S. S. LESSON FOR JUNE 28, 1931 Lesson Topic -Review: Jesus the World's Saviour; Suffering and Sov- ereignty. Golden Text -John 3:16. April 5th -Easter Lesson: The Res- urrection. -1 Corinthians 15:1-8; 50-58. -1 Corinthians 15:20. Paul in this immortal chapter be- gins by reminding the Corinthian church that the Gospel he 'always preached was Christ died, was buried and rose again. He always appealed to the testimony of eyewitnesses for the truth of what he proclaimed. He dwelt at great length on the mystery of the resurrection, always referring to what could be seen in the great, mysterious world of nature, showing them that death is but the pathway to a larger, richer and more beautiful life. April 12th -The Prodigal Son. -Luke 15:11-24. -Luke 15:10 The two prominent figures in this lesson •are the son and the father, types of the sinner and God. The son, finding the restraints of home irksome, breaks away and in seeking happiness elsewhere finds misery. Coming at length to himself, he resolves to re- turn and acknowledge himself in the wrong, He receives a far different greeting from the father than he looks ,for, but this is a type of the home- coltling of the sinner who repents, re- turnee ins fonfesses. April 19 ---The Rich an and Lazarus. -Luke 16:19-31, . -Matthew 6;20. Christ in this parable points out the future results of present indiffer- ence. The rich man represents a class completely unmindful of others, giving not even a passing thought to the suffering and need of his fellow- men. Lazarus is the type of the poor generally. Had the rich man given heed to what the law and the prophets taught concerning the treatment of the poor, he would have been saved from such selfishness and from the loss of his own soul. April 27th -How to Pray. -Luke 18:1-14. -Luke 11:1. In the first parable Jesus uses the persistent pleading of her case by a woman before a judge as an illustra- tion of how to pray. "Men ought al- ways to pray, and not to faint." In the second parable there are two men praying in the temple and Jesus con- trasts their attitude and their spirit and commends the publican who is humble and reverent, whereas the Pharisee is self -boastful and flippant. Where there is no reverence, there is May 3rd -Jesus in the Home of Zacchacus. -Luke 19:1-10. -Luke 19:10. In this lesson there is recorded an instance of a sudden and lasting con- version. Zacchaeus was moved to seek to see Jesus; Jesus took notice of this attempt and sought to help him to still further sight and close up con- tact with himself. The veil was lift- ed from his eyes and his mind and his heart, and at once the change was manifest in what he said. He deter- mined henceforth to be the very op- posite of what he had been. Change of heart leads to change in the way of living, which is true conversion. May 10th -The Parable of the Pounds -Luke 19:11-26. -I Corinthians 4:2. In this lesson referenceeis made to the capital entrusted to the servants; the use made of it; the profits receiv- ed and the accounting to the Master. The one who received most at the first was given most reward for faithful- ness determines increase; that is the law of nature and the sovereign will of a just God. 'allay 17 -Jesus Enters'Jerusalem As King. -Luke 19:29-42, 45-48. -Revelations 17:14. There were two classes in the crowd that surrounded Jesus as He entered Jerusalem at this time. Some cried, "Hosannahs" and others derided and sought to have the honored one sil- ence them. Jesus wept as He lament- ed the hardness of heart of the in- habitants of Jerusalem in their fail- ure to recognize Him as their Mes- siah. On entering the Temple He ful- filled a prophecy when He drove the money=changers gout -;"The. zeal sof Thy house hath eaten me up." May 24 -Jesus Preparing for the End. -Luke 22:7-23. -Luke 22:19. Jesus gave instructions to Peter and John to go into the city and make ready for the observance of the Pass- over. When all was ready he and his disciples went in from Bethany and there in the "large upper room," He instituted the Lord's Supper. "The Lord Jesus, en the same night in which He was betrayed, took bread, and when He had given thanks, brake it and said, Take, eat; this is My !body which is broken for you; this do in remembrance of Me. After the same manner also He took the cup, when He had supped, saying, This cup is the New Testament in MY blood; this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in re- membrance of Me" (1 Cor. 11:23-25). May Slat -Jesus in Gethsemane. -Luke 22:39-54. -Luke 22:42.'