Heat Becoming
More Popular
Bx D. IA. Derwin

One of the newest methods Of
heat distribution for homes LIS the
radiant Dashboard.
This new style In heating by
means of radiant Dashboard is one
answer to those furniture rear
ranging moods many housewives
get into at this time of year.
Since the radiant Dashboard elimi-
mates the standing radiators.
desks, tables and chairs can be
moved not only closer TO the win
dow but to whatever position is
desired.
This heating system is not only
space saving but also inconspicu-
Gus and provides greater comfort
through floor-level heat. 1t seems
to be on the way to greater popu-
larity.
BY replacing conventional
wooden baseboards as well as
standing radiators. radiant base
boards free valuable floor space
and thus allow more hexibility for
arrangement Of furniture.
Because these radiant base
boards are easy to install and in
stallation requires no change in
building plans. they can be used
both In new homes and In mod
ernizing and remodeling present
ones.
The Dashboard Is designed for
use with hot water heating sys-
TENS. 1t distributes heat through
out the room both by convection
and radiation.
. While 1t is usually necessary to
install this radiant Dashboard
only along the cold or exposed
outer wall Of room. parts and
connections are provided for ex-
tending 1t around corners or the
entire room when desired or
necessary.

Notion of Man or
Word of God?

NNE DIFFERENCE between the
~ true and false prophets, of
course, was that the false ones
passed out their own ideas, while
the true ones gave voice to the
ideas of God. Some of the false
prophets even dug down into what
we now call the subconscious, and
told their dreams as if they meant
something.
The false prophets of our own
times are still the people who draw
on their own minds, even on their
day-dreams, to furnish messages
for the people. The gypsy dream
books are still with us. Astrologers
flourish, and not always on the side
streets. All sorts of queer cults
profess to tell us what is coming
next and what we ought to do.
Before we take a modern
"prOphet" seriously we should
ask: Is what ne is saying his
own idea or Gods idea? In this
goth century after Christ, it
should be easier to know Gods
ideas are than it was q CEN
turtles ago in Jeremiah'S time.
For now that Christ has come, we
can safely check all the self-styled
prophets with the message and the
mind of Christ.

Is the voice of the people
the voice of God?

THE FALSE PROPHETS were
L always popular, the true ones
seldom. Mere unpopularity does not
prove man a true prophet; but
you may be sure that if a man
says only what people like to hear,
always tickling the ears and feed
ing the pride of his listeners, he is
no true spokesman for God.
Not that the true prophet is
always insulting his hearers.
The Lords prophets often speak
comforting and welcome words,
to be sure. But a steady out
pouring of soothing is not
what we would expect from
genuine prophet.
Man is often most proud when
he is most wrong; and then God has
to sweep the man down. Don't take
too seriously the men who merely
reinforce your prejudices and shore
up your pride; they are more likely
fake prophets than true. The voice
of the people is not always the will
of God.

Time is the Test

Kline Is lne 1cSt
That great prophet Moses (Deut.
49, had already given practical
test of a true prophet Does what
he says turn out to be true? Can he
really see into tomorrow? Alas, we
may have to wait until tomorrow
to find out for sure; but tomorrow
always comes, and when it comes,
the prophets of today will be shown
up for what they are, true or false.
Time is the test. Not, Is it likely?
Truth and Right are Twins
DERHAPS the worst feature Of
the false prophets who were
Jeremiah's competitors was their
real immortality. Their course is
