By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D. Os The Moody Bible Institute. Chicago. 'T'RUTH must be translated into * living, and there is no place where it can be more effective than in the home. We will want to make much of this lesson, for it is the only one during the entire year which deals directly with the home The book of Proverbs, to which we were introduced last Sunday, abounds tn practical advice with a definitely spiritual emphasis, a combination at once wholesome and effective. This is the first of eight lessons making application of Proverbs to the problems of modern life Everyone in the home has a measure of responsibility for making the family life what it ought to be. No one from the small child to the great-graadmother Is without influence, and each must contribute to the welfare of the home. Our lesson reaches from the young person to the grandfather rejoicing in his children's children. It begins quite properly with I. Tenth Looking to Parents (1:8. •; 6:30-23; 23:22-26) people want to be well- * dressed and properly groomed They are interested in that which adorns and improves their appearance. It is right that they should have such concern Let us remind them, however, that a young man or woman should not only be phys ically well-groomed, but spiritual ly attractive as well If we should give as much thought to that side of our beings as we do to our bodies, there would be wonderful improvement In the life of the individual and to the home. . The child who is properly instructed. and who is responsive to that instruction. is prepared for life no matter where it may lead him (6:22) Wherever and whenever he needs guidance, night or day. it is with him. Even when he sleeps, he is in the hand of God for blessing. Let no young man or woman be betrayed lata that awful folly of our day which neglects the teachIng of parents and of the church. Disaster is ahead on that road —sure disaster, and, swift! But now look at the other side of the matter, where we see . 11. Parents Looking After Tenth <19:16; 22:6). ' | 'HERE is a foolish idea current * In our day which says that the way to rear children is to let them develop according to their own interests and instincts, without discipline or definite guidance. The fruits of that kind of child training are now being harvested in the present crop of juvenile delinquents. We have the sad and awful proof before us that children cannot be reared that way We are not pleading for a return to the unduly restrictive measures of some of our forefathers; children are not helped by harshness or cruelty. But there is a proper place for definite Instruction. for discipline, yes. even for chastening when that becomes necessary. The larger part, and the most effective part, of this matter is the training at the child (22:6) and when properly done it brings forth the fin est of results in later life The boy who has been taught and directed right may, get on a sidetrack for a time, but there Is always the promise of a return to the right way This business of rearing children calls for the best any of us can put into it. and over and above that, all the grace and wisdom that God can and will give us We have reserved one verse for our final point, for here we find 111. Age and Youth Working Tw gether (17:6). OLD men need encouragement, and they receive tt lb no Heber or mere satisfying measure than in the delight they take in their children's children. Tonng people should remember that and not fail to give to their grandparents. as well as their, parents the full measure of their interest and devotion. But now note that "the glory of children are their fathers." yes. and grandfathers. How sad It is when a boy has to be ashamed of his fa ther or one of his grandparents. That puts on each one of us wto. has children a truly weighty reaper sibility. We must walk worthily be fore God. and before our children even down to old age. when our grandchildren look to us for an ex ample of godliness and gracious liv tog. May God help us!

»' ' F Can Your Most Luscious Fruit (See recipe below.)

Fruit Preserving This is the year many women have waited so year when they could obtain unlimited quantities of sugar to put up all the fruit in their orchards, and berries in their patches. ’ For many of us. it has been so long since we put up fruit in any quantity that a quick brush-up of methods is essen- '-r tial. As in all big undertakings, the underlying organ- Xffr'Ay - An izational work is most important. and this can be ' done the day before. The day before you begin actual canning, check on equipment to be sure that it works properly. For fruit and berry canning you will need a water bath, which may be a large kettle or broiler, fitted with a rack, and a tightly fitting cover. Or. you also may use a pressure pooker for processing, but this is not as essential for fruits as it is for vegetables. You will need several large pans and kettles for preparing the fruit and for making the syrup. You also will need to prepare jars, checking them tor cracks and imperfections, and washing them in hot soapy suds. Make certain you have enough covers or lids. Estimating Amounts Although fruits and berries vary in size and moisture content, it is still possible to make some sort of estimate as to how much syrup and the number of jars you will need. For sweet fruits, you will use a syrup made of 2 cups of sugar to 4 cups of water; for slightly acid fruit, use 2 cups of sugar to 3 cups of water; tor acid fruit. 2 cups of sugar to 2 cups of water is ample If the fruit is very acid. 2 cups of sugar to 1 cup of water is essential. The syrup is made simply by adding the sugar to the water and boiling together for 5 minutes. If you are canning large fruits sueh as peaches and pears, allow Ipint of syrup to a quart jar of ** fruit For small .‘A« B fruit, or berries. — F° u “eed only a half pint ' ' ' syrup t 0 the j quart I v» yWa The amount of fruit usually depends upon the size, but ordinarily we count 2 pounds of fruit for the quart jar. This will aid in estimating your yield Method *f Packing Some fruits and berries are hotpacked. but most women prefer using the cold pack method for preparing fruit for canning as it takes less time. If the fruit is carefully packed, there will be little floating. Wash and clean the fruit peeling and coring, slicing and stoning when necessary. Pack into sterile jars and attach the ltd. using manufacturers' directions. Process by placing the fruits in a boiling water bath, making certain that the water comes to two LYNN SATS: Save Time.

A Slave Laborer Protests This department has received a letter from a housewife saying it is about time she got some of the labor benefits, and demanding a little attention. “I am the most over-worked, over-rushed, over-bur-dened, over-tired, over-exploited worker in this country,” she declares. <( and all this yelling about slave labor makes me sick.” The letter runs: ‘‘Dear Sir: If you are looking for somebody who really has an honest kick about working injustices I’m your gal.
