LUNDQUIST. D. D. Of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for January 11 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. THE INFANCY AND BOYHOOD OF JESUS LESSON TEXT—Luke 2:25-35, 39, 40. GOLDEN TEXT—Jesus Increased in wis dom and stature, and in favor with God and man.—Luke 2:52. "Nobody knows what a boy Is worth. And the world must wait to see; For every man in an honored place Is a boy that used to be.” Jesus was “only a boy” as He grew through infancy and chOdhood, but in that baby and that boy rest ed all the hopes of mankind. While He was not just like any other boy, yet His growth and development were normal, and we may learn much that will enable us to help the boy in our home, in our block, or in our church. The mother of Jesus, in fulfill ment of the law of her people, on the eighth day identified Him with the nation (Luke 2:21), and then at the end of 40 days brought Him, with her humble sacrifice, to pre sent Him to the Lord. There a beautiful and prophetic scene took place as the Holy Spirit revealed to godly old Simeon His I. Complete Salvation—in a Baby <w. 25-35). The Holy Spirit (not yet come as the indwelling presence in believers’ hearts) had come upon Simeon, a man right with God and with a deep longing in his heart for the coming of the Messiah—“the consolation of Israel.” He was assured of living until that day, and now as he waited in the temple the babe who fulfilled that promise was laid in his arms. He blessed God as he broke forth in praise and prophetic utterance. Note the full conception of the work of the Redeemer—deliverance from bondage and fear of death, light to the Gentiles and glory to Israel, a stone of stumbling but also of rising again. A revealer of the hearts of men—yes, and One whose sacrifi cial death would pierce the heart of His mother. One is glad that Simeon and Anna • (v. 36) and “them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem” saw in Mary’s infant son the Son of God incarnate, for round about was un belief (John 1:11), hatred (Matt. 2:16), and indifference (Matt. 2:4, 5). Is it not so today? Christmas has just been celebrated. How many saw the babe in the manger as Je sus the Saviour? The scene changes—the little fam ily is back in Nazareth in the hum ble home—and there we see II. Perfect Development in a Boy (vv. 39, 40). The period from infancy to ac countability (12 years) is summed up in the full-orbed growth of the boy Jesus described in verse 40. The one business of every child from birth to 12, or somewhere around there, until the period of ado lescence, is to grow without any sense of responsibility except obedi ence to authority; and obedience in the case of a child is always in or der to give the child perfect free dom from everything else, without any sense of responsibility. That is the story of Jesus: He grew!” (G. Campbell Morgan). Growth is, first of all, physical. Jesus stands by the side of every boy and girl as the body grows from babyhood to maturity, for He too knew that experience. We may talk to Him as an understanding friend about the physical needs and prob lems of our children. Let us re member that here, as elsewhere in Scripture, the physical body is rec ognized as important. Mentally, He experienced growth. The strange, apocryphal tales about the child Jesus, representing Him as a man of mature wisdom in a child’s body, do not compare even remote ly with the beautiful naturalness of a keen-minded boy asking questions, observing, always learning. Boys and girls, you may talk with confi dence to Him about your lessons, your growing interest in this excit ing world of ours, of your need for guidance in learning. Be sure that He will understand. The crowning touch upon the growing personality of the child is the spiritual. We read of Jesus that “the grace of God was upon him.” “Grace,” says Dr. Morgan, “is first, that which delights and charms. Grace, secondly, i? desire to impart to others the things that make them happy. Grace, finally, is the ac tivity that does this at all costs.” A gracious child is an altogether de lightful being; and when that gra ciousness is the result of the “grace of God” upon him, it is surpassingly lovely, for it makes him Christlike, even in the days of childhood. Great and grave has been the neglect of the spiritual life of chil dren for whom much has been done physically and mentally. Christian parents must not make tkat mistake —and they need not, for the Lord Jesus here too stands ready to coun sel, guide, encourage, and strength en them in every good purpose and deed. Defense Uniforms Can Be as Smart as They Are Practical By CHERIE NICHOLAS "VT OW that thousands of women ’ are engaged in defense service that takes them into factories and plants, or that keeps them busy on the farm, designers are confronted with a new challenge to create prac tical clothes that are primarily functional but are also chic and be coming. In this program of clothes that are able to resist wear and tear, the first problem to be considered is necessarily that