Exodus 5 M, 23; MQOLD*N TEXT?Call upon in? In the J" J of trouble: I will deliver thee, end thou ' ahalt glorify me.?Psslm SO:IS. Why doesn't God do something? 1 People are quick to ask such a question in a time of crisis. Today they ! want to know why God permits the i war to go on. In the day of our 1 lesson Moses wanted to know why j God did not deliver His people from Egypt. He and Aaron had been ap! pointed of God to lead them out, but their first efforts only met with fall1 ure and increased persecution. The complaint of Moses, and the response of God make an instructive story for our consideration and guidance. It will answer our questions. ~ * I. Moses Said, "Thou Hast Not Delivered Thy People" (Exod. 5:22, 23). When the efforts of Moses brought heavier burdens on the people they blamed him and Aaron for making their situation worse. This and shame made them doubt God a calling and commission. How quickly men are discouraged in their purpose to serve God. The people were wrong in their attitude. They should have been patient. They ought not to have assumed that the loss of the first skirmish meant the loss of the whole campaign. ; ? "* Are we not Just like them? Thi new minister or the recently elected Sunday school superintendent mini a mistake and instead of helping him to pick up the pieces and start over, we decide that he Just will not do, that We must have a change. Even though the people were wrong, however, the man of God should not have lost his faith ana accused God oI failure to keep His promise. He was supposed to have learned the lesson of patience in the long years on the backside of the desert. Had he forgotten the experience of the burning bush? II. God Said, "I Am Jehovah, Thou Shalt See What I will Do" I (Exod. 0:1-7). In other words, Moses was to remember that he was dealing with the Eternal One, unchangeable, and always true .to His word and able to make His will come to pass. So often men in dealing with God think of Him in terms of their owrt weakness and failure. What we need is to hove a Godlike conception of God, not a manlike idea of Him. God is the infinite and Eternal One with whom we have no right to quarrel, and whose dealings with us , are too high for us to judge (Ps. , 139:1-6). God's covenant with His people | was established (v. 4). He had heard their cry (v. 5) and His deliverance was sure (v. 6). The only thing Moses had to do was to wait and see God work. That word "wait" is a little one. It seems to call for no effort, to be easy of fulfillment; yet it seems to be the hardest thing for a human being to do. Men who carry the burden of active warfare with ease and with honor become discouraged and sick when they must sit in a prisoner's concentration camp and .wait for deliverance, i") Christians who can speak and work for God when things are active and moving become querulous and despondent when they have to wait for something to happen, or when they are laid aside for a time. His promise is sure. That is not Just a religious sentiment. It is a fact, and it is proved by history. Note that in the case of Moses? III. History Said, "It Came to Pass the Selfsame Day" (Exod. 12: Moses had to take God s word, for "the selfsame day," which we read here came later. It came in God's own time, after He had, through Moses, humiliated and broken the. hard will of. Pharaoh.

' MU8T MAIL SOLDIERS' GIFT8 FOR FOREIGN 8HORE BY OCT. 15 (Continued from first page) Christmas parcels for the men overseas must not exceed thto present limitations of five pounds In weight or 16 Inches In length or 36 Inches In length and girth combined. Not more than one Christmas parcel may be accepted for mailing by personnel In nny one week when sent by or on behalf of the same person or concern to or for the same address. Parcels must be strongly and carefully boxed, wrapped and tied and plainly and fully addressed. He gave His people the" great memorial feast of the Passover, teaching them the needed lesson that redemption is by the shedding of blood. In that night Jehovah did bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt. That deliverance was as certain the day He made the first promise to Abraham (v. 3, and Gen. 12:1-3) hundreds of years before, as it was now that it had been accomplished. History is really God's story, revealing His outworking of His plan for mankind. The torn and blotted pages are man's handiwork. Sin and unbelief have caused him to hinder the work of God, but God is not defeated, and in the midst of man's aelf-created chaos, He proceeds quietly to work out His own j purpose. The many prophecies of Scripture which have been fulfilled not only prove its divine inspiration, but demonstrate its dependability. Every promise of God is "yea and amen" in Christ (II Cor. 1:20, 21). We can count on that!

