am 'Radar' Is Like A Giant Finger Robot Does The Same Work As Patrol Planes Six months ago your reporter ~Medod tha autling of en' emazing Era machine which helped win the Battle of Britain, .nd is now guarding these shores, writes Elsa Maxwell in The New York Post, The machine was an electric plane detector, It sent out a beam, and this beam, like a giant finger, found the enemy ship, and aimed the guns that brought it down. Unfortunately, the long arm of the censor's office cracked down --not gently, but well. But now the whole story can be told: The name of the instrument fs the 'Radar." It was invented and developed by Sir Robert Alexander Watson Watt, with the assistance of his wife, Lady Margaret Watson Watt. President of the Association of Scientific Workers, Sir Robert is a strong advocate of the employment of women in industy and In scien- tific work; and it seems a signifi- cant thing to me that, in England, Sir Robert's "Radar" is manned, almost entirely, by members of the Women's Auxiliary Air Force --the WAAFS. Always On Guard Radar, which is derived from . Radar was making the first Ietters of "radio detect- ing and ranging," is onc of thq new marvels made possible by electron tubes. Ultra-high fre- quency waves, traveling at 186,- 000 miles a second, are focused and beamed up into the air. When these beams strike an enemy plane, they bounce back. Re- ceiving gadgets translate the bounce nito all the information needed to aim anti-aircraft fire and blast the target from the sky. Perhaps: the most spectacular thing about Radar is that it sees through fog, hail, snow -- and through the curtain of the darkest night. . It is like some kind of cosmic X-ray. The Radar is always on guard, Beams are shot out at regular intervals. Any interruption in the usual pattern of "bounces" indi- cates at once that enemy ships are near, § Saves Fuel and Planes 1 asked an aviation autnorvity what other - contributions the to modern warfare. "Perhaps the most im- portant thing," my informant an- swered, "is this; We no longer have to keep patrol planes con- stantly in the air. ~The robot Radar does the shme work, and does it better--savnig hundreds of gallons of valuable fuel; and doing away with wear and tear on valuable equipment. The elec- tron can 'sce' when the finest eyes of-the Ari Force are blind." =" Incidentally, I would like those Congressional. critics of Lend- Lease--the ones who are always carping about the 50 over-age de- stroyers we sent to England--to note the fact that the Radar, like the Battle of Britain, is one of England's great and unforgettable contributions to the defences of this hemisphere, ~ 'Allowances Paid To Soldiers' Wives "Table of Asslged" Pay and Allowances In Canadian and Other Armies Canadian allowances tg the ~~ moc ITZ "QU Co» 2 June 27 JOHN'S COUNSEL TO CHRIS TIANG=2 Juli anu 9 Juin PRINTED TEXT, 2 John 411; 3 John 65-12, GOLDEN TEXT--Beloved, | pray that In all things thou mayest pros- per and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth, 3 John 2. + " THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.--~We do not know when thesg two brief Epistles of John wergé written, whether before hls imprisonment on the Isle of Pat- mos, or after his release.

Love and Truth "I rejoice greatly that I have found certain of thy children walk- ing in truth, even as we received commandment from The Father."

The Christlan truth is that the Son of God became man, took upon Himself our flesh, became tlesh, and thus was, from the time of his Incarnation, both God and man, two natures in one Person forever. John says that men who deny that Christ 48 come In the means love, that we should walk after his commandments, This is the commandment, even as ye heard from the beginning, that ye should walk In it." Love for others was distinctly absent In the normal life of the Roman world in which John and his readers lived, Unregen- erated humanity 1s fundamentally solfish and loves itself; regener- ated men and women by the Spirit forget self and love others. - ' False Dootrines "For many deceivers are gone forth Into the world, even they that confess not that Jesus Christ cometh in the flesh.

Partakers In Evil Works "If any one cometh unto you, and Dbringeth not this teaching, receive him not Into your house, and give him no greeting: For ho that giveth him greeting. par- taketh in hig evil works," For men to receive such teachers into their homes and to be on terms of good fellowship with them really meant that they condoned what these men taught, or at least did not think their errors were serlous enough for condemnation. The world will usually believe that those with whom we frequently associate are those: whom we ap- prove.
