BOMBER'S-EYE VIEW Burning fiercely, crippled and out of control, this Mogami-class cruiser, one of Japan's best, wal- lows helplessly in the Pacific after the lads of Uncle Sam's Navy had given her a going over from torpedo planes and bombers. These ships usually carry a crew of 850 officers and men. SU/VDA V SCHOOL LESSON LESSON 27 GOD THE CREATOR lie- unit 1, 2 PRINTED TEXT Genem 1:1-5. 24-31; 2:1 GOLDEN TEXT. In the begin ning God created the heaven* and the earth. Genesis 1:1. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time.- We do not know, and never will on this earth, the time when God created the universe. We do not know exactly when man first appeared. Place. No one knows definit- ely where the Garden of Kden was located, but it is generally agreed that it was somewhere on the continent of A-siu, and prob- ably near where the Tigris and Euphrates Hivers pour their waters into the sea. God The Creator 1. "In the beginning God cre- ated the heavens and the earth." The earth is the only particular body in the whole universe that m named. The heavens are defin- itely and directly related to the earth. Though man lives on the earth, his thinking, his hopes and hU future, relate to heaven. 2. "And the earth was wast* and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." The desola- tion here referred to is limited to the land, to this earth, and is not identified with the entire uni- verse. The I n.t Day 3. "And God said, Let there b light: and there was light. 4. And .-I saw the light, that it wa good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5. And God called the light Day, and the dark- ness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morn- ing, one day." The first word ' :n proceeds from tha mouth of (iod in our Bible w the word Might.' It is not said that God created the darkness. Christ him- elf came to be the Light of tha world in a moral, intellectual and piritual way, as God here, in a physical way, introduce* light into dark world. II..- Sixth Day 24. "And God said, Let tha arth bring forth living creatures after their kind, cattle, and creep- Ing things, and beasta of the eurth fter their kind: and it was no. Kt>. And God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the tattle afU-r their kind, and every- thing thut I-K-. 'in-ill upon the iirtli after its kind: and God saw that it was good. 26. And Goo imiil, Let us make man in our iiiiugc, after our likeliest: and lot them have dominion over the fiflh of the sen, and over the birds of the huavi-ns, anil over the cattle, and over all the ciirth, and over in cry creeping thing that crecpcth upon the earth. 27, And God cre- ated man in nix own image, in the. image of Coil created he him; mule and female croatcil ho them. 2H.

Of course, t MhuiiUI lie rcoif inhered that wr do not see the world as God cre- ated it, for sin has for ages deep- ly and terribly marred our earth. We should observe that the order of creation as revealed in this brief description broken into a series of six chronological periods, is exactly in accord with the ideas of modern science as to the de- velopment of the earth and life upon the earth. We should know that when God created man his creative work ceased, and this also is the verdict of modern science. There has been no creative work subsequent to the creation of man. The Seventh Day 1. "And the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them." The two ideas of cessation and perfection arc em- braced in the word here translated 'finished.' Not simply had God paused in His activity, but the divine idea of His universe had been realized. God's Provition For Man The following factors should bti noted in God's perfect provision for man's welfare us he begun life on this earth: (1) God made him perfect, and that means he had absolute soundness of body; (2) he was given the groat honor of being made in the image of God; (3) he was assigned dominion over the whole earth; (4) he wan placed in an environment of dh- aolute perfection; (5) he was given work to do, and that meant; he wan equipped at once with the intelligence for doing it; (C) he was commanded to replenish the earth, and therefore knew what God intended for him; (7) he was forbidden to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, which means, on the one hand, that he was a moral creature, and would be responsible for obedience to that which is right, and, on the other hand, it implies the mercy of God in giving such a warning. (Indeed it implies more, thut God is profoundly interested in man's welfare). Few Men Rejected By Canadian Navy Surgeon-Capt. A. McCallum of Ottawa, medical director-general of the Koyal Canadian Navy, said in an interview in Winnipeg that during the past 12 months the Navy hail examined 20,548 men and only 11.4 percent had been rejected. The health standard of Canada is "very high," he said, adding the health picture was distorted because men rejected for military service often were branded as "unhealthy and medically unfit." Surgeon-Capt. JMcCull-jm said there have been reports that 40 percent of Canada's youth were medically unfit and that "public men have taken the figures from the National War Services which showed that -10 percent ot' 50,000 examined did not full in 'A' cate- gory. . ." He said reports that 10 percent of Canada's youth weiv medically unfit are "grossly exaggerated through misinterpretation of fig- ures." "It savors of fifth column in- spired rumors," he suid. A man may be rejected in the Navy because- of color defecU in his vision yet he may be perfectly healthy. Great, rituin purchased 20,000 tons of cotton from the Helgian Congo in 1041.

