Zurich Herald, 1939-09-07, Page 7"Shuttle Bombing" Can Be Done By These Bxitish Planes Pictured in flight here are a few of the type bombing planes which can be used in Great Britain to poinb German military points in the event of aggression on Poland. The planes can take -off from French bases, loaded with bombs which they can drop on Germany, fly on to Poland where they can refuel and reload and again bomb Germany on the way home. These planes have a flying radius with full bombing load of more than 3,000 miles. Sunday Lsson H.1 ZEKIAH: A KING WHO REMEMBERED GOD. — 2 Chron. 30. Printed Text, 2 Chews. 3013-22. Golden Text.—Turn us again, 0 God; and cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved. Ps. 80:3. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.—Hezekiah ascended the throne of Judah in 715 B.C., and it was not long after this when he began making preparations for the great passover feast of which our lesson speaks- Place.—Jerusalem. 'The Passover Feast The first great, feast in the He- brew calendar of sacred festivals was. the passoverr ,which combined i z` is ttre',fieateoth of sacrifice'exn ; rl alit " tg y; - ine .sift"eiefttrmb) and 'fes- -level, for With it was joined the feast of unleavened bread. It was instituted in Egypt on the four- teenth of Nisan, the first month of the sacred year (Exod. 12: 2). and it was at once the sign and seal of Israel's protection from judgment and redemption from bondage. The main feature of it was the lamb slain and the sprink- ling of the blood on the lintels and door -posts of the Hebrew houses. This was God's solemn pledge of safety and immunity from the mes- senger of death, the angel destroy- er. Jehovah's word •to the people about the blood was, "When I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt" (Exocl. 12:13, Re- vised Version). Redemption by blood is the solemn lesson and the central truth in the passover. The lamb died that the first-born of each Hebrew family might not die. The typical character of the passover is distinctly recognized in the New Testament: "For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us" (I Cor. 5:7). The lamb slain was the first great object held up to Israel about to be re- deemed. Behold the Lamb of God, is the cry that first reaches a sin- ner's ear and a sinner's heart. Christ and him crucified is the one supreme object in God's plan of zedemption. 13. And there assembled at Je- rusalem much people to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great as- sembly. 14. And they arose and took away the altars that. were in Jerusalem, and all the altars for incense took them away, and cast them into the brook Kidron, Just as when a city in our country is preparing for a centennial celebra- Lion or for a great home -coming, houses are painted, the streets are eteaned, every possible arrange - ,tient is made to comfortably care , for, the hundreds and thousands who will be crowding into the community, so now, that the pass - over night be celebrated as God would have it, Hezekiah had the whole city. of Jerusalempurged of 4ts faire idols. A Real Revival 45, Then they killed .t1e. pees - over on the fourteenth day of the second month: and the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought burnt offerings into the house of Jehovah. 16. And they stood in their place after their order, ac- cording; to the law of ivioses the Mae of God: the priests sprinkled the blood which they received of the hand of the Levites:. -1.7. 'Ploy - there were many in the assembly that had not sanctified themselves: therefore the Levites had the charge of killing the passovers for every one that was not clean, to sanctify them unto Jehovah. Let us never think that a real revival can ever be had unless it is characterized by a return to that great and final sacrifice of the Lamb of God, who is the eternal propritiation for our sins, and by whose precious blood atonement was forever provided for all who would confess their sins and re- ceive the gift of eternal life. 18. For a multitude of the peo- ple, even many of Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, yet did they eat the passover other- wise than it is written. For Heze- kiah had prayed for them, saying, The good Jehovah pardon every one 19. that setteth his heart to seek God, Jehovah, the God of his fathers, though he be not cleansed according to the purification of the sanctuary. 20. And Jehovah hearkened to Hezekiah and healed the people. The king 'recognizing the ritualistic unfitness of many to observe the passover, brought the entireeeneseter..to "Crud,: and osked ..'pardon ±oi- all' wlierhad approached, the altar without complying with all the laws for purification. A sin of ignorance in the case of some. The king's prayer was :successful. 21. And the children of Israel that were present at Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great gladness; and the Levites and the priests praised Jehovah day by day, sing- ing with loud instruments unto Je- hovah. For three hundred years in Israel's history, i.e., since the days of David (I Chron. 25:7), we do not find a single reference to singing among the people of God until the revival that occur- red under Hezekiah. The feast of unleavened bread was a continuation of the passover and followed it on the neat day, and continued for a week. From the beginning of the passover all leaven was rigorously banished from the houses of the Hebrews. So strict was the law that the Jews made search for leaven with lighted lamp, that no particle of it might remain concealed. 22. And Hezekiah spake com- fortably unto all the Levites that had good understanding in thei service of Jehovah. So they did eat throughout the feast for the seven days, offering sacrifices of peace -offerings, and making con- fession to Jehovah, the God of their • fathers. Only about five per cent of the population of London, England, are said to be "greatly concern- ed with church -going." If anyone wants to buy natnral red hair in Hollywood, he must be prepared to pay up to $80 an Cance for it. Teach Children To Enjoy Music Children Will Respond to Stor- ies Behind Compositions Rhynd Jamieson, music critic for the Vancouver Daily Province, sug- gests uggests a manner in which he be. lieves children could be lured more readily from baseball fields to piano lessons. Most of the present-day teachers make the mistake, he believes, of treating their younger pupils as students, rather than as children. Children, he says, miss the fun and laughter of their games while they are taking their lessons and for that reason they think they hate music. Instead, they should be taught that music itself contains fun and laughter; that there are fairy stor- ies and other stories in music as well as in literature. "Once we get to that point of view," he believes, "the musical childhood .of Canada is safe, but if we don't, :he mortality will stead- , ily increase:" Huge Telephone System In Russia Six Thousand Miles of Equip - meat Sent From Britain A British .firm has just shipped to Russia the last consignment of equipment for the world's longest carrier telephone system, Which will run for nearly 9,000 kilometres (about 6,000 miles) crossing Siber- ia and covering practically the en- tire breadth of the U,S.R,IR. It will give direct communica- tion between Moscow and Khab- arovsk, which is near the Manch- ukuo border, north of Vladivostok; this enormous distance will be cov- ered overed by an open wire line, divided into five links of 2,117 kilometres, 1,443 kilometres, 1,867 milometres, 990 kilometres, 2,414 kilometres, respectively. Special Apparatus Specially designed transmission apparatus which will make it pos- sible to operate several telephone and telegraph circuits simultane- eusly and, in addition, a channel for broadcasting or picture trans- mission, are included in the con- tract. Standard Telephones and Cables Limited, of London, were given the contract for the work at a figure exceeding 2300,000. Largest Aircraft Order In History $100,000,000 Contracts For Army Planes The United States War Depart- ment awards contracts this month for approximately $100,000,000 worth of airplanes, the largest sin- gle aircraft order in history. The contrasts, together with pre- vious awards amounting to $54,000- 000, form a major part of a $170,- 000,000 air expansion program de- signed to bring army fighting strength to 5,500 planes by July 1, 1941. The present Air Force num- bers about 2,000 craft. Appointment of War Resources The awards followed by less than 24 hours a joint Army-Navy move to enlist the aid of leading business men and scholars in mold- ing American industry to the rigid requirements of war. Acting Secre- tary of War Louis Johnson and Acting Secretary of the Navy Charles Edison announced the ap- pointment of a War Resources Board, similar to the Great War Industries Board, to assist in mob- ilizing economic resources in the •event that national safety is being threatened.
