God’s Exceeding: Great Prom-
wes.
Lesson for June 13: II Peter 1:
1-11.
Golden Text: II Peter 1:4.
Peter writes, they who have such
things will not be idle nor un
fruitful, while they who lack
them will be spiritually blind.
Therefore the apostle ad
monishes his brethren to make
“their calling zpid election sure,”
that they may never stumble, but
have an abundant entrance into
the eternal kingdom. And the
readers are urged to set before
themselves t* * r ’br* progres
sion of whict. i etei writes.

More Money Into Bonds
The average American Tamily
“should and must” be investing
25 per cent of its income in war
bonds by the end of 1943, Secre
tary of the Treasury Henry Mor-
genthau, Jr., said recently in an
nouncing a new “streamlined”
In the preceding lesson Peter bond campaign. “Of the 45 billion
was found comforting persecuted
Christians. In the present lessor,
nothing is said about wicked op
ponents—the energies of the soul
kirk only in. the background as
the apostle writes of God’s ex
ceeding great promises whereby
those who have escaped from tho
fast of the world may partake of
the divine nature.
Christians, “having obtained a
like precious faith” in the right
eousness fef God and the Saviour,
are urged to go jm to all good
things through Christ. Growth
is seen in all living things, and
growth is expected in the experi-
«Bees and character of ’ the
Christian.
So in verses 5-7 Peter gives an
«ocellent Christian progression
which is swifter than compound
interest and which concerns
Jhings that moth and rust "do
not corrupt. Diligence, faith, vir-'
tue, knowledge, self-control, pa
tience, godliness, brotherly kind
ness, love—these form a logical
chain of things necessary to
Christian growth. Surely, as
the ceiling.
Ice Boxes For Civilians
A total of 239,575 ice boxes are
to be produced in the next three
months for civilian use, accord
ing to the new order of WPB.
Despite- limited factory capacities
and scarcity of materials, the
production rate is expected to
reach about 75,000 units a month.
How To Get Farm Supplies
Ar^rdihg to a new , WPB
priv ily regulation a dealer must
urnish farm supplies if a farmer
signs a certificate stating . .
“I certify to the War Production
Board that I am a farmer and
that the supplies covered by this
order are needed now and will
be used for the operation of a
farm.” A total of 140 items are
affected by this order. Such
certification will enable the farm
er to buy up to $25 worth of any
of the items on the list, and more
if the certificate is approved bv
his Local County Farm Rationing
Committee.

Milk Added to Ration List
Evaporated and condensed milk
are now on the list of rationed
foods with a value of one point
per pound.
Red stamps in War Ration
Book Two will be used for buying
canned milk and no additional
points will be made available to
consumers for such purchases.
The rationing is intended to con
serve limited supplies for infant
feeding, special diets, and for
persons unable to obtain adequate
'applies of fresh milk.
No More Wheat For Feed
Sales of wheat for feed have
oeen discontinued by the Commod
ity Credit Corporation. However,
farmers may still obtain some
"eed wheat through dealers and
county AAA committees to whom
shipments have already been
made. Additional orders will not
>e accepted by the Corporation
unless the State U. S. Department
'f Agriculture War Board deter
mines that the wheat is needed
to feed livestock during June.
Adjust AAA Crop Payments
Farmers who fail to plant 99
oer cent of their war crop goals
will not suffer the regular agri-
cutural conservation deductions
if the weather has interfered
with their crop plans. The War
Food Administration has relaxed
the provisions in all areas where
hay and pasture goals have been
established. The action is de
signed to offset the effect of re
cent unfavorable weather con
ditions.
Lumber Production Good
Lumber production in the U-
nited States for the first quarter
of 1943 is estimated at 7,141,109,-
000 board feet. This is close to
the first-quarter goal needed to
meet military and essential civili
an requirements of 32 billion
board feet for 1943, , says the
WPB’s I,umber and Lumber Prod
ucts Division.
Typewriter Renters
Persons renting class A type
writers (standard size machines
made since 1934) will be given
until June 30 either to purchase
the machines or to return them
to their owners, the OPA has an
nounced.
Bikes For The East
In South Carolina, bicycles are
now being issued without quota
restrictions. Bicycles are rationed
to anyone gainfully employed in
any occupation or doing work
necessary to the war program or
public welfare. Children are also
eligible if they need a bicycle
for transportation to and from
school.
Report Shows Traffic Drop
Throughout the Nation, 479 au
tomatic counters on rural roads
in 39 states recorded traffic in
April as 56 per cent of pre-war
normal. Motor-fuel tax collections
in 28 states in April totaled $38,-
209,000 and were three-fourths of
Motor-Vehicle
Detroit, Mich., June 3.—In
creased war demands for anti
freeze chemicals, necessitating
government regulations prohibit
ing the sale of “ethylene-glycol”
type commonly known as “per
manent” anti-freeze for ordinary
use, are cited by Ed Hedner,
Chevrolet national director of ser
vice, as an urgent reason why
car and truck users should take
special pains to conserve this
fluid. *
In line with their Victory' Ser
vice League pledge to “Save the - ;
Wheels that Serve America,”
Chevrolet dealers are cooperating
fully with car and truck owners
in conserving anti-freeze solu
tions, not only to save critical
chemicals but also to assure fu
ture cold weather operation of
motor .vehicles.
By means of special factory-
approved tests and inspections;
dealers are able to determine,
accurately whether or not the
solution is worth draining and
saving for future use. If the
solution is to be left in the cool
ing system during the summer
months, dealers recommend that.'
the system be cleaned and re**;
verse flushed; that air passages
in the radiator core be free of
obstruction; that hose connec
tions and water pump be in
spected for possible leaks; that
the fan belt be examined for
wear and that cylinder head bolts
be tightened to prevent seepage
of gases into the coolant, result
ing in an acid condition that
would accelerate rust and corro
sion.
Owners having a suitable place
in which to store anti-freeze re
moved from their vehicles are ad
vised to keep it in glass or earth
enware containers.
