And Naaman swallowed his pride. and obeyed, and the flesh of the leper "was restored like the flesh of a little child. and he was clean." (II Kings ii). I I We do so want to win credit for ourselves, even before God; but none is due. The Living Lord, who bought us at so sore a price. asks us only to give Him a basics. and He will meet our need according to His riches in glory. , A series of evangelistic services was once being held in a village near Toronto. One evening the subiect was The New Birth as ex- plained ln the third chapter of Saint John's Gospel. Toward the close of the meeting a drunken man slipped into a back seat. He was a character well known in the district. and he challenged the elders of the church with the ques- tion: "why didnt Jesus answer Nicodemus question?" They in- sisted that Jesus did. but the old Inquirer was resolute: "No, He didn't, Nicodemus asked: "How can these things be?" and Jesus didn't answer that question." . . . . But Jesus did answer it. He had told this religious leader that a man must. be born again In order to enter the Kingdom of God. and that no man could work this change in himself. He must be born of water and of the spirit. the one signifying cleansing. and the other the renewing of the man's na- ture. The Inquirer was perplexed and asked: "How can these things be?"iJesus. in reply. expressed sur- prise that a teacher in Israel should need to BK such a question, and added: "As lfoscs lifted up the serpent in the wilderness so must the Son of Man he lifted up. that whoever believes in Him may have eternal life." rJohn Ii: l4-15).. "To have eternal life" and "To be born again" mean the same thing. So far from this answer being too simple it includes everything. It means self-committal, seif-sn- trustment to Christ that He may do for us what we cannot do for ourselves. We have sinned. and only the one against whom we have sinned can forgive. we are dead in our sinfulness: only the Creator can create anew. The faith He asks for is just trust. giv- ing ourselves up to Him that He may make of us what He has de- signed. Now this is the last thing that proud human nature wants to do. but it is God's way of salva- tion. "He who believes in the Son has eternal life." Jesus said: "He who hears my word and believes Hi.m Who sent me l-ias,eternal life: he,does not come into judgment. but has passed from death to life." Nothing could be more explicit. and there are many such state- ments. so "believe and live." IN MEMORIAM IfliS. DOUGALD MICIACHER-N suddenly. on January 18. at the one of her daughter.

CHARDOTTETOWN Seven Days A Week .. (fly Anna lbuuios) l. " f y: says a fashion ed- itor of fifty years ago: "A good housekeeper prepares for weeks ahead for the semi-yearly visit of the dreeemaker. Drawers or a large wooden box should be neat- ly lined and well supplied with ntohair. braid, gray and black canvas. hair cloth for interlining. gray perooline, feather boning of different. sizes. belting. dress bind- ing. shields. collar frames. and trimming of all sorts!" Quite I. forbidding list, wasn't it and quite different than today's equipment a ,dressma.ker has on hand. The same magazine canted this ad- vice: f'What shall I do with my too-thick eyebrows?" queries 1: reader. "You might use better than this deooction." answers the fashion editor. "but I doubt it! 'At night, paste the hairs in the eye- brows into a good position using a. thick paste of boiled quince seeds. It will keep them nicely within boundsh"-Porsonallygl don't doubt that! L 2.-Tuesday: Two desserts com- ing up-ones that will tickle your palate too. Here we go: 1. Over freshly baked apples pour hot lemon pic filling (make up a re- ceipt. of lemon pic filling as it tells you on the box). Of course serve immediately. No. 2: Molasses custard is a pleasant change from the usual run of custards. 'You beat 8 eggs slightly. add 1-4 cup molasses, 1-4 tsp. salt, 1 tsp. van- illa. stir in 2 cups soaldcd milk. Bake in a pan of hot water in a moderate oven-just as you would any custard. 3.-Wednesday: Today I platit- ed a package of dahlia seed. By the time "May morning" comes around, I shall have a lot of lit- tle drahlia plants to set out in the garden. (I hcpel). They really thrive once they get a. foothold and it's airways a big thrill to see the different colors, sizes and shapes that appear from time to time What a lot of' pleasure from a very small package of seed! Last year I planted begonita seed in a long shallow box and tended it. oh so carefully until a host of tiny plants appeared. Then -mama cat-oat decided a begonia. bed was the best place of all to take a nap. No matter where I moved that box she would eventually find it and curl up contcntedly to snooze! You can guess the result! Why didn't I buy bulbs in the beginningll 4.-Thursday: An employment office was checking an applicant's list of references. ”I-low long did this man work for you?” a. former employer was asked. "About four hours". was the reply. "Why. he told us he'd been with you for a long time," said the astonished caller. "Oh yes," answered the ex- employer, the was-heis been with us for two years!" 5.-Friday: A nice fish salad might do wonders for today: meal. Mix l-4 cup mayonnaise with 1 tbsp. pickle juice. Combine with 2 tbsps. diced sweet pickles. 1 cup canned tuna or salmon (broken finely). 1-2 cup sliced celery, l-2 cup chilled cooked peas. Toss. Just before serving, add 1 cup coarsely crushed potato chips Serve on crisp greens-makes 4 servings. 6.-S-aturdly: Now that we've more or less worn down: the win- tor, hopes of spring rise higher with every new day. Late winter is a time of a waiting. No sounds but snow-cloaked bran- ches creaking, Restless whispers of the wind. And silence unto silence speaking.

