John :16. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Tlm The announcement of the anyel was In March, 5 B.C. The declaration of Christ concerning Bis saving mission was uttered in March, A..D. 30, and the conversion of Zacchaeus took place at the fame) time. The discourse in wuicu John :16 was found was uttered April, A.D. 27; the later discourse from John, in April A.D. 29. The statement from Acts was given bout A.l). 33. The Epistle to the Roman* and the Second EpUtle to the Corinthians were written about A.D. 60 that to the Phillip- plans A.D. 64, and the First Kills- tie to Timothy, a year later. Place The announcement of the angel was given in Nazareth. The statement of Christ about His sav- ing work was pronounced in .Per- aea. The conversion of Zacchaeus vae In Jericho. The discourse con- taining John 3:16 was given in Jerusalem. The conversation wlUi the dlsclple took place at Caper- naum. Tijo passage from Acts was Tom a speech uttered in Jeru- salem. Romans was written from Corinth; Second Corinthians, pr napa, from PhiUppl; the Epistle to the Phllippians and First Tim- etby were written from Rome. Meaning of Word "Jesus" The New Testament, on Its very first page, declares the purpose tor Mch Jesus came down to earth. Thi purpose- recognizes two facU: first, the fact that men are lost and need salvation; second, the fact that God loves men, and i going to undertake with all of His power to save them. The word "Jeeus" Is the Grek form of the word Joafcua which In turn, Is the abbreviation for the longer word Jeboahua, meaning Jehovah save; feu*, the name Jesue means God saves). Hie Life a Ransom 25. "But Jesus called them unto Him, and said, Ye know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord It over them, and their great onea exer- else authority over them. 36. Not so haU It be among you; but who- oevwr would become great among you shall be your minister; 27. And whosoever would be first among you shall be your servant; 18. even as the Son of man came act to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom to many." Jesus has Just rebuked the mother of the sons of Zebedee for asking for high place* In Christ's Kingdom tor her two sons, as in rebuking her has empihaslzed the virtue of saving other*. To Illustrate, H speaks of His own mission on earth, de- elartnf that He had come, not to be waited upon, but to wait upon others not that the world might serve Him, but that He might n-'n- ister to the world, and to give His life a ransom for many that of HI* own free choice He came to give up His soul or His life that He cave It as a ransom, or in order to have redemption effects. Zacchiueu* Repents 1. "And he entered and was passing through Jericho. 2. And behold, a man called by name Zacohaeus; and b was a chief publican, and be was rich. 3. And he sought to see Jeus who he was; and could not for the crowd, be- oaug he was little of stature. 4. And h ran on before, and climbed up Into a sycomore tree to se him: for he was to pass that way. 6. And when Jesus came to the place, be looked up, and said unto him, Zaccbaeus, make haste, and come down; for today 1 must abide at thy house. (. And be made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully. 7. And when they saw It, they all murmured, saying, He is goue to the lodge with a man that U a sinner. 8. And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord, Betiold, Lord, the halt o (my goods 1 give to the poor; and It 1 have wrong- fully exacted aught of any man, 1 restore fourfold. V. And Jests said unto him, Today is salvation come to this house, forasmuch as he aLun is a sou of Abraham." What a change had come over Zaccheue in a day! What was the caus* of the change? Jesus him- self declares it: "Today is salva- tion come lo tins house." The man first had au inner experience, and now there is an external man- ipulation of such a change iu hii life. He had been delivered [rom his pasaiou for money, and his con- nivance with evil, and now, lustead of doing everything crooked to become wealthy, he Is willing to jive away practically n- ,> . .>uu be baa. that he might have a con- science free from condemnation, WAVELL TALKS WITH RUSSIANS General Wavell chats with Soviet Colonel Povov, centre, via Interpreter, right, in Baghdad. and that he might, from this time, walk uprightly before God. He was that day saved from his sins. Jesus Seeks the Lost 10. "For the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was loet." The faith and salvation of the publican and his family would be utterly impossible except for what the Son of man came to do. It Is Jesus who says me-u are lost, but It Is the same One who eays He came lovingly to seek and to save such. He Is still seek- ing them. He has never sought and found anyone so utterly aban- doned to sin but that He has ben able to save even unto the utter- moat. Dreary Day The postmen recently brought British taxpayers the first income tax bills under a new law calling for up to half of all they earned to the year ending last April 5. What Quarter Hour Would Do For Arms Wiliiam S. Knudsen, Director General of the 0PM, asserted re- cently that even an extra 15 minutes work by every American would step up arms production so much it would bring about Hit- ler's defeat and cut short the duration of the war "by a sub- stantial margin." "If every man working today worked one extra hour a day, six days a week, that would be some- thing like an extra 300,000,000 man hours per week and that would produce a lot more planes, ship*, tanks and guns," he said. "An extra half hour a day would be 150.000,000 more man hours per week and just 15 minutes additional would give us 75,000,- 000 more man hours." Air freight in The Netherlands Indies doubled last year. I THIS CURIOUS WORLD % William Ferguson HGMAN CANCER CAN BE TRANSMI I I bO THAT*=ALLS RROAA THE <K-nr>(c: CONTAINS SULPHATES.

