He was f-taught to honor father and mother to do good works, to seek peace and good will, and to study the Law. The last was regarded as highest and most im portant of all. The words of Deut. 5: 5‘1,1 4-9 and 11: 13-21 written on a folded parchment and attached to the door post would early become familiar to him. The services of the synagogue, the quiet and rest of the Sabbath day, the festivals and other holy days, would all be full I interest and in- struction. It was a rich and wholeâ€" some life into which the Jewish child grew. The home teaching and ex- ample was supplemented by the school, when, an ancient Jewish writer tells us, it was the teacher’s high privilege and honor to impart to the children “the precious knowledge of the flaw, with constant adaptation to their ca- paciy, with unwearied patience, in- tense earnestncss, strictness tempered by kindness, but aboye all with the highest object of their training in View,” that is clean living, in gentle- ness, the love of virtue, truthfulness, industry, and self-control. I. THE JEWISH HOME, Luke 1: 5-23. II. THE CHILD IN THE HOME, 1: 57-66. IIL THE PROPHET OF THE MOST HIGH, Luke 1: 67-80. INTRODUCTIONâ€"The series of lessons which we have followed in the Old Testament have given us glimpses of some good homes of the ancient people of God. It has always been a peculiar pleasure to turn from stories of war and conquest, of cruelty and violence, of covetousness and greed, to pictures of the simple homely virtues, of faith, and courage, and family affection, and unselfish love. The best that was found in Hebrew homes was very good indeed. Of Abraham it was said that he was known of the Lord, “to the end that he night command his children and his household after him, that they might keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment.” In many a home the Deuteronomic law must have been known and honored and its pre- cepts taught to the children and talked of day by day (Deut. 6: 4-9). There were good women who made their homes places of widespread influence and power: Deborah, the prophetess, “a mother in Israel”; Hannah the mother of Samuel; Naomi and Ruth; Abigail a woman bf good understand- ing and of a beautiful countenance whose tactful Wisdom saved a foolish husband and prevented bloodshed, and the great woman of Shunem, whose home provided “a little chamber on the wall” for the prophet of God when he passed that way (1 Sam. chap 25; 2 Kings chap 4). Nor can one forget the home in which children are regard- ed as an “heritage of the Lord," or the virtuous woman of Proverbs 31 Whose children rise up and call her blessed and “the heart of her hus- band trusteth in her.” It was “in the days of Herod,” who has been called Herod the Great, who reigned 37-4 13‘ C., that Zacharias min- istered in the temple in “the priests office in the order of his course.” Twenty-four such courses are named in 1 Chron chap p. 24, of which the course of Abijah was the eighth. Each course, or company, of priests served in turn for one. week, dividing the priestly tasks between the individual members by lot. To Zacharias at this time had fallen the dutv of burning the incense upon the golden altar, and it was there by the altar, the fragrant Smoke of which symbolized the prayers of the people, that the good priest be- held the vision and received the prom- ise of that for which he had long prayed, vs. .5113.

In this home the birth of a child was an occasion for rejoicing. “The Lord had magnified his mercy towards” the happy parents, and their neighbors and kinsfoik rejoiced with them. They did not forget the sacred offices of their religion, but dedicated their child to God according to the ancient cus- ftom, Gen. 17: 12; Lev. 12: 3.

The pious, well-ordered Jewish home was a. food training school for the pro- phet. t was John’s high calling and office to prepare the way for Jesus. Last of the prophets of the 01d Testa- ment, the old covenant, it was his to “go before the face of the Lord to make ready his ways.” In the failing light of the Old he foresaw and an- nounced the dawning of the New day of salvation for Israel and for the world. It was a difficult and strenu- ous task that was given him, to preach repentance, the turning from the evil to‘ the good, preparing the way for Christ’s proclamation of the kingdom of God, and it was needful that he should become “strong in spirit” for its performance. It’s exceptionally attractive because of its simplicity and wearability. And it is. such an easy affair to fashion.

What New York is Wearing HOW TO ORDER PATTERNS By BUD FISHER Apparatus developed by the tele- tres. vision company for stage reproduction is said to give reproduction of images approximately four feet square. Spe- cial transmitting equipment has been Qevised which permits the broadcast- ing of full-length images of enter- tainers appearing before the televis- ion camera. It is expected that dramas will be broadcast for the thea- tre receptions. Interest in Image Sending Gains as Theatres Seek Installations for - Patrons New Yorkâ€"Television is gaining considerable interest. in England, and it is likely that several London thea- tres will install equipment this winter for the entertainment of patrons, ac- cording to information received by the US. Department of Commerce recent- 1);. The same estimate, which is based on data gathered by Lewis Winner, New York radio expert, indicates that by the end of the year 12,000 more hotels will have installed radio. With about 25,000 hotels and apart- ment hotels now in operation, this estimate means that 7,500 of them have fitted up their guest rooms eith- er with loud speakers connected to a central receiver or with receiver out- lets for antenna and ground counec- tions. Televisiori Proves Popular In London Cough plates for this purpose may be made with a coating consisting of a. mixture of boiled potato, agar. glycerin and blood serum, which gives a most favorable condition for the fast growth of the bacillus. This mixture, coated on a small plate or disk of wood or glass, should be held, in ob- taining a possible culture, about two or three inches the patient’s mouth during a deep coughing period. Negotiations are under way with a prominent British television company for the installation of a stage receiv- ing set which will permit the theatre audience to witness entertainment broadcast from a point several miles from the stage. Thirty per cent. of the hotels in the US. have radio installations, a survey shows. according to The As- sociku’ed Press. Whooping Cough Tests Hastene'l New Method of Diagnosis Urged to Avert Dangers of Delayed Quaran- tine Delays in quarantining whooping- cough suspects until the characteristic whoop appears are at least partly re- sponsible for the increase in the dis- ease which has brought its death toll up‘to twice that of scarlet fever, ac- cording to a report to the American Medical Association by Dr. L. W. Sauer and Leonora. Hambrecht, of Evanston, Ill. . ' It is no longer necessary for the physician to wait for the familiar Whooping to diagnose the infection in a suspect case, as the bacillus can be detected by cough plates held near the patient's mouth during a coughing spell. The pertussis bacillus which causes the disease may be passed on to cthers long before the cough be- comes evident. Under the present system oi diagnosis, therefore, the quarantine is established a consider- able time after the period of greatest contagion has passed, these author- ities charge. Great effort is being made‘to ex- ploit television in England. Programs are now being transmitted on regular schedule for reception by amateurs, and it is reported there are several thousand listeners in the vicinity of London equipped with the apparatus. Radio Used in Third of American Hotels The theatre aspect is regarded as new although the British television company interested in the project has been attempting to promote the idea for several years. Applications for apparatus in theatres are said to be approximately twenty.