. Jesus and eleven of His disciples Ieft the upper room, left the city and entered the Queen een of Gethsemane, where ,The sought strength for the coaling hour in prayer. Herayed to the Father that He might be spar- ed the ordeal; that riot His wit' . but the Father* might be done. Strength to endure was given and Be went for sward to meet the enemy who He knew, " I'm a different woman " " Two years ago I began to get depressed, and everything was too much trouble for me. I was a misery to myself and everyone around me. I was advised to take Glauber Salts by my friends who said it was the same as Kruschen but it did me no good, so at last my husband got me a bottle of Kruschen and no one would realise the different woman I am. I have been taking Krtlschen now constantly for two years. My daughter also would not be without it. I have got my neighbour to take Kruschen as well and she has found its worth as she feels a different woman." -(Mrs. G. A. K.) The commonest cause of depression is partial constipation -an insidious complaint because the sufferer is seldom aware of it. It means the gradual accumulation of body poisons which dull the mind, damp the spirits, sap the nervous strength and lower the whole vitality. Kruschen Salts make constipation impossible. Therefore, if you keep to Kruschen you need never know the meaning of melancholy ; never feel " nervy " or depressed. was near at hand. We see in the way He met Judas, the soldiers and the chief priests that He had conquered and though a prisoner in the hands of a mob He was King. Even then we see Him performing one last act of miraculous mercy in healing the wound inflicted by impulsive Peter. June 7th ---Jesus Crucified. -Luke 22:33-46. -Isaiah 53:5. Raised upon a cross, in the midst of two suffering, as one of them admit- ted, justly, Jesus laid down His life, a voluntary sacrifice which no man was able to take from Him. In the midst of physical and mental anguish one of the thieves saw in Jesus hope for eternity and he was not disap. pointed. While he cried, Jesus heard and answered. And then, tHis wort; finished, He commended His spirit in- to the hands of His Father. June 14th -The Resurrection Ascension. j �,tlke 24:25-40, 50, 51, 1 .T.temans :34. 1 Jesus revealed Himself as the Ris- en Christ to two of His disciples while on a walk out into the country from Jerusalem. They were astonished that anyone could be ignorant of the incidents of the past three days, but gave the Stranger who joined them a full account and became surprised that He knew more of the prophets' teaching than they and were amazed and overjoyed when their eyes were opened and they recognized Him as Jesus. Later on as they were telling the good news to the other disciples Jesus appeared in their midst. At other 'times during the next forty days He mingled with the disciples and ethers, and then ascended to heaven, blessing the disciples as He vanished from their midst. June 21st --The Sin of Causing Others to Stumble. -Romans 141:13-23. --Romans 14:21. Paul in this letter to the Christian people in Rome is laying down a principle of conduct based on the val- ue of a soul as seen in the redemption wrought out by Christ. He urges them to do nothing whether in eating or drinking or in general conduct that would cause a fellow -being to stum- ble or fall, even though it might be a safe enough thing for him to do, and the A MODERN COUPLE The young Greenes had a host of friends in their home town and it was a real wrench when they moved away. But they vowed they'd keep their friendships alive; and they have, by frequent telephoning. Long Distance calls on holidays -special occasions -keep the circle united in the old-time intimacy. GAIN FUMIGANT PREVENTS FIRE Development of a new method of fumigating grain in storage without incurring a fire hazard is an out- standing achievement of government scientists during the past year, Dr. C. L. Marlett, chief of the Bureau of DepartmentEntomology of the Department pf Agriculture, reveals in his annual re- port. The new fumigant is a mixture of solid carbon dioxide, or "dry ice," and ethylene oxide. Tests by commercial handlers of grains have proved the value of the method, which is econ- omical and superior to the more fa- miliar carbon disulphide treatment of grain, due to its non -inflammability, Avoid Serious Disorders in Your Children!

