This Feast was for the pur-
pose of giving expression to
the sorrow in the hearts of the
people of Israel for their sins.
1t was a day of expiation and
reconciliation. On this day, the
High Priest went into the
"Holy of Holes" of the Sane
tuary to sprinkle the blood of
Atonement seven times upon
the Mercy Seat, over the Ark
of the Covenant; and on this
day all Israel acknowledged
their sins, while the High
Priest made confession of
same and obtained pardon and
blessing of the Lord for the
people. Two goats were select
ed by the High Priest: one for
Jehovah, which was sacrificed
and the blood sprinkled seven
times on the Mercy Seat; the
other goat, for Israel, was then
sent by the High Priest into the
wilderness, bearing all their
transgressions and iniquities,
never to return.
After the Rapture of the
saints, Israel as a nation will
pass through seven years of
Tribulation sorrow, and there
will be a national repentance
of their sin in the crucifixion
of Christ, their rejected Mes
siah. They will mourn bitterly
for Him, and will accept Him
as their Deliverer and &C.
knowledge Him as their King.
Then will occur the grating
of Israel into their own Olive
Tree and call Israel shall be
saved. With Israel converted
and saved as a nation, Christ
will begin His Millennial reign
of a Thousand Years, during
which will be observed, from
year to year," the last of the
Seven Feasts = the Feast of
Tabernacles.

The first four of the "Seven
Set Feasts of Jehovah" have al
ready had their fulfillment in
the great events connected
with the First Advent of our
Lord Jesus Christ, and in His
death and resurrection and
the sending forth of the Holy
Spirit on the day of Pentecost.
Three Feasts yet remain to be
fulfilled.
There was an extended
period of time between the
completion of the first four
Feasts and the last three. This
period is passed over in 81
lence in this chapter (Leviti-
Gus 23), with the exception of
verse 20, which states that this
interval was to be one of reap
ing, ending with the cleaning
of the harvest. The end of the
age will be the time of harvest
and cleaning.
I THE FEAST OF TRUM-
PETS - Verses 20 -25;
Numb. 29:1-6; Ps. 80: rs;
John 14:1-3; I Cor. Is ISL
So; I Thess. 4:16-18.
The three remaining Feasts
were to be observed in the Fall
during the Seventh Month of
the sacred year, which was the
First Month of the civil year.
The first day of this month was
to be observed as a Sabbath. It
was ushered in by the blowing
of Trumpets. These trumpets
were made of silver, given by
the people as atonement
money for the Tabernacle, and
their "blowing" was a glad
and joyful sound throughout
the camp of Israel. Their pur-
pose was to gather the hosts
and make preparation for the
onward march. These trumpet
calls always reminded Israel
of the high calling given to
them as a nation by God.
The Feast of Trumpets, how
ever, has a special meaning: it
refers to the re-gathering of
Israel and their return to Pal
estine after the Rapture of the
saints. Israel will then be
brought out of obscurity back
to their own Land. Ever since
God ordained these religious
festivals the Feast of Trum-
pets has reminded Israel of

The Feast of Tabernacles
was the most joyous of all the
seven .Feasts of Jehovah, as
it depicted the glory of Jeho-
yah reigning over all the
earth. AS the Feast of the
First Fruits told of the begin
ming of the harvest, this Feast
told of the close of the har-
vest and the ingathering of oil
and wine. The three seasons Of
the year, with their cor
responding harvests: tn e
Spring with it's barley harvest
the Summer with it's harvest
of wheat and the Autumn
with it's products of oil and
wine-were used in the Mosaic
ritual to set forth wildly Gods
Plan of Redemption for the
human race.
This Feast was the climax
of all the Feasts. It was OBJ
served for seven days, and was
celebrated by the making of
booths of palms and willows,
in which the Israelites dwelt
for the period of the festival,
reminding them of the sorrows
and triumphs they had during
their journey from Egypt to
the Promised Land. After its
Inauguration in Israel, the
Feast soon fell into disuse; and
it remained for Nehemiah to
restore it's observance to the
nation. One of the most re-
markable prophecies of the
observance of the Feast of
Tabernacles after Christ's
Coming in Glory, is given by
the Prophet Zechariah. It was
on ''the last day" of the Feast
of Tabernacles that our Lord
gave utterance to His pro-
phecy concerning the Holy
Spirit, saying, eff any man
thirst, let him come unto Me
and drink. He that believeth
on Me, from his inmost being

When Is A Passport Illegal To Use?

