LESSON • January 14 JESUS BEGINS.HIS MINISTRY Matthew '3 :13.,--4:11. Golden Text•—Thou shalt wor ship the Lord thy God, and him only shah thou serve. Matthew 4:1Q, John the Baptist had been, for sometime preaching in the wilder- ness calling upon the people to re- pent and: be baptized. Here it was that, -Jesus emerged from his prie tate life to commence his public ministry. John, reGognizipg Jesus as the Son of God, hesitated in baptizing him. However, Jesus said "Suffer it to be so now for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteous- ness." • Coming up out of the water fol lowing his baptism, .the heavens opened unto Jesus, and the Holy Spirit descended upon • him in the form.of a -dove. For several hund- red years no prophet front God had visited Israel, but here God spoke in approval of Jesus as His son, in whom He -was welt ,pleased. • First Temptation • After being filled with the spirit Jesus was led out into the wilder - Imes' to. be tempted ' of the devil. The devil was not a myth as some. would have us imagine,' but a per- sonal being, seeking to overcome the Son of God. Jesus was Inman in body, and' following forty days ,.of fasting we can understand how the bodily resistance would be low- ered, and the temptation to yield to the desires of the flesh multi- plied. Satan was aware of his con- dition, and he .first sought 1o, win -Jesus by, urging him' to use .his power as the Son of Gado to turn the stones into bread. With scrip- ture Jesus gave him no room for argument. "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proccedeth out of the mouth of God." Satan continued in his tempta- tion of the Lord' Jesus, .and took him up to, the temple. where from a high position he urged the Say- ' -lour to cast himself down to test his power as Lord. The .devil as he rotten does used scripture. "He shall give his angels- charge con- cerning thee: end' in. their hands • they shall bear thee up, lest at any ,time thou dash thy foot against a - stone,' ,Agem • the Lord- replies with scripture, "It is written thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.': Third Temptation Even after two rebukes the devil tempted the Lord a third time, of- fering him the glories of this world if he would but fall down and worship him. Many have sold their souls for a little of this world's glory but Jesus had his eyes on the task he came into the world to do; to save the people from their sins. He commands satan to get hence "For it is written thou shalt .wor- ship the Lord thy God and him only shalt thou serve." After his 'third victory over sa- tan, we are told that angels carne and ministered unto' him. It is not stated in What way they minister- , ed, but probably with food and comfort. May we profit by this record of our Lord's encounter with the devil, and be prepared fo fight hint with the Sword of the Spirit (GtTs Word) when he seeks to tempt us. For thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and hint only shalt thou_ serve. • Slang Is Taking Place Of English A correspondent writes in to em- phasize that the word is spelled Y-E-S—not "Yeah", or "Yah", or:, "Yee,' or "Sure", or "You bet", -or "Uh-Huh.". The point is well -taken. . Slang' and corruption •are rapidly taking the place of English as we used to. know it. The comics and 'not Web- ster or. the New Oxford Dictionary, keret arc becoming our nut y. We` say "nuttin" and "sompin". We feel "good", when we mean "well", and we often declare we "are do- ing good", when we feel no charit- able sentiments whatever. We run into Yiddish when we answer a question by saying. "You telling nae?" and into Polish when we an- swer "S'detso?" What about a campaign` to re- store the well of English undefiled.. to its former purity?'

One woinan asked for Teddy Banks, another—having heard that the fine looking 'strang- er was also a cousin of Landon's— asked to have Mark brought to her house. "He's so interesting," she said; "se unusual!" .Landon was in a white fury when he finally got Mark at the door of the, smoking room. It vers beyond the 'conservatory and the departing guests had drifted out of it. The room was empty save for the dis- solving clouca of cigarette smoke. Landon beckoned to Mark. "A word with you!" he said lsbersely, closing the door; Ile was pale with rage. Mark stood easily, facing him; there was. a splendid vigor about him that Landon. had not seen in his poor, rough and ready suit of clothes. It could not be said that clothes made the man, but the man 'shone radiantly through the clothes, there was something about hint— in Allis..house-broken, scented at- mosphere—splendidly, heathenish- ly alive. He smiled at ' Archie's wrath. * * * "You've lost," he said casually; "I'in asked ,ate _ dine." "I know it," replied Landon fiercely, "but you won't -you'll go home!" "Better take your defeat more calmly," counselled Mertz; "you're not a good sport." Landon gasped with anger. "I've watched you," he said thickly; "you've trespassed here—you've dared too • much. Now, you'll get out!" Mark's eyes met his mockingly; for a moment their glances ground on each other like crossing steels, then he laughed. "Listen—I've won anti I'll stay the dinner was the acid test, you know. Do you think they'd lik you for trying to cheat them? I you drive me out, I'll tell tliem what you did—we'll go together."

