The letter was brought by goouts of a Soviet unit operating , behind the enemy lines and was addressed to the girl's mother at Ovdzhomkidbegrad, near Bryansk, The girl says: "We were thrown into cars and travelled for 12 days without bread, "Qh, how I did not want to go.

Fleven Seamen Saved By Hobby Chief Mate Builds Boat Off Hours A Lachine man's hobby saved the lives of eleven Canadian sea- men when their ship was torpedo- ed In the Atlantic recently, mem- bers of the crew disclosed here. Frank Saaw of nearby Lachine, ohief mate on the Merchantman, made a hobby of boat building and had completed a small sailing craft during his off-hours on ship- board, A "When the torpedo struck, the ship caught fire immediately and the seamen who were all forward, were cut off by the flames and deck cargo from the lueboat aft," one of the survivors sald, "Shaw's boat was on the cover of No. 1 "hatch and we just picked it up and threw it over. Eleven of us got into #t and were saved." The remainder of the orew, with the exception of two firemen and an oiler, who are missing, got "away safely in the lifeboat, he added. The survivors wer. picked up by a Canadlan warship twen- ty-eight minutes after the. tor- pedoing. 4 The crow were unanimous in their praise for John Jordan of " Pigin, Ont, second engineer of the torpedoed ship. "The torpedo struck amidships," one related, and immediately Jordon shut off the steam, If he hadn't kept his head the engines would have torn "the 'ship apart." Douglas Benton of Windsor, Ont., on lookout duty at the time, told of seeing the sub and hearing ts motors just before the crash. il He is said to ~ _the Royal H Fi oo TEST FLIGHT OF CANADA'S-1000th ANSON-OF 1942 Li UTPUT ZOOMS 2 Padi : HY 4 Soaring gracefully above the clouds, this Canadian-built Avro Anson plane is being tested by expert Poe before delivery to the Royal Canadian Air Force who use this twin-engined advanced training mbing plane from coast to coast, . Ottawa--"Federal Aircraft Lim- ited delivered recently the 1,000th Anson aircraft produced by the the company In 1942," says 'a statement issued. by the Depart- ment of Munitions and Supply. The company produced {its first elrcraft just a year ago, and pro- duction since that date has stead- ily expanded. The Canadian Anson, a counter. part of the British Avro Anson, is a light reconnaissance bomber, now used as a twin-engined, ad- vanced tralner. Its - weight 1s slightly over three tons, and 15, 000 man-hours are required for its fabrication. This aircraft, used by Canadian Alr Force from coast to coast, Is entirely Canadlan made with the oxception 'of the engines and a few of the instruments required to operate it. It contains more than 40,000 parts. To indcato something of the extent of the 1942 production of Federal Alrcraft, Ray Lawson, president, pointed out that this production of a thousand Intrl- cate aircraft from but one sec- tion of the Canadian Industry compares with a total Canadian production in the last war of only about 3,000 planes of the lighter and smaller types used at that time. y The output of Federal Air- craft does not come from a single plant, but from several at stra- teglc points throughout the Dom- fnfon, These plants In turn are fed by hunreds of other shops and factories, each contributing some part to the finished aircraft. In addition to employing the services of a group of aircraft manufac- turers, Federal Aircraft operates one plant in Montreal. One of the functions of the com- pany is to provide large numbers of the spare parts required for normal maintenance, not only for Canadian Ansons, but for the An- sons produced in England and ship- ped to Canada during the early months of the war when it was anticipated British plants would be able to meet Canadian require- ments for this aircraft. The de- Mveries under this spares pro. gram are keeping pace with ro quirements. A feature of the Canadian An. son is that moulded plywood now plays an- important part in its con- struction. Federal Aircraft con- ducted Its own oxperiments with this material which will soon be used In making the entire fusilage ot the Canadian Anson, SUNDAY ~ SCHOOL LESSON LESSON 40 "Faith In Christ As Our Personal Saviour Acts 16:11-34; Romans 5:1.11; 1 John 5:1-5 PRINTED TEXT Acts 16:13-15; Romans 5:1.11 GOLDEN TEXT.--Being there- fore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 6:1. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. -- Paul entered Europe about A.D. 51 or 52, The Epistle to the Romans was written about A.D. 60; John wrote his First "Epistle "probably about-A:D.--80.-- Place. -- Philippi was a great city of northern Greece. The Epistle to the Romans was writ- ten from the city of Corinth, We do not know from what city the First Epistle of John was written, but probably from the city of Ephesus. Conversion of Lydia 18. "And on the sabbath day we went forth without the gate by a river side, where we sup- posed there was a place of prayer; and we sat down, and spake unto the women that were come to- gether. 14, And a certain wo- man named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyutira, one. that worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened to give heed unto the things which were spoken by Paul. 15, And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and: abide there. And she constrained us." Lydia voluntarily presented herself to her spiritual benefac- tors, and said to them, earnestly ~ and humbly, that, 'since they had regarded her as a. believer on the Lord," her house. should be their home. She admitted of no refusal to her request, and 'their peace was on that house. Thus ghe Gospel had obtained a home in Europe. Nothing could be more calm and tranquil than its first beginnings on the shore of that continent, which it has long overspread, 6 river-side, and in the house of Lydia, are beautiful prophecies of the holy influence which wo- men, elevated by Christianity to their- true position, and. ehabled by divine grace td wear 'the orna. ment of a meck and quiet spirit,' have now for centuries exerted over domestic happiness and the growth of piety and peace. Peace 1, "Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." He who relies on his works for justification, can have no peace, - He can neither remove the dis- 'pleasure. 