Jacob Adju*t< Pcr^nnl Relation*
ships.
Lesson for August 26: Genesis 35:
bll. 17-20.
Memory Perse: Romans 14:19.
In the period following the time
of the narrative of the last lesson.
Jacob had spent 20 years in the
service of Laban, his father-in-law.
At length, because of friction be
tween himself and Laban, Jacob de
parted for Canaan with all, his
household and his flocks. Having
appeased the wrath of the pursuing
Laban, who turned back, Jacob
was disturbed to hear that Esau
was coming to meet him, with 400
men. •
He had reason to fear the brother'
whom he had wronged. But there
was nothing left but to stand and
meet the issue. Having arranged his
camp as wisely as he could, he went
forth to meet Esau. Doubtless he<
was utterly surprised and over*
Joye 1 when Esau ran to meet him,
embraced him, kissed him, and
wept
Esau here appears in a noble
light — also afterward when he in
sisted on not receiving the gift
which Jacob had made to him. But
Jacob insisted and the gift was
Anally accepted. The brothers sepa
rated the following day — Esau
returning to Mt Seir and Jacob'
moving on slowly toward Shechem.'
His personal relationships ad*
Justed, Jacob desired a permanent 1
hpme. He bought the parcel of
ground outside the city where bis
tent was pitched, and then upon his
efen soil built an altar unto God.;
But better than any permanent# i
he might have secured in his o'w
home was Jacob’s permanence -jv
desire to do God’s will. Since
wondrous wrestling at Peniel, jW.
cob was a changed man — i«.
deemed of God and forgiven by b*>
brother, he found permanence vfe,

The University of Southern Cali
fornia football squad has an unbe
lievable assembly of mammoth’
linemen ... all said to be fast
and quick on the turns, too. Big*
gest is Jay Perrin, at 310 pounds
playing weight ... then comes
John Seay, 290, and John Pehar,
ZB0. Leo Schlick weighs 240, and
Don Waddell, 220. The others
range around 200. The Trojans are
generally rated as first choice to
lead the Pacific coast conference.
V Bed Sox fans are urging
7 Manager Jae Cronin to shift
| Davei Ferriss from the mound
s to the outfield so that the clnb
jf ea« get the benefit of his heavy
t hitting more often. There is lit-
>' tie likelihood of this move, how*
r ever, as long as the big veteran
‘ continues to win so many
v games with his hurling. Mem*
! phis has tried 15 players at sec-
• ond base this season. Nashville,
* also of the Southern association,
had a team error record of .345
in midseason.
The Pittsburgh Pirates won the
pennant of 1902 by the widest mar
gin in history—27*4 games ahead
of the closest rival . . . the Yan
kees hold the American league rec-
oid with 19*4 games in 1936. Seattle
claims to be the yachting capital
of America, with 22,612 pleasure
boats registered. Byron Nelson
turned in a score of 269 for the 72-
hole All-American open golf
championship at Chicago, winning
by a margin of 11 strokes. . . .
It was 18 under par. This is the
fourth All-American victory for
Byron in five years.
Yearling racehorses at the
Keeneland sales, Lexington, Ky.,
sold for an average of $11,520 each.
Top price was $46,000, a new rec
ord. All small arms, excepting 12-
gauge shotguns and some models of
revolvers have been released for
sale to civilians by the War Pro
duction board. A 12-year-old boy has
caught the largest game fish of
the season at Ocean City, N. J. It
was an 89-pound Mako shark, a
species usually found no farther
north than Florida. The monster
battled for 45 minutes.
Mel Ott has entered a very ex
clusive club by beating out his
500th home run. Only Babe Ruth
and Jimmy Foxx have reached this
mark so far. Ruth’s total was 714.
Foxx recently banged out his 513th,
in what may be his last season. Ott
is playing in his 20th. Boxing is
the most popular sport at Keesler
Field, Miss., an air corps training
station. There are bouts every
Thursday night.

5 Good Country Tricks
for Saving More Used Fats
Notice For Bids For
Transportation Pupils
Sealed bids will be received un
til 12:00 o’clock noon, September

nuoils from the following school
districts:
Right now, the country is facing the worst fat shortage
since the war began. To help make up the deficit, the
government is depending on the women of America—and
particularly our women on farms and in smaller cities.
Every drop cf fat is needed to help make battlefield and
homefront essentials. So roll up your sleeves and do an
all-out job, won’t you? Clip this checklist as a reminder.
V. FRIES SALT PORK—with milk gravy. Salt pork yields
so much grease, you won’t need it all for gravy.
Pour the rest into the salvage can.
2. DEEP FAT FRYING—use the fat over and over, but
when it’s too dark and smelly to U8C any more,
don’t forget Uncle Sam wants it!
3.
P.OASTS AND CHOPS — save all trimmings (scraps
from the plates, too.) Keep them ia a small bowl;
once a week melt them down.
