There are many Passages of scripture In He Cl,t<l r tfli * with the read ■ g in Luke the Golden Text Dr. Newton from John 1:40. "He brought him to Jesus." • • • WHAT ANDREW TOLD HIS FRIENDS WHEN Andrew met Jesus, and discovered in him the Saviour of men. he went and found his brother. Simon, and said unto him. "We have found the Messiah, which is, being Interpreted, the Christ,” John 1:41. What do we tell our friends? Do we not delight to tell our friends what we have found to be good? This was the mission of Andrewtelling his friends about Jesus, for he had found in Jesus that which was good. John the Baptist had told Andrew about Jesus, and he was determined that he would tell everyone who would listen this good news. • • • HOW ANDREW KNEW ABOUT JESUS ANDREW got his impressions of Jesus firsthand. When he heard John the Baptist say, "Behold the Lamb of God that take th away the sin of the world," he went on to inquire about Jesus, and Jesus bade him and John spend the day with Him. They did. from 10 o'clock in the morning until late afternoon That was enough. Andrew knew from that day about Jesus. He was now ready to tell others what he knew about Jesus. Do we know Jesus well enough to tell others about him? If a fisherman could tell the story effectively, cannot everyone? But let us remember this, no man can introduce his friend to Jesus until he hirnself knows Jesus. • • • THE MAN WHO BROUGHT OTHI HS LET S look for a moment at some of the people Andrew brought to Jesus We begin, of course, with Sima hts brother Here. I think, is the highest test of his ability to tell others about Jesus—bringing his own brother. It is often easier to teii strangers about Jesus than those <4 our own family And t.iw we see Andrew yonder in the multitude, finding the lad with the loaves and fishes, and bringing him to Jesus. That is the test of seeing the right person at the right time And again this is the acid test of introducing people to Jems. Again, we see Andrew sensing the fact that some young Greeks had eome a long way to see Jesus. He knew how to help them In this In cident we see the final example of winning people to Jesus—cultured Greeks, who were familiar, we may assume, with the current thought of the world. But this simple fisher man of Galilee knew how to approach them, bow to gain their at tention. how to bring them jo Jesus see THEY WAIT FOR THE ANDREWS TODAY THE world waits for some An drew today J fully believe that moat people could be won io Christ if naiy there were enough Andrews Rarely have J had a person to repel me when 1 faithfully followed the leading at the Holy Sptri’ to speak to such person about Jesus Andrew did not rely upon his own resources He went in the might of the fx>rd He knew what Jesus had dcwie for him He yearned tn see ah men emoy their Messing He was s afmple mess«ge»—a voice And God gave him words—words that fell like go< d seed mto fertile soil Ao may *e 'oday tntruduee our friards to Jesus Only let ue re men oer this—we must first know him' e e e *r '*• -'Meraottoeel Cewoo w a Aetata Afwwtas ta ktatar 1 w • I ta^^^^taaeas eye -Isl to P 9b* WNe ytataees.l Philosophy ' ?, —._ A tittle philosophy tnelmeth man > minrt to atheism, but depth to phil oeuyty brtogeth man e mtod abow to rsdigton -Racon Tty to do to others as you would hove them do to you. and do we' be dtooeurageo d they foil wo

Truman Officially Appoints Campbell Washington. Aug 13 — (UP) Alexander M. Campbell, former U.S. attorney at Ft. Wayne. Ind , today became assistant general in charge of the criminal division of the justice department. Campbell recently took office on an acting basis and was appointed officially to the post by President Truman yesterday. Mr. Truman sent his recess appointment to the senate during the special session for confirmation, but It was not considered EVERY SIXTH (Cont. From Page One) the social security system. Some 3.205.131 farmers also received annual checks ranging from a fewdollars to several hundred for soil conservation practices. Why is the federal government such an expensive proposition now as compared with 192 V? For one thing this is a much bigger country than it was 29 years ago. Roughly 34 million more people live here now than in 1920. (The population today is 143,400,000). Other things that have contributed to the expense bulge are the unprecedented na tlona) (resulting largely from the second World War), national tense, foreign aid. veterans' bene'fits and the Increase in federal services to taxpayers as a result of the so<alled new deal "reforms.” ' 1. Public debt: The national debt now stands at something over 1253,000,000.000. It cost 35.250.000. 000 to pay the Interest alone on this debt this year. All govern rnent spending in 1920 totaled only about 11.000,000,000 more than it costs now just to pay the interest.

2. Defense and foreign aid: The accelerated defense program has added several billion dollars to this year's budget estimates. Defense spending this year will be around 114,000,000,000 compared with |2,35(7,000,000 in 1920. Foreign aid is budgeted for around $7,000,000,000 this year.’ 3. Veterans benefits; They total more than >7,000,000,000 this year —exceeding the entire national budget of 1920. 4. Federal services to taxpayers: The increase here results in the main from such new deal measures as social security, soil conserva tion and price support programs for farmers. While costs of government have been growing, so has national income. National income was >69,800,000,000 in 1920. .Now it is booming along at a rate of $216,300,000,000 a year. The percentage of national income devoted to federal spending as a result of increased taxes, however, has more than doubled in that span of time. The $0,403,343,000 spent by the treasury In 1920 was 9.1 percent of total national income then.