of finding materials that will give satisfaction from the standpoint of wearability plus laun- derability. Since sturdy cottons can “take it,” they naturally are first in fabric choice. Denim holds forth at the top of the list in either solid col ors or stripes (often combined for contrast). Then come coverts, man nish tweed cotton suitings and that favorite of favorites—corduroy. White duck, which holds an en viable record for perfect laundering, is particularly smart for young girls who like snappy fashions and who are stationed in surroundings that demand they look immaculate. This fabric is suitable not only for over alls, but also for overseas caps, to keep straying locks from the eyes. To the left in the illustration above is a costume especially designed for American women at work in de fense industries, on farms, or in the air. This "civilian defense suit” is cut on a pattern of simplicity that any woman can make for herself, even if she is a novice at sewing. Note that this suit of washable white duck is one-piece. This gar ment has convertible trousers which may be worn full or snugged in to insure protection from possible en tanglement in machinery. Uniforms for women must have certain basic protective details such as those mentioned above, and they must also be designed for free dom of movement. They must be easy to take off and on, with straps caught at the back so that overalls will not slip off at the shoulders, with snap fasteners at the ankles for comfort and protection. Corduroy mix-mates give oppor tunity for bright color, style and service and all in one. They meet the farm girl’s needs to perfection, and they are equally as useful and smart in the factory. Not only is the never-wear-out quality of cordu roy a convincing argument in its favor, but corduroy has that some thing attractive about it that meas ures up to any wear required of it from work to play. It goes about town or trudges along country roads with equal adaptability. The attractiveness of corduroy is shown in the illustration above by the culotte ensemble centered in the group. In this instance, a bright plaid cotton shirt is teamed with a corduroy culotte and vest. Cordu roy shoes and cotton stockings com plete a perfect outfit for all sorts of active wear. In this smart, good- looking ensemble one can confident ly go about town on a shopping tour, feeling suitably dressed for the oc casion. Mixmate this vest of corduroy with slacks, shown to the right in the picture above, and you have a suit that gives the answer to a gay young farmerette as to “what to wear” about home during busy hours. Wear a corduroy beret with this suit if you must go into town on an er rand, or whatever the call of duty may happen to be. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Bright Wool What with all the glitter of sequin and spangle, it is a relief to turn to the lovely color-bright soft wool classics that fashion elects for style supremacy this winter. Undoubted ly these flattering little wools, fash ioned as they are with studied sim plicity, will be “stealing the show” during the weeks to come. These lovely classic wools make color their theme, and worn under win ter furs, they lead the first-in fashion group. Pictured is a charm ing model of Forstmann wool in a subtle green that goes beautifully with any fur. There is a restrained accent of sparkling gilt on the belt and front closing. Wear a flaring hat and carry a beaver muff. Dutch Bonnets and Hoods Have Peasant Embroidery A charming new fashion that is going the rounds this winter, to the delight of high school and college girls, is that of cunning little hoods or bonnets cut in the manner of Dutch bonnets or baby caps and made of bright felt. Or, if you pre fer, they can be gaily crocheted. These are adorned with appliques of felt flowers in peasant colorings or trimmed in crocheted flowers. They tie undef the chin, and they lend a most attractive dash of color to a wintry landscape. They’re perfect with skating outfits, or to wear to and from dances, or to school. Here’s the Latest Style: Dresses With Apron Front Here’s the latest bit of fashion gossip. It’s all about the dresses with cleverly designed apron fronts. This new fashion calls for a pencil- slim skirt, at the front of which there is a tie-on apron effect. Some times it is achieved with a cascade drape of material. Again it is a pleated tie-on that makes the apron. However, the cleverest of all, be cause it introduces the right print accent, is the applique of cut out floral prints. The effect is just about as charming as fancy can picture, especially if a corresponding touch of the print appears on the sleeves. Evening Capes Sparkle With Beads and Sequins Just as new as the coming New Year are the new evening capes, some long and some short, that are made of bright colored woolens handsomely and elaborately em broidered with sparkling stones or sequins or vivid yarns. A favorite color for these gay little capes is magenta. Jet beading on black or white wool also ranks high in chio.
