S. S. LESSON FOR JUNE 26, 1932
Lesson Topic -Review: What We
Have Learned From Genesis.
Lesson Passage -Hebrews 11:4-22.
Golden Text -Romans 8:28.
April 3 -God In Creation.
-Genesis 1:1-5, 26-31.
-Genesis 1:1.
In the first verse of the first Book
of the Bible we find the first article
of our creed, that God the Father
Almighty is the maker of heaven and
earth. Inverse 26 we read that man
is God's child and as we read further,
we see how dominion and power were
,placed in His hands and that God's
blessing rested upon him. .
April 10 -How Sin Begins.
-Genesis• 2:15-17, 3:1,8.
-Matthew 26:41.
God having created the world, plat-
ed the man whom H. formed out cif
the dust of the earth, in the lgarden
of Eden to care for and tend it. He
gave permission to him to 'eat of the
fruit of every tree but ane. God's
sovereignty was to be supreme. ; , But
the woman, who was given to man as
a help meet was deceived by Satan
and in falling she dragged her hus-
band down with her and thus sin
entered into the life of man.
April 17 -The Call of Abram.
-Genesis 12:1-9.
-Genesis 12:2.
God called Abram to leave his coun-
try, kindred and father's house and go
fort,11 to a land He wo)x1d show him.
,4:lnam was at'i•dolater but from the
dee he 'heard the call of God and
obeyed, he became a worshipper of
the one true and living God. God
said, '°I will show;" "I will make;"
"I will bless," and all three promises
were fulfilled.
April 24-Abram's 'Generosity to Lot.
-Genesis 13:5-15.
-Romans 12:10.
The time came that gircurnstances
made it obligatory for Abram and his
nephew Lot to part from each other.,
The character of the, two is plainly
seen in the offer'an;df 'he -acceptance.
Abram was nwte than gb°nerous and
Lot was grasping. The one was hapa.
pe in his magnanimity rind the other
even {sally suffered materially and
morally.
May 1 -Isaac and His Wells.
-Genesis 26:12-25.
-Proverbs 15:1.
When leaving the land of the
Philistines Isaac's herdmen had to
dig wells in order to water the flocks
and herds. Twice they found flowing
wells but in each case the men of
Cerar took them from them and they
had to pass on. The third time they
were Unmolested. proving that per-
sistent effort in 'the face of strong
opposition wins out in the end and,
as in the case of Isaac, wins the ap-
proval and blessing , of God.
May. $-Esau Sells His Birthright
,(Temperance Lesson).
-Genesis 25:27-34.
i Corinthians 9:25.
Esau and Jacob, grandsons of the
patriarch 'Abram, were twins but
were Most unlike in appearance and
character. When they grew to man=
hood one was a hunter and the other
a shepherd. It had ,been revealed to
•
.their mother that the elder s'holuld
one day serve the younger. An op-
portunity came for Jacob to secure
a prp!miae from his elder brother Esau
that' he would resign his birthright
to (him. He valued the good things
of the present life.rnore highly than
the gifts of God so be fell in with
Jacob's request and for a mess of pot-
tage gave up the privileges of the
elder brother in a family.
May 15 -Jacob By Bethel.
-Genesis 28:10-17.
-Genesis 29:15.
.,Separated by his own wrong. doing
from his family, Jacob, weary and
uneasy in his mind, lay down to sleep
in the wilderness with a stone for a
pillow= -everything seemingly hard
and stony. While lost in sleep God
revegled •His presence in a dream
showing him 'there was a connection
between earth and heaven over which
good influences passed to the souls
of men; and then he heard God's
voice assuring him that all his life
was under His supervision. Jacob's
spiritual education dated from that
experience and lead to his 'becoming
a Prince in Israel.
May 22 Jacob and Esau Reconciled.
-Genesis 33;1-11.
Ephesians 4:32.
Jacob sent a messenger to make
known to his brother Esau his return
from Mesopotamia, after an absence
of twenty years. Esau did not re-
turn any answer but at the head of
four hundi;ed men set out to meet
Jacob. - Fea'h g that his brother
might still be 'at enmity with him,
Jacob sent out presents to propitiate
him, but Esau, brushing these aside,
ran to meet his father's son and
ern/bracing him, they fell on each
other's necks and were reconciled.
May 29 -Joseph The Dreamer.
-Genesis 37:1-11.
-Romans 12:17.
