Old Man Texas has sharpened his pencil. There’s a
’ job to be done.
* Uncle Sam has a war to win and it will be paid for
by you and me.
Our big job is to meet rapidly increasing federal taxes and
buy defense bonds. And added to these are the costs of our
local and State governments, including bond issues. The
money to pay for them must all come out of the same pocket.
To make the bill fit our pocket, we’re going to have to cut
out some of the things we can do without. Among these are
new bond issues, new State and local taxes and noncssential
spending in every branch of government.
Old Man Texas is looking to taxing officials all
State to be on the alert to effect economies.
Every local fax dollar saved for Texas taxpayers
is another dollar available for victory.

Canning in War Time
We may expect shortages in the
supply of aluminum pressure cook-
ers, metal lids and rubper rings
for screw type glass jars, and tin
cans. Shortages of a chemical used
in the manufacture of glass are
anticipated; people who intend to
preserve food will do well to start
collecting ylass containers. Now
is the time to place your orders
for pressure cookers, fruit jar lids,
fruit jar rubbers, tin cans etc, used
in preserving foods. Your deal-
er has a considerable stock of
equipment on hand, but if he
knows your needs then he can place
his orders now and thus supply
you for your canning needs.
Check Pressure Cookers
Pressure cooker gauges should
be checked before each canning
■ season and after any hard jar.

now that many people will begin
using their pressure cookers again
for canning. Petcocks and safety

time Mrs. R. L. Turner was elect-

to serve the remaining part of
this church year. These offices
were left vacant recently, caused
by the moving away of Mrs. Buddy

LESSON

Dean of The Moody Bible InsUtut*
of Chicago.
Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se-
lected and copyrighted by International
Council ot Reflgious Education: used by
permission.
God is sovereign and has all pow-
er. He might, therefore, perform
His works without the help of man,
and on many an occasion He does
just that.
That fact makes it all the more
glorious that He ordinarily works
through men, giving to them the
privilege of companionship with
Him in service. Sinful and weak
though they may have been, they
become strong and holy in Him,
able to do valiant service in His
name.
I. Appointed to Serve Christ (w.
12-19).
It is the constant teaching of
Scripture that those called to serve
God are not self-appointed. They
are:
1. Chosen by Him (vv. 12, 13). He
chooses whom He will, gives them
the gifts and the grace for ministry
(and both are important!), and pro-
vides them a place of service. It is
vital to the servant of Christ that
he know that he has been chosen
and called of the Lord. Only with
that assurance can he meet the
problems and bear the burdens of
the work.
Observe that it was after a night
of prayer that Jesus appointed the
twelve. How many churches give
that much prayer to the choosing
of its leaders? Do we not need it
far more than did our Lord?
2. Called from Many Walks of
Life (vv. 14-16). The apostles were
men of widely differing gifts, tem-
peraments, and personal character-
istics. Some had unusual ability,
others apparently were of ordinary
qualifications. They were of many
occupations, fishermen, a tax gath-
erer, etc.; but not one was by pro-
fession a preacher or priest.
Were men to choose for such of-
fices they would look within the nar-
row limits of a few learned profes-
sions, with certain nationalities pre-
ferred, and with position in life an
important factor. God cuts across
every man-made limitation and
calls His workers as He sees fit.
3. Companions in Service (vv. 17-
19). At once the twelve received
their introduction to service to the
great multitude diseased, demon
possessed, in spiritual need. It was
Jesus who healed them (and notice
that "he healed them all,” v. 19),
but verse 17 tells us that the newly
appointed apostles came and stood
with Him. They had fellowship with
the healing and serving Christ, just
as we may have it in service for
Him today.
II. Prepared to Live for Christ
(vv 20-26).
Service for Christ is as much (per-
haps we should say, more) by life
as by ministry. The twelve needed
instruction that their spiritual per-
spective might be right. He tells
them
1. How to Meet Difficulties (vv.
20-23). Poverty, hunger, weeping,
being hated for Christ’s sake, these
were the things that Jesus knew
His servants might expect, so He
prepared them. They were told that
these things need not diMurb them,
for there is a kingdom coming;
there will be a time when every
hunger will be satisfied, when weep-
ing shall turn to laughter.
Hatred for Christ’s sake is de-
clared to be the occasion for an
outburst of joy because of the rer
ward which awaits in heaven.
Scripture speaks much of rewards,
and we do well to encourage our-
selves and other Christians by the
blessed prospect
Meeting difficulties is a
of having mental and spiritual eyes
rightly focused. If we do. we can
see right through them and see that
on the other side there is blessing.
But there are temptations in an-
other direction, so He tells them
2. How to Avoid Dangers (vv. 24-
26) Jesus is here sneaking of those
who. lacking true spiritual vision,
revel in the satisfaction of worldly
things without a thought of God. The
passage, however, may well be ap-
plied to the worker for Christ. Often
he will be tempted to covet the
wealth, the prosperity, the pleas-
ures. and popularity of those round
about him.
The question which comes to him
is. Why should I and my family not
share these pleasnnt things’’ There-
in lies a temptation to become
worldly-minded, centered In the tem-
poralities of life Let him learn that
money in itself cannot bring last-
ing joy; that the fullness of this
world is soon exchanged for an eter-
nal emptiness; that the shallow
laughter of thia world's fun rapidly
gives way to weeping
The praise ot men—popularity
with those who know not Christ—is
a fickle thing One day they will
praise a man to the skies, and the
next day no evil word or disgrace-
ful treatment la spared to destroy
and dishearten him
