Here we find Him with a glowing ? upon which fish is broiling, and th bread ready for these hungry ? It was just like Him thus to Mt in most delightful and satisan fellowship those who serve ? Draw up to the fire, Christian ends who are standing afar off. ,u may be so timid that, like the tciDles, you will not dare to call I m by name (v. 12), but if you will me you will find that the precious lowship wiU soon warm your With the meal over, Christ turned Peter and in their conversation i find the latter required to j . Face Responsibility (vv. 1&-17). With kindly persistence our Lord >ught Peter face to face with his iponsibility of full-hearted devotion Him. Before service can be renred there must be a right relationp to the Lord. , , ) [hree times Peter was asked to dare his love for Christ. Such a jlic confession was quite in place, ore the man who had thrice ded his Lord was restored to a place leadership. The words "more n these" (v. 15) indicate that ius was asking of him a high iasure of devotion. It is no more n He has a right to expect of us. he conversation after breakfast t morning was a very profitable i. One is reminded, by contrast, t few of our mealtime discussions very useful. Many (perhaps Lst) after-dinner - speeches and Bversations yield little profit. Here an occasion when such was not I case. One wonders whether we I Lid not be wise to take the sugItion and turn our thoughts and Ise of our dinner guests to spiritu- I things. Surely it should be so 1 ong Christian friends and in a istian home. I. Feeding Christ's Flock (vv. 17). k review the same verses to nt out that an expression of love Christ means nothing except as nanifests itself in service. Like *r, we are to be diligent about ding His flock, whether they be young and inexperienced lambs, the mature sheep of the fold. k tend to specialize. Even in 1-winning some give themselves child evangelism while others ch only adults, and would hardly ik of dealing with a child. True i that we have varying gifts, and does one type of work better a another. But let us avoid overcialization. Every needy soul is i ballenge to us as we present the pel. j he word "feed" should be, I issed. Here again the church has juently failed. Men and women won to a decision for Christ, and J i forgotten. Sheep must be fed I hey are to grow. A teaching I istry must accompany the evanstic effort. They belong together, I to neglect either i4 to fail, at 'ti in that measure. j I. Follow Him to the End (w. I 4). ndlessly ingenious are the de- I ft OJL Satan,, He. who iiad sifted I Peter Tike wheat (Luke 22731) and had rejoiced in the weakness of his denial of Christ, now saw him stepping out into victorious living. He heard the prophecy of the martyr death of Peter. So he put into his heart a question. Why should he suffer? What about John? What was the Lord going to dd for him? When our enemy cannot trip us up with temptation to personal sin, he resorts to the device of jealousy. Many promising Christian workers have become useless' because they have taken their eyes off Jesus and put them on the persons and work of other Christians. Doing a work which was difficult and unnoticed but very important to God, they have felt the urge to quit because someone else seemed to have the easier task and receive more recognition. The answer of Jesus in verse 22 plainly states that it is not the place of one disciple to judge the course of life of another, nor to gauge his own devotion to Christ by another's place or service. , The word of Christ to us is the Same as to Peter: "Follow me." We have all we can do to live our own lives in a manner well-pleasing to our Lord. i The United States pays mine own- ! ers of South Africa twice as much for i gold as it costs to produce it. miLCAN!

Wartime Machinery Needs Lubrication Clemson, April.- Good lubrication is one'of the moat important Items to consider in the efficient use of wartime farm machinery. Urease is cheaper than repair partH aud should be used generously or according to manufacturers' directions on all machines. So declares C. V. Phagun. Clemson extension engineer, who suggests that at least once a year It is advisable to clean out bearings, wherever there is a possibility' of grouse clogging up and preventing an adequate supply of fresh grease as needed. Good lubrication means more than using plenty of grouse and oil, Phagan continues, it means using the right kind of lubricant in the right pluce, at the right ^tlme, and in the right amount. Too many times the grease or oil hole is flooded and then allowed to go without attention before the next application is made. A better practice Is to use smaller amounts at more frequent intervals. _ Every squeak and rattle on farm machinery nowadays is a distress cry for help.
