His attentive congre gation that gathered for his ser vice was filled the glorious thoughts endowed with the spirit i of God that fell from his lips. J Man must stand up for Jesus al- j ways and not whether he is prais. i ed or not. Man must learn to look up to Jesus always and not when troubles, trials and tribulations "beset him.

RAINES Mrs. Jeanie English, Reported ; Todayy was set aside as Men’s ; Day. The Male chorus was hand somely attired in dark trousers, white shirts and dark ties. They sang beautifully. Rev, B. Davis an acquaintance of our minister since boyhood, de livered the sermon. He spoke to us from the Acts 11:24-26 verses. Subject: Church Membership doe not identify one as a Christain. One may belong to a church and not be a Christain. Christian life mean.} pne whose conduct and teachings remind us of Jesus. To have your name on the Church Roll and Christianity does not have synonymous meaning. It isn’t important how long one has belonged to a church, but it is important that he proves his Christianity by the way he lives his life. Without the love of God we’re nothing. A Christian is one who responds tothe invitation of Christ. To be a Christian,,we must turn away from sin and love good A Christian consecrates his money, himself and talent to God. We were bblessed with another inspiring sermon. Mrs. Precious Smith, of Okla homa City, Okla. joined our mem bership this morning. There were several visitors in our service this morning. Among them were Mr. T. N, Watson, ex ecutive Sec’y of the Colored Methodist Center in Memphis, Tenn., who gave an informative talk in our church at 4 p. m. Let us pray for the ill and shut | ins. REVOLUTIONARY PRINTING OF PAPERS MAY END PLATES Development of a revolutionary newspaper printing method was announced Tuesday by the Will iam J. Higgins Company. The idea is to eliminate the use of automatic typesetting mach ines, matrices and stereotype plates. Entire pages are printed direct ly from a single sheet of engrav ed magnesium which weighs less than a pound. This compares to 46 pounds for a conventional ster. otype plate. Composition of body type is done proportional-spacing type writers. John and Farwell Peery | of tjhe company said machines have been developed to permit head-setting by the same method. “The'process completely changes the composing room as it exists today,” their announcement said. “The copy goes directly from the typewriters to the make-up boards and from there into proof-reading. Composition errors are, bythe photographic nature of the process, completely elimi nated.” Reach, was conducted in the company’s Ocala (Fla.) plant. The process has been used for several months in publication of the Leesburg (Fla.) Commerical Ledger, 12-page weekly paper. The Perrys .executive officers of the Western Newspaper Union, said installations of the pocess would be undertaken by the Hig gins Company “as soon as pro duction is completed on necessary composition and engraving machinery.” new process was developed “be cause of the increasing prohibit ive mechanical costs in the news paper production field.” The magnesium engraving pro cess, they said, “permits use of an unlimited number of pictures at no additional cost. The qquality of these pictures is the finest ob tainable because the original en garving is the printing plates.

FACING NATIONAL PERILS j LESSON TEXT—II Kings 18:5-7, 33-37; ' 20:12-17 MEMORY SELECTION — For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One oI Israel; la returning and rest shall ya be saved; la quietness and In confidence shall be your strength.—Isaiah 30:15. Perilous times bad come upon the southern part of the divided king dom known as Judah. Thera had been a period of outward prosperity under King Uzzlah, but the inward decay of the people made It an empty thing. Judah, like Israel, was on the downward path which was to lead to ultimate captivity and judgment The occasional reign of good king* seemed to stem the tide a bit; Id fact the great king of whom we study today. Hezeklah, gave Judah a “fresh lease on Life and enabled her to outlive her sister kingdom by nearly a century and a half." Judah experienced a red revival of faith in God under Hezeklah (II Kings 18:4-6; II Chron. 80:81). The temple was cleansed, the priesthood renewed and reconsecrated, and the great feast of the Passoverjcept I once more. This undoubtedly ex« ! plains the new life which earns to Judah in an hour when the nation seemed about to disintegrate. 1. The Enemy's Threat (19:5, 6). For the background here on^ must read the previous chapter., Hezeklah, having tried to throw off the yoke of Assyria, had seen Se*-i nacherib and his armies sweep oven the land. Thinking to s?op him and' to save Jerusalem, he sent a great* gilt amounting in vaiue to millions of dollars. The gift was accepted, and then Sennacherib treacherously seiged Jerusalem Rabshakeh. Sennacherib’s mes-( senger to Hezekiah. not only threat-! ened the nation, but blasphemously, denied the power of God. Such was) the awful situation Hezeklah faced as he went to the temple, and sent trusted servants to inquire of Isaiah what he ought to do. The response was prompt andj definite. We may learn from this In cident that in an hour of confusion! and danger it is well to take time to) i ^.nd out what the Lord has to sa.vl about things. He knows what to do! IL The Lord’s Answer (19:7, 32 37). God has only to blow on th« mighty, blustering moriarchs of this iworld and they come to their end, f definitely and conclusively. The 1 "blast” of the Lord (v. 7) is enough to care for thatl And remember, he Is still ready to act on behalf of his I people I On the plains of Philistia the mighty -host of Assyria met the1 angel of the Lord, and they never] awoke from their sleep. The loss of 185,000 men sent Sennacherib home to Nineveh broken and fearful, and there he met his own violent death. *How much we peed the encour agement of such ah event as this in our own day when the mighty of this earth seem to speak so boldly and confidently against the name of the Lord. His children must often (hear the blasphemous threats of un believer^ and bear the burden of their scorn. - Let us remember that we do s'erve a God who can with a glance of his eyes throw into confusion all the enemies of his mighty name. Let us be strong to fight the victori ous battle in his name! Hezekiah knew the sweetness of victory as he trusted in the Lord. If* we could only rest the matter there. But the weakness of the flesh comes to the fore as we seet^ ID. The King's Folly (201:12-17). Babylon, one of the great Gentile enemies ot Assyria, wanted to cul tivate the friendship of Hezekiah, so an embassy was sent to express joy at his recovery from a serious ill ness. It was the Lord who had. healed him (see 20:1-11) in' a tftiracukras way, but now Hezeklahdid the fool ish thing of trying to cultivate the help of men. To impress these possible allies from Babylon, he showed them all his wealth. He evidently wanted them to return to their ruler with a story of the might' and glory of Judah. t Poor Hezefciah! He only made a fool of himself.- prepared the way for the ultimate taking of his pos sessions and his people by the Baby lonians.