When asked how he felt after finishing a marathon race, Clarence De Mar. seven times winner of the 26 mile Boston Marathon, gave an answer that might well apply to any marathoner. He said that he felt very much waked up -and- cXfiTTOTutad. I know of no better way to express it. rtfn his text on Human Physology. Dr Crandall mentions a recording made of the effects of exercise upon a trained and an untrained person, both of whom were working near the limits of their ability. Their pulse rate was the same (158 and 150), but the trained person's heart pumped twice as much blood, and he did three times the amount of work the untrained subject could do. Running strengthens the heart in a gradual manner. The heart may acquire the ability to pump more blood without becoming larger. Long distance miners have stronger hearts, therefore a lower pulse rate when at rest. ,A number of the Finns had pulses pf about 40 beats per minute (resting). Cunningham's was around 42. I started running at an early age as did Mac Mitchell of N. Y. U. This past year found his pulse to be 32?mine was 38 when at the peak of my training.

I had suggested running as a method of reducing to them, and the fellow laboratory technicians called my bluff (und,er the condition that T run with them). The next evening found five thinly clads plodding along a country road?one looking quite embarrassed and out of place. After a few hundred yards, both my legS- cramped, and 1 had to quit. I could hardly walk. The next day found my leg muscles quite painful. The reason? Training too exactly?for years I had worked to perfect my stride; when 1 used short steps in running with the girls, the new stride and consequent variation In tension on the leg muscles caused severe cramps, A muscle must be trained before it can function properly In a run." It is of interest to note how the bodily movements particular to Jogging assist the heart In Increasing blood circulation. It has been found that a contracting muscle presses its veins and forces blood to flow through them. The system of valves in the veins allow only a one directional flow. A rythmatic contraction, as in running, causes a steady flow into the larger veins when the lungs lend a hand, 1. e. in regular deep breathing moments of negative Intrathoracic pressure are produced which tend to draw blood from the veins of the abdomen into those of the thorax. The strain on the heart is not nearly so severe as was one time Imagined, if it can be called a strain at all. "Running, I believe, is the oldest and most natural form of beneficial exercise known to man. Marathonlng requires conscientious and continued effort, but to one who is persistent,' a new quality of health and well being will in time bring him out on top?will produce a winner in the long run." Seaman's Ideal has long been Clarence De Mar, holder of many marathon records and seven times winner of the I3oston Marathon.

To develop this true thirst there must be a purpose or a goal. < Just today I was looklug through one of my school notebooks and found this quotation underscored from the facile pen of Aristotle, the greatest thinker of his time: "AW ^ho have meditated on the art governing mankind have been convinced that the fate of empires depends on the education of youth." No truer words were ever uttered. That Is why we must, protect and develop our educatloual system. That 1 la why we must risk everything to keep politics and graft from our educational Institutions. That Is why you must Bet up a goal and then aqulre a thirst for knowledge. * You must realise that education Is the very bed rock of our democracy; that profound knowledge,- If you are capable of It to this decree, Is your debt and duty to society.

Bishopville Has Clever Idea To Hurry Up Traffic 1 f Camden people who have had occasion to, visit Bishopville of late report that city has made a great stride in the speeding up of pedestrian traffic in tho-down town sector. Down the center of the sidewalks in the business area has been painted a white line and people who wish to spend hours in gossip and visiting must keep on the curb of this line, leaving the Inner half of the walk free for people who are shopping and in a hurry to get from store to store. In Camden there is no such provision and It is practically impossible at times to make dhy'fTfogress along the east side of Broad street between DeKalb and Rutledge streets. ThlSj Is particularly true on Saturdays when crowds of colored shoppers Jam the sidewalks and in many instances force people to walk in the street. 4 Of late it is said the parking of cars on Broad and DeKalb streets in the business area has become a problem* due to the failure of the police to enforce the one hour parking limit. Last Saturday a survey ?t the block between DeKalb and RutI ledge streets found cars parked all i afternoon without molestation by poI lice officers. j The five minute parking limit in front of a two car space on DeKalb street In front of the post office has also become a matteT of history as this area is filled nightly by cars bearing the plates of civilian employees of the Southern Aviation school. Don't Give Weevils Ten Million Dollars Columbia, July?With an average boll weevil Infestation of 18 per cent in the cotton fields of the state reported by county agents this week, the weevil situation is becoming more serious day hy day, says David R. Hopkins, boll weevil control speciali 1st of the Clemson Extension service. ! Immediate and effective poisoning with calcum arsenate dust during the next two weeks would save a large part of the loss which is otherwise sure to be felt from weevil damage, Mr. Hopkins says. Weevil damage to the cotton crop of the state has averaged 12 per cent In the last four years. That average loss applied to the 1943 crop would mean the equivalent of 99,460 bales eaten up by weevils. At 20 cents a pound, that would mean a loss of $9,946,000 worth of lint besides 44,767 tons of seed, ar a total loss of more than $11,500,000. Can the average South Caorllna f farmer afford to lose his pro rata , share of this tremendous loss? Geo.
