CAN WE THE BIBLE ALIKE? - The foregoing scriptures prove to us that when people understand the Bible they understand un-derstand it alike. But why is it that some people do not understand un-derstand the Bible? One good reason can be found in. the case of Naaman the leper. When he was told what to do to be healed of his leprosy, he said, "I thought." What did you think, Naaman? "I thought he will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the Lord his God." What else did you think, Naaman? Naa-man? "I thought," he would "strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper." (2 Kings 5:11). Naaman had his mind made up as to how he should be healed, and when the prophet of Gold told him that he must go and wash seven -times in Jordan, he turned away in a rage, for this was" not the way he thought-he thought-he would be healed. God said, "wash seven times In Jordan." But, Naaman said, "Are not Abana and Pharper, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and-, clean?" (2 Kings 5:1-12). Just as long as Naaman turned away from 'what God told him to do, he remained a leper. When he turned and faithfully obeyed what God commanded, he was then healed of his leprosy. Many people today decide in their own minds Just how they want to be saved before they know what God would have them do. Another reason why people do not understand the Bible alike is given to us in the example ex-ample of Moses. (Num. 12:1- 13) . Moses' sister became afflicted af-flicted with leprosy and when Moses saw that she was a leper, he "cried unto the Lord, saying. Heal her now, O God, I beseech thee." Moses knew what to do when one was afflicted af-flicted with leprosy (Num. 12: 14) but he asked God to set aside His law and heal his sis- - ter right then. Too many people peo-ple have acted like Moses in that they think God ought to save them or their loved ones just the, way they want to be 'saved, oven if He has to set aside His own law. ; - Tomorrow we will take the , divine rule and make a few applications. :g XHXJBCH OF CHRIST $ -Sf7 East Center SL, Prove DAILY HERALDVJI R!JJIn m Kesisr Army control of all properties sized Dec 28 to' enforce war labor board directives on wages and maintenance of union member ship.

Cold Yave Hits The Middle Vest By United Press A cold wave returned to the middle west todav. while temner. atures in the New England and! eastern states rose to give temporary tem-porary relief in those sections.

Low temperatures prevailed throughout in the eastern Dakotas through Minnesota, Wisconsin, upper Michigan, Iowa and northern north-ern Illinois, the bureau said.

Western Front (Continued from Page One) or greater strength in support of the northern offensive. Germans Halted As the new offensive opened, word came from the American Seventh army front along the Saar and Rhine to the southeast that large-scale German counterattacks counter-attacks on those sectors had been virtually halted after the Americans Ameri-cans had abandoned some of their footholds inside the Siegfried line. Tanks, troops and guns of Lt Gen. Courtney H. Hodges' U.' S. First army command swung forward for-ward to the attack at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday 19 days almost to the hour from the time the Nazis moved out of their Siegfried line on Dec. 16 to open their winter offensive. The scale of the new drive was indicated by the fact that Hodges sent his forces into action under low-hanging clouds that stripped the Americans of all direct aerial support at the outset and permitted permit-ted the enemy to shift their reserves re-serves inside the pocket without fear, of attack from the air. Heavy snows were reported falling fall-ing all across the front early today. to-day. With almost half their 20 divisions di-visions pinned down by Patton's attack in the south, there appeared appear-ed little likelihood that the Germans Ger-mans could avoid committing their remaining forces to the showdown battle. Big Allied Bid-Headquarters Bid-Headquarters spokesmen made it clear that this was the big Allied Al-lied bid. to engage and destroy the 200,000 crack troops and hundreds hun-dreds of tanks that Marshal Karl Von Rundstedt had drawn from Germany's last strategic reserves for his great gamble.

Services Blamed For Misuse Of Manpower Supply WASHINGTON, Jan. 4 0J.FD Sen. Harley M. Kllsore, D.. W. Vsu, charged today that the 'army and navy were partially respon sible for the present manpower crisis through ''flagrant misuse' of men already in uniform. Kilgore, who has specialized m manpower' studies by the senate war investigation committee and has long advocated total war mobilization mo-bilization legislation, said the armed forces could greatly alle viate the. present shortage by careful reassignment of men now In otner. tnan combat duty. "They ought to take the physi cally fit men now fh uniform and put them in combat service," ne said. "They could use those not fit for combat in the. supply lines to the front and at bases here and abroad. They could also put mil itary personnel into service ware houses which now employ approximately ap-proximately 300,000' - civilians. Those civilians then could be channeled either into the combat forces or other essential work. Kilgore expressed doubt that a long-term solution to the manpower man-power crisis would be provided by the series of new proposals by Mobil izattnn nirp(nr Jimi V Byrnes. What Is needed, he said is something like his total mobilization mobili-zation measure a unified program pro-gram backed by sufficient legal force to compel proper use of manpower and material.

Mr. Quinney ssid that some time ago the railroad did not wish to abandon when approach- j ed by the Chamber of Commerce as its station was situated in a good place.
