Only God can provide the necessities of life. Rationing has taught us that lesson anew if we have been at all thoughtful about it. The plan is one of sharing. Sharing what? The food and other provisions which come to us from God's hand. Unless our crops are good there will be less to share.

Only God can help us. This was the lesson Israel learned in the wilderness. To reach the to which God was leading them they must pass through the wilderness. Not only were there many weary miles to travel, but there were privations to be borne. Life is like that.

Now they cried for food. Note how elemental are man's needs in the final analysis--bread and water. The very things we take almost for granted as concern ourselves with life's vveigr.ty interests and pio- found problems become, if lacking, the only things that have any real meaning. And who is it that can provide them? No one but God Himself. I.

Bread from Heaven (Exod. 1G: 11-18). Israel's longing for meat was met by the miraculous coming of quantities of quail (v. 13). But that was not the food to sustain them day after day.

For this they needed bread, and it came from heaven, every day until they entered the promised land (Josh Observe four things about the manna. First, it was a divine provision. There are responsibilities in life which we may bear--and must bear --but in the ultimate meeting of our real needs we must look to God. Secondly, it was a daily provision. What forehanded folk many of us are, and no doubt rightly so, for God puts no premium on improvidence.

But once again we must recognize, as did Israel in receiving the daily manna in the wilderness, that ours is indeed a moment by moment existence. We plan bravely for the next decade or the next generation, but as a matter of fact it can only come to pass "if the Lord will" (read James Next, it was a limited provision- enough for the day and no more, except for a double portion on the sixth day, and none at all on the Sabbath. These provisions were made clear to Israel, and yet there were those who attempted to lay up for the morrow, and some even went out to seek manna on the Sabbath day. We marvel at their stubborn obtuseness, but are we not often just like them. Some there are who are always expecting that the laws of both God and man should be set aside for them, but they come to grief.

Finally, it called for diligence and action on their part. They had to be out early each day (except the Sabbath) to gather it. God's mercies are for those who are willing to obey Him. He gives to those who receive by active faith. n.

Water from the Rock (Exod. "And the people the daily manna was not enough, they must have water. Needy, yes, constantly needy are God's children. "Every life knows the bite of necessity every soul cries out in pain because there is wanting some completing favor, some culminating and all-contenting benediction. Here it is bread; there it is water; but everywhere a famine in many a case a famine of soul, a spiritual destitution, a consciousness of a void which time cannot satisfy or space content." God always provides.

There is a rock in the wilderness. But what pleasure does a murmuring people find in a rock when they famish for water? It is God's delightful custom to meet our needs in unexpected ways and by means which we do not understand. Even our physical necessities come from unthought of sources. in. Christ, the Bread and Water of Life.

Our lesson does not give the Ntw Testament application of Israel's experiences, but let us not miss that blessed spiritual truth. In John Christ is declared to be the true bread from heaven, of which the manna was but a type. Paul speaks in I Corinthians 10: 1-4 of this incident in the history of Israel, saying that they "did all eat the same spiritual meat, and did all drink the same spiritual drink; for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ" (see also John Hungry and thirsty soul, you who are still unsatisfied after tasting all that life apart from Christ has to offer, will you not, just now, take Him?

In the first eight days the center has been operating 1117 cans of vegetables and fruit have been canned.

Everyone seems interested.

HlLLbttUKU Mr. and Mr-. i i a Wi i a Ernest Foglp and daughters, of Washington, an 1 vi-iimi; Mi. of Walkersville, and Mrs. Lorini? Quinn, Acting Manager of the Club, said there is reason to expect a change for the bettor in motoring conditions.

"While." he said, "thc supply of gasoline for the home fiont cannot possibly assume normal proportions in time of war, a more equitable distri- oution of fuel will to Easter-i motorists a share of available supplies they have Ion? been denied." The Club's program for relief Eastern motorists includes these principal points: "1. Supply every military need, with a wide margin of safety, and apportion the remaining gasoline fairly to the motorists of the United States. "2. Abandon tne abortive 'pleasure' driving crusade and permit every motorist to use his rationed allotment in the same manner he usss other rationed commodities. "3.

The Club feels, the statement added, that "a motorist would rather have a gallon of gasoline in his tank than an extra penny in his explaining that a 35-cent-per-barrel increase in the price of crude would amount to approximately a one-cent per gallon increase in the gas. OPA has refused an increase, on the ground it would be inflationary. Secretary Ickes and the oil industry contend the increase is necessary to assure a continued supply of oil, through exploration of new sources and the operation of wells which at the present price of oil are unprofitable.
