CoIors Vary With Heat

Development is under way Of the
so-called sympathetic colors which
vary with deviation in temperature.
Such developments may prove very
valuable. especially as indicat tors of
temperature on household radiators,
bearings of railroad cars, radiator
caps on autos-also on various other
equipment and machinery. They
may even come to be used decora-
lively on walls, exhibiting as they
do color changes under the effect
Of varying heats and lights. This
phase might allow for the presenta-
ton of scenic effects through the
interposition Of strong lights.

The Church And
The Community
BY REV. jobs. KNUDSEN

Every dawn brings a new start.
No matter how dark or difficult the
night has been, morning gives new
strength and new hope. That which
doomed as dark and foreboding shad-
ow at midnight dwindles down to a
smaller and definite obstacle in the
first revealing rays of sunlight. Man
raises up his head and tackles the
task he left in Illustration at night
advance a pace or two with the gift
of new day.
We feel frustrated and discouraged,
because it appears that mankind is
about to begin new night of wars
and hatred. The day of peace and
progress, we believed we were liv-
ing in, has gone without the advance
and the accomplishment we had hoped
it would bring. Our disappointment
is all the greater, because we had
even come to believe that there would
be no more nights, and that mankind
would go on ahead, constantly climb
ing to greater heights of perfection
LUZ III CcSil ih6iiI IllClC ID IllS llOpS
of new day in which we can tackle
our difficulties with renewed vigor.
1t is this hope that sustains us. There
is probably nowhere a complete pes
simist who has no hope for a bet
ter day. Even now when we see our
work for peace and goodwill frus-
trated, we are probably adjusting our
selves to the idea that our advance
will come in succeeding days of work
and not in one long, glorious day.
To a Christian this hope is in
dissolvably connected with a faith
in God. We meet each new day with
the brightness of this faith. 81 will
breathe with rapture the verdant air,
Thank the Lord who gave me this
day so fair" The light and the day
is a gift from God, and the renewed
strength comes from Him. In His
name we can 60 ahead and meet
the problems that come to us.
That is why Christmas has become
the great Christian festival it is. It
means to us that God has given us
a new day, that there is always the
hope of a new dawn for us.

APPRECIATION

Through these lines 1 wish to ex-
tend most hearty and sincere "thank
you, boys" to each and every one
who so willingly helped fight the
fire in my warehouse Sunday night.
The fine spirit of cooperation and
help extended by the Sandstone Fire
Department, the splendid assistance
rendered by the Great Northern Rail
way crew sent here by special train
from Sandstone, together with the
immediate, continuous and untiring
efforts of the Askov Fire Department
and volunteer helpers throughout the
cold night saved me from financial
ruin and is indeed appreciated.

New Heating Plant for Church.

The local Danish Lutheran church
congregation held special meeting
in the church Sunday afternoon for
the purpose of making final de-
cision on the matter of buying new
heating plant for the church. The
board had received letter from the
Danish Ladies' Aid some time ago
saying it would donate $500 toward
the purchase of new furnace,
and some time later they had re-
ceived a similar offer from the Eng
lish Ladies' Aid. After due discus
sion of the matter it was regularly
moved and carried to authorize the
board to install new heating plant
with the lone exception of one vote
the motion was carried unanimously.
The church board has met with
various heating experts to ascertain
which of the various types and makes
would be best suited for the church.
An effort will be made to have the
new unit installed before Christmas,
but that is doubtful as such large
equipment generally has to come
from the factory and hence it will
take from one to two weeks to get
here.
