Miss Inez E. Willson, home economist, gives the following rec ipes for some very attractive “made dishes” from left-over lamb. Spanish Lamb Slice raw potatoes very thin and put them ’r the bottom of a well- buttered individual baking dish. Season with salt and pepper and finely minced onion. Moisten with gravy or white sauce. Next add thinly sliced cold ronst lamb. Pour over tomato puree. Sprinkle gen erously with bread crumbs and bake in a slow.oven until the po tatoes are tender. Serve with fresh ly heated peas on top. Panned Lamb with Oysters Here is a dish Which is jl real treat for the jaded appetite. 1 1-2 cups lamb, finely chopped.. 2 tablespoons margarine. 6 oysters. Gravy of stock. Salt. Pepper. Heat the oysters in the margar ine. When they begin to curl, add meat and seasonings. Moisten with gravy or stock and let simmer for ten minutes. Serve on hot toast. Garnish with parsley. , Bread Patty Cases Slice bread two inches thick. Cut out with a round sandwich cuttor and scoop out the inside to form the case. Cut out a lid for each case. Dip the lid and the case in milk and let them dry a little. Then dip them in an egg and milk mixture and fry them to a golden brown in deep fat. Baked Lamb Hash Mix equal quantities of cold cooked chopped lamb and freshly cooked diced potatoes. Moisten with cream sauce. Season with salt pepper, parsley, and onion. Put into a buttered baking dish. Moist en with cream or milk. Cover with crumbs, dot with butter, and bake in the oven until well browned, about twenty minutes.

Christmas is still some distance around the comer, but the postof fice department has not overlooked calling attention to its patrons that early mailing is advisable and it urges everybody to send their gifts long in advance of the Big Day. Following is a paragraph from a pamphlet entitled: “Shop Now and Mail Early for Early Delivery:” N During the holiday time the vol ume of mail increases approxi mately 200 per cent. It is a physi cal impossibility to handle this great mass of mail matter effici ently and promptly within a few days. Therefore to assure delivery of their Christmas presents, cards, and letters by Christmas Day the public should SHOP AND MAIL EARLY. Do your Christmas shop ping so that you can mail your gifts, greetings, and letters to rela tives, friends, and loved , ones at least a week or 10 days before Christmas, according to the dist ance. This will not only make it certain that they are received on or before Christmas day, but will be a great aid to your postal serv ice and to postal employes and en able them to spend Christmas day with their families.

Lesson for November 23 THE RICH YOUNG RULER, REFUS ING A LIFE OF SACRIFICIAL SERVICE LESSON TEXT—Mark 10:17-27. GOLDEN TEXT—And he said unto them all, if any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. PRIMARY TOPIC — A Man Who Failed Jesus. ' JUNIOR TOPIC—A Man Who Failed J 0SUS INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Choices Which Must Be Made. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—What Following Christ Means. I. The Young Ruler (v. 17). For a complete view of the charac teristics of this young man see also Matthew 19:l(>-30 and Luke 18:18-30. 1. l|is virtues. (1) He was courageous. He was a man of high standing—a rich young ruler (Luke 18:18, 23). With manly courage he came to Jesus. (2) Earnest (Mark 10:17). He came and knelt before Jesus, thus showing his earnest sincerity. (3) High aspirations (v. 16). He wanted eternal life. He felt the need of preparing for a life beyond. (4) Pious and moral (v. 20). He professed to have conformed to God’s only law from his youth. (5) He believed that Christ could Inform him of the “good thing” to be done to inherit eternal life. 2. His errors. (1) About Christ (v. 10). He esteemed Jesus to he good, but did not apprehend him as God. (2) Concerning himself. He was self-righteous. He thought he was good and that he cV>uld do something good. (3) Concerning eternal life. He had a defective theology. He thought that eternal life could be ob tained by good works. II. Jesus Dealing With the Young Ruler (vv. 17-22). Jesus skillfully led the young man to see his errors and then put his Hnger on the weak spot in his life. 1. His question: “Why callest thou me good?” (v. 17). His object in this was to lead the young man to a correct apprehension as to who he was. Before giving him a chance to answer he declared that only God was good, as if to say, “I am good and therefore God.” 2. Jesus’ answer to the young man’s question (vv. 17-20). “If thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.” Christ met him here on his own ground; namely, that of the law. He took the young man’s level that the young man’s real worth might be revealed. If one insists on getting life by doing something, the law declares what must be done. It must be perfectly kept. 3. Christ’s command (vv. 21, 22). Replying to Christ’s cUation of (he. commandments of the law, the young man glibly asserted that he had kept them from his youth up. He no doubt was sincere,* but deceived. In Christ's command to go and sell his posses sions and distribute to the poor, he put his finger upon the weak spot. 4. The young yuan’s fatal decision (v. 22). * His going away sorrowful proved that he was covetous and did not love his neighbor as himself. IIL Jesus Showing the Peril of Riches (vv. 23-27). This teaching concerning the peril of riches was most timely. Covetous ness was fast taking hold of the peo ple. Even one of his disciples, Judas, was well under its sway. 1. It is difficult for the rich to enter into the kingdom (vv. 23, 24). This difficulty lies not in the pos session of riches, for a man may pos sess great riches and he an heir of the kingdom. The difficulty lies in trusnng in riches. 2. Entrance into the Kingdom is possible, though difficult (vv. 25, 26). (1) It is possible for the grace of God to sanctify riches. Tlie very thing which hinders may become, a great influence for good in -the hand of a regenerated soul. (2) . It - is possible for the grace of God to open man’s eyes that he see his downward course and repent. (3) It is possible for the grace of God to change a man from self-seeking to self-sacrifice. (4) It is possible for the grace of God to make men humble. IV. Rewards for Following Christ (vv. 27-30). Those who turn their backs upon their kindred and possessions for the sake of Christ shall receive an hundredfold in this life, and eternal life in the world to come.
