PAUL CROSSES INTO EUROPH
Acts 15:36-17:15

seen the vision,' straightway we

Acts 16:10,
THE LESSON 1N ITS SETTING.
Time.-A.D. 50 and 51.
Place. -Paul sets out for his
second missionary journey from
Antioch in Syria. Cilicia is the
province located directly north
and west of Syria. Derbe and
Lystra were cities of Lycaonia, lo-
cated on the great highway 'lead-
ing to Antioch in Picidia. Phry-
gia was a province in the central
part of western Asia Minor. Tro-
as was a city of Mysia on the east-
ern side of„the Aegean Sea, op-
posite Macedonia. Macedonia was
the ancient name for the northern
part of .the Greek peninsula in
the northeastern part of which,
about ten miles from the coast,
was the city of Philippi. Thessa-
lonica was also in northern Greeco
on the Gulf of Salonika; Beroea
was forty miles ,inland from Tes-
salonica; Athens was in the sou-,
thern part of Greece.
36. And after some days Paul
said unto Barnabas, Let us return
now anis visit the brethren in ev-
ery city wherein we proclaimed
the word of the Lord, and see how
they fare. Paul's heart was burn-
ing with the desire to visit again
the churches which the Lord en-
abled him to plant in that vast
Gentile territory beginning at Sy-
ria and extending, north and west
into the thickly populated area of
.Asia Minor.
It was the parental longing to
:see his spiritual children which
was drawing him; but God had
far more extensive designs, which
opened up before him• as he went
forward.
A Companion and Helper
A new person enters upon the
staff of apostolic missionary acti-
vities, namely, Timothy, who was
the son of a Jewish -Christian mo-
ther. The mother's name was Eu-
nice (2 Tim. 1:5), and the grand-
mother's Lois. Timothy, we find,
was St. Paul's messenger to that
church, and he is joined with that
apostle in the greeting of Second
Corinthians.
As soon as Paul saw into what
kind of young Christian Timothy
had grown, his heart went out to
him, and he knew he had found
a companion and helper for life.
4. And as. they went on their
way through the cities, they de-
livered them the decrees to keep
which had been ordained of the
apostles and elders that were at
Jerusalem. 5. So the churches
were strengthened in the faith, and
increased. in number daily.
Christianity in Europe
6. And they went through the
region of Phrygia and Galatia,
having been'forbidden of the Holy
Spirit to speak the word in Asia;
7. and when they were come over
against Mysia, they assayed to go
into Bithynia; and the Spirit of
Jesus suffered them not; 8. and
passing by Mysia, they came down
to Treas.
9. And a vision appeared to
Paul in the night: There was a
man of • Macedonia standing, be-
seeching him, and saying, Come
over into Macedonia and help us.
The man stood for more than his
own nation. It was the cry of the
Elropean worldfi the expression of
of the deep unrest felt at this time
by all hearts that had risen above
gross pleasures and the babel of an
immortal heathenism, •Phis is in
many respects the most important
paragraph in the book of Acts.
10. And when he had esen the
vi,:on straightway we seugbt to
go feet!: into Macod:I tin conclud-
ing that od had ca lee w to
pre: • is the gospel un i them. 1.1.
Setting sail therefore from Troas,
we made a straight course to Sa-
mothrace, and the day following
to Neapolis. When these four
men went down to the quay of
Troas to look for •a vessel, hew
little the world thought, how little
they themselves knew, what :his-
tory they were making! Probably
in Paul's mind the passage to 'Eu-
rope was but one of many"• jouf-
neys.. Yet•it was one of the turn-
ing -points of history, the. challenge
of Christianity to Westet;n civili-
zation to aeeept•.tbe rule of Christ.
12, And from thence to' Philippi,
which is a city of Macedonia, the
first of the district, a Roman col-
ony: and we were in this city tar-
eying certain days. 13. And on
thesabbath day we went forth
without the gate by a river side,
where we supposed there was a
place of prayer; and we sat down,
and spake tanto the women that
were come together. 14. And a
certain woman named Lydia, a
seller of purple, of the city of
Thyatira, one that worshipped
Gad, heard usl whose heart the
Lord opened to give heed unto the
things which Were spoken by Paul,

