la thousands of average
American homes there are
now two automobiles —“a
car for her, too,’’ so there
may be transportation for
the family while “he” drives
away to work.
And the family car has such
an infinite degree of useful
ness! Downtown shopping,
taking the children to school,
afternoon calls, meeting
trains and the many addi
tional trips that must be
made to and from the house
as a part of every day’s
routine.
No other car is so admirably
suited to a woman's require
ments as the Most Beautiful
Chevrolet.
With striking new bodies by
Fisher, and finished in pleas
ing colors of lustrous, lasting
Duco, it provides in abund
ant measure the comfort,
charm and elegance that
women admire in a motor
car. It is easy to start because
of its Delco-Remy electric
starting system —famous the
world over for its excellence.
It is easy to stop because of
powerful, over-size brakes.
And it is easy to drive and
park because of a modern
three - speed transmission,
smodth-acting disc clutch,
and a semi-reversible steer
ing gear that gives finger-tip
steering.
Visit our showroom and see
the Most Beautiful Chev
rolet. Note the wide variety
of body types. Mark their
sweeping lines and carefully
executed details. And then
ask us to explain the easy
terms on which a Chevrolet
may be purchased— terms
that include the lowest com
bination of handling and
financing charges available
anywhere.
AN INDUSTRIAL ANOMALY
Everybody knows that the depres
sion which in recent years has af
fected most of American agriculture
is broadly the result of over-produc
tion. However illiogical it may seem
that a too great responsiveness of the
earth in bringing forth its riches is
liable to mean poverty instead of
wealth, it is a fact. In a logically or
ganized society, doubtless it would
not be true. The greater the produc
tion of wealth, the greater the well
being ought to be; only, it doesn’t fall
out that way.
The price of wheat has been de
pressed because too much wheat was
grown. Last year the price of cotton
went smash, because there were
4,000,000 bales too much cotton. Now'
another industry, quite unrelated to
agriculture, but operating under the
same inexorable laws of supply and
demand, confronts the same situation.
Less than a year ago people were
wondering whence would come petro
leum needed to keep pace with per
sistenly increasing demand for it.
Then set in a period of increasing
production. New and rich oil fields
were discovered; new production was
brought in from lower strata of older
fields; better methods of relining, in
cluding particularly a wider use of
the “cracking process.” suddenly com
pletely changed the situation. Today,
instead of a possible shortage, the in
dustry’s very rich s in production, its
constantly better processes, have
brought to market such a huge output
that the demand is outrun, and prices
have for some time been on the down
grade. So the Industry finds itself
traveling a road precisely parallel to
that on which agriculture has been
going.
Os course, such conditions inevita
bly remedy themselves in time. Both
these industries are fundamentally
sound, and certain of an expanding
market which will absorb that output
and assure reasonable profits. This
country will never be impoverished
by reason of a temporary excess of its
riches.
The contention of a German scien
tist that earthworms sing is confirm
ed through observations by Dr. Ru
dolph Rudemann of the New York
State Museum. Whether, as Dr.
Rucdemann, believes, the worms pro
duce the sound by dragging the fine
bristles under their bodies over a
hard object at the edge of their bur
rows, or whether they do the singing
with their mouths, is not yet known.

Prejudice.
The missionary program of tho
church having broadened, to Include
the Samaritans, we see in this lesson
It still widening and embracing the
Gentiles. Through the conversion of
Cornelius, the “middle wall of parti
tion” was broken down (Eph. 2:4).
I. Cornelius (10:1, 2),
1. His official position (v. 1).
He wns u Itoman officer o'er a com
pany of 100 soldiers.
2. His character (v. 2).
(1) A devout, pious man. (2) He
was a praying man. (3) He wns
charitable. He gave much alms. (4)
He whs respected by his family.
11. The Supernatural Preparation
for the Transition of ths Gospel to tho
Gentiles (10:3-33).
This was of divine arrangement. No
barrier is too great to prevent the
coining together of persons whom the
Lord desires to meet In order to
bring this about:
1. Two visions were given.
(1) The vision of Corneliu* (vv.
3-8).
While engaged in prayer, an angel
of God announced that his prayer and
alms had come before God as a me
morial, and instructed film to send to
Joppa for Peter who would tell him
what to do.
(2) The vision of Peter (vv. 9-16).
This took place while Peter was
praying (v. 9). He saw a certain ves
sel containing clean and unclean ani
mals let down from heaven, and heard
the command, “Rise, Peter, kill and
eat.” Peter protested that he had
never eaten any unclean thing. God
replied, “What God hath cleansed, that
call not thou common.”
2. A messenger sent from Cor
nelius (vv. 17-22).
Peter was greatly perplexed over
what he had seen, but not for tong,
for messengers from Cornelius made
Inquiry at the gate for him. The
spirit Informed Peter of the matter
and bade him go, nothing doubting.
8. The meeting of Cornelius and
Peter (vv. 23-33).
(1) Peter took six witnesses along
(v. 23).
(2) Cornelius waiting for Peter
(v. 24).
He called together Ida kinsmen and
near friends.
(3) Cornelius about to worship
Peter (vv. 25, 26).
Peter repudiated his act and pro
tested that he was but a man.
(4) The reciprocal explanation (vv.
27-33).
111. Pater's Sermon (vv, 34-43).
1. The Introduction (vv. 84, 35).
He showed that God is no respecter
of persons. This does not mean that
Cornelius was already In a state of
grace, thereby saved, but that he was
eligible to hear the gospel and ac
cept the terms of salvation.
2. His discourse (vv. 36-43).
In the discourse he touches briefly
upon the mission of Jesus, showing
that by means of His baptism and
anointing with the Holy Spirit, He was
qualified for His work as mediator.
He then exhibited the work of Christ:
(1) In His life (vv. 30-39).
It was one of beneficence. He went
about doing good, even casting out
demons as n proof that God wns with
Him (v. 38).
(2) In His death (v. 39).
The Just suffered for the unjust that
He might bring us to God (1 Pet. 3:18).
(3) In His resurrection (vv. 40, 41).
In this discourse Is set forth :
(a) The basis of salvation—the
crucifixion of Christ.
(b) The scope of salvation—who
soever belleveth in Him.
(c) The method of appropriating
salvation—believing on Him.
IV. Ths Holy Spirit Poured Out
(vv. 44-48).
This was a new Pentecost.
V. Pater Vindicates Hla Ministry
to tho Gentiles (1111-18).
Being called to account for visiting
and eating with Gentiles, Peter re
hearsed the whole story tn such away
that his narrative took the form of
logical argument, and showed how God
had set His seal upon the work by the
miraculous gift of the Spirit.
Closing the Day
Says Dr. R. A. Torrey: “No bank
ever closes its business day until its
balance is found to be absolutely cor
rect. And no Christian should close
a single day until his accounts with
God for that day have been perfectly
adjusted alone with Him."
