The Borrowings OF Jesus

God gave Him no home when he
came to this earth,
Not even a place for His head;
So they borrowed a stable, the
place of His birth,
And a manger was used for His
bed.
They borrowed the water He

BEAD. Gov 2
But the love, that He gave was
His right divine,
As throngs on the mountain
were fed.
They made Him a pulpit out I'm
der the sky;
The boat, it was borrowed, you
see,
But the message was His, il
came from on high
AS He taught them in old Cali
lee.
He asked them to borrow the
colt that he rode
To the city that looked for a
King,
But the cross that He bore was
His heavy load.
And the crown with its thorns
and its sting.
An old gpper room. it was Dor
rowed, you know,
And the table, by friends it
was spread,
But the wine was His blood, so
freely to flow,
And His body was broken for
bread
They. laid Him to rest in another
mans tomb,
The grave clothes, His friends
did supply,
But the angels were His, they
rolled back the stone,
For Gods only Son could not
die.
The things He had borrowed were
all given back,
Not in fishes, nor grave clothes.
nor home,
But life In abundance He gave
without lack,
Within them Gods kingdom
had come.

68 LABORATORIES
 GIVEN APPROVAL
Special Tests May Be COn= ducted at Waterbury
 Station, State Says

At the end of the fiscal year, June 30, 194O, there were 68 laboratories in Connecticut approved to carry out one or more types of official di- agnostic examinations, Marriage License Law blood tests, water and sewage analyses and meteorological examinations of milk and cream, the weekly bulletin of the State Depart ment of Health reported today.

Approval is conditional upon the result of inspections made by the department to make sure that standards are met for accept able techniques and proper equip ment, and that those in charge are properly qualified by training and experience.
 Among the approved were labora- tories in 27 hospitals and sanatoria health departments, 10 colleges or universities, dairieS and 18 pri- vate commercial or water company laboratories. The Bridgeport, Hart ford and New Haven department ot health laboratories were approved for all four types of tests.

BRITISH CREWS
 SAIL FOR CANADA
Destroyers May Be Given Names, Associated With
 Colonial America
BY FREDERICK KUH

United Press Stan COrrespOndent)
 London, Sept. 4 = (U.P9 = Brit ish navy crews are on the way to Canada to take over 50 American destroyers which the United States has agreed to transfer to Great Bri- tain in return for naval bases, it was understood today.
 Immediately upon their arrival in Great Britain, the destroyers will be fitted with belts to protect them from magnetic mines and with anti submarine detectors, to enable them to take their part in the defense of the British Isles.
 An important part of the British acquisition was that the American destroyers would free newer British destroyers for offensive action, not only in northern waters but, it was believed, in the Mediterranean. Joy Is UncOncealed
 There was unconcealed jubilation all over Great Britain, among off, cials, newspapers and the public.
 The view seemed to be that Amer ican warships and war planes would be welcome in British empire terri tory and that by transferring the destroyerS the United States had at once given valuable material sup port to Britain in its lone fight and had let the dictators know its stand.
 It has already been suggested that the American destroyers be given names associated with colonial America.
 Prime Minister Winston Churchill is expected to make an important statement in the house of commons tomorrow on the trade.
 For the moment, BritonS hailed it as the most concrete evidence yet of United States friendship for Britain in her hour of great need. The agreement increased President Rcosevelt's already great popularity and intensified British discussion of his chances for reelection.
 Clinched Swap"
 The Daily Mail reported that a telephone talk between President Roosevelt at the White House and Churchill at No. 10 Downing street, his official residence, clinched the destroyer-naval bases trade.
 Newspapers in their comment showed what the country thought We get 50 U. s. destroyers; U. s. gets eight bases in Atlantic, Fifty U. S. Destroyers Ours!", Fifty U. s. Destroyers to Join Our Navy" and 'U. s. to Send 50 Destroyers at Once to Britain" were some of the headlines that stretched across the main news pages.
 The papers predicted that the trade would strengthen the blockade of the German dominated continent and help to combat the submarine menace as well as freeing modern British destroyers for other work.
