SUNDAY AFTERNOON
(By Isabel Hamilton, Goderich, Ont.)
Man Built tor !leaven.
Man sure was built for Heaven.
Why should he crew)
A slimy winding way
Upon the earth
Thut gio, • him birth?
Is this world all?
To biro 'tis given
To know the thoughts of day
And walk with God upright
Along the path of light.
N ot in the dark of night
To stumble hetelliesly.adown
The way uf sin,
And miss the, golden crown
That might have been
.A life magnificent in loving detais,
In daily sowing God's gotal nerds
Of truth and right and love
To flower in full magnificence in hea•
ven above.
W. D. Woodward.
Prayer.
0 Lord, we come to Thee to plead
that Thnu woultist tier/Uwe our ini-
quities from the "far as the east is
from the west " and that Thou would -
est lift up our hearts to Thyself, in
the lofty heaven, that we may no
longer cleave to the things beneath.
Strengthen us to call upon Thy name.
Help us to feel that we are nut cast-
ing our words into an empty heaven
tut pouring them, into the hearing
ear of our Father God. Through
Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amun.

Lesson Title -Jesus Teaching in
the Temple.
Lesson Passage -Luke 20 : 19-26;
21 : 1-4.
Golden Text -Luke 20 : 23.
This lenSun in also to be found in
Matt. 22:13-22 and Mark 12:13-17.
There the spies spoken of in this
chapter are called '"The Pharisee;
and Herodians." They differed in
opinion about tribute money. The
law of Moses was, that a stranger
should not be set over the Jews as a
king (Deut. 17-155. Herod, who had
received the kingdom of Judea by ap-
pointment of the Romans, held that
the law of Moses referred only to a
voluntary choke of a king, and did
not refer to a necessary submission,
where they had been overpowered by
force.
They, the Herodians, supposed
therefore that it was lawful in such
cases to pay tribute to a foreign
prince. This minion was, however,
extremely unpopular among the Jews,
especially the Pharisees. Their join-
ing •together in order to catch Jesus
is p case which often occurs his-
tory, namely, a coalition of two hos-
tile parties with a view of crushing a
third, dangerous to both. If Jesus
should answer in the affirmative His
influence with the people would be de-
etreyed. If he should reply in the
negative he would declare himself 'a
rebel against the Roman governor.
Verse -19-'"The chief of priests
and the scribes perceived that He had
spoken this parable against them."
The parable of the vineyard came
home to their hearts and consciences
iiintexaaperated them. Two feelings
mingled within their breasts - fear-
ing and seeking. In their rage they
sought to lay hands on Jesus and it
was not their fear of God or of His
south that restrained them. It was
only bemuse they feared the people
that they did not seize him and kill
him. They must reach him some
other way than by causing a tumult.
They, therefore, consulted together
and outlined a plan by which they
hoped to catch him by guile. The
plot they laid was to result in Jesus
being handed over to the power and
authority of the Governor (verse 201.
Jesus before this had told his disci-
ples he would he delivered unto the
Gentiles (chap. 1R:32) so no, plotting
could accomplish any thing that was
not already decreed to come to pass
in the earthly life .of Jesus.. The
spies feigned themeelves just men.
It is no unusual thing for had men
to pretend to be good, even going so
far as to be prominent churchmen to
gain some advantage in life. Satan
even, can transform himself into an
angel of light (2 Con 11-14). These
men approached Christ and engaged
lain, in conversation. They were very
generous in their style of addrees
'Mester, we know that thou sayest
and tenchesrightly' (verse 21 ).
Flattery is ever a false mode of
speech, yet it is often the eneane
whereby shallow people are caught;
and the point sought is gained. Here,
however, Jesus understood their de-
sign he manifested forth his Omni -
set nee.
"Neither acceptest thou the person
of any, but teachest the way of God
truly.' They epeak fair words hut
the intention is 'Nitre. Having ap-
proached him with these smooth SA-
sertiong they suddenly hurl at Him
the question, "Is it /awful for us to
give tribute unto Caesar or no?" hop-
ing to catch Him unawares. Shonld
Jews. the descendants of Abrahern,
pay tribute to Caesar, a Roman Gov-
ernor? (The name Caesar, after the
firne of Julius Caeser, became errin-
neon to all the emperors, as Pharaoh
was the common name of all the
kings of Egypt. The Caesar that.
reigned at this time was Tiberius)..
Their pride was sorely hurt at hav-
ing to pay these taxes and so they
ask, "la 'e lawful?r' But He per-
ceived their craftiness and said unto
them, "Why tempt ye me?" (verse
23). They set a trap, but as often
happens it did not work as it was in-
tended it should. Jesus saw through
their scheming and reproved them by
aching why they were trying to lead
him into a dittieulty. He called fur
a piece of money and they handed
hires penny, a Roman coin bearing
the image of Caesar on• its face.
They saw at once that the trappers
tied been trapped and as Ile proceed-
ed in His talk they were more and
mere astunished at His way of deal-
ing with them, and they had the
aenee to keep silent. It was an or-
dinary coin He asked for, Buchan they
used in their business transactions
It was furnished by Catetar for their
cenvenienee „in business transactions,
itad au he says, "Render to Caesar
the things that are Caesar's." Fur
the privileges of trade and the rights
uf justice they were dependent on the
pr..teetion uf Catetur and should
therefore pay taxes to him. In holy
thinge God was their head and king,
tea Caesar, so they should wurehie
Him &dune and pay their temple tax

WORLD MISSIONS
Ilisl ys Despite Broken Equipmeta
The only Protestant work being
dGne among 2e,000 Jews in the east
MY.' York section of Brooklyn is that
ccnducted by the Presbyterial Home
Hoard at 2930 Pitkin avenue.
Mrs. Ida A. Birigener is in charge of
the work, which is carried on in an
inadequate rented store with practi-
cally no equipment. Indeed, Mrs.
Bingener says that a few chairs,
benches and tables --all of them in
various stages of disrepair and iany
of them badly broken -an old ano,
two book cases and an old desk form
Inc entire equipment. But. with this
battered array she manages to hold
the' interest a .the children of the
neighborhood, and the religious story
papers, such as The Sunbeam and
The Forward, which she hands out.
prove very attractive to the little
folks. These papers arc back num-
bers, donations from various church-
es.
One of the most interesting recent
meetings was held for goy scouts the
day following the Hebrew any of a-
tonement. The question of the lads
led to a talk by the missionary on
Christ as the great atonement, and
she expected that her plain speaking
would anger many of the boys so
that they would „leave the mission.
But in this Case no trouble arose and
no lads left. Work among these
boys is becoming more and more en-
couraging. One boy who has been
coming faithfully for about a year
rushed in one day breathlessly ask-
ing for a Bible for his brother. The
brother was going to sea that day.
and he wanted to have a Bible in
Jewish and English. The mission
had 'none on hand, so the brother was
willing to take an English Bible.
Word has come hack since that the
young man is pleased with his pur-
chase and is reading both Testaments
earefunee Now the younger lad has
asked for a Bible also and has prom -
to read it.

Should a Woman Endure
More than a Man ?
Is it fair to ask a woman to submit to the heavy drugery
of washday and the unwise exposure to cold and chilling winds?
Certainly it is no longer necessary -for a charge of less
than it would cost you at home, when you count your own
time.
We will call for your Bundle and do your entire washing
and any part or all of your ironing.
From now on, send us the Family Washing, or a representa-
tive will pick it up and deliver it.
