He has made us as we are with
our several needs, weaknesses
and proneness to wander away
from the fold. Having made us
as we are He knows how and has
promised to provide all the nee
essary things enabling us to full
fill His holy and wise will for us
in this life.
And now last of all, let us en-
phasiza the fact that the Good
Shepherds heart-seat of affec-
ton, love-is fixed on His sheep.
He loves His sheep and has given
His very life for them. His love
for the sheep is a sympathetic
love in that He is touched with
the feeling of our infirmities.
His love for the sheep is faith
full love in that having loved
them He loved them to the end.
His love for the sheep is a
thoughtful and practical love in
that He feeds them, protects
them and guides them by His
Word, by His Spirit and by His
providence. His love for the
sheep is a saving love in that He
will save unto the uttermost all
those who come unto the Father
by Him.
Therefore will not we fear,
though the earth be removed, and
though the mountains be carried
into the midst of the sea" for
God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble"
psalms 46:1-2).

Lesson In Brief
BY REV. b. A.. MEEKS
Subject: Jesus, the Good Shep-

Subject: Jesus, the Good Shep-
herd"
Bible Passage: John 10:1-30.
Golden Text: II am the good
shepherd: the good shepherd
giveth his life for the sheep
John 10:11.
The golden text for our lesson
today is one of the seven great
Il ANS" of Johns Gospel. It is
around this text that our lesson
is woven. Jesus is not only A
good shepherd, but He is THE
Good Shepherd. He is good in
the sense of goodness itself, that
is, free from all impurities. There
is not the least faint of sin about
Him. Also, Jesus is good in the
sense of value and skill. There
is none so skil1ful and faithful.
There is no such feeder, leader,
protector and healer of souls as
He.
Let us compare Him with the
shepherd who kept watch over
his flock on the Judean hills.
Shepherd is a favorite expression
in the Scriptures and is one which
Jesus delighted in as a figure of
speech designated His office of
love and care for His people. Je-
sus is to us what the Judean shep-
herd was to his flock of sheep,
The shepherds eyes, ears and
mind were alert at all times as
he cared for his flock. May we
use these same terms in relation
to our Good Shepherd?
First of all, the eyes of our
Good Shepherd are open at all
times as He watches over us as
His sheep. "The eyes of the
Lord are upon the righteous
Psalms 34:15). "All things are
naked and opened unto the eyes
of him with whom we have to
do" (Hebrews 4:13). It brings
joy and comfort to the people of
God to know that the eyes of Je-
sus is always watching them and
knows all the pitfalls and dangers
ahead, not only is His eyes on
the sheep, but also on their enc
niles. He is conscious of the good
intentions and good deeds of the
sheep as we'll as the evil inten-
ton and evil ways of the enemy.
The ears of the Good Shepherd
are open to the cry of His sheep.
The eyes of the Lord are upon
the righteous and his ears are
open unto their cry'' psalms "a:
l5). Just as the shepherds ears
were open to the distressing crv
OF the little lost lamb out on the
mountain side so is the Good
Shepherds ears open to the dis
tressing cry of His sheep who find
themselves in sorrow, trouble or
any proplexing situation.
The mind of the Good Shepherd
IS alert to the condition and cir
cumstances under which His
sheep are living. He knows His
sheep and can distinguish them
from those who are not sheen.
Not only so, but He can disting-
ulsh one sheep from another call
ing them by their names. For
the Good Shepherd has called
them, drawn them and is making
them conform more and more to
the example set by Himself
Yes, Jesus knows us individually
IN our several needs, relationships
circumstances and situations. Oh,
dangers and need of food, cloth
ing, protection and leadership is
clearly known bv the Lord II,

 Swing is in" and now you can go ahead and tap out Don't Get Around Much Any More" with tIle best of them-for Jack Hymns Vic- tory Yard Orchestra is Kicking out hits of the day in the Machine Shop for your pleasure during the lunch half hour.
 We did bit Of Investigating and rounded up several headline facts
 The Band has been called - "Jack Flynn's Victory Yard Or chestra rightfully so-since he is the chap who had the idea, and effected the organization of this group of musicians.
 Talking with Jack, we learned that arranging and scheduling tall ent is not new to him. Not long ago, while in Indiana at Army's Camp Atterberry, discovering a scarcity of recreational occupation for the men, he organized a va riety of entertainment and assem- bled a small orchestra. Jack was a sergeant at the time and consid- cred such plans would be helpful for morale--so, he believed here at Electric Boat Co.,, a good Swing Band might provide certain stimu- lation for employees and real re- taxation from their work.
 There is some outstanding talent in this band
 If you've danced at Ocean Beach, you know what Ray Jofln- son can do with an orchestra when it comes to pulling off, sweet and swing ryhthms-He has toured the New England states with his own band and with the Victory Yard group, he's contributing some of his genius on the trombone.
 Just for the fun of it, we asked Ray what number the band seemed to click on and enjoy playing most at rehearsals-off hand, he couldn't remember the title of the piece, but after he had hummed few bars, we recognized the latest and pop ular bit of meter music"-"Paper Doll" This is good to hear any, where and a juke box favorite to- day!
 And then, the Benvenuti brothers Dick and Gus-both noted muSi- clans in dance band circles.
 Dick at one time arranged or- chestrations for Franke Carle in Horace Heidt,s Band-He's studied music in Italy and, we learn, can use a trumpet. accordian and vio- lin, all to advantage. He's recog- nized, though, for his piano rendi- tionS (style of Vincent Lopez).

Benvenuti. He's been with Nal Hallett's orchestra, Jerry Johnson and others. The saxaphone's his ''buSineSS" so you're listening to Al, the beSt-you can be sure!
 We chatted with others in the orchestra - among them Milton Clark-who in the past has had 16 years as a professional saxaphone player and who, for few years, was with Harry Neilson's Band in Norwich. His daughter. age 13, also likes music and studies the piano.
 Here's a little novelty for you! Two girls are members of the Band-they've not had much ex- perience of this kind aS yet, but they're hitting them off, with the best. They are Helen Motowy (cIar- ineD and Betty Broitzman (trum- peD Both operate milling machines in the Big Machine Shop. They are quiet and reserved in manner, but very enthused about the Victory Yard Orchestra-it's obvious to see. they re working for Sometnlng goOd with this group.
 Lastly, music and dancing are fun; so are they healthfut - to dance is to keep fit. So, if you've been operating a machine in the morning or doing little strenu- ouS Wefding-come out to the Ma chine Shop in the Victory Yard at 12 o'clock and enjoy the two sal utary benefits of relaxation and pleasure. See you there!
