' JVDAH'S APPROACHING DOOM
LESSON TEXT Jeremiah 36:2, 3.
J8-3U II Klnf!3 24:1-4. . .
MEMORY SELECTION -The fear of
the, Lord prolonseth days; but the years
of the wicked shall be shortened.
Proverbs 10:27.
The, decline of a nation from
strength and glory to weakness and
shame is always a sad thing to con
template. Still worse Is the evident
cause of such decay in the sinful
ness of the people and their stub
born rejection of God's mercy and
grace.
The religious reforms in Judah un
der Josiah were only temporary In
their effect on the people; partly be
cause of their own insincerity, and
partly because Josiah was soon
killed in battle. Yet God did not
leave his wandering people with
out good counsel, for it was in those
days that the great prophet Jeremi
ah ministered. He had been the
helper of Josiah in his good pur
poses; now he continued to plead
with Judah to submit themselves
to God and to his will.
His efforts proved to be fruitless as
far as Judah was concerned, for we
see that
I. Judab Would Not Respond to
God's Mercy (Jer. 36:2, 3).
God commanded his prophet to
write down his words in order that
the people might not only know the
inevitable impending Judgment, but
especially be reminded of God's de
sire that they should turn from their
evil ways and be forgiven.
One would have thought that they
would have responded to such mer
cy with an immediate and grateful
return to the Lord, but they did not.
Jeremiah, 'a' unique man of great
ability, was so tenderhearted that he
has often been called the weeping
prophet. Do not infer that he was a
weak, emotional character, for he
was strong in the Lord, and coura
geous in the face of rejection and
persecution. He urged upon Judah
the necessity of submitting to Bab
ylon, to whom God had given power,
and above all to the Lord, for a
spiritual cleansing and revival.
Our second section brings before
us the further sin of King Jehoiakim,
who led his nation on to destruction.
We see that
II. Judah Would Not Receive God's
Word (Jer. 36:28-31).
At God's command Jeremiah and
his scribe Baruch had prepared the
scroll with God's Word upon it. One
of the nation's- leaders was moved
by it, and through his urging, the
scroll was brought to the attention
of the king.
Jehoiakim, sitting before the Are,
heard only part of it, and then in
defiance of God he took a penknife
and cut it up and burned it.
One cannot help but think of those
in our day who call themselves
modern thinkers, or liberals, who
have also used their penknifes on
God's Word. They cut out of the
Bible everything they do not like,
and offer the hungry people the stone
of their own philosophies in place of
the Bread of life. Think what their
! judgment will be I
God's Word is not so easily got
'ten out of the way! The prophet
was commanded, to -rewrite the
scroll, and in it to declare the
awful Judgment of God upon the one
who mutilated his Word.
" To try to destroy God's truth by
fire and violence is as fruitless as
to try to tear the stars from the
heavens or to keep the sun from
shining. The wicked leaders ol a
great nation have tried that once
more in recent years, and they now
lie dead for their sins, with the na
tion a subject people, broken and all
but destroyed.
One wonders why those who pro
fess to serve the Lord will engage
in such activity, even as one won
ders at Judah, a -favored people of
God, refusing to receive his Word.
God is not willing to give up, and
now tries chastisement. But we see
that . .
' 01. Jndah Would Not Recognize
God's Providences (II Kings 24:1-4).
Jehoiakim had become the vassal
of Babylon, but after three years
he decided to try to throw off the
yoke of his oppressor, Nebuchad
nezzar. He was not able at the time
to dear with the situation, and so he
incited marauding bands from "vari
ous other nations to harass Judah.
We see, however, that this came
about at the commandment of God
(w. 2, Sf. Evidently he was ' now
using the distressing experiences of
life to turn Judah back to him; but
once again it proved to be in vain.
God does deal with men through
what we call his providences, and
these may include not only his mer
cies, but his chastisement. Trouble
and sorrow may be Gqd's means of
leading us to the place of repent
ance and blessing, ' - -
What folly it is to disregard the
hand of, God in our daily lives, or
to become : embittered at the cir
cumstances which are intended to
bring us to God's place of blessing.
Happy is the man or woman who,
being reproved in this way, profits
by the Lord's admonition (Heb. 12:
U). ev::;.,;:-;: "wy.'k

State College Hints
To Homemakers
Because of its cling, jersey cloth
is most attractive in dresses witjh
plenty of fullness. Heavy fullness
in one .place will make the dress
sag. Avoid straight "pencil-slim"
skirts or a snug fit. Because jersey
does not hold a press, avoid press
ed pleats.
Before '.-yiir; on pattern for cut
ting, fold jersey along one center
rib with the righ sides together to.
prevent curling. Use pins and
weights to hold pattern in place.
VQien fabric is cut, run a line of
stitching along cut edges which
tend to stretch using a longer and
looser stitch. Sew from bottom up
when stitching to prevent down
ward stretch.
Press lightly on wrong side, lift
ing iron li-oai p.ace to place rather
than pushing to prevent stretching.
The waistline always needs re
inforcing to prevent stretfth and
sag. Shirtwaist type dresses also
need to have collars, cuffs and
front edges reinforced to hold
their shape.
Bound or two-piece buttonholes
are best, worked holes are likely
to stretch or ravel.
Pig Losses Are Expensive

that dies thi; esr is 7 times great

Answers Timely
Farm Questions
Q. Is self feeding hogs a recom
mended practice?
A. The self feeding method is
the best way to feed fatening hogs
as it saves feed and labor. Dry feed
is preferable to slop because it
helps prevent digestive disorders.
When nursing sows are self fed,
the pigs learn, to eat from the
feeder before weaning and will
continue to grow without "setback"
from weaning.
Q. How much milk should be fed
to a calf during the first week?
A. Amounts will vary from J,ix
to ten pounds . daily depending
upon the size and vigor of the calf.

An important meeting, directly
effecting the farmers, is scheduled
for this week in Memphis, Tenn.
The most import problem to be
discussed is the establishment of
minimum, uniform protein, fat and
fiber standards for special pur
pose feeds. Such standards have
not been revised since 1038 and
the respective states have altered
and changed feed standards, and
as a result there is much disparity
among individual state standards.
Livestock and poultry nutrition
