SOVIET
RUSSIA
Cherkasi
Surging ahead to several points on the Dniester River, the Red Army
has forced the Nazis to retreat into Bessarabia. .At Tyazhilov, a little
more than a mile east of Vinnitsa, the Russians killed nearly 2000 Ger-
mans, then went on to sever the Vinnitsa-Zhmerinka railroad, the
Nazis' last rail link with the rest of the Ukraine. To the southeast,
other Soviet forces widened a wedge across the Odessa -Warsaw rail-
road.

'\Ve are living in a different world,
Partner and I. A different world,
that is, from the one we were in
ast week. VVe are living where
there is comfort. and warmth, and
a feeling of intense satisfaction. All
that as a result of having a furnace
iustalled.
You people who have been used
to warm furnace heated houses all
your lives; yon who have never had
• ;-, spend half your time running
from one stove to another—and
thee not have the house warm—you
cont know what it means to feel
that you are fleetly through with
. a tt annual fight to keep some sem-
blance of heat and comfort in your
house. Of :•:.,.rse I don't ocean to
iggest that a house cannot be pro -
i eerly heated without a furnace.
Many can be, and are. It depends
on tate house—nn its co=rstre tir,n,
its position aa -i its size.
,\Ve Have tried our best with stoves
zed after figuring things out from
every angle see decided that a fur-
nace would take less fuel and give
-better results titan three stoves.
Why- haven't we installed one be-
fore? Well, consider farm prices
for ten years previous to the war
attd you have the answer.
* * *
Well. I had no idea putting in a,
furnace meant so much work, took
so much tinte, and made so much
confusion. The plumber tells Inc
that this job in a new house is a
r, neh—installing one in an old,
soldily built house is something else
;swain: But he didn't need to tell
um—I could set for myself. I'Ve
hate three cellars under the house,
d tided be- stone walls twelve in-
eLes thick. Holes had to be made
in these walls for the pipes to go
through—and some of the pipes
Were twelve and fourteen inches in
diameter. Partner was helping the
plumber, and the two of them were
pounding away with picks and
crowbars. There was a time when
,I wondered is tete job would ever
be finished.
* , *
I don't kr-ow what the plumber
thought of the—every day I would
Say—"Shall we be able to light the
furnace today?" Finally, last Fri-
day, came the answer for which I
had been longing—"I think we can
light the furnace about four o'clock
today!"
I had to go out that afternoon
but believe me I was back by four
o'clock. However it was six
41.
V. C. WINNER
o'clock before lee set a match to
our first furnace fire. Oh, the joy
of it! The sheer coinfort of stand-
ing near a register and feel the
warm air rising. It is almost too
good to be true. Partner and I
have been cold in this house so
long that we feel now as if we vent
to soak up all the heat we can get;
* *
Of course I ani finding plenty
of extra work to do because as
each room is finished I get it clean-
ed and the furniture rearranged.
And how much easier it is to ar-
range things when there isn't a
stove stuck in the middle of the
room! The plumber will be here
for another two days yet as there
is still the upstairs to do. Saturday
I was so tired I was almost ready
to drop in my tracks—and yet there
was nothing I wanted so muck as
to keep on working.
* * *
Perhaps you will say—"Yes, put-
ting in a furnace may be all right,
but don't you know there is a war
on—couldn't you have waited?"
To which I might answer: Yes, we
know there is a war on—perhaps
better than some. We also know
'that we have been farming twenty
years; that we are both pretty much
like the "old grey mare"; and that
if we are to carry on we can't af-
ford to have our vitality drained by
cold and discomfort in the house.
I need a waren house to work in;
Partner needs it for the little time
he has in which to relax, Yes, we
really feel we can enjoy our long-
delayed comfort with a clear con-
s cience.
Highway Rule
For p`''edestrians
Pedestrians on the roads and
highways of the province often
cause motorists a near -fright by
their apparent indifference to traf-
fic, whether slow or speedy.
The rule for persons walking on
the highways should be to walk
towards approaching traffic, always
on the left side of the• road. Then
there is no danger of being over-
taken by traffic, to be injured
thereby. Thus, during darkness, the
pedestrian always has sufficient
warning by the vision from a dis-
tance of approaching cars. Also
it is just a step off the pavement
should that stepbe necessary,
without having to look around, as
would be required were the walker
on the other side of the road,
If .pedestrians always walked on
the left side of the road there
would seldom be an accident to
report involving thein. It is the
rule of the road in the sections
and a common-sense method and
worthy of universal adoption.

