Sunday School Lesson UZZ1AH: A KING WHO FORGOT GOD -2 Chron. 26:3-5, 16-21 Golden Text.—Every one that exalteth himself shall be humbled; but he that humbleth himself shall he e:ralted. Luke 18:14. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. .— Uzziah ascended the throne in 806 B.C. The time when the events in this chapter took place cannot be determined with absolute accuracy; but inasmuch as Uzziah died in '755 E.C., his be- ing stricken with leprosy is placed generally about 768 B.C. Place.—Jerusalem. 3-4. Sixteen years old was Uz- ziah when he began to reign; and he reigned fifty and two years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jechiliah, of Jerusalem. And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that his father Auiaziah had done. Uzziah was fortunate to have such a .wonderful• mother and fa- tiier. '' What a blessing for any young man to have a father who has so lived that the boy can do nothing finer than to walk through life in the path which his father had made• for him. A father by being honest and pure of heart,' upright in all of his . dealings, faithful ie the services of the, e church can certainly set ideal for his•soti and`help•him to' live in the way that will bring him the greatest peace and happiness -in life. 5. And he set himself to geek God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the vision of God: and as long as he sought Je- hovah, God made him to prosper. Uzziah prospered indeed. He bought the Philistines into real subjection. He strengthened the defenses. ca. Jerusalem by building towers at its three weakest points. He organized, equipped, and dis- ciplined the military force of the country on a new plan. The whole •country prospered under his rule. 16-17-18. But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly, and he tres- passed against Jehovah his God. For he went into the temple of Je- hovah to burn inccnese upon the altar of incense. And Azariah the priest went in after him, and with hint fourscore priests of Jehovah, that were valiant men: and they withstood Uzziah the king. and said unto him It pertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto Jehovah, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are con- secrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thine honor from Jehovah God. lit -20. Tien Uzziah was wroth; and hehad a censer in his hand to burn incense; and while he was wroth with the priests, the lepro- sy brake forth in his forehead be- fore the' priests in the house of ,Jehovah, beside the altar of in-,oense. And Azariah the chief priest, and all the priests, looked upon him and behold, he was lep- rous in his forehead, and they thrust him out quickly from thence; yea, himself, basted also to go out, because Jehovah had smitten him. Thus for his sin he was punish- ed with the terrible visitation of Leprosy. This severe penalty d:s- ahled and disqualified a man for all the clays and enjoyments of life. I -lis sin was not a mere ques- tion between king and priest; that would have been small enough. It was a question wheth- er God should continue to rule, through his choselt officers, over the nation, or whether the king should set aside the divinely given law, and practically make himself supreme. To assume a preroga- tive which God had strictly con- fined to the priestly order, was a ptep that was revolutionary itl,its character and overturned the moat sacred traditions. Too much sue- : 0: -It; had spoiled Uzziah and en- dowed him with the moral evil of human arrogance. 21. And Uzziah the king was -a leper unto the day of his death, and dwelt in a separate house, be- ing a leper; for he was cut off from the house of Jehovah: and Jobham his son was over the king's house, judging the people of the land. It was impossible for a' leper to discharge the kingly office, and the regency was consequently con- ferred upon the king's eldest son, Jotham, who exercised the royal functions while his father suffered a living death. Uzziah must have repented before he died because he certainly left behind him the character of a good rather than a wicked king. Your Eyes Require Care Avoid Irritation and Infection By Exercising Precaution In the daily routine of life, it is important to try to remember to wash one's hands after touching banisters, door knobs, push plates, etc., to avoid carrying infection to the eyes. Even shaking hands transmits germs from one person to the other. Rubbing the eyes after using .a handkerchief to blow one's nose Is a possible and probable source of infection. Danger of infection lurks in the swimming pools if the eyes are opened under water and bath tow- els at public pools, beaches and the Summer resorts are another com- mon source of infection. Do not dry your eyes at all under these condi When 'maiming try to prevent dust and water from being blown or splashed its the eyes. Trying on other people's glasses and goggles can transmit lid infectious and even conjunctival inflammation. • The allergic inflammations from foods eaten and from external irri- tants such as pollen from trees, plants, flowers or talcum and face powders and dandruff from pets can be guarded against if they seem to cause an irritation. Tissue towels and paper handkerchiefs can cause the sensitive person to have inflammation of the eyelids or eye- balls. The pupil of the eye is so-called from the Latin word pupilla, mean- ing little doll, because you can see a small miniature of yourself when you look in another's eyes.