The wind blllowsv and moans outside the windows. and the house is a warm little island; oar lights, returning from a card party in the hall on the hill, cut a path of light through the night and turn the mtall snowbanks into mounds of shining crystal. How fortunate we are to live in the country, I think, as I let Hoppy (called after Hopslong Cassidyi) out. for a mid- night run in the soft new snow True, often we lack the many com- forts of our city cousins, but. the country has many comps 'ong.. the still dark velvet skies, strewn with stars, the infinite splendor of a day after storm, glory of gun on trackless snow, g sturdy fires. sparkling and crackling welcom- ing us in from outdoors are only 9. few of the many things that make up for the attractions of city life. of course it could be that I like the country in any mood- could be!

He stared through that open door into the office. The waitress scuttled inside. The chair scraped as Jerry rose. Mr. B. B. Twombley looked up at last. Then Jerry had his first glimpse of the face. It was round and pas- ty: the nose was good. but the mouth foo smai. and the lipstlack- ed color. The eyes were dark and narrow. , "Shifty," iudged Jerry. To be continued - NEW GLASGOW UNITED W. M.

Bennett says the British Columbia government has given percussion to Frobisher Limited for surveys of the B. C. section of a proposed vast water power development which would dwarf the Aluminum Company of Can- ada. project at Kitlmat, B.C. ' The premier said Friday that the government has been approached for water power rights in the big northern watershed but that no uptions have yet been given. Fro- bisher Ltd. is a big exploration and development company with chemical and metallurgical inter- ests around the world. It proposes to develop a 17,000-square-mile area along the BC.-Yukon border. The watershed has a power po- tential of 5,000,000 horsepower. The Alcan project, scheduled to go into operation next year, has a potential of 1,600,000 horse- 'er. Only last month, the federal government turned down a. re- quest from Aluminum Company of America that it use the water- shed to produce power for a giant smelter in Alaska. In the new proposed develop- ment, the plant and smelters might be built at Glacier Bay, just on the Canadian side of the B.C.-Alaska border. It was believed the British Co- lumbia. government had the Frob- isher bid in mind when the fed- eral government turned down the Alcoa request. Such a project must be approved by both the federal and provincial governments. LAKE VERDE W. I.

Another example of this kind, is to be found in the late Frank- lin D. Roosevelt's First Inaugural Address. "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." To many the famous pronouncement. was a I PAGE THREE brand-new brain child of the Pre- sident's. It was not! David Thor- eau writing in his Journal some 84 years ago said: "Nothing in so much to be feared as fear." The thought was for from origi- nal. even with Thoreau. and going back to the lath century we read of saint Theresa of Avila, the Spanish mystic, putting the same thought this way: "There in only one thing to fear and that is fear."
