LESSON FOR AUGUST 7, 1932 • Lesson Topic—The Ten. Command- ments.- Lesson Passage -Exodus 20:1-M. Golden Text -Deuteronomy 6:5. ' The Ten Convmandments. hold a conspicuous position in that prolong- ed revelation of Himself, of alis char- acter, His will and His relations to mankind, which God matte to the Jew- ish eeeeple. They can; therefore, nev- er •beoome obsolete. The changing circumstances of the human race can - the Jews to ,do this. They had manes traditions of Divine revelations made to their aneestor+s. They might have attempted to perpetuate in a visible and permanent form the impressions which 'Hlis supernatural acts had made upon their imagination and their hearts. They actually did it, for the golden ealf was not intended to represent any false god, any deity worshipped by heathen races, but Jehovah 'Himself. It was the sym- bol of the God who had brought them out of EgYipt, The whole history of Christendom is a demonstration of the peril and ruin which come from any attempt to supplement by art and by stately and im;preseive rites" the revelation which God has made of himself in Christ. ,,We may transgress the Third Com- mandment in many ways; by perjury, by swearing, by the practice of 'find- ing material for jesting in Holy Scripture; by the habit of scoffing at those who profess to live a religious 'life, and taking every opportunity of sneering: at their imperfections. In. the Fourth Commandment we are enjoined to keep one day in seven holy. It is called the ,Sabbath Day and the purpose of it was expressly defined to the Jews and the manner in which it was to be kept was very distinctly stated. The only similarity between the Lord's Day which is now observed and the Jewish Sabbath is that both re- cur once a week, and that both are religious festivals. Nehemiah speaks frequently and with great emphasis ole the Sabbath as a gift of God which their fathers had lightly esteemed, and which the new generation was bound most fondly to esteem and cherish. His words and acts were 'abused by the Jews who lived between his age and that of our Lord's nativity, and when Christ came, the Sabbath itself, all its human graciousness, all its Divine reasonableness, were becoming each day more obscured. Jesus. as the mediator, .declared Himself to be the Lord of the Sab- bath, and proved Himself to.be so by turning what the Jews had misused.' into a blessing. God rests; therefore He would have man rest. God works; therefore He would have man work. Man cannot rest truly unless he re- m'enebers his relation to God, who rests. The keeping of the first day of the week is.a privilege,'not just a mere duty.—(Conciens.e41 from R. W. Dale's 'Writings; on The Ten Com- mandments ). not destroy the significance and worth of any institutions or facts which re veal the life of God. The Ten •Commandments rest on the principle that God claims author ity over the moral life of pian. He clairned that authority in the earlies times. He claims it still. There can be no doubt that God intended that these commandments should be kept. • . _ This may seem an unnecessary oh servation; but there • ere religious people who have auite a differen theory than thins about the intention of Divine laws. They suppose tha the commandments of God ate prin eipaily intended to bring us to a sense of our guilt, and to :sugges' to us the sins for which we have to ask God's forgiveness. Th.e though of aeeually obeying them, and obey ing them :perfectly is not uppermos in our minds. Before God gave these command ments to the Jewish people, He wrought a magnificent series of mir acies to effect their emancipation from miserable slavery and to punish their oppressors He first made them free, and then gave them the law. The First C'otnnmiandm.ent condemns the worshipping of .false gods; the second condemns the making of any image or symbol even of the true God.

ASK YOUR DEALER WORLD MISSIONS For Which the Church'' Stands. The Rev. D. N. McLachlan, Secre- tary of the Board of Evangelism andii Social Service, in a recently issued' document, says: "The Church stands for certain well-alefined things about which there is no doubt: "1. Worship.—In their own way men are always seeking the presence of God. The Church can assist in this great quest. 'Where two or' three are gathered together in My, name, there aim. I.. "2. Inspiration. — The Chu r c h through worship, instruction and fel- lowship, is constantly . pricking the consciences of men into noble think- ing and living. "3. Instruction.—.The Church in its pulpit and school constitutesone of the, greatest teaching agencies for -mankind, making known the will of God, "4. ,;Friendship.—Surely this is one of the great needs of the hour. The Church provides the facilities for de- veloping@ sympathy,, counsel and help. It may become the great school of friendship. • `s5. •Service:—The work of the church is to minister. Where the in- dividual is trained to ' discover and practise right relations between ,him- self and God, he will be dissatisfied until right relations obtain leetween man and man. "6. The Sense of World Mission. —The Chureh is a great brotherhood, includilrg the whole of mankind re- gardless of color or ereed." * * * "The greatest spiritual power and efficiency of the missionary enter- prise abroad is dependent on the spiritual life of the Church at home.

