SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Jesuf 'Cite Teacher, Guide and Savior "had Sublime Courage, Graciousness Scripture: The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John; with V- Isaiah 61:1-9 By , WILLIAM E. GILROY, D. D. iyThe.life of Jesus was a minis try.; He said concerning Himself: ''Trie- Son of Man came not to be ininistered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many." In one aspect of that life it might be summed up in the say ing, "He that was only one aspect. Jesus was not only a doer of good, a minister bringing help, and comfort, and blessing as He went about Galilee and Judea. He was a teacher, and a guide, and a Savior. His min istry was to go for beyod His earthly life. It was everlasting in its nature, and boundless in its outreach. The significance of Jesus was the Gospel that He brought to men. We call Christian min ister today "minister of the Gospel," and happy is the church and- community that has as its religious leader a true minister of the Gospel, and not just a use ful community chore-boy, as I once heard one minister de scribed! Except for those who prefigured His coming, Jesus was the first, and the supreme, Minister of the Gospel. He brought the news of God's grace to men, and of that grace there is no limitation, in its availability, and in its effective ness. It is of this gospel of the JUST RECEIVED!

A Children's day program will be conducted by Mrs. Lillian Johnson and Miss May Anderson, grace of God that the hymn writer has written: "Its streams the whole crea tion reach. So plenteous is the store; Enough for all, enough for each; Enough forevermore." But the Gospel was not only a message, a teaching; it was Jesus Himself. He did not just tell men of the grace of God; He lived it. And that ministry that dealt with the sublime, and all that was noblet and greatest, was great in all the little things. He took the children up in His arms and blessed them, when the disciples would have sent them and their mothers away; He noticed the widow giving her mite in the Temple, and He commended her above all the wealthy givers; He washed the disciples, feet, that He might en force His lesson concerning hu mility and service; and the rich est and deepest of his teaching lie gave to a woman whom He met at a well, a stranger, of a people with whom the Jews had no dealings. Well might the disciples marvel, when they came from the city and found Him thus conversing, for apart from the woman being a Samari tan, it was against all the con ventions of the time for a man thus to be publicly conversing with a woman. He dared, even in the face of His critics, to receive sinners and eat with them. His courage was as sublime as His faith and His graciousness. He who warned His disciples to "beware of men" had no fear of men, or of what men might do to Him. He cared only about doing His Father's will, and about finishing the work that the Father had given Him to do.

Feminine By EPSIE KINARD NEA Staff Correspondent NEW YORK An army hitch of 28 months has given Sgt. Shir ley Angel of New York City, first WAC discharged under the point system, a new appreciation for late morning ' pillow-pound ing, tub baths, milk shakes, high heel shoes and all the feminine frills, especially hats. Back home from Italy, where she was secretary to the com manding general in the Mediter ranean Air Transport Service, this girl vet of World War II ex pects to catch up on her rest be fore she starts looking for an other secretarial job. This time, she hopes it will be combined with traveling. Her WAC's tour of the world from Daytona Beach, Fla., to Louisiana, from Massachusetts to Virginia, from port to embark ation to Oran, thence to Algiers and Naples, has given Shirley an appetite for traveling which she hopes a new civilian job will con tinue to satisfy. Out of the army ahead of her boy friend, this former , Hunter college student and civil service employe of the army air force, stationed at Marana Field, near Tucson, Ariz., is making no further plans until her Johnny comes marching home. Civilian First Class In the meantime, Shirley is bucking for civilian first class by sleeping as late as an indulgent family will tolerate nicest thing about it, she says, is knowing that she'll get breakfast no mat ter what the hour and renew ing her acquaintance with fav orite foods, Broadway shows, beauty shops, long soaks in a bath tub, and civilian duds which she finds both strange and ex citing. Her wardrobe introduction back to feminity was turned into a gala event by the gift of an outfit made by Jay Thorpe, swank New York store. Accom panying Shirley on this expedi tion, I had the pleasure of wit nessing the transformation of the first GI Jill into a civilian glamor gal. Choice of a hat was tough there were so many flowery fan cits and veil-swathed concoctions from which lo pick but finally a big black peek-a-boo straw won the honor of replacing the jaunty little overseas cap. The diess to which khaki garb gave way was a short - sleeved, apron - ruffled frock, ensembled with long arm climbing gloves, choker necklace and flashing earrings. Army bio- Can Help This War Finery gans were kicked off for open toed, ankle-strapped shoes with spike heels. When togged out, Shirley gazed at herself from every angle in the mirror, obviously finding it hard to recognize the girl she saw. 1 Social Calendar MONDAY ' , 8 p. m.
