"Now Vy Vas Dat"
The story is told of a Pennsylvania
Dutchman who was not very learned
but who was not ashamed of his re-
ligion.
In leis, neighborhood pias a skeptic
who said very positively, "You know,
a person can't really believe anything
you can't explain."
One day one of the Dutchman's
friends came tohim and said, "I'd
like to. hear you put up au argument
to my skeptical friend. Will you talk
to him?"
"All right, if you think best," he
said with a twinkle in his eye.
"Have you any objections to neigh-
bors coming in?"
"No, shust as you tink beat."
So they had a meeting. The old
Geutlernan came in, put down his hat,
and was introduced to the skeptic.
He began suddenly by saying, "Vell
now, look here, I pleefs the Bible. Vat
you pleefs?"
"I don't believe anything I can't un-
derstand," he said loftily.
"Oh, I see, you must be von smart
man. 1 vas very glad to meet mit you.
I ask you some questions. The older
day I vas riding along the road and
met von dog, and that dog he had von
of his ears standing up thisway, and
the odder he stands down .so. Now
vy vas dat?"
"l: don't know," admitted his oppon-
ent.
pponent.
"Oh, then, you are not so smart after
all. I ask anodder question. While I
was riding along I saw Chon's clover
patch. The clover came up so nice,
and over dere vas his pigs and dere
comae out hair•on dere backs, and over
in very same clover patch eating
clover was his sheep and dere came
out wool. Now vy vas dat?"
Again his opponent had to answer,
"I don't know."
"Vell, you are not ,half so smart as
you tink Now I ask you one more
question. "Do you pleet dere is a
God?"
"No, I don't believe any such non-
sense,"
"Oh, yes," said the Dutchman. "I hear
about you long ago. By bible says,
"The fool said in his heart there is no
God,' but you bigger fool, you blab it
right out."

"I've got an idea," said Mamma

"What is that, can I help?" he asked,

INTam:tumor,I—The believers met
for thci • specifically Christian ser-
vices in each other's homes. They did
not, however, separate themselves
from Judaism. They took their part
in the synagogue services, In Jeru-
salem they went for public prayer to
the Temple. It was on their way to
the Temple service that the incident
of healing the cripple occurred which
led to the sermon which sounded the
key -note of the early •.postolic preach-
ing.
I, PETER'S PREACHING, Acts 3: 11-26.
After the Temple service, preaching
to the amazing crowd, Peter did not
capitalize the healing to win popular-
ity for himself. He gave all the credit
to Jesus. The preacher's loyalty was
matched by his courage. Boldly he
proclaimed that the one whom they
bad crucified as a criminal was the
promised Deliverer. The healing of
the beggar was an. example of his
power.
Peter then appealed to his hearers
to repent and thus win forgiveness
and have their part in Messiah's king-
dom. Messiah would remain in
heaven until the time prophesied for
"restitution" would arrive. Peter in-
terpreted Jesus in the light of tradi-
tional Jewish hopes. Christianity was
still bound to Judaism.
II. THE OUTCOME, Acts 4: 1-22.
(a) Antagonisms. The cure and the
preaching attracted the attention of
the ecclesiastical authorities. The rul-
ers were alarmed lest the people
should follow this new sect. The
priestly authorities, being Sadducees,
did not believe in a resurrection. They
were antagonized because the apostles
proclaimed the resurrection of Jesus.
Conventionally religious people, such
as they were, are certain to come in
conflict, at one time or another, with
Spirit -filled, and, therefore, fearless
preaching. The apostles were arrested
and lodged in jail for the night.

showed a striking increase in net re-

to brother Jews. Jesus was the fore-,
shadowed Messiah in whom they were
to find the realization of Jewish hopes.
His Messiahship was verified by his
suffering, resurrection and risen
power.
Paul, on the other hand, proclaimed
a universal gospel. ` He liberated early,
Christianity from its Judaistic frame-
work. He refused to trouble himself
about Jewish "signs" or ,Greek "wis-
dom." He "knew" only Christ cruci-
fied, the power of God; the wisdom of
God.

Sanhedrin the next morning Peter
proclaimed his message again. Loyal
to his Master, he again gave credit iv
Christ for all that had happened.
With magnificent boldness the man
who not so long ago had flinched be-
fore a girl now accused the high
priests of crucifying their Messiah.
It was Messiah's power that had heaI-
ed the cripple. Only through him could
salvation come to men.
Such preaching from an uneducated
layman astonished and indeed irritat-
ed the rulers. These Jesus -followers
were dangerous. Their popularity
with the people, however, made it un-
wise to molest them. Accordingly, the
Sanhedrin declared their preaching
illegal and let them go. But Peter and
John exclaimed, "Whether it be right
in the sight of God to hearken unto
you more than unto God, fudge ye. For
we cannot but speak the things which
we have seen and heard," The apos-
tolic preaching was characterized by
that boldness which "feared not the
face of any man."
III. THE CHURCH THAT WINS, Acts 4:
23.31.
Upon being released, Peter and
John reported to the others what had
happened. The believers gave them-
selves to prayer "with one accord"--
that is, with united eagerness. They
prayed intensely, passionately. In
similar case, many Christians might
decide that . a delegation to the San-
hedrin would be a better plan. These
believers gave themselves passionate-
ly to prayer. For what did they
pray? For safety in the threatening
future? No, they prayed for more of

Doctor Repudiates
Old Kissing Fallacy
Rugby, Eng.—Dr, Josiah Oldfield
thinks a pseudo -scientific ban on kiss,
Ing is a fallacy. "A kiss does not
create the scare -mongers' million mic-
robes which are said to be given with
a kiss," Dr. Oldfield told members of
the women's institutes meeting at Bir-
dington, near here, recently. -
"If Jack kisses Jill and transfers to
her a million microbes, he gets in re '
turn a million of hers, and from what
we know of evolution the probability
le that this. exchnnge.-ofi microbes i t'
beneficial."
The kiss was scientifically defined
as "the result of two sets of cellular
emotional vibrations which attract
each other and become harmoniously
merged into a rich chord by contact."
To keep its "precious standard" the
kiss should combine the three in-'gredients of affection, respect and pas-
sion, Dr, Oldfield said.
Dr. Oldfield is a prominent advocate
of a fruitarian diet. He was a founder
of the society for the abolition of caps-.
tal punishment.
Only the Best Win
The latest report of Canadian Na-
tional Egg Laying Contests (Bulle-
tin 139-N.S.) provides further con-
clusive proof that only the best pul-
lets in the best flocks of the Domin-
ion make the grade for registration,
and only about one in four of care-
fully bred and selected pullets qualify.
In the 1928-29 contest out of a total
of 4,370 birds entered only 1,202 fully
qualified for registration. Other 420
birds laid a sufficient number of eggs
but failed to qualify on account of,
egg size.
