The trip was a successful one and all returned home safely on Thursday noon, all five cars atop the sleighs, and are now under cover waiting for more springlike wccither and better roads.

Golden Text: No servant can serve two masters; for. cither he will hate the one, and love the other: or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Seven great incidents or teachings fill our lesson chapter this week. “He went throughout every city and vil­ lage, preaching and showing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God.” We do not always remember what a vast, nation-wide ministry the Lord Jesus had in the three brief years of His public life. He left no part of the land of Israel unreached. And every­ where He went He brought good news. ' t Two parables are here—of the sow­ er and of the candle. That of the sower tells of four places and results of sowing—wayside, rock, thorns and good ground. There was no harvest from the first three; from the last, there was “fruit an hundredfold." The seed sown, the.Lord explained, is the Word of God, and He explained the different failures and the one success. There is a solemn challenge in this parable to all of us, to decide for our­ selves what kind of ground we shall be when God’s word is sown in our hearts.’ The Lord shows that there is a higher and more eternal relationship than that of flesh and blood, or the relationship within cious as they are. her sons, who were ers, sent word to could not reach Him because of the crowds, that they desired to see Him. Did He di:op everything and go to them? He sent this answer: “My mo­ ther and my brethren are those which hear the word of God, and do it.” We know, front other passages of Scrip­ ture, that there was a time when the Lord’s own family did not believe in Hifh, but the time came later when they did/and rejoiced to worship Him as Saviour. Two miracles in this chapter pre­ cede and follow the lesson incident. One showed the Lord’s sovereign control of the world of nature, of which He is the Creator. A sudden, dangerous storm came down upon the boat in which the Lord arid His dis­ ciples were crossing the lake, Those Galileo storms can be tempests in­ deed, wrecking boats and taking lives, and on this night the boat was filling with water. And the t,ord had fallen asleep from physical fatigue! The dis­ ciples awoke Him in terror, "Master, the family, pre- His mother and the Lord’s broth- Him, when they smiled at reporters and exclaimed of the corner of his mouth at press table “Can I take it!” out the explana- shallow, have ac- it away. Master, we perish.” The miracle followed, as the Lord “arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the wa,ter; and they ceased, and there was a calm.” There can be no natural or .psychological tion of this event, although ignorant, unbelieving minds tually attempted to explain It was sheer, stupendous miracle, that only God could work. o The lesson incident is a dramatic one. On the eastern side of the Sea of Galilee was the country of the Ga­ darenes. As the Lord went there in His evangelizing tour He was met by “a certain man, which had devils long time, and wore no clothes, nei­ ther abode in any house, but in the tombs.” Here was a demon-possessed man. So degraded and like a beast was he that “he was kept bound with chains and in fetters, and. he brake the bands and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.” Men were afraid of him, and well they might be. Think of such a m&n confronting the quiet, sinless, yet omnipotent Son of God, and confronted by Him! “When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before Him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech Thee, torment me not.” This was not the man speak­ ing—it was . the evil spirit that had taken possession of his body and voice. Repeatedly .evil spirits recog­ nized, who Christ was, even when men did not recognize Him. The unseen spirit world knows Christ; and evil spirits, knowing Him, trembled. Matthew’s account tells us that the demons in the Gadarene cried out: “Art Thou cohie hither to torment us before the time?” (Matt. 8:29). And when the Lord asked, “What is thy name?" the answer came: Legion: because many devils were entered in­ to him.” The demons “besought Him that He would not command them to go out into the deep,”—that is, into “the bottomless pit” of which we read in Revelation 20:1. They asked His per­ mission to enter into a herd of swine feeding on the mountain near by. “And He suffered thetn." It is a strange story, but We must remember that we are reading of a strange, sinister, supernatural event. The demons left the man, cast out by Christ, “and entered into the swine, and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.” The news of what had happened spread like wild fire, and Crowds Came from the city to see. They found the former violent, bestial, demon-pos­ sessed man “sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind.” Truly, here was a parable in fact, showing wliat the Lord Jesus Christ can do with sinful men, Untold mil* can do with sinful men, Untold mul­ titudes of men from that day to this m the bondage of sin have been set free by the Lord Jesus Christ and have been glad to sit at His feet, clothed and in their right mind. Now comes the strange, unbeliev- ablue sequel. The people of Gadara realized that they had lost a herd of swine, What did it matter that a. man had been delivered from awful bond­ age and misery, a soul saved? Noth­ ing at all, in contrast with the loss of their pigsl So “the whole multi­ tude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought Him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear; and He went up into the ship, and returned back again.” > To the saved and delivered man, who wanted to stay with the Lord Jesus, came the divine commission: “Return to thine own house, and show how great things God hath done unto thee.” The man obeyed, and became an evangelist himself. Which do we want today: our sessions, our selfish interests, swine or the 'Saviour? Rabbits Attacked Apple Trees A number of young apple planted out last spring by Mr. Con. Eckart have been completely destroy-1 ed by rabbits, which have eaten all the branches and even the bark. The rabbits are becoming a plague even jn town on account of the deep snow covering the fields.—Huron Expos­ itor Roof Crashes in Under Weight of Snow- An unusually heavy load of snow was responsible for extensive damage to the barn owned by Mr. Wm. Mc­ Kenzie, which adjoins the Presbyter­ ian Church. Without warning, part of the sidewall of the barn crashed out and down went the roof and part of the end of the barn which tum­ bled inward.—Lucknow Sentinel. “Calumny is only the noise madmen.”—Diogenes. of DELICIOUS SOUPS FOR COLD DAYS Split Pea Soup cup ,dried split peas pint milk tablespoons butter desired.
