HARPER f J: Jesus Uses His Power to Help! — Lesson for January 30: Mark 4: 35—5:43. Golden Text: Mark 4:40. More than in the lesson of Jan uary 9, we now see Jesus using His power to help—showing His mas- ter-v over nature and death itself. Tbward evening of the day stud ied last'Sunday, Jesus departed in the ship from which He had taught, for the eastern shore. One of the sudden storms that occur on Galilee alarmed the disciples. Ulien Jesus had calmed the raging waters, the disciples said. “What manr>pr of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?” On the eastern shore a steep afope runs down to the deepest part of Galilee — doubtless the 2,000 swine ran down that slope fito 160 feet of water. This loss pork led to an ugly eruption of greeds— fearing other losses, the people besought Jesus to depart. It is not strange that traders in the vices of men onnose efforts to make men better. But one man is worth infinitely more tnan an material things. Jesus never lost a moment.- On Hie way to one good deed. He did another. His asking who touched JEm leads us to know that He would have men express their rr»tftude to Him and confess Him before men. In the home of Jairus, as a- mong the Gardarenes, cruel sei- fishness was manifested. The hired mourners laughed Jesus to They did not welcome a tlon of that which might « .i pioyment of weeping for r»av t^ut, futile scorn and ft™ th *wssed away in the presence of Him who took the cin.u L-y tne nand and said, “A- rtee.” May our faith in the Mighty One who calmed the sea and de stroyed death be increased as we read again of these instances in Which He used His power to help ram in their needs. , —X 1— De La Howe Wins Doubleheader From Calhoun Falls And Connie Maxwell The girls’ and boys’ teams from De la Howe tourneyed over to Cal houn Falls Friday night, January Ifth, for basket.ball games with foams from the high school there.

Tbe next De la Howe home games will be with Abbeville in Hie De la Howe gymnasium at 8 o'clock on Friday evening, Janu- axy 28. It is hoped that a large crowd from McCormick will come out tor the games. Pin-up picture for the man who "can’t afford t6 buy an extra war bond... Y OU’VE HEARD PEOPLE say: “I can’t afford to buy an extra War ^4 Bond.” Perhaps you’ve said it your self ... without realizing what a ridic ulous thing it is to say to men who are dying. i The very least that you can do is to buy an extra $100 War Bond... above and beyond the Bonds you are now buying or had planned to buy. In fact, if you take stock of your resources. you will probably find that you can \ buy an extra $200 ... or $300 ... or f even $500 worth of War Bonds. Sounds like more than you “can afford”? Well, young soldiers can’t afford to die, either . . . yet they do it when called upon. So is it too much to ask of us that we invest more of our money in War Bonds .. . the best investment in the world today? Is that too much to ask?, Id#AM. BACK THE ATTACK!
