Today the need is greater than ever before. Our offensives in Europe and the Pacific have greatly increased mili tary requirements for supplies and equipment made of pulpwood or packed in paper or paperboard made of pulpwood. It has become an A-1 war material. System as an essential occupation. With a Post-War Future It’s a Wartime Job Pulpwood cutting has been recog nized by the War Manpower Com mission and the Selective Service But pulpwood production is differ ent from most war industries. It will continue on the same scale after the war. Cut pulpwood today because it is both patriotic and profitable. Your county agent, forester, or mill buyer will tell you about the peak wartime prices being paid for it.

Since the office of the mlnletoy is of dlTlne appointment. It de serves the prayerful support and reverent respect of all. To this end, those who expect to enter the office should prepare themselves in every -way possible tor the Im portant service they are to render. Jesns did not begin his formal public ministry until he vras ap proximately thirty years of age. Those who would go out today as pastors and evangelists will do well to tarry until they are proper ly prepared and endued with power from on high! A SPIRITUAL 8KRVIUE I Samuel 2:09, tM>, 85 The spiritual character of the service to be rendered by the min ister is clearly set forth in verses 29, 30, and 35 of our lesson text. God is rebuking Ell for his failure to restrain his sons with refer ence to the sacrifices and offerings of the people. In yielding to his sons and In condoning their glut tony and idolatry, he had violated the commandments of God. It was utterly impossible for Ell to car ry on, as one of God’s chosen ser vants, and to render a distinctly spiritual service, when he was yielding to sins on the part of those of his household. There fore. God’s prophet reminded Eli that the priestnood would be tak en from his family and that his family would suffer the conse quences of their gross misdeeds. There is only one standard for the children of God—the stand ard that is to be followed by min ister and people alike—it does re main that the minister always oc cupied a unique position by virtue of his office. His influence there fore is bound to count for more than that of the average man. Both he, and of necessity, his family are constantly in the lime light. They are on that part of the stage where the most Import ant section Is progressing In the realm of God’s kingdom here on earth. Try as they may, they can never deliver themselves com pletely from the conspicuous game of the spectators. That is one of the prices that has to be paid by those who are in any way asso ciated with the ministerial office. The minister needs to remember constantly that his office is a dis tinctly spiritual one. Whatever he does, wherever he goes, what ever he says, he is to have as his ultimate objective the advance ment of God’s kingdom on earth. If that is his mission, then, that is also, in a measure, the mission of his family—those intimates who are associated with him In the home. Whatever his family does, in a derogatory way, with refer ence to the kingdom of God, it will reflect upon him. It may be said that Eli was not responsible for the conduct of his sons. Perhaps he wasn’t and perhaps he was. At any rate, God evidently felt that he had failed at some point in his rela'iionship with his sons, evidently, in some measure, he had come short of his best in disciplin ing them. THE FRUITS OF FAILUBE I Samuel 4:1^18 Our lesson closes with the tragic picture of the fruits of failure in the ministerial office. Ell had manifestly failed to magnify the office of high priest, as Ood had expected of him. He had honored his sons above God.
