The root of all unbelief is in this heart -stiff- ness that refuses to bend and yield to the proper evidence. Into All The World 15. And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. What then is "the gospel?" It is the good news that the Lord is risen. If we only have the teaching of Jesus, we have no gospel. If we only have the account of his per- fect life, we have no gospel. If we only have the cross, we have no gospel. Ml these become part of the gospel because of its central truth, which is that of the resur- rection. No human being is shut out from' the gospel by Jesus; ab- solutely all are to believe this gos- pel with the one purpose that all are to be saved. The expression reaches to the end of time. 1f it is asked how the aspotles Could her- ald the gospel that far, the answer is, through the New Testament and the voice of every man Who preach- es and teaches the New Testament. 16. He that believetln and is bap- tized shall be .saved. 'l'he ultimate end of Christ's coming, the Wee A•--0 of preaching the gospel Is that men In many tombs .a groove or trough was cut along the front of the tomb to hold the stone, along which it could be lowered to open or 'cover the entrance. As a rule, this trough was made slightly sloping, so that the lowest part would be immediately in front of the aper- ture. It would thus need much more strength to move it away from its position than to move it into position. If several men would bo needed to roll it along under or - dimly circumstances, more would be needed to lift it out of its soc- ket and then roll it up -hill to a clis- tamce. 4. And looking u, , they see that the `.one is rolled back: for it was exceeding great, The rolling of the atone happened after the resurrec- tion. The coming of the angel was for the roiling back of the stone, snot 'that Jesus might pass out of the grave, but to show that he had gene.

The ducal couple are busy making extensive alterations to the Chateau de la Croe on the French Riviera. They celebrated their anniversary June 3rd at a Riviera hotel. A hasty search of the neighborhood by the duke brought the only three orchids in the district. �`I By VIRGINIA DAL When Irene Dunne was in New York recently she had what might have been an embarrassing experi- ence. She lunched alone in a smart Radio might believe.' Christianity is the one religion that does not demand that the sinner save himself, but that he permit the Son of God to save him and keep him safe. But he that disbelieveth shall be con- demned. Nothing le said Neve of those who never hear the gospel, and thus never get either to believe or to disbelieve. The Ascension 19. So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken unto them, was re- ceived up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. God takes Christ back up into heaven from whence he had come. His sitting down at the right hand of God means, of course, that his work of redemption on earth is fin- ished, and that he himself is co- equal with God, and has reassum- ed his rightful place at God's right hand. 20. And they went forth. This re- fers primarily to the eleven apos- tles, but also to all those who en- gaged in the proclamation of the gospel in the apostolic period of church history. And preached ev- erywhere. The Lord working with them. Without him' we cannot work, and without us he will not; but, together, nothing is impossible. And confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen. Very significantly, this is the only place in all of Mark's Gospel where Jesus is spoken of as the Lord. From noW 011 It becomes the familiar title, together with the name Jesus, or the name Christ, or both of them combined, used by the Christian church. Weds Italian Prince Prince Guido Colonna, nal an vice-consul in Toronto, wed Mos- cow -born Tatiana Conus, ABOV d, in New York recently with the consent of Ring Victor Emmen- :tel. The wedding has been twice oostporied because official permis- lion for the prince to marry was not forthcoming. Miss Conus worked as a salesgirl in a fifth \-•erre nevffnmi' shore. restaurant, and when It came time to pay the check she discovered, to . hen. horror, that she hadn't enough money. She appealed to the manager, asking him if he would cash a -check for the amount. He assured her that he would. So she wrote the check—and he promptly framed it. Just one more case where a well known face was worth a for- tune! Kay Francis is looking forward to September, when her current mo- tion picture contract expires. She is going off for a long vacation in RAY FRANCIS Europe. And nobody can blame her for wanting to be rid of the movies for a while, at