t REV. ROBERT H HARPER t
The Kingdom Strongly Established.
f.esson for September 17: 11 Samuel
2:17; 5:1.10.
Colden Text: Psalm 125:1.
It was tragic that, though Samuel
had anointed David and, following
the death of Samuel, the people of
Judah had made him their king,
years of civil jvar passed before
David became the ruler of all Is<
rael.
After twb years Ishbosheth, a son
of Saul, whom Abner had set up
over the northern tribes, offended
the man who had made him king
and Abner vowed he would turn
the people to David. Soon after
ward two conspirators went into the
house of the repudiated king and as
sassinated him. In due time Abner
made a league with David at Heb
ron. Hearing.of this, Joab went aft
er Abner and slew him—to avenge
his brother Asahel and perhaps to
remove a dangerous rival. At the
close of this turbulent period of sev
en years and six months, the north
ern tribes came to Hebron and
made David king over all IsraeL
David soon strengthened himself
and the kingdom by gaining a
strong capital—Jerusalem. This an
cient stronghold of the Jebusites
had never been completely occu
pied by the Israelites. David, with
nearly 300,000 men, quickly pos
sessed the city and began the work
of extending its walls and of
strengthening its defenses. Tidings
of the capture of the city traveled
far—Hiram, king of Tyre, hearing
of it, sent workmen to build David
a great palace of cedar. Thus be-'
'gan a friendship between the. king
of Tyre and the house of David
Which extended into the reign of
Solomon.
Ancient Salem, city of Melchize-
dek, may have been Jerusalem; we
cannot tell. Already existing in the
days of the conquest, Jerusalem,
apart from its religious significance, -
has had a long and interesting his
tory. The words of the Golden Text
indicate the strength of the city.

expected to save more than a mil
lion dollars annually as the result
of a broad campaign against up
grading of butter now being waged
by the Office of Price Adminis
tration.
The savings are expected to re
sult in various decreases in retail
prices of creamery butter. OPA
explained that almost all cream
ery butter sales in the Southeast
since wartime shortages developed
has been sold at top-grade or
“pemium”. prices. Such quantity
of top-grade creamery butter sim
ply does not exist, OPA asserted
in saying that investigators are
checking all creamery butter sold
throughout the United States and
bringing prices within the proper
grade.
The action does not affect
“country” butter generally sold
ungraded, OPA said.

To effect unfavorable weather
conditions, the Office of Price Ad
ministration has allowed Irish po
tato growers in a group of States
including Tennessee, Georgia,
North and South Carolina and Vir
ginia an increase for the peroid of
Sept. 1-Sept. 16 of 90 cents per
hundred pounds over originally
established shipping point ceiling
prices for the month of Septem
ber.
From September 17 through

Removal of several processed
foods from rationing September
17 does not mean that these items
will be removed from price con
trol, E. H. Talbert, district direct
or of the Office of Price Adminis
tration, said today.
Maximum price regulations af
fect all the items to be removed
from rationing and are not likely
to be lifted soon, he emphasized.
Processed foods to be removed
from rationing include jams and
jellies, fruit butters and the fol
lowing canned vegetables and re
lated products: asparagus, fresh
lima beans, corn, peas, pumpkin
or squash, mixed vegetables, baked
beans, tomato sauce, tomato paste
or puree, soups and baby foods.
Commenting on the action Dis
trict OPA Director Talbert said:
“The decision to take these foods
off rationing was a decision of the
War Food Administration which
has the responsibility of determin
ing when there are adequate sup
plies of food to allow removal from
rationing. The action has been
taken quickly and there may be
some inconvenience to the trade
and the consumer at first but we
are doing everything we can to
see that this move is put into ef
fect in as orderly a manner as
possible.”
ber 15, E. H. Talbert, district OPA
director, said today.
Oil and gas stoves, however, v;i?I
continue to be rationed.
Local War Price and Rationing
Boards will continue to issue ra
tioning certificates to eligible ap
plicants until that date, but quota
restriction will be removed imme
diately. Dealers and distributors
may continue to use certificates
with orders placed up until No
vember 1.
OPA said civilian supplies of the
specified types of stoves are now
ample enough to allow lifting of
rationing restrictions.
Coal and wood heating and
cooking stoves will be removed
from rationing to consumers Octo-
Period 4 and 5 Fuel Oil Coupons
which were scheduled to expire
September 30 will remain valid
throughout the coming heating
year, E. H. Talbert, OPA district
director, announced.
Period 1 coupons for next season
are now valid also.
Mr. Talbert urged ration holders
to fill their fuel oil tanks at once
in order to relieve a national
shortage of oil storage space and
to make sure they will have oil
when cold weather begins. The Ra
tion Calendar is to be corrected
accordingly, said Mr. Talbert.
