Lemon Text: Luke 25:38-83 Jesus was buried late Friday even ing, following the crucifixion. Two prominent Jews attended to his burial. Joseph of Arimathea, a member of the Sanhedrin, was bold enough to request the body from Pilate and give to it 4 place of interment in his own new tomb excavated in the rock. Nicodemus, one of the rulers, who Erly in the ministry of Jesus came him by night, also assisted him. it was almost the beginning of the Sabbath the process of embalm ing was very hastily done. The three-day period foretold by esua passed, not three days as we count them, but according to the Jewish method, that is, part of Fri day, all of Saturday and part of Sunday, during which time Jesus was in the tomb. Early Sunday a group of faithful women proceeded to the tomb to complete the embalming which the two men had hurriedly done Friday evening. To tneir surprise tney mere met by angels who advised thorn that Jesus had risen. They hurried back with the news, and im mediately Peter and John proceeded to investigate the report. Peter en tered into the tomb and found the i grave-clothes perfectly arranged but the body of Jesus was gone. The first appearance of Jesus was to Mary Magdalene. This is note worthy in an age when women were not regarded as highly as now. Shortly afterwards he appeared to the other women of the party. The first man who saw Jesus was Simon Peter, although we have no details of this appearance, it being merely stated that he appeared to Peter. We have a very good account of the appearance of Jesus to two dis ciples, not apostles, walking from Jerusalem to Emmaus, a village a bout seven miles from Jerusalem, hese two men were discussing the various events of the recent past when Jesus joined them and in ans wer to his questions they told him briefly about Jesus and his work, hiw he had been killed and with him tHe hope that he would redeem Israel, and then of the strange stor., from some that he had risen from the dead. In his conversation Jesus referred to the many scriptural pas sages about his career and referred to the many scriptural passages about himself. In this interpretation, we may be sure that Jesus stressed such facts as these, pointed out by C. R. Erd man: "The Scriptures contain au thoritative messages concerning C&rist: these messages can be un derstood only by those who believ. in Christ, and. are guided by him; the essential truths concerning Christ center in the facts of his death and resurrection; in witness of , the salvation thus secured, repent ance and forgiveness of sins can be f preached; this salvation is to be pro : claimed in all the world; the follow ers of Christ are the messengers by whom this good news is to be made known: the power for such proda mation is imparted by the Spirit ol Christ who was manifested in ne power on the Day of Pentecost, ami who is now an abiding Presenct and a Source of limitless strength to aii who seek to do the will of Chris; and to glorify his name." At length Jesus revealed his iden tity to these disciples who returned to Jerusalem and found ten of the apostles together, discussing the ap pearance of Jesus to Peter. The Savior appeared then to this group and a week later to the eleven apos tles to convince Thomas, who had been absent the preceeding wees. Several other appearances during the forty days are also given us. Jesus appeared to seven fishermen led by Peter, to all the apostles and to a large gathering of five hundred, also to his brother James, who be came as a result a leader in the early church, and, finally, on the occasion followed by his ascension from the Mount of Olives. We cannot understand the mya tery of the nature of Jesus during this period. He passed unimpeded through the doors as if spiritual yet he exhibited his wounds and ate fooiJ as if material. Perhaps his forrr was interchangeable. So, the ascen sion is a mystery to us but as J. Patterson Smyth says: "We believe that the visible event which we call the ascension was his kindly con- .' descension to simple human minds. We naturally connect that higher life which is beyond, our present comprehension with the blue heavens above, or the starry heights beyond the blue. In concession to this sim ple thought, instead of just disap pearing as at other times, he rose from the earth and a cloud received him. It only means that he had passed from our present sphere of exiFtence to another sphere beyond our own."

'(. WE SPECIALIZE ON . ; THE INVISIBLE SOLE White's Shoe Shop Courthouse Square 1 . HERTFORD, N. C. Australian troops fighting in Africa are equipped with guns ani i tanks "made in Australia," writrs Sir Robert Garran, former Solicitor General of Australia, in the curren Rotarian magazine. In the last wai their equipment came from England but in the prist two decades Australia has become industrialized. "Before the present war broke out, manufacturing had advanced from quite far down from the list to first place," he notes. "Agriculture, for so many years in second, place ha dropped to third, while mining slip ped from first to second place." The story of this gradual economic evolution parallels that of the United States and Canada, thinks the Aus tralian, a recent visitor to the United States. South Africa, he believes, will follow the same pattern. Pas toral and agricultural products vied with those from the mines while set tlers came in to fill the wide open spaces of the country. Then came the surge of manufactures . . . push ed along by the Great War of 1914 1918, and now by the present con flict. Yet, "young as we are, there is one field in which I think we have outstripped Canada, the States, and Old England herself the field of labor legislation," Sir Robert writes. "We have concentrated on a Fair Deal. We have a Labor Party . . . we have had Labor governments . . . And we not only survived, but pros pered." Under the present emergency leg islation, the Executive has full power to deal with industries, manpower, and everything except conscription for overseas. The forces sent out of the country, including the 40,000 aviators which Australia is furnish ing as needed as its share in the Empire pool, are all volunteers. "We are not afraid of the word 'dictator ship'," explains Sir Robert. "An Australian soldier does not feel him self less a democrat because he places himself at the disposal of the nation. Our business feels no feai of losing itself when it does the same. As Mr. John Curtin, the lead er of the Labor party, said in the de bate on the emergency bill: "We are not afraid of what the Government will do with this power, but we are afraid of what the enemy will do if it is not voted." : ; , ; VISIT PARENTS Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Harris, ol Norfolk,' Virginia, spent the week end with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J.

Samples Taken Of Fertilizer A corps of 16 engineers of the State Department of Agriculture will comb North Carolina between now and May 15, securing samples of fer tilizer for analysis "to determine whether manufacturers have fjven farmers the amount of plant food guaranteed on the bag," D. S. Col trane, assistant to the Commissioner of Agriculture, announced today. "The work of the fertilizer inspec tors will be a safeguard to the farm er as well as a protection to the honest manufacturer against dis honest competition," Coltrane said. Since the greater bulk of fertilizers purchased today are delivered direct to the farm in contrast to the buy-at-the-warehouse system, the Depart ment officials have announced that "more and more samples of fertilizer will be gathered at the farm or on farm routes in order to obtain more representative samples." Coltrane emphasized that "all farmers in the State having a ton or more of fertilizer at their farms me. urged to write the State Depart ment of Agriculture if they desire sami les to be taken and analyzed." "We are making a special effor" this season to Ret a large numbei of samples of fertilizer direct from the farm,", he added. "The cooper ation of all farmers will enable us to continue a progress program of user-manufacturer protection." lie Baker.
