Wash the Flag That You Wave Don’t forget the Stars and Stripes must be spotlessly clean. It’s a simple operation to wash most flags. Colorfast cotton, the most popular material for house hold flags, goes into the warm suds of washtub or machine. Wool flags or the new nylon and wool blend buntings need a cooler lather, as do silk and rayon. Rinse in water of the same temperature. A flag is hung for drying the same as for patriotic display: with the blue field to the right if flying vertically, with the field to the left if flying horizontally. Never allow the flag to touch the ground. .. . NOTICE .7. W’t have a new telephone number 2-4085 ... NOTICE... Sunday School j Lesson • RUTH, A SYMBOL OF FAMILY LOVE Scripture—Ru th Printed Portion—Ruth 1:8, 14-22 Memory Selection—Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge; thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God. Ruth 1:16. A DISCUSSION OF THE LESSON Introduction: The book of Ruth belongs to the period of the Judges. This was a time of departure of leadership as maintained by Moses and Joshua. It was a time of in tellectual, moral, and spiritual confusion when “every man did what was right in his own eyes.” The distinctive institutions of the nation disintegrated sadly. It is most refreshing to have this charming message come in at this time to brighten the picture. This book is not to be regarded as fiction but as a real chapter in the history of the Hebrew people. The author, whoever he was, probably lived in the earjy days of the kingdom. “The ethical value of the Book of Ruth is consider able, as setting forth an example of steadfast filial piety. The action of Ruth in refusing to desert her mother-in-law and persevering in accompanying her to her own land meets with its due reward in pros perity and happiness to which she became heir, and in the honor which she receives as ancestress to the royal house of David, (Geden) and David’s Greater Son.” THE LESSON I. In and Out of a Strange Land. Famines were common in Old Testament times. We recall that it was famine that caused the family of Jacob to go down into Egypt for assistance, and eventually through the influence of Joseph to settle in the fertile fields of Goshen. Likewise it was because of famine in the land that Isaac went unto Abimelech, king of the Philistines unto Gevar. Conse quently, it was on account of famine that came about “when the judges ruled” that Elimelech of Bethlehem-Judah went to so journ in Moab along with his wife and two sons. Apparently this family became very happily estab lished in Moab. This happiness was not for long, for Elimelech died and left a widow and two sons. There is no evidence that Naomi planned to return to Judea after the death of her husband, for her sons, Mahlon and Chilion, took wives of the women of Moab, Orpah and Ruth, and they seemed to be content to dwell there. But sorrow soon struck again for both Mahlon and Chilion died and Naomi was “left of her two sons and her husband.” PRESENT-DAY APPLICATION By Frederick D. Jordan Los Angeles, Calif. We all like the story of Ruth y-xr.-x- ■'< -.jujuutfwwwi MRS. ANITA SMITH Mrs. Anita Smith is spending the summer at home with her mother, Mrs. Lillian Miller and her aunt, Mrs. J. E. Miller. Mrs. Smith who served as Dean of Women at Bethune-Cookman col lege made a number of stops en route. At Winston-salem she visited her father’s sisters and their families whom she had not and honor her courage and devia tion, her plea and promise t<i Naomi have become famous. Nao mi’s affection for her daughters in-law was also outstanding. There is a proverb current in Palestine even today that “Were a mother-in-law to love her daughter-in-law dogs would go to Paradise.” Love plays a great part in human life, the unselfish ness and constancy and heroism of one woman’s love for another have no greater illustration in all literature than in today’s les son. Christian faith can be most significant in our own homes in the labor, love and kindness shown there. Living together is sometimes a hardship for the members of a household. It was a real tribute to Naomi that she had lived on such good terms with her daughter-in-law that the breaking up of the home seemed such a tragedy. If anyone finds us difficult to live with, let us not wait too long before learning the reason and changing matters. Family love and loyalty exist only where there also exists under standing and forbearing and sym pathy. -!-11 k ROSE MANOR STUDIO 1421 O Street Phone 2-2247 Portraits by Appointment George Randoi, P.

In recent month* educators of the state have stressed the need for more atten tion to the fundamentals. Gov. John Battle last week made his position clear on Vir ginia’s educational problem by stating that he believed the schools in the state should give more attention to the funda mentals of education. That would relate to the teaching of the three R’s with more emphasis than ha« been given in recent years. Considerable work has already been done on the convention pro gram. Plans for it are being guided by J. Rupert Picott, executive sec retary of the Virginia Teachers as sociation. Delegates, visitors and outstanding educators will gather here for the convention from every section of Virginia and several other states and the Dis trict of Columbia. ... NOTICE ...
