"My soul, wait thou only upon
God; for my expectation is from
him." This declaration of David's
confidence in God constitutes the
Golden Text in the lesson SERMON
On "Soul and Body" Sunday in
Christian Science churches, branches
of The Mother Church, Tie First
Church of Christ, Scientist, in Bos.
ton, Mass.
Among the Bible texts in the les.
sonsermOn are these verses from
Luke relating to Christ Jesus:
"And he said unto his disciples,
Therefore l say unto you, Take no
thought for your life, what ye shall
eat; neither for the body, what ye
shall put on And seek not We
what ye shall eat, or what ye shall
drink, neither be ye of doubtful
mind. Bit rather seek We the
Kingdom of God; and all these
shings shall be added unto you."
A correlativc passage from the
Christian Science textbook, "Sci
cncc and Health With Key to the
Scriptures" cites these words OF
Mary Baker Eddy: "If we follow
tie command of our Master, Take
no thought for your lifc,' we. shall
never depend on bodily conditions
structure, or economy but we shall
be masters of tho body, dictate its
terms, and form and control it with
Truth"

j Two major qualities of the Pontiac Big Six
its reliability and long ife-offer motorists
definite cash advantage which is just like
money in the bank. For not only do these
qualities effect big savings in the cost of
operating every Pontiac-not only do they
add thousands of miles to its useful life and
treble the motoring satisfaction derived by
its owner e. but in addition they increase
still further the demand for used Pontiacs.
And that means that the Pontiac Big Six you
buy today will have high resale value when
you are ready to turn it in.
Investigate the features which contribute to
Pontiac's wonderful reliability and long life
such as the Harmonic Balancer which
counteracts torsional vibration in the crank
shaft, and the adjustable pressure feed lubri-
eating system which supplies the correct
amount of oil for every engine speed. Scores

Morse Names Common
in Parts of Scotland

Professor Brogger, of Oslo univer-
sity, In lecture at Edinburgh univer-
sity, commented on the striking fact
that the majority of the place names
In the Shetlands and orkneys were Of
Morse character. A scrutiny of the
old Morse farm names revealed GER
thin types Of names which had been
most used In the Shetlands, Orkneys,
Caithness and the Hebrides. Names
In Norway were not only chronology
zeal, but also indicative of the social
position held by the families in Nor
way. Further, their geographical
limit was sharply defined and for that
reason 1t was possible to conclude
from which parts of Norway the emil
grafton was greatest.
This proved to have been the south
western coasts OF Norway (Agder,
Rogaland), and the northwestern
(More). In the Agder coast districts
In recent years a number Of farm sites
which had been examined proved to
have belonged to an older Iron age,
and seemed to have been deserted in
the Seventy-elghth centuries They
were usually situated in districts
which were no longer cultivated. In
all probability a number Of these re-
mains were relics of the emlgrants.

COKE FINEST FUEL
FOR HOME FURNACE

Soft coal can never be burned In
house-heating furnaces with such com
pleteness Of combustion as coke.
When soft coal is used most of the
volatile matter distilled from the coal
escapes from the furnace unburned In
the form Of SCOT, tar, and combustible
gases. Part Of the SCOT and tar is de-
posted on tie heating surfaces Of the
stove or furnace and in the dues and
part escapes through the chimney as
visible smoke. The tar and SCOT do
not burn In the furnace because the
furnace Is usually too small and the
temperature too low for maintaining
their combustion. The residue left
after the tar and SCOT have been
driven from the coal is In the form Of
coke. 1t burns slowly and almost com
pletely In the small furnace and the
heat which gets into tie house is most
ly the heat that has been generated
by burning this residue. Therefore,
when soft coal is burned in the ordl-
nary house-heating furnace the coal Is
first reduced to coke by driving off the
volatile matter, most of which escapes
unburned; then the coke burns in the
furnace and Leafs the house. Driving
of the volatile matter unburned not
only causes a direct loss Of heat but
causes a great deal Of dirt in the fur
mace, flues, boiler room, and also In the
outside atmosphere. Since the VIOLA
tile matter In soft coal is Of negative
value so far as heating the house Is
concerned, It is better to use a fuel
that does not contain volatile matter.
Such a fuel Is coke.-Bureau of Mines

Small Boy Had Found

II was the evening rush hour An

opened to permit few more to crowd
In. A transit employee helped by
