(International Temperance
Sunday)
Micah 2:9-11; Luke 21:29-31,
34.36; J Cor. 6:9-11.
Golden Text. —Know ye not that
the unrighteous shall not inherit
the kingdom of God? I Cor. 6:9.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time.—Micah prophesied be-
tween A.D. 735 and 715. The
Olivet discourse was given on
Tuesday of Passion Week, April
4, either A.D. 29 or A.D. 30. The
First Epistle to the Corinthians
was written about A.D. 56.
Place.—Micah primarily pro-
phesied regarding conditions in
the city of Jerusalem. The Olivet
discourse was delivered on the
Mount of Olives, opposite and east
of the city of Jerusalem. The
city of Corinth was located in
southern Greece.
9. The women of my people ye
cast out from their pleasant hou-
ses from their young children ye
take away my glory for ever. The
unrighteous men of Israel are here
denounced who have oppressed the
widows and the orphans. 10.
Arise ye, and depart; for this is
not your resting place; because of
uncleanness that destroyeth, even
with a grievous destruction. The
passage is based upon idea con-
tained in Lev. 18: 25, 28, that the
land is ri e..E1,-,1 by Ihc sins pf its
inhabitants and will vomit th-qn
out because of this defilement. 11.
If a man walking in a spirit of
falsehood do lie, saying, I will
prophesy unto thee of wine and of
strong drink he shall even be the
prophet of this people.
Wine and strong drink
here are figures used to denote
earthly blessings and sensual en-
joyments, promise of which was
held out to the people by these
false prophets
Budding Fig -Tree
Luke 21:29. And he spake to
-.them a.narabler;..!.ehold the fig
tree, and all the trees: 30when
they no* shoot fort • "
twri trrimx. r yowl.
-"T- *the summer is' . 31. Even
so ye also, when ye see these things
coming fo7pass, know ye that the
kingdom of God is nigh. The fig -
and olive -trees are symbols pe-
culiar to Israel, and with the vine
represent the whole earthly his-
tory of the covenant people with-
in the times of redemption. Trees,
like men, have their youth, matur-
ity, old age. They change with the
seasons. Israel misused her first
national summer, and, being un-
srved, entered into a long, dread-
ful winter. Here are given signs
that a great change approaches in
the history of Israel. The fig -tree
is putting forth its leaves.
Peril of Worldliness
34. But take heed to yourselves
lest haply your hearts be over-
charged with surfeiting, and drunk
enness, and care of this life, and
that day come on you suddenly as
a snare. Surfeiting may be taken
to mean the nausea which follows
debauch. Neither the Old nor the
New Testament explicitly teaches
what we call total abstinence from
all intoxicating liquor, but we must
emphasize the fact that drunk-
enness throughout the Bible is ab-
solutely condemned as one of the
gravest forms of sin, and more
than once we are reminded that
drunkards will have no part at all
in the kingdom of God, The day
that is here referred to is the day
when the Lord Jesus Christ is com-
ing back again, Our Lord is warn-
ing of the danger that men and
women will be so occupied with in-
dulgences of the flesh or the care
of business that they will not be
ready for the Lord when he comes
hack.
35, For so shall it conic upon all
them that dwell on the face of the
earth. 36, But watch ye at every
season, malting supplication, that
ye, may prevail to escape all these
things that shall come to pass, and
to stand before the Son of man.

past week, Is that Nelson Eddy has
handed in his resignation to the

born Hour. Eddy will bow himself
out on Sunday, November 5th, and

In parting with Charaie MeCaa.
thy, Edgar Bergen, Don ameche

reason the heavy commitments he

cording activities this winter. It

Earliest Watches
Were Egg -Shaped
Introduced In Germany, They
Became Fashionable Articles
in Sixteenth Century
Peter Henlein, a mechanic and
locksmith, of Nuremberg, Germany
is generally credited with being
the Bra man to make watches.
About 1,500 he set himself to pro-
duce a small pocket clock. For the
motive power he introduced the
main spring, and with this as a
basis produced libtle clocks —
"watches" as they came to be
known — which would fit in the
pocket or the purse.
We call an old-fashioned watch
a "turnip" because it is so thick,
but that is nothing compared to
Peter Henlein's products, says
"The Rocky Mountain Herald."
They were almost round, and when
they were sold throughout Europe,
they became known as "Nurem-
berg eggs." •
urging her famous husband to de-
vote more time to hard recital
work, at least that is the gossip
of the studios. In any event the
baritone's voice has much improv-
ed of late and his •singing gives
every evidence of long and ardu-
.‘amis praetice.

THE mean distance from the earth to the sun also is used as
the base line for the measurement of the distances of the stars
and other celestial objects outside our own solar system. For
this reason, great care has been taken to see that this measure-
ment is very accurate.
