(As suggested by Mr. Roosevelt'S
comparison of his proposed aid to Eng.

would gladly lend him your hose and
not charge for it.)
Scene: Any community.
Characters: Jones and Smith.

—Help! My house is on fire!
Smith—Well, well, I feel I ought
to give you all aid short of . . .
Jones (alarmed) —Now don’t tell
me you will give me all aid short of
a hose!
Smith—No, I guess everybody’s
tired of that gag.

Jones (as the fire spreads)—
Please do something! Look at those
flames!
Smith—Now, take it easy. You
know my position in an emergency
such as this. I figure that this is
my fire as well as yours. My theory
has always been . . .
Jones—Never mind all that now.
Have you got a hose?
Smith—My good man, I may not
have the hose that is required for
a job like this, but I have studied
my hose situation very carefully. I
know what my hose requirements
are, and in a situation such as
this . . .
Jones (urgently)—l’ll need about
50 feet.
Smith—lf you will bear with me a
moment, I should like to outline my
policy on . . .
Jones—Have you got 50 feet of
hose?
Smith—l am in a position to state
that by the end of next July I expect
to have 100 feet of . . .
Jones (as the flames reach the
second story)—This fire won’t last
that long!
Smith—One can never be sure
about a thing like that. It might
end very soon. On the other hand,
it might spread until my own prem
ises are consumed. In that case . . .
Jones (desperately)—All I want to
know is have you got 50 feet of hose?
Smith—l have 50 feet of hose . . .
Jones—And don’t tell me it is on
order!
* •
Smith (as the flames break
through the Jones roof)—My good
ness! That’s quite a fire you have
there, isn’t it? It’s almost a total
emergency.
Jones—That’s what I’ve been try
ing to make clear. Where’s that
hose?
Smith—You mean completed hose,
actually on the premises?
Jones—Of course.
Smith—Well, that’s different. All
I have at the moment is a 35-foot
length. But by April . . .
Jones—May I have the 35 feet at
once?
Smith—Certainly. This is no time
to be legalistic.
Jones (Grabbing the hose)—
Thanks very much.
Smith—By the end of six months
I can let you have 100 feet of
hose per week and . . .
Jones—This will be all I’ll need.
Smith—Don’t worry about any
charge for that 35 feet. I’m lending
it to you. It’s a sort of mortgage plan.
Jones (as the roof falls in)—Never
mind the details. All I want now is
one assurance.
Smith —What’s that?
Jones—That you’re not giving me
every aid SHORT OF WATER!

A CHANGE IN THE MEAT COURSE
(See Recipes Below)
“Meat makes the meal,” especial
ly when there are husky, hard-work
ing men to feed. But for those be
hind the scenes in the kitchen, think
ing up a different and a flavorsome
meat dish for each day out of the
seven is no small task.
There are two ways to approach
the problem. First, investigate
some of the less
common cuts.
)'? You’ll find them
thrifty to buy be
mUmET y cause the demand
// for them is less.
// Most of them
fairly abound in good flavor and
need only to be properly cooked to
be serious rivals to more expensive
cuts.
If you are buying pork, ask the
meat dealer to prepare you a hand
some rolled sirloin roast. It’s a
thrifty cut not so well known as the
pork loin roast but it has decided
advantages. Two sections of the
pork sirloin are boned and tied to
gether into a solid roll of meat. The
round, compact slices offer no ob
structions to the knife, and are the
answer to a carver’s prayer. The
picnic shoulder of pork is another
cut of exceptional flavor. Have it
boned, stuff it with spinach and
roast it.
If it’s too soon for another leg of
lamb, buy a section of lamb breast
and have it rolled with a layer of
sausage. Slice off the meat as you
would a jelly-roll; you’ll have the
neatest pinwheels imaginable.
Lamb shoulder and lamb shoulder
chops are two other not-so-well
known possibilities.
The second way to coax some va
riety into your meat dishes is to
try new ways of flavoring cuts that
you serve often. If much of your
meat supply comes from a frozen
foods locker, this is your best bet.
Have pork chops cut double thick
and stuff them with a tart mix
ture of sauerkraut and apple. Your
family will beam approval when
you serve that combination! Or
make your next ham loaf like an
upside-down cake so that when you
turn it out, there are rows of bright
as-a-dollar apricots across the top.
Try canned gooseberries as a relish
with ham or beef, or canned Dam
son plums with veal.
Pork Chops Stuffed With Sauerkraut
And Apple.
(Serves 6)
6 loin pork chops (cut 1-inch thick)
1 cup sauerkraut (drained)
1 cup tart, red cooking apple (diced)

