y Z + *-- 'let's suppose that a nn ~ Cannibals Eat Their Relatives New Guinea Natives Enjoy 'Dining on Their ious * Relations - A white man's life among the Dutch New Guinea cannibals is quite monotonous because the cannibals prefer to eat their re- latives, 8, Dillon Ripley, 24, of the Academy of Natural Science, said last week. Ripley, returned from a stay among the cannibals, said that nothing rates higher gastronomi- cally than a relative. who over- steps'the bounds of propriety. Minimum of Bores "The system," he said, "results in a minimum of bores and love- thieves in the tribe." It resulted in part from the Dutch Government's attitude _to- ward the consumption of white men and Chinese, he said. "For instance," he continued, tribesman steals from a fellow-tribesman his wife or some other personal pos- session. The victim lodges a com- plaint with the chief and the chief calls a council of assistant chiefs and priests. If they decide that the meat shortage is acute en- ough to warrant drastic punish- ment,' the offender is invited to the blow-out. - Roasted to Individual Taste "He doesn't know he is about to be barbequed. He dances with «the rest of them and the ~~ly in- dication of the unusual honor to be bestowed on him is a garland of flowers about his neck. "When the dancing ends, the unfortunate is killed with special- ly-selected poles, and divided. The guests then roast him to individ- ual taste." War Scares Lessen Travel In Europe Decline of 50 Percent. In Trav- ellers to Germany and Aus- tria Is Reported by One Agency The war scares have caused a heavy slump in travel in Europe, particularly Spain, Germany and Austria, British travel agencies re- port. i One agency reports a decline ot over 650 per cent. in travellers to Germany and Austria, and another - declares bookings have dropped by 28 per cent. Hungary, tov, has been slightly hit because, it is said, of a general dislike even to travel through Austria, "Safe" Countries Benefit At the time of the crisis with Germany one firm found a severe decrease in the tourists for Czecho- 8lovakia, and this is only slowly righting itself. With Spain "off the map" for the last two years, as a result of the war, tourist traffic in Europe has been further diminished. "Safe countries" have benefitted in consequence. The royal visit to Paris, for instance, has stimulated interest in France, and Cook's re- port a record year for that coun- try. The Polytechnic Touring asso- ciation have found the same thing true of the traditionally neutral and safe Switzerland. ' Italy, following the recent Anglo- Italian pact has taken much of the overflow of people who want to go abroad. Scandinavia remains as popular as in previous years, Jews' History In Palestine Blending of Racial Stocks Pro- duced the Jewish People Dealing chiefly with the period from 1800 to 1600 B.C., Prof. H. G. May, of Oberlin College, Ohio, reviewed the blending of various racial stocks in Palestine which produced. the Jewish people, in a lecture at Macdonald College, Montreal, last week. - Prof. May, a well-known Bibli- cal archaeologist, in the course of his series of ten lectures on Pal- estinian research in recent years, referred to the inroads of the Hy- ksos and showed by lantern slides how the course of the progress of this .semi-Ayran people was mark- ed by the ruins of fortifications from the Caucasus to the borders of Egypt. The inéursions of the Hurrian- ons, who contributed greatly to the mixing of racial stocks in Jalestine, and whose blood is pre- dominant in the people now known as Jews, was also referred to by the lecturer. > Bad Year For Mink Thinking of buying a mink coat for the winter?

Pro- verbs 31:28, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time -- The events of this lesson cannot be definitely dated, but fell possibly between 1170 B.C. and 1140 B.C. Place -- Ramathaim-zophiin was situated In Benjamin; see the les- son for further explanation. Shiloh was a city in Ephriain on the north side of Bethel. It is quite remarkable how many women of pious homes, in both the Old and New Testaments have been for many long years childless, Sar- ah (Gen. 16:1), Rachel (Gen, 30:1), Manoah's wife (Judg. 13:2), Elisa. beth (Luke 1:7). And get God, in preparing Samuel to do a great work in Israel, was also preparing Hannah to be the mother that a great man such as Samuel would need. God had to get a woman be- fore he could get a man. Hannah had in her the making of the wo- man he needed. God honored her by choosing her, but she must be changed before she could be used, and so there came those years of pruning and sifting und discipline. 9. So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest was sitting upon his seat by the door- post of the temple of Jehovah. 10. And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto Jehovah, and wept sore. Trouble will do one of two things to a believer; it will either harden his or her heart, or it will bring that one to God. Hannah is led to the throne of grace by the agony that is in her heart. The word "Shiloh" means "rest." It continued to be the religious center of the entire nation until after the toss of the ark in the disastrous battle of Ibenezer (see Jer. 7:12), When Hannah had come up to Shi. loh to worship, she found Eli the priest there lazily idling away his time before this sacred object that had been committed to his care. The fervor, beauty, and efficacy of Hannah's prayer did not depend on the purity of any priesthood. Pledged By A Vow * 11. And she vowed a vow, .and said, O Jehovah, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thy hand- mald, and remember me, and not forget -thy handmaid, but wilt give unto thy handmaid a man-child, then I will give him unto Jehovah all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head. The prayer which Hannah offered was in the form of a vow in which she promised God that, should he grant unto her the privilege of be- coming the mother of a son, she would dedicate that son to the life of a Nazirite as long as he lived. "The Naziriteship - included three things -- the refraining from intox- icating drinks, the letting the hair grow, and the avoiding all ceremon- fal defilement by corpses even of the nearest kin. Thgse strange res- trictions and customs had an inner signification. The untouched hair, which here is especially mentioned, was a public protest, that the con- secrated one had determined to re- frain from intercourse with the world, and to devote the whole of his strength and fu'lness of life to the T.ard'q war! 12 And it cawe to pass, as she conned praying before Jehovah, that Eli marked her mouth. 