sisting in the care of her daugtw ter, Mrs. Roy Niles, who has the measles. George W. Ross, of Chester, Mont., arrived here Tuesday to be with his family, who are spending the winter with Mrs. A. R. Strock. Mr. and Mrs. H. D. Harkless and daughter, Betty, spent a few days last week in Harvey, 111., visiting in the home of his brother, M. J. Harkless. Mrs. Clarence Snyder and Mrs. Arden Geyer spent the last part of the week in Toledo, 0., visiting with their mother, Mrs. John Neff, who is spending the winter in that city with her daughter, Mrs. Truman Ball. The ladies motored through. Osborn & Son hardware advertises a big free demonstration of the wonderful Laundryette washer. It will wash, rinse, blue and dry the clothes without the operator touching them with the

AROUND TOWN ’ News pictures and advertisements are appearing in several national sporting magazines this month, showing a Syracuse-built boat, constructed by the Aero welding company, on south Hunt- , ington st. Be sure to watch for these pictures—or if you really are interested in buying a swell boat, just go to the plant here—they’ll be glad to show you these new metal boats. They are light in weight, strong and durable. The town board has invited representatives of the federal rivers & harbors commission, the state conservation department, the state health department, and representatives from Wawasee to meet with them in the near future, at which time some plan may be evolved to handle the high water situation here in a more satisfactory manner. If you ladies will follow the low prices in the various advertisements in this paper each week you can SAVE your hubby a good many dollars each month. The merchants spend a lot of time to get these specials—and you never see anything but the LOWEST prices on quality goods, either. High prices are never advertised. Read the ads and SAVE. EVERETT MITCHELL Farm Commentator, heard Monday through Saturday. £ls-6:45 a.m. ou WMAQ, Chicago, 670 on your did. ARE your milk profits sagging due . to low {production during these winter months? Well, there’s no reason for you to sit by and let those dollars slip through your fingers, because you can take .steps to bolster production. Remember that milk prices are at their peak in the winter, and that you have more time to devote to the dairy herd in the off season. The number one problem during the winter is to keep the cows supplied with plenty of fresh water. A dairy cow needs from three to five pounds of water for each pound of milk she produces. The water tank should be located in a sheltered spot, under a lean-to shed perhaps. If it is located out in the open a tank heater is almost a necessity, although any method of keeping the water from freezing will be satisfactory. A little extra care in dairy cattle feeding is another step you can take to keep up production during cold weather. Often, when a mature, weathered grade of hay is fed (as is the practice in the winter) cattle refuse to eat enough to maintain a profitable level of production. For every ton of low grade hay a cow is fed, she must consume an extra 500 pounds of concentrates to provide a good, healthy diet. Regularity helps a lot in taking the dip out of the milk production curve. And there’s no excuse for irregular feeding and milking during the winter, when there aren't too many other farm chores to interfere. Finally, try and get the cows outside for at least a little while each day, no matter what the weather is.

~ THE ’ ~ “ , IgT"" 1 JBj' U rail SCRIPTURE: Acts ll:lfr—13:3. DEVOTIONAL READING: Isaiah 43: M. Where We Came In Lesson for Feburary 5, 1950 - A CIRCULAR LETTER came in the other day from a stranger who is hot and bothered because he has discovered that Jews and Negroes can belong to Christian churches along with white Americans. The astonishing thing is not

that that should be true, but that any man should get excited over it. What a s t o n ished the Apostle Paul was not that Jews were i n the Christian church but that anybody else could

