All other men under 26 employed in industry are subject to immediate^ draft. Most draft boards have exhausted their 18 to 26 list and are now called upon to pick from the 26 to 35 list. Labor Commissioner McNutt has so far refused to order 4-F men into war industry, fearing reaction of or­ ganized labor. Many orders issued in Washington are as confusing to the draft boards as to the public. Chairman May., Dem., Kentucky, House military committee, asks for a congressional ’ investigation of the draft situation, McNutt and Roose­ velt are fighting any order that will take any o f the 35,000 New Deal slackers out o f the war and navy de­ partments in Washington.'

SAUL'S EARLY PREACHING LESSON TEXT: Acts B:191rS0[ 11:23, 96. GOLDEN TEXT! I am not, ashamed of the gospel: for'it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.— Romans 1:10, “ A ' changed man” —that oft-used expression assumes real meaning as it is applied to .one who has experi­ enced the redeeming grace of God. in Christ. In a special way this was true of Paul, whose transformed life amazed those who knew him before ■ he had met Christ on the Damascus road. ' , In our lesson we find him in three different cities, serving his new­ found Master and Lord. I. At Damascus—Confounding the, Jews (9:19-25). ' “ Straightway.” What, a good word to apply to the servant of the Lord. Paul did not hesitate to declare, his faith in Christ, to proclaim that the One who ' had redeemed him was able also to Save others. '■» It is the n'ormal and proper ex­ pression of Christian faith’ to give testimony tp others. That should be true of every believer. With Paul there was the added element of his call to’ preach, for God had ordained that he should be H chosen vessel for that purpose (Acts 9:15). One is impressed by the prompt and unquestioning obedience of so many of Christ’6 followers of whom we read in the New Testament. No doubt that explains their power and wide usefulness. We could learn of them, v Paul’s message was Christ. He proved to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ (v. 22), the One of whom their Old Testament Scriptures spake and for whom they professed to.Zbe looking.. He declared Him to be the Son- of God (v. .20); • . ■They were unwilling to, accept the message. They were “ amazed” at Paul*.and “ confounded” ;by the truth he proclaimed, but .they rejected both it an'd him, and he had to es­ cape for his life. But another city must hearf his witness, so we .find him-r- II. ’ At Jerusalem—Disputing With the Grecians (9:26-30). s Knowing his violent persecution of the church, the disciples in Jerusa­ lem were suspicious. Perhaps there was a measure of justification for, such an attitude, but one is glad that ^t-here was present the generous, open-hearted Barnabas, ready to be­ lieve in his nevt; brother in Christ and to sponsor him in, the church. A word of admonition to the church of our day is necessary, re­ garding the making of a new con­ vert. or a stranger, at home iri the fellowship, of the saints. There is no need of putting such a one quick­ ly into office or a place of honor, but let him know that he is accept­ ed and believed in, and thus give him an opportunity to grow, Paul remained in Jerusalem this time for- two weeks (Gal, 1:18), go-" ing in and out, that is, in friendly fel­ lowship, That is just what the young Christian needs, and should seek. •He also had something to make right. He had joined the Grecian J.ews ' when they disputed with -Stephen (6:9) and stoned him. Paui had agreed with and joined them on that occasion. Nbw by the miracle of regeneration he is a new creature and is on the -exactly opposite side. Now he disputes with the Grecians, declaring that Jesus is the Christ. What a blqssed change! They refused to tolerate that word, and prepared to kill him. But the servant of the Lord was -kept by Him, and delivered through the good offices of Christian brethren. How often it is true that ‘ the minister must look to the brethren for that kindness which delivers; him from distress and danger. .Paul returned for a time to his home city of Tarsus, but when a nteed of his services arose he was called out, and we find him— III. At Antioch — Teaching the Christians (11:25, 26). Persecution spread the believers abroad (Acts 11:19), and like the scattered brands of' a beaten fire they carried the flame of Christian­ ity far and wide. Thus the gospel came to Antioch* the third greatest city in the world of that day. A re­ vival brdke out, and Barnabas was sent fj^om Jerusalem to be of help. Go oaand spiritual man that he was (Acts 19:23, 24), Barnabas did nqthing to hinder this work of God* but admonished the people to “ cleave unto the Lord,” that is, to follow Him closely, Would that all spiritual adviser^ had such a spirit and such sound judgment, He was also wise'in sensing his need of help, So he went after Paul, the very man to teach these yt/ung Christians, and to lead them out into a radiant and abundant life for the Lord, Here it was that the beautiful .name of “ Christian" was first ap­ plied to believers. It~1s “ believed' to’ have originally been a term of ridicule, but even then it was a testi­ mony, for it declared,that these be­ lievers were devoted to Christ and concerned only with pleasing and serving Him, , GREENE COUNTY REP CROS5 QUOTA TOPPED Final reports from Red Cross work­ ers in the county showed the recent campaign has exceeded the quota by $3,092, over the required $46,000. For a time the campaign jugged-and fear was expressed the quota would not be reached but extra work brought re­ sults. .
