SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON DOR
JUNE 17th, 1.923
Lesson Title—Esther, the -Patriot.
Lesson Passage ---Esther 4 : 13 to
5:3.
Golden Text—Esther 4:14.
When Cyrus king of Persia gape
the captive Jews- liberty to return to,
Palestine many choss to remain, pre-
ferring their present condition to the
unknown difficulties on the journey
and the deprivatioue•they might have
to face on : e a h°lig the home-lund.
Ar+liong these Was Mordecai who rase
to be an important person at Min -
tam us' Court
Who wrote be'. Book of Esther is
not definitely stated but this Morde-
cai wrote at least a part of it (Chap.
9:20)._ It is the complete story of a
plot to destroy ';the Jewish nation,
and of il�w one event dove -tailed into
another until the plot was entirely
over -thrown, and "tetany of those who
souiIit.their lives Oast their own
The name of God is not mentioned in
the Book but.the hand of Providence
• { is easily traced throughout.
The story opens with the de-
scription of a feast given by the king
at which the queen Vashti refused
to appear when called, it being con-
trary to all previous custom that she
should. Her deposition and the
choosing of Esther as her successor
are graphically described. Then fol-
lows an account of. Mordecai falling
under the disfavor of Haman, the
king's chief attendant, and his plot-
ting to punish .Mordecai by obtaining
liom. the king an edict against the
whole. Jewish race. Ty -day's. lesson
gives the efforts made by Mordecai
to rescue his people from such a fate.
He went out into the city, having put
on sackcloth with fishes, and cried
with a loud biter cry. This was
told to Esther who although raised to
the position of Queen still retained a
kindly interest in him who had' been
her guardian when she was left an
orphan.She sent clothes to him but
he refused to put them on. Then l:'s-
bher called one of her attendants and
had him, inquire of Mordecai "what it
was and why' it was." This attend-
ant brought back a full account of all
trouble; how 'Haman became incensed
because Mordecai cquld not conscien-
tiously and therefore, would not, how
before him and do him reverence;
how Haman intrigued against him by
saying, "Thete2 is a. certain people
scattered abroad and dispersed a-
mong the people in all the provinces
of thy kingdom; and their laws are
diverse from all people; neither keep
they the king's laws; therefore it is
not for the- king's profit to suffer
them." Mordecai sent Esther also a
copy of .the edict that she might see'
for herself the danger that she and
her people were in. He charged him
to tell her she should'make an appeal
to the king, putting the matter in a
•proper light and get him to alter the
decree. This the attendant did and
is sent back with Esther's reply. It
is a very simple matter to tell her to
appear before the king but she re-
minds Mordecai of the penalty that
she might have to pay for appearing
uncalled in the inner court. ,She puts
it very plainly, "All -the king's serv-
ants, and the people of the king's
provinces, do know, that whosoever,
whegther map or woman, shall come
unfit the king into the inner court,
Who is. mot called, thereis one law of
his to pht him to death, except such
to "horn the king shall hold out the
golden sceptre, that he may live; but
I have not bee called to come in
unto the king the'se thirty days."
Verse 13—Esther's' mesaages to
Mordecai were given as, commands
and now we see how his reply takes
on a similar case. She ninst 'make
this canoe her own. Her living in
the palace and wearing a 'crown can-
not revoke the decree on her behalf --
she is a Jetdess.'
Verse 14—The'7ewa. were God's
chosen people and He :113 not desert
them, so Molddai tells Esther If she
plays the coward's part'' then there
will be some other waf escape, but
she will reap the fruit ofaglier own
sowing, and she cannot stiffer alone
for no one e'er does, "Thou and thy
father's house shall be ,destroyed
when the rest of the families of the
Jews are preserbd." :Having stirred
her apirit by these harsh sayings he
adds 'this healing balm, "And ttho

NEW MENACE TO WATERFOWL
Further heavy losses eo migratory
waterfowl along the southern coast
ops Nova Scotia from fuel oil are re-
ported bythe chief Federal migra-
tory bird officer for the Maritime
provinces. Mergansers, murres, loons
and hundreds of dovekies have been
coming ashore dead and dying along
the coast from Seal Island to Cape
Cod as well as on Cape Island and
other islands along the Atlantic sea-
board. The birds' feathers were
heavily coated with a thick oily .sub-
stance like crude oil. It is presumed
that some of the oil -burning steamers
bound for Halifax had fouled 'the
water and the birds in landing to
rest or feed had become mired with
the heavy substance and losing their
power of flight had perished. The
destrµction of migratory waterfowl
by this means is causing deep concern
among game conservationists along
both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts,
and efforts are being made to secure
legislation to counteract this new
menace to bird life. ,

touched t e top of it ,showing to hinj
that she had come as an humble pe-
titioner. He did not, however, regard
her as an offender but rather ae one
whom he was' pleased to •see. "What
wilt thou, Queer' Esther, and what is
thy request?" Such gracious. words
would not 'be likely to fall• from the
lips of one angry at having been ap-
proached unherald,d. He who had
divorced Vashti for not coming when

coming uncalled. God had, however,
prepared the way for her and she is

"What is thy petition and what is

showed her wisdom by merely paving
l tie way for her great request, by in-
viting him and Haman to a banquet.
She hoped at the' banquet to have a
more favorable opportunity of pre-
senting her petition.
From this narrative many lessons
for present day living cah be gather-
ed, such as:
(1) No one who receives promo-
tion should cease to take an interest
ir, friends of former days, nor when
treed arises, fail to show that interest.
(2) When the way is dark and the
outcome uncertain communion with
God by prayer and fasting, will bring
courage to go forward.
(3) Whatever God intends us to
be or do He will bring it 'to pass.,