'of God, nor quiet the apprehension of punishment. Peace is not the result of mere i The scenes by gratuitous forgiveness, but. of Justification,, of a reconciliation founded upon atonement. Paul says we have this peace through our Lord Jesus Christ. It is not through ourselves In any way, neither by our own merit, nor our own efforts. It is all of grace. It is all through Jesus Christ. ~~ Bountiful Grace 2(a). "Through whom also we have had our access by faith into this grace wherein we stand." The word grace here is used, with all its fullness in the background, but in one particular sense, that of favour. Through the redemp- tlon that is in Christ Jesus, and by faith, we have access into the realm of the divine favour, We stand no longer as suppliants outside, but are admitted into the closest and most intimate re- ...lationship with God... _.....__. So Hope . 2(b). "And we rejoice in hope in the glory of God." The cternal bliss of the justified is called 'the glory of God' because it is a state of joy, love and holiness bestowed by God. Tribulations - 8. "And not only us, but we also rejoice in our tribulations: knowing that tribulation worketh stedfastness." ~~ Tribulations, al- {bough for the present not joy- ous, but grievous, become to the believer a matter of Joy and thankfulness, The Divine Process 4, 5(a). "And stedfastness, ap- provedness; and ~approvedness, hope; and hope putteth not to shame." The Divine process is as follows: God brings us into tribu- lations, graciously supplying therewith an expectation of de- liverance in due time; and the knowledge that these tribulations will result in stedfastness; and our consciousness of stedfastness gives as A sense of Divine ap- proval, or approvedness, we did not before have. This sense of God's approval arouses within us abounding 'hope.' God's Love In Us 5(b). "Because the love of God hath been shed abroad in our hearts through the Holy Spirit which was given unto ud." This Divine Spirit that dwells in us, if we are trusting in; Christ, will pour that all-satisfying Love in full streams into our else empty hearts. . . Herein Is Love 8. "For while we were yet weak, in due scason Christ died for the ungodly." That God should love the good, the right- ..eous, the godly, is what we can . understand; but that the infinitely Holy should love the unholy, and give his Son for their redemption, is the wonder of all wonders, Rare Acts of Love 7. "For scarcely for a right- eous man will one die: for per- adventure for the good man some one would even dare to die." Jus- tice and goodness are equally con- trasted with godlessness and sin- fulness here. = The whole point of the verse is that such acts of even such love among men are very rare and very limited indeed, Manifestation of God's Love 8. "But God commendth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." 'God commends His love . .. in that Christ dicd," The love that was in Christ is the mani. festation of the love of God Him- self. Deliverance From Wrath 9. "Much more then, being, now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath of God through him." Having by the death of Christ been brought into the relation of peace with God, being now regarded for his sake as righteous, we shall be saved from wrath through him. He will not leave his work unfinished; whom he justifies, them he also glorifies, The word wrath, of course, means the effects of wrath or punishment, those suf- ferings with which the divihe dis- pleasure visits sin. Reconciliation 10. "For if, while we were . enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life," As Creator and Father, He loves the sinner; as Judge, He must con- demn him--if it were not for His own gift of a Propitiation, And the judge who sentences a crim- inal is, however personally kind, judicially hostile. And again, the judge who for a good cause re- "Milkweed Floss ~ floss from the pod of a milkweed moves the sentence is then judicis ally reconciled to the accused, though he may personally need no reconciliation of feeling, -- Scrip- ture plainly reveals that the God of Love proclaims 'no peace' to the impenitent. Therefore whe He 'spelks peace' there 1s a change, lis benevolence but in His judicial attitude: in other words, reconciliation, 11, "And not only so, bdt we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus- Christ, through whom we have now received the recon- ciliation." "How great a change! Three chapters back, we were sit- ting in the Divine Judge's court, guilty -- our mouths stopped, and all our works rejected! Now, 'thrugh our Lord Jesus Christ' and His work for us, we are re- Joicing, exulting in Him who was our Judge! This is what graco can-"do and does! And we see that it is simply by receiving the reconciliation that has been brought in, by Christ. without considering a possible use for it, says the Port Arthur Nows- Chronicle, Its utilization is about to appear. : At Petoskey, Michigan, a fac- tory has been erected with 62,000 square feet of floor space to em- ploy 80 workmen who will prepare this floss for the United States Navy. The farmers will receivo freo seed and payments to put next year's crop under cultivation. Wild lands in five counties which will yield the floss are estimated to aggregate. 650,000 acres. The farmers of Northern Michigan will be paid $200,000 for 10,000,000 pounds of pods, processing of which will begin this month. Dr. Boris'A. Berkman, a Chicago physician, has the patent rights to the process. The floss-is to be a substitute for kapok in naval life jackets and in lining fliers' suits, It Is asserted that a life jacket of three pounds of floss, that is six times as buoyant as cork, will keep a man afloat for more than 100 hours, . The pre- pared floss 13 described as warm- er than wool and six times lighter. ~ willbe heard over CFRB [RADIO REPORTER most | Autumn to the country dweller and country lover is the season of colour and change, With brush dipped in a flame hued paint box, Nature paints glory into the eoun- tryside.
