Thirsty? A thousand signboards
will tell you what to drink to refresh
yourself. Most of the suggestions
are there only to get your money,
and often their proffered lift is a
push downward and their refresh
ment is only prelude to destruc-
ton. But they do declare that thirst
is universally present. Throughout
the Bible thirst is used to express
mans need of and longing for God.
He is a spiritual being made IN the
likeness and image of God and IN
tended for fellowship with Him.
Never will he be fully satisfied until
he comes to God and meets his hum
ger and thirst with that which is
good"
The invitation of Isaiah is present
ed under the figure Of purchase.
Come we, buy" In carrying out
that thought we suggest that there
are four steps in buying and using
anything.
1. Listen ". y.
"Ho, everyone that thirsteth."
This is as Spurgeon says the cry
of salesman at fair" Amid the
confusing sounds and disturbing
sights surrounding his customer the
salesman must make himself known
and catch the interest Of his Gus
toner. The latter must listen to the
offer and the recommendation OF the
things for sale.
This is an unusual offer. Isaiah
invites the buyer to make his pur-
chase without money and without
price" Does that mean that the
thing for sale is cheap or worthless?
Far from it, for it is priceless. Sal
walton is free for the sinner, but it
cost God the price of His only begot-
ten Son. 1t is because Jesus paid
the price of redemption that We may
have it freely without cost.
III. Compare wv. 25).
A good shopper compares values
lest he make bad bargain or buy
that for which he has no real need.
What is the situation of the one who
is invited to buy what God offers?
He is a sinner who has been fool
ishly seeking to satisfy himself with
what the world has to offer. With
money he has tried to buy happi-
ness, contentment, recognition. The
bread of this world will never satisfy
and the water of this world only in
creases ones thirst. (See John 4:
Is, 40
Compare what God has to offer,
that which is good" that which
delights the soul ". D. Here is
life ". - assured by the promise
of One who made an "everlasting
covenant" with David, assuring him
of His sure mercies." 1t results In
ultimate glory ". 81.
The one who honestly makes such
a comparison is quickly satisfied
that the time has come to
iii. Buy wv. go.
Penniless, the sinner may "buy"
without money. He may call upon
God, for God has already called him.
He may seek God, because He like
the good shepherd has been out seek
ing the lost sheep (Matt. 1879.
While man can certainly not save
himself, there are things which God
expects the sinner to do. First, he
is to "seek the Lord" Where?
Right at your side, sinner. for "he
is near" ". g.. Then when the sin.
ner meets the Lord he is at once
conscious of his sin. What shall

Suits for Release
Red Tape Prevents 80
On Portuguese Boot From
Reaching South America
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
. NORFOLK, Va, Sept. 12.-Some
of the SO refugees aboard the Portu-
guese steamer Quanza sought by
court action today to break through
the red tape which thus far blocked
them from reaching South Ameri-
can destinations and which threat
ems to force their return to Lisbon
They were stopped at Veracruz
by the refusal of Mexican authori-
ties to recognize transit visas which
they said were issued by the Mex
ican Consul az Lisbon. The steamer
then put on to New York to dis
charge some passengers with Amer
lean visas and proceeded here to
coal.
Although the group was not al
lowed by immigration officials to
disembark here friends and rela-
tives of some hastened to take legal
steps which might allow them that
right.

it was disclosed that Fleet Street"
central area in which are pub
lished London'S newspapers which
long have lambasted Adolf Hitler
and NaZism, has been bombed and
the Offices of the Daily Herald and
Evening Standard damaged.
A demolition bomb hit a $1,000
gallon water tank of one of the
buildings and sent it crashing.
Nine. Trlssauds wax museum, an
assembly Of wax figures of world
characters, also has been damaged
Bombs shook an afraid shelter
in South London, where last nights
main attack centered, but no casu-
alties were reported.
Londoners expressed delight that
most of the noise of the raid was
from their own guns instead of from
bombs.
"Spasmodic gunfire and the thud
of exploding bombs in the heart of
London was replaced by a crescendo
Of sound and orange bursts of hun
dreds of Shells" said the British
Press Association.
London had barred her teeth and
was giving the raiders the hottest
reception they had ever had. The
old defenSelessneSs was gone, to-
gether with the menacing, monoto-
nous note of Germans flying with
almost clocklike precision to unload
their bombs. No longer could they
keep to their course through that
hail of fire. The noise was terrific,
but for Londoners it was the right
sort of noise"
Apparently this was London'S an
swer to German threats to ferry
10000 plane loads of bombs to this
area daily.
Some Londoners thought they de-
tected a different sound in the anti
aircraft fire, perhaps indicating
new type of gun.
A comparative absence of search
lights also gave rise to the belief
that new tactics were employed.
Formerly, the British tried to pin
the raiders with their searchlight
beams. and then trained their guns
on the target.

