Thor# are yet four months, and then com- eth harvest? behold, I say unto you. Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to hare eat. (John 4:35.) Solomon, an Indian Christian, was an exhorter in his church. He was quiet and unassuming. He wanted to farm, but there was no land for rent and he was not able to buy. Then he heard that twenty miles away in the jungle was a for est village where he could get a piece of land by being watchman for the village. Solomon was the first Christian to go live in that village. For a whole year we did not see him. He was almost forgotten. Finally, in need of supplies, he came again to the mission station, and then returned to his village. He had not talked much. Several more years passed and Solomon was seldom seen. Then one day he came to the missionary and said he had a group ready to become Christians. He requested us to send a minister to baptize them. This we did That group of young converts became the nu cleus of a thriving church reaching, out in Christian love after other people and encouraging them to accept Christ. PRAYER t Our Fmthar, w* need 'meu and women in all. lands to) go into the fields to win souls for our Lord. Help us in our church to appeal to our young people in such ways that they will desire to enter Christian service. In Jesus* name.

Jhe usual noon and evening assembly programs, music and after entertainment f e a t ur e s have been arrauged , Textile Vacation Period Causes Rise In Payment Claims Shutdown of textile plants for vacation periods, usual at this time of the year, and the availa bility of a new quarter’s wage credits caused initial claims for state unemployment insurance to rise by 632 from the preceding week to 2,473 for the week end ing July 7. A number of workers in plants closing for vacation periods are ineligible for vacation pay and file for benefits to cover the time lost. Some unemployed' work ers. whose claims had previously been determined ineligible due to insufficient wage credits, filed at the beginning of July because of the inclusion of a new quarter’s wage credits in the base period used foi? determining benefit rights. The increase in initial claims was fairly general over the state with 21 of the 29 employment service local offices showing gains from the preceding week. The Liberty local office showed the largest increase in initial claims (223) due chiefly to the shutdown of a textile firm for a vacation period.
