The TV A, which, acordlng to the United States district nglneer, can generate electricity at a ost of 4.33 mills a kilowatt-hour and ransmit it 250 miles for 1.274 mills a Lilowatt-hour (based on a GO per cent nad factor; should the factor drop to >0 per cent, the transmission cost rould double), estimates that it can ell power wholesale to municipalities t seven mills a kilowatt-hour. These n turn can retail it at three cents for he first block of the rate, two cents or the second, then one cent and then our mills. For normal residential use his would be about 2% cents per kiloratt-hour. For a fully-electrified mine, using 2.G00 kilowatt-hours a ear, it would be only about seven nills. Some of the municipal plants in he area have balked at contracting to up ply service at such rates, claiming hat they cannot break even. New Light Bills Please. Much publicity has been given the nils for the first month of service liter the city of Tupelo, Miss., began laying electricity wholesale from the IT A on March 1. 1034. Among the r.Miiii|iira viicu nne uiui ui i\w?l "...o.. who paid $210.25 for 6.5S0 kllova it-hours In January, and, under the lew rate were able to buy 10,210 kilowatt-hours In March for $145.38; the ilcl/ornn Ice Cream company, who used learly 21 j>er cent more electricity In Harch than In January, yet paid a bill pproximately $36 less In March;and the I'lipelo Cotton Mill, which paid $1,140.40 in March for 26 per cent more urrent than it paid $3,181.33 for in fanuary. Residential customers were pleased with similar slashes in their bills. According to Dr. Arthur E. Morgan, ngineer, college president and educaor, who Is the chairman of the board f three directors appointed to manage he TV A projects, the rates are "conidered sufficiently low to constitute an ccnomically feasible and desirable iroject whenever the demand is such hat the market Is present which will hsorb such large quantities over the iours of the day."

I GOLDEN TEXT?For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup. ye ! do shew the Lord's death till he come, j , ?I Corinthians 11:26. PRIMARY TOPIC?The Supper Jesus , Gave His Friends. JUNIOR TOPIC?How the Lord's Supper Began. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPI IC?Why Observe the Lord's Supper? YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC?Realizing Christ's Presence in the j Srpper. By the Lord's Supper here Is meant i the br?ad and the wine used as etn blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Some Christians think of the Lord's Supper as a meal of fellowship eaten before | , the Institution of the bread and the cup. To them it means the agape or love-feast which was practiced in the early church. Such would prefer to call this the Communion Instead of the Lord's Supper. With this understanding, we can enter into the real understanding and blessing of the ordinance. I. The Institution of (v. 23). I. The time. It was on tlie night of the betrayal of the Lord Jesus, after the betrayer had been announced. 12. Circumstances of (Matt 20:20). It was in connection with the eating of the Passover. At the command of Jesus the disciples made ready the Passover, and while they were eating Jesus took bread, blessed It, and gave It to thetu. 3. The elements used. Bread? doubtless common bread of the Pass- ; over feast. The Cup?the fruit of the vine. II. The Significance of (vv. 24-20 Cf. Matt 20:20-28). Jesus took natural and literal elements and mi de theui to be symbols of bis own body and blood. 1. it Is a memorial of the Lord (Lk. 22:19). When Jesus Christ left the' world, he left the bread and the cup for the disciples, by which to remember I him. 2. To show the Lord's sacrlticiul j death (v. 2G). He did not die as a hero, or as an e.ample of unselfish de- i votlon, but as a substitutionary ran- i sow on the cros. he made satisfaction ' for our sins. 3. It is a guaranty that our sins are forgiven (Rom. 4:25). "It was the signet of the Son of Cod attached to re- ! demption." 4. It symbolize* the believer's reeon- 1 tlon of Christ (1 Oor. 10:1(5). lie thereby participates in the body and blood | of Christ becoming a member of his i ; body. 5. It has a forward look to a com- j pleted redemption (v. 2C). Wlieu faith i in Christ is exercised, redemption be- J gins, and its completion will take place at the coming of Christ (1 Thess. 4:10, ! i 17). The bread and the cup constitute ' the keepsake of the Lord until he re- i turns. III. Qualifications for Participation In the Lord's Supper (vv. 27-29). i 1. A proper apprehension of its i meaning (v. 27). Bating and drinking ' unworthily primarily refers not to the j demerit of the communicant, but to his i failure to grasp the meaning and Im- I porta nee of the ordinance. Only regenerated persons can discern the Lord's body. Faith In the integrity of j Christ's person and work is essential. ! Anyone who does not believe In the absolute deity of Christ and his vlcnrlI ous atonement is an unworthy corarau| nicant. 2. Church membership (1 Cor. 11:18i 22). The Lord's body is the church, which Is composed of regenerated men i and women united to Jesus Christ as i head, and to each other as members I of that body, by the Holy Spirit. 3. An orderly walk. Conduct which disqualifies for participation in the Lord's supper: a. Immorality (1 Cor. 5:1-13). It Is most perilous for one who Is guilty of I immorality to approach the Lord's taI ble (v. 30). Sickness and death are I often visited upon such. ! b. Heresy (Titus 3:10; 1 John 4:2, 3). This means that one who holds false doctrine Is disqualified for participation In the communion. c. A Schismatic (Rom. 16:17). The one who stirs up party strife, who causes divisions in the church, should be excluded from the lord's tabie. IV. Penalty for Failure to Discern the Lord's Body (vv. 30-34). Approaching the I?ord's table unworthily Issues In the visitation of sick ness and death upon the individual. This seems to be plainly the meaning of "weak and sickly among you, and many sleep." This explains the illness of many Christians. The way to escape the judgment is to judge our selves.
