Broiled Meat "Best People, generally are awaking to the benefits of broiled foods. For years medical authorities have urged this form of cooking, but until recent- ly-it"was not a practical means of preparing foods in the smaller towns or on the farms where gas and elec- tric ranges were not available. The development and perfection of gas-pressure stoves, however, has made it possible for everyone, in the town. or country, to enjoy this health- ful form of cooking, These new stoves "have the same casy operation as the ordinary gas stoves, and give the in- tense quick heat necessary for brojl- ing, without dirt or smoke. Doctors generally advise against too many fried foods, and the best alternative usually is broiling. Too SPRINGTIME SALAD much grease from frying is Injurious to the digestive system. In addition to being healthier, many foods taste better when broiled. Tender, juicy 'steaks and chops may be broiled just as the family likes them -- rare, me- dium, or well-done: And they retain their natural, delicious flavor in the broiling process. Young poultry, tish and game birds are even more appe- tizing when broiled. Broiled bacon is another tempting dish made possible with this modern cooking equipment, and delicious toast can be quickly pre- pared in quantity.

The laws will set up a special tax for single men and childless couples, will provide state financial aid for families with many children and will put a tax on divorces. Regulations also © will be enacted to prohibit certain operations except where they are demanded in the in- terests of health this is a reversal of the former Soviet viewpoint which facilitated such operations. Aaron Soltz chairman of the Su- preme Court and member of the committee framing the new laws, as- serted they were necessary to give the Soviet Union more people. 'He declared that although the Soviet woman has been raised on a basis of "absolute equality" with man, she "cannot be released from the great and honorable duty of bringing children into the world." The. Soviet "planning commis- sion" forsees a population of 300,- 000,000 by 1971 as a result of the campaign to increase the birth rate under the new laws.

