THOUGHTS ON SKI FANATICS

This is the biggest skiing season
America has ever had. You can't
look out of any window above the
IMason-Dixon line without seeing
flock of "schussboomers" zooming
by in various positions of complete
instability.
| A ski enthusiast is a fellow who is
happiest when he has both feet off
the ground and is wearing the facial
expression of a parachute trooper
who suddenly realizes he jumped
without his chute.
He is a guy who doesn't mind
where he is so long as he is not
rightside up.
, More and more gals are taking it
up. A female ski jumper is a girl
who thinks the laws of gravity were
written by Benny Goodman in col
Elaboration with Olsen and Johnson.
She is snowbunny who doesn't
care where she goes, provided her
destination is vague and her arrival
abrupt and embarrassing.
Put a damsel on a ski slide and
you are witnessing demonstration
in bizarre behavior hitherto re-
served for escapes via the icy roof
by inmates of the Home for Way
ward Girls, all making their get
away in the belief couple of bed
Stats made an ideal pair of shoes.
She goeth where she isteth
and she lambeth where it hurt
eth.
Once upon time you could 60 to
the snoW-hillS Of this country and
find only ski jumpers who knew how
to do it. Today every slope consti-
tutes convention site for bevy Of
beginners, all of whom do not know
where their next fracture is coming
from.
They confuse the take-off from a
snowy peak as the same as a leap
from a clearinghouse attic. Every
thing is jake with them if they come
down the same season, with no
navigable parts missing.
AS long as ski artist had to
climb back up the hill there was
no mass participation. But for
the last few years the ski slides
have had mechanical tOwrOpes
to haul them back, and now
everybody can play, whether for
fun, fresh air, suicide or to settle
q bet.

You say you can't eat breakfast?
Nonsense. OF course, if you're one
of those skip-breakfast people, it
may take you a little time to get
used to eating it, but little by little
you can do it and really like it. It's
worth it, if you feel better and can
work better, isn't it?
Afraid of gaining weight, you say?
No, not if breakfast includes a citrus
fruit, soft boiled or poached egg, dry
toast and coffee or tea without cream
or sugar. You won't have nearly as
hard a time resisting the snacks
which put on weight if you're forti-
fed with a nicely balanced break
fast.
We have variety in lunches and
dinners, why not plan to have it in
breakfasts? 1t will make them ever
so much more interesting.
Prepare eggs in several different
styles, scrambled, poached, soft
boiled, coddled, fried, baked or
creamed. Have interesting breads
and spreads.
Don't forget that meats add va
riety, too. Try sliced or frizzled ham
as well as bacon, sausage, canadian
bacon or dried beef.
Then, too. you can find interesting
variations for pancakes and wafdes.

LYNN SAYS:
Remember These Facts
About Yeast Breads

Rising time on bread or rolls usu-
ally follows this pattern: Dough
made with one cake of yeast and two
cups of liquid will take three hours
to rise. Each subsequent rising
takes less time.
Rising may be hastened by using
more yeast. However, not more
than two cakes of yeast should be
used in the average recipe for fear
of giving too much yeast flavor.

rich man rode, asking, Under-
standest thou what thou readest?"
He was quick to give his witness.
That is the first lesson Of the
lesson.
AND THE MAN LISTENED
VX7HEN we faithfully obey the
w Holy Spirit, he enables us to
effectively witness for Jesus. We
cannot be effective witnesses If we
rely upon our own wisdom and our
own judgment. The boy in your
street who does not know Jesus will
listen to your story if you go in the
same glad obedience to the COM
mand of the Spirit of God as did
Philip.
A lad told me this story. He had
a neighbor who had never been to
Sunday school, and he wanted to
enlist this friend. He thought
about it seriously. But he was not
quite sure of himself. And then he
prayed, asking God to direct him.
The next day the boy asked him,
''What are you doing Sunday
morning?" With this opening the
lad invited his neighb0r to come
along with him, and the result
was that the little neighb0r, of an
other race, accepted Christ as his
Saviour and is today a regular
attendant at church and Sunday
school.
TO WHOM SHALL WE WITNESS?
THE question now emerges. To
L whom shall we bear this wit
ness? We cannot all go as mission
aries, as did DR.. Schweitzer. Most
of us must remain at home and
carry on the work of our everyday
pursuits Of life.
But every Christian can wit
ness. First, to those Immediately
about us. In every community in
our beloved country are people
who do not know Jesus Christ as
Saviour AMI Lord. We can witness
TO them, not to all of them, but to
some of them, perhaps to one Of
them. And / would remind you
that if you miss that particular
person to whom you may be di-
rected by the Holy Spirit, he or
she may never know about the
SaviOur's love.
Second, we can share in the send
ing of the missionaries to earth's
remotest bounds, through our gifts.
/ delight to think that I am in part
nership with many great men and
women on foreign fields, through
my gifts and through my prayers.
Third, we can witness through
personal correspondence with peO-
pie in other lands. The present
far-reaching media of relief for
stricken peoples of the world af-
fords a wonderful opportunity for
this very witness. Ask your pastor
for the name of some person your
age in one Of the lands to which
your church is sending relief, and
write that person letter. telling
Of your joy in serving God.
The eunuch went on his way re-
joicing. Why? Because Philip had
taught him the way of salvation. He
had been used as an effective wit
ness in leading a man of another
race to experience the peace that
passeth all understanding.
And Jesus is saying to US today,
$50 send you"

like our saviour Jesus did.
The lesson passage is found IN
Acts a:26-39, and is the story OF
Philip, leaving his very successful
evangeistic campaign in Samarla
to follow the lead of the Holy Spirit
into the way that goeth down from
Jerusalem unto GAIA, which is des-
ert. There he found man in search
Of God, and through his witness the
man was saved.
THE STORY OF JESUS
THIS man was not OF Pnll1p
l. race. He was an Ethiopian. But
he was a man. And God loves every
man of every race and OF every
condition of life. Jesus never did
meet an unimportant person, nor
will any true follower of his. Jesus
said, "As the Father has sent Me,
even so send I you," John 2O:21.
This man was reading in the
Book Of Isaiah, where the prophet
was foretelling how Jesus would
suffer for the sins Of the whole
world. He could not understand
the wonderful words. And the
Spirit directed Philip to go and
join himself to the eunuch. Philip
ran to the chariot in which the
rich man rode, asking, "Under-
standest thou what thou readest?"
He was quick to give his witness.
That is the first lesson Of the
lesson.

French Premier Wins
Vote Of Confidence
BY the Assoeioted Press

PARIS, Nov. 24.-Parliament
voted its confidence in Premier
Henri Queuille's middle -the-road
government today. The official
count was 317 to 164, with 43 abb
stentions.
The bulk Of the vote against Mr..
Queuille was by Communist depu-
ties. If the vote had gone the other
way. the cabinet would have re-
signed.
The vote rejected a Communist
demand for an investigation of gov
eTnment charges that the COMM
form ordered and helped pay for
the current coal and dock strikes.
The Communists also wanted a
probe into alleged foreign financial
support Of LIE 'Populaire, the news
paper of the progovernment So
cialist Party.
The Communist group Is the chief
organized opposition to the govern
ment in the National Assembly.
Supporters of Gen. Charles de
Gaulle abstained from today's vote.
They are against both the Commu-
nists and MIR. Queuille's government.
The De Gaullists complain that
the government has been too easy
on the Communists. Justice Min
lister Andre Marie replied earlier in
the day by telling a cabinet meeting
that he had started criminal pro-
ceedings against unknown persons
for inciting the army to mutiny.
Communists have recently been
repeating the slogan: France will
