"Therefore* if *UT b®
Christ, he is s new creature:
old things are passed sway;
behold, all things become
new” (II Corinthians 5: 17).
An Englishman who prided himself
in not believing in God once visited
the Fiji Islands. Seeing the natives
on their way to church, with Bibles
in their hands, he sneered, “Haven’t
you heard yet that the Bible is out of
date ? The religion of Christ is a su
perstitious hold-over from the dark
ages.” A simple native teacher re
plied, “It is a good thing for you that
we left our heathenism and cannibal
ism for the peace and comfort to be
found in the Bible and Christianity,
else you would be clubbed, cooked in
a native oven, properly seasoned and
served for dinner.”
The greatest witness we have to
the authenticity of God’s inerrant
Word, the Bible, and more especially
to the Christ of the Bible, is the wit
ness of those whose lives have been
changed because of Him. You have
never heard anyone say, “I have lived
a life devoid of purpose and full of
sin, but I have just read a book on
mathematics, and it has persuaded me
to start anew and live aright.” You
have never heard anyone testify, “I
have just accepted the philosophy of
Plato (or Schopenhauer, or Hume, or
any other philosopher), and it has
given me peace with God, and assur
ance of sins forgiven.” Yet millions
today, unshamed of the Gospel, bear
witness to the fact that new life, more
aboundant life, is to be had through
faith and trust in the Christ of the
Bible.
O soul, and you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see ?
There’s light for a look at the Saviour,
And life more abundant and free.

America’s finest cars? Yes, V-8 engines. And no wonder, for
no other type of car engine available today can beat V-B’s for

There are many things to do in the
garden in June such as take up, divide
and transplant blue flag or bearded
iris, jonquils and daffodils, tulips and
Dutch iris. Also prune, stake and tie
dahlias apd tomatoes —mulch these
two crops if you want to eliminate
some of the problems of cultivation.
Side-dress sweet com with nitrate of
soda when it gets knee-high. Give
your lawn a topdressing of nitrate of
soda just before a rain or water it in
with a hose. And while we are on
the subject of water, during the sum
mer heat most horticultural plants
should be supplied with approximate
ly one inch of water a week either by
rain or irrigation. The quality of
vegetables will be seriously affected
unless they receive sufficient water
at the critical periods.
It is also time in June or early July
| Safe Trash Burner
Here’s how one farmer made~a
safe, but very effective incinerator
for trash and rubbish: He used an
ordinary 50-gallon steel drum, and
cut the top from one end. Four small
holes were punched along the rim at
the bottom of the other end to serve
as a rainwater drain. A half dozen
larger, 1%-inch holes were punched
six to eight inches above the bottom
for a draft It’ll bum rubbish fast*
but he keeps a sheet of metal for
the top to shut off the flames—in
case the fire burns too fiercely.
The Bible is God’s final Word to
you—to you as an individual. The
Christ of the Bible longs to save you,
and invites you through its pages to
come to Him. Why not face it, Your
life outside of Christ is meaningless,
purposeless, a mere existence. Deep
down in your hart you feel an empti

plant collard seed in the spring and
grow large plants, the most tender
collards are those seeded in July and

Green sprouting broccoli has be

withstand some frost but is sometimes