13. Now Hannah, she spake in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: therefore Elf had thought she had been drunken. 14, And Eli said unto her. How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee. 15. And Han- nah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrow- ed ful spirit; I have drunk neither Wine nor strong drink, but I poured out my soul before Jehovah. 16, Count not thy handmaid for a wick- ed woman; for out of the abund- ance of my complaint and my pro- vocation have I spoken hitherto, Elf here supremely shows himself to be utterly unfit for the priest- hood. When a man who is supposed to be devoting his lite to spiritual . things, to the care of souls, to lead- ing others in spiritual growth, is unable to tell the difference be- tween a woman pleading with God in prayer and a woman drunk with wine, he should let some one else &ome in and do what he is thereby proving himself incapable of and unfitifor doing, - A Most Earnest Worshipper 17. Then Eli 'answered and sald, Go in peace; and the God of Israél grant thy petition that thou hast . asked of him, 18. And she said, Let' thy handmaid find favour in thy "sight. So the woman went her way, and did eat; and. her countenance was no more sad. Yet when EN comes finally. to recognize that the 4 woman whom he had so falsely ac- cused of intemperance was probab- ly the most earnest, devout wor- shipper who had come up to the house of the Lord for many a day, he had the grace to bestow a bles- sing upon her, and to add his own hope to hers, that her petition soon would be granted, Shortly rafter Samuel's birth his father went up to Shiloh to offer an early sacrifice and to perform a vow which he had made, which also shows that not only his wife but he also had made a vow concerning the birth of a son (cf. Deut. 12:11), Song of Thanksgiving For the mercy and loving-kindness which the Lord had showed unto her, Hannah utters her thanksgiv- ing in a song which reaches far beyond the occasion which gives fit birth, and rises into the region of prophecy, 1. And Hannah prayed, and said: My heart exulteth in Jehovah; My horn is exalted in Jehovah; My mouth is enlarged over mine enemjes;™ Because I rejoice in thy salva- tion, } The word "horn" refers first, of course, to oxen, whose strength lies in their horns. The word was a fav- orite Hebrew symbol, which had come to mean simply "strength" or "power." The phrase "to exalt the horn" means "to raise to a position of power or dignity." (Ps. 89:17; 148:14), 2. There is none holy as Jehovah; , For there is none besides thee, neither is there any rock like our God, God is frequently compared to a rock, which is, of course, a meta- phorical way of ascribing to God strength, faithfulness and un- changeableness. 3. Talk no more so exceeding proudly; Let not arrogance come out of your mouth; For Jehovah is a God of know- ledge, And by him actions are weighed, Undoubtedly Hannah is here re- ferring to the sneers cast at her by her husband's second wife dur- ing the barren years before Samuel was born, his birth bringing to an end cutting remarks about her own childlessness. The song rises now from a con- ~ sideration of God's goodness to Hannah and her immediate family to a consideration of God's good- ness to all of Israel, and closes with a marvelous paean of praise to God regarding "his King" 'and "his Anointed," which, we bleive, can refer to none other than the Lord Jesus Christ. Hannah was a woman of faith, "Le, faith in God, manifested by her constant prayer to Jehovah. She - Was a woman of infinite patience and tenderness, for we do not read of a single bitter, hasty word that escaped her lips during the days of her great trial ang insulting perse- cution on the part of Peninnah. Hannah was a woman who consid- ered it the very greatest honor that a son should be given to the service of the Lord for a perpetual minis- try in the temple of Jehoval. Shave Often and Save Your Shirts Other things being equal, the man whose shirts last longest is the man who shaves most fre- quently, J. Fred Oesterling, re- search assistant in textile chemis- try at Pennsylvania State College, said last week. "Neck whiskers, if they are not shaved off every day, abrade the fabric of the shirt at the collar. Of course, this lessens the life of the collar and of the shirt as a whole," he said. Research at Penn State has shown an ordinary shirt can be washed and ironed 25 to 30 times before it shows pronounced signs of wear. Some have been washed Run Like Business Something Wrong When Fhe Current Expenses Exceed Income The woman who enters upon the enterprise of homemaking assumes definite economic obligations. The home {8 an investment--in part, a financial investment. If the home is maintained on a paying basis, then it is a sound financial fnvest- ment; if on a losing basis, there is something which needs correcting, Should the question arise: "How does one know when her home ceases to be on a paying basis?" The answer is: "When the current expenses are not compatible with income, and the balance sheet at end of 'month shows financial loss instead of gain." No business un- dortaking could hope to succeed it those in authority did not under- stand the technique and fundamen- tals involved. The same laws which make a business organization sugcessful are essential to the pros- perity of a home. Find Where The Leak Comes In order to place a home on a mine what portion of the assets shall be set aside for current house- hold expenses, such as: rent, food, "clothing, fuel, gas, and electricity, If at the end of the month the re- sources are in excess of the ex- penditures the home investment is sound. This can only be consist- ently and successfully accomplished throvgh a budget plan which en. ables one to look at facts squarely, and helps to prevent the lnakage that frequently occurs in household expenses. Refrigerator Tips Keep food in: covered contain- ers. Remove paper bags or paper wrappings from food before stor- ing in refrigerator. Clean veget- ables and wrap in waxed paper or some of the new transparent bags; wash the inside of the refrigera- tor thoroughly with a mild wash- ing soda solution at least once a week; defrost automatic refriger- ators regularly, or when the unit is frosted no more than a quarter in, Do not overcrowd. Refrigera- tors give best service when there is a free circulation of air throughout. Are You sy FREDDIE TEE Listening ?
