for January 10
THE FIRST DISCIPLES
T0bn 1:35-49
&3T<18NNV~
Jobn 1:35-49
Rev. Samuel D. Price, ID.

Rev. Samuel D. Price, DID,.
Thirty years of developing life are
omitted by John in his Gospel. Only
Luke, in chapter 2:41!50, tells of the
visit to the temple at Jerusalem when
the Lad was twelve years old. 1t is
profitable to mediate on the kind of
life that Jesus lived in the Nazareth
home. Here is the ideal son and the
record has never been writtn concern
ing those developing years.
Meanwhile John the Baptist had at
tracted much attention through his
wilderness preaching. Multitudes came
to hear him in the Jordan valley. A
group of faithful disciples was work.
ing with the Baptizer. One day Jesus
came and sought baptism, though He
had no sins to confess. God placed
the seal upon this ~dedicatory act as
the Holy Spirit descended in the form
of a dove. The forty days of temp
tation in the wilderness followed, dur
ing which time Jesus Christ truly
faced His redemptive ministry.
One day it was the sublime privi-
lege of John the Baptist to say: "Be-
hold, the Lamb of God that taketh
away the sins of the world" Some
of the disciples of John thereafter
identified themselves with his greater
Teacher. Johns wondrful unselfsh-
ness is indicated in that he was ready
to give up his closest friends that
they might have still better associa-
lions.
Forthwith personal work began,
and hat is the one method hat Jesus
has approved for the growth Of His
Kingdom. Andrew at once sought out
his own brother Peter and brought
him to Jesus. John doubtless brings
his brother James to Jesus. When
they reach Galilee Philip is added to
the group of learners and he, in turn,
locates Nathaniel and induces him to
join this group of student-workers.

STUFFED CAULIFLOwER

Stuffed cauliAower is made of {
head of caulifower boiled whole until
it is tender. 1t should then be dropped
in cold water to blanch and then the
heart should be cut out and chopped
with half a dozen mushrooms and
some cayenne pepper. Put the stufing
in the cavity in the head and put the
whole on a hot dish, covered with
a piece of cheesecloth, in the oven
for a moment to heat. Do the work
quickly so that the cauliAower will
not need much heating. Serve with
white sauce.

WHO ARE THEY?

WIN AM LII
A man stopped me on the street
to say that he had some important
information. "They are going to put
the market up in the next few
weeks" he said.
"Who are bey:?" l asked him.
He looked at me scornfully, as
though / ought to be ashamed to con-
fess such ignorance. 'Why bey," he
answered, "are the big shots, the in
siders, the international bankers, the
Interests"
"Oh," I said, and thanked him and
went on my way.
When l graduated from college l
had a great deal of 1--WE of the Inter-
ests, and at that period they were in
deed pretty powerful. Important cor
porations were comparatively few,
and those few were small in compare
SON with today.
Their stock was controlled by a
compact group of men who, by act
ing together, could often make or
break the market. Morgan could get
them all in a room and tell them
what to do.
But times have changed. Corpora
lions are enormous; shares are scat
tered among millions. They, the in
terests, are not what they used to be.
One time 1 served on a civic COM
mittee, most of whose members were
bankers. The executive secretary was
a bright young college graduate. He
said to me: 81 don't have to worry;
when this job is over these big bank
ers will take care of me-"
Well, the job was over, and I told
him: "You are going to have a great
shock as to the power of the Interna-
tional Bankers. They may control
millions, but one thing they can't do
is tt get you a job. They may send
vol to the heads of certain corpora
lions with letters of introduction, but
they can't insist that you be hired.
Those corporation managers will re-
ply to the bankers, You hold us re-
sponsible; you must let us alone"
1t turned out as l predicted. The
young man finally secured a job, but
not by any help of the Interests.
l have seen several national elections,
but never one in which the partners
of any of the big international bank
ing houses were agreed upon a can
didate.
Two partners, sitting side by side,
would offset each Others votes.
In the last analysis, who are they?
I'll tell you. You and I are they.
We run things. A business may have
millions of capital, big plants, and
huge sales forces. But if you and 1 do
not like its product, all these huge
assets are merely liabilities.
Talleyrand said a shrewd thing
when he remarked, "There is n per-
son wiser than anybody, and that is
everybody" You and l are everybody,
and we decide.
Mr.. Morgan does not awe me. Ev-
en- the editor of this paper, who is
my boss, does not fill me with any
great alarm. But believe me, l care
about, you gentle reader.
When you turn your thumbs down
Pm through.

ZEN BERNIE rThe Old Ma
estro") has laid down his baton
long enough to write one of the
cleverest little songs. I have heard
in a long time. I have always been
a Ben Bernie fan, as who isn't, and
am usually around the loudspeaker
when he's on the air. One evening,
I heard him announce, in that bland
manner of his, that he had a new
song and that propositions from
Eastern publishers to publish it
wouldn't be unwelcome. Then he
played and sang Tin what he de-
scribed as his slightly : cracked
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Your Little Who
zis." 1t Immediately caught my
fancy, because it was tuneful, and
brought a novel, slightly humorous
twist to-the- usual love theme.
The publishers must have been
listening too. for the song has since
been climbing the ladder of popu-
larity in no uncertain manner.

USE SALT DISCREETLY

When there are to be guests at your
table don't be too free with the salt
shaker in cooking. Nowadays many
people are moderating their use of salt
and some people have actually been
told by their doctors to use very lit
tie in their diet. What you consider
just enough salt in the soup or the
vegetables or the gravy may make it
almost inedible to the person who has
become accustomed to using but lit
tie. Use salt very sparingly therefore
in cooking. 1t is a simple thing for
those who like it to add more.

Way back in the eighteenth century
they called these dainty accessories of
lace or fine linen "modesty" pieces
and now that they have been revived
in present day fashions the simple old
designation is still used.
Modesty pieces or simple modesties
came as a natural outcome of the fash
ion for deep V necklines, which are
usually more becoming than shorter
VS. and which give an effect of slen-
derness that is not possible with a

Ben Bernie, but also because Its

change of pace for a program, and

ADMITS POEM is NOT HIS OWN,
HANDYMAN STAYS IN PRISON
Judge Who Thought Writer Genius
Had Planned to Work for Parole
as Christmas Present.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 23.-Anthony
Kramer is just a handyman, after all.
and no poet. Therefore he'll eat MS
Christmas victuals in prison.
Hope for parole as Christmas gift
glimmered for Kramer last night when
he sorrowfully acknowledged that a
poetic plea for clemency that he had
sent to County Judge Franklin Taylor
was not his own composition.
The judge had pronounced the poem
a work Of genius and had taken steps
to have Kramer released Immediately
II he could write another poem equally
as good, just to prove he was not a
fake"
Kramer. who has II more months to
serve for taking some silver spoons from
a home where he was employed as
handyman said to the Jail warden:
Il saw the poem in a paper a long
time ago 1t seemed so like me that
memorized it."
He insisted he had not meant to put
one over" on the Judge, but had sent it
to him simply because he thought the
Judge, who writes verse himself, might
be interested
John c. Maher, chairman of the Pa
role Commission. was informed Of the
latest development, and said he was
