The Ground of Universal Joy.
Lesson for Dec. 24: Luke 2:8-12;
Hebrews l:}-4; 1 John 1:1-4. j
Golden Text: Luke 2:10.
The ground of universal joy is the
salvation Jesus makes possible to
all. The herald angel brought tid
ings of “great joy” to the shep
herds, because of Christ’s birth, di
rected them to find Him in the man
ger in Bethlehem, and said the joy
should be “to all people.” The
shepherds were honored indeed,
but were only a part of the vast
host for whom Jesus came. And
we should feel the responsiblity of
sharing Him with others.
In Hebrews we learn of the glory
of Christ as the final and perfect
manifestation of God—a glory far
surpassing that of the prophets
and angels through whom God
had spoken in time past. And ’tis
joy enough to Christians to share
in the glory of their Lord.
From I John comes assurance cf
the joy which believers have in
their knowledge of abiding reality,
their fellowship one with another,
and with the Father and the Son.
John’s expressed purpose in writ
ing of such things is “that our joy
may be made full.” No joy can
equal that of the consciousness of
good life which shall endless be
This is the joy of those who
receive the tidings of Christ intc
their hearts.
The gospel — the good news —
should bring abiding joy. Cultivat#
the art of being happy, cheerful
content, through your faith am*
your service. Speeding the tiding.*
of great joy to men. you will con
firm and augment the joy of youi
own salvation. And this latest Yule-
tide may your faith be strengthened
and your good deeds multiplied,
that you may have a joyous Christ
mas and a happy New Year.

There’S a crisis in the making!
If stocks pile up in fertiliser plants and agents* ware
houses, the stream of supply will choke up. They must
move fast or the lack of man - p6wef will cause a para
lyzing shortage.
Take the Chilean Nitrate situation for example. To
supply the quantity needed for 1C45 crops, many car
goes must be unloaded each month at each port, then
moved out by train and truck for immediate allocation;
It must move out of agents* hands as fast as it moves
in. If not, the choke-up starts and works back to the
ports, even back to the ships.
Already there’s a threatened shortage of nitrogen,
due to sharply increased war needs. Unless you help
smash the bottle-neck by
taking your nitrate as soon
as it is offered, the shortage
will become acute. Thous
ands of tons will pile up at
U.S. ports or on the docks
in Chile. The only place Chil
ean Nitrate dees you any
good is on your crops. Get
yours now . . . while you
can.
Storage Tips
Pila nli materials on dry
boards in barn or s!:ed.
Pile nicterials reperetdy.
Keeppiies dose together.
