Rim the strap through the buckle and tighten it around the cap. This enables you to get a good grip on the lid. * * • Preserving Bright Color.—Cook ing preserves or jelly rapidly helps to retain the bright color of the fruit. The addition of pectin shortens the necessary cooking time. • • • Crab Savory.—1 crab, 3 toma toes, 1 lettuce, watercress, 1 egg, pepper and salt. Shred the crab meat finely and mix with a little mayonnaise. Wash the lettuce and arrange leaves around and at the bottom of the dish. Place some crab in the center, then season with pepper and salt; add slices of tomato and hard-boiled egg and watercress. • • • Dried Peel.—It is nice to dry the skins of several oranges and lem ons and grate them, then putting them in a glass bottle in the re frigerator to be kept for flavoring purposes. It certainly saves time in the future and one is inclined to use these flavorings in interest ing ways if already at hand. > • • * Using Kerosene Safely.—One of the safest ways of using kerosene is to mix it with wood or coal hashes, then use a few spoonfuls of this mixture when starting or re kindling a fire. This can be stored for regular use in a gallon bucket or other suitable container. WNU Service.

Lesson for October 31 THE MORAL ISSUE IN THE DRINK PROBLEM LESSON TEXT—Romans 13:12-14; X Corinthians 6:9-11; Galatians 5:16-24. GOLDEN TEXT—Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.— Galatians 5:16. PRIMARY TOPIC—My Neighbors. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Greatest Law. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— Why Is It Wrong to Drink Alcoholic Bev erages? YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— The Moral Issue in the Drink Problem. The title for our lesson is well- chosen—“The Moral Issue in the Drink Problem.” First, let it be clear that there is an issue. Those who have business, social, or political connections with the liquor traffic would like to have us believe that the repeal of prohi bition settled the matter once for all. But let us be sure of this fact— the liquor problem is at our very door, and It must be met. In the second place, many would have us think that the matter of drunkenness is a social, political, or even a physical problem, without any moral implications whatever. But those who are informed know that even the supposedly innocent beer is inextricably tied up with vice and crime. A prisoner in a fed eral penitentiary writing before pro hibition was repealed said, “Crimi nals hail with delight . . . the re turn of liquor via the beer route and the greater license that the return of the saloon will inevitably bring. With the return of beer will come open prostitution and gambling.” His words were true. I. Drunkenness Is a Work of Dark ness (Rom. 13:12-14). Just as there are darkness and daylight in the physical universe, so there are two contrasting spiritual realms, of darkness and light. Men “loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil,” according to the Lord Jesus. (See John 3:19.) This spiritual realm of darkness is directed by “rulers of the darkness of this world” (Eph. 6:12), and their purpose is “spiritu al wickedness.” With the “works of darkness” the believer is to “have no fellowship” (Eph. 5:11), but is to “reprove them” and bring them into the light where their true na ture is made manifest (Eph. 5:13). “God is light, and in him is no darkness at all,” and those i who have fellowship with him “walk in the light.” (See I John 1:5-7.) Drunkenness is a work of dark ness. It separates man from God and makes him fear the glorious light of his countenance. The solu tion for that awful condition is re vealed in v. 14. “Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ.” II. Drunkenness Is a Work of Un righteousness (I Cor. 6:9-11). No drunkard “shall inherit the kingdom of God” (v. 10), and the man who takes his first drink has put his foot on the path that leads to the drunkard’s grave. Of course no man plans to go that far, but the fact is that such is the tragic con clusion for hundreds of thousands of men and women—damned for time and eternity by drink. Again in this passage we have the answer to our problem. Not refor mation, not education, not culture (desirable and useful though we recognize these things to be), but being “washed,” “sanctified,” and “justified” in “the name of the Lord Jesus and in the Spirit of God.” Try that on your town drunkard. Thank God, it works! III. Drunkenness Is a Work of the Flesh (Gal. 5:16-24). The flesh—that is our bodies ruled over by self-will as opposed to God’s will—is revealed in the Scriptures to be thoroughly bad, and in opposi tion to God. Consider the appalling list of the works of the flesh in verses 19 and 20. And note that in the midst of them stands drunken ness. It is the lowest in man that re sponds to intoxicants. Little won der that the Brewers’ Journal came out right after the election of 1932 with the statement that “not one tenth of one-per cent of American youths know the taste of real beer. We must educate them.” In other words the normal taste of an in telligent person would revolt at the stuff, but once give it a chance to stir the lusts of “the flesh” and the victim is caught. Once again, note the antidote— live in the power of the Holy Spirit, and the flesh with its lusts is cruci fied (v. 24). How shall we have the Holy Spirit and his power in our lives? By taking the Lord Jesus Christ as personal Saviour. Words Without Action Few men suspect how much mere talk fritters away spiritual energy —that which should be spent in ac tion, spends itself in words.

A Trio of Triumphs T HE way to day-in, day-out chic for the woman who sews is shown in today’s attractive new three-way plan. It goes deeper than the surface, you see, in the presentation of a sleek new slip. Ah, and it gives great thought to the surface, as you can’t help but note in the two wing-side models. Spicy New Model. As shipshape as a Parisian streamline fashion and, in its own role, as important—that’s the lit tle number at the left above. It does wonders to give one that up and doing feeling that’s handy to have around the house in the morning. You can repeat it time and again without fear of being repetitious; without losing your fondness for it. Anything in gay cotton: shantung, print, ging ham, crash, will do nicely for this one. A Congenial Slip. 1 Beneath a well-groomed surface hangs a perfect fitting slip! That’s an old and honest notion and one Sew-Your-Own abides by re ligiously. Today’s five piece ver sion is as easy to put together as it is congenial to your comfort and outward superbness. Make two while you’re about it: one with a plain top for everyday, the other with a bit of frou-frou for dress- up occasions. Deft Design. The “girl in the little green hat” wears a dress with many tucks in this her latest picture. It is the dress for you, Milady, to star in at familiar Fall festivities. Deftly but definitely it gives you em phasis where you want it; soft pedals worry-areas. No more will ing and able frock than this was ever designed and it can be yours so easily. Thin wool is a smart material and it fits this frock’s personality to a T. Let’s sew and be seen places this Fall. Okay? The Patterns. Pattern 1389 is designed for sizes 36 to 52.

When yon are oonatipated two things hap pen. FIRST: Wastes swell up the bowels and press on nerves in the digestive tract.

Then you spend many miserable days. You can’t eat. You can’t sleep. Your stomach is sour. You feel tired out, grouchy and miser able. To get the complete relief you seek you must do TWO things. 1. You must relieve the G^l. 2. You must clear the bowels and GET TILLT PRESSURE OFF THE NERVES.