Svfark threw him aside like a helpless puppy; then he slapped the money, five hundred dollars, down on the' table. "Take it, there's the price; it's infamous, unthinkable; I repud- iate it!

Landon 'knew it; lie reeled ain- slcadily on his feet; be sew stars, Isis face was ghastly. He struck marked attention, studied him, too, Landon thought, as if he searched his memory for that face, As for Pam, she sat ' next to Mark and loolced up at aria' with wide, .fascinated eyes. Ile` was '•s° different," that was what all the'' women thought. Mrs. Lynn, who, liked a new lion first at her table, smiled across at Archie Landon, Her look said plainly: "Thank you; he's delightful!" And Archie gnaw- ed again upon the bone of his wrath: How to get him out -that was the question. Mark, knowing it, threw him, once in a,_ while, a dare -devil loolc But Mark himself was not ashappy as he looked.- The ooked:The atmosphere of the; plate was like • a ` hot -house, fragrant and warm—the glow of shaded lights- the soft voices of the women. - Abruptly arose the; vision of prison fare -fifteen years of it. Thedare- deviltry that had made', him fling defiance at. Landon melted in Pane's shining glance. What right had be, an ex -convict, to sit be- side her, to touch her hand, to look into her eyes? A kind of fever seized him; once or twice it was in his mind to rise and shout the truth at them. ,Then Burleson held him from it—one of the men who had helped send him to prison; who, no doubt, like Fosdick, be- lieved him guilty. Covertly, now he studied •hilar; a gray face, a worn old Wean, grown mightily' prosper- ous, but not happy; lee had. lost his wife and three sons; riches alone weighed upon hint. Did he ever think of the boy he had help- ed send. to . prison? It gave Mark a kind, of irhpish satisfaction to sit at his table, only ,he wanted to shout his name at him—to defy him. Then Mrs.' Lynn addressed him, smilingly. "Mr. I3yram, I want to ask you about Stella Byram's wedding. Were you there by any chance?" (To Be Continued) "What a Christmas Present"! His Wife "Holy Smokes!" yelled Sgt. Jo- seph Waldt, "What a Christmas present" The "present" was his wife from Baltimore, Md.,- She walked into his hospital •room and it was the first time he had seen her in three years. Mrs. Waldt was a gift from a grupp of Tulsa people who had earned Joe's -story, The sergeant had been wounded in 'France and sent to an. Oklahoma Army hospie tal to convalesce. His wife missed hint in -New York and she• was a working woman of modest means so she copldn't follow him to Okla- homa.

I'll stay," said he with sudden passion, his eyes flashing their flame at Landon, "I'll stay—and you can't put me out—the wager's wont" * * * Mark Grant kept hie word. He stayed. Inn the first flush and, ex- ultation of his love for Pana he would have walked through fire to stay. But he !tad no such or--- . deal; Landon had felt his fingers on his shoulder; the cinch of them had left the young man's muscles sore. He wanted no more of that. He gnawed his rage in silence.' He saw that he ' was trapped. If he told the truth to get Grant out, he would -go but himself in disgrace. Strange to say, he had not thought of that, he had it to digest while he watched Mark's triumph at the dinner. This strange 'Fellow; this heathen with iron fists, whoever he was, had found his tongue;; he talked well. Not of travel and ad- ventures, Landon noticed, but of. life.

What about. those housedresses and aprons, those school dresses for theekiddies, and the light -weight underwear that maybe we didn't have time to mend before it was put away. It is a great time too, for housecleaning drawers, cupboards and closets, isn't it? And of course, some of you will do just as I do—put things away so carefully you never find them again! And then there are letters to write; and maybe there are friends we have neglected . . . the new year is a grand time to check up on our sins of omission -and per- haps clear up a few misunderstand- ings.
