We've a story to tell to the nations, That shall turn their hearts to the • fright, A story of truth and sweetness, v A story of peace and light. We've a message to give to the na- tions, That the Lord who reigneth above Huth sent us His son to save us, And show us that God is love. We've a Saviour to show to the no- tions, Who the path of sorrow has trod, That all of the world's great peoples, Might come to the truth of God. PRAYER We thank Thee, 0 God, for the message that is ours; that Thou didat so love the world that Thou ;gayest Thy only begotten Son, that who- soever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Help us so to live that we may, in very deed, tell the story of Jesus and His love to all with whom we come in daily contact. Amen. ' SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON, MALE. • • • • • • 25th, 1923. j Lesson Title -Review - Jesus the Y World's Saviour. Lesson Passage -Rev. 7:9-17. Golden 'Text -I Tim. 1:15. b The studies have been fur the guar 4 Ler in the Gospel of Luke and hate I waft with the teaching of Jerea largely. Luke's gospel differs con. . siderably frotn the other three. Ile gives it. a somewhat lengthy intru- rInction, beginning it with a word not \cry frequently used in Scripture. ,f o -t ••d•'ut•easmuch." 1t :;haws the trend of 1 his mind --the physician mind--diag- nn::ing and coming to conclusions. Not again dues he make referenve• directly to himself, but all through can be read the strength of that sante weli-trained mind, going into detail; and giving incidents not touched up- on by others. He alone relates the conversations between the angel and Mary, and between Elizabeth an Mary. St. Luke alone records the List discourse at Nazareth, the mi.,- sioi of the Seventy, the parable of tine Good Samaritan, the call of Zac- ohaeus, and the parables of the lost coin and the lost man. There breathes all through this gospel t humanitarian spirit such as a well- bt loved p}15•sician would direct in others, especially in him who came to seek and to save. Lesson I. -Jesus teaching by His work the proper use of the Lords Day. Luke 13:10-17. He was teach- ing in the Synagogue and, noticing a woman afflicted for eighteen years, he touched her and she was carred. The rulers were incensed at this, to their minds, wrong use of 'the Sab- bath. Jesus teaches them "That the Sabbath was made for than, and -utt man for the Sabbath." (March2.27.t Lesson 1i. Humility -Luke 14:7•-14. There are two important features to this lesson --Pride goeth before a full ant: Humility brings its own reward, is taught in the first section of the parable. "For, whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that bumbleth himself shall be exalted." In the second section true hospitality is explained, entertaining those who cannot pay back in the same way. Lesson III. -The far-reaching love of God. Luke 15:11-24. The univer- sality of the gospel is the red thread running through the parable of the prodigal son. . The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long-suffering to us -ward not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to re- pentance (2 Peter 3.9.) Lesson IV. -The Rich Man and Lazarus. -Luke 16:19-3-. Here is vividly brought out the short- ti-ght- 3 1/4 edness of those who value riche too highly -God judges men differen y than they judge each other -"Judge not according to the appearance, hut judge righteous judgment" - John 7.24. As a man sows here so shall he reap hereafter a's exemplified in the lives of Dives and Lazarus after death, "And then shall He reward every man according to his works." 4 Matt. 16:26-27.) Lesson V. -The Grace of Grati- tude. Luke 18:I.14. A fellow feel- s ing makes us wondrous kind. Here are nine men who under ordinary cir- cumstances in life would not have had any dealings with the tenth. All arc lepers and together they seek the healer. Their conduct after being healed shows a marked contrast. The one is alone, as he would have been, had he not been a leper. Those who would have been first to return thanks were the .last. There is noth- ing hurts more than ingratitude from tlTbse.who should know better than to neglect to give it thanks, Lesson VI -Importunate Prayer. Luke 18 : 1-14, The reward that comes from perseverance in prayer is brought out in this lesson. If we really want what we are asking for we must show it. There must. he seeking before there can he finding. Then, too, there must he a fit setting; for our prayer. We must he humble st ppliants. at the throne of grace. - Lesson VII -,leans and Zacchaens -Luke 19 : 1-10. "fie that seareh- eth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit" (Rom.8.27. Jesus could distinguish between the Ph}{ar- isees and the Publicans whom tlAsy despised, for he could look below tlhi°ee surface and read the character. He saw in Zacchaeus possibilities for set, vice in the kingdom of God, while to others he was merely an outcast. Lesson VIII. -The Parable of the Pounds. Luke 19:11/6. In the dis- tribution of pounds each servant was treated like his neighbor.. The dif- ference came in the use made of them. The one most diligent wns moat successful and consequently re- ceived the greatest commendation; while the one that neglected to make any use whatever, put himself in the way of not only reproof but loss. Failure to use our talents or gifts whatever they are, will most. assured- ly result in deprivation. Lesson IR. -Jesus the Fearless Teacher -Luke 20 : 19-26. 21 : 1-4. There are two parts to this lesson. In the first the chief priests and Geo. A.

