left Ahab astounded and went many
miles away; the rest of that chaP-

his exp•eriente. God miraculously
took cure of His prophet during the
years of drought and famine.
Our lesson chapter opens with
God's - word to Elijah in the third
year of the drought; "Go show thy -
„lei( unto 4hab, and I will send rain
upon the earth.”
It was a dramatic meeting. Sa-
maria 'was suffering unspeanably
from the famine. King and podpla
were desperate. The King had been
searching not only thrOughout all
Israel, but throughout other nations
and kingdoms to find this strange
3nan; and his first word to the pro-
phet was the angry exclamation,
"Art thou he that troubleth Mittel?"
Elijah's challenge was that, in the

Then Elijah proposed the test that

deities were at stake: God and Baal.
Elijah's challenge was that, in the

said, "It is well spoken."

There is a tenderness in the little
comedian for the children of the
nations. They were his first admir-
ers and well he knows it. It was
there response that led him on to
fame and fortune. And always in
the making of comedy, he considers
them.
And yet in his role of the hardluck
eourdough, Chaplin presents the bi-
ography of a life with complete uns
deretanding and sympathy. And
while thii pathos and sufferings of
the charaders are converted into
laughter, there is linked to the pie-
ture it ehnin of circumstantial trag-
edy that is relieved by the great com-
edian's ribald mastery of pantom-
ime and comedy.