Dreams, in Biblical times, had
peculiar sigryi,ficanlce-pointling out
God's purposes for man. Joseph not
only dreamed- dreams but on two oc-
casions told them to thelather mem-
bers' of the family. The brothers who
regarded him unfavorably on account
of the father's favoritism towards
him, became more antagonistic after
hearing these dreams. The father re-
buked him for his seeming presump-
tion but all the same "observed the
saying."
June 5 -Joseph the Worker. _
-Genesis 41:46-57.
-I'roverbs 22:29.
Joseph had to wait until the clock
struck the hour of God's appointment
before the door of prosperity opened
to him. He interpreted the King'a
dreams •and gave him wise counsel
with no thought of preferment com-
ing his way. When it did come he
set himself to work to carry out to
the letter the instructions given to
Pharaoh whereby the famine pre-
dicted might be met. . God had not
left him comfortless in his sorrows
and now, in his joys of preferment
and home life God is still given chief
place.
June 12 -Judah the True Brother.
-Genesis 44:18-34.
-Psalm 133:1.
Joseph put his brothers through
!(bitter experiences in order to let
their real natures come to light. In

-Genesis 46:1-7; 28-30; 47:7.
-Exodus 20:12.
On hearing that Joseph was still
alive, Jacob after the first shock had
passed, said he would go• at once to
see hint. On further thought he took
counsel of God as to the wisdomoof
the move. God told him to go and
to fear not. On reaching the coun-
try Josepla met him with great d

Political' Conventions
Haiiu American Cities
Henry L., Mencken has been at-
tending Amlerican political conven-
tions off and on for the past thirty
years, and naturally does not think
very highly '•of them. Nevertheless,
he •says. in . The American Mercury
that if he had a son he, would as-
suredly take him to the perform-
ances about to begin in Ohicago so
that he might see the machinery by
which presidents are nominated and
the people governed. ,Itis, of course,
not precisely, a revelation to be told
that the chief work is done by small
groups of politician's, perhaps in ho-
tel rooms miles from the conven-
tion hall, or "Perhaps in some less re-
putable boudoirs. 'Mr. Mencken says
that most of the delegates do not
know what is going on. Frequently
iihesa press up to the stables where
the reporters are sitting to \ask then
what it is all 'about. Now and -then
the leader of .a state deputation will
force his way into the hall, whisper
a few directions to a lieutenant and
disappear, while the ordinary dele-
gates stare in"bewildernrent. They
remain in this state until the lieu-
tenant tells them what they are to
do- next. Then they do it. The rea-
son for their complete docility and
lack of initiative is to be found in
the fact that, if they are Republi-
cans, most of them are already office
holders who expect te be continued
in office or promoted, and if they are
Democrats they are expecting gov-
ernment employ through the influ-
ence of their state- -leaders.
Mx.' ,Mencken .sketches with his
own inimitable -ardonic humor some
of the salient events in the conven-
tions he has attended, and if the
events are mostly alcoholic the fact
merely adds verisimilitude to the
narration. Especially is he happy
when dissipating the popular illus-
ion that it is an advantage to a city
to be the scene of a national politi-
cal convention. Since it is possible
to induce hotelkeepers and some
other merchants, by a process scatce-
ly 'distinguishable from blackYnail, to
contribute a large part of the formai
expenses of the gathering, it is plain
that someof them at least must ex-
pect or receive immediate returns.
But as the conventions are held
usually in the hottest weather, the
delegates, when sober, are usually in
a state, of acute physical discomfort,
The chairs they have to sit on in the
halls ate hard and narrow. They
are unmercifully gypped at every
turn, and are invariably called upon
to spend 1n•ore money than they ex-
pected. So they depart cursing the
city and spend the next few years
in warning their friends against it.
Particularly bitter have the Re-
publicans been against Cleveland
since the convention of 1924 which
nominated Coolidge. The delegates
and alternates went there expecting
to find the town wide open, since
Coolidge, whom • the , were to nomi-
nate, was ,elreatha ident and they
sl1pr llethat the p hibition agents
vfdel know their uff. 'But Oool-
idge either forgotio give the word'
or refused to do it, and the result
was that a swarm of liquor law en-
forcement officer's descended like
locusts on the town and dried it up.
Even, the local newspapermen could
not get anything to drink. One dis-
tinguished ni4ddle western states -man,
extremely dry by polittpal convic-
tion and personally day to the point
of torment, almost collapsed and
(appealed to .Mr. Mencken for help.
The resourceful .Mencken remember-
ing that Rang Lardner was in an
adjoining room writing a story, hur-
ried the wilting p)rohiabitionist there
and presently he was revived. This
astounding dryness, he ®rays, did
more harm to G7level'and than an
earthquake or a pestilence. It sent

rible stories of the rigors of life in
the town, and roust have cost the
city millioxls of dollars in loss of
tourist trade.