CHRIST'S VICTORY OVER
DEATH (Easter Lesson)
' Mark let 1-8; 1 Corinthians 15.
PRINTED TEXT -_»l Corinthians
15: 41.58,
GOLDEN TEXT — Thanks be
to God, who giveth us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ,
1 Corinthians 15 : 57,
MEMORY VERSE: Thou art
nigh, 0 Jehovah, Psalm 110 •,151.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time, ---The appearance of our
Lord to the women on Easter Sun-
day morning took place on Sun-
day, April 0, A.D. 30. The first
epistle of Paul to the Corinthians
was written to the great Greek city
of Corinth somewhere between
AD. 57 and 59.
Place — The first appearance of
our Lord to the women took place
near the empty tomb, probably in
the garden surrounding the tomb
of Joseph of Aritnathaea. The
church of Corinth, to which this
Epistle was addressed, was in the
great city of that name in central
Greece.
State of Incorruption
"There is one glory of :the sun,
and another of the moon, and an-
other glory of the stars; for one
star differeth front another star in
glory," Paul simply draws atten-
tion to the many differences. that
appear in bodily forms.
"So also is the resurrection of the
dead. It is sown in corruption; it'
is raised in incorruption." Incor-'
ruption is a timeless stale,: perfect,
constant, changeless.
Dishonor and Gioia,
"It is sown in _ dishonor; it is
raised in glory." The apostle has
no thought of any positive dis-
honor inflicted either by God or
man upon the body during the
present life -- dishonoris simply
in contrast with glory.
"It is sown in weakness; it is
sown a natural body; it is raised
a spiritual Body. If there is a na-
tural body, there is also a spiritual
body-." As the phrase 'a natural
body' means a body like ours,
formed by the energy of the prin-
ciple of animal life, so must the
phrase 'a spiritual body', which de-
scribes the resurrection body, de-
note a body which shall be formed
by the energy of the immortal
spirit, a body specially adapted
to the cravings and necessities of
the spirit, as this present 'body is
to those of the animal life,
In The Image of Christ
"So also it is written, the first
man Adam became a living soul.
The last Adam became a life-giv-
ing spirit. How belt that is `not
first which is spiritual. but t'tat
which is natural; then that which
is spiritual. The first man is of the
earth, earthy; the second mane is
of heaven," The first Adam here,
of course, is the first ratan God•.
created. The last Adair is none
other than the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Apostle contrasts the first and
second Adam. The one was a
man; the other infinitely more.
A Precious Promise
"As is the earthy, such are they
also that are earthy; and as is the
heavenly, such are they also that
are heavenly, And as we have borne
the image of the earthy, we shall

also bear the image of. the heaven-
ly," This verse contains one of the
:most precious promises in all the
New Testament: we shall also
bear the image of the heavenly,
that is, we will he like unto the
Lord Jesus.
Our Corruptible Bodies
"Now this I say, .brethren, that
flesh and blood cannot inherit the
kingdom of God; neither doth cor-
ruption inherit corruption." If the
kingdom of God is characterized by
incorruptibleness, that is, absolute
purity, we will have to have in-
corruptible bodies.
The Death of Believers
"Behold, I tell you a mystery:
We shall not sleep, but we shall
all he changed, in a moment, in the
twinkling of an eye, at the last
trump: for the trumpet shall sound,
and the dead shall be raised in-
corruptible, and we shall be chang-
ed. For this corruptible must put
on incorruption, and this mortal
trust put on immortality." The
sleep referred to is of course, the
death of believers, An incorrupt-
ible ,body implies a great deal; for
the truth is that most, if not all, of
the bodily pain we experience is
due to the fact that this present
• body is corruptible. But when the
body shall be made incorruptible
there shall be no longer any pain
er ,offering. There shall be no
riore death.
Victory Over Death
"But when this corruptible s=tall
have put on incorruption, and this
!-mortal :hall have put on immor-
'telity, then shall come to pass the
saying that is written, Death is
swallowed up in 'victory. 0 death,
where is thy victory? 0 death,
wi ero is thy sting? The sting of
death ie sin; and the power of sin
is the law: but thanks be to God,
wito giveth us the victory through
our Lord Jesus Christ." Christ not
only • gives us this victory over
death, but He creates the soul
aster the image of God and He
repairs all the evils which death
had inflicted, He restores us to
' that state from which sin had cast
its down.
Steadfastness and Fervor
"\3'herefore, my beloved breth-
Teu, be ye steadfast, unmovable, al-
ways Abounding in the work of
the I.ord, forasmuch as ye know
that your laic,:' is not vain in the
Lord." We knob\ that the Lord
will bring rich results from any
investment of labor we make for
'Hine and that ultimately there
awaits a glorious reward for those
who have been faithful to Him.
Work done for Christ, in the pow-
er of the holy Spirit, is work done
for eternity, ,
Parachutes Made
Of The Finest Silk
It takes a jerk • of 5?•: tons to
break the 28 cords of the British
Army's parachute. Each rigging
line is trade of the finest braided
silk cord, tested to a breaking strain
of 450 lbs. The canopy to which
they are attached is made 61 the
finest silk. The whole business
weighs .30 lbs., including harness
and container bad, and costs £70
(2801,
As a consequence it is now cal-
claiated that parachute jumping is
no more dangerous than jumping
off a slow bus. Minor injuries,
such as sprained ankles and wrists,
are down to less than three per
thousand. Careful packing is an
additional factor in this record. A
flight -sergeant, who has been re-
sponsible for the packing of 38;-
000 parachutes; has never had one
fail to open.
Record time for a man to run
440 yards (quarter -mile) is 46.2
seconds; this record was establish-
ed in America,

Electronic Express
For Speedy Travel
Aboard an "Electronic Express,"
travelers leaving New York would
reach Chicago in half an hour and
the Pacific Coast in an hour, ac-
cording to Dr, Irving Langmuir,
natural scientist who has won the
Nobel prize for his reseaches.
Writing in "Mechanix Illustrated
Magazine," Dr. Langmuir says
"there is no fundamental reason
why we could not travel at a speed
of 2,000 to 5,000 miles an: hour
through a vacuum tube in which
electronically controlled air -tight
vehicles are magnetically, ,suspend-
ed in space."
In agriculture, Dr. Langmuir
envisions an orchard operated en-
tirely without workersi in which
fruit -bearing trees- can be.• culti-
vated, and the fruit picked by ma-
chines operated and controlled elec-
tronically.
