"The Portrait of Christ"
By REV. WALTER B. BROCK

Fer God, who commanded the light
to shine out of darkness, hath shined
in our hearts, to give the light of the
knowledge of the glory of God in the
face of Jesus Christ.-II Cor. 4:6.
The mother of college student, we
are told, when visiting her boy, was
deeply grieved when she noticed the
type of pictures which She saw hang
ing on the walls of his room. She was
a wise mother; she did not scold him,
nor even make any remark on the sub
jest. For his birthday few weeks
later, she sent him beautiful copy of
Hoffman's portrait of the boy Christ.
The next time she visited her son the
old pictures had disappeared and had
been replaced by others Of a different
type.
"Where are the pictures that were
here when 1 visited you last time? ?"
she asked.
"Well, mother" was the reply, "you
see when l hung up the picture you
sent me the others just didn't fit They
had to 60"
Even so, when God shines in our
hearts, to give the light Of the knowl-
edge of the glory of God, in the face
of Jesus Christ, all unclean thoughts,
all uncharitable sentiments, all I'M
worthy images, are cast out. Let US
mediate upon the life OF Jesus, let US
commune with Him in the fellowship
of prayer, let US study His portrait
in the Holy Scriptures, until His radi-
ant face holds the focus of our minds
and is enshrined in our heart of hearts.
All that is petty and mean will be driv-
en- from out of our lives and we shall
be transformed into His image from
glory to glory. And others, beholding
our lght-His light reflected in our
words and deeds-will glorify the
Father which is in heaven.

JOSEPH of Egypt
WALLACE of Ioeva

The laundering, lack of foresight and total absence
of creative craftsmanship in the "branrusters of the
New Deal strikingy exemplifed in the acts Of the
most famous Secretary of Agriculture of ancient times
Joseph son of Jacob and Rachel, and the most amaz
ing Secretary of Agriculture that America has yet had
Henry A. Wallace.
Those millions of Americans who are good Bible
students will recall that Pharaoh had dream of seven
fat kline and seven lean kline that he could not inter-
pref.
So he sent for Joseph. The latter told the puzzled
Pharaoh that the seven fat kline stood for seven pros
porous years and the lean kline stood for seven
years of drought and famine.
For this Joseph was put in charge of the food of
the land including the grain and wheat much as Sec
rotary Wallace has been by the AAA program.
A comparison in parallel columns of the difference
between Joseph's common sense and the incredibly
stupid acts of Secretary Henry Wallace is herewith
presented:

 "of course. all actresses pay a good deal of attention to their shining Jocks, but platfum blondes and the stars who have dyed or gray hair are the ones who must be particularly careful about their coiffures,' says Fred Constantin, well-known New York hair stylist. "A good perma- nent wave that doesn't take away natural elasticity and which leaves the hair soft and shiny is a blessing indeed to all women who value their beauty"
 Especially is this true of dyed, bleached and gray heads.
 Any girl who has changed the color of her hair and any woman whose hair is gray or white should put herself in the hands of the best operator available at least six weeks before she makes an appointment for permanent. He will be able to recommend the right reconditioning treat ments if any are needed, and, when the time comes for the new wave, will know exactly how to treat her hair.
 As matter of fact, 1t is an ex- cellent idea to seek an operator who is specialist on bleached hair. If too much heat or the wrong kind of lotion is applied, 8 platinum head may turn out not only kinky, but streaked and greenish. On the other hand, if proper precautions are taken, there's no reason in the world why dyed hair won't take a permanent wave in satisfactory manner.
 Once you have the wave, con- tinue to pay weekly visits to that same operator. If he thinks you need hot oil shampoos, by all means get them. If he tells you not to brush your hair, don't do 1t.

WHETHER TO SPAR NO

 CULINARY QUESTION
By MARY E. DAGUE NEA Service Staff Writer

For years the experts told us to scar our roasts and steaks in order to keep in the juices. Now we know that this was all talk. The unseared roast is just as juicy as the scared one.
 They used to admonish solemn ly about the salting, too-claimed it had to be done after roasting to prevent drawing out the juices.
 Now we know that hardly any juices were lost in the roast pre- salted and since the salt fails to penetrate more than an inch into the roast it makes little difference in the flavor anyway.
 Many of the sol-cal1ed cheaper cuts of meat involve a large per- centage of waste in bone and fat. What the cheap cuts are god for is for extending the meat flavor to other foods, to make them pala- table.
 Leg of Lamb Is in Season. At this season of the year lamb s at its best and cheapest. If you want roast, the leg is the most economical cut. Cleverly used. the bone, taken out, may be used to make broth for luncheon the day after you have the roast for dinner.
 If you do take out the bone, fill the cavity left with a stuffing which will make the meat go farther and lesson the cost of each meal. : Most butchers take out the thin

And In the long run of human life, nothing adds so much to the actual output of the worker as a feeling that old age and sickness are provided for. This should be the great objective of any econ- omic system. 8. W. ]. Boldt and !. B.

1. It is good advice for any kind of salesmanship whether a woman be selling ribbons, railroads or ideas to some man. When a sales man-man or woman - says "Please buy" he is placing him self in the position of beggar and failing to use the merits of his goods. So, if you want a husband look as though you ex- pected to get him and the more charm you put into your expectant looks the more likely you will be to land him. Use the same psy- choiogy when you want the hus- band to give you Q new dress.

 sParis-(CP) - Although clear greens. light blues, dull pinks and multi colered prints are blooming all over the place. 1t looks as though the sophistication of white touches on black, or navy blue cannot be ignored for after- noon wear.
 For example. Chanel shows . black crepe afternoon dress with the new three quarter sleeves that are full at the elbow but banded tight half way to the wrist. The blouse front has the same fullness seen in many Chanel evening gowns, a fullness which comes from a gathering of the material at the rounded neck and at the waist. The pure black is relieved by row of white flowers at the front of the neck and at front sleeve edge.
 Quite different is an afternoon dress from Worth in old Bleach spiralspun linen where a white Chinese ribbon design dances over navy blue background. A huge pleated jabot, edged with a band of white linen, adorns the front of the gown. The stand up neckline ends in streamers which tie in fioppy bow on top of the jabot, whose pleats are matched by larger pleats which give fullness to the skirt front. Long sleeves are cuffed in white linen. A hat of nevy, spiralspun has a square brim which Is lined in white. navy spiralspun has a square gloves and shoes to match the costume.
