de She ey i AEA : ; RES Led Weather Of All Kinds On Order U. 8. Air Force Weather Room Imitates Arctic, Trop- lcs and Sandstorms The army air forces are build. ing an all-weather "room at Wright Field, Ohio, where sand direct from the Sahara will blow Min howling storms, - rubber boats will float on a water-covered floor, and all climates from Arctic to equator will be reproduced, with snow, ice, rain, fog and broiling artificial sun, or cold to 60 below zero. The room is designed for test. Ing equipment, clothing and human reactions. It is part of the new aero medical rescarch laboratory of the army air forces materiel centre. The space is about the size of a very large living room, with_an extra high ceiling: 17 feet long, 14 wide and 10 high. The con- struction is something new. The room is really 12 steel boxes, cach close-fitting inside the other. Each box is made of thin stainless steel with a half inch of air space separating each box wall from the next, This construction replaces con- ventional insulating materials, some of which are scarce. The steel is shiny, a surface which reflects heat. This reflection is part of the insulating quality, Alloys in the steel increase the insulation. Military Problems The room will be used for work on military problems, after the war it is likely that one result will be better clothing for everyone. Some. of the clothing problems to come here have never been as fully investigated under such severe conditions. One such problem is how to get rid of body moisture. Large -+ forces of airmen live in tropic and Arctic conditions within the same hour. They dress and wait on hot deserts or in steaming tropic humidity. A few minutes after takeoff they may be in a sub-zero climate, These boys while waiting may not even leave much unhooked and unzippered. Outside their clothing are pieces of equipment which cover them like cloaks. For these men the problem of getting rid of body moisture may be seri- ous. Damp clothing freezes later on, and in freezing loses much of its insulating quality. In the all-weather room a man can dress in a desert sandstorm, in jungle steam or in torrid heat from sunlight radiators. If the scientists want to avoid the delay of changing the room to the Arc- tic, the man can step outside and in-10 seconds enter another room nearby, a steel chamber where the temperature will slide rapidly to 80 below zero. Rubber Boats Tested Clothing best suited to rainy - cold at about freezing tempera- tures is another largely unknown problem. That is the weather which millions of our troops are likely, to face for long periods, - Alaska, for example, has Arctic weather in some areas. But most of the present Alaskan action is in regions bathed by the warm Japan current. Fog and wet freezing is the rule. The room is equipped for all these condi- tions. For artificial sand storms, the "room's blowers will require only a couple of bushels of sand. Sand differs. The storms of any de- --_._ sert can be duplicated if neces- sary by the grit from the real place. Dust storms likewise, Goggles are a problem in all the severe-- climatic conditions. " 8and erosion, seepage of dust and sand, fogging, icing and driving on on the glass all will be stud- ed. There are also weather prob- lems in connection with the one piece of equipmeft which a flier must have in perfect condition more than any other. This is his oxygen apparatus, The floor of this room can be 'flooded to a depth 'of two feet. That is enough to test the rub- ber boats which are furnishing some of the war's most thrilling adventures, Rubber boating in midocean 'fs likely to become a new art and science combined. Cat Casualty Gets Attention First One of the most contented pa- tients at a naval hospital on the south coast of England is a black cat who since her afrival a fow wecks ago has had the best atten- tion that surgical and medical skill can give.

