Clear Windshield Any motorist who blinds himself with wind shield stickers, fox tails, and other useless gad gets is betting his liie am: he is also b tting that his car will fail ii> mecluinical inspection ! test. \\ hen 3 011 take \ ur car to one of t!ie State s 40 mechanical inspection Janes sometime th:s year, one of the requirements is that the wind shield must be completely' unobsvured. According to the Manual of Motor \ ehi< !t Mechanical Inspection Requirements, "all ve- \ hides originally equipped w;ill approved safety glass may not in this respei t be altered. Wind shield shall be completely' clear of posters, stick- - ers, or other nontransparent materials excep' as required by law and shall be free from breaks, cracks, or discoloration, which will im pair the driver s visicn or in any way create a hazard.' ] > Now, motorist, if you have an older model i " car or truck, which was not originally built with a safety glass windshield, don't become alarm- '' ed. Your car will still pass the test provided it meets all other requirements. However, if it was u originally built with safety glass, then it must ;; still have it. j j If your windshield is broken or cracked, and is pasted together with non-transparent adhe- 1 sive tape, better do something about it. For ' such materials obscure the view of the driver. [ ii and may keep him from seeing vehicles ap- j " proaching from the side. If your windshield has , a slight crack in it. and you don't want to buy a 1 new one, make sure to purchase some trans- S parent tape, so this particular part of the vehicle will* pass the test. Necessary For Safety You bet your life when you drive without a ? windshield wiper. Ycur State Department of "a Motor \ ehicles considers the windshield wiper a so important to safe driving that they are mak- n ing it one of the requirements fcr passing the c inspection test, which your car or truck must 1 take this year. The Manual of Motor Vehicle Mechanical Inspecticn Requirements states that "all motor vehicles having a windshield shall be equipped with at least one windshield wiper in good working order for cleaning rain, snow, or other 3 moisture from the windshield, so as to provide clear vision for the driver. All such devices shall be so constructed and installed as t be operated or controlled by the driver. All motor vehicles ^ originally equipped with dual windshield wiper may not in this respect be altered and both are subject to the above standards. 1 here are the requirements, motorists! It's a up to you to see that your car passes the test. If Smart housewives use pressure cooking because it seals in more flavor. In that same way Fleetwood's SupAromatized roast seals more flavor into fine coffees. This special process? developed through years of testing cooks coffee beans right in their own juices to give you a bonus of flavor and aroma in every pound. Note the rich, even color in your next pound of Fleetwood. Then, try a cup and enjoy coffee mt the peak of rich, delicious flavor. Just taste what a difference there it in SupAronatized coffee!

SPEAKS J 1 W nffl By LOUIE D NEWTON D 0 J SCRIPTURE: E7fkiel 1?4: 39:1-9. DEVOTIONAL READING: Psalms 137 U Prophet Among Exiles Lesson for April 4, 1948 ^p.US quarter we study the Cap *? livity and Return of the Jevs, using the Books of Ezekiel, Daniel, Ezra. Nehemiah, Esther, Hag;;u, Zeeharinh and Ma lachi. Sunday's les son is found in F 'e kul 1-4 and 88:1-9. It would be well for us to read again the history of this most intoreftins , man Ezekiel? how he came to be among the cap tives by the river Chebar. He is one of the most attrac tive personalities in Dr. Newton me uiu iesiament ? a man 01 sur- i ? passing culture and charm? and yet l enabled to "sit where they sat." ? ? ? \ MESSENGER OF GOD f^Zl 1KIEL could never have ad apt ed himself to the role of minis tering to the captive slaves apart i from the knowledge that he was the ( messenger of God ? the messenger | of God's hope to broken, beaten souls. , God spoke to his people through Ezekiel. He speaks to his people today through chosen messengers ? parents, teachers, the Bible, the Holy Spirit. God may be speak ing to you today. * * ? HEAR YE THE \VORI> EZEKIEL'S approach to the Jews in captivity was by the author- t ity of God's direct message to them i through him. Ezekiel was faithful < to God's appointment and mission. He knew that what he had to say to the Jews meant their hope of re lease and return. * He studied their plight. He N studied their mood. And then he s spoke to them. But not only did ? he speak to them, telling them what God wanted them to know, but he moved ^mong them. He ' loved them. . He had God's message, and he \ went in God's mood of compassion. ? We cannot help people until we un derstand them and love them. ? ? ? * GOD S WATCHMAN EZEKIEL reminded the people that he had been sent from God as a watchman, and he told them what terrible responsibility was upon him in warning them to re pent and return unto God. Read Eze kiel 33:1-9. If the watchman faithfully warns the people, and they refuse to heed the warning, their blood * will not be on his hands; but if he fail to warn the people, their blood will be on his hands. Here is a lesson for every teacher and ? preacher and parent today. And in this same 33rd chapter, Ezekiel goes on to declare God's attitude toward all sinners. "Say unto them. As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live ?turn ye, turn ye from your evil j ways; for why will ye die?" ? ? ? A WATCHMAN UNTO EXILES ?<CON of man, I have made thee ^ a watchman unto the house j of Israel," Ezekiel 3:17. This was the explicit commission of God to Ezekiel. And grandly did i Ezekiel accept and execute to the limit of his ability that commission. The Jews were far from their be- i loved home. They were driven by hard masters. They could not sing the song of the Lord in a strange | land. They had hanged their harps on the willow trees. With a sensitive soul, Ezekiel I comes to them with the word of hope. He reminds them of the goodness and mercy of Jehovah to their fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. He lifts their droop ing spirits with clear and ringing j , words of promise. He pleads with ! them to confess their sins and j claim the pardoning mercy of a | 1 loving God. He used numerous means of gain- ( ing their attention ? symbols of their former communion with God Patiently he traced the dealings of God with them and their fathers 1 before them. They listened, and all who heed ed the pleas of the faithful watch- ( man were saved and restored to j faith in the goodness and mercy of God. We, too, are watchmen among ' exiles. Let us learn the high art of ! Ezekiel in our ministry as watch- 1 man.