be! We must recall _ _ that Jesus was a Dr ‘ Foreman Jew; that all the apostles were Jews; that the first Christian church at Jerusalem was composed exclusively of Jews. • • • New Type •THE CHURCH AT ANTIOCH, one * of the great commercial cities of the Roman world, was where we Gentiles came in. The writer is indebted to his former teacher, Dr. Charles Erdman, for noting four ways in which that church in Antioch was something new. They had no Old Testament, they knew nothing of the Old Testament sacrifices, they had no interest in the Temple or in the history of Israel. Like most Gentiles, they had usually thought of the Jew as a quaint bnt unimportant minority group. Now that these Gentiles were in the same church with Jews, there would be plenty of room for trouble. Could a church made up of such different races become a true Brotherhood? So the old motherchurch at Jerusalem sent up Brother Barnabas to look around. Barnabas was not the church’s most brilliant mind, but he had a heart full of faith. • • • New Leaders /-lOD DOES NOT ALWAYS give the greatest successes to the “big names.” Nowadays every one who knows his Bible knows Paul and Barnabas; but in Antioch both men were unknown at first, and untried. When God wants a Reformation he calls forth a Luther, an obscure man who never fitted any of the existing priestly molds. When God wanted to open up Africa he called David Livingstone; when he wanted men for the far interior of Asia he called Hudson Taylor. When he wanted light to shine down into the slums he called William Booth. These were all peculiar men by the standards of their times; but it takes peculiar men to break away from tradition’s hearth-fire and break out new roads for the Gospel. • • • New Center r>R SOME TIME Jerusalem was the capital of the Christian world. All roads led out from there, so to speak. With the rise of the Antioch church, however, a new center took the place of the old. Jerusalem withered away. In later times Alexandria led, and then other cities. For a thousand years Rome and Constantinople were the acknowledged centers of the Christian world. Now we have also London—New York—Geneva ... Many such centers have small beginnings. In America’s early days the churches of Scotland sent over missionary offerings for the help of the struggling little church of New York. In future years, who knows? Some church in Yunnan may be sending missionaries to the feeble folk left in the war - devastated ex - white world. • • • New Name X NTIOCH is no longer a city of ** any importance. Missionaries go to it, not from it. But old Antioch left us something still cherished, a new name for believers: Christian. That name itself proves something. It proves that the church in Antioch was something more than an aggregation of “churchmen.” It was a family of Christ-men and Christwomen. These believers must < have talked and lived something better than mere vague' “religion.” They talked -of Christ, they loved Christ and they lived Christ, till even their busy neighbors took notice. If your church had no name, and if your neighbors were to name it, and all the neighbors knew about it were yen, by what name would they can it?

GUEST OF HONOR (A Short Story) By RICHARD HILL WILKINSON

nOD BEARDSLEY discounted the ** fact that Vera might be a hero worshiper. And he knew from experience, that hero worshipers were only temporary. •Tm sorry, Stan,” he told his best friend, Stan Carpenter, “but I can’t seem to get steamed up over this Vera Stanhope’s party. What you say about her sudden interest in me may be all right enough; but nine chances out of ten it’s only temporary, And—well, you knoy how I am Stan. I don’t like socalled harmless flirtations.” “Don’t be so staid,” Stan argued. *T tell you the girl’s nuts about you. When you made that last touchdown in the Harvard game she went wild.

Rod Beardsley. I’ve heard so much about him. Stan Carpenter said he was to be here.” “The great Rod,” replied Vera, “is, I’m afraid, a bit high-hat. His modesty forced him to make a negative answer to nay invitation.” The tall youth smiled and tightened his arm about Vera’s waist —an act that Vera resented not in the slightest. She had her standard of morals, but harmless flirtations were not included. Besides, she liked this bey. He was gentle and soft spoken and decidedly handsome. She hoped, secretly, that he would ask her to stroll into the conservatory, and that Stan Carpenter would see them and report what he saw to conceited Rod Beardsley. Mental telepathy might or might not have had something to do with it, but at the end of the dance Vera’s partner steered her toward the conservatory. They found a secluded comer and the tall youth offered her a cigarette. “You know, Vera, I like you. I like you a lot; more, in fact, than any girl I’ve ever known.” It was a simple statement and an old line, but somehow Veia was thrilled. She couldn’t explain why. It just seemed that she knew he meant every word of it. And so she said “Yes?” And waited. He threw away his cigarette and said quite calmly: “Vera, will you marry me?” Well, this was sudden. Rather breathless. “Marry you?" she faltered. “Marry you? Why, we’ve hardly met.” "I know. We’ve hardly met It isn’t quite fair. But that’s the way I feel—and-—well, you might my at least there’s a chance.” “There is—that is, I Ufce you immensely. Yes, a tot. StiH I numt have time to think.” She was dunking of Rod Beardsley, and wished, almost gloatingly, that he had been eavesdropping behind the pakna.