SEATTLE, (P) - Customs au- thorities are considering the case of a Canadian who was picked up 10 miles off the Washington coast in a steel canoe, bound from Vic toria, B. C., to San Francisco.
 The surprised crew of fishing vessel sighted him padding along off shore. A coast guard cutter picked him up. He had five gal Ions of water along.
 He gave his name as Owen Douglas Young and said he was a Canadian citizen and logger.
 T figured if I got tired padding, I could pull into shore and get a train" he said.
 He carried passport issued at Ottawa and properly visaed for the United States.
 Customs collector Howard Mac Gowan said it looked to him that if Young entered the United States illegally it was under compulsion of American authorities. He said there is nothing illegal about ca noeing off the coast and San Fran cisco would have been a legal port of entry-if he had made it.
 The coast guard said Young re- ported relatives in Chicago.

Most of Research
 Funds Spent On Civilian Contracts


 that a majority of the cost of the program is spent on contracts with civilian organizations - with uni versailles and other non-profit agencies for research and with in dustrial firms for development.
 The Air Force, which celebrates its first year of autonomy on Air Force Day tomorrow, received re- search and development appropri- ations of $225, 100000 for the cur rent fiscal year ending next June 30.
 Approximately 80To of this sum will be spent on contracts with civ ilian organizations, 15% for the pay of civilian employees, and 5o for the maintenance of facilities and the purchase of modern test equipment.
 Entirely new fields of research have been introduced in recent years, and in many of them ade- quate basic knowledge has been lacking. For this reason, the Air Force has obtained the cooperation of civilian scientific agencies to provide the necessary fundamental research.
 Major General Lawrence C. Craigie, director of research and development at USAF headquar- ters said recently that "any future war will, in the main be one of materiel." For this reason, a con- stant study is being made of creat ing, testing, and studying new weapons, planes, tactical proceed ures, and every type of equipment used by the Air Force.
 Besides it's own research it fi- nances with civilian agencies, the Air Force frequently consults with research and development groups in other military and government al agencies. The Air Force is charged with the responsibility of developing all equipment peculiar | to the Air Force, since it is the predominant user of such equip ment.
 1 The Air Force program is now conducting studies in all-Weather flying guided missiles, electronics, climatic pro ects, supersonic speeds, aero-medical problems, aircraft structures, armament, photography, power plants, pro- pellors, landing gear, communica- tions systems, and various other materials.
 Many projects have been com pleted during this first year just ending, in which the Air Force has been co-equal with the Army and the Navy in the National Military Establishment. The Sikorsky Ills helicopter established an altitude record of 18,85O feet with new type of blade developed by the Air Force. Parachutes are now being produced that can drop a 75-milli- meter howitzer or a jeep from cargo aircraft. A straight-line in- dicator has been developed which will insure mapping plane of flying straight line for l25 miles without deviating more than 250 feet from a preset course.

 Coast guard headquarters here reported that the cutter Clover and navy tug both put out from Kodiak in answer to the distress call, but were turned back by stormy weather and the weight of ice which gathered on the rigging, and decks of the two craft.
 Weather permitting, they will attempt again today to reach the scene.
 The Spencer's silence does no necessarily mean it has gone down, the Coast Guard said. Un- der severe icing conditions the tender may have been unable to transmit radio messages.
 The small craft went aground near midday Dec. 31. The number of men aboard and the tenders home port, have not been learned.

Union To Fight Taft-Hartley Law To Highest Court

WASHINGTON, (P)-The first union to be held guilty of an un- fair labor practice under the Taft Hartley act pledged Saturday to fight the case all the way to the U. S. Supreme Court if neces- Sary."
 Herbert G. B. King, attorney for local "A of the AFL carpenters union at Chattanooga, Tenn said he will go the limit in opposing a ruling handed down here Friday by J. J. Fitzpatrick, an examiner of the national labor relations board.
 Fitzpatrick held that local "A engaged in a secondary boycott, banned by the new labor law as an unfair labor practice, by calling strike of union carpenters when non-union flooring installerS came to work along side them on a Chattanooga home remodeling job.
 The filing of unfair labor prac- tice charges was limited under the old Wagner act to those against employers only. The Taft-Hartley law permitted them to be filed against unions, too, for the first time.
 In another precedent-setting de- cision, federal judge Stephen w. Brennan issued the first injunc- ton under the Taft Hartley law a Utica, N. Y., Friday against local 294 of the AFL teamsters union.
 The injunction restraining the local from continuing six alleged unfair labor practices-including one of so-called feather bed ding" or requiring an employer to pay for work not performed until the NLRB here can decide if the local was unfair"
 Local 294 was accused of de- manding that the Conway Express company of Pittsfield, Mass, pay the union an amount equal. to the wages of a union member as pen alty for allowing non-union member to drive a truck from New Britain, Conn.,, to Cleveland, O., last September.