NEXT: Why Is Nevada a too* stale for t woman to find Air-Raid Shelters In Egypt's Tombs Safest Protection From Air Raid* In Egyptian Death Chambers Ancient Egyptian tombs from which mummies have been remov- ed provide the safest air-raid shel- ters in the world for the people of this sand-girat oasis In the western desert of Egypt. When the wax first touched the tar fringe of the western dese-rt the Siwa inhabitants flocked from their rambling mud hut city to nearby Jeble Muta (mountain of death), and made new homes inside death chambers hewn from solid rock thousands of years ago. A visit to this maze of catacombs Is like a itey back In time. Two thousand persons Egyptians, Be- ouin, Berbers, Senussi, Arabs live there in rock caves so low It is impossible for a man to stand upright. Niches which once contained mummies of their ancestors now house crude pottery, cooking pots, smoky o'il lamps of biblical design and modern kettles from Birming- ham, England, the latter via Cairo Bazaars. Veiled women and young girls squat before tires of dried palm leaves like figures from an old Egyptian frieze. Goats and chickens wander free- ly through the innermost recesses of darkened caves which still smell faintly of the rich spices used to mbalm the mummies of long ago. Air Transport For Ocean Cargo Pan American clippers will be- gin ferrying freight across the Atlantic this month, says the New York Times. The needs war have stimulated this develop- ment, yet it is perhaps strange that the existence of slower though cheaper forms of transport should have retarded it so long. In the United States air wcpress is already fourteen years old. Freight-carrying planes offer vital ser vires in undeveloped country. In the sparsely settled northern half of Canada in the same period more tons are trans- ported by sky-way than in this eountry. In Northern Siberia > development is even more striking. Where railways do not exist and water lanes are closed ha Winter the expense of trans- port by air loses much of its im- portance. But airline express Mtes are being rapidly reduced. There is no reason why planes cannot deliver freight as easily <rver the ocean as across land. With ships menaced by submar- ine attack the plane may be the more reliable carrier. Russia Releases Polish Prisoners Returning from a special mis- sion to Moscow, Dr. Joseph Ret- li/i|rer, political chef-de-cabinet to the Polish Premier, Wladyslaw ."Jlkorski, recently praised the speed with which the Russian Government has released Pol'sh prisoners and aided them in form- toig legions to fight Germany. Polish citizens are being re- leased from imprisonment or in- ternment and are being assisted in re-establishing normal eondk tions of life despite the difficult situation created by war. It has been estimated that there are 200,000 poles capable of bear- ing arms with the Russians along the eastern front. Present agree- ments provide that Britain will supply clothing, a large quantity of which has already been ship- ped, and that the Russians would be responsible for military equip- ment for these Poles. All Wives, Attention! Wives can help the Defence program by getting their hus- bands' breakfasts and being gen- erally sympathetic, a safety ex- pert said recently. Home condi- tions are responsible for many industrial accidents that cost 41,912,000 man days of work last year, W. T. Cameron, safety advisor to the United States Labor Department, told a safety conference.
