Bob SecreSt Tells This One

California Congressman boasting
of the climate of their common
wealth caused Congressman Bob
Secrest, (Ohio) to remark: "You
know when hen lays an egg she
tells the whole world about it.
When a duck lays an egg she wad-
dies off from her nest and says
nothing about it. The result is that
the whole world eats hen eggs and
nobody eats ducks egg. If anybody
ever tried to eat a ducks egg, they
understand why the duck says moth

to advertise except the climate of
your state, you should take lesson

STRAIGHT FROM WASHINGTON
(By Stephen M. Young)

An important step toward per-
manent national recovery is con-
templated by this administration.
Thousands of destitute farmers; in
cludng many war veterans, will be
provided homesteads in Alaska and
given "stake" by Uncle Sam. FIT
teen hundred men, women and chill
dren are already on the way Only
worthy individuals who have here
tofore lived in northern and north
western states will be given this op-
portunity. 1t is believed that these
individuals are Injured to climatic
conditions they will encounter in
Alaska. This is forerunner of
similar plans to help destitute
farmers from other parts of the
country. Our government will i'm
prove dirt roads back to cheap
lands in outlying sections of this
country, and will build new roads.
Tracts of ten acres and more Will
be allotted to the individuals Sc
lected. Citizens given this oppor-
tunity for rehabilitation will be per-
mitted to repay the government
over a long period of years. Manv
disabled war veterans in receipt OF
small annuities as compensation
will, in maintaining small farms, be
able to support their families. Much
of the work in construction roads.
building fences and homes will be
done by the boys of the CCC camps.
This is q simple and reasonable
way to help thousands of people out
of the depression.
Barbara Hutton inherited $780,
600, 900. This was tainted money.
Girl clerks toiled long hours and
barely existed on meager wages
paid by the Woolworth interests
operating and 10 cent stores.
These dollars represented tears,
toll, heartaches and misery. 1t was
notorious that girls employed in
and 10 cent stores received wages
far below the minimum of decency.
Prince Mdivani, whom she purchas
ed with this wage-slave money, has,
SO it is said, taken thirteen million
dollars of her fortune. She is in
Reno to divorce him. Probably she
will then buy herself some other
foreign "nobleman" Certainly our
government should have taken by
taxation 95 percent of this fortune
above the first million. There must
be more equitable distribution of
wealth. Congress should exercise
it's taxing power. Inheritance taxes
against great fortunes should be
greatly increased.

In the Church there are to be

depreciation Of tongues.
VI. The Sealing of the Spirit
(Eph. 1:13, 14).
Into the regenerated life comes
the Holy Spirit at once. The in
dwelling of the Divine Spirit is
Gods seal of ownership. 1t Is not
only a seal of ownership, but of
security. 1t is also the guarantee
of the completion of the work Of

Christian unity is only possible
when effected by the one Holy Spirit.

glory of life, by failure to render
full and free obedience, as we'll as
failure to surrender every faculty
of the being to the control and d.

I. The Holy Spirit Promised
(Joel 2:2S, 29).
The prophet foretold that in mes
sianic times there would be a
mighty effusion of the Holy Spirit.
1. He was to be poured out.
2. He was to be bestowed upon
all flesh, irrespective of age, sex, or
class.
8. This out-pouring was to issue
in extraordinary activity and serV-
ice.
4. This activity was to be ac-
companied by marvellous signs.
n. This Prophetic Promise Was
Partially Fulfilled at Pentecost
(Acts 2:1-21, 80, 33).
The unusual behavior of the
disciples at Pentecost, with Peters
preaching which resulted in the
conversion of thousands, evidenced
the supernatural, but the cosmic
signs which the prophet predicted
to take place in heaven and earth
were not in evidence. The real full
fillment of the prophets prediction
is in the. future and will find full
.fillment in connection with the re-
gathering of Israel and the estab-
lishment of the Messianic Kingdom.
III. Some Names of the Holy
Spirit.

and shows them unto US John
1919.
8. The Spirit Of Truth John
1919. The Holy Spirit guides into
all truth. Those who are taught
by him know the truth.
w. Some Works of the Spirit.
1. He regenerates John 1889.
The new birth is peculiarly the
Spirits work.
2. He teaches John IA :26). The
Holy Spirit was to take up the
work of teaching the disciples
where Christ left off.

their lives and their shortcomings

4. Convicts the world Of right

rection and ascension of Christ
prove that he Is the Righteous
One and that righteousness is only
possible as he is accepted as Sa-
vior.