The widespread (beltief m the,
United States ' that Baltimore is so
hot that only ship's firemen and col-
ored clergymen can live there in then
summer was bred of the terrific hot
spell that met the Democrats who
assembled' in 1912 to choose a candi-
date. Nothing but ill fame was de-
rived by New York from the memior-
able deadlock of 1924. "'
The visiting Democrats were ap-
palled at the sights of the. modern
Gamorrah whin met their eyes.
They were scared by the New York
cops and by the swarms of Roman
Catholic priests who were there
'obviously in the interests of Al
Smith, while most of the visiting
brethren, especially those from the
less civilized parts, were present ro
work for McAdoo. They actually be-
lieved that these cohorts at a given
(signal might fall upon them and
ren them limb' from limb. One
e nent southern statesman actually
told'IMe•ncken that this was about to
happen, and was not easily comfort -
led.
In contrast to these horrible pic-
tures it is pleasant to turn to the.
1920 'Democratic, convention in ' .San
Francisco. When the delegates ar-
rived they found the town wide open,
and unlimited first class Bourbon
provided without cost. Maybe these
were the cause's. precedent to the
nomination of Governor (Cox. But ,f
he had a bad time the delegates did
not. In fact, most of them were in
favor of passing a resolution making
San Francisco the permanent site of
their quadrennial deliberations. Who
provided the 'Bourbon, Mr. Mencken
does not know but he suspects that
it was bought by the city proper and
charged to the local ,small -pox hos-
pital. Since that time wistful but
vain efforts have been made to have
the Democratic convention greet in
Detroit, but with Windsor so close,
and bearing in mind what happened
at San Francisco, the party • leaders
have checked them fearful (that the
outcome 's ulght be the, nd �''idilation of

Ontario Plums "For Britain.
The ten per cent. tariff which went
into • effect March 1, 1932, on foreign
plums entering the United Kingdom,
in the opinion "of Andrew Fulton,
fruit growers' representative in Bri-
tain, offers a splendid opportunity to
'the Ontario plum industry to de-
velop this potential export outlet.
In 1930 the United Kingdom impor--
ed 44 million pounds of p'lums,which
is more than twice the annual pro-
duction of Canada; At present the
greater proportion of these plums
comes from European countries. In
Mr. Fulton's opinion there is no
reason Why Ontario should - not
capture a large portion of this
trade. On the basis of prices re-
ceived in recent years, the Ontario•
grower would receive prices ranging
from 315 -cents to 80 cents per 11 -
quart basket .at shipping point. The
Ontario ,varieties that have given
the best satisfaction have been
Grand Duke,' Greengage and (Heine,
claude. In anticipation of meeting
this demand, growers should thin
their plums this summer, if the
crop is heavy, Mr. Fulton advises. In
his opinion, plums can be packed and
shipped successfully only through
central packing plants and plums for
export must be .picked, packed and
pre -cooled in the one day.
- Gentlemen Of Spain
Madrid wakes up very late. Yawn-
ing clerks lay out their goods nn dis-
play at ten o'clock. The first mail is
delivered at 11, but nobody has ap-
peared in any of the ministries by 11
except servants and petitioners from
the provinces. The more punctual of-
ficials arrive on their jobs at about
noon, and since Madrid is a city of
officials it can be said without exag-
geration that life in Madrid does not
begin until 12.
Every Spaniard with a higher edu-
cation despises discipline and the
state equally. "Communism is un-
thinkable among us. We are not
Russians,• we are individualists."
These words were spoken by Senor
Lerroux, and any young lawyer will
use almost the same language. Ev-
erybody advocates freedom of activ-
ity and opposes the state. But this
does not prevent people from want-
ing to have careers as government
officials.
" After the April revolution it ways
impossible to enter any government
office. All the .ministries were be-
sieged by mobs, not of revolution-
ists presenting strong demands, but
of . polite applicants hoping for posi-
tions. All those who had ever yearn-
ed for public office became 'loyal re-
publicans. They wanted you to
know that they had not•accepted of-
fice before because of their unbend-
ing convictions, but now they were
ready to serve the republic. When
it became known, however, that the
former employees were not to be
dismissed and that no jobs were op-
en, the crowd muttered in disgust,
"What kind of a revolution is this?"
'Most of the government officials
and lawyers are men of some brilli-
ance but of rather limited knowledge.
