fUitawd by Wetn NcwipApcr Union. Lesson for November 26 Lemon eub'er'i and Scripture texts lr eted and cevriKhted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. THE CHRISTIAN VIEW OF INDUSTRY LESSON TEXT Luke Thfi-lonlam 3 1012 GOLDEN TEXT Let him that ttole (teal no more: but rather let him labor, worklnc till harrii the thlr.g that It food, that he may have to give to him that needeth. Ephesiam 4:28. Work is a blessing, and the proper attitude toward it is an important part of the life of a Christian.

Industry has found its best and most dependable workers among those who believe in Christ. It has also come to realize the strengthening of the faith of its workers makes them better workmen; hence we see all over the land the interesting development oi chaplains in industrial plants. That activity rightly planned and properly conducted can be of great value to both the individual and to industry. Our lesson rightly deals with the individual. Christianity is a personal matter, a life rather than a theory.

It deals with the man rather than the mass. I. We Are Accountable for Opportunity (Luke The king in this parable is Christ, who has now gone away, to return when God is ready for Him to set up His kingdom on earth. In the mean time His servants have been given that which they should be using for Him. Two things stand out in this story-First, the fact that Jesus is coming again.

There are many scoffers who deny that tlesed truth (II Pet. 3:3, 4). There are many believers to whom the promise has become but a forma truth in a confession of faith or a creed. But the failure of men to reccgnize truth and their unwillingness to hold it precious, do not alter the fact. Jesus is coming again! When He comes.

He will have many things to accomplish, but and this is our second fact one of the most important is that there shall be an accounting with His followers (who are supposed to be His servants) regarding the life they have lived. What will your answer and mine be in that day? It depends on what we are and what we are doing right now. The basis of His judgment appears in the following verses, where we learn that: II. We Are to Be Rewarded for Faithfulness (Luke When believers stand in the presence of Christ to answer for the deeds done in the flesh (our sins were judged at it will not be a question of what church you belong to, or what family name you bear, or how much money you have amassed. No.

the only question asked will be, "Have you been faithful in trading with the gifts, the abilities and the opportunities which God has given you?" Note that there are three different judgments here, but all on the one ground of faithfulness. The first man represents those who with all diligence and zeal seek to grow spiritually end to serve the Lord with glad abandon. All that they have and are they give to Him for His glory and for the winning of others to Him. They will be commended by the Lord and great will be their reward 1 The second man, with equal opportunity, did accomplish something, but not too much. He represents those who do want to serve the Lord but with no special zeal, no great measure of sacrificial endeavor-just "average" (what an unfortt-nate standard!) Christians.

The Lord Is fair. He does not de-' prive them of their reward. In the measure that they have been faith-, ful, they too shall find joyous service for Him. But observe that there is no special word of commendation' in this case, and there Is a limited1, reward. The third man represents those who profess to be In fear of God.

lie aeui3 to demand so mucn Of them and they are not ready to give it. After all, they say, we want to enjoy life. Why should the Lord expect so much of usT Not only do they lose all reward, but the Lord must take away even that which He has already given. III. We Are Commanded to Work (II Thes.

From the day that God put Adam in the garden of Eden to cart for it, honest work has been the lot of all mankind yes, and his honor. There is no place in the economy of God for the man or woman who is able to work but is not willing to do so. "If any will not work, neither let him eat" (v. 10). Apparently there were some in the church at Thessalonica who perverted the teaching of the Lord's return, who said that if Jesus wer coming any day there was no use working.

They had turned the truth completely around. The point Is that since Jesus may come at any time, we should all be doing our utmost to accomplish all we can so that wt may stand in His presence with joy, and not with ahauit. Mrs. Florence Johnson, beloved Wife of T. L.

Johnson, died at her Lome in Licking, November 5, 1944. Mrs. Johnson wan the daughter of William Carter and wife. She was horn near Brushy Creek, Tennessee, October 2, 1868, milking her age 76 years, 1 month and 3 days. Iler parents settled in Texas county when she was quite young.

Florence Johnson was loved by all who knew her.

Many friends, relatives and neighbors, for miles around, will mourn the loss of their dear de parted friend. Contributed. WEST PINEY By Gossip fcSnooper A large crowd of friends gathered in the Edgar Moore home Monday night to charivari Leslie and Ursic Moore. The young couple have been in Nebraska ever since their marriage there last spring, so Ieslio hardly expected the charivari at this late dale; but don't worry, we never miss a chance for a treat. Mr.

and Mrs. Moore gave the crowd a fine, generous treat and everyone had a nice time visiting the remainder of the evening. Leslie's plans for the future arc undecided, but we all hope they will make their home here in the good old Ozarks. Mr. and Mrs.

Tom Cross, of Dykes, who are moving to Licking, pleasantly surprised Tuesday night, when a large crowd of neighbors came flocking into their home. It didn't take Tom long to improvise some scats and soon everyone whs busy talking and laughing. Mr. and Mrs. Cross are fine folks and we halo to see them leave the community, but we wish them good luck in their new home.

Cookies and coffee were served at a late hour and we were dismissed with a prayer and with the song "Go Be With You." The following families were present: Mr. and Mra. Earl Sillyman, Jimmy and Jerry; Mr. and Mrj. Earl Gobble and Shirley; Mr.

and Mis. Jess Walker; Mr. and Mrs. Rhea Lybyer and Kay r. and Mrs.

Ed Stottlemvre, Johnny and Jarold; Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Smith, Yvonne, Irene and Betty; Mr. and Mrs. Albert Clark, Billy and Jerry Lee; Mr.

and Mrs. John Lybyer; Mr. and Mrs. Fred Lybyer; Mr. and Mis.

Randall is working on the house, and we are betting Lloyd, Marie and Glen will be three tickled people when the job is completed. In an impressive baptismal servicp last Sunday, Mabel Daugherity and Warren Gobble were baptised by Rev. Calvin Bennett. Rev. Bennett conducted a revival meeting at Dykes church last week.

Mrs. Millie Duncan, of Alabama, left this neighborhood last week and it now in the home of her daughter, Mrs. Ernest Reeves. She also plans to visit her son, Roy, in Springfield, before returning home. Mr.

and Mrs. Bert Foster have some fine looking turkeys at their pince. How would von like to suit, a tooth in one of those juicy birr1 about November 23 a since July, 1941, according to Jesa W. HiLterbrand, County Chairman, Missouri War Finance Committee. These figures includo purchases up to the middle of last month, October 15, 1944.

Since the county's quota for the 6lh War Loan drive which opened November 20, is $190,000, the county will have, provided the quota is made, a grand total of $2,100,574 invested in freedom in the past 42 months. The 1940 census lists Texas county as having a population of 19,813, and since approximate ly 1,783 of these ura now serving in the armed services it means that every man, woman anil child should have about $90.00 worth of war bonds. Of course this is not tiue, as many do not have any, while ethers have several times that many, and large amounts are owned by foreign owned but locally ojerated companies. Texas countians have bought bonds much heavier during drives than they have in between drives. The figures show the following purchases in between drives: 1941 (6 months), 1942, 1943, and 1944, $112,772.

One must remember that there has already been two drives in 1944 and another one coming up. The 4th War Loan Drive held in January and February of this year, was responsible for sales totaling $254,400, and the 5th Drive held in June and July accounted for Add these two figures to sales in between drives and to the quota for the 6th A ar Loan Drive, you get a total of $903,351 that will go to war in the form of a loan to our government this vcar alone from this countv. oooo TYRONE liy Missourian (Continued From Laat Watk) Mrs. Harry Hall, of Wisconsin, is visiting her parents, -Mr. and airs.
