Not only are farmers exempted from paying the tax on slaughter ings for their households, but they are not responsible for the tax on hogs which they themselves slaugh ter for sale to retailers or commer cial handlers. The responsibility for the tax on such slaughter has been placed upon the handlers since November 5, 1934. Conse quently, farmers are now liable for the processing tax only upon hog products which they sell directly to, or exchange directly with the con sumers, in excess of certain ex emptions.

The story of the Gentile Cor nelius brought to the Master by the Jewish Peter is most fascinating, Cbmelius was almost the first, if noi actually the first, Gentile con vert. He had never seen Jesus in the flesh, and was nurtured in a distinctly Roman atmosphere. But out Mm the grey light of paganism lie first walked into the 'brighter rays of Judaism, becoming a pros- 6r pod-fearer, who Observ- three primal laws of Jewish aims, prayers, and fasts, tf- ip the proridenc^ of GOq, ne came into thC full Maze of truth. When we look at Cornelius what do we see? First we behojd a nfetn who represents the militaS*y ideal, a soldier, both before and his Christian profession. Ttierefore we Are not surprised to find in him tfr? capacity for obe dience. When the angel instructed f.4*.Jqcr ' r i v • / •>* » ;■ * him to “send men to Joppa” to fetch Peter, he at once complied. Secondly we note in Cornelius a man who was faithful to the best light he had. There were certain Jewish rites, such as circumcision, which did not appeal to him. ' But he was loyal to all he could accept In these modern days of intense confusion what we must all learn to do is to accept what we can be lieve, and then follow its light with fidelity. Let us anchor to what we are sure of, and build on that. In the third place we see in Cor nelius a man who accepted further knowledge. His mind was not closed. In open-minded fashion he responded to more light. And so it is ho wonder that when he had heard Peter’s message the Holy Spirit fell upon him. Thus he was richly blessed. And now note that Peter, by this contact, was made a new man. He was broadened out. He saw that “God is no respecter of persons.” He lost his parochialism, his na tionalism. He learned the tre mendous truth that all men every where are united by the bonds of God’s forgiving love in Christ.