Rice has most at its health-giving vitamins polished off, The continuous use of sugar in America is steadily growing. It is interesting to note that a century ago people of this country consumed enough sugar to give each person about 8 pounds in one year. Now the amount of sugar consumed in one week averages 3 pounds for each per- son. Just think ot that. Since sugar is so very high in calories what is the logical thing that will happen? We become too fat. One hundred years ago Canadians per person used around 44 calories of sugar 3. day in various forms. Now they use 547 calories per day. It comes in our candy, soft drinks, ice cream, the bake shop, condensed milk and so finds its way into our stomachs. One of our eminent food doctors paid this tribute to sugar: “Common sugar is almost an ideal food, cheap, clean, white, portable, imperishable, unadulterated, pleasant tasting, germ free, highly nutritious, completely sol- uble, altogether digestible, easily as- similated, requires no cooking and leaves no residue.” Then he adds, with physiological wisdom, “it's only fault is its perfection. It is so pure that man cannot live on it." Chocolates would not look so good to the type of person Whose surplus food intake turns to fat it she knew that just two chocolates a day for a year, over and above the amount of food it takes to keep your body nor- mal, would make one 18 pounds over- weight at the end of the year. It is appalling isn’t it? So it you have formed the habit of “The magazine and a. box of chocolates,” just figure it out. Each chocolate adds another little lump of fat where it is not wanted. When one thinks of it as a lump of fat, it isn't so tempting. o Calories ................ 000 So often we receive this advice while reducing. “Do not eat any sugar or starches." But if one is Supposed to~have a balanced diet how is it possible to leave out sugar. It is sugar that burns up the fats. If fat is to be_.burned in the body which is necessary for proper assimilation, there must be a sufficient quantity of sugar-fuel to burn it; so it is com- forting to know that we must have some of all the important foods, only it is necessary to count our calories and use our judgment about the divis- ion for proper balance. But they are good and one just can- not give them up without a few qualms of remorse. So to those who are reducing and are rigidly keeping to 1200 calories each day a good way might be to eat 1 or 2 for dessert, then mount it in your book. Which would you consider the better menu for lunch. both menus consisting of the same number of. calories? 3 large chocolate creams, 300 calories, or 1A; slice toast 'or whole slice By Marie Ann Best ARTICLE 8 “How about chocolates?" exclaims the lover of sweet meats. “I simply can‘t do without them altogether." Let me tell you something about them, and not all bad news either. Chocolates are filled with good food but that's the trouble if one would reduce. There are altogether too many calories in a chocolate. For instance one tantalizing, delicious chocolate cream which looks so in- nocent in its soft smooth finish and which disappears so meltingly and quickly, counts a total of 100 calories. melba toast ................... 1 tsp. butter ..................... 1 cup cooked spinach 1 poached egg ................. 1/; large muskmelon ..... 1 dessertspoon ice cream Doctor Says Sugar Is Perfect Food SWW cream ................ 25 35 50 60 Privately owned aeroplanes in Great Britain now number 295, divided among 263 owners, of whom 24 have two planes each.

It must be ground at the mill and used immediately. We should adopt some of the methods of earlier years and get close to nature, accepting foods as she prepared them for her children. We wish to make it clear, however, that the advice here given applies to people who are overweight but are otherwise healthy and desire to re- duce. We are liable to eat foods with too many calories and because we do not need so many calories but more vita- mins and minerals we store up layer upon layer of fat. This makes it quite plain what we must do.

The thin tops of some knee-high leath- er shoes is not absolutely safe against poisonous snakes when the leather has become soft from repeated use. Hunt- ers in the Southern States find that leather leggings afford suflicient pro- tection against the bites of poisonous snakes in that region; and a specially constructed rubber boot, with a shank including several layers of canvas, used by quail hunters in Florida, is a perfect protection for the parts it 1 cup macaroni, cooked . ............. 100 1 cup butter, 374; lb. ........................ 1750 1 cup grated cheese ........................ 400 Some commonly used home-made dishes in (These are of course approximate, since no two people cook alike.
