S. announcement tkot th! cniinrni would send aloft earth satellite sometime be tween 1957 and 1958 was the reve lation hy two ' Russian scientists that Russia plans to send such sa tellites aloft within 18 months. The Russians were speaking un officially while attending a world Scientific conference 'in one of the Scandinavian countries. When they were first approached about the earth satellite question, they ad mitted that Russia had planned to r such satellites into outer space just like the United States has an nounced it will do. " '.Their first estimate of the time, for the sending aloft of such sa tellites, was r about two - years. However, when reporters pressed them for a specific estimate, they estimated that Russia would send such satellites off within 18 Out Of Hospitals " Mental hygiene clinics of Veter ans Administration are keeping an average, of 2,200 mentally ick vet erans out of hospitals every yean VA said a great number of these veterans are engaged in useful, productive work while receiving treatment and generally improve sufficiently to end their outpatient treatments. The cost of treating these 2,200 in mental hygiene clinics an aver age of once a week for one year is roughly $1,000,000. The cost of treating the same number of pa tients in a neurop6ychiatric hospital is about $5,000,000 per year. ! ' VA therefore' estimates ' that about $4,000,000 a yea'r is saved in preventing Hospitalization. . y:; Only veterans with service-connected neuroses or; phychoses may be treated in VA's -mental hygiene clinics.

Most chickens have some disease- producing germs in their digestive tracts or in their respiratory sys tems. It is also probable that all flocks have 'some intestinal para sites among their members. ' These germs lodge in the litter, on equip ment and on range. , Visitors who come to your farm perhaps Have walked through their own poultry houses or someone else's.

Memory Selection: : "Incline your, ear, and come unto me: heart and your soul shall live." Isaiah .55:3. Lesson Text: Isaiah 55:1-13. ' The plight of the Israelites, cap tive in the land of Babylon, ,was far from satisfying to those so far from home. They were homesick, and fuJU of despair. As pointed out in a previous lesson, some were on the verge of revolting against the Babylonians, but Jeremiah the pro. phet, in .leiters to the exiles, cau tioned against such a foolish: step. Jeremiah told them to stop their grieving, and go to .work-r-to build themselves houses and take wives and Bettle down accepting their exile. as God's punishment for, their disobedience to him. Realizing that this was good advice, many . of them did just that.- They settled down and went into business. Since -Babylon was .the business center of the world, they had ample opportunity to trade1 and profit from their business transactions. As a matter of fact, they became so prosperous tnat they began to foi; get Zion and their high spiritual mission: It was at this time that the JewsGod's chosen people be gan to' develop extensively Jheir talent for trade, which has become so characteristic of them that the word "jew" has become in our lan guage a verb which expresses sharp business practices. v ', Isaiah, in Chapter 23, gives a keen analysis and courageous con demnation of the mercenary spirit and the chapter given for ourv study this week,, Isaiah 55, is a fur ther warning to the Israelites not to Over-emphasize the making of money and the enjoyment of things that money can buy, to the exclus-' ion of the worship of God. This warning is no less fitting for our generation of .Gentiles, who spend so muchof their time and energy in acquiring things and so little of their time in getting the things of the .spirit. . " . J In the study of this beautiful nassaare of Scripture, Isaiah 55, picture, if you will, the father of a larire family. He has given to the individual .members- of his family everything that their hearts could desire. He has furnished them with food,, shelter, clothing and the wis est of counsel at all times. Think, then, of the agony which this father suffers as he ?ees his children forsaking his counsel, de spoiling his property and, seem ingly, utterly ungrateful for every thing which he has so lovingly pro vjded for them. So' deep is the love ithat this father! has for his' chil- jdren,,jhoweVer,! it .overshadows ,thej disappointment in his heart and his consuming desire is to win them back to his- love and care. Is there anything In the above word-picture to suggest the love which our Heavenly Father has for us, his children? Surely, our.ex perience with him and the experi ences of mankind in the past, arl recorded for our consideration from time to time, reveals God as the father described above, Isaiah, in our lesson this week, pictures God as pleading , with his children to forsake their sinful ways and to return, to his loving care and guid ance. , ' V The invitation issued by Isaiah for God should be shouted from every temple of worship and every hilltop today. Surely, this message should be repeated over and over again, until men in all walks of life shall hear and respond to it "Seek ye the, Lord while he may be found:' call ye upon him while he is near.". How may God be found today? '. Isaiah answers 'this question in the seventh verse: "Let the wick 'ed forsake his way, and the un righteous man his thoughts; and let him return unto Jehovah." Dr. W. M. Smith, Bible scholar, says of this great verse i . "Here is the very center of this wonderful chapter the climax, ' as it were, of the gra cious invitation here extended by an., infinitely loving God. Four things God asks man to do: to seek the Lord, , to caU upon the Lord, to forsake the ways of wick edness, to return to the Lord. Four things God promises if man will do what God asks: If he seeks the Lord, he will find him; if he calls upon the Lord, he will be .heard; if he forsakes his way and returns unto the Lord, God will have mercy upon him; and God will : (Continue orf Page Seven) ' ' -iliHrnilp Hplinouenev was iust a term until - ,' , ' V ' ' y " 1 "JuvenUe delihquency Was just a ,term until ' they sent the boy down the street ,to what,, thev ' Oolitely termed, a "training school." - Then jt b.ecsme real,vbecause this boy wasn't ...
