The Gospel according to Mark, 1

i With its love so unfailing and

do they think,

'Tis a wonderful story, that Gospel
of love,
|As it shines in the Christ life ■

And, oh, that its truth might be
told again
] In the story of your life and mine!
Unselfishness mirrors in every,
scene;
Love blossoms on every sod;
And back from its vision the
heart come to tell
The wonderful goodness of God.
You are writing each day a letter,

Take care that the writing is true;!

International I SCHOOL
LESSON

Released by Western Newspaper Union.
Lesson for February 24

Council of Religious Education; used by

WHAT MAKES A PEOPLE GREAT
—RELIGION IN THE HOME
LESSON TEXT: Deuteronomy 6:4-12.
MEMORY SELECTION: Every day
will I bless thee; and I will praise thy
name for ever and ever.—Psalm 145:2.
Home, church, school and the
state — these are the four institutions
which determine the greatness of 1
people —and the most influential of
all is the home.
What a child becomes under the
nurture of the home will determine
his interest’ in the church, his atti
tude toward school, and eventually
his value as a citizen of the nation.
How tragic then that we are giving
so little attention to our American
homes!
The religious life of the home is
the most important element of its
activity, for it is the determining
factor in the life of the child. It is in
the home that the child’s whole ex
istence centers and from which ne
receives the repeated impressions,
day by day, which determine char
acter and destiny. It is in the home
that the parent has the opportunity
to demonstrate the reality of the
faith professed in the church, and
to show the child that Christianity
really counts in the ordinary experi
ences of life.
Three things appear in our lesson
as characterizing the religion of the
home.
I. Worship (vv. 4,5).
Twice a day the orthodox Jew re
peats -the words of these verses:
namely, at the time of prayer, morn
ing and night. They remind him of
his personal relationship to God, and
they recall one of God’s primary
reasons for calling Israel to be his
people. They were to be a national
witness to the one true God in the
midst of the almost universal wor
ihip of many gods. They were to
stand for monotheism in the midst
of polytheism.
So important is the complete de
votion of man—and that brings in
the whole family—to God that when
Jesus was asked what wgg the
greatest of all commandments (see
Mark 12:28-31), be named this pas
sage together with Leviticus 19:18.
Nothing should tak* precedence
over the true worship of God in our
hearts, and in the hearts of all those
we hold dear in our households. The
Eternal One, the Source of Life,
the All-Powerful One, he is "our
God” tv. 4) Snd he looks to us for
complete and constant devotion to
him. Let us give it.
11. Instruction (w. 6-9).
It was not enough that these words
should be repeated in some regular
or formal worship, but they were to
be taught to the children in the home
with aU faithfulness and diligence—
and by the parents.
We are far too eager to delegate
the teaching of our children to oth
ers. In religious matters it is the
church and the Sunday school which
are responsible. Many parents do
not even take their boys and girls to
the house of God. They just send
them. Mark it well, such parents
are delinquent in their duties to God
and to their families.
But our vital point is this—it is
the business of the home to teach
religion, to do it regularly, and to
make it a normal and natural part
of daily life.
This is a matter of great signifi
cance. The faith which we profess
in the church must be effectively
brought into the home. It is not
enough to carry a Bible on Sunday.
It should be in use in the home
throughout the week; not only in
family worship, but in the incidentals
of daily life.
The family altar has gradually
disappeared, and it is regrettable
that it has, for the testimony of gen
erations indicates that in family
worship some of the most useful men
and women of all ages have received
the direction of life which made
them great for God.
111. Remembrance (vv. 10-12).
Israel had a history full of the
magnificent mercies of God. In the
day when, by his help and blessing
they were to be established in their
land, they were to recall his bless
ings and recognize his goodness.
There are few, if any, more pow
erful incentives to faith and coura
geous living than tiie remembrance
of past blessings. To recall how God
made it possible for ordinary men
and women to, by faith, subdue king
doms, quench the fires of persecu
tion, turn back the armies of aliens,
to become strong in the midst of
weakness (read Heb. 11) is to make
one ready for the battles of life.
Every family has its dark and
trying days, its experiences which
rock one back on his heels in aston
ishment and fear—and in the Chris
tian family God has always been
the answer —the solution to every
problem, the provider for every
need. Keep such memories fresh in
the thinking of boys and girls and
they will be ready for the storms of
life.
Help them to a great faith in a
great Saviour and you have given
them something more precious tha»
all the riches of all the earth.