Urges Return
To Simplicity
Primitive Style Of Living
Would Benefit Victims Of
Today's Rush And Worry -
Cut Down On Insanity.
We are living in a "civilized
madhouse" which is sending as
many people to mental institutions
as it is graduating from college,
says Dr. Jay B. Nash, of New York
University.
Men and women are "going to
pieces" in increasing numbers, he
asserted, because their, bodies have
been catapulted 1,000,000 years
ahead of their nervous systems
and because of the social and
economic uncertainties of the mod-
ern age.
"One can imagine the average
person saying, 'My job is insecure,
I'm back in my rent. Susie has in-
fected adenoids, Johnny needs
glasses. I'm not saving anything
for old age or sickness. The boss
is constantly after me to speed up
.... but I must not worry; I must
be 'calm; relax, recreate'." '
J5. And when she was baptized.
and her household, she besought
us, saying, If ye have judged me
to be faithful to the Lord, come
into my house, and abide there
And she constrained us.
The First Convert
Thus the first convert in Eu-
rope was a woman, and the first
Christian service held on Euro-
pean soil brought forth definite
results in immediate conversions.
The change which passed upon Ly-
dia prefigured what woman in Eu-
rope was to become under the in-
fluence of Christianity.
To Cover Royal Crossing
R. K. Carnegie, superintendent f
the Canadian Press' Ottawa bur-
eau, will be the only newspaper-
man from Canada aboard H.M.S.
Repulse, which will bring the King
and Queen to Canada in May. Mr.
Carnegie .hes just sailed for Lon-
don to join the royal party.
"Few men kill themselves from;
overwork . . . Over -worry, over -
rush, over -drink, over -eat, under -
sleep are the killers... .
"The antidote can be supplied
only by resorting, at least to a de-
gree, the simplicity of primitive
living. This . will mean build-
ing new cities where men may live
more quietly and happily.....
"It will mean some plan of social
security so as to remove the night-
mare of sickness,, unemployment
and old -age insecurity".

EV ANNE A81-11 EY
Q,-Ilow can I treat the sew, -
'lig machine which has seen years
of hard service and seems ready
to be discarded?
A. -Take off the head and -boil
t for about an hour in strong
suds. This will clean it of all the

't, replace it, oil it thoroughly,
and see if it does net show a hun-
dred per cent. improvement.
Q, -flow can I clean mica in the
door of the kitchen range?
A. -The mica can be easily
cleaned by rubbing it with a soft
flannel cloth, dipped in equal
parts of vinegar and cold water.
Q. -How can I prepare a 'good
watercress salad?
A. -Serve the watercress with
French dressing, made tart with
lemon, and sprinkled with Roque-
fort cheese.
Q. -How can I dry my hair
more quickly after washing?
A. -Try this method; Light the
oven, turn the gas low, lower the
oven door, and then place the el-
ectric fan on the lowered door.
The warmed air will quickly dry
the hair.
, ' Q. -How can I keep water warm
when there is no hot water heater
in the house?
A. -Try keeping the tea kettle
on the pilot light of the gas range
at all times when not in active
use. It will keep the water warm,
and the job of boiling it will not
be a lengthy one.
Fred Waller, 18, a London
school boy, has found how to be
honored in his own country. He
and a schoolmate pretended to be
French tourists in London and
were "never before treated with
so much respect."

MORE TO COME
THE ROYAL VISIT
Two events of the utmost signi-
ficance will play a big role on the
radio networks of the North Am-
erican continent during the Con-

of course, is the visit of Their Ma-
jesties, the King and Queen.
CBC will begin a broadcast ac-
count of the Royal visit while
Their Majesties are actually en-
tering Canadian waters aboard H.
M.S. "Repulse." Microphones will
foItow the Royal party step by
step during the tour so. that a
continuous sound picture of one
of the greatest events in modern
times shall reach every Canadian
home from coast to coast.
The climax of the trip will be
reached on May 24, in Winnipeg,
where radio homage will be ren-
dered the King from British sub-
jects all over the earth to be fol-
lowed immediately by the King's
reply. During the four days the
Royal party is on United States
soil, the American 'networks will
take over the task of the CBC.'

Growing chickens need some
foam of vitamin A to make satin-
favtosy growth. Birds allowed to
range about•the farm during the
growing season usually pick up
auificient quantities of green'feedp
but birde' confined should have
some feed that is rich in vitamin
A. Alfalfa -leaf meal is ere 'el
the most economical sources
vitamin A, when all feeds must Tae
purchased ,and m.ay serve as the.
sole source of this vitamin.
