Jam and Nlcodemas, tht new Wrth, John 1:1-17. There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nlco demus, a ruler of tht Jews: Tht samt came to Jesus by night, and said unto Him, Rabbi, wt know that Thou art a teacher come from Ood: for no man can do these miracles that Thou doest. except Ood be with Him. Jesus answered ana said unto him. Verily. Ttrlly, I aay unto thee. Except a man be born again, he cannot set the kingdom of Ood. Nlcodemut salth unto Him, How can a man be born when ht la old? Can ha enter the second time Into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered. Verily, verily. I say unto thee. Except a man be born of water and of Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of Ood. That which Is bora of the flesh Is flesh; and that which la bora of the Spirit Is spirit. Marrel not that I said unto the. Tt must bt born again. Tht wind blowrth where It listeth. and thou bearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence H cometh. and whither It goeth: to la every one that Is bora of the Spirit. Nlcodemus answered and said unto Him, How can these things be? . Jesus answered and said unto him. Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee. We speak that wt do know, and testify that wt hart seen; and yt recelrt not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not. how shall ye believe. If I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but He that camt down lrom heaven, even the Son of man which Is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent In the wilder ness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believe th In Him should not per ish, but have eternal life. For Ood so loved tht world, that Ht gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth In Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For Ood sent not His Son Into the world to con demn the world; but that tht world through Him might bt saved.

What set me off on tills un happy line of thought was a news dispatch from Johannesburg. South Africa, saying that ritual murders In Basutoland are pre senting the British authorities with a difficult problem In Afri can administration. And Basuto land Isnt the only part of the dark continent where primitive practices are found. Now If that were the whole story wt might discuss It as a imiar to Ainca. nut the fact Is that In many other countries, of both hemispheres, one finds astonishing examples of barbarism and even sav agery. I've encountered a lot myself. Oetting back to Basutoland. the bodies of 2SJ victims of ritual murder have been found by police ... cwu years. Ana inert I reason to be. ... i.ICT u many cases have gone undis covered. The Gold Coast is another area where this uunw luii persists. Thest present 'day ritual murders in Africa fre quently consist of cutting the victim to pieces while ht sUU is alive. The sacrifice is made to ward off w s-oa lortune. and in that sense art st;uivui. And of course such practices arent confined to .uwjooum. involving human sacrifice Is found in some isolated parti of the West Indies. involving me taking of human life" - ou in primitive parts of the Far East As MACKENZIE 1 tney, named after him. was just deactivated. " HKMCHZL HADLEY, tht tonsorlal artist, rall roader and amateur economist, has predicted that gold at SURE to be devaluated further. Then President Truman said flatly that tt wouldnt be during hit administration. Doe that mean that HST la through after this term, or that Herscfa Is wrong for once? . . . With the HAN situated on the main gyway of KTJH3 students, we received two tog- k iUCH more common than the horrors of ritual IY murder are practices Involving the supernatur al, and I have encountered these In many parts of tne world. For instance, a lot of weird beliefs cen ter In the Hindu sadhus. or spirit doctors, who are found not only In the Oriertf but In the West Indies. I ran into some amazing examples of these spirit doctors In Trinidad a few years ago. They operated in secret In tht Jungle districts, because the police were hunting them, but I managed to visit some of them through the assistance of an Indian college proieasor wno ceueved In them. . These sadhus treat disease with Incantations. They drive out evil spirit which art plaguing folk, and they Invoke disaster against your enemy for a cash consideration, of course. I was told by educated folk that these things actually work, though you cant prove it oy me. The entire district where I found the urih.u ... reeking with the supernatural. Not only the doctors ous every naave I talked with was wrapped up In It Ohost. evil spirits and good spirit were aU over th place. Here is one typical story I was told- The father of several sons had enemies whom he wished to punish. He believed and It was common belief that If you bury a body face downward. Its " return ana start lashing people with apini n couia control and so he u mi sons and burled him face down. The boy's spirit came back all right and started " out got out of the farmer's control The result was that the spirit was visiting tht old Hogging the fsther. mother and "umereuuiiy. ims. mind you. was a -fact and -common knowledge." so I was told. SO to stories went-doiens of them. And I en. countered these things not only in the West "u tas wnere the lives of untold million art controlled by the spirit doctors. Actu ally many of these sadhus are men of much ability and considerable learning. 7 Do they believe what they teaeh? I think some of them undoubtedly do. Doctor Soyi Milk Pasteurization Does Not Lower Nutrition Value y EDWIN r. JORDAN. M. n Milk Is one of the most vain.hi. and widely used foods available to -u. provides energy and con tains some minerals and is rich In car' ohydrates, fats and proteins. Besides Its excellent nutritive alue, milk can carry dlseast germs. Oct ms relish milk, too, and can grow In It with great speed. The germs can get Into milk di rectly from an Infected cow or may drop In anywhere along Its path be tween th cow and the consumer. Infected milk has caused disease In many people. The germ of tubercu losis Is carried In milk. Typhoid fever or brucellosis are also spread by contaminated milk. The spread of dlseast germs through milk can be checked. The way to do this Is simple and weU known. It Is only necessary to use process of treating milk with heat which destroys the disease germs which may bt present. This heat treatment Is called pasteurization a name which It received from the great French pioneer m bacteriol ogy, Louis Pasteur. Cow Moat Be Healthy Destroying germs by heating la no excuse for supplying consumers with dirty milk. The more healthy the cows, the cleaner the collecting methods, the transportation and the bottling, the fewer the germs which have to be destroyed by pasteuriza tion. Great steps forward have been made In getting cleaner milk. Anyone who realizes the protec tion which they and their families have been given by pasteurization of milk should feel that a great step forward has been taken. To go back to the old unprotected raw milk would expose people to the un necessary danger of catching dis ease germs through milk which they drink.