GOLDEN TEXT---Haly Fathey, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are.--John 17: 11, . Memory Verse: Thou, Jehovah, bast made me glad, Psalm 92:4, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time--Thursday evening, April 6, A.D. 30. "'Place--Not definitely known, possibly in the upper room, pos- sibly in the court of the Temple; hardly on any street in Jerusalem which had to be traversed on the way to the garden of Gethsemane. Christ's Prayer for Himself "These things spoke Jesus; and lifting up his eyes to heaven, He said, Father, the hour is come, Glorify Thy Son, that the Son may glorify Thee." This glorifi- cation includes the acceptance of the sacrifice, the atonement made, the redemption received, the reversal of death and _ the overthrow of Satan, "Even as thou gavest him au- thority over all flesh, that to all whom thou hast given him, he should give eternal life." Not all lsrael only but all humanity are the subjects of Messiah, "And this is life eternal, that they should know thee the only true God, and him whom thou didst send, even Jesus Christ." The knowledge Christ speaks ot here arisen from experience with God, from' an understanding - of God's revelation to man. "I glorified thee on earth, hav- ing accomplished the work which thou hast given me to do." Glory was rendered upon earth by the perfect devotion of a holy human life, by word and deed and by service. Request for Glorification "And now, Father, glorify thoa me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee be- fore the world was." The glorify- ing of the Son of Man and His assumption into the glory He bad with His Father before the world, began with his resurrec- tion. - . - Christ's Divine Origin "I manifested thy name unto the men whom thou gavest me out of the world; thine théy were, and thou gavest them to me; and they have kept thy word. Now they kirow that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are from thee, For the words which thou gavest me I have given unto them; and they received them, and knew of a truth that I came forth from thee, and they believed that thou didst send me." The"words" im- ply all the separate utterances of Christ as personal revelation of the character and will of - God, convincing the believing receiver of them that Christ is divine in origin and person, and His mis- slon divine. " The Divine Mission "As thou didst send me into the world, even so sent I them into the world." The son came ° into the world to love and re- deem men; we are to have that same love for men and point them ever to the same Redeemer, "And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may 'be sanctified in truth," The giving up of His will to God's will in the agony of Gethsemene, and then the doing of that will in the obedience unto death, this was Christ's sanctifying Himself and us too. f: One In Christ "Neither for these only do 1 pray, but for them also that bes lieve on me through their word; that they may all be one; even as thou, Father, art in me, and 1 in thee, that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that thou didst send me. And the glory which thou hast given me I have given unto them; that they _may be one, even as we are one. I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one; - that the world may know that thou didst send me, and lovedst them, even as thou lovedet me." Notice the three stages in this prayer: the Word from the Father to the Son, from the Son to His disciples 'and from the disciples to an unbelieving world, When we receive the truth as it has been divinely revealed to us, ° when we rejoice in the things in which God rejoices, when we have the compassion that p ed the heart of Christ, when our will ia in perfect union ith Christ's will, when the Holy Spirit is leading us in all things, then are we one in Christ, Love for "His Own ; "Father, I depire that they smo whom thou hast given me * be with me where I am, that they may behold thy glory, which thou hast given me; for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world, O_rightous Father, the world knew thee not, but I knew ROYAL DUTCH QUINTET «rincess Margriet Francisca, Sa six weeks old, sits for a family rirait with her mother and father, Princess Juliana and Prince ernhart of the Netherlands, and her two sisters, Princess Irene, left, and Princess Beatrix, thee; .nd these knew that thou didst send me; and I made known unto them thy name, and will make it known; that the love wherewith thou lovedst me may be in them, and I in them." The love of Christ's heart can be satisfied with nothing less than this, that His people, the Father's gift to Him, be with Him, forever sharing his hlessedness.

For another thing, there will be a scarcity of fats, Olive oil camo from Tunisia and Algeria, peanut oil from Scnegal and other parts of the colonial empire which now have seceded from Vichy. Animal fats are scarce as 1s sufficiently shown by the fact that the average meat ration for an adult is less than one-halt pound a month, Butter is scarce because of lack of fodder and requisitions of cattle for the Army of Occupa- tion, No Fats -- No Soap There being no (ats, there is no soap and the French are going un- washed as well as unfed.

Nothing But Ruins Left of Stalingrad Stalingrad, once a vast Indus- trial centre whose name will al- ways be a symbol of the triumph of men over metal, is a heap of ruins and rubble, writes Henry Shapiro. There are no streets, no ave- nues, no parks in Stalingrad. Millions of shellpocked bricks and mountaing of metal fragments 'are all that remains of such build- ings as the Dzershinsky tractor plant, . "In tho last 15 months I have seen ruins of cities such as Sera- fimovich and hundreds of villages on other fronts. In those places there are at least individual bricks which still are useable, That is not true of Stalingrad. Adolf Hitler boasted that when the Russians recaptured towns and villages, they would find-- not, towns and villages--but ruins and debris. © That is one promise he kept. The destruction at Stalingrad probably exceeds anything since Genghis Khan swept down from the Mongolian desert and laid waste the great and flourishing cities of central Asia, With the dawn of Friday, March 12th, the first Friday in Lent, wome™ around the world will pray that the may be united and that our leaders may he given supreme guidance in' their sfons which shail carry the strugele now raging the world to a victory boaccordane vt the spirit of Uhiistemibu year a nations deci throughagut Fach a programme of obey of lie vecasio ! { a board Comnnrtee of Waonen Al orary Ss prosraminie pation inf As a predmde to the t, M Albert = Matthews wife of Lieutenant. f speaks to on Tht Matt) gramme for Can mn will tell the custom sin S CUhristian guration, A choir will also participate in the . broadcast, which will be herd over the national ne:work of the CBC commencing at 420 pm.