' TURNS
Suppose you are in an automo
bile. If you make a turn too fast
on a flat road there is a tendency
for the car to skid outward- Even
if you made a sharp turn fairly
slowly, this tendency to skid.
would be evident. However, if
the road were banked the correct
amount (the 'degree of bank de
pending upon the speed of the
car, and the sharpness of the turn)
this tendency would be eliminated.
Similarly, if a car made a turn
which was banked too steeply it
would have a tendency to slip
down toward the inside of a turn.
Instead of an airplane flying
along a road which is banked, the
pilot banks the plane itself, by
side pressure on the stick. At the
same time he determines his rate
of pressure on the rudder, and
back pressure on the stick. Thus,
whether he slips or skids depends
on -whether or not his pressures
on the controls are coordinated.
If these control pressures are co
ordinated, he will have just the
right amount of bank for his rate
of turn.
A Note On Coordination
The term “Coordination” (or!
((coordination pressure,” “coor-i
dinated controls,” etc.) is one
which you will meet frequently in
flying. Therefore it is important
that you understand clearly what,
it means. Coordinated pressure
on the controls merely means that
pressures are applied to one or
more controls simultaneously, or,
sequence, in such a manner that
the plane does exactly what you,
want it to do.
Coordination is important in all!
maneuvers, but in your elemen-1
tary flight training you will hear
it referred to more often in regard
to turns than in regard to any
other maneuver. This is because
most of the maneuvers in your
primary training are combina
tions of turns.
Good coordination in a turn re
quires that pressures be applied
to stick and rudder in such a man
ner that the plane neither skids
nor slips. Since in your turns
your air speed will be fairly con
stant, the excellence of your turn
depends upon how well your rate
of turn and amount of bank are
adjusted to each other. The pres
sures on the controls used in mak
ing a turn will be discussed short
ly-
You will probably wonder how
you can tell if you skid or slip in
a turn. The explanation is simple-
During a turn, the same forces
acting on the plane that cause it

unless you are “Riding with the
An even better indicator of
skids or slips is a “Ball Bank in
strument, mounted on the mstru
ment panel. This consists of a
metal ball resting loosely insidt
a slightly curved glass tube. In
a slip or skid, the ball rolls to
one side or the other from its
normal central position and thus
permits the pilot to “see” as well
as “feel” a skid or slip. Such an
instrument is more sensitive than
“seat sense” of even a good pilot
and hence is extremely useful in
perfecting your coordination. Do
not, however, rely solely on this
instrument. You will probably flv
some airplanes not so equipped:
and need to be able to detect slips
pnd skids without it.
Right now you will be concerned
with medium banked, and gentle
banked turns- A medium banked
turn is one in which the angle oE
bank is between 30 and 50 de
grees. In a gentle banked turn, |
the angle of bank is less than 30
degrees. Your instructor will,
demonstrate the correct relation
ship of the lowered wing with the
horizon in both of these turns.

Turtle Has Neck Trouble;
Operation Yields Cyst
SAN FRANCISCO. Napoleon,
the turtle, stuck hi* neck out here
for a tonsillectomy.
There was danger that the big
green reptile at San Francisco’s
Steinhart aquarium would become
but a hollow shell, for every time
he ituck his neck out he got a lump
in it and couldn’t eat.
He shriveled up between decks to
a scant 58 pounds, so Dr. Wilbert
Chapman, curator of fishes for the
California Academy of Sciences, or
dered an operation.
A few swift incisions, a tied ar
tery and the whole thing was over
in 13 minutes. Napoleon showed
signs of immediate recovery.
The tonsillectomy, not the turtle,
was mock. The “surgeons” got cred
it for a cyst
January and February are re
garded as the critical winter
months in management of the pul