What- ever her national origin, her type was fixed. She was, presumably, sturdy; no one inquired concerning her health. She had left school somewhere in the grammar graves, if indeed she had ever been to school, And for any- where from $2.50 to $3.00 a week she did all the work of the household -scrubbing, cooking, dish washing, dusting, often washing and ironing as well. Thursday, from the time she had cleaned up lunch and prepared dinner. in its first stages -say about three - :thirty p.m. -.was her own; so was ev- ery other Sunday from the same hour. On other days her hours were long as there was world to be done. From the usually overcrowded kitchen the family, in the evenings, would often hear loud strains of melody the Girl amusing herself by singing over the dishes. Sometimes, instead, there was a murmur of voices -once in a while, sad to relate., one of the voices would be masculine. Then the mistress would descend and (perhaps after lis- tening discreetly for a while in the darkness) would appear suddenly at the kitchen door. "Anna," she would inquire majes- tically, "who is your caller?" "It's only my brother Tom, ma'am," Anna would reply in a flustered tone, while brother Tom tried to blend in- conspicuously with the wall. She had cause to be flustered. Girls with too many or too devoted brothers or cous- ins were likely to be seeking another place ere long. Advertisements for girls frequently mentioned, as one of the requirements, "No followers." In hiring a Girl the first ceremony was taking her up to see her room. The day before, the wise mistress had cleaned it and put it in order, with a fresh tidy back of the washstand and a clean white spread on the bed. The Girl would survey it in silence. If she put her valise down on the floor the victory was won. However ad- vanced the furnishings of the house as a whole• -however replete with sta- tionary washstands and incandescent lights -the Girl's room was usually of ail earlier era. She was not supposed to share the sanitary arrangements of the family. When Ch'ristFdi1i ori.'beds self-re- specting people /le'e'r fi ai`got the Girl. Chlildeeil acid ern anandchildren who Were frequent visitors had gifts bought in their names and presented to her. Typically they included a new white apron (plain); a small bottle of drug -store perfumery; a box of pink or lavender notepaper; and another box, ornately decorated, containing hard pink and white candies., with an occasional chocolate cream. Other needs the Girl had none. Really nice people always remem- bered to be humane to the Girl. In the evening, when all the family had finished with the paper, a child was frequently sent to the kitchen with it. On hot summer evenings, when every- one sat on the front steps and devour- ed ice cream, the Girl, of course, re- mained in the coal -heated kitchen, but a small saucer of cream was always saved for her. Custom demanded that the Girl con- sume for her meals whatever happen- ed to be left from the family repast, on a kitchen table piled with dirty dishes; and if the family and guests were unusually hungry, and there was nothing left of the chicken or the pie, there was always plenty of potatoes and bread. The Girl, of course, was not always true to type. There was a Girl of my childhood recollections who stole all the after-dinner coffee cups; there was the Girl who got drunk and re- quired two husky policemen to cart her off to jail; there was the Girl who scared herself so badly with the ghost stories she told us children that she was afraid to go to bed till my mother had lighted her way with a candle. The Girl of Polish extraction seem- ed to supply most of the local color. The first wedding I ever witnessed had for its piece de resistance our late Girl, a Polish maiden. Anter the ceremony the guests, a bit hilarious, suggested that the bridegroom show his bride at once that be was master of his house. This he did by knock- ing her flat, satin gown, veil and all. Six months later the bride was back, seeking advice from my mother amid a welter of sobs. At last her grief emerged from the lachrymal display: "I know my man has another woman; he doesn't love me no more, he hasn't beaten me for three Saturday nights!" Only the very best Girls remained content with their situation until death or until marriage --that lesser death of their kind. (A Girl never worked after marriage; all she did was take in washing).. Sooner or latex, with most of their breed, a serpent crept into Eden. In spite of their easy du- ties and high pay, they became spoil- ed; and the first symptom always was that after some slight scolding or sudden change of orders they Answer- ed Back. Answe'ring Back was a ma- jor crime in a Girl, as it was in a child. After two or three examples of such mutiny the best mistress would say regretfully, "Well, Anna, I'm afraid we can't get along. Take your notice." Mistresses not quite so thoughtful as the notice-giiving varie- ty would simply remark, "You may go." The Girl would go immediately though with mutterings, to find what refuge or work she could. The Girl must always be respect- ful. Her master was always "Sir," her mistress always "Ma'am"; and when the children reached their 'teens they became automatically Mr. Harry and Miss Edith. No matter how the children teased her, she must never complain. I grieve to say that many of the Girls of my recollection failed to live up to this grand old tradition. Just when the breed! of Girl began to become extinct T can, hardly re- member. She long `survived the on- set of industrialism; several Girls to my knowledge had sisters in factories. Probably the leas aggressive of work- ing class maidens -gravitated to the oe- dupation of 'Guiness; aggressiveness was above all others, the trait least relished in a Girl. Sometimes she ji 71 • CHEVROLET • The world's lowest priced Six. 12 models listing from $610 to $840 at factory. • PONTIAC 4 6 models, listing from $875 to $1,015 at factory. • OLDSMOBILE • 6 models, listing from $1,085 to $1,230 at factory.

Often the Girl's last name was utter- ly unknown in the household in which she might have lived and worked for years -snail which came in et the front door, was almost as gr at an offense as were "followers," who came in at the rear. To -day, as we know all too sadly, the Girl I have pictured has disap- peared. What occasionally, in smal- ler cities, passes by her name is not the same thing at all. The War dealt the last blow to her diminishing num- bers. One may regard her, therefore, with that slightly sentimental eye which is cast upon all recherches du temps perdu. And, from that vantage point, it oc- curs to me to wonder why to so few mistresses of those far-off days it ever suggested itself that the patient drudge in .the kitchen, gravitating from dawn to dark between that ill arranged workshop and the cheerless XIMMOIMOMix bedroom on the third floor back, was; after all, a young, eager, dream -rid- den human being.
