Swift & Company
Has Not "Jest Growed"
Swift & Company, in fifty years of well
ordered growth, has become one of the
great national services because it has
learned to do something for the American
people which they needed to have done
for them, in the way in which they
preferred to have it done.
It has met each successive demand, in
the changing conditions of national life,
by getting good meat to increasing mil
lions effectively, efficiently, economically,
and expeditiously.
The Swift & Company packing plants,
refrigerator cars, car routes, branch
houses, organization, and personnel of
today are the practical solutions, born of
practical experience, to the food problems
of half a century.
Because of all these elements working in
correlation and unison, Swift & Company
i3 able to supply more and better meat to
more people than would have been pos
sible otherwise, at a net profit per pound of
meat so low (a fraction of a cent) that the
consumer price is practically unaffected.
Strip away any portion of this vast,
smooth-running human machine, and you
make a large part of the meat supply
uncertain, lose the benefit of half a century
of fruitful experience, and scatter the
intelligent energies of men who have
devoted a life work toward meeting the
needs of a nation in one vital field.

The motive which moved Rcbekab
to send Jacob awny was a mixed one.
She realized that Esau's an(?er was hoi
against Jncob, even to the point where
he was likely to kill him. She further
knew that Justice would have to be
meted out to him, nnd thus dho would
bo bereft of them both. Then, too,
rhe realized that If Jacob remained
In that lund he would likely marry a
heathen woman and thus defeat God's
purpose regarding the covenant nutlon.
This latter she pressed upon Isaac as
a motive for sendluu hlra away.
I. Jacob's Flight (v. 10).
He was fleeing from his outraged
brother. Ills flight was necessary to
save his life. He seems not to have
gone the common road, so as to be Iokj
likely overtaken by Esau, should he
pursue him. Through forced march ho
reaches Bethel, a spot nearly fifty
miles away, by nightfall.
II. Jacob's Vision (vv, 11-17).
Jacob's soul was peculiarly tested.
He had to leave home and mother. On
the way to Hnrun night overtukes him,
and he is obliged to sleep In a field
with a etone for his pillow and. the
canopy of heaven for a covering. It
wus under such circumstances that the
Lord gave him the wonderful vision at
Itethol. Many tlmos the rough experi
ences and severe trials of life help us
on toward God. Luxury aud heavenly
visions do not usually go together.

'"Why should you use only one eye

! 1. Ho saw a bidder reaching from
urth to heaven (v. 12).
i This suggests a means of communl
! cation between earth aud heaven, be
tween man and God. It showed Jacob I
that In spite of his awful sin there
was a way to heaven for him. Jesus 1
Christ Is the ladder connecting earth :
and heaven for us (John 1:51; 14:0; I
Hebrews 10:10, 20). In the Incarnn-i
tlon Jesus Christ descended to earth's '
lowest depth nnd made a way upon
which human feet might climb to
heaven. Fortunate nre they who In
the times of earth's trials discern this
ladder I
2. He saw angels of God upon the
ladder (v. 12).
They were ascending and descending
upon this ladder. These angels were
the divine helpers to render needed as
sistance along life's way. Though un
seen, God's angels guldo and protect
us on our earthly pilgrimage. They
ascend unto the Father with our needs,
nnd descend unto us with God's reply.
Christ Is a real mnn, and so can Iden
tify himself with us; ho Is the very
God, really divine, and so Is able to lift
us to God and secure our reconcilia
tion with him.
, 3. He saw the Lord standing above
j the ladder (vv. 13-17).
J To show Jacob that the ladder did
i not merely reach Into space, the per-
1 sonnl God appeared nnd tnlked with
htm. His message Is filled with Infi
nite grace. (1) He declared the God
of Abraham and Isaac (v. 13),
thus assuring Jacb that the same
hand that guided his fathers was over
him. (2) He renewed the covenant as
to the land (v. 13). Though Jacob win
; now fleeing from the hind, yet the
covenant would not fall, for Jacob nnd
Ids seed should possess It. (3) As
sured him of a numerous seed (v. 14).
They would sprend abroad to the
north, nnd south, and enst, nnd west.

dering Jacob (v. 15). Though he had
i sinned and wns reaping what he had
sown, yet God wns with him.
III. Jacob's Vow (vv. 18-2:1).
God's gracious visitation provoked
Jacob to make a vow. Each sight of
God should cause us to renew our ob
ligation to him. His vow included three
things: (1) Dedication of himself to
God (v. 12). This Is the first thing to
do. Our gifts are an abomination while
the life Is withheld from God. (2) Wor
ship established (vv. 18, 1!)). "This
stone shall be God's house." Worship
always follows dedication of one's self
to God. There Is personal communion
between God and those who worship
him. (3) Consecration of his sub
stance, of his possessions (v. 22).
Those who have fellowship with Ged
recognize God's claim upon their pos
sessions. God's grace should constrain
us to give of our substance to him.
