whole approach to the lesson salutary indeed are the lessons which the holy spirit has present ed for us in the record of elijahs life in some respects the greatest of all the prophets since moses until the advent of john the baptist matt 1111 he appears suddenly upon the page of scrip ture with his amazing declaration to king ahab as the lord liveth before whom i stand there shall not be dew nor rain these years but according to my word i kings 171 we know from the spirits comment in james 5 17 that this was the result of and contidence from a life of prayer it took real courage the cour age born of the conviction that he was gods own messenger for this sturdy tishbite to rebuke so powerful and wicked a ruler as ahab and even more to declare beforehand whst nature saw no evidence of but whichfaith count ed on god to perform i kings is 41 yet we see this bold man quail before the wrath of a proud haughty vixen like jezebel 1 kings 102 3 whose threatening words so disturbed him that he preferred death to further con flict i kings 184 in this we may see how truly lie was a man of like passions with ourselves not some wonderful mysterious superhuman being but a very human person indeed whom god had taken up in grace and com missioned for a great work his greatest weakness was in connec tion with his outstanding testi mony he was inclined to think of himself as jehovahs sole repre sentative on earth when he said i only am left 1 kings 1914 god rebuked him by telling of seven thousand hidden ones in israel who had not bowed the knee to baal chap 1918 we need to learn the same lesson however faithful or devoted we may imagine ourselves to be god has many more than ourselves who are true to his word and faithful in their stand against apostasy the historical setting for about thirty years during the reign of ahab king of israel elijah was the outstanding witness for god in the northern kingdom he came from gilead but we know nothing of his birthplace or his antecedents nor the date of his nativity it was late in the tenth century before christ about 925 bc that he made his first drama tic appearance before ahab and his translation occurred probably about 895 bc the present scene occurred oh mt carmel where he withstood the priests of baal verse by verse 1 kings is 30 he repaired the altar of the lord that was broken down this was evidently one of those ancient high places where the people worshipped jehovah the rebuilding of this altar was a witness to elijahs faith and a challenge to the representatives of the idolatrous systems that had the backing of the court of israel verse 31 twelve stones according to the number of the tribes this was a remarkable testimony to the unity of the nation as viewed by god through his servant even though strife and division had outwardly des troyed it so with the church to- first ice machine made century ago this year is the 100th annivers ary of the first ice machine and before you say so what this is what ice is a very important part of our culture our eating habits our sciences our industry without it we couldnt have fed our soldiers so well and won the war and with it we are the healthiest nation on earth bat dont go way theres more 323000 tons daily if you coax them the people in the business will also tell you there are 6s0o plants in the coun try which manufacture 325000 tons of ice a day 100000000000 pounds a year the yearly output is enough to load a train six times as long as the distance between new york and san francisco made up of 2000000 cars each car carryin 25 tons ice is used for many reasons besides in drinks it is used in refrigerated railroad cars trucks and ships hauling fruits vege tables dairy products meats and other perishables to countless markets it is used in printing plants bakeries gold mines and textile mills multiple uses it is used in making chocolate chewing gum cigars ice cream liquors drugs varnish hats ex plosives sausage film and glue felt for hats has to be cooled to stretch it helps retard the fermentation of mash in making liquors and it maintains the proper temperature in chemicals used for explosives this great ice business

made a trench about the altar the pagan priests were notorious for their trickery by which they sought to deceive the people with false signs and lying wonders elijah was prepar ing to offset all this by that which in his case would make deceit impossible verse 33 fill four barrels with water and pour it on the burnt- sacrifice placing the parts of the lords offering upon the wood he had the altar and the sacrifice so drenched with water that no human power could kindle the wood and produce fire verse 34 they did it the third time three times this process of saturation was repeated in the sight of all beholders there was too much at stake to admit any possibility of a reasonable charge of hidden fire in the altar to be fanned into flame when the prophet had prayed verse 35 he filled the trench also with water altar offering and wood were drenched and the trench or groove surrounding was now full of water only divine power could produce fire under such circumstances and this was to be the test as to who was the true god that day v 24 verse 3g at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice down at jerusalem far to the south at this hour the lamb was laid upon the altar this lonely witness among the apostates of the north remembered what was taking place at the temple of jehovah and called upon the lord of the fathers of israel to reveal himself and make his power known verse 37 hear me that this people may know it was with no thought of personal vindication or self- exaltation that elijah thus called upon god he yearned over he people so wickedly deceived by their leaders and longed to see god manifest his power in such a way that they would be restored to the oldtime path verse 38 then the fire of the lord fell as of old when the tabernacle was first erected lev 924 and the glory of the lord filled the house when the temple was dedicated 2 chron 5 13 14 a sudden flash of fire from the heavens ignited the wood and con sumed the sacrifice even the water in the trench was licked up by the intense heat verse 39 the lord he is the god all day the prophets of baal had called in vain upon their idols now the eternal one had made his power known and for the time at least the people were persuaded that he was indeed the one living and true god it was a great prayer of faith and consistent testimony to the truth tim heart of the lesson he who has the testimony of his own conscience that he is walking in accordance with the revealed will of god will be courageous in the hour of danger when the enemies of the truth oppose with violence or deceitful pretense there is a mere fleshly bravado which may exist where one is playing fast and loose with that which is of god but holy boldness is another thing altogether and is the accompaniment of genuine piety and true loyalty to the word of the lord it is this that we see exemplified in the life of elijah and in this we may well seek grace to emulate the devoted man of god who came to call the people back to the law they had forgotten discover how good iced tea can be make tea double strength and while still hot pour into glasses filled with cracked ice add sugar and lemon to taste salam trip w fhh tpa gorrie a country doctor dr gorrie invented the first ice- making machine in 1s50 dr gorrie a spanish immigrant practised medicine in abbeville sc and later in apalachicola fla where he became interested in malaria and yellow fever research tries fever control he was convinced that control of the fevers was essential to their effective treatment that summer heat and high humidity slowed the patients recovery so he developed a unique system of ventilating the sick room windows and doors were shut and an opening was cut in the wall close to the floor a large con tainer of natural ice was sus pended from the ceiling and directly over the ice was a funnel like hood attached to a stovepipe air from outside was sucked through the pipe and spilled over the ice by the hood the chilled air near the ceiling being heavier descended around the patient and was forced outside again through the lower opening in the wall needed lee regularly good as it was such a system still depended on natural ice and getting enough natural ice in apalachicola was difficult so dr gorrie went to work extending his earlier findings to a later experiment of forcing air through small tubes over water and that led to the discovery that the greater the force the cooler the water and that eventually led to the birth of modern refrigera tion the essentials of gorries orig inal model were a pump to com press air in a chamber which housed a container for water after compression the air was forced to expand rapidly to absorb the heal from the water and there by produce artificial ice helps french consul gorries discovery was first made public at a bastille day party thrown by the french consul in apalachicola the consul bad been in a stew here this big shindig was coming up and the ice boat wasnt due in time to chill the champagne but then he heard about gorries invention and the doctor promised to help out gorrie took out a patent on his invention but despite the local acclaim couldnt make a business cut of soiling his machine and couldnt raise enough money to promote it he died in 1s55 broke humiliated bitter pause refresh prink ma we buy your eggs cases supplied prompt returns