POP Robin Hold* the Trump The Debunking Of Charles Lindbergh Predicton Made One Year Ago Should not be Forgotten It was overlooked in all the ex- citement, but the 1,000-bomber K.A.F. raids ou Cologne and tbe Kulir marked an anniversary for Charles A. Lindbergh that should not be forgotten, notes Washing- ton Merry-Go-Round. Exactly one year ago he soleinii' ly proclaimed at' an America First rally in Hollywood Bowl: "The area, the terrains and the climatic conditions of Great Bri- tain are not advantageous for fly- ing. No matter how many fighting planes we build in America and send to En^'.and, it is not possible to base enough gquadrous in the British Isles to equal in striking power the squadrons that Germany can base on tbe continent of Europe. "Suppose we had au air force that we could send to Kurope. Where could it operate? Some of our squadrons might be based in the British Isles; but It is physic- ally impossible to base enough air- craft in the British Isles alone to equal In strength the aircraft that can be based on the continent of Europe." Mr. Lindbergh may be a disil- lusioned man: lie is certainly a discredited man, says the St. Thomas Times-Journal. Everything he predicted had been wrong, whether speaking as au aviation expert or as a politician. Kecent exploits of the Royal Air Force must have been a shock to his amour prop re. And the irony of the situation is that be ia now working for Henry Fonl to turn out more bombers which will prove him still further wrong. SCOUTING . . . The collecting of discarded flower pots is the latest salvage activity of Sarnia Boy Scouts. The pots are washed and sold to florists. The money is used to purcha.-iu Scout equipment. The Boy Scouts of Belfast are to assist in a "Searcher's Scheme," organized at the request of the war office to operate in that area of Irulund after "nemy air raids. The scheme was insti- tuted to deal with inquiries re- ceived from members of the Forces concerning relatives in dis- tricts where there has been a Nai ; air attack. * * * Following a collection of books and magazines for soldiers' read- ing, the Boy Scout.s of Windsoi found themselves with five tons unsuitable for the purpose. Sold as paper salvage, a substantial sum was realized and contributed to the "Chins Up" fund for the war distressed Scouts of Itritain. Some KnglLsh Boy Scouts were delivering bundles of firewood. At one house was a rather deaf old laity. When she opened her door tho boys announced themselves with a song beginning, "We're the I'anuli.se Troop of Scouts." Quickly the door was shut in their fact's. The Scouts left the wood at a rear door. It later trans- pired that tho old lady had spent a very had night, under the im- pre.ssion that "parachute troops" hiul arrived. * A Itoy Scout did a good turn on .he running board of a doctor's car during a recent Toronto blackout. The doctor, on the way to a home where a baby was ex- pected, was stopped because the blackout Clicker over his cur head liMfht. 1 * showed too much light, A Hoy Scout hopped on his running hoard and guided the doctor to his destination with his blue-light torch. * A $500 scholarship in memory of Sergeant 1'ilot Ninll Burnett, K. C.A.I''., a student at Presbyter- ian Theological College, has been established by his father, Kditor J. It. Burnett of The Charlotte- town (iuanlian. The scholarship will provide an annual award to the student of the college doing tho most outstanding work in youth training, preferably as a Hoy Scout leader, with especial reference to the Montreal Chinese Mission Scout Troop. RADIO REPORTED DIALING WITH OAVE: GEORGIA DEY! While many of the winter fav- orites have gone by the board for the summer holiday months, oth- ers stay with us; and one of those is Jimmie Fidlsr's Hollywood commentaries. Athletic, energetic, dynamic Jimmie Fidler, has led an active and interesting life, since the lure of show business first caught him in its net some fifteen years ago. Jimmie, for the past few months, has been heard on a network of Canadian stations on Monday night. But his broadcast of the 29th was the last on that night you'll hear him this Sun- day night at 9.30, and on Sundays throughout the summer. Fred Allen is holidaying, thus the feasibility of the new time. * * * There'll be some changes made! Thus went a popular song of not so long ago. And when Charlie McCarthy's program returns to the airlar.i s on Sunday, Septem- ber 6th, it will be quite a difur- ent show. Edgar and Charlie and Kay Noble will )>u there all right, but Abbott and Costello branch out with the Andrews Sisters on. a show of their own. * The story of Carry Murdoch, "Soldier's Wife," is the story of many women in Canadian homes today; women whose men have joined the colors women wh are faced with a new, different and often difficult world. Carry's story is told daily on the C'BC network at 11.30 a.m., under tha banner of the War Time Prices and Trade Board. Thus the pro- gram has double significance. With coupon rationing now in effect, the daily messages from the Board, directed to the Cana- dian home-maker, will help many women over the hurdles of a new war-time measure. You'll lik the story too it's heard Monday through Friday. 1150 Favorites Many of the top-notch CKOO presented shows stay around dur- ing the summer months, including the Sunday dramatic highlight, "Academy Award," heard at 6. IS p.m. The stirring "Songs Oui Soldiers Sing," at 5.30 Dr. K T. Salmon's news commentary al 6.00 and a number of after noon shows. Two Wednesday night broad- cast treats stay through the sum- mer too "Flying for Freedom" at 8.00, and "The Bandwagon" at 8.30! - OUR RADIO LOG TOHO.VTO STATIONS CFBB gMa. CBL T4*k OKOL 580k.