"Daughters from Afar" is an unus- ual book. When yob sit late into the night to finish it (it is not a large book, but we had begun it late in the evening) you know you are being held by a story of power. An ordin- ary tale of mission work will keep until to -morrow, but Miss White has made us so interested in her women and girls, in Amnaji, in little Sita, the bride of eight years old, and Gnani, the baby who had lost her smile, that we want to know them all at once. Drama threads these stor- ies through, yet, Miss White never seems to be writing with a conscious dramatic intent. "So far as enquiry can discover," writes Professor Thorp of the United Theological Col- lege, Bangalore, in a preface to the book, "every incident has been set down as it occurred, and the very conversations have,, been recorded as rehearsed by those who took part in them." Miss White has the artist's eye which revels in the light and eel - or of Tndiati life. Her book will be I read with .particular interest in Meth- odist circles (to which she and the mission belong), but it will bade a wider public among all who are in- terested in the life and problems at the Fast. -British Weekly. CANADA'S FOREST FIRE -- PLAGUE Four thousand' forest fires left Can- ada millions of dollars poorer last year and, says the Canadian Forestry Association, unless every care -is ex- ercised by campers, fishermen, set- tlers and others, 1923 will show a loss equally as great. Nine-teuths of all forest fires in Canada occur through human acts which are incidental to land clearing, fishing and hunting. Very few fires are deliberately set. HOW HE KNEW An Englishman arrived in the Wild West. It was that part of the world where -the cowboys, made familiar to us on the pictures, come from. He had been told to ask for the foreman of a certain ranch who would give him a job. He went up to the first manhe saw and asked: "Have you seen a tall fellow with a dark beard hanging about here?" "Yes," replied the man. "The day before yesterday." "You're sure?" asked the English- man. "Oh, yes!" was the calm answer. "I had hold of the rope!" _ Father: "Yes, children, Mr. Lloyd George saved his country, just the same as Joan of Are saved France." Bright Child: "And when are they going to burn Lloyd George?" "The time will come," thunders the lecturer on woman's rights, "when women will get men's wages." "Yes," said a weak little man in the back stat, "next Saturday!" SOME F'IC'TIONS OF CHURCH ' UNION To the Editor, The Huron Expositor, Sir: --(lee result of the Movement called "Union," is a large fruitage of fictions; iJtcr•e are fictions old, fictions naw, and fictions of the West. Here- with a sample dozen. I. There is the fiction that "Church Union" is settled, the As- sembly has decided it, and the only ting now is to accept it. Pure fie- ' tent. The Assembly is not the mas- ter but the servant of the church, ap- pointed to legislate within and for the church, but with no more right or power to vote away the autonomy of the church or transfer it to an- other control than has Parliament to hand over Canada to the U. S. A. 2. There is the fiction that "ell constitutional steps have been taken" when there are , no "constitutional steps" of any kind, in the Presbyter- ian church for its own disbanding. All who wish to withdraw are free to do so, but all the "constitutional steps" of the Presbyterian church are for its own continuance. Further, every one charged with ' the care of those "constitutional steps," every minister and elder is pledged to that continuance; pledged by his ordination vows to "maintain an defend this church," and every minister, each time he is inducted into a new charge, is pledged anew 1.to this church, to its doctrine, gov- ernment and worship, to adhere faith- fully to it, to maintain and defend it, and "to follow no divisive course from the present order established therein," 3. There is the fiction that it an- swers Christ's prayer when Christ never prayed for organization but for unity of spirit among His followers. Christ never taught that His church- should be one in name and type and that a few men should have the right r to decide that type and impose it upon others. He rebuked the Apostle John for attempting such a thing. Marie 9 : 38-39. 4. There is the fiction of "the ma- jority vote of the people" when only one-third of the people voted for Union and no one ever knew in Can- ada so unjust a thing as a great or•-' genization disbanded or transferred to another control on the demand of one-third of its membership. 5 5. There is the fiction that "Union" is necessary for work in the West, when committees on to -opera- tion have already eliminated all needless overlapping in Home Mis- sions. 6 There is the fiction that the West is solid for Union, when.thou- sands in the West are against it, and some of its strongest opponents are in districts where they have seen its enforced working. 7. There is the fictiop of the host _ oe union churches already formed, when all these are simply the result of co-operation, one parent church REF 0 R E my withdrawing here and another there, to prevent overlapping; and when nearly all these so-called "union" churches are now allied with one or other of the parent churches and are free to choose any church connection they may prefer, without rending to pieces the whole church all over Canada. 8. There le the fiction that more mission work would be done, as if two pints .would make more .than a (mart with a large part spilled in the , p ruring together; and when the very attempt to force it is now killing our mission funds. 9. There is the fiction that it would promote Christian unity, when it has .thrust into the Presbyterian church in the past dozen years more division and strife than has been be- tween all the denominations in all Canadian history. 10. There is the fiction that it is demanded by the young, when the students of Canada, formerly organ- ized as a part of the Y.M.C.A., have, within the past two years, separated and withdrawn themselves, and form- ed the Student Christian Federation 'of Canada,, which held recently its first National Convention in Toronto. i Tho students -as do Presbyterians - demand religious liberty. - 11. There is the unworthy fiction that this Movement is opposed be-, cause of "prejudice." It is opposed because of the conviction that it is not of God nor for the good of His Ring - 1 dom. It is opposed because to ex- change the democratic Presbyterian Church pledged by ordination vows to Evangelical Truth, for an autocratic legal Corporation, pledged to no sys- tem of Truth, would be a long step 1 backward in rellgdoun freedom and progress. 12. Therei.is the fiction that this Movement is an example to the whole world of the Spirit of Christ, when the only Church, is -a spirit of callouv disregard of the .scores of thousands who seek to coerce no one, adios: prayer is to be allowed to remain 1n pence in their own church; --a spirit of supreme indifference to its own cast pledges as to necessary unanim- ity and -as shown in the "Church Union" 11111-a spirit of ruthless put. - BABY CAME I Was Greatly Benefited by Taking Lydia E.