S. aid to Europe, to cost about $25,000,000,000 is in trouble before it starts,” says the United States News. ‘'President Truman’s Cabinet is sharply divided on the plan. Congress is inclined to be cool toward it, Europe wants and badly needs the dollars, but may not like the conditions to be at tached to any new dollar grants.” The economics of th' problem are bleak to an extreme. This country is the only important pro ducer of the goods Europe must have for economic rehabilitation, no less than for immediate susten ance. Those goods must be paid for with dollars. However, foreign countries are earning only 38 per. cent of the dollars they are spend ing. The loans we have already [ made are running out at an alarming rate, and will be ex hausted, in most cases, in less than a year. The export-import situation tells the story in another way. Our exports abroad amount to around $20, 000 ,000 ,000 a year. Our imports from abroad, on the other hand, arel less than $8,000, 000,000 a year. That means, from the foreign point of view, an an nual deficit of nearly $12,000, 000, 000 a year. A number of countries notably Britain, are attempting to step up their export product ion in order to make their balance of trade less unfavorable, and to maintain their dollar credits as long as possible. But these effects have not borne much fruit, and no great improvement can logically be expected in the near future. Foreign countries have invest, ments in this country, in secur ities, industrial properties, etc. However, according to the U. S. News, if all long-term :..eign in vestments of this nature were liq uidated, Europe'-, pocketbook would be fattened by only $8,COO, 000,000 enough lo calance the m. port-export scale for a mere eight months. Furthermore, these assets are unevenly distributed. The great bulk of them belong to Eng" land, and some of the neediest countries have little or nothing. It will be a long time before anyone knows just how far the United States will go in under writing European recovery. But it does seem certain that the policy will not be of ai blank-check character and that firm strings will be attached to future loans and gifts and money so far ad vanced and in some cases, have been more interested in building political organizations than in trying to put their countries on their economic feet. Public seems Public opinion' seems all in favor of stopping that. The Marshall Plan obviously is based in part on such considerat ions. It says, in effect, that Eur opean rehabilitation is the duty of Europe, and that aid from us can be given only if all the coun tries involved cooperate to the limit. It thus marks an effort to break down geographical, political and ethnological barriers to the recovery of the continent. It is possible to draw parallels between the present and the per iod following World'War 1, when we made large loans to Europe which were repaid only in part. But there is this enormous differ ence—the sums involved then were much smaller, and the United States had a relatively in significant tax and national debt problem at home. On top of that, there was no struggle for power such as that which is being car ried on between the United States and the Soviet Union today. The present European problem is com. plicated byy the most important military anddiplomatic considerta !ons. Whilewe are Helping the rest of the world, self-preservat ion demands that we prepare for any conceivable future contin gency—including that of war. Is American industry rolling in money? On the basis of the bare statistics a “yes” answer to that would seem justified. Howevre, as a Newsweek survey recently pointed out, there is another side to the picture. The magazine said: "The hard-to-believ fact was that business, despite record profits, hard pressed for functa.” The reason for that is the enor mous sums industry has been ■pdneiag few new and better pro duction facilities. Lmijt yuar, for example, irfTuatry pprfcfits totaled 512,500,000,000. But in the «ann» y^ar industry spent 512.000,900, 090 for ndw plants and equipment, plus 5^509.008,000 for inventories plus 55,000.009,000 in dividend* As a rduult ©ash oh hand has de clined.
