Members of the Greater New York
Safety council, when they met re
cently, found out what the safe
worker of 1939 will wear. Miss Sam
my Cunningham demonstrates alu
minum toe guards, fiber shin
guards, an eye shield of non-inflam
mable plastercel and a respirator.
She holds a safety belt with red
reflectors.
Swing music has at last made its influence felt in the field of safety
education. Cleveland, Ohio, police erected this sign addressed to motor
ists and pedestrians in the center of the street at public square. Pedes
trians, however, are not expected to shag across the intersections.

Massive, friendly and famous are Cady, left, and Breuhl, the huge St. Bernard dogs who dwell at Timber-
Jtae lodge on Monnt Hood. The dogs are hitched to a toboggan at the mile-hifh Oregon resort. In the back
ground is Mount Hood’s two-mile peak. Lady and Breuhl gained national fame Mast summer when they ac
companied climbers to the mountain summit. Lady made the descent alone, but Breuhl lost his nerve. A
special rescue expedition was sent after him, and only through a long struggle was he saved.

Mrs. Louella Brookbank of Daytcn, Ohio, who will celebrate her fourteenth birthday anniversary in April,
is pictured with her young son, who was born in March. Her husband, Merrill Brookbank, is 16. The child
weighed four pounds, 8l£ ounces when it was born. Needless to say, the father is very proud!
Among attractions at New York’s World fair opening April 30
will be Jimmie Lynch, who flirts with cars, tires and fate to thrill
thousands of motorists who go home thankful they can drive safely.
From new year’s to new year’s Jimmie roars up ramps into thrills
like that above, cheating injury with a firm grip on the steering
wheel.
Left: Jimmie and his son
(right), a 19-year-old daredevil.
Above two action photos illustrate one of Jimmie?s favorite tricks.
Catapulting off a ramp, the running board bites the ground. ThrUled
throngs gasp with one voice but timing and iron nerve bring Jimmie
safely back to earth while the timid souls watch pop-eyed. He’s been
doing such tricks ever since the World war, where he rode a motor
cycle in equally tricky fashion.

PAUL ESTABLISHES CHURCHES
LESSON TEXT—Act* M:l-7, 19-23. I
GOLDEN TEXT—According to the grace
of God which i* given unto me, as a wise
xnasterbuilder, I have laid the foundation*
and another buildeth thereon. But let every
man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
—I Corinthians 3:10.
“Onward, Christian soldiers,”
says the well-known hymn, thus ex
pressing the truth that Christianity
is engaged in a relentless warfare
against the world, the flesh, and
the devil. Those who conceive of
their relationship to the church as
a convenient and comfortable so
cial arrangement, with a bit of
spiritual flavor but no responsibility,
have none of the Spirit of Christ,
or of His bondservant Paul, whose
life we are now studying. Phillips
Brooks was right when he said, “If
Christian faith does not culminate
in the effort to make Christ known
to all the world, that faith appears
to me to be a thoroughly unreal and
insignificant thing, destitute of pow
er, and incapable of being convinc
ingly proved to be true.”
The constraining love of Christ
sent Paul and his co-workers press
ing on from Cyprus to Antioch in
Pisidia, to Iconium, to Lystra, and
to Derbe. Joy and sorrow, fellow
ship and hatred came and went,
but the witness for Christ went on.
Our lesson can best be considered
as a study in contrasts.
I. Belief and Unbelief (w. I, 2).
“Multitudes both of the Jews and
. . . Greeks believed.” What joy
that must have brought to the
preacher. “Unbelieving Jews” and
Gentiles with "minds evil affected”
—how sad such a result made
Paul’s heart. The same division
prevails today. There are only two
kinds of people in the world, dhe
believer and the unbeliever.
n. Popularity and Persecution
(v. 4).
“The multitude was divided,”
Paul knew all about that, so does
every faithful teacher and preacher
of the gospel. Paul and Barnabas
were thus made ready for the ex
perience which they were to have
at Lystra where the healing of the
crippled man first brought them
worship as gods, and then bitter
persecution. Few temptations are
more appealing to the Christian
worker than popularity, and possi
bly none is more treacherous. Let
us labor to please God, not men,
and when men give us false acclaim
let us like Paul urge them to “turn
from these vanities to the living
God” (v. 15).
in. Boldness and Caution (w.
3, 5, 6).
The persecution at Iconium only
made the messengers bold in their
purpose to stay on (v. 3), giving
testimony to God’s grace. The
Christian worker need not be afraid
of the devices of evil men so long
as God leads him to stand his
ground. Christian testimony calls
for courage! But wait, in verses 5
and 6 we find the preachers fleeing
to another city. Is their courage
gone? No. They are exercising
God-given judgment and caution.
“Sometimes it is needful to fling
away your life for Jesus; but if it
can be preserved without shirking
duty it is better to flee than to
die ... A voluntary martyr is a
suicide . . . Heroic prudence should
ever accompany a trustful daring,
and both are best learned in com
munion with Jesus” (Alexander
Maclaren).
IV. Death and Life (w. 19, 20).
The persecution at Lystra culmi
nated in the stoning of Paul and his
being left for dead. Some believe
that he really died and had the
glorious experience recorded in U
Corinthians 12:2-5 before he was
raised by God from the dead. Be
that as it may, God miraculously
brought the dead or apparently
dead man to full life and vigor, and
on he went to the city of Derbe.
Those of us who belong to Christ
and serve Him should recognize
that our very Jives are in His
blessed hand. Our purpose should
be to glorify Him, whether by life
or by death.
V. Advance and Return (w. 21-
23).
The work of God is not completed
by the pioneering forward thrust
into the strongholds of Satan. That
work is necessary, and just now
men are desperately needed to do
such work in heathen lands. Wom
en shame the men by their willing
ness to go where missionary boards
can only send men, who are all too
often lacking.
On the other hand, there is no
more important work than that of
confirming and establishing new
Christians in their faith. Paul and
Barnabas were not making a re
treat. They were courageously re
turning to the stoning and the
hatred of the cities they had
served in order to give counsel and
encouragement to the believers.
Note that they ordained elders, evi
dently consummating some form of
church organization. Sometimes
one becomes so tired of intricate
church machinery that the tendency
is to wish there were none at all, but
here again we need to be balanced
in our thinking and acting.

Pattern 1947
Being personal is the distinctive
th^pg with linens and personal ac
cessories today. These alphabets,
mainly in lazy-daisy stitch, are
most effective in black or green
and a color or in two shades of a
color. You’ll want to put them on
everything! They’re so quickly
embroidered even that youngster
of twelve would enjoy doing them.
Pattern 1947 contains a transfer

1%-inch alphabets; directions for
placing initials; illustrations of
stitches.