ANSWER: There I probably something wrong either with your heart or with the circulation In your legs. There are a few other but far less likely possibilities.

Business New Looks at Convention Of Manufacturers this Year By 8 AM DAVYKON NEW YORK. Dec. 141 There's ai air of rnus-flngered optimism at tht Waldorf-Astoria. In Ita opulent grand ballroom, America's most gilt, taring pageant nf Industrial might Is under way. And this time, as con trasted to last year, the boys at tending tht congress of American Industry aren't acarrd half to death. They were last year. Most of the three ihoiiaand tup men In our man. ularturing Industries, who gather annually for tht meeting of the National Association of Manufac turers, were enlovliut Uie verv noak of record prosperity, when NAM met a year ago. But many of them were on record as warning that a bad slump could be expected In 1M. You could fairly see the hslr standing up on inrir Ilea as. Not Bad This time, most of them admit IMS turned out to be a pretty mod year, after a bad start. And most of them appear to believe that ISM win be a better one. Some even think a new Doom may bt starting. Of course, there'll probably be a good deal of viewing with alarm during the next few days at the naiauri it s pretty hard for most manufacturers to lace In the dtrec. tlon of Washington with coninosure And NAM speakers will stress tilt tnuigs they think art wrong, dan gerous or threatening In our econo my, and list the things they'd like to see changed particular in taxes ana governmental Interference with business. But as to business prospects, most manufacturers are reported to be expecting to do better In 1950. es pecially In the first half of the vear. And In this optimism there Is some evidence that manufacturers lead both wholesalers and retailers. The Is closer to the public, and more Impressed by tht tight string John Q. Public Is keeping on his purst wnen he goes shopping. Optimism Some 300 manufacturers wert Questioned at the end of November by Dun A Bradstreet, and Tl per cent said they expect to equal or exceed their IMS first quarter levels in the first three months of 1950. New orders. SI per cent predict, will equal or surpass last year's volume. The buslnes agenry Interviewed an equal number of wholesalers and retailers and found tlirm a Utile lea optimistic. However. Hire fourth of all th manufacturers, wlioleaalrrs and re tailers queried think sales volume In Iht first three months of 1950 will equal or exceed first quarter 1949. Two-thirds of them think net profits III bt si good or better, and four fifths of them hop to hire as many or more tmployes. Mere Cheer Members of NAM are also cheered by tht quirk recovery Industry seems to bt making after tht steel and coal strikes, and by the higher than expected level at which Industrial production held during tht strikes. Tht census bureau reports this THURSDAY, DEC. 8, 1949 week hslf million Increase In th number of employed In November, and a drop In tilt total of Jobless. iTIi bureau doesn't count striker as unemployed). It la noted, how ever, that Uie Jobless still totsl 14 million, compared with 1.1 million Just a year ago. . The manufacturers seem to be counting on fairly steady buying liom their customers, now that re tall Inventories hav been worked down In many cases. And soma In Hi NAM msy hsv caught th feel ing prevalent In sectors of th fl nanrlal district that Inflation I about to play a return engagement, Hoffmen Tact And Paul O. Hoffman delicately brings up another thing. With not able restraint.

There are not now and never hav been any communist In the NAM."