Have a pocket made from the out
side of each chop. Combine sauer-
Sraut with finely r
diced unpeeled ,V
apple and stuff f ({ )l\
the chops with " /JJ
the mixture. Sea
son them with
salt and pepper /))
and brown on
both sides in hot
fat in a heavy skillet. Add sauer
kraut juice, cover, and finish the
cooking in a moderate oven (350
degrees). Bake for IVz hours, and
remove the cover during the last
15 minutes of baking to brown the
chops.
Round Steak, Western Style.
(Serves 6)
2 pounds round steak
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon salt

kle with salt and pepper. Arrange
slices of thinly cut onion and lemon
over steak. Dilute tomato soup with
water and pour over steak. Bake in
a moderate oven (350 degrees) for
2 hours uncovered.
Boneless Sirloin Pork Roast
With Stuffed Apples.
Have the meat retailer remove
the tenderloin and bones from two
cirloin sections, reverse the ends,
and tie the two boneless pieces to
gether in a compact rolled roast.
Season with salt and pepper and
place with the fat side up in an
open roasting pan. Make an inci
sion to the center of the roast and
insert a meat thermometer so that
the center of the bulb reaches the
center of the fleshiest part of the
meat. Place the roast in a mod
erate oven (350 degrees) and roast
until the thermometer registers 185
degrees Fahrenheit. Allow about 30
minutes per pound for roasting,
Serve with rice-stuffed apples.
Rice-Stuffed Apples.
6 medium-sized baking apples
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup rice (cooked)
1 tablespoon butter
% cup water
Wash apples and cut a slice from
the top of each. Remove the cores
and seeds and sprinkle the cavities
with brown sugar. Mix cooked rice
with melted butter and stuff each
j apple. Arrange them in a baking
pan with the water in the bottom
. and bake for IVz hours, or until ten
der in a moderate oven (350 de*
■ grees).
Lamb Pinwheels.
! (Serves 5)
Boned breast of lamb (about

- % pound bulk pork sausage
2 tablespoons fat
1 1 teaspoon salt
1 Va teaspoon pepper
1 small onion (sliced)
1 cup tomatoes (canned)
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauca
Have the lamb breast boned,
, spread with bulk pork sausage,

4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cups fine, soft bread crumbs
1 teaspoon salt
% teaspoon pepper
Have the picnic shoulder boned
and sowed on two sides at the mar
ket. This leaves one side open for
inserting the stuffing. Season the
surface of the pork shoulder with
salt and pepper. Combine the spin
ach, onion, butter, lemon juice and
bread crumbs. Season with salt
and pepper and use to fill the cavity
of the roast. Sew or skewer the
edges together. Place the shoulder,
fat side up, on a rack in an open
roasting pan and roast in a mod

