Some of these "party questions" were seriously presented to groups of college students and their answers used as a basis for all sorts of theses, You've all heard at least some of these famous questions. What are your answers? You are in a boat. Suddenly the boat starts to sink. You can save one member- another, wile, son or daughter. Whom will you save? Among the thousands of college students asked the odds were 214 -to 1 they'd save their wife. If you were lost in a forest and must discard all but one article would you keep matches, knife, compass or axe? The odds were 5 to 4 on the matches. Now you are in a concentration camp and may have one item of comfort: tobacco, Nude, vie - trete and one record, or heemmni- ca. Which would you ' choose? Seven to 1 chose tobacco (the stu- dents thought the other items would quickly pall if used again and again).

IINDAY SCHOOL LESSON Be Res 12 }S Warren, B.A H.D. God Aevealett in Christ John 1: 14 - 23, 29 - 30 Memory Selection: These are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Jhrist, the Son of God; and that believing ye aright have life through his name. John 20:31 Our studies about Christ for this year are from the Gospel of John. Of all the books of the Bible, this is the one which has been printed and distributed most widely. Many people have real- ized their need and been led to the Saviour as they have read its wondrous truths. It inspires the hearts and feeds minds of devout Christians and appeals forcefully to sincere seekers after truth. It accomplishes well its purpose as stated in the memory verse, The pre-existence and deity of Christ are clearly set forth. Most of the world acknow- ledges Jesus as a great teacher. But John goes much farther than that, "In the beginning was the Word, and the • Word was with God, and the Word was God. --And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us." Matthew writing eepecielly far the Jews traces the lineage of Jesus from Abraham. the father of the Jewish nation, Luke in his ap- appea'1 to the Gentile world traces the lineage back to Adam. But John gives the Divine side, The Christ existed with God be- fore Abrahem and before Adam. "All things were made by Him." No wonder John the :Baptist acknowledges Jesus as of high rank. No wander that when John saw Jesus coming to him he said, "Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sift of the world." Only as we grasp the truth that Jesus was The Son of :,God, can we believe the record of His miracles and believe on Him for the forgiveness. of our sins and the cleansing of our nature. If he were not the Son of God the whole world would he loot for there would be no way back to God. "But as many as received Him, to thein gave Ile power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His game; which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God," If you have received this power then you know that Jesus is the Son of God.

Louis Globe - Democrat Wanted Doctor to Operate With a Sword A crowd of. Burmese stood around Dr. Gordon S. Seagrave, American medical missionary, as he probed and felt the patient in front of hiin. The man was in an advanced stage of tuberculosis , with sinking heart, Seagrave pronounced the ease hopeless. It was one of his 'first cases in that jungle country; and he felt that as he could do nothing for the man native confidence in his powers would vanish. The fellow died, as he had pre - dieted, but instantly the people regarded him as a great prophet! For death holds no terrors for these people who believe in rein- earnation. When he first went out to Liar• ma, Seagrave used to issue pamphlets on religion to his patients and, to his pleasure and astonishment, they always came back for more, "We're doing fine," 110 told his wife. "In no time we'll have thousands of converts!" But disillusionment e a ul e quickly when he discovered that the natives wanted the paper to roll the enormous cheroots in— that even women and children smoked, Doctor Seagrave is One Of the finest friends the Burmese have. Ile went to Burma in 1022, a year alter graduating, and for a time dreaded every new operation he had to undertake. Whenever one about which he knew nothing had 10 be performed, he got out his medical books and swotted it up. Then he would operate, and to his joy, and often aston- ishment, most of his patients recovered. A lucky break occurred when he was summoned to the Scent- ' wa (Prince) of Chefang State -- just over the border in China --who, Seagrave was informed, was dying of malaria. He toiled through almost impenetable jun- gle for three days but arrived at the great Man's bedside just as he was getting control of the fever. The worst was over, but the doctor said nothing and gave him an injection of quinine. The prince recovered, Seagrave was regarded as having performed a miracle—and patients rolled in by the hundred! He had luck, too, with the Sawbwa of Manghsi who was suffering from dysentery; the young doctor obliged with a few injections, the prince recovered .