A teen-age girl managed to make i her way to him in her boat,' and extended her hand. Brown grasp tJ it and, apparently, was saved. However, when another boat arriv ed iust a few minutes later, the teen-ager had lost her grip and T)wnliand had slipped away and! he had disappeared under the' wa-1 ter.. We cite this incident only to re- J mind readers that the swimming season is at hand and that drown ings are now beginning. Despite all the Red Cross work in swim ming training, lessons and so forth, a great many people In this coun try still cannot swim. This Is particularly true among older people, who did not enjoy the easy' access , to swimming pools, 'lakes, and bo forth, because of in adequate . transportation in their younger days. , Therefore, many tionists, are each year frivolous enough to take to the water, in a boat( without adequate safety pre cautions. They should always sit nn o MfAaafoitvnA fwnf.. np wpflr a life-preserver. . It- takes only a j i - j j lew seconds io aruwn, anu me num ber of drownings which occur each year is certainly impressive. . To avoid trouble, swim in safe places, where a life-guard is on duty, keep children well attended, never swim immediately after eat ing a heavy meal, and never over extend yourself in the water to the point of utter exhaustion. If you follow these rules, and use life- preservers in boats, you will prob ably survive the swimming season ill 1956, and we can think of no reason why you shouldn't.

This check to the enemy was followed by the beginning of an ad vance along . the .entire Allied line and is considered a- special contri bution to' the saving of Paris and ' the termination of the First World War. Nearly twenty-four yearo later, in the Pacific Ocean, on June 5th, 1942, . occurred the Battle of Mid way,, This United. States victory stopped the Japanese, effort to ad vance across the ocean, adequately defended American positions from possible enemy attack and inflicted severe losses upon the ambitious and optimistic Japanese': The bat tle was largely one of carrier-based aircraft..; The success of the Bat tie of . Midway is considered the first decisive check of the Japan ese offensive in the Pacific. . ' .

Paul departed from Corinth in peace and Quiet, quite unlike , Jiis departure from some 6f the other cities. From Corinth, Paul went to Ephesus, where he stayed long er than at any other place m which hev-workeoV-thre years. From Ephesus,' he worked ' out into' the surrounding; : areas, v evangelizing whole provinces, yet Luke summar ized that significant ministry tn just a few paragraphs. ' j Ephesus ' was' ' a great commer cial center at thia time and a city of great importance. Here s lo cated the Temple at Diana, recog nized as one of the seven wonders bf the ancient world. It was con structed of white marble, measur ing 342 by 163 feet, and having one hundred columns over fifty-five feet high, each the gift of a, king. EphesuS became' renowned In early Christian circles and, accord ing to tradition, it was the burial place of the apostle John, the au thor Luke and also of Timothy, f.' Paul began his work in EphesuS, as in other cities, with an effort to carry his message to the people of his own race. For three months, Paul preached in the synagogue, telling those . assembled ' of the Kingdom of God, contrasting the purity, reason and holiness of this ideal state with the licentiousness, superstition and evil of heathen be liefs and practices. 1 ' i He made progress in winning souls but,: because of oppositidn from some of the Jews, he finally abandoned the 'synagogue as a place of preaching, and went with his disciples. to the school of Tyran- nus, where he taught for two years. During this period, Paul probably made frequent excursions into the Outlying? areas, for we are told utat all that dwelt in Asia Minor, hef rd the word and various churches were established, seven - of which ire mentioned in Revelation. ( Paul's ministry in Ephesus wa blessed by various manifestations of divine approval, rewarding; the ....... . ' . MR. i I laith oi those wno oeuevea. x nese occurrences led 'sorcerers and ma gicians to try to copy him . arid they sought to work their magical art in the name of Jesus. We have the account of the discomfiture-of two such magicians. Under the in fluenf e of Paul's work, many, of those who practiced these secret arts,-' realized 'their, insufficiency and inadequacy, and staged a great bonfire of valuable books about the magic art. - ' Later, while Paul was a prison er at Home, he wrote a letter to the Christians at Ephesus, exhort ing them to live a life worthy! of a Christian, r The first three chap ters of the letter are doctrinal, dealing with . the Christian truth, while the last three chapters , are practical, dealing with the Chris tian life, wherein the virtues of purity and holiness 'are emphasis ed. ' So successful was Paul in his ministry that he' aroused the seri ous opposition of one Demetrius, a silversmith, who inflamed the members of his craft against Paul. He argued that if Paul were per mitted to continue to preach, no! only would their livelihood be en dangered, but the people's belief in the Godddess Diana and simi lar gods would be undermined and destroyed. This was an instance of true re ligion . hurting I selfish ' business. Thoroughly aroused by Demetrius, a mob seized two of Paul's friends and a great uproar resulted, which was only quieted by a city official, who reminded the mob that the courts were open to them for any just grievances, and that fhef would be held responsible for any disturbance of the peace. ' It - is still true that when the gospel hurts rested Interests1,". 6r 'hits the pockefbook nerve, that the bitterest opposition is encountered. To too many, money is god.
