twentyfive companies that maintained or increased newspaper advertising in 1931 and twentyfive companies in corresponding trade groups that decreased their news paper advertising show that the net earn- ings of the year for the farmer group were only seven per cent below the year preceding while the earnings of the latter -group- dropped seventythree per cent according to a study made by the bureau of advertising of the american news paper publishers association the study shows that earnings of many companies have been maintained or increased by consistent newspaper ad- vertlsing and that several concerns have reached new highs during the depression through the ability to concentrate on profitable markets and realize immediate sales with newspaper advertising one automobile concernincreasing its newspaper budget thirtythree per cent in 1931 raised its net earnings in that year forty per cent the survey revealed another manufacturer in the highly competitive electric refrigerator market states the report spent 200000- last year in newspaper space and dollar sales for the year were 460 per cent of sales in 1930 of four leading tobacco manufacturers who increased newspaper advertising in 1931 three showed an increase in earn ings and one a slight decline from the high net of the year preceding aggro gate expendltuies of these four com panies in newspaper advertising increas- ed by thirty per cent from 20000000 in 1930 to 26000000 ih 1931 while ag gregate earnings increased from 105- 200000 to 111300000 on the other hand the bureau report points out that four tobacco companies that decreased their aggregato investment in newspaper pac in 1931 showed u fcityrivo per- cent decline in combined net earnings i new prducts successful promoted in newspapsis have- helped to expand the sales of many companies the survcy shows one drug concern that increased its newspaper space expenditure from 200000 to 300000 and popularized twj new products in 193ljrepoited the best year in its history not enly states the rcporttdid sales of trie ndw products help to increase net earnings but sales of the companys regular brands were also increased by 35

gifts for bullrnngj the tabernacle golden text honor jehovah with thy substance and with the first fruits of all thine increase proverbs 3 9 lesson text ex 35 2029 read ex 35 436 tl l time 1491 b c place the wilder ness exposition i all the people of god working for the house of god 2024 moses had called all the congregation of the children of israel together and told them what jehovah had cemmand- edregarcunghetuiiding or the taber nacle v 4 it was the plan of god that everyone should have a part in the build ing of this meeting place between him and the people each on giving according to bis ability and according to what he had in his possession cf 2 cor 9 7 goo does no v look upon the size of the gift but upon the love that is in it and desires all to have a part in his work whether- they can give little or much only those were to give who were of a our giving today is exactly the same 2 cor 9 7 no one loses by really cheerful giving for itis to the cheerful giver that god is able to make all grace abound that they flalwys having all sufficiency in all things may abound unto every good work-2-cor- moses had gane into great detail as to what the willinghearted people should give vs 69 the object of this was that all might see that though they had not muoh they might have something that would be cf use in the building of the nouseof god and god despises no gift no matter how humble or how small if there is love back of it even though they might have only a few goat hairs even these would be acceptabe v 23 many a gift that seems too humble to give to god brings joy to the heart of god luke 21 14 when all the congregation departed from the presence of moses they went to do exactly jxs god had commanded and they came not only a few but every one whose heart stirred him up that is the great thing in all giving fend to all christian work that we should give or work not by compulsion but because the love of our heart stirs us to work there is another expressive phrase in verse 21 every one whom his splritmade willing the offering which they brought was the lords offering it was not brought for the praise of men nor for the honor of men but jehovah himself and for his glory alone often times when we bring our offerings in these days to build a church it is really not the lords ottering but a magnificent building is erected for the glory of some man or group of men or some denom ination what they brought was for tne wort of the tent cf meeting ana also for all his that is gods service and also for the holy garments of the fwiestsi these-garments-were-not-merely- for adornment but they expressed some great truths not the men only but the women also had a part in the giving they gave up the things they had had for their personal adornment brooches and earrings and signet rings and arm lets even all their jewels of gold these gifts just mentioned were from the women but the men also offered an offering of gold unto the lord