Continuing our study of "un heralded Bible characters," we take tor our study this week a consideration of the characteris tics of Bezalel, a master crafts man. It is in- connection with the building of the Tabernacle that Us name is mentioned. After recording the giving of the Ten Commandment* and various other laws to Moaes by Jehovah cm Mt. Sinai, the book of Ixodui list* directions con cerning the making of the ark and the tabernacle and its con tents, including the garments of the priests. Then it tells of the appointment of a man, named Bezalel and his assistant, Oho liab, to have charge of this work It M?mn that this Bezalel was a mast exceptional man. His en-' dowments are described in vers es 3-4 of our text. He was a man ' of good, practical common sense. (or wisdom in the Hebrew sense meant just that. He wm not a visionary ? he had the vision and the ability to put his vision into action or being. He had know ledge of his craft and, in addi tion to this, he had a superb skill in actual workmanship. He waj a good executive, also, for he had many men working under his direction to accomplish the many tasks which had been assigned to him. Our text says he worked with "wise-hearted" men and what a joy that must have been to him, to work with men to whom their work was a pleasure and who took pride in its accomplishment. They work ed together, wholeheartedly and willingly, for they were making the dwelling-place of Jehovah ind their handiwork would make that place a worthy place for the worship of their God.

Surely, thi* must have been a happy time lor Be zalel and his workers. Human minds, inspired by God, had planned, human hands had wrought and the work had been carried on in a great spirit of in spired sacrifice and skilL Upon its dedication, the spirit of God filled the Tabernacle with his glory. Thus God honored the faithful toil of Bezalel and his workmen. Albert W. Palmer asks: "What is the difference between being a real artist and just a person who has an artistic temper ment?" He answers: "Hard work! Yet there is yet another, element, unpredictable, evanescent, mysti cal, and yet absolutely essential to the highest artistry. It is that touch of divine fire which we call "inspiration." Is your work important- Be zalel and Oholiab seemed to be lieve that their work was import ant ? the most important in the world to them. Channing Pol lock once declared that any job well done is important and that few of us understand what a big job a little job may be. He said: "Take interest and pride in your work! The fellow with a future isn't often the one who scorns what he is doing at present. He's the man who thinks his job is important, and so goes on to ever more important jobs." John Ovenham reminds us; "A Toiler with his hands was God's own Son; Like his, to him be all thy work well done. None so forlorn as he that hath no work, None so abject as he that work doth shirk." T ruman One of 7 Who Inherited No. 1 Post Harry S. Truman is one of sev en vice-presidents who stepped into the White House on a Presi dent's death. Of the six others four merely filled out their party terms in office. The two who went on to serve an additional term on their own were the most recent in history. The six were John Tyler, Mil lard Filmore, Andrew Johnson, Chester A. Arthur, Theodore Roosevelt and Calvin Coolidge. Tyler became president in 1841, when William Henry Har rison died after having been pres ident for only a month. Tyler's [tenure was marked by constant bickering with Congress, and while he was renominated by an irregular Democratic convention in May 1844, he withdrew from the race the following August. Filmore, who _ went into the White House in '1950 when Zach ary Taylor died, was turned down for the nomination by the Whigs in 1852. Four years later the Know-Nothing party named him and the Whig Party endorsed him. He carried only one state. /S YOUR RADIO * oi/i cof d?| If IT IS ?

He became chief executive when Lincoln was assasinated in 1889, and re sulting feuds with Congress led to House impeachment proceed ings against him. He was acquit ted, but in 1888 his party denied him renomination. Arthur succeeded the assassina ted James A. Garfield in 1881 and histrian3 now credit him with having done an able Job. But when he tried for the Republican nomination in 1884 he was pass ed over for James G. Blaine. Theodore Roosevelt did better. He served three and a half years after' President McKinley was shot in 1901, and" then was re nominated and re-elected for four years on his own in 1904. In 1012, he tried for the Republican!, nomination, and when he failed, I he started his own Bull Moose party and ran for the office. He was unsuccessful, however. Coolidge served out Warren G.
