TFIE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time --Thursday evening, April 6, A.D. 80, Place—Not definitely known, possibly in the upper room, pos. sibly in the court of the Temple; hardly on any street in Jerusalem) which had to he .traversed on the way to the garden of Gethncmtuie, Christ's Prayer for 1-limself. "These things spoke Jesus; and lifting up his eyes to heaven, He said, Father, the hour is come. Glorify Thy Son, that the Son may glorify Thee." This glorifi- cation includes the acceptance of thesacrifiec, the atonement made, the redemption received, the reversal of death and the irverthrow of Satan. "Even as thou gavesi him au- thority over all flesh, that to all whom thou bast given him, he should give eternal life." Not all Israel only but all humanity are the subjects of Messiah. "Anti this is life eternal, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou didst send, even Jesus Christ." The knowledge 'Christ speaks of here arisen from experience with God, from an understanding of God's revelation to man. "I glorified thee on earth, hav- ing accomplished the work which thou hast given ate to do" Glory was rendered upon earth by the perfect devotion of a holy Truman life, by word and deed and by service. Request. for Clorification "And now, Father, glorify tilos me with thine .own self with the glory which I had with thee be- fore the world was," The glorify- ing of the Sol of MIan and Iiia assumption into the glory He had with His Father before the world, began with his resarrcc- tion. Christ's Divine Origin "I manifested thy name unto the men whom thou gayest me out of the world; thine they were, and thou gayest them. to me; and they have kept thy word. Now they know that all things whatsoever thou Bast given me are from thee. For the words which thou gayest me I have given unto 'thein; and they received thein, and knew of a truth that I carne forth from thee, and they believed that thou d•idst send me." The"words" im- ply all the separate utterances of Christ as personal revelation of the character and will of God, convincing the believing receiver of them that Christ is divine' in origin and., person, and His lufs- Sion divine. • The Divine Mission "As thou didst send me iota the; world, oven so sent I them into the world."' The son came into"' the world to love and re- deem men; we are 'to have that same • love for amen and point them ever to the same Redeemer, "And for their Bakes I' sanctify myself, that they theihselves also may be sanctified in truth." The giving up of His will to.God'S ivi11 in the agony of Gethsenlene, .and then the doing of that will in the obedience unto death, this was Christ's sanctifying Himself and 115 100, Ono In Christ "Neither for these only do 1 pray, but for them also' that be- lieve on 1110 through their word; that they may all be one; even as thou, Father, art in fnd, and 1 in thee, that they also • may be in us; that the world inay believe that thou didst send nue. And the glory which thouebItst :given me 1 have given unto theta; that they may be one, even as we Are one. I in then, and thou in mo, that they may be perfected into one; that no world may know that thou didat send me, and lovedst chem, even as thou lovedst me," Notice the three stages fit this prayer: the Word 'hams the bather to the Son, from the Son to His disciples -and from the disciples to an unbelieving world. When we receive the truth as it has been divinely revealed to .us, when .we rejoice :in the things its which God rejoices, when wo have the compassion that possess- ed the heart of. Christ, when our will is in perfect u113on with Christ'% will, when the holy Spirit 's leading us in all things, thorn ire we one in Christ, Love for "His Own" "Panel., 1' desire that they s.'.o whom thou Bast given me be .villa isle where .T, am, that they - may behold thy glory, which thou Bast given me; for thou lovettst tee before the f0uildetionof the ". iro1d, 0 riglltotls Fethal; the ivorld knew thee not, but 1 knew ROYAL DUTCH QUINTET 1 rincess Maigriet Francisca, six weeks old, tits for 'a faiilily portrait with her mother and father, Princess Juliana and Prince Bernluu't of the Netherlands, and her two sisters, Princess Irene, left, and Princess Beattie. thee; :and these knew that thou didst send me; and I made known unto ureal thy name, and will make it known; that the love wherewith thou lovedot me may be 111 thein, and I in them." The love of Christ's heart can be satisfied with nothing less than this, that His people, the Father's gift to Him, be with Him, forever sharing his blessedness.

Population Facing Starvation Famine, To Follow Months of Short Food Rations After ]many menthe of short rat tions, F201108 frill face famine 41 June and jelly, asserts the New York Tiules, The: peesant will be able to draw on his stores, though they are growing mailer each season, The manual workers will still be able to eat—It his extra food cow pons are honored, But nose not engaged in productive occupations --+productive for Germany as well as for France --will know starva- tion, and that means the bulk of the population—the 'middle class white -collas' worker, the pensioner, the aged and the young. For one thing, there will be no iiread, which in Preece still forms the Stable food, The reason is sim- ple. The 1943 crap was mortgaged In 1941 At that time, Chief of Govern- ment Pierre Laval had not long returned to power with many promises on _hls lips but no tang- ible German concessions in his hands. Already unpopular, he would ltave'doomed all his chances had he spoken of restrictions, No Wheat From Africa 031e minister of agriculture, Jacques le Roy Ladurie-he has resigned since, Possibly Because he dared not face the future— had enjoined that bread grains should be harvested and threshed as early as possible so that the interval between two crops could be bridged. Vichy hoped that "something would turn up" in the meantime. Instead of a miracle came a calam- ity. North Africa was occupied by the tutted Nations, and Algerian, Moroccan lull Tunisian wheat a4'e no longer available. For another tiling, tbore will be a 004,1•01t3r of fats. Olive oIl came from Tunisia and. Algeria, peanut o11 fl'011s Senegal and other parts of the colonial empire which now have seceded from 'Vichy. Animal fats are scarce as is sufficiently shown by the fact that the average meat ration for an adult is less than • one-half pound a month, Blotter is scarce because of lack of fodder and requisitions of cattle for the M'zny of Occupa- tion. No Fats — No Soap There being no fats, there is no soap aid the French are going un- washed as .well as liufed. There is no poultry—and 110 eggs—because long ago the bar- eaucrats in Vichy decided that it was a "crime" to feed fowl with grams which. could serve man. Some observers fear trouble when a starving people recalls past ministerial pronnises and in- • slots on production of the wheat, the potatoes and the butter "gen- erously provided by the Germans" for storing against learn months. When Reiobmarshal Hermann Goering told the world that when the worst comes to the worst, Germany. Would see to it that she was the last to starve, that pass- age was deleted from the speech as presented to the French, Very soon they will not need to be told, Nothing But Ruins Left of Stalingrad Stalingrad, once a vast indus- trial centre whose naive will al- ways be a symbol of the triumph of men over metal, is a heap of . ruins and rubble, writes Henry Shapiro. There are n0 streets, n0 ave- nues, no parks in Stalingrad. Millions of shellpoeked bricks and mountains of metal fragments are all that remains of such build- ings as the Dzersltinsky tractor plant. In the last 15 months I have seen ruins of cities such as Sera- fimovich and hundreds of villages on other fronts. In those places there aro at least individual bricks which still are useable. That is not true of Stalingrad. Adolf Hitler boasted that when the Russians recaptured towns and villages, they would find -- not towns and villages but ruins and debris. ' That is one promise he kept, The destruction at Stalingrad probably exceeds anything since Genghis Khan swept down from' the Mongolian desert and laid waste the great and flourishing cities of central Asia. 12 women around the world will pray that the nations may lie united aid drat our leaders rosy be given supreano guidance in their docs• stows which shall carry the 'struggle; now raging throughout the 'world to a victory le accordance whir tine spirit • of Christendom.
