ROBERT H HARPER f j Egypt's Part im f^otTs Plan. ^ Lesson for September 9: Genesis 4J .46-57. i Memory Selection: Psalms 111:5. * Having risen from slavery to a high place in Egypt, Joseph made jgood in the task Pharaoh had as signed him — the surplus of the crops produced during the years of plenty was stored for use in the lean years to come, which had been prediced by Joseph in the interpre tation of Pharaoh's dream. ( Thus, 3,000 years and more be fore our time, there was an eco nomic administrator in Egypt, with food control and strict regulation that nothing should be wasted and the people have the necessities of life in the years of famine ahead. This should be a lesson of value to nil. “Waste not, want not” has often proved a policy that served a man The time of plenty was also for Joseph a period of fortune and laappiness in his own affairs — he married a woman of high caste in ancient Egypt, a daughter of Poti- phera, priest of On, and she bore laim two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim, whose descendants more than 400 years later had part in ' the conquest and were assigned their lands by lot in the Land of Promise. Thus did ancient Egypt contrib ute to the working out of God's plan for the Hebrews and the hu man race — by making that land give something to the history of the xace through which he would re weal himself perfectly in the full ness of time. Further, in the refuge -which Egypt provided in the years of famine, and the home it gave the children of Jacob as they grew into m nation of people, the immemo rial land of the Nile had a great part in God's plan. * Conservation News 'TBy TV ij.

But for others of us—and, ironically ' * x . 4 enough, their p^rt in bringing victory was a major one—^the years to come must bear a dif- ferent look. In America today are hundreds of thousands of injured men. Men with neatly pinned up sleeves and trousers. Blinded men. Men with clever iron hooks instead of hands. Worst of all, y / men with hurt and darkened minds. | These men need our help. Helping them will cost a great deal of money. We can help them best by buying Victory Bonds, j Far away from America today are millions of Americans. As we would be, they’re on fire to get back—to their wives, to the children some of them have never seen, to their jobs. _ » These men need our help. Helping them will ». • cost a great deal of money. And we can help them best by buying Victory Bonds. This is our day of triumph. But it’s theirs too— the injured men, the men who are still far away. i Let’s not forget them, in our just rejoicing. And the one way we can help most to care for oui* wounded ... to bring our veterans home ... to give them a fresh start in the country they fought for ... to care for the families of those who died before the Victory was won ... is simply this: • . Buy all the Bonds you can. Keep all the Bonds you buy. J kA**r .• -* vi- -• -m- \ ./ • > AW. ,V ? ; wr- '4 • )! 5 •-•i- . vrvi, ' ’ : : . , ' A* ■ V- V ■<!' «A-y / -V •>.