The head of the- automobile loss
department of a big American insur-
ance company picked up a claim from
the top of the pile on his desk and
ran down the little budget of checked
and rechecked reeorda that'compris-
ed the routine of the case. It was -a
claim for the insurance on an auto-
mobile which had run over an 'em-
bankment' while being driven by the
owner, who presented the claim.
records . were all in order. On the
face of it is was an ordinary demand
for the payment of the insurance un-
der the conditions of the policy. The
claimant gave a straightforward ac-
count of the accident, adding: "And,
thank God, nobody was killed." Tho
head of the loss department wrote his
initials and an O.K. and the claim
t forward to be Haid.
A few days later another claim,
having no connection with the first'
through either person or locality,
came off the top of the pile on the
desk. Again all was in order another
routine Lase. As the insurance man
jotted down his approval of payment
his eye caught the last line of the
claimant's letter. It read: "And,
thank God, nobody was killed."
And a few days later a third.
As a result of that pious expression
of thanks—added, presumably, ps a
little touch of verisimilitude—the of-
ficials of several states,. more cities,
Iand the U.S. government got to work,
and, aided by the special °detective
bureaus maintained by the insurance
companies which write automopile
business they arrested a lawyer who
had offices in two cities, charging him
with being the head of a ring of auto-
mobile insurance tricksters whose
territory was bounded only by the
Atlantic and the Pacific. The expos-
ure involved the names of several
alleged confederates, and among
those who figured in the case was a
woman school teacher.
Among inaurancevrten one can hear
some strange stories of, the detection
of fraud through casual methods. A
Ispecial agent, for instance, out on
the road, chances to Bee the out,
number of a car in a garage, remem-
bers it through an accidental resem-
blance to the number of his own mo-
tor, and thereby causes the arrest of
a ringster with a long record. -
Stranger yet is a tale that has a
Pullman for its setting. The presi-
dent of an insurance company chats
with a fellow -passenger, who remarks
that he owns five automobiles and has
a minimum repair bill, because when-
ever he wants a car overhauled or
repainted he has a slight collision
with a tree or a 'telegraph pole and
the insurance company pays the hill.
The president secures the man's name
largely out. of curiosity. But a few
days after he gets back to his office
he recognizes the name on a voucher
fer payment of a claim. A glance into
the files, shows a dozen similar claims"
from the same man. The segue! in
this case is that the owner of the five
automobiles was as much -of a good
sport as could be expected. A letter
of protest brought from him a check
for all the amounts paid him plus six
per cent. interest.
However, all the frauds affecting
12.000,000 motor vehicles'—or the
proportion of them which she insured
which is perhaps not more than 15
per cent,—cannot be detected by,
beasts and confessions in a Pullman.
ear. Hence the underwriters' detec-
tive force.,
Exact figures on automobile insur-
ance losses are difficult to compile.
Three years age one estimate of the
total reported lass through theft'in
the United States—that is, simply the
'thefts affecting insurance companies
and not counting the uninsured cars
—was $125,000,000. Since then the:

The latest 'figures having weight are
those' of the National Automobile
Dealers', Association, which show that
of cars reported stolen to the police
in 28 cities, 78 per cent. were recov-
ered in 1922. The•figures are: Cars
stolen, 35,333; recovered, 26,511. In
the previous year the figures gave
the thieves a better average; 37,554
cars stolen and 26,517'reco'/ered. Out:
side Of the cities, however, the prob-
lem may take a. different aspect. The
important change of the last year or
so has been an improvement in the
moral_hazard, according tb insurance
men. ' .
The moral hazard is a technical
term to cover • those situations in
which the policyholder would rather
have the insurance money than the
property.
The underwriters" detectives had
hard sledding for a. While. Less. than
two years ago the arrest of five men
in Detroit brought out the' fact that
for $75 an owner who wanted his
theft insurance money could arrange
to, have his car "stolen" and taken
out on Lake Erie to be dumped from
a
SCOW.
Enough cars to stock a big garage
were fished out of the East' River
about that time. They, too, had',been
"stolen." And in Chicago 20 or more
machines were recovered from a lake
in an old quarry. There were other,
cases of the kind elsewhere.
And there are the plain thieves who
have no understanding with the,own-
ers. When they work together,'run-
rung them down is like running down
any other gang.
The single thief is often a harder
case. He is of two types. One is the
joys -riding youngster who borrows a
cal and abandons it. The more diffi-'
cult thief is the expert who works for
the market. He dosen't touch a car
till he knows he can sell it—and that
lends to the problem of the dishonest
garage man who is a fence for stolen:
goods.