JESUS INSPIRES HONESTY.-- : "Luke 19. y GOLDEN TEXT -- Thou shalt) not steal. --Exodus 20 : 15. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time--The conversion of Zacchaeus and the teaching of the parable that follows, took place during the month of March, A.D. 30; the triumphal entry into Jerusalem occurred on Sunday, April 2, A.D. 30; and the second | purification of the temple occurred on the next day, April 3. Place--The city of Jericho wit- nessed the conversion of Zacchaeus and the teaching of the parable of the ten pounds; the events occurring in the triumphal entry of Christ in. to Jerusalem are to: be located on the Mount of Olives and the road leading therefrom to the city of Jerusalem, near which Christ wept for its coming doom. The last four verses of the chapter describe events taking place in the temple in the city of Jerusalem. "And he entered and was passing through Jericho. And behold, a man called by name Zacchaeus." The name Zacchaeus means pure. "And he was a chief publican," This is, un- doubtedly, an official title, and means that he was, in our language, a com- missioner of taxes. "And he was rich." The age of Jesus was not the last age in which public officials grew wealthy as servants of the government, nor was the ancient Roman Empire the only sphere in which such was possible, i "And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not_for the crowd, because he was little of stature." There is in the minds of people, generally, a very great reverence for any eminent servant of God, and, when he makes his appearance in any place, men crowd to hear him, not out of curiosity .altogether, but, with a sort of dim desire and hope that he whom God-has, so blessed to others, may also bring some mes- sage to them. "And he ran on before, and climb- ed up into a sycomore tree to sce him: for he was to pass that way." "| The tree is probably what is known as a fig-mulberry tree, whose fruit is like the fig and whose leaf is like the mulberry. It is something similar to the English oak, and its shade is most pleasing. "And when Jesus came to the place, 'he looked up, and said unto him; Zacchaeus, . make haste, and come down; for today I must abide at thy house." Jesus invites himself to be Zacchacus's guests with the same motive which had prompted him to beg water of the Samaritan woman (John 4 : 7), that he might win his way into the man's heart. - "And he made haste, and came down, and received © him "joyfully." One can hardly exaggerate the as- tonishment, joy, and wonder crowd- ing the heart of Zacchaeus in this most epechal hour of lis life. "And when they saw it, they all murmured, saving, He is gone in to lodge with a man that is a sinner." The all is very significant as show- ing how deep-seated was the national feeling, which, because it was un- worthy, our Lord, at the very zenith of his ecarthly popularity, thus un- flinchingly braved. . "And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half. of my goods I give to the poor." By this, he meant, of course, that one- 'half of his income he would bestow upon the poor. "And if I have wrong- fully exacted aught of any man, I restore fourfold." The restoring of goods falsely obtained in this four- fold way, was almost the extreme penalty imposed by the law, when a man was compelled to make repar- ation for a deliberate act of des- tructive robbery (Ex. 22 : 1; 2 Sam. 12 : 6). / "And Jesus said unto him, Today is salvation come to this house, for- ham." How low Zacchaeus.was in the 'moral scale and yet how - high he rose! ' "For the Son of man." This is Chist's favorite title for himself, one which -he uses about eighty times in the Gospels. It pointed him out as the representative mah (1 Cor, 15 : 45, 47. "Came to seek and to save that which was lost." To be lost is to wander and to miss the true way of human life; to go off the (track and get where the true path is no more visible, the 'consequence heing that the true end of human life is not reached. "And he entered into the temple." It is only from the record in Mark (IT : 1217) that we discover that this second cleansing of the temple (for the first cleansing, sce John 2 H 14--22) occurred, not on Sunday, as Luke's narrative would imply, but does not assert, but, rather, on the following day, Monday. "And began to cast out them that sold." Inas- much as every true Jew was expect- ed to come up to Jerusalem at least once a year to offer sacrifices in the temple, most of which, being animal sacrifices, were © purchased within the temple precincts, or immediate- ly near by, and, inasmuch as every Jew over twenty years of age was bound by the law to pay a half- shekel into the treasury whenever the nation was numbered, a tribute that had to be paid in the exact half- shekel, demanding an exchange of money when Jews came from other countries, one can imagine how un- scrupulous men would take advant- afre of loyal Jews, and what an awful din and confusion must have prevail- ed in the temple, making it more like a market-place or an oftice for collecting government taxes than a place where God was to be worship- ped. "Saying unto them, It is written, And my house" shall be a house of prayer." Every church, even more than the temple, should be consider- ed as the house of God and a house of prayer. "But ye have made it a den of vobbers." Literally, a brig- ands' cave, of which our Lord had seen many. i "And he was teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the principal men. of the people sought to destroy him." A principal man is a man who has great influence and is able to lead others to do what he thinks is right. "And they could not find what they might do; for the people all hung upon him, listening." The chapter closes with a most remark- when it informs us that is, the able statement, that 'all the people, entive . nation as a whole, actually hung upon the words of Jesus; hanged on him as the bee doth on the flower. 0 - ted English Town Nastes (Wall Street Jourral) The coming of the radio is simpli- fying the pnonunciation of names of British-cities that makes them almost unrecognizable. [For example, the new directory of the British Broad- casting Corporation shows that town of Hardenhuish has become "Harn- ish"; Pucknowle is "Punnel;" Gar- boldisham, - "Garbelshan:;" Ulgham, "Uffam;"" Hautbois, "Hobhis:" Moels, "Meels;" 'Cirencester, "Sissiter;" Slaithwaite, "Sloit," ete. So credit radio with another achievement. Charles Dickens' name in full was Charles John Huffam Dickens; but he wisely "dropped the middle two for hix work.

Peterborough Examiner "It has been decided to purchase .a new typewriter for the office of City Engineer in Peterborough. 'he machine which will be displaced has been in service for 21 years. That does not; constitute a record because there are typewriting mach- ines in operation today which have been on the go longer than that, but 21 years of service is a prelly 1afr amount to extract, fror such a mach. ine. The new machine {s to cost $12u, and if it lives as long as its predeces- sor then .the cost per vear will. be about $5.75 plus the amount spent for ribbons. We have sometimes wondered-why more people do not use typewriters. They are rather simple things to op erate with a (air degree of success Nothing much ever goes wrong with them, and a person can write so much more in a given tme, and make it so much plainer, by using a typewriter. When people are in the mood to place modern things in their homes it's a wonder the typewriter is not included, It is one of the greatest conveniences of the aige and a letter written on a machine is so easy to read.
