The Faster You Drive
The Longer It Takes
TO STOP, - That is!
Good drivers know that the high
er the speed the more distance re
quired to stop. The question is
Do you know how much distance
is required to recognize the need
to stop, apply the brakes, and come
to a full stop at any given speed?
Do you always drive realizing that
you must be able to stop in an
emergency?
We'd all be safer drivers if we"d
remember three things: the driver
has to see and recognize the need
to stop before he can start stopping.
After he does that, there's a half
second or more interval called 're
action time' before he is actually
doing the third thing, putting on
the brakes. All this time until
the brakes finally stop the car
the car is moving forward toward
the thing the driver doesn't want
to hit!
Here are figures on how long
it takes an average driver to see

SPORTS AFIELD
By TED RESTING
The primary purpose of streamer,
spinner and bucktail flies is to get
big fish, and they lie deep. Getting
a fly down under the current is
the first lesson in this type of
fishing.
An obvious method of sinking a
fly is to weight it. A fly not pre
weighted can be fixed by winding
the long shank of the hook with
strip lead.
Yet a fly, no matter how it is
weighted, will plane to the surface
with the line and leader when it
is under tension across or against
the current. The way it is handled
in the water makes the difference.
For instance, when the fly is cast

SCHIPTUREi The Book ol Jonah.
DEVOTIONAL READING: Ephaaiana
1:1441.
Peevish Prophet
Lesson for June 5, 1950.
JONAH THOUGHT he knew better
than God. When men said, "Be
a prophet," Jonah decided to take
a long vacation: He took a ship for a
far place so. far away he thought
even God could not follow. When
God said, "Preach,
to Nineveh," Jonah
decided that was
the very thing he
did not want to do.
When God said, in
effect, "Be a mis-'
sionary," Jonah
thought he would,
rather be a tourist.
Of all the prophets
oa record, Jonah
was the peevish one..
The remarkable and unique
little book Jonah la perhaps
the most misanderstaod book la
the Bible. Nobody knows how
mach Ink has been wasted on
the whale (which, incidentally,
was not a whale tat a fish!),
whereas the real message of
Jonah la not a bent whales at all.
It Is about taking the message of
God to the meat unlikely places
In the world; It Is the story of
how the very people who ought
to be doing it, sometimes won't
do it.
Does God Care?
CONSIDER the good reasons Jonah
might have given for not going
to Nineveh. They are like the rea
sons people give nowadays for not
believing in foreign missions. (A
mission to Nineveh was about as
foreign a mission as any one could
have thought of, in those days.
Reason number one: The
Ninevites were mean people.
So they were. Assyria, of which
Nineveh was the capital city,
had done, and would do Israel
more harm than any other en
emy she had.
The Ninevites were an unscrupu
lous, greedy people. They knew no
law but force. They spread by vio
lence into many a country. They
were the nation nobody loved.
Should the message of God be
given to such a city? Jonah thought
not; God said it should.
And of course God was right. If
the message of God had been sent
only to peoples and nations that
"deserved" such a favor, God's
messengers would all have stayed
at home.
Too Far From God
REASON number two: Nineveh Is
a long way off. Indeed it
was. To reach Nineveh, Jonah
would have to pass through at
least a dozen other cities, all
of which no doubt needed preach
ers. Were there not enough people
at home who needed preaching? Of

wonderful missionary opportunity
there on the ship. Every man of
the crew was a heathen. But Jonah
was fast asleep.
This is often too true. People
will protest about foreign mis
sions: why send preachers and r.
doctors and teachers. aeT mon
ey faff 'away? Aren't there
--plenty of heathen right at home?
Of course; but yon won't often
... find the objector to foreign mis- .,
ions doing much about it.
Any church that is awake and
active In supporting foreign mis
sions will be found to be just as
alive and intelligent in meeting the
problems of the neighborhood.
Judge The World
REASON number three: (This
sounds, like a silly reason, but
Jonah actually put it forward
Jonah 4:2.) God is too good! what
was the use of preaching to Nineveh,
Jonah wanted to know, if God was
going to be gracious and not de
stroy the city with fire from the
sky?
If, God Is good and merciful,
why should we bother about
Bonding missionaries anywhere? -Won't
he save every one any
how? Isn't God too good to
judge the world?
Jonah overlooked the fact that
God had mercy on the Ninevites
because they repented. Nowhere In
the Bible is there any' encourage
ment to believe that God has mercy
on the unrepentant To all who
turn to him, God is gracious; and
the job of the missionary, what
ever else he does, is to persuade
people to turn to God. "Be ye rec
conciled to God," said Paul, the
great Christian missionary. If
rebels will not lay down their arms,
how can there be '.an amnesty? '.'
The great tragedy of Juda
ism Is the tragedy of Jonah!
y.God wanted' his people to win -(
the world; hot they became hv -grown,
.they ceased even . to -wish
to be a missionary faith. '.
Shall the same tragedy ever "
take Chrtotianlty? .

Dr. Foreman
Once the fly U . , u r, you
'll get the most Lini act on with
a series of short twites .Work the
fly slowly. Often the current will
grab the belly of the line end race
along with the fly la spite of every
thing. To counteract this, concen

No matter what fly yon use,
make the stream work for you. Let
the current take charge. - It is

nels where fish expect food. .

Q. Why should Irish potato vines
be destroyed before harvesting
when the field is infected with late
blight?
A. This disease, if allowed to
get started on the tubers will con
tinue to develop on the potatoes
and may result In rejection or
heavy dockage on the market
The vines must be- killed long
enough to be thoroughly dry if in
fection is to be prevented.
Q. Please suggest a control for
flies on my dairy farm,
A. Fly control on the farm will
need close attention' this season.
There is evidence that flies may
build up a tolerance to DDT and
other insecticides. This means more
preventive measures. Locate breed
ing places and remove manure
piles and clean out twice a week
during summer months. Watch
areas in poultry and hog houses,
beneath feeders and watering
troughs. Use substitute for DDT
methoxychlor on milk cows. DDT
may be used on dry dairy animals
and beef cattle, bulls, hogs and
other animals as well as in poultry
houses and places where flies con
gregate. Spray areas where fly
'specks' are numerous such as ceil
ings, beams, light cords, etc.

Food Specialists say the onion
is a most important vegetable in
giving zest to a wide variety of
dishes. No other vegetable can be
used in so many ways
Think of the many sauces, stuff
ings, for meat, poultry, fish, salads
and dressings, relishes, main dishes
and vegetable which need onions
for their savor!
As a cooked vegetable onions are
popular creamed, au gratin, or
cooked with tomatoes.
