GOSPEL TALKS
THE DIVINE CHRIST

''Thou art the Christ, the Son OF
the living Matt. 1916
All the world is agreed that Jesus
was true man. Even agnostics and
atheists praise Christ as the great
example of righteousness. But the
Jesus of the Bible is not only true
man, great and good, but He is
also the exalted Lord, the Son of
the living God. He is truly God.
For making this assertion and
claim, the people of His time sought
to stone Him. The charge brought
against Him before Plate was that
He made Himself the Son of God.
Even today, Christ, the Son Of God,
is rock of offense to many. But
God says, "He that honoreth not
the Son, honoreth not the Father
which hath sent Him." John 5:23
This Jesus Christ of he Bible
the Godman-is the heaven-sent
Savior of the world. God, the Father,
out of His great love for the world,
sent Him to save lost men. Christ

ing made on the new 133-mile
110,000-volt transmission line
from Indianola to Memphis
at a cost of approximately
$325,00
This type lightning shield, re-
presenting the latest method de-
vised by modern engineering sci
ence, will largely eliminate service
interruptions caused by lightning
damage along this transmission
line, according to officials.
Drains Or Lightning
Lightning shields consist OF two
galvanized steel conductor wires
running parallel to and above the
current-carrying o d u c ors.
These shield wires are mounted
upon, vertical bayonet-type pole
extensions and large galvanized
steel horizontal arm. These wires
are adequately grounded at each
point OF support and their func-
ton Is to arrest and drain off
lightning surges before reaching
the power conductor wires.
The misunderstanding no.
O00-volt transmission line pro-
vides ample electric power to meet
the increased agricultural and in
dustrial power requirements Of
this area, and the shielding pro-
ject is scheduled for completion

Leitersburg Girl
Sees Olympic Games

1t. and Mrs. Rufin Barber, who
have been in Erding, Germany, since
October 1916, attended the recent
Olympic games in Switzerland.
Mrs. Barber, who is the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Rexford Hartle of
Leitersburg, wrote her parents that
she and her husband made the trip
to Switzerland with a group of
friends while the Lieutenant was
on leave. She wrote that seeing ST.
Moritz and the Olympics was a
great thrill to both of them, and she
gave a very vivid description of the
Olympic games and ceremonies. She
said that q countries paraded in the
grand opening ceremonies, and that
the parade took up the entire morn
ing.
During their trip, 1t and Mrs.
Barber had their first skiing exper-
fence. They went up the ski lift at
Holsters, arriving at the top after a
ten-minute trip, but there Mrs. Bar
ber's courage failed her, and she
decided to walk down, but the
Lieutenant put on his skis and
started off, He made the trip much
quicker than his wife did, but in the
descent he was compelled to jump
a fence and finally ended up with
his head buried in the snow.

Captain John E. Mcclure, of the
local U. S. Army and Air Force Re-
cruiting Office, announced today that
the United States Air Force is now
receiving applications for the next
class of Aviation Cadets to begin in
July of 1913 It is estimated that
some 5000 civilian college graduates
will join the aviation cadet program
for fight training in 1913. More
than 400 others will enter fight
training from the officers Candidate
School for enlisted men.
However, these will not be enough
to provide pilots for the supersonic
planes of tomorrow. The rapid ad-
vancements now being made by the
United States Air Force necessitate
