ICE BOXES There are many kinds of fee t boxes ........ There la the good, old-fashioned kind, consisting of a large chest divided Into a zinc lined com partment at the top which holds ice, and a partitioned lower sec- tlon where food is preserved. Then, there is the new-fangled electric variety, filled with . all kinds of chromium plating and enamelled fixtures '. . . and the theory is that this kind of ice box does Just as good a job as the others in keeping our meat, milk and vegetables from spoil ing. There is a third kind of ice box too. We don't see much of this latter kind, but we have it- on good authoritjTthat it is moss important than aH the rest . It is made of paper - - kraft . fiberboard paper, to be exact. It consists of two boxes, one within the other. These boxes are cover ed on both sides with foil, and .they are specially insulated with cotton.

ABBAHAM'8 PRACTICE : . ' ' OF BROTHERHOOD ' " LESSON TEXT Genesis 13:1-11. GOLDEN TEXT Let there be BO strife, I pray thee, between me and thee , , . for we be breUuwv-Genesis f :. As we study the contrasting self ishness of Lot, we see the true gen erosity, of Abram and the brotherly love which prompted it in bold relief. In a . world where men reckon even their friendships as something which must yield some financial return, It is good to stress the fact that kind ness and sacrifice are recognized and rewarded by God. ' . Abram, after dwelling for a time in : Canaan, had gone down into Egypt because of a famine in his own land. After many trying' ex periences, he returned to his prom ised land and there he prospered mightily under the good hand of God. Unlike many who forget God when ' they become rich, we find Abram ' - ' ""' I, Meeting Prosperity With Godli ness (w. 1-4). ' Abram "was very rich." That would be almost enough to consti tute a spiritual obituary notice for many a man's spiritual life.. , But Abram did not let his riches come between him. and God. He sought out the altar which he had first built at Bethel, and there he called upon the name of the Lord once again.-, ''":-"' ' Note then, that riches in them selves need not destroy a man's character or spirituality If they are held as a gift from God. and for His glory. Meet growing prosperity with, increased godliness and all will be well. n. Meeting Problems With Klnd aess (w. 8-8). , Abram's riches, and those of Lot, were largely In flocks and herds. For them there had to be great areas of grazing land, and in the rocky sec tion where they found themselves, grass was scarce. Result? - A fight between the herdsmen Lot, the younger, should hava tak en the lead in meeting that situa tion, but his selfish heart was too mall for that But Abram, eager for peace 'and brotherly love, indi cated at once his willingness to do anything necessary "to preserve peace. ' - One "could not ask a finer indica tion of true bigness in a man. "Big men use their prestige to serve great ideals. .Abram used his tremendous advantage to do a beautifully gen erous thing to eliminate strife. Not many men are big enough to follow this course" (W. B, White). Only God can make a man that big. but God can do it for any one ot us. If Christian people would lis ten to the words at Abram, "we are brethren" (v. 8), and put them into practice, there would be an Immedi ate end .to aD the foolish strife which divides God's people. . ,. . There is no call for compromise with untruth, nor any occasion for softhearted generosity which will only spoil its recipients. We-are talking about the honest and intelli gent use ot kindness and 'tact be tween brethren. When kindness 'meets problems, the problems dis appear. Why not try it? - - . HI. Meeting gelflshaesa With Love w. 10-12). ' ; . Lot made the typical choice of the wordly-minded man,1 the one which would give him the best returns in dollars and cents. It seemed like a shrewd thing to do, but it resulted In disaster, for it meant pitching his tents over toward the wickedness of Sodom. - -. . Abram bad to rescue Lot again and again from the results of his decision: hut thus in love ho met the arrogant selfishness of his toolr Hsh nephew. v' ;! ; God rewarded Abram by a renew al of His covenant with him (Gen. 13:14-18). God understands and val ues the . kind and thoughtful act, even though the world may Ignore it or sneer at it . ;T:' ' . Lot probably did not Intend to go all the way into wicked Sodom to live, but having once started that way, it was easy to go on and on. Even so Christians In our day may not Intend to slip' off into world)! ness, but if they continue to pitch their tents toward Sodom, they will find themselves there one sad day. This may be done by seeking wealth or worldly advantage at the expense of association with unbeliev ers, or by some manipulations or maneuvers which will Involve com promise. It may come about by reason of indulgence in worldly amusements which dull spiritual perceptions and kill an appetite for the Word of God and prayer. Abram Is a character -who "wears" well. We "see him meeting one situation after another, and making the right choice. Oh, he was not perfect! His mistakes are noted In Scripture, and he Suffered for them, too. But because his heart was fundamentally right, and he had a constant desire to do the will cf Qod, he found his way through, and JtisUUed the name which God gave him "The friend ot God" James 2:23; Isa. 41:8). 1 k.- r ' xnnCs The Kali " I " Vt CiAon at Price Ad i compiles tills thumi- 1 1 guide from official - .cs i week for the Daplln Tlneo u I pub lie service feroro.i RATION CALENDAR PROCESSED FOODS: N2.
