Editor, The imes-NeTs:
After reading j. iFretweifs
fine article on 9Th. Nature Of
Man" | would like to add a few
words, not criticism but to bring
out few scriptures he has over
looked.
Gen. 2:7 God bre:thed into his
nostrils the breath Of life and
man became a living soul. Body
and breath combined made a liv-
10 being, a soul. He did not have
soul he was a soul The breath
of life is common to all creatures,
Gen. 7:15-23: "And they went in
unto Noah into the ark two and
two of all flesh wherein is the
breath of life" therefore all
are souls or living creatures.

one soul of five hundred both of
persons and beeves asses and
sheep" Mum. 31:2a "In whose

thing and the breath Of all man
kind Job 1910 Feel. 3:19. In
Jer. 2:34. an thy skirts is found
the blood of the souls of the poor
innocents."
Lev. 5:1-4 speaks of souls hav,
ing ears, lips and hands. These
and many others prove that the
soul is the living moving being.
The statement by the apostle
that Flesh and blood cannot in.
herit the kingdom" is supported
by Christ's talk with Nicodemas
John 1913. "No man hath ever
assembled to heaven" This is
clear proof that Enoch and Eli,
jan did not go to heaven. Jesus
spake these words hundreds OF
years after they were taken
Where they did go the Bible does
not reveal and we have no right
to say.
Moses died on Mt. -Nebo and
God buried him. He has never
been resurrected because Paul
says Acts 26 1928, Having OBJ
tanned help of God, l continue
unto this day, witnessing both to

other things than those which the
prophets and Moses did say

suffer and that He should be the

Oysters on the
Half Shell

oysters to be served on the
half-shell should be alive when
purchased. There are several
varieties to choose from, named
from the locality where grown.
BLUE Points" are about three
to four inches long and have a
most delicate flavor. Lynn
havenS" are larger than Blue
Points" and are more angular
in shape. oysters served on the
half,shell need a cocktail sauce
as an accompaniment and
wedges of lemon for garnish.
They are more easily digested
raw than cooked.
They are rich in vitamines,
= minerals, especially iodine, and
contain an easily digested car
bohydrate called glycogen.

EscGUOped

Escolloped oysters are fine
choice for the main part of a
Sunday night supper, any buffet
meal or a luncheon. It is a
hearty and satisfying dish and
at the same time has a delicate
flavor that is a welcome change
from the customary meat course.
To make take one quart oys-
ters and sufficient cracker
crumbs (about two cupfuls)
salt, pepper, butter and milk.
First spread layer Of cracker
crumbs lightly over bottorm of
baking dish, then cover gener.
ously with oysters which have
been drained Of their liquid;
sprinkle salt, pepper and dot
with butter. Add a second layer
of cracker crumbs and then oys-
ters and proceed in like manner
until the casserole or cooking
pan is filled. Let the top layer
be cracker crumbs. Then add
milk to barely cover and put in
oven and bake until milk is alb
sorbed and crumbs are light
brown.
In planning this dish for a
meal always gauge your time
carefully for it loses its good
ness by standing. 1t should be
served very soon after it has
been baked.
