HOME COOKING HAZARDS
LET'S REMOVE THEM

Urbana-Today's busy kitch-
en- has the reputation of being
the most dangerous room in the
house. Many of the accidents
that occur are tied to the job
of food preparation. The ma
jority Of them result from care
less practices.
Miss Gladys Ward, home
management specialist, Univer-
sity of Illinois College of Ag-
riculture, reminds us that it
pays to take time to work safe
ly. Undue hurry and fatigue
are responsible for many home
accidents.
Take time to cover your
hand with a dry cloth before
opening a steaming kettle or
rooster. Remove the cover
away from you to permit the
steam to escape away from
your face and body. Make it a
rule to use a dry padded cloth
to lift any hot dish or utensil.

pans and pots turned toward
the back of the range.
Take time and care in using
grinders, heaters, slicers and
other power-driven appliances.
Be sure the extension cord is
of approved make and in good
condition. Turn off or remove
the plug before changing the
location of a fan or beaten.
Check the outlet from time to
time and have repairs made
promptly.
Use a can opener - not a
knife-to open cans. When u.s.

God called the nation OF
Israel into existence to be His
peculiar treasure above all
people," They were to be unto
Him "a kingdom of priests,
and an holy nation" This was
to be true of them, not only
when they were in possession
of the Land of Palestine, but
equally true of them during
the period of their dispersion.
Though the Jews today are
still blinded with unbelief, and
scattered throughout t h
world, they are, nevertheless,
unwittingly witnessing to the
veracity of the Bible, which
portrays their history, past,
present and future. Israel is yet
to become the head of all ma
tions, taking it's rightful lead
ership in proclaiming the Cos
pei of the Kingdom to the
great Gentle world. The
Church today, has the response
bility of reaching the Jews
with the Gospel of Christ in or
der to prepare them for their
worldwide mission.

The cause of all the worlds
troubles can be summed up in
one word - "disobedience."
Disobedience on the part of
Adam and Eve plunged the en-
tire human family into the
maelstrom of evil. God pro-
missed to make of Abraham's
seed "a great nation" God
promised Israel that if they
would "diligently hearken to
the voice of the Lord their
God, and do all His command
ments," He would "set them
above all the nations of the
earth;" that He would estab-
fish them ''an holy people un-
to Himself" and make them
"the head, and not the TAIL"
Why is it that the Jews are
the tail and not the head to-
day? Because of disobedience
to God, Israel and Judah were
uprooted from the Land and
taken captive to Assyria and

the Jews! The Prophet Jere-
miah also had declared God
would make them to be a re-
proach and a proverb, taunt
(sheninah) and a curse, in all
places" The Jews have suffer-
ed great persecution in social
ed Christian countries of Eu-
rope. Millions of Jews perish
ed in Russia, and over six mil
lion in Germany and Poland
during World War II. No Chris
tian should ever be guilty of
prosecuting the Jews.

When God called Abraham,
He gave him the promise that
Gin thy seed shall all the fami-
lies of the earth be blessed"
The word "seed" here applies
not only to the Coming Mes
siah, but looks forward to a
saved and regenerated Israel.
It is made plain in the Word
of God that the Jews will re-
turn to their Homeland, Pales-
tine, in unbelief, for the pur-
pose of building up Zion.) The
Zionist movement started by
Theodore Herzl in 1896 has
put forth stupendous efforts in
transforming Palestine into a
poisoning garden. Almost
seven hundred thousand Jews
have already returned to- Pal
estine. Ezekiel's vision of "the
dry bones" is being fulfilled.
The Jews will yet need to go
through Jacobs trouble" in
the period of tribulation which
follows the Rapture of the
saints. The Church today
needs to awaken to her SOL
emn responsibility of giving
the Gospel to the Jews. Many
Jews are responding to this
call and receiving Christ as
their Savior.

The judgment Of God fell
upon the Jewish nation in the
destruction of Jerusalem by
the Romans in 70 A. D. Over
a million Jews persisted during
that national calamity. Many
thousands of Jews were taken
captive to Rome. In the course
of the centuries, the Jews were
scattered to all parts of the
earth. They have held tena-
ciously to the doctrine of mono
theism, that held "God is one
Lord" but have persisted in
denying that this one Divine
Being manifests Himself in
Three Persons - Father, Son
and Holy Spirit. The prophet,
Hosea, long before, had fore
told that ''the children of Is
rael shall abide many days
without a king, and without

Ke|I Takes Loop Lead
While Scorers Stew
Over Williams Hits

There will be a slight pause In
the argument concerning Ted Will
liams' batting average. Temporal
rily, at least, it doesn't make too
much difference. for George Kell
of Detroit is the undisputed bat
ting leader no matter who is doing
the official scoring.
Last night Kell and the Mats
Sid Hudson cleared up the sltua-
tion-for a day, anyway-with
Hudson limiting the Sox slugger
to one hit in five tries and Kell
pounding Cleveland's Bob Feller
for three safeties in four trips.
The fact that Williams one
hit-a single driving in Dom Di
Maggie with the winning run in
the 11th inning-Was more i'm
portant to Boston than Kell's
three hits in losing cause against
Cleveland is beside the point.
Yankee Shift Causes "Stew."
, The "stew" which had some
observers giving" Kell the bat
ting lead over Williams before
last nights games. stemmed from
three plays at Boston's FenWay
Park against New York. The
Yankee shift against Ted calls
for Second Baseman Gerry Cole
man to move into short right field.
Three times this season Coleman
has bobbled drives off Williams
bat and on all three occasions the
official scorer credited the lanky
slugger with hit.
Two different scorers made the
decisions. reasoning that Coleman
was playing out of his normal
second base position-out on the
right field grass. If the ball was
mishandled on the infield turf 1t
would have been called an error
On the other hand. if the right
fielder had charged in and missed
the ball Williams would have been
given hit.
Scoring Point Disputed.
Dan Daniel, New York sports
scribe, took different view. He
wrote it was "a serious question il
they the scorers are justified in
their insistance that grounders hit
by Ted into that shift must be
handled cleanly or be scored as
hits"
All this contradictory thinking
meant quite a bit yesterday. Viii.
Iliams was leading the league with
a 1852 mark, while Kell had .351
Had the three disputed hits beer
charged as errors Williams woulc
have slipped to .345.
But Kell is in first place anyway
today with 1855 mark. Williams
one -in-five against Hudson last
night lowered him to $50.