it was no nickle collection in verse 23 we see what variety of things were needed for and useful in the building of the taber nacle every detail is worthy of study il all the women that were vvise- hearted did spin 25 26 not only gifts were brought but work was given oftentimes people who can give nothing else can give their work for the service of god in verse 25 we have gods description of a wisehearted woman all the women that were wise- hearted did spin with their hands it would be a goo thing in some of our churches today if some oi our cnurcn women showed their wisdom by talking less and working more and the same thing is true of our men one of the outstanding women of the new testa ment one of the- very few whom god saw fit to raise from the dead had proved her wisdom while alive by the use of her needle acts 9 3541 they spun a great variety of cloths of blue andof purple and of scarlet and of fine linen ovcrandcver again wehave in this lesson a illustration of the great variety of things that can be made useful for god other women spun goats hair not such pleasant work but just as useful for gods service and that is the main thing to consider ih rulers brought onyx stones 27- 29 the rulers also brought their part iis they were richer they brought richer gifts buf they were no more acceptable to god but these precious stones had their place in the garments which were to be made fcr the high priests arujl they were far better used for the service ci god than for personal adornment in addition to the precious stones they brought costly spices and ells for the light and for the anointing oil and fcr the sweet incense ah these things were typical of tuths nbout god and of our service to him thc light was typical of cur lord jefft himself john 8 12 the nnointlng oil was typical of the holy spirit acts 10- 38 1 john 2 20 27 the owcet incense was typical of prayer rev 5 8 r v 8 3 again we are reminded that the offering was a willing offering or freewill offering v 29 r v and again we are told that it was unto the lord and the enly cnes who gave were those whose heart made them willing and hey brought for all manner of work everything was done exactly as the lord had commanded it to be done 1 v jt qng iiytyttammt was bv the hand of mdees god said it but moses wrote it moses gave them ncr instructions of bis own he had full directions from the lord and the whole tabernacle was built according to the pattern which jehovah himself hadshojknmoses in the mount every principle of true ctartotlan giving seems to be found set fortn in this old old legislation for israel promulgated 1500 years before jesus christ was4m how is that to be accounted for- tfiere is only one possible answer to that ques tion that has the slightest semblance of reasonableness namely moses was in spired of god the pn r atthe c n e illustrating- in a pictorial way the varied opportunities offered in canada jo the investor arid the- tourist the

because it is handmade someof the primitive tug weavers of india china persia and so on often spend almost a lifetime making a single rug naturally thu gives the oriental rugs a personal touch noff possible with the machinemade kind that are turned out by the hundreds in our great fac tories much- of the popularity of the oriental rug is also due to their individ ual designs and excellent wearing quali ties although the finest rugs aie woven in the large oriental cities those produced on the crude looms of the wandering tribes have furnished collectors with many of the most original and beautiful designs prayer rugs are produced large ly by these primitive people in them re woven designs signifying various tnbal beliefs the colors 6t which are far superior to those of the citymade rugs as the value of an oriental rug is usually judged by the intricacy of its design and its apparent age most of the rug makers in the persian cities spread their finished products out in the streets and allow pedestrians to walk over them several days of this rather heroic treat ment gives the rugs the desired aged effect and they are then ready for tour- tots to buy as antiques that have been in one family for many years or go to foreign markets with the same guairan- tee the rugs woven in the oriental cities are produced by the regular commercial methods wooljs brought jn by shep herds and disposed of in the market place native cleaners and dyers buy jt after which it is sold to professional weavers who come to the market to pur chase dyed wool and to visit the pattern makers for new designs cotton and silk are used to a limited extent in persian and chinese rugs the most beautiful sllliy oriental rugs how ever are made from iraw wool just as it comes from the sheeps back as the grease in this wool brightens the colors with which it is dyed before being woven nowadays there are such clever imi tations of real oriental rugs that people who buy them should go to only the most reliable merchants whose buyers are experts in detecting the imitation from the genuine the small prayer rugs are very easily identified by aji expert who is even able to know the
