THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY. S. C, By VIRGINIA VALE ■•leased by Western Newspaper Union. W ELL, you never know when something you’ve bought may come in handy, es pecially in a motion picture studio. Paramount bought two rooms from the Hearst Collec- tion when it was put on sale in Mew York, consisting of carved —fc paneling of the 17th cen- tury, originally part of European castles. So—they were used as sets in "The Hitler Gang." They’re the ■ring room and library of the Nazi fadustrial magnate, Alfred Hugen- berg, in the picture; Hitler comes to him seeking financial support. * The cast of NBC’s “Johnny Pre sents” has been having a bit of fun with Ginny Simms, we hear, since ■he has become mayor of North- GINNY SIMMS ndge, Calif., where she has a 63- aoe ranch. No more calling her Hjess Simms or just Ginny—she’s “Tour Honor” now. * Warner Bros, is certainly trying to do right by Mark Twain.

Deafening noise was created on Teu Pop in a war plant the night Verks J ohnson demonstrated the new army lip microphone, which permits distinguishable speech over disturbances. Later a worker who handled the rivet guns was heard tafeing to his wife over a pay sta- tion phone. "Did you hear that noise on the air?” he asked her.

It’s a good idea to let small fry take hold of the kitchen duties once in a while and give mother a rest. The children will enjoy doing new things and mother can feel she is contribut ing to their all round develop ment. Naturally it isn’t a good idea just to open wide the doors in the kitchen and leave the children up to their own designs. What I’m suggesting is that they be allowed to make up something they’ve watched mother do so often they know how. There’s a lot of satisfaction in making cupcakes, especially if they are iced with tinted icings and sprin kled with finely chopped nuts. *Delicate Cup Cakes.

Kinds least obtain able will be limburger cream, roquefort and Italian. About 5 million more pounds of cheese are going to servicemen to help pro vide milk nutrients needed by armed forces.

Of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. Released by Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for April 23 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International CouncO of Religious Education; used by permission. PAUL BECOMES A MISSIONARY LESSON TEXT: Acte 13:1-4; 14:3-20. GOLDEN TEXT: The Holy Spirit eaid. Separate me Barnabai and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.—Acte 13:2. Men are God’s instruments for ac complishing His purpose in spread ing the gospel message. They must, for such a high and holy calling, be men called and prepared by Him, faithful to Him, and willing to sac rifice all for His glory. Paul is a great example of such a life. He was— l. Separated by the Church (13: 1-3). God was about to begin the great missionary enterprise, which opened with the journeys of Paul and con tinues to this day. The church at Antioch had capable men in its membership, and the Holy Spirit called for the separation of two of these, Paul and Barnabas, for a special work. A number of interesting things emerge here. It is good to note that the church had men trained and ready for service. Do we? Observe that the Holy Spirit worked through the church. There are those who do not speak too high ly of the place of the church in this matter. Certainly it is true that if the church has lost its vision and message, God may call men even outside of its membership. But the orderly way—and God’s way, if the church is ready—is to have the church separate men for service. The church at Antioch gave its best, without question and without hesitation. It is an example worthy of our emulation. H. Sent by the Holy Spirit (13:4). There is a sense in which the Holy Spirit functions as the executive member of the Trinity. His purpose is to magnify the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to bring men to faith in Him. To carry out that plan. He sends men out to speak of Jesus. The sent one is always successful, for he goes the way, at the time, and in the power of the Holy Spirit. To be sent by Him is the mark of distinction upon the Christian work er. m. Serving by Deed and Word (14:8-18). The story of the healing of the man who had been a cripple from birth centers around that beautiful word “faith.” God is always looking for faith in men and women, and so we who serve Him should learn to be alert for even the slightest indication of ■ belief in Christ. All too often we blunder along, a bit too eager for action, or too insistent upon a thing being done in just our way, and thus fail to see the gleam of faith to which we may address the gospel appeal. ‘‘Seeing that he had faith” (v. 9), Paul turned all the power of the eternal God loose in the impotent feet of the man, "and he leaped up and walked.” God help us to be ready to be channels for the outflow ing of His power! Impressed by the miracle, the people wanted to accord the disci ples the worship of gods. One is im pressed both by the promptness with which Paul and Barnabas stopped the demonstration and the skill with which they improved the occasion for a testimony for Christ! The servants of Christ are in far greater danger when men speak well of them and would worship them, than they are in the hour of opposition and persecution. Not that anyone would suggest that ■ true word of appreciation or honor be withheld from a faithful teacher or preacher, but let it be given for God’s glory and not for the praise of man. IV. Suffering for Christ’s Sake (14:19, 20). The highest praise quickly turns to the most bitter hatred. Finding that they had foolishly attempted to deify two Jewish preachers, and being visited by the Jews who made it their business to pursue Paul to this city, they stoned him. Incidentally, it is of interest to observe how zealous people can be for an evil cause. Having set out to hinder the gospel they were will ing, yes eager, to spend time and money to carry cut their purpose. The children of Satan are often more diligent than the children of light (cf. Luke 16:8). Paul was left for dead; in fact, there are those who believe that he was dead, and that it was at this time he was caught up into the heav ens and had the vision spoken of in II Corinthians 12:1-4. If that was the case, the raising of Paul was an actual resurrection from the dead. For a man so stoned as to be left for dead, to arise and journey on the following day to another city, was a miracle of God’s power. In this case, God delivered His servant, not from his troubles, but through them. We must not always expect to be saved from trial, but we can be sure that God will deliver us either "out off’ or "in” our trou bles. Let us trust Him!
