TN another way Joshua's wars are
type of the war OF our best

quite conquer Palestine In Judges
l the repeated phrase strikes the
eye. did not drive out :" In
the very center Of Palestine, for
example, what we now know as the
city Of Jerusalem remained a hostile
strong-point for centuries after
Joshua.
The whole story of the Israel
ties after Joshua shows how i'm
perfect the conquest was at
first, and archaeology has I'M
derscored the record of the
Bible. Yet II Is true TO say that
there was real conquest Of
Canaan. The country was won,
though there was vast deal Of
mopping-up TO be done. This Is
again a parable. The victorious
life is not the same as the sin
less life.
The majority Of Christians believe
there was one sinlesS life but only
one. We have a right TO call a man
good tas the Bible doeS) without
meaning that he is perfect. Some
people are needlessly discouraged at
this point II we expect the victori.
Gus life to be so completely victori.

At the end of this month the ship
will leave for Vancouver, 3. c. to

make regular runs between Fin

The vessel was previously used
in runs from Seattle to Alaska for
two years. Later it was idled by
engine trouble and repairs were
hampered by the fact that the
vessel does not have standard U. S.

with an unusual twist in Sc

Immediately sent a crew of

1t is repeatedly the first time a
Finnish company has purchased a
ship of this type in the Pacific
Northwest. 1t is also the first
time that an entire crew has been
sent over by air from Finland to
the NV, says Harry Jarvinen,
general manager of Where-To-Go
Travel Service, Seattle, which
made the novel arrangement.
There was a dramatic prelude to
the agreement, too. The Finnish
firm sent over the captain-to-be,
Mr.. Laitakari, and a chief engi-
neer, to look over the ship and
try to purchase it. A Danish firm,
with a head start, was seeking to
arrange the purchase through a
Seattle broker. The Firms won
out a day before the Danish firm
was scheduled to make the deal,
says Jarvinen.