least. Bad pictures have affected her box-office value, but when she fought for roles that she knew would be good, she did not get them. Now that theatrical producers go to Hollywood when they want to cast new plays, it may be that she will return to the stage when that vacation is over. help wondering if there la a Place for Fields. It's becoming more and more evi- dent that radio programs coming. from cities and stations outside New York are better than .a lot of those broadcast from the big city. One reason is that fast -talking agents can sell talent that isn't reallyy good. questioned not long ago about the success of a certain singer her agent broke down and. confessed all—told about how she had been built up, pushed ahead; how he landed this contract and then that one for her. Now she's one of radio celebrities, drawing a huge salary for her work on a well- known program, And a lot of girls who sing on local broadcasts made in smaller stations are ever so much better. Here's an odd note on the old stage -screen battle. "Stage Door" was a very successful play. The movies bought it and made it over —threw away the story and started from scratch. Now some of the summer stock companies would like to do the stage version, but one of the authors, Edna Ferber, won't re- lease it to them—because she feels that the film version was so much better than the original! Next time you see a cobweb on the screen think of the man who is Hollywood's expert cobweb -maker, Jess Wolf. His most recent assign- ment was constructing more than two miles of cobwebs for a castle in Warner Brothers' "Kidnaped." He has a gadget that squirts a rub- ber compound in a tiny thread. Then he weaves the threads info a cobweb pattern, and sprays then with gray paint, Kay Kyser with his College of Musical Knowledge has a grand program with a really new idea. Iiyser's from the Middle West, where a great deal of the talent seems to come from these days. Remember him on Wednesday nights. W. C. Fields, Who is otit of mo- vies for the time being, may return to the radio program which he de- serted months ago. He left then because of a disagrcenenit over scripts, The sane reason was giv- en for his movie contract's being terminated.

Replacing the Jack Benny Sun- day 7 p.m. NBC network program during the summer months is the "Hobbby Lobby" voted by the na- tion's radio editors to be "the outstanding idea show of 1987." It takes the air July 3. The pro- gram features Dave Elman, con- ductor of Hobby Lobby as Master of Ceremonies. From six to ten different hobbyists will come from all walks of life and all parts of the world each week to "lobby for their hobby". This hour pre- sents people who have found re- laxation and sometimes profit in extraordinary hobbies such as Plaintiff Uses Sign Language In Australian Court Where Alp. original Is Accused of Assault Dummy and Mary Ann, the two wives of an aboriginal living near Darwin, .Australia, found their feat- ousy so strong that its effects cull mivated in a fight in which Dummy attacked the other wife. When she appeared in the Dar- win Supreme Court for trial on the charge of assault, Dunamy, who is dumb, had to give her evidence in sign language. Tall and gaunt, with matted hair and flashing eyes, Dummy made up for her lack of words by histrionic ability. Fight Re-enacted In. Dumb ShoW She re-enacted the tight with wife Number Two, vividly portray- ing how they fought, scratched, bit, kicked and pulled each other's hair. She snarled and wept, she wriggled in agony as she showed how she felt Mary Ann's teeth in her arm. She showed how she stealthily picked up a knife and plunged it into Mary's arm. The performance fascinated all in court except Mary Ann, who looked bored. The judge bound over Dummy for six months. He said it would be an interesting experiment, never previously tried on an aborigine. An interpreter had to explain by signs the meaning of being bound over. His performance was not equal to Dummy's. Tractor Speeder Fined at Regina Followed down Albert street at 28 miles an hour by a motor- cycle constable, Earl E. Robinson had the distinction in police court of being the first man in Regina, possibly the first in Canada, to be fined for speeding in a farm trac- • tor. Robinson's father, R. A. Rob- inson, a farmer, appeared and en- tered a plea of guilty. The pen- alty was $4 and costs. Robinson said that the tractor was driven to Regina from St. Paul, Minn., passing along the streets of St. Paul and Winnipeg without objections from the police. He claimed that the tractor had a normal speed in high gear of 80 miles an hour and had averaged 28 miles an hour on the trip.
