Ducky A certain rather exclusive club had replaced its familiar black- coated staff with young and, in some cases, pretty waitresses. One day a member who had been strongly opposed to the change arrived at the club for lunch. “How’s the chicken?” he asked an attractive waitress rather gruffly. “Oh, I’m fine,” she replied perkily. “And how’s the old pel ican himself feeling?” Magistrate (to talkative prison er)—Will yon stop talking and al low me to get in a short sentence? YEAH! Ogdon—Culbert says there’s an awful lot of girls stuck on him. Harefoot—They must be an aw ful lot. Paltry Offer He was the club bore and heart ily detested. Hushing into the sec retary’s room and fuming with rage, he shouted: “I have just been offered $50 to resign from the club. What shall I do?” The secretary was quite calm and replied, “Hold on a bit. You’ll get a better offer.” Even a pretty girl may have a sour disposition, says a psychol ogist. A peach with a lemon fla vor? Improving the Time Plumber—Well, here I am at last. Sorry I’ve been so long. Householder (three feet deep in water)—Oh, that’s all right. While we’ve been waiting for you I’ve taught my wife to swim.

Now working with Katherine Hep- bum in “Bringing Up Baby,*' he is all set to rush from that to “Love on Parole/* with Miriam Hopkins, after which he will support Ruby Keeler in her first R. K. O. picture. Columbia pictures hold a contract with him also, and will have sev eral stories ready for him just as soon as he finishes his stint on the R.K.O. lot. And somehow or other, Cary expects to find time to play one of the leads in Sam Goldwyn’s pro duction of the ever- popular romance, “Graustark.” If you heard him on the air recently with Irene Dunne, giving ex cerpts from “The Awful Truth,” which theaters will be showing soon, you don’t need to be told that it is a thoroughly delightful picture. Cary Grant Practically all of the motion-pic ture companies have decided that comics in sets of three bring sure success. R.K.O. has the Marx broth ers now, Twentieth Century-Fox have the Ritz brothers with their hilarious antics, and Paramount has signed up the Yacht Club boys to appear in three more pictures for them. Hollywood producers wish that plump girls were fashionable. In sistence on streamlined figures causes them no end of worry. Many of the stars noted for their beauty and chic have to live on strict diets in order to stay slim, and when they are working on a strenuous sched ule they get so run down that they have no resistance to colds. Re cently on the ailing list were Carole Lombard, Alice Faye, Joan Craw ford, Virginia Bruce, Simone Simon, and Zorina, the lovely Russian danc er who is soon to make her debut in Goldwyn pictures. Bing Crosby, who always insists that he doesn’t know anything about music, or about anything, in fact, but race horses, received an hono rary degree from Gonzaga college in Spokane, Wash. He was a stu dent there before he joined Paul Whiteman's rhythm boys and got launched on a radio career. Inci dentally, Bing gets so much fun out of his radio appearances that he would like to be on the air more than once a week. Radio and picture stars have their favorite performers, just like the rest of us. Rudy Vallee insists on having Jack Oakie in the picture he will make for Warner Brothers soon. He says Oakie* makes any picture a success. Jack Benny would like to have Abe Lyman on his radio pro gram permanently—thinks he adds a lot of laughs. Beverly Davis, the four-year-old daughter of Joan Davis, that mad cap dancer who risks breaking her neck in the Ritz Brothers pictures, gives imitations of her mama when she goes to parties. At a kiddies party she was not going over so well, because instead of laughing at her falls, the youngsters howled in fright, but everything turned out all right anyway. Along came a Twen tieth Century-Fox official to call for his youngsters, and he hired little Beverly to play a part. Closest friends of Douglas Fair banks, Jr., thought that his great success as an actor in “The Prisoner of Zenda” had cured him of all ambitions to be a producer in England. Douglas says they are wrong. As soon as he fin ishes playing oppo site Ginger Rogers in “Having a Won derful Time,” he will be off to London again to be the big boss of a production company. In the fu ture he will spend six months of each year in Hollywood working as an actor, the other six in London producing pictures.

HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, Dean oi the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. C Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for November 14 THE CHRISTIAN MINISTER LESSON TEXT—I Timothy 4:6-16; II Timothy 2:1-4. GOLDEN TEXT—Neglect not the gift that Is In thee.—I Timothy 4:14. PRIMARY TOPIC—Two Brave Preach ers. JUNIOR TOPIC—Two Brave Preachers. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— Why and How Ministers Are Trained. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— The Christian Minister in the Modern World. “The Christian Minister”—there is no greater calling among men, but none is more often the target for misrepresentation and abuse by those outside, and all too often the victim of the carelessness, weakness,, and sin of those within its own cir cle. On the other hand it has had, and continues to have to this day, within its ranks such a noble army of faithful and sacrificial men as would probably be impossible to du plicate in any other calling. The study of today’s lesson should arouse in the hearts of Christian people a high regard for the minis try as a calling, and a kindly pur pose to aid their minister to live up to its glorious possibilities. Every true minister who studies it will find his spirit humbled before God in thanksgiving for the privilege of service, and in prayer that he may be forgiven for his failures and em powered for the work of the future. The need for such a study is indi cated in the verses just preceding our lesson, namely, I Timothy 4:1-5, where we read of the express warn ing of the Spirit of God that in the latter times there should be teach ing and preaching which departed from the faith, substituting men’s wisdom for God’s Word. One who looks around him cannot but feel that we have fallen upon that evil day. I. What to Preach (I Tim. 4:6-9). The “good minister of Jesus Christ” preaches the words of God. To do this he must himself be “nourished” by them. Spare your preacher the necessity of running errands, serving on boards and committees, and encourage him to study his Bible. Preacher, are you studying God’s Book, learning and teaching “good doctrine”? If so you will have no interest in or time for “profane and old wives fables.” H. How to Preach (I Tim. 4:10- 12). I. Sacrificially (v. 10). The man who regards the ministry as a nice, easy, respectable occupation is not in the same calling as was the apos tle Paul. In fact, there is nothing to indicate that he is in the Chris tian ministry at all, for in that call ing there is labor and suffering of reproach. This is not something to be borne in a spirit of resigned sub mission. The minister knows and “trusts in the living God,” and gladly bears every responsibility with which God may entrust him. 2. Authoritatively (v. 11). The minister of Christ speaks for God. In doing so he teaches with assur ance and is to “command” men in the Lord’s name. All too often the servants of the Lord feel and act like “grasshoppers” (see Numbers 13:33), and everybody else regards them as feeble and impotent, when they should be “strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus” (H Tim. 2:1). 3. Actively (v. 12). Whether young or old, the minister is to be an ex ample, a pattern in his active daily life. Note how discriminating is the scripture. He is to be a pattern for others in speech, manner of living, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity of life. HI. Who Is to Preach (I Tim. 4:13-16). 1. The man who is divinely called (v. 14). God called Timothy; men recognized that call and ordained him to give his life to the exercise of his God-presented gift. This is the right order for our day. 2. The man who is properly pre pared (w. 13, 15-16). The ministry calls for the best preparation that a man can possibly obtain. He must know how to read God’s Word, both publicly and privately. He is to be skilled in exhortation, and in teach ing Christian doctrine. In conclusion, let us consider the portion from II Timothy 2 which properly presents the work of the minister as that of a soldier at war against the world, the flesh, and the devil. He must be prepared to bear hardness, and he must not yield to the temptation to get into “side lines,” no matter how dignified and profitable they may be. His sole business is to serve and to please God.* What Education Means The real object of education is to give children resources that will en dure as long as life endures; habits that time will ameliorate, not de stroy; occupation that will render sickness tolerable, solitude pleas ant, age venerable, life more dig nified and useful, and death less ter- rible.—Sydney Smith.

Home Heating lllffltc ** Barclay mil 15 Moating Export T MPROPER adjustment of the * turn (or smoke pipe) damper in your furnace results in “chim ney” loss of heat. Leave this damper closed as nearly as pos sible without retarding free burn ing of fuel or causing gas to es cape into the basement. Once you have found the ideal adjustment for it, be sure you leave it in that position through out the heating season. Do not attempt to use it from day to day to regulate your fire. It was nev er meant for that purpose. The only time you need move the Turn Damper is at the start of the very cold season and again at the start of the very mild season. These two times are necessary to meet the extreme changes in outdoor temperature. Use only the Ashpit Damper and Check Damper for regulating the fire daily—to speed up or slow down the rate at which you want the fire to burn. Rely wholly on these two dampers, and you’ll get the proper fire regulation. I re peat—do not change the position of the Turn Damper inside the smoke pipe. Otherwise you’ll waste a lot of very valuable fuel and heat. ME STAY HOME FROM WORK?
