Two Teachers America Calls It The

Identify these Biblical teachers, if you answer correctly after reading the first statement, mark your self 4; If after the second, 3; after the third, 2; after the fourth, 1. (A score of 10 for each set is excellent.)

1. The Book of Acts describes him as "a Pharisee.. doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people."

2.

When Peter and John were under arrest, he "com- manded to put the apostles forth a little space."

3. Time, he explained, would test their teaching; if it. was of men, it would come to nothing, if God, it could not be overthrown.

Stilling a Jewish mob that sought to kill him, the Apostle Paul told them that he had been brought up at the feet of this man and there "taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers."

II

1. His manner of teaching differed radically from that prevalent in his time in being more authoritative.

2. He received so little formal education that some, though deeply impressed by his teaching, believed he had never been taught letters,

3. A certain ruler of the Jews once came to him suy ing. "We know that thou art a teacher sent from God."

4. To-day his teachings are recognised as having set the highest standard of all time.

Bell Airacobra, The United States claims

it is the world's best fighter.

It costa $25,000

in Australian money and is said to be capable of 440 miles an hour.

Let's see what gives the Americans such a high opinion of the Airacobra.

Most novel point in the con- struction of these planes is that the engine is behind the pilot. This allows the pilot to see better where he is going, and makes the plane easier to manoeuvre at high speeds---a valuable asset when a man is travelling at more than 200 yards a second.

Against

this advantage must be set the fact that the pilot is more exposed; us an engine, normally placed in front of him, nets as a shield

The engine in the Airacobra, (A in the diagram) is n 1100- horse-power V-12 liquid- cooled Allison. The pilot sits with his feet on either side of the driving shaft (B), which, farther forward, is then, as you see in the sketch, geared up to the propeller shaft.

The propeller actually re- volves round a hollow shaft through which passes the gun barrel (D). The twin ma- 'chine-guns (E) in each, wing complete the armament.

Still another novel point about this plane is that there is an additional landing wheel to the two normal retractable wheels which you can see in the sketch, just being lowered from each wing.

That third wheel, which tucks away under the nose of the Airacobra, is claimed to give greater stubllity and safety in difficult high speed lunding.

there's a well picture

at the movis down the straat!?!.

His own life has not been emmy. 1e was born in the Somerset- #hire village of Winsford 59 years ago. He went to work at the age of eleven on a Karin, and at a wage of sixpence a week. Later, he drifted into Bristol, and got a Job as a carter driving a milk

float for a restaurant.

In Bristol he also found his carcer. He became interested in trade unionism, and joined the carter's section of the local branch Не шца of the Dockers' Union. soon a minor official and attract- Ing the attention of the pleneer unionist Ben Tillett, who advised him to take up union organisation: as a full-time job."

Bevin The advice was taken. breame successively bronch secre- tary, district accretary, national organiser, and assistant general Secretary of the Dockers' Union. He first came to London after the war to assist in the amalgamation of the Transport Workers' Union and the

Transport Workers' Federation...

He acted as Ben Tillett's right- hand man throughout the negotia- ilons, and in 1922 he became the first general secretary of the Transport and General Workers Union. In the succeeding years he has built up its strength, until It became the formidable all-em- bracing combination of which his old chief had always dreamed.

Such are the bare bones of Ernest Bevin's career as an or ganiser of labour. But a man does not often come to lead a mass

and

organisation by efflelency drive alone. Nor did Bevin. He first got a hold on popular ima- ginallon at the Transport Workers' Court of Inquiry in February, 1920, where he spoke for eleven hours on the dockers claim for better pay and conditions.

The case he put was masterly,

and compelling

title of the "Dockers' KC." never been forgotten.

"No," Bevin replied, "I can only argue with conviction It was по when I am sincere." exaggeration, and later in the year his sincerity and conviction led him to clash with the man under whose Fromlarship he serves fo- day, in what was probably the most powerful threat to a govern- ment ever undertaken by the la- bour and industrial movement in Britain.

In a fiery speech at the Dockers". Union Conference in May. he pioneered the Councils of Action which stopped the war of inter- vention against Russia, then being organised by Mr. Winston Chur- chill at the War Office. Winston Churchill and Ernest Bevin crossed swords again six years later in the General Strike, the one as Chan- coiler of the Exchequer, the other as a member of the Strike Organi- sation Committee.

This time Hovin lost, but poll- tical opposition did not lead to personil · bitterness between the two men. For many year-par- ticularly since Hitler's advent to powerWinston Churchill has had

a1- tacked from the right, he has been attacked from the left. He does not pull his punches. As a negotiator, who is probably second to none in the history of Labour, he has always used the strike weapon us sparing- ly as possible.

Of all the members of the T.U.C., Ernest Bevin has been the least given to making political speeches. The strong speech he made on May Day this year was, therefore, all the stronger. It had two, resulta. It hastened the re- organisation of the government, for Bevin's voice is a powerful one, and he speaks for half a million men organised in the largest trade union in the world. It also made! his inclusion in any new govern-- inent almost inevitable.

Such is Ernest Bevin, Minister of Labour, Warm-hearted, capable, shrewd and hard-hitting. Hla fret speech after his appointment was forthright and to the point-typical of Bevin.

"I hope the War Cabinet will not allow vested interests, profits, or, anything else to stand in the way of maximum production. If this is the polley of the Government, I will ask my people to work like hell to save the lives of our inds."!

And later in the same speech he sald, The position is critical and violent, and will require tremend ous energy. Ho la right, and the tremendous energy of Ernest Be- vin will do much to help the Cabinet deal with a critical and 'violent situation.

No surprise was caused here when the British arrests of Japanese sub- jects had a calming effect in Tokyo and the results of this measure so far have been taken as underlining the general belief here that Japani remains cautious of any serious in- ternational move, while seeing how for politicnt bluff will work.
