ROBERT H HARPER f Jesus* Friends Carry on His Work. * l.esson for June 30: Mark 16:15, 16, 19, 20: Luke 24:45-49; Acts 1:46, 47; ' 5:42. I Memory Selection: Mark 16:15. The training of the Twelve was coming to an end—they : were soon to enter upon the work of their Lord, without his blessed guidance, and Jesus was ' giving tuem his last commanus ] and exhortations. There was first the last com- : mand of the ascending Lord. The , disciples were bidden to ‘'preaca i the gospel to the whole cre- ' ation.” And after he has thus . spoken unto them and had been j received up into heaven, the ; disciples went forth and : preached everywhere, “the Lord working with them.” Earlier than this, when Jesus appeared unto the disciples at ■ Emmaus, and when he opened ’ to them the scriptures, he told ■ them that they were witnesses } of these things. And he said he | would sent them forth, “but tar- l ry ye in the city,” he said, < “until ye be clothed with power ' from on high.” ) Afterward, as they waited in •; the upper room in Jerusalem, 1 the power from on high did \ come upon them, and they, be- ; gan the gracious activity which J is recorded in the Acts of the J Apostles. “And the Lord added } to them day by day those that • were saved.” And see how the gospel ! spreads! Every day, at ail times, in the temple and in the house, “they ceased not to teach and to preach Jesus as the Christ.” This is greatly needed ”, today that they who find' Christ shall be his heralds unto others.

And remember this, no matter how carefully you or your mar- ketman may se lect your vege tables, careless handling after their arrival in the home will make them lose much of their suc culence. The largest fruits and vege tables are by n* means always the best unles* they are heavy in proportion t<* their size. A particularly larg* vegetable or fruit may be force-'* produce and lacking in flavor Here is where the fragrance of the fruit becomes a determining factor. Smell your fruits. A fra grant odor indicates a fresh, well flavored and sweet fruit. Good color means maturity and freshness in vegetables as well as fruits and of course the crisp ness of tops and leaves and hulls and stems is most essential for freshness. When you market for new beets look for those with green unwilted tops. The beets them selves should be smooth with one straight root and be of a dark red color. Beans should be smooth, of bright color, be it green or yellow and the pods long and brittle. A slender firm bean usually means a tender, string less cooked bean. - Berries of any kind should he clean, fragrant, firm and even’? colored. Cabbage this time of year : . never hard and white as wint'-. cabbage but it should be fir.s and crisp. Cherries should be large, •■•-r- fectly formed and not ovcr-’.\ Cucumbers are less lik» v : '- be seedy if they are not too ’• ^ c^. in diameter and are at least *'Vj■ thirds dark green in color.
