the church must be built on the testimony and faith of these men. 17. "And he came down with them, and stood on a level place, and a great multitude of his dis.' ciples, and a great number of the people from all Judaea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of pnr %S CURIOUS WORLDEly tFergusonm it 00 e0 0 0 s 00 f(G 4T O'CLOCK A.

Three o'clock is the hour of a winter after- noon when cooling is begun, and eight in the morning 3s the co]d' time, and the most like)), for the condensation of moisture.. NEXT: If there were inhabitants onthe moon, Tyre and Sidon, who came to. hear him and to be healed of a their diseases; 18, and they that were troubled with unclean spir- its were healed. 19. And all the multitudes sought to touch him; for power • came forth from him, and healed them all." This is a severely condensed record of our Lord's mighty ministry in teach- ing and healing. It would seem that our Lord immediately, as it were, by His own work, gave an example to the apostles of the work they were to do when he was gone. 20. "And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed are ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God." The rich are easily tempted to concentrate on present possessions, often to the exclusion of thoughts for God. and others. The roan who is a Christian, and poor at the sante time, is free to be occupied with things of God, even in the midst of his daily toil. 21, "Blessed are ye that hum, ger now: for ye shall be filled." These words showed the people our Lord's great compassion for them in their need and gave them a sure hope of a day to come when all l'ive's needs would be abundantly met. "Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh." Again Jesus shows his compassion for nien in their troubles, and 'declares that a time will come when there will never be any more weeping, when every- thing will be right, when sorrow, and all its causes, will disappear. 22. "Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of Man's sake. 23. 'Re- joice in that day, and leap for joy: for behold, your reward is great it heaven; for in the same manner did their father's unto the prophets." There is a general conscience which condemns cer- tain forms of wickedness but the world hates those who ran coun- ter to its pleasures and preju- dices, and in that case hatred may be the. tribute which vice pays to holiness. The so-called "religi- ous world" has hated with a fierce hatred and exposea to martyrdom some of its greatest prophets and -teachers. Our Lord was handed over to crucifixion by the ueant• mous hatred of the highest religi- ous authorities of His day. 24, "But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation. 25. Woe unto you, ye that are full now! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you, ye that laugh Trow! for ye shall mourn and weep. 26. Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you for in the same man- ner did their fathers to the false prophets," It is not the rich, as such,. that Jesus . 5:.100, for a Nicodemus or a Joseph of Arima thee will be . welcomed as readily as the peered man in - Israel. Jesus is here dealing with Isis- . torical ' fact, not with moral philosophy, Were , not the rich and powerful, as a class, alroady in open opposition to His mission? They were thus excluding them- selves from the Kingdom of God.
