Chapter I will contain the record from the beginning of creation to the flood. This period is called the book of generations of Adam. It records the lives of men like Adam, Seth, Enos, Enoch, Me thuselah, Noah, and covers a period' of time variously esti mated from 1600 to 2200 years. Chapter II records the events be tween the age of Noah and the life of Abraham. It tells of Shem and Nahor and Terah and Abram and covers a period of time sometimes estimated at 500 years and again as 1200 which is prob ably nearer the truth. Chapter III contains the record of Hebrew history from the time of Abra ham to the Exodus, estimated at between 400 and 600 years. Chap ter IV is the history from the Exodus to the crowning of Saul the first king, covering a period of approximately 300 years and containing the stories of such people as Barak, Deborah, Gideon, Jephthah, Samson, who are called judges. Chapter V re cords the period of Israel’s Golden Age, when Saul, David imd especially Solomon created not only national unity but a great Israelite empire. Each of these three kings is recorded as reigning for forty years, thus covering a period of 120 years. It also records the breaking up of the nation into the Kingdom of Israel and the Kingdom of Judah. This period contains not only the story of the rise and fall of the monarchy but also the wonderful ministry of the prophets such as Isaiah, Jeremiah, Amos, Hosea. Chapter VI lecords the checkered history of the nation during and after the Babylonian exile which took place in 587 B. C. During and following the exile, we have the stories of Esther and Ezekiel, of Ezra and Nehemiah, and some of the Psalms. During this period Israel came into contact with Babylonia, .Egypt, Persia, and finally Rome. The place of religion in the life of a nation. If history has any lesson to teach it is contained in the words, "Righteousness exalt eth a nation; but sin is a reproach to any people” (Proverbs 14:3). We cannot escape that law our selves neither can the nation escape it. It is written in the Old and the New Testaments. It ap pears in secular history. Sciexxce proclaims it, and religion preaches it. Experience confirms it and history witnesses to it. It is be ing discovered in the rubbish heaps of buried civilizations. Modern explorations are con stantly bearing testimony to the truth that nations rise and fall, become strong and weak in ac cordance with their religious and moral loyalties.—Tarbell.

Cele bration of “National Employ the Handicapped Week” proclaimed by President Truman for the week of Oct. 3-9 was a boon to Negro handicapped persons, it was said this week since national atten tion was focused upon their spe cial employment problems. Of 28 million handicapped U. S. workers, 9 million are now lo cated in industry, one-half mil lion are employable but idle, and an additional million will be seek ing jobs when they have been re habilitated. It is believed that a sizeable proportion of this classi fication of workers are Negroes* although government bureaus claim they do not keep files by race. Aside from the factor of race and color Negroes are especially disadvantaged in efforts to become integrated into industry when blind, paralyzed, or amputees ac cording to agency heads assisting such persons. Vice Adm. Ross T. McTntire, USN, Ret., chairman of the NEPHW committee, said this year’s history of the campaign, and-added that employment op portunities for the handicapped are greater now than ever be fore.

Mft t-T6Tl serves National Employ the Physi cally Handicapped week, October 3 to 9, Ashley Westmoreland, Lin coln regional office manager, re ported today that 1505 severely 1 disabled World War II veterans in Nebraska have applied to the VA for special rehabilitation training which will help prepare them tc become job-holders again. Westmoreland explained VA considers a severely disabled vet eran as one whose disability is such that special procedures are necessary in training him and in placing him in employment. Some 340 veterans who have ap plied for vocational rehabilitation aid now are in training, West moreland said. Applicants include 11 blinded veterans, 741 suffer ing orthopedic ailments, includ ing amputees, and 69 with ar rested tuberculosis. The 457 who have completed their training in Nebraska are now working in private industry or awaiting job placement. “It is good business for em ployers to hire the physically handicapped,” Westmoreland as serted. “It has been proved through extensive surveys by the U.S. Department of Labor that disabled workers have production, safety and efficiency records equal to or better than those of able bodied employees. -1-————— I APEX FURNACE CO. ★ For “OK” and Speedy Service Call Apex Phone 3-2266 ★ Furnace Cleaning, Air Condi tioning, Gutter Repair, Sheet Metal Work Free Estimates are Gladly^ Giv en on Gas Furnaces and Conversion Burners < 1032 South St.