--and another crowd of disciples promptly attached themselves to Seagrave. His hospitals were primitive shacks, and his staff consisted of his wile, a Karen doctor and a girl who had done a year's train- ing in Rangoon. So he had to train his own nurses. The first was a Shan, daughter of the chief torturer to the Sawbwa of Chef- ang, and the second, a Kachin girl, was given to him by a mis- sionary because she was so dull that she failed all her examin- ations. I{e had to teach the Shan girl in Shan, and she passed on her knowledge to the Machin girl in Burmese! While operating, Seagrave 1100 to speak in four languages -- English, Burmese, Shan and Kachin — for his helpers spoke different tongues. As at first he knew Only English, matters were somewhat complicated. Also, there was no nursing textbook in any of the three languages; Seagrave had to learn Burmese and write one in that. Ultimately, he w a s training nurses wise spoke in twelve dif- ferent tongues. Often, when Seagrave was vaccinating Kachin children, he would ask the father's natne. The mother would then giggle. "Good gracious," she would ex- claim, "I don't know! We change husbands so often that we can- not keep trade." Once Seagrave heard two wo- men quarrelling in a bazaar: "You are not half as lovely as I am," jeered one, "you have only three husbands, while I have sev- en." Seagrave found all the tribes • good-humoured, cheerful a n d tough. One morning at Shame, a Hachin with a gastric ulcer came in to be examined. '•I'm afraid," said Seagrave, "you need an operation. The man ripped off his shirt, pulled out a gigantic sword and placed it in the doctor's hand. Then, hopping on to the table, he declared cheerfully: "O,K, Doctor — go ahead!" Unlike Europeans, who desire above ell things to recover from an operation, the Burmese don't seem to mind dying. Without the help of X-ray photographs, Seagrave's diagnoses were some - tunes hazy, and when in doubt he used to say: "My dear chap, you need an operation all right, but I don't know how to do it. You'd better run along home and forget about it," But in a day or two the man would be back. "Doctor, I want you to operate." "But I don't know how, I tett you. I'm afraid you will die." "That doesn't matter. I won't blame you if Ido," With such sanction, the sur- geon would operate, though somewhat reluctantly. Once, he opened a man's ab donmen and put in a rubber tube for • draining. Later, when he looked at the man's wound, the tube had disappeared. "What ere, you looking for, Doctor?" asked the patient. "I'm looking for a rubber tube I stack into you. It's lost," "Qh that, Well, it was hurting me, so I pulled it out and threw it away!" The man recovered; but, when Seagrave went to look for the tube—he was so poor that he couldn't afford to lose it—he found it had been given to a • baby as a dummy! Once, when he went to take the dressing off a hernia case, he found the man had already done so and plucked out the stitches with his finger -nails, When Sea- grave began upbraiding him, he said in aggrieved tones: "Doctor, it itched, I had to scratch ;t. didn't I?" Seagrave's experiences were certainly varied, One old fellow who had been operated on for a large abscess in the neck was so ill that the nurses could get noth- ing down his throat. All he crav- ed for was rotten fish and sour pickle, both great Burmese deli- cacies. "He's bound to die," said Seagrave to his head nurse, "so go out and buy him some of the stuff." But after eating his fill the man began to get better — and, to everyone's astonishment, recovered! In the course of time Seagrave became one of the finest sur- geons in all Asia. He trained a large band of nurses with such skill that they were able to per- form minor operations done only by doctors elsewhere. They sav- ed thousands of Tires in the Burma campaign. Eight Years A Russian Prisoner --- British Pvt, Prank J. W, Kelly, ill and emaciated after eight years in the dark jails of Soviet Russia, sits in a wheel -chair at Hannover, Germany, and con- demns the keds for their brutal treatment of prisoners. Kelly, who several times appeared near collapse, said "I even cut my arm open—here look,' he cried. He showed the long, jagged purple scar which testified to his attempt to• escape Russian captivity through suicide.
