"Be ye kind *>ne to another ") THIS IS our last lesson on the sermon on the Mount. In this ser mon Jesus lays down the rules of Christian conduct Our lesson be - gins by showing the foolishness of collecting riches on earth, of t>U* ing up money and other treasures 'that may be atulen ui which spoil Money is good in Itself It Is nec essary to carry on the business of the world. We need some, and It la not unwise to save some for emer gencies. Christ would not -object * even to a man becoming jrlefa If he would not neglect his spiritual seeds. You may bury great wealth In the ground or put It in a bank and it may disappear. Every day, almost, in the paper one reads of thieves who dig up gold or cheat a man out of money he has been saving Jt he have no real char* aether. Is a miser, his life may be ruined, or he may think so. But If he has a strong character, hat faith and hope and Itvee as a kind* ly. -good" man among his neigh bors and friends, he doe* not de spair His REAL health la Intact He cart forget the riches he has lost and live on. with faith In his future Treasure In Heaven" ^ His real treasure is "laid up In heaven." where -neither moth ,'doth corrupt, and where thieves <k> not break through and steal** "Therefore 1 say unto you. Take no thought for your Ufe. what ye Shall eat. or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the Ufe more than meat aJRT the body than raiment?** He spoke of the birds who sow not neither do they reap. ' yet they are cared for He speaks of'the lilies of the field so beauti ful but they "neither toil nor spin." as you cannot add one bit I to your own stature by worrying about it why should you fret T , Jesus did not mean that we should not think of our physldal necessities and provide for them to the best of our ability, but that we should have faith while doing jour best "Judge not that ye be not [judged." Most of us recognise a bad character from a good one in the people with whom we come In contact but we need not judge the bad ones harshly. Remember ing our own faults, we should try to understaand why peoole grow no to be what we can "undesir able" characters. The wrong home environment brd companions, jnany things incline people to I wrong living standards. How would we have been If condition^ had been the same for us as for them? Trying to understand and to help. If possible. Is the attitude we should take toward them. Pmyer important Jesus stresses the importance of prayer? of constant contact with "Our Pather which art in heaven." to keep our faith strong and our actions humble ? in other yorda to help us keep In tha Right Road. No parent would. If his child asked for bread, hand him a stone, or if he asked for Ash would give him a serpent said Jesus. "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your chil dren. how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things lo them that ask him?" It seems that the whole sermon It summed up tn the words. "Therefore all things whatsoever would that men should do to you. do ye even so to them: for .this Is the law and the prophets." "Enter ye Ui at the strait gate: for wide Is the gate, and broad Is the way. that leadeth to destruc tion. and many there be which go In thereat; "Because strait la the gate, and ?arrow la the way. which leadeth! onto life, and few there be that ted It" The narrow way may not seem so pleasant, but It is the safe way that leads to where we want to ga It leads to true joy and happy, satisfying life we are warned against "false prophets" who come to us in "sheep's clothing." meaning with pleasing personalities We shall know them by their work* Their actions win show us the true prophets from these false ones. "Whosoever heareth these say ings of mine." Jesus said, "and do eth them. 1 will liken him unto a wise man which built his house upon a rock." When storms came and beat upon that house it stood firm. Those who heard His words and heedeth them not were likened to a man who built his house on the sand, so that when the rains and floods came they destroyed that house. When Jesus ended these sayings people were astonished because He spoke with such authority He spoke with authority be cause He knew life and what is worthwhile tn it. He loved peo ple and tried to help them and to point out wavs which would bring them X>y and peace instead of un happlness and strife. He so loved the world that He was willing, not only to preach, but to give up His own life for It. ?

"Mileage Rationing Records" Needed All operators of passenger cars with basic "A" ration must have ''mileage rationing records" to be eligible to apply for other gasoline rations, the Office of Price Administration points out. Without this important record no motorist may be issued a "B" or "C" supplemental ration. In the re cent re- registration of the nation's 23,000,000 basic "A" ration holders, each registrant was issued one of the mileage record forms. The form re places the old tire rationing record, on which was kept a list of issued gas oline rations. In cases where a motor ist was not issued a mileage rationing record or had his lost or destroyed, he should immediately apply to his local board for a duplicate, OPA states. V* Mail Use Urged By Army And Navy The Army and Navy are asking all .Ch ilians to make greater use of V Mail in writing to service men this year as a direct help in conserving critically needed transport space and as a means to providing fighting men with more frequent and faster com- j munication from home. Great stress I is placed by military officials on the value to soldiers and sailors of fre quent letters, which is more possible by the use of V-Mail. The fact that t:\ere are more men overseas disallows of the consistent sending of regular mail by airplane and this type ,jf , mail is frequently held up for lack of space, the military authorities say. The V-mail filming process as sures correspondents of privacy of Contents, military postal officials point out.
