'T'HE new radio program spon-
A sored by Westinghouse is
one of the most interesting and
significant on the air. It is broad-
cast from Pittsburgh every
Thursday from 8:00 to 8:30 p.
m , Eastern standard time, on
97 stations of NBC’s blue net-
work. It is beamed to Europe,
South America and other for-
eign lands.
Its aim is an important one. When
Kenneth Watt, who produces and di- j
rects it, was asked to make up "Mu-
sical Americana,” he had three
things to remember. Primarily, he
was to give American music to his j
audiences. He was to try to please

and inspire a sharper appreciation
of serious music in those who think
they can’t understand it. And he
was to give young American musi-
cians a chance.
So, on “Musical Americana,”
Deems Taylor is commentator. Ray-
mond Paige conducts the orchestra
of 102 men. from the Pittsburgh
Symphony; it is the largest orches-
tra on any sponsored broadcast.
And each week a solo musician of
exceptional talent is featured. The
principal music schools of the coun-
try have been asked to recommend
their star graduate students for
these appearances.
Deems Taylor, Raymond Paige
end Kenneth Watt are top men ta
their fields; Westinghouse has
' spared neither time nor effort to
i give us a superb program, made
up of the music of our own country.
Thursday should be "Musical Amer-

When You Serve a Crowd
Whether it’s your responsibility to
provide unusual eats for the Senior
skating party, or an inexpensive
menu for the church supper, cook-
ing ta quantities does present prob-
lems!
Unless you have recipes designed
to serve large numbers, it's safer
to make quick breads, cakes and
cookies, according to standard fam-
ily size recipes, doubling them, per-
haps, but no more. Proportions of
ingredients change as recipes be-
come larger, and it’s no simple mat-
ter for an amateur to guesq at them.
Plan refreshments to suit the sea-
son and your guests. When equip-
ment Is make-
shift, the help
limited, and the
mm*.
select foods that
are easily pre-
pared and served, and foods that
won’t be hurt by standing.
For the simplest sort of refresh-
ments after skating or skiing, hot
spiced tea is ideal.
Clam chowder, with toasted
crackers, makes a hearty, satisfy-
ing and substantial dish to serve
after a sleigh ride ta the frosty air.
Spaghetti or macaroni make inex-
pensive, lhainstay dishes for a
church supper or midwinter meet-
ing of the P. T. A. Served with a
crisp salad, hard rolls and fresh
fruit for dessert, Italian spaghetti
makes an unusual and easy-to-serv#
meal.
You’ll find the tested recipes be-
low practical when you entertain a
crowd, and if you're planning a
smaller party, my booklet entitled
“Easy Entertaining” will give you
suggestions for menus and recipes,
too.

STEWARDS IN THE KINGDOM
LESSON TEXT—lfetiitew IS. 14-21.
GOLDEN TEXT-Well done tW* gue«
six! fsithful servsm. -Matthew 25:21.
Christ is coming again! This is
the message of Matthew 24 and 25,
which is the background for the les-
son of today. Here we also learn
of the end of the age. To many it
seems that the time cannot be long
before that great and fateful day
breaks upon this chaos which we
call civilization. These two chap-
ters contain much important pro-
phetic truth, but in studying our les-
son we must limit ourselves to the
one fact that when Christ does come
1 again we shall be called to give an
' account of our stewardship
Men are prone to think of their
life as something accidental. They
are here and they seem to have cer-
tain abilities and opportunities
which they may make use of or not
as they choose, and then when the
time comes, they expect to leave
this world, in which they have
sought primarily tor pleasure and
ease, and go out into eternity with-
out any special responsibility. That
theory of life was undoubtedly pre-
pared by the devil and is promoted
| by him for the purpose of destroy-
ing the souls of men.
I. Christ Makes Men Stewards
of His Goods (vv. 14-18).
All men are stewards, for it is
evident that our Lord has given to
j each one of us ability and oppor-
tunity to serve Him. The unbeliever
who entirely rejects or ignores His
responsibility before God will have
to answer for His failure to follow
and serve Christ. So will the pro-
fessing Christian who denies his pro-
! fession by his works have to answer
for his hypocrisy. Every true Chris-
tian likewise must stand before the
judgment seat of Christ and be
, judged for the work he has done >
in the flesh.
The Lord has committed to each ;
man responsibility according to his
ability. God is not unreasonable.
He does not demand that which is
beyond our capacity. He gives to
each one the amount of His goods
which that man is able to make use
of, and then it becomes his respon- 1
sibility to use those goods diligently
and faithfully.
II. Christ Will Return for a Stew
ardship Accounting (v. 19).
Life is far from • meaningless
existence without responsibility and !
ultimate accountability. Christ is
coming again, we know not when,
but we know that He is coming and
that He may come today. What ;
answer will you and I give Him
when He asks us to account for the
goods He has left in our care?
Well aware sue we that there are
those who scoff at the thought of
Christ’s return. The Bible told cen-
turies ta advance that we should
expect such an attitude of unbelief,
and it also told why men scoff at
; this truth, namely, because they are
"walking after their own lusts" and
are "willingly ignorant" of God’s
Word (see II Peter 3:341).
What a solemn indictment that is!
Let us see that it does not apply to
us. Let us rather be among those
who are “looking for that blessed
hope, and the glorious appearing of
the great God and our Saviour Jesus
Christ” (Titus 2:13). In preparation
for that day let us obey His admoni-
tion, "Occupy till I come” (Luke
19:13), that we may not stand
ashamed ta His presence ta that
day.
III. Faithfulness Brings Reward,
Unfaithfulness Results ta Judgment
(w. 20-27).
j The mun who because of special
ability had received five talents had
1 a great opportunity to serve his
lord, and he did so with courage
and fidelity. So also did the man
who because of lesser natural en-
dowments received two talents.
Both made the most of their oppor-
“ equally faithful.
Ways to Happiness
are two ways of being
iminish
There
happy—we may either di
our wants, or augment our means
—either will do- -the result is the
same; and it is tor each man to
decide for himself, and do that
which happens to be the easiest—

We shall not be judged on
of the greatness or the limitation
of our opportunities, but rather by
the use we make of them That
fact should encourage the one who
is by circuntetance or calling con-
fined to a limited field, while it
should solemnize and stir to greater
j faithfulness the one who has been
given great opportunity. Observe
that the reward for doing one s work
well is not retirement and a pen-
sion, but more work (v. 21).
What about the man with the one
talent? Apparently he yielded to
the evar-puesent temptation to be
hurt because he did not receive aa
much aa the others <w. 34-18). In-
stead of appreciating the ■
of ha lord ta not
with more
to care for, and doing what he could
with what he had, he hid the latent
ta the ground and went about his
owe business. Such rebellion and
carelessness naturally brought forth
the reproof of the master aad judg-
ment (see vv. 38, 80).
