Zurich Herald, 1939-08-31, Page 3Sunday School Lesson leei,leelel: A LIFE DEDICATED TO COD Isaiah "6: ''1-13. Golden Text.—Hero ate I; xend 1Yp14''. ese. 6:8, T.H.D LESSON IN ITS SETTING Tzm.e,—.Uzziah died in 755 B.C. Place,—Tho City of Jerusalem. 1-3. In the year that King Uz- zial', died I saw the Lord sitting upon Q. throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple. Above him stood the seraphim: ea.eh one had six wings; with twain he covered his 'face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one cried unto another,' and said, holy, holy, holy, is Jehovah of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. In the year of King Uzziah's death the people of Israel were given, up to hardness of heart and as a kingdom and country to.. • devastation and annihilation by the imperial power of the world. In the same year Romulus was born and shortly after this Rome itself was founded! The national glory of Israel died out with king Lizziali and has never revived to this day. Mid widespread corrup- tion we find the youthful Isaiah was called to the office of pro- phet. We remember Isaiah not on- ly for his wonderful prophesies but for his remarkable gift of -oratory, He was perhaps the grea.te' t orator that ever opened a mouth on the face of the earth. These passages show us that Is- eiah was. endowed with great vis- ion and insight onto the goodness of God, . 4. And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him that cried and the house was filled with smoke. This difficult expression is figurative and means that there was a tremor as if drone =awe by the sound attending the cry : of the seraphim. The 'smoke' is a reference to the cloud that is so often mentioned in the .Old Testament as the visible .symbol of God. ' 5. Then said.I, Woe is me! for I ain undone; because I am a rnan of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst Of a people of, unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the ting; mTt3t sa h.gf heats. tl '5'Yi'nte-wiii1i the sense of his own unworthiness.' 6-8. Flew one of the seraphim ante are, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar. And he touched my mouth with it, and' .said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin forgiven. And I heard the voice of the Lord,• saying Whom shall I send, and who will go for ns? Then I said, Here. am I; send me. 9-10. And he said; Go, and tell this 'people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye in- deed, but perceive not. Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and un- derstand with their heart, and turn again, and be healed. Thus Isaiah was directed to be the pro- phet of his people, the people of Israel with unclean lips. How mournful does the commission sound! It was the terrible oppos- ite of that seraphic mission which the prophet had experienced him- self. 11-12. Then said I, Lord; how long? And he answered, Until cities be waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land become utterly waste, and :Jehovah have removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the land. Isaiah asks of the Lord how long it will be before the children of Israel who will not receive his message will turn again to the 'Lord to be healed. The Lord re- plied by giving to Isaiah in sum- mary a history of the future. of the Jewish people as a whole. 13. And if there be yet a tenth ,in it, it also shall in turn be eat - ea up: as a terebinth, and as an pelt, whose stock remaineth, •when they are felled; so the holy meed is the stool; thereof. 'Thus ;Jehovah says that Israel shall nev- er perish utterly, any more than the living seed perishes when bur. lied in the earth. To `Judah and ,Jerusalem' a tenth hart shall re- turn; not, of course, an exact lit- eral tenth but a tithe, expressive . ,.of the clam that Jehovah still 'makes on the nation and every ,sign of that return is prominent today. Israel, "the holy seed' still 1 secures the perpetuity of a nation. He is incapable of a truly good lection who finds not a pleasure in gontomplating the good actions of •ethers. •-••Lavater, E,ire's First High Commissioner To Canada The first High Commissioner appointed by Eire in Canada, Mr. John Hearne, is pictured here with Mrs. Hearne and their two charming -chil- dren, Maurice, RIGHT, and Justin, aboard the Duchess of Bedford as they arrived at Montreal en route toOttawa where Mr. Hearne has taken up his new duties. Double Duty Teapot At Last A New Device For the Tea Drinker There hasn't been a new develop- ment in tea -making for several hun- dred years. Coffee rates a new de- vice at least once a year, but the tea, drinker has been neglected by the 'gadget people. Now some very . bright soul has come along with a double-barreled teapot, and tea can be poured and , diluted from the same container. It has two compartments, one for tea and one for water, with a spout for each. There is an identifying mark on the handle for the side which should contain .tea, and it is not necessary to turn the pat around to use the other side. It can just be swung back and forth until the right spout is' over the cup; the lid won't come off, short of a ot. - 'vo-dos�.ee,..,ausr�...-._Tha; . n forty is Woifld work etlualiT well for coffee with hot milk, or even for coffee 'and tea when both are being serv- ed'.' - Girl Sheep Shearer Competes London's sheep go streamlined each year at the sheep shearing contest organized by the National Federation of Young Farmers° Clubs in Hyde Park. A girl shearer was among the 36 competitors this year for the first time in the history of the contest. She was Miss Evelyn Wood of Kirbymoorside who, with her brother formed the team re- presenting the North Riding of Yorkshire. Nearly 500 sheep were shorn during the contes p 1S at a time. Each competitor shears six sheep. Fine Air Force Within Year Canada will have an air force second to mane in the world in efficiency within a year, says Air Marshal W. A. Bishop, V.C. "By next year we should have 23 squadrons equipped with the most modern airplanes obtain- able. It will be equal of any in the world in efficiency and quality of personnel." It would be a "very fine nucleus" for an adequate defence force and "we will be in a position to offer Great Britain substantial as- sistance in ease of war." Art of Weaving Returns Weaving Lovely Things For, Your Home Always searching for new wom- en's interests we discovered ,a leis- ure time activity that has' been gaining popularity — weaving. Not. to be sure, weaving such as our great, great grandmothers used to do which required a large loom and much training. • 'The type of weaving that we've In mind Is more .elementary and the equipment used is home made, Nev- ertheless, one can turn out such lovely things as two tone envelope bags, scarfs, hodlers, solder web berets, lamp shades, baby's afghans and -- so many useful and beauti- ful things for personal wear and the hove that it would boImpos- sible to list them. Your Loom Best of all, these things are all woven on 'looms" made of a piece of cardboard, an old hoop, a paper plate, a simple frame, and other articles common to every house- hold'. As for materials, your rag hag or attic will yield mauy old things that can be used in weaving. Eskimos Think White ' ' a Pecuii r Cannot Understand Air -Con- ditioning of Viceregal Tran Just prior to the departure of the viceregal train from Churchill, Man., which carried Lord and Lady Tweedsmuir south- after a short visit to this outpost, the train was given a close inspection by a party of Eskimos. Of particular interest to them was the work of the Can- adian National car service meu filling the ice bunkers of the air- conditioning equipment. Eskimos Inspect Train The party of Eskimos was taken through the train and when. they emerged with perspiration pouring down their faces partly hidden by the heavy parkas, they chattered to one another excitedly as each piece of ice was safely stored. away. Curious and Delighted They laughed loudly and pointed at the ice and were completely puzzled. The white man's ways were beyond their understanding. To heat the car on the inside and put ice into it in large quantities on the outside was just too much. The white man sure must be all mixed up. Why did he not stop heating the moving igloos or stop putting ice into them? To do them both did not make sense in the Es- kimo's way of reasoning.
