Grover Jamison JEWELER Legion Booklet On Conservation Of Resources By, JOHN WA&ILIK, JR., Commander At the national convention in Lew Angeles last .September,' the American Legion passed a. resolu tion calling for cooperation with the federal and state governments in conservation work as part of the Legkm's national, program. Ac-' cordingly, the booklet "Conserva tion of National Resources" has been prepared to serve as. a guide lor all departments and posts. The booklet is an educational treatise on the various aspects of forest fire prevention and conser vation in general. It has been pre pared to acquaint Legionaires with the problems which confront their nation, also to serve as a guide for departments and posts to par ticipate in cooperative projects with authorized agencies to help solve their problems. - ' The following program lias been adopted : Forest Resources: In cooperation with the nearest representatives of the federal for est service, national park service and state conservation agencies of the several states to determine the lines of action most needed 'to promote development of the na tion's forest resources of reforesta tion and conservation. Such lines of action will vary by localities and will include such items as:( a. Planned cooperation with local fire control officer in 1. Enforcement of existing laws governing the use of fire; in woods. 2. Working for ' enactment of improved state and county fire laws and ordinances. 3. Distribution of literature on fire control and con servation. ' 4. Fire prevention patrol in times and places of acute danger in cooperation with constituted authorities. 5. Policing of zones under supervision of constituted authorities in which unex pected fires occur through incendiarisin. 6. Organization of volunteer .. companies to participate in suppression of forest fires. b. Arrangements . for Legion sponsored presentation to Leg ion posts, schools and other civic groups of motion pictures, exhibits and lectures pertain ing to fire control and other conservation activities. c. Participation in parades, cere monies, exercises and other public demonstrations further ing fire prevention and con servation. (Address State Con servation Department; Region al Forester of your region or Forest Supervisor, nearest you or Park Superintendent.) d. Cooperate with local agencies in framing and executing plans for special forest recreational projects and to arrange for tours by Legion caravans to review the work being done by federal, state and'other con servation agencies. Numerous other activities are given in the booklet, but are not listed in the review. Legionaire, who have been in France will un doubtedly remember the excel lent stands of beech, oaks and silver fir in forests at Com peigne, Argonne, Vosges moun tains and in the vicinity of Paris. One notices particularly the park like character of the forest floor in the French for est since the peasants have re moved not only large pieces of all the dead and decaying wood but also the small twigs and branches. Otto A shower was given in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Hal Cabe Saturday night at the home of Miss Mamie Norton. They received many beau tiful and useful gifts. Estis Hannah, who has been re tired from the navy for several years, was called back into service recently.

The Fourth Quarterly Conference of the Macon circuit was held at Mulberry Sunday, October 1. It was well attended by people from the entire circuit. The presiding elder, Rev.

Dean ol The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for October 8 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious EducaUon; used by permission. THE FORERUNNER OF THE KINO LESSON TEXT-Matthew 3:1-17. GOLDEN TEXT Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. Matthew 3:3. When an' earthly king visit! his dominions or makes a jou.ney to another land, great preparations are made for his coming. Everything Is done to expedite his journey and to assure him of safety and com fort. The United States and Can ada have recently had that Interest ing experience.) The King of kings and Lord of Lords who in loving kindness and gracious condescension had come to earth to be our Re deemer had now grown to manhood and was prepared to enter on His public ministry. God sent John to be His forerunner to prepare the way and to herald His coming. I. A Herald Prophetically Fore told (vv. 1. 3, 4). The coming of John (usually called the Baptist) was of such vi tal concern to God that He had re vealed It to His prophets hundreds of years before (see Isa. 40:3). We should study and believe the message of the prophets. The same prophecies that pointed to John the Baptist and Christ's first coming also point to the second coming (Mai. 3:1-6; 4:1-6). We know the former took place, why should we doubt the fulfillment of the latter? We do well to take heed to the word of prophecy (II Pet. 1:19). Let us also prepare the way of the Lord, not as John did, for his was a special ministry, but by mak ing ways for the gospel to reach the hearts of men. We can remove hindrances and obstructions, prepar ing their hearts to receive Him as Saviour and Lord. II. An Unusual Man with a Burn ing Message (w. 2, 6-12). What an arresting appearance John must have made as he emerged to the edge of the wilder ness to present his startling mes sage! God had kept him (like Moses and others) in the quiet of the des ert where He could talk with him, away from the distractions of so called civilization. This simple liv ing had made John a striking per sonality, quite unusual and uncon ventional. The man who strives for such an appearance to attract at tention is but a fool, but on the other hand unconventionality will not de stroy one's usefulness if he has a message from God. The preaching of John was a burn ing message of repentance. There had been no t prophetic message since the time of Malachi, and in the intervening 400 years the reli gious life of the Jews had settled down into a barren legalistic formal ity. John came with a simple, prac tical, and plain-spoken indictment of sin, which led to repentance and which made religion vital and real again. . We know that the gospel of the grace of God in Christ goes far be yond the preaching of John. But we also know that the Church needs to get back to the proclamation of a vital heart-searching message, and some genuine old-fashioned repent ance. Then we like John will bring men to Christ for salvation, for sanc tiflcation, for service. III. A Humble but Privileged Servant of Christ (vv. 13-17). The crowning event in the min istry of John was the recognition of Jesus as He came to be baptized. He was deeply conscious of his own unworthiness for this great work and pointed to the coming Saviour as the One in whom they should put their trust (vv. 11 and 14. See also John 1:29). John was not Jealous of his own position, nor seeking his own advancement (see v. 3 and John 3:30); 1 To this faithful and humble serv ant came the inestimable privilege of baptizing the Saviour. The bap tism of Jesus presents a mystery which we cannot fully solve. It is certain that He did not come to be baptized for the remission of sin, for He knew no sin. The best ex planation seems to be that in His obedience to His Father He was will ing to subject Himself to every ordi nance of God a spirit which is not too common, by the way, among His professed followers. He was not a sinner, but He took the sinner's place, and thus He both entered upon His ministry and pointed for ward to that day when God made Him "who knew no sin" to be "made sin for us" so that "we might be made the righteousness of God in him" (II Cor. 5:21). Gracious Amid Gloom Yet for all my Lord's gloom, I find Him sweet, gracious, loving, kind; and I want both pen and words to set forth the fairness, beauty and sweetness of Christ's love, and the honor of this cross of Christ, which is glorious to me, though the world thlnketh shame thereof.
