Advertise in Ifcn People-Sentinel DtFrank Crane Says MILK Milk is perhaps the most ideal food for a human being. It is our only food in infancy and a food too little used by adults. It has &een called “the perfect food.” It is a food, however, that is hard to keep, for it readily spoils at too great a tempera rare. We have preserved all other kinds of foods, we have salted fish, canned vegetables and fruit, canned meat and smoked ham. In 1851 a man went to England with a meat biscuit he had invented. On the ship on which he traveled there were cows to give fresh milk. At that time most vessels resembled floating barnyards, that is, most vessels that pretended to give human comfort The inventor observed on his return trip home in the summer that the cows were sea sick, the milk was bad and many babies died. Coming home he devised a process of drying milk and rannmg it After much difficulty the enterprise was successful. It grew to great proportions during the Crril War, when the govern ment bought the entire output of his factories. Since then preserved milk has been a boon to all explorers whether in the frozen regions of the north or in darkest Africa. Herbert Hoover preserved the lives and health of some 1,200,000 Belgian children by condensed milk. Our own Mr. Strauss has proved himself a public benefactor by supply ing pure milk for babies. Anv traveler in Europe is familiar with the dirty'thilk that is supplied everywhere from milkmen s cans. These have been replaced almost entirely in America by the bottle. Still about 6,000,000 children in the United States between the ages of two and fourteen are undernourished. They arc stunted for lack of proper food, usually for lack of milk. The various companies handling milk have done much good by disemmating knowledge as to the value of pure milk. Pure milk has as much to do with preventing infant mortality as any other one thing In China, years ago, when they had plenty of cows, they created a greet civilization, now that they have cut down their forests and eaten their cows they kill as many babies as they raise. You cannot brii^ up a child, with success, on tea. T>**c health departments in the various dries which are insistTt* on port milk and the companies which owe their success to the distribution of pure milk, deserve all encouragement. Nothing could be of more importance to the public health than the maintenance of a supply of pure milk. iy SchoolLesso# LOCAL AND PERSONAL NEWS FROM ELLENTON Ellenton, Nov. B.

Samuci D. Rnce, DD. Limitless opportunities to help others are within the power of every one who knows how to pray. When Paul could not give direct help where he would or when his little was not enough he always had recourse of prayer. He had written to the Thcssalonians “Pray with out ceasing” and he constantly practiced his own preaching. The Scripture chosen for this lesson suggests only a few of the many prayer experiences of Paul. Others indicated by the Lesson Committee are Romans 1:8-10; Ephesians l;15-23, I Thcssalonians 12:5. In addi tion there are many prayer references in the thirteen letters that Raul w rote. A fine book for general reading is “The Man Paul,” Robert E. Speer, D.D., in which there is an especially helpful chapter on “His prayer life.” Much more is involved in prayer than merely asking for what we may desire. 1 here are conditions that we must meet before we can begin the asking. Jesus <?ffered a safeguard in prayer that we will do well to follow invariably as we also say “Thy w’ill be done.” Then there is an orderly sequence as we are having an audience with the Most High God, such as Adoration, Thanksgiving, Confession, Peti tion and further Thanksgiving before we say “Amen,” so let it be. Two books by the late Andrew Murray have been very helpful: “\V ith Christ in the School of Prayer” and “Ministry of Intercession.” \es, the subject is one for life long study and practice. Paul gives us a helpful start. Ephesians was written from Rome during th^ first imprisonment. Paul was limited in the flesh as he was constantly chained to some— Roman soldier but his mind and spirit were, free to reach Ephesus by way of the throne of Jehpvah. He rejoices at the good report which comes concerning the continuing and enlarging faith of his beloved in Ephesus. Then he reminds them of the positive help he is obtain ing for them through intercessory prayer. Just as long as one can reach up to God he can, through the pow r er of the Almighty, reach out to any person or place in all the world. Such was Paul’s habit in maintaining his life work. He did not make self interest the burden of his petitions but asked great things , for others through Jesus Christ, for such a joyous privilege was according to the promise given to him and to every one of us. Samuel refused to lay down his prayership though his judgeship had been taken away by the people when they asked for a king. This prophet said “God forbid that I should sin against Him in ceasing to pray for you,” I Samuel 12:23. Some of the content of one of Paul’s prayers is indicated in Eph. 3:15-21. For five versos there is a massing of petitions before we find a single period. • His posture is down on both kne«, out in mind he faces the Throne. Read that prayer a number of times.^Better still, commit it to memory and use it as you seek large blessings for others, and '’especially for any one who is ill-treating you. A fine indication that you have forgiven is when pray wholeheartedly for the one who has wronged you. There is nw limitation in the love or forgive ness of the Christ, Who can do “exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think.” It is mighty to be on praying terms with such a Kmc! j _ *' V*i I’sna mm m y .. \ y \\ \ . *. for any man to be out driving • • • but time and the •fork wait for no man • • « and all of a sudden here comes Doc Bigelow’s Nash slithering up to the F.