just blazed away. Broken shells
peppered the roofs and new, deadly
stars burst everywhere in the sky.
A bomb burst q gas main in South
London during the attack and raid
erS used the flame as a beacon to
drop four bombs around firemen.
A government communique said
the barrage had prevented many
bombers from reaching their OBJ
jectives and said the raid had
proved less effective than those
on the four preceding nights.
The government said 1T is prob
able the number of killed and in
jured was less than on the previous
nights.
Little night raiding was reported
elsewhere in England, although
lone German plane dropped four
bombs in the industrial MidlandS.
tDNB, official German news
agency, said Nazi warplanes had
heavily bombed military targets
in Liverpool and cities in South
ern England before dawn
Guns Roar Into Action.
The night-long London air attack
began at 1856 pm. Hundreds of
aircraft guns roared into action
as the first raiders approached the
city, throwing up a screen of fame
and explosives.
Apparently everything from light
Bofors guns to the heaviest anti
aircraft artillery joined in the firing.
Although the Germans attacked
repeatedly and dropped high explo-
sives and "Molotoff breadbaskets"
tincendiaries) the raiders which few
over the city were kept at a great
height. Some of the raiders were
forced to turn back with bombs still
in their racks. At least two were
shot down over the city.

the night in shelters waited for

forms were jammed, while in the

The agency accused the Greeks
of having spared no measures to

went ON:
=" Afew months ago, on the body
of another Albanian killed in Cia-

it was written that the same fate
was reserved for all Albanians who
hoped to free Ciamuria from Greek
domination"
1t was alleged that Greece had

nationalized it, with the result that

italian involved were believed to
be men of two columns which are
marching from Ethiopia toward the
sea, one toward the port of Bulhar
and the other toward Berbera, capt.
tai and chief port of the protecto-
rate.
The high command communique
was unusually brief. 1t said merely:
Continuing their advance in Brit
ish Somaliland, our troops have
established contact with heavy en-
emy concentrations"
Today's Communique came after
reports in Ethiopia that the British
had determined to make a stand
in defense of Berbera, counting on
airplanes and warships off the
coast, as well as native troops, to
aid them.
The Italians are driving on the
port of Berbera, on the Gulf of
Alden, from where they hope to
sieze control of the Red Sea and
sever British communications
through the Suez canal. Latest
dispatches said advance units had
taken the passes of Carrin and
Godajere and were pressing on
toward Berbera, 60 miles northward
An official Stefani news agency

offensive was in full progress, add
ing that a large part of the Italian

centrating attacks far beyond some
OF the German defensive areas. For
the present, Germany is increasing
the intensity of her air offensive
over the British Isles, but all reports
indicate Great Britain has no diff
ficulty in assembling her own planes
very quickly at places of attack.
The British, too, are allowing for
eign newspaper correspondents to
watch these air battles which they
would not do if damage were eX-
ceSSive and seriously harmful.
The British are not returning the
German massed blows now in like
measure, but are using much small
er squadrons for retaliatory action.
Apparently the British strategy is
to allow the Germans partly to ex-
haust themselves in the air espec-
tally through heavy losses of pilots,
while British strength is being con-
served. When Britain definitely es-
tablishes an offensive air superior
ity over Germany, then a reversal
of the situation may come.

yesterday as the German planes at

in hills above this port, watched

planes which came in like flies
against a vivid marine background

They raced across the white cliffs

tect their guns from splinters.
There was hardly a moment all

and a column of smoke, somewhere
near Calais, which told of a Royal

Whether the increasingly fierce

ROME. Aug. IL. CUP) A danger
Gus tension between italy an
Greece developed suddeny today
with an allegation that Greeks
had murdered an Albanian nation
alist leader and exhibited his sew
cred head in Greek border towns.
Diplomatic quarters, in their spec
ulation, went so far as to suggest
that if the situation continued to
develop unfavorably, it might be
up to Italy to decide whether the
incident would justify a march
against Greece.
The official Stefani news agency,
in a dispatch from Tirana last
night, alleged that Daut Hoggia,
who had long demanded the cesSion
to Albania of the province OF Cia-
muria, now part of Greece, had been
assassinated by Greeks on Albanian
soil near the frontier.
1t was alleged that Greeks after
killing Hoggia had cut off his head
and taken it to Greece where
they gave it to Greek authorities,
These authorities, the agency assert
ed, had the head exhibited at num-
erous villages as a means of intim-
idating Albanian revisionists.
Denounced Greek tyranny" the
agency commented of Albanian re-
visionists: "If love for Albania was
sufficient in other periods to give
them faith, today with the new
destiny of Albania, they have better
reason for hope"
In its Tirana dispatch, the agency
emphasized the political impor-
tance of the alleged assassination
1t praised Hoggia and said:
This is not the only episode
of Greece's policy of oppression.
Hoggia sealed with his blood his
patriotic life. But his sacrifice
