How many and varied wore the exI'erienees of Jesus' little band dur- ing those last forty days—the shame and humiliation of the Cross, the he•;lee1+': mess and despair of the grave, the glory and the hope of the 1 aa] 1•ee11011, t110 S e etile 8 of renew- ed communion -'and then the cloud that Incl'Gvd 111n from them.

Through all the sadness of the parting came the joy of the promise, th, corsci0tts- ne.ss that the ascended Jesus was to means more, infinitely more to them than the .Jeeus with whom they had walked and talked face to fare. We know that the (11soples many many timos did not understand their Mauer. They walked wtta Iiim, Th.'y talked With Him. They shared His meals, But tT.l thoy understand .Jesus? Would they not have called down Tiro from heaven upon their; opponents? Did they not argue as f to who among them would hold those 1 favord seats on His right hand and on His left'? Did their hearts not; er.:.ve or all the outer trappings of glory? Were their minds not ce11-, terc'd rather on the mansions than on the Father's house? Did they not wish to use Toren to ss :•e flim, who was King of Kings and Lord of Lords? When all Trope of an earth- ly kingdom failed, when the hosan- nas had become hisses and friends had turned .foes, when He was de- spised and rejected of neon, did they not say in word or in deed; "We know Him not," Even after the joy of the resurrection and in .the sweet fellowship of those last talks, what did they ask, "Lord,. wilt tnou esta- blish the kingdom in Israel?" Had they yet caught the vision of those 011101' 8)110(71) for whom Jesus prayed? Did the hearts yearn .for those stern - visaged Romans or those dark -faced African? Or had the thought of the vast ;multitude of teething hum- anity that tlu'onged' the edges of civilization entered their con,cdol.c- es? No, as Jesus was about to leave them, their last qu'•Stlon was, "Lord, wilt thou at this time, e •tabl!ah the kinglnnn in Israel?"

To the lame they said, "Silver anti „veld have I none, hut snail as I have give I unto thee." To the loaders of the church they said boldly, "Neither is there salvation in any other name given under heaven given among leen, whcreny we may be saved." "Him hath God ex1111(1 with His right hand to be a Peine, anti a Saviour, for to give repent- ance to Israel, and forgiveness of sin's," How eloquently they pleaded for the Gentiles, "And God, which irllowetla the hearts, bare them wit- 110ss, giving 1110111 the 7:oly Spirit, even as He did unto us, and put 110 difference between us and thein, pur- ifying their hearts by faith." To his brethren who also loved Christ, -Pet- er wrote, "If so be ye have tasted that tho Lord is gracious,"—"tanto you therefore, which believe, He is precious." "Wherefore ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place until the day dawn and the day star arise 111 your hearts." As those once craven disciples stood before priest and prince, as they went about telling of ( Jesus and His love, as they sang in 1 prison, even as one earned his (1(811y bread at the ]tumble task of tent - making, Jesus came and walked bo- side them, becoming their Rock, their Shield, their High Tower, the bright and morning Star, the Glory that 11- Ilumined the darkest -•uy before I them. Among the sayings of Jesus, these words are said to be found, "]raise the stone and thou shalt find.

ETHEL Mrs. George Ilatcnlan was the re- cipient of a pleasant surprise when she received a crate of oranges from her niece, Mrs. H. Willie, of Srandenn- ton, Fla, Mrs. Willis' mother, Mrs. John Johnston, is a sister of Mrs. Bateman. The following clipping ropers to •t nephew of Mrs. George Bateman, of Ethel, and Mrs. R. Mitchell, of Br,ts- sels:—.It may seem a bit strange to- morrow. Fos three years Pat John- ston has .been mayor -commissioner of ilissimmee. Tomorrow it will be irlayor-Commissioner Somebody Else. "Pat," as everybody refers to ]nim, except when they say "Good, morning Judge," was elected to office in a spirited campaign three ,years ago, and in the ensuing meeting of the city (ommi8180110rs he was chosen as the mayor-commisisoner. His cam reign was made upon one issue only. That issue was "Lake front improve- ment." The difference between the weed -infested shore of Lance Toho- pekalig'a of three years ago, and the park of today :bears eloquent testi- mony as to his efforts to redeem his campaign pledgees. Pat himself gives Nil credit to his associates, city em- ployees and citizenry in general for their co-operation • and assistance in bringing about this transformation Rut his was the guiding hanid. About the time he took office, this particular office, that is, for it is difficult to re- member when he didn't have some of - !ion at the hands or ballots, of his fellow citizens—the city acquired the holes and the swamp between the railroad and the lapse. There also was an historic $29,000 in "the bulk head fused." However, the leg nat- ure had already passed an enabling act to allow Itissimmee voters to di- vert this "bulk head fund" to city streets and the sentiment lean high for so doing State and govern ment engineers said Kissimmee could not pump the Lake Tohopekaliga sand and make the fill with the dredge. But Pat Johnston had been elected on a lake front improvement program unci ho wanted it improved. The holes have been filled, tho mosquito -breed- ing pools are no more, there is a beautiful park with sidewalks, sr•teets and whiteway lainsts, a band -shell, a start toward public buildings and a zoo, and there is still some of the $29,000 bulk dead fund unexpended. Furthermore the sand was pumped and the fill mad,, at the lowest cost of any dredging project in the stag, And there have been eight miles of paving during the same time ths lance front improvement was 1n process. Sanitary sewers have been added un til almost all of Kissimmmce is now served by them. Adeguaate..storm sewers have been installed, a new light plant built, with a new Diesel engines in operation. Kissunimee has a band shell of which any city may be proud. There have been things clone in Mr. Johnston's adminis- tration. As judge of the city court, Pat has also left his imprint. Liquor law violators can testify to this, And the Mayor-Comamissioner 11ac1 no mercy of traffic law violators. He slid not consider "just a traffic viola- tion" es a negligible offense, for it meant safety to the kiddies and to the Post of the 900918 of Kissimmee, Mr. 301mston hadn't u111011 to say when a representative of The Gazette asked hien if he had a fare -well mess- age as mayor -commissioner. "I haven't anything to say," said he: "We may not have accomplished very wince that was spectacular. The on- ly thing I claim credit for is lance trent improvement. i Pledged lake 1;7:_see s WEDNESDAY, MAY 18, 1927. afn " \ 7 n er,f'-"..moi' q{�- �a•`"^,a cry a'•rHE Ford National P^'+1 F" !!'`t erahg ,r ,, you to buy a caw '-., fi; :yeas and monthly pa.,yi,1.1.en.t `c1tiy1'✓,ll)..crr gig "r,.:a....);.las r Astored downpaT,'ancnt ;v1,?..S you a sets''"y' of air/ Mrs:od:el you select 'The b91111[.ce is paid, O. in star:lard. monthly pa}'i• ierrtts F'i' s ^I>. 3o not t' 12V rogn.rdless of tom::?, license., ;Sr eishlt •,end.