'They know all about the heroic deeds
of bull fighters and are more than:
,skilful at whispering poetic words
into the ears of the senoritas they
meet, But one jurist who worked
for the Ministry of Justice was really
astonished to hear 'that there was a
country called Holland. He had
heard the word- but thought • it re-
ferred' to a mountain pastil. Another
asked me if Lenin were still ruling
Russia' and refused to • believe me
when I told him Lenin had been dead
for eight years.
The state attorneys and officials do
not make much money, but condi-
tions in (Madrid are such that one
can lead an easy life on practically
nothing. A caballero spends ail day
id the cafes, drinking a glasas of ver-
mouth as an aperitif, and consuming•
great quantities of olives, little crabs
and potato ch pe. All these gentle-
men are elegantly dressed. The
streets are full of hawkers sellitsg

caballero changes his cravat every
day. Nor does he forget his shoes.
The moment a caballero has two copa
per coins in his pocket he summons
a shoeblack and closes his eyes with
joy, as if he would like to spend the
whole day having his shoes shined.
Indeed, when he is rich he has them
shined every hour, and in the early
Morning when the carefree caballero
is wandering home he often has his
shoes polished agail} one last time.
'But whereas Englishmen often shave
twice a day, the caballero is quite
careless about his face, often not
shaving it for three days on end. His
'shoes, however, are more important
and mustalways have a shine.
. The married caballero, of course
has a home and numerous children
He spends a great deal of time in his
house, where his wife cooks cocido an.
darns stockings. But who his wit
is and where his home is even hi
best friends don't know, for hom
and family are as private a matte
in Spain as- an unmade bed in an
other country. The caballero sees hi
friends only in clubs and cafes.
Spanish clubs bear small resem
blance to those of England. Th
Englishmen go to their clubs to keep
silent and their clubs are dark, silen
places. The Spanish clubs, •_on the
other band, leek like.shops with big
windows in which Iive caballeros are
on exhibit like merchandise, sitting
in their chairs . and 'looking out on
the street. It is a•kind of bourgeois
window display. 'Often a row of
chairs is lined . up outside •the club
building on the street, where mem
bers sit and look about them;. But
-meditation does not prevail over con
versation, and all Spanish clubs are
terribly noisy. During the first few
days after the revolution, the chairs
in front of the- clubs were empty
The caballeros were not quite .sur
what the word "republic" meant, but
they soon recovered their poise an
resumed their old habit of sitting out-
doors when the sun is shining and
behind glass windows when it -rains
The more noble the caballero the
less inclined he is to work. Such
Wren is a true .individualist. In • ere
of the newspapers, El Liberal, there
is a column of aristocratic want ads
of which the following is typical: "
young man of noble birth is looking
for. a feminine patron of the same
age with a kind heart. 150 pesetas a
month." And here is another: "A
dark-haired ,marl of 24 is seeking an
attractive but'no longer young lady
friend. He is of moderate means
and urgently needs 125 pesetas."
When a government official has
lost money at gambling he often
tries to make good this loss by' ac-
cepting bribes. The police have par-
ticularly good opportunities when,
for instance, two automobiles collide,
for in that case the motorist who
pays the larger fine will be consider-
ed innocent. The municipal officials
also do well for themselves. Every-
body knows how a certain Madrid
politician who was in charge of build-
ing new public toilets became rich.
He would notify the owner of some
fine house that he was unfortunate-
ly going to have to put up a toilet
beside his garden gate.
In Madrid the pawnshop plays a
most important role. One day you
redeem your pledge at a pawnshop,
'The next you bring, your watch, ov-
ercoat, or counterpane back again.
Everyone lives from hand to mouth.
Olives, coffee with milk, a new neck-
tie. Life is easy and empty. The
offices that have just opened close
their doors before you can turn a-
round, but theaters and movies are
crowded. The six o'clock show' is'
the matinee. The real performan e
begins at 11 in the evening. At two
in the morning the streets are full
'of people. The caballeros promen-
ade, pay compliments to the beauti-
ful ladies and criticize Senor Mena,saying that 'Manta is an abler man.
The caballero is thoroughly • famil-
iar with boredom but he does not
want anyone to catch hint yawning.
His ` favorite expression is to kill
time." He does not drink coffee to
enjoy it, but merely to kill time.
Time is an enemy. Most of the cab-
alleros are very busy. They contt'ol
three of the ministries, write in sen
newspapers, work in 16 different po-
litical parties and are in love with
many different women. They•haven't
a moment to themselves. When-- one ,
caballero agrees to meet another at
five he arrives at seven.. He couldn't
come sooner, he was too busy, though
he was actually sitting in a nearby: I
cafe killing time.
