Acts 26:19-23; Romans 5:1-8; He brews 12:1-2. The Faith of an Orator, Acts 26:19-23. Here we break into one of the most famous orations in history. “Oratory is the greatest of all the arts. In every age and in every nation it has wielded a more potent influence than any other art.” Paul did not mean to become an orator, but his de fense before King Agrippa stands out as a masterpiece. How do experts judge this art? They tell us: Literature means “writing that lives on after the conditions that produced it have passed away.” Paul's defense meets this test, triumphantly. The Vision that Kindles Faith, verse 19. The chapter tells of a vision that transformed Saul of Tarsus into Paul the Christian. “Everyone ought to cherish with ' peculiar care the one incident in life which seems to have come from God, as Paul did with the vision on the road to Damascus."’ In England Oliver Cromwell served as a farmer until middle age. Then God called him to be come a leader. If some of us be- j hold no visions, we may not have open eyes of faith. Eliza beth Barrett Browning wrote in “Aurora Leight” of Moses at the . Burning Bush: Earth's crammed with heaven And every common bush afire with God; And only he who sees takes off his shoes; The rest sit around it and pluck black berries. The Power of a Vision. In Chi cago a well-known preacher sat working on his message for the next Sunday. When a nephew asked him what he planned to preach, he quoted the text: “To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world." “Uncle why wras I born?” The minister replied, “I do not know, but if you obey God, he will let you know.” On the way home the lad saw a theater burning. Single-handed he rescued one person after another to the num- I ber of thirteen. At last he suc cumbed. Dying, he was borne to a hospital. With his last breath he whispered to his uncle: “Now I know why I was born. For this cause came I into the world, that I might save those lives.” Months afterward in a distant city, the minister related that incident. After the service a wild-eyed Brass Facts By M. L. Shakespeare. As I think of the housing proj ect again, I am still convinced that the city council did not speak for the people. While the issue has become more or less dormant there is a company being formed in the city for the purpose of building low cost houses. As we look at the names on the roster of this corporation we shall see that many of them are the same ones who were opponents of the federal housing project. So per haps, we shall say that the coun cil spoke for this few. As I travel around through the different sec tions of the city and see people still living in basements, garages and three and four families in some houses, we wonder if it’s a fact that these few are only con cerned about the living condition of the people only if they can make a personal profit? So do you think that the council spoke for the people or for a few? Church of Corf in Christ *****0/1 the 4ir ELDER B. T.

Spring to That Finish Continued from last week. By Jane Parsons Winters Fifth Step: Staining and bleach ing 1. Dark woods need no stain (mahogany, walnut, cherry, rose wood). Linseed oil or wax will darken them sufficiently. 2. Dark wood may be bleached as light as you wish. Use house hold bleaching fluid or commer cial wood bleach. Put on with cotton, let dry, between coats, noting effect. Wipe off with .clear water when you have ob tained the desired degree of light. 3. Light woods may be stained (maple, pine, oak, birch). Use commercial stain, or burnt umber or sienna (regular artist’s oil paint) mixed with turpentine. Apply with brush, wipe off, and apply again until you attain ef fect desired. Remember it will be darker after final finish. Light woods may be left natural, or bleached lighter. Sixth Step: Final Finish (Each different finish gives a beautiful finish depending upon your per sonal taste). 1. Oil finish: Gives a dull satin finish. Apply linseed oil with cloth, rubbing into grain, and wiping off surplus. Let stand several hours, then polish with flannel or woolen cloth. Repeat innumerable times. These pieces may be polished after finishing with linseed oil and turpentine in place of furniture polish. 2. Wax Finish: Soft glossy finish. Use ordinary floor wax. Apply wax with cloth into grain. First across, then with grain. Wipe off surplus. Let stand overnight. Repeat. The oftener and the harder the polishing the better the effect. 3. Shellac Finish: Glowing finish that shows off wood and is especially easy to keep nice look ing. Use shellac, orange, if you desire color, white if you want to keep your breached effect. Thin with alcohol (half and half). Rub with fine steel wool after each application until gloss disappears. Apply at least two coats. Final rubdown use paste made of pumice and linseed oil. This gives a line soft luster. Finish with wax polish. Secret of this finish is to keep your shellac thin, and to polish off all the high gloss. Rcfinishing furniture is hard work, but it's gratifying work that is fun. You'll find yourself haunting every second hand store in town for pieces that will add to the charm of your home. Re finishing is a tonic that is good not only for the house, but for you. So let’s start. Who knows, this spring you may turn up with a priceless antique under that old finish. A Lenten Prayer Eternal God and Father, whose offspring we are, a portion | of whose life is our life, can it be we are so close to thee yet fail to know that thou art near? Can it be that thou are speaking and we fail to hear? Can it be that we give time and thought only to that which forces itself upon us and demands our at tention? If so, we have missed thee. May we attune our thoughts to silence and school our spirits in quietness, so to deepen our awareness of thy presence. Grant that we may know that thou art always near, that we ; are ourselves the chief barrier we confront in our quest for thee —eyes which see not, ears which hear not, hearts which love unworthily. May the beauty of this hour speak to us of the beauty of thy peace, and every human fellowship become an open door into an increasing fellowship with thee. O God. who hast granted us the gift of life, grant us both to will and to do what is pleasing to thee. Teach us to number our days that they may be enriched with worthiness of life and no bility of purpose. Meet us where we are and lead us to a higher I : way. Grant us strength equal to our tasks and tasks that call out I our best. So bring us to lullness of life, for thou art life. Amen. I Dr. DnBois Marks 82nd Anniversary NEW YORK. (ANP). Dr. W. E. B.