A11 sorts of strange and unlikely materials go to tho'.. making of them. A plain black dress can be el' en whatever character you Please . by changing the belt. Do you wish the general effect to be "plain but good"? Then wear. a narrow white satin belt embroid- ered in black silk with your Chris Ilan name, and a single string of. pearls round your neck. Make These Yourself Do you wear something a little bizarre and unusual? Then wear a wide belt in thick oatmeal linen, faced with black felt, and trimmed with flat scarlet beads and little, golden bells. • If you have a discarded natural coral necklace, sew the coral round. a white suede .belt, scatter gold beads in between and wear a gold and coral necklace to complete the effect. A narrow black crepe de chine, belt embroidered in gold thread and edged with gold fringe gives a very. sumptuous look to your black frock, • and a heavy gold necklace will add:, the final touch of chic. - Are You Sure Your "ace Is Clean? Normal Care For Normal Skin —Don't Powder Over Dirt Much has been written about the beauty for people with greasy skins, dray skins, sensitive skins and so on. It is time that something was said on the subject of the nor- mal skin. After all, there are many fortunate people who have nothing very couch wrong with their com- plexions and it is ouly right and natural that they should want to know how to keep them in that happy condition. It is, unfortunately, all too true that it a perfectly good, normal akin is left to look after itself, it stands a very good chance of losing its normality, of developing open pores, blackheads, etc, Therefore beauty culture for the normal cont plexion must be of a protective nat- ure. What is this protective treat- ment? We11, it consists of three parts: cleansing, nourishing, and guarding against age. The first is easily the most important part, be- cause dirt is the greatest danger a good skin has to guard against. How many times do you wash your hands each day? Morning, midday, evening and last thing at night, don't you? Probably more often than that. And yet there are hun- dreds of people who just dab a lit- tle ittie extra powder on their faces • three or four times a day, and clean It only once. It is true that your hands are constantly in use, and are, therefore, in more direct con- tact ontact with dirty objects, but it is also true that the foundation cream you use on your face • makes It slightly sticky, so that the dirt in the atmosphere naturally clings to it. There you have Rule 1 for skin beauty. Cleanse your face every time you wash your hands. Your complexion will repay you a thous- and -fold for your trouble. Fill your aluminum saucepan with water and chop up a fair- sized stick of rhubarb, Put this in and boil for two or three min- utes. When you have done one saucepan with this mixture pour it into another, and so on, until you have brightened all of them, RADIO A N D NOTES 1 E W 5 By Ni, ` 1E ARCHER ...•.-..FYudy..'1/a Ilea "%waFfGs.8 pItis, Rudy Vallee and Standard Brands Inc. are terminating their radio contract at the end of Vallee's tenth year on the networks and concluding the longest association in radio of a •sponsor and a per- former. Vallee's final broadcast un- der the auspices of Standard Brands will occur on Thursday, September 28, 1939, closing an un- broken radio run on the NBC red network from 8.00 to 9.00 p.m. which commenced on October 24, 1929, when commercial radio broad- casting road casting was iu its infancy. Vallee, who was radio's initial phenomenon, was the first to give evidence of the power of broad- casting as a starmaker. His intro- duction ntraduction of most of present stars of the air to the microphone audience � led him to become radio's pioneer. showman. Vallee, first millionaire performer on the radio, ha,s felt for some time that an uninterrupted ten years of broadcasting under the sante sponsorship and at the same hour every Thursday night was suf- ficient. Barnum of Radio Vallee has frequently been called the Ziegfeld and Barnum of radio. He is responsible for uncovering the radio talents of Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy, Bob Burns, Alice Faye, Joe • Penner, Frances Langford, Tommy Riggs and Betty Lou and many others. Among the innumerable stars who came to radio first through the medium of Rudy Vallee's Variety Hour were Grace Moore, Katherine Hepburn, Helen Hayes, Fannie Brice, Robert Montgomery, Frank Fay, Joe Cook, Victor Moore, Walter O'Keefe and a host of others. Vallee became musically minded while he was attending Yale Uni Yer,4kt *Ile -played w saxopboae :iztiq a 'Yale band. After leaving college he organized his own dance or- chestra which led to his radio de- but in New York on a local station. His first appearance on a network program was on October 24, 1929, the commencement of the first and later most famous radio variety show. Vallee has missed only two .broadcasts in ten years, once due ,to the death of Mrs. Vallee, and once while en route to England to broadcast during the coronation of King George the Sixth. Vallee's plans for the future are as yet indefinite. TO BE HEARD Farm Broadcasts, CFRB 1.05 p.tu.
