THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. —• Thursday evening, April 6, A,D, 30, Plage. -- In the upper room where the Last Supper was held, somewhere in the city of Jerusa- lem. Christ's Interpretation "So when he had washed their feet, and taken his garments, and sat clown again, he said unto /MVO do ate .. what 1aY them, Know yo w a. ti , to you? Ye call mo, 'Teacher, and Lord: and ye say well, for so 1 • ant, If 3 then, the Lord and the. Teacher, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one an- other's feet. For T have given you an example, that ye also. should do as I have done to you. Verily, vc•rily, I. say' tanto you, A servant is not greater than his lord; neither one that is sent ,;renter than he that sent hila. 11 ye know those things, blessed are ye if ye do them." What our Lord was really laying upon the disciples as a command was their willingness to serve others in the humblest and most menial ways, and to be glad to serve in this way whenever they knew it was the Lord's will, What' our lord hero desires is not so much seine physical act of foot washing as true Humility' of heart, When we know What is right, what the Lord demands of us, we willnever have true joy until we are doing those very things, Jesus Foretells His Betrayal "I epeak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth my bread lifted up his heel against ane. From henceforth 1 • tell you before it come to pass, that, when it is ,come to pass, ye may believe that I am he. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send re- ceiveth me; and he that receiveth ane receiveth him that sent me." The metaphor here is of one eels ing his foot before kicking, hat the blow .is not given. This was tho attitude of Jesus at this moment. Our Lord now definitely an- nounces that one of the twelve sitting in the upper room svould that night betray their Master. Our Lord will offer no resistance or defense, Men do unto Him 'whatever they list,' as He said they would (Matt. 17:12). He leaves Himself in their hands when the hour is come to do so. They take their responsibility in what they do; He fulfills His in. what He suffers. Christ's Words of Comfort "Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in me." These are words not only of synipathetie kindness but of a needful counsel. Note par- ticularly how assist places Him- self in ilnmecliate relationship with the'Fatiter, asserting He is equally worthy of being believed. - "In nay 'l'ather's house ars many mansions; if it were not so, 'I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I cense again, andwill re- ceive you eceive'you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be :also," Here is the clearest possible announce" tient of what is known in the Church as the second advent of our Lord. Chi ist promised• to come back for us because He wants us to be with Him, Here • again is the manifestation of in - 'finite love. Christ Is The, Truth "And whither I go, ye know the Way Thomas saitll unto him, .Lord,; we •Kirov not whither thou gout; how know the the way? Jesus saith tanto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: 11•e one cometh unto the Father, but by me:" Ohrist is the way by which tho 'two worlds are united, 50 that: men may pees from one to the other. Hence;' perhaps the Chris- tian faith le spoken of as the Way, Christ 1s the truth uacbangeable anclreternal.'eoncerning the fundi - mentals of existence. Note care- fully, He does not say ire brings the truth, or teaches the truth, but Ho is the truth, In Elim is the. truth concerning God; in liim is the truth concerning lose; in Shut le the truth of holiness; in Hien is the truth of scale/lee; in 1%i1n 35 the truth of life; in Iim is the tenth, of creation; in TIini is the truth of the ultimate sovereignty of rtghteousncss.

Barked W. ,A. Walgreen . of Flagstaff, Apia., got more that a laugh out of a story told by Frank Bradley, a Navajo Indian, at an American Legion post meeting he got a little something to think about, says American Legion Magazine. A group 'of tourists'were making •the rounds of the old Indian ruins near Kayenta, in the Navajo country, and at one of the cliff dweller villages they ,had to leave the car and walk some distance. Then someone remembered he hal neglected to. lock his car—and all began to worry. "It is perfectly safe," assured the Indian guide.,"There isn't -a white man within fifty miles!" CheaPRUbber From .guayule To fie Prcducod Eventually, for 10c a Pound The guayule plant pre40005 ,here 1'abher inproportion to its weight than can be had from any other source. And this is natural rubber, too, chemically the exact duplicate of the best rubber tree, Not only that, the sturdy little gray leafed-guayule shrub is no prima donna about living condi- tions and environment. It thrives luxuriantly and stoles rubber like' a cactus stores water during the long dry sununers of California, Arizona, Texas and New Mexico. The last tree rubber which reached New York sold for 224o a pound. For synthetic rubber the price has been ranging from 65c to $1 per pound since 1931. Some day it is expected thatsynthetic rabbet' can be made to sell for as low as 25c a pound.. However, rubber from the guayule plant can eventually be produced in un- limited quantities for 100 per pound, even eventually at 5c per pound, according to one eminent authority. $25,000,000 Appropriation On the fifth of last March Con- gress appropriated $25,000,000 to start guayule rubber into produc- tion-50,000 roducttion-5Q,000 acres of it in Cal- ifornia alone. Millions of acres in the west are adapted to the mea- gre requirements of the knee- high shrub. The guayule plant contains a small amount of rubber both in. its branches and roots when only a year old. It doubles this amount the second year, triples hi the third, rind continuos to increase its stare of rubber for 10 years, at wbieh time the peak Is reached. The rubber it contains is then equal to about 89 per cont of the plant's dry weight, It will sustain this rubber without deterioration in civantity or quality bor the re- mainder of its life. ,And the guayule plant reaches the ripe old age of two score years. 540,000 Tons in 1946 The 'United States tariff com- mission estimates we can produce 540,000 tons of guayule rubber in 1946, In 1948 they figure that 2,000,000 tons can be produced. This is mole than twice our pres- ent requirements for military and other essential ,needs. Strangely enough, back in 1910 this country consumed more gua- yule rubber than any other kind. We used around 15 tons daily. It MSS shipped in from Mexico. Cheap tree rubber from the far east gradually supplanted it. Now history reverses itself, Gwsyuis tires will be cheap tires because of low production' costs when the industry finally gets going on the • nted.An d we will ba • scale: ]d1 big p free from dependence on Asiatic rubber. Babes In the Wood . Two little children, "mites of .five and seven," ran away from home and bid in one of London's parks. They were found a few hours later after their distracted parents had notified the police. When they were asked why they'd run away they said they wanted to be like the babes in the wood, and hide in the wood until the war was over.
