Zurich Herald, 1945-12-27, Page 7Iinduy School Lesson December 90 World Fellowship of Christians Lesson: Acts 1,0;34--43. Golden Text The same Lord over all is rich tanto all that call upon Him. Ro- znasts 10;12. • Peter's Sermon .cis 10:34.—The eyes of Peter had been opened as a result of his vis- ion. Now he had learned that God bad respect for the Gentiles as well as for the Jews; that He loved both Jews and. Gentiles; that salvation was not exclusive to the Jewish nation. 35.—The pian who honors God and keeps His law, and is a true wor- shipper of God according to his light and privileges is approved by God. Cornelius had faith in, God .and his sincerity was proved in that he embraced Christ as his Saviour when the truth was revealed to him. Christ, the Messiah 36-38—At His baptism the Lord received the anointing of the Holy Spirit. That He was the Messiah was proved by His works of power and goodness. In those simple words, "Who went about doing good," we have such. a true de- scription of the Lord Jesus. He did good because perfect goodness was 43nc of His attributes. First -Hand Witnesses • .39-40.—The truth of the historical facts of Christ's death and resur- rection is confirmed by men who were first-hand witnesses. Our faith is built not only on our spir- itual experience of Christ, but on a solid foundation of incontestable fact. It was unnecessary foi Christ to show Himself to "a11 the people" to prove the truth of His ressurrec- k lion. Even though He had done so many would not have accepted Him. Salvation for All 42-43.—When our Lord command- ed His disciples to preach the Gos- pel he gave them a wide commis- sion, to teach all nations. The prophets fortold that _ all nations would be blessed through the com- ing of Christ, and that salvation ). would be given to all who called on "': Hina. The calling and salvation of the Gentiles was seen afar off. Here is a great truth. "Through His Name 'whosoever believeth in Him shall receive remission of sins." The word "whosoever" em.- braces everybody. Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee 1.

To recall the right, and forgive the wrong; To forget the thing that binds you fast To the vain regrets of the year that's past, To have the strength to let go your hold Of the not -worth -while of the days grown old. To dare go forth with a purpose true, To the unknown task of the year that's new;• To help your brother along the road; To do his work and lift his load; To add your gift to the world's good cheer Is to have and to give a Happy New Year. —Robert Brewster Beattie.

WHAT SCIENCE IS DOING Blind Aid The blind may s- oon have an electrical gadget to help them get around without bumping into ob- stacles. The basic idea, now being workeclout tby the Army Signal Corps, is a small box shooting out • a narrow beam of light, Time re- ports By turning the beam from STOP! COO6iiS ISSUE 32.1945 side to side, the blind man can feel his way. When the beam hits a lamp -post, a fence or any such obstacle, its light reflects back to a lens and is focused on a photo- electric cell. A gentle buzz in an earphone warns him that the ob- stacle is near. The blind man can tell its direction by pointing his box. He can learn to tell how far away it is by the length of the buzz. One problem in designing the instrument was to eliminate false signals from sunshine or artificial light. So the bean 'vas made to pulsate like the radio waves from a radar transmitter, and the photo- electric tube v,as made insensitive to non -pulsating light. At present, the "optical cane" is heavy (nine pounds). and cannot "see" narrow obstacles such as. hanging wires. The signal corps intends to iron out all such corn- - paratively minor faults before of- fering its invention eeethe blind. Important Day New Year's is the biggest festiv- al of the year in China.

Grice-Morgan play decide to put a test well on 1-larper's land. If they should do that—and the well Cane in, you'd know definitely that it was worth while going ahead with this proposition. And if they get a dry hole, you will have saved yourself a lot of trouble and money.” "If they did get a clry hole," ar- gued Harvey stubbornly, "that wouldn't prove that there wasn't oil on my place. Maybe I've got oil and there isn't any on Harper's land. That would be a swell joke on the old buzzard, wouldn't it?" ' Already, in his racing imagina- tion, Harvey was completely de- tached from the present. Adelaide was too busy to drive Gary over into the oil field. "It's the dance at the country club, Gary—the spring dance. It's supposed to be Friday night and I'm on the decorating committee." Gary grinned. "Now we return to the original question, which is— how am I going to get to east Tex- as exas I could go on the bus but it would take all day to walk around the field after I got there. I'd lose a lot of time." "Get Mother to drive you over. It will do her good to get out. And don't forget, you're invited to the dance, Gary." Gary said, a trifle stiffly. "Sorry —I'm afraid I'll be busy." Think- ing that his best suit would look shabby at a dance, no matter what a cleaner could do for it—and, of course, Adelaide would be going with some other fellow—Bob Fer- guson, probably, t * * When the big red concrete ma- chine came roaring" up the drive, Harvey had not been able as yet to complete arrangements about wa- ter. Adelaide sat, excitedly, on an overturned chicken coop. watching the forms being put together and the cement poured in. The rigging crew arrived, and Gary watched them piling off the truck, and gave a shout. "Bill Grant! You old son -of -a -gun!" A tall, bronzed, muscular young fellow took a broad jump off the truck and cane running. "Hi— Gary! What the heck are you do- ing here " They beat each other on the back and pumped hands, while Adelaide watched. "Putting down this well. Ade- laide, this is Bill Grant, the rotten- est. football player that ever fun-' bled a ball. Bill was in school with me. What are you doing with this bunch, Bill?" "Still sticking 'ens up. Worked at it three vacations—then I got out of school and there wasn't any job—so I'm back being a punk again. How do you do, Miss Ma- son?" "So nice you know each other. Gary, to meet Mother. Were you on the same football team?" "Two years. Them was the days, hty, Gary? And now we're dirty working peen and the gals don't give us a look. Not that you're doing so bad, though, you mug. He always wat a heartbreaker, Miss Mason." * * . The men on the trick began to yell. "Gotta go, boys and gals," Bill said. "See you later." He strode away, his long legs swinging in easy rythm. "He's nice—I like him," Ade- laide said. "I'll invite him to the dance." "He should be through and gone by Friday." "Oh, he'll stay—I know he will ii 1 ask him," "Listen. Acielaide. Don't count on me for that dance, I'm all crippled up and 1 haven't the right clothes—" "Oh, Gary, don't be such a snug! Why, I turned down a half a doz- en dates to go to that dance with you. Don't you want to take isle?" "Oh, Great Scott--" he burned with confusion. "Of course I waht toe But -1 thought you'd have an- other date—" "You're sweet, Gary," She pat- ted his arm 'and he forebore to wince when she hit a lame spot. "It's too bad you are so awfully dumb!" * The 'shining steel went up and Gary's heart seemed to soar with it; to weave a glittering web against the April sky. He did not climb, because hia grip was still precarious, but he was rigging that derrick in his mind, clinching every bolt, swinging up every humming beam, At noon he sent word to the house by Slim that he was stay- ing on the job and sat down with the rigging crew to share the lunch that had been brought out in the clattering truck, Bill Grant had declined the invi- tation to have lunch at the house, because he was wearing working clothes and hadn't had time to shave for a couple of days. "If I'd known I was going to meet a girl like that, I'd have put on some clean corduroys, and bear's grease on my hair. Some guys have all the luck. This Ma- son has money, hasn't he? Any man who'll put a wildcat down on his own must have a roll. Maybe I won't go down to the coast. May- be I'll stick around for that dance. r can always get a job." And that, Gary thought dubious- ly, was not such a good idea, either. (To be continued) 4725 SIZES S. let. L.
