All reservations made freel Bible Comment: We Often Forget To Follow Jesus In Family Life JT is interesting to see how much in the ministry of Jesus is associated with homes and families. Jes"us, who in contrast with John the Baptist, described Him self as having come eating and drinking, would seem to have accepted freely invitations to various homes. j He was at the marriage in' Cana of Galilee, and evidently; had close contact with Peter's! family. j After the famous incident of the little man climbing a tree to see Him, He went home with Zacchaeus. He was the guest of the Phari see, who invited Him to the home " where the "woman who was in the city, a sinner," with appar ently an evil reputation, washed His feet with her tears and dried them with her hair. This occasioned His striking rebuke to the Pharisee, who for some reason had invited Him in, but had failed in the usual cour tesies to a guest. But the home and family most intimately associated with Jesus was in Bethany, where Lazarus lived with his sisters, Mary and Martha. . These and similar incidents suggest that there were probably many unrecorded occasions of the contacts of Jesus with homes and families. Parental authority and disci pline were probably greater de termining factors for all the fam ily than they are today. Possibly the faith and zeal of the head of the .family were not so evident in its members, but of that we have no means of know ing. What we do know is that there is a great lack of family religion today. Are the parents, the schools or the children themselves respon sible? Whatever factor is responsible, there definitely is a lack of fam ily religion where one might most expect to find it in the home. Sunday Masses 7:30 and 9:30 a. m. Weekday Masses 7:15 and 8:00 a. m.

Ducks Marked to Study Migration Some Nebraskans may think the high cost of living has caught up with the wild duck population when they see some that are actually "in the red." Some strange looking ducks may be observed this summer and spring as the Florida Game Commission colored over 500 bluewing teal with red dye, in 8-12 a.m. 4-7 p.m. Groceries - Meat - Fresh Vegetables Garden Plants - Flowers 437 Main Sr. These three men -and their thousands of team-mates are working for your wife . . .' and for you. It's their business to see that nat-' ural gas is always ready to do the many house hold jobs that only gas can do so well. The key to a dependable, adequate supply of this superior fuel is the never-ending search for additional reserves. It takes tremendous investments of money and manpower to lo cate new supplies of natural gas. Often, it's a back-breaking, heart-breakjng, bankroll breaking undertaking. But the natural gas industry will continue to locate new fields so long as the industry has the incentive to find and produce, transport and distribute this finest of all fuels. ompcuii j an attempt to gain information I on the spring migration flight i and nesting areas of these birds. The red dye is very conspicous, especially on the under surface ' of the wings. Anyone seeing any such birds is requested to notify the Nebraska Game, Forestation and Parks Commission, State House, Lincoln, and tell when and where they sighted them. This information will be relayed to the Florida Game Commis sion.
