First of all, don’t do unnecessary traveling just now—and, when you do travel, go on a mid-week day if possible. That’s the way to make each bus seat work full time. You’ll save seat-space for men in uniform (there’s a reduced rate for them now!) and for war workers on week-ends—often the only time they can travel. Get information and tickets well in advance, too—and avoid delay at departure time. And by all means buy War Stamps and Bonds with the money you save on Greyhound trips! „ the WAX EEfOXI WITH GREYHOUND Strom’s Cut-Rate Drug Store Phone 95, McCormick, S. C.

How sad it was that they who partook with Jesus of the first great Supper found their circle marred by the prophecy of the Lord’s betrayal by one of the twelve, and then by the conten tion as to which should be great est among them. Jesus improved the occasion to enforce with fitting illustration, the nature of true greatness, even is in the preceding lesson. The reward of the disciples would not fail, they would be appointed a kingdom. The appaling nature of some of the earthly kingdoms of the present time would at once lead us to believe that the king dom committed to the disciples is not of this earth. “With deeds of love and mercy the heavenly kingdom comes.” May the Sacrament in which we engage today be a feast of love, unmarred by worldly L houghts, and may our churches be the bases for the extension of a kingdom which grows by faith in Him who suffered for his people and which is distinguished by a glory which shall never pass away—the glory of those who serve.