CHRIST’S VALUATION OF
PERSONALITY
LESSON TEXT—Luke 14:1-14.
GOLDEN TEXT—Is not the life more
than meat, and the body than raiment? —
Matthew 6; 25.
People, people, and more people!
Have you ever said, “I’m just so
tired of people. I wish I could
get away from everybody’’? Most
of us have felt that way some time
and have possibly needed and de
served a rest. We must not permit
that feeling to so color our thinking,
nowever, that we lose our interest
in men and women, boys and girls.
Jesus had His times of prayer and
quiet communion with the Father,
but for the most part we find Him
out among people. He loved them
and consequently dealt faithfully
with them, showing tenderness to
those who needed it, and often be
ing severely plain and direct in
dealing with those who were hypo
crites. He valued human person
ality highly, hence He gave Himself
in sacrificial devotion to winning,
guiding, eontrolling and, above all,
saving men.
The lesson presents some inter
esting contrasts.
I. How and How Not to Use the
Sabbath (vv. 1-6).
Jesus was at a formal gathering
with invited guests (v. 7) in one
of the chief houses of the commu
nity, on the Sabbath Day. That such
a gathering was held on that day
was a sign of the degeneracy of the
age. “The name thing is being done
on Sunday by Christian people to
day. They go to church (if con
venient) in the morning and devote
the afternoon and evening to recre
ation and social” occasions. We
agree with Dr. Morgan that “the
whole thing is a sign of spiritual
decadence.” That’s how not to spend
the day of rest and worship.
Another wrong thing was that they
used the occasion to try to entrap
Jesus. He was at the feast, not to
“have a good time,” but to minister
to their spiritual needs. They
brought the sick man in to tempt
Jesus to heal on the Sabbath Day.
He used their trickery to condemn
them and to silence them (vv. 4,6).
Declaring God’s truth and His
love for man by worship and by
work for Him—that is the right way
to use the Lord's Day. Let’s get
back to its proper observance.
11. What and What Not to Do for
Advancement (vv. 7-11).
Getting ahead, even at the expense
of others, seems to have been quite
the thing in our Lord’s time, as it
is today. Looking at that smug, self
satisfied crowd of “grabbers,” Je
sus made good use of His presence
at the feast to expose their folly and
selfishness. Again we agree with
Dr. Morgan that one should not “try
for the chief seat. Why not? Be
cause the place of honor is for the
honorable man; and a man who
struggles to sit in the place of honor
proves thereby that he is not an
honorable man.” Think it over!
The way up in spiritual things is
always down. Humility, which is so
despised by the world, is precious
in the sight of God, and will be re
warded by Him. The principle stat
ed in verse 11 is and always will
be true. The young man or woman
who really wants to get ahead will do
well to let it control both thought
and deed. It is a far better rule
for the New Year than any resolu
tion you may have made—and prob
ably forgotten by now.
111. Who and Who Not to Invite
for Dinner (vv. 12-14).
Is the Lord interested in such a
matter as that? Indeed He is! Ev
erything about life concerns Him,
and, as a matter of fact, this is a
very important point. Here an at
titude toward life is revealed which
is vital and fundamental.
Hospitality is a virtue highly re
garded by the Bible (see such pas
sages as Rom. 12:13; I Tim. 3:2;
Titus 1:8; I Pet. 4:9). To debase it
by asking only those whom we ex
pect will ask us in return, is really
to destroy it. It is not hospitality
at all to limit our invitations to
those who invite us. Obviously we
are not to cut them off simply be
cause they do ask us. That is not
the point. We are not to let that be
the controlling factor.
Ask those who cannot pay you
back, if you really want to get a
blessing out of it. There is so much
need in the world that we who fol
low Christ have little time to spend
merely entertaining those who have
no need. God will recompense. Dr.
J, W. Bradbury in The Gist of the
Lesson well says, “There is a good
reason not to seek recompense here;
there are more enduring and valu
able recompenses hereafter (Matt.
6:1-6, 16-18). When we get no rec
ompense here for the good we do,
we ought rather to rejoice than be
sad. It assures better recompense
hereafter.”
He goes on to say, “The profess
ing church has often followed the
world’s method rather than Christ’s
(James 2:1-6).” Sad—but true.
What shall we do about it?

‘There Shall Be Wings’
When Leonardo da Vinci, stand
ing at the edge of the precipice on
Mount Albano, saw the flying ma
chine of his designing crash in
the valley below, he cried to the
winds, so one of his biographers
states: ;
“There shall be wings. If the
accomplishment be not for me,
’tis for some other. It shall be
done. The spirit cannot lie; and
man, who shall know all and who
shall have wings, shall indeed be
as a god.”
Three years before Columbus’
discovery of America, da Vinci
wrote in his notebook; "If the
eagle can sustain himself in the
rarest atmosphere, if great ships
can float across the waves, why
cannot likewise man, by means of
powerful wings, make himself
lord of the winds and rise con
queror of space?”
The question was answered, the
prophecy was fulfilled in the New
World to which the ships of Tos
canelli’s other pupil led the way.
America may proudly cherish the

part of his collection of significant