Mott. If Hitler Comes. To Power As a result of the last Prussian election Hitler's Nazis, with their Nationalist allies, now count close to 200 votes in the 422 votes of the Prussian Diet. In this election the shipwreck of the parties which ruled Germany from the making of the Republic to the present hour was dis- closed. Republican Germany has succumb- ed to reaction. It is .plain that the Hitlerites by refusing all compromise may evade the responsibility of power for a little longer, which is their ob- vious strategy. What is not to -be questioned is that they will certainly come to control at no distant date. But what does this control mean? In the United States and Britain there has been a general tendency to ben lieve that the -events of Italy would repeat themselves and that Hitler like Mussolini would prove cautious in action-frightering in phrase. But conditions are different: Mussolini was faced by local disorders, not with the conditions of a defeated country bound to the fulfillment of s reaty terms: Albove all Mussolini was a great leader, while Hitler is only s brilliant agitator. Hitler must take over control of a country in the very depths of a de- pression without precedent. Nearly six million Germans are unemployed. The efforts ti balance the -budget have resulted in taxation severe be- yond historical memory. The very .limns of exacti5n have been reachea, but without relief. To the gold ,,tan. dai•d Gerfnany holds only by a tin thread. The flight of German capi- tal from the mark has never been arrested, German confidence hr the nation never restored.

Safe and Simple Dome Recipe Keeps Stomach in Fine Condition If you area victim of Stomach Troubles —Gas, Sourne Pam or Bloating—you may have quick and certain relief by following this simple advice. Don't take .strong medicine$, artificial di eetants or pull down your system with starvation diets. For within reason most folks may eat what they like if they will keep their stomach free from souring acide that hinder or paralyze the work of digestion. And the best and easiest way to do this is to follow every meal with a tea- spoonful of Bisurated Magnesia—a plea- sant, harmless, inexpensive, form of Mag- nesia that promptly neutralizes acidity and keeps your stomach sweet and clean. A week's trial of Bisurated Magnesia, which any good druggist can supply at trifling cost, should quickly convince you that 90 pei cent. of ordinary stomach distress is absolutely unnecessary. ty with fixed principles, but ••1 mob united by an intricate mesh o.t paa- eions and hatreds. His platform is the most extraordinary farrago of noneense conceivable, His follower' are acid together by a common revolt against the existing order, but com- munist and capitalists, nonarchist and revolutionary are all included. The advent of Hitler to power will multiply the obstacles to any econ- omic or financial improvement in Germany because it will accelerate the flight of German capital from the mark. Far from encouraging nec- es,ear'y foreign loans, it will intensify the eagerness of the unhappy lenders of the past to recover their capital. Hitler has promised his followers na- tional health,wealth, and happiness. But his coming can only ;accentuate poverty. All this on the domestic side. In .the field of foreign affairs the pic- ture is even' more sombre. Hitler has told the people that to vote for him is to insure the prompt return of the Polish Corridor. put the Cor- ridor is Polish territory •and the Pol- ish people are not only resolved to fight for it, but are sere of French support. Mitler has 'promised the 'union of Austria and Germany, but Czechoslovakia is prepared to fight that and she, too, is certain of French aid. Hitler has promised the repudiation of reparations payments. France will not listen to any such unilateral scrapping of treaty obligations; and on this point. Sir John .•.{Simon recent- ly gave publicexpression to a con- forming opinion. Once Germany has resorted to any such action, the last possibility of F1•anco.Germ'an co-op- eration disappears. Once Hitler comes' to power either in the Reich or in Prussia a state of tension must exist along all the'fron- tiers where Germany joins France, Poland, and Czechoslovakia. 'The Poles fearful of a ceup•-in'the Cor- ridor; the Czechs dreading a new ad- venture in Anscluss; the French, id; entifying in Hitler pronunciamentos the prelude to a new attack, will mount guard on their exposed fron- tie"rs and Europe will return to the atmosphere of an armed camp. Hitler can bring no relief to Ger- many. And if he fails, what them? Communism? It is fear of• the • eve entual . coming of Communism which lurks in the background of the pres- ent apprehension of the immediate effects of a Hiti'e' triumph. Even in Paris. Warsaw, and "Prague, where the menace of Hitler is real, the lat- er consequences of Hitler rule and failure are exciting even greater ap- prehension. But there is one aspect of the mat- ter which should command far more attention in America than it has. The arrival of Hitler to power means the end of international co-operation on the Continent of Europe for an indefinite period of time. It means the expansion of the present tragic misery in the Danubian area. It promises the final collapse not alone of the financial structure of Austria and Hungary, now disastrously strioken, but it means- a fresh •col- lapse in Germany. Hitlerian Ger- many will' be almost encircled by the bayonets of fearful . nations and rig- idly isolated, so far as foreign loans are eopcerned,.by the fears of all in- vesting countries. It is nevertheless clear that -Ger- many' will .probably ,make the danger- ous experiment of Hitler control. The pace of the progress of this reac-. denary' party has reached a point 'where all hope of arresting it must be , abandoned. The majority of the German people, desperate by reason of their own misery and hopeless in the face of the existing order, heal definitely •set their faces toward an experiment which has its origin in passion and not in ,principle. Deep in the German- soul lies the conviction that the rest of the world cannot afford to see Germany col- lapse. Theirs is the belief that Bri- tain and the United States, particu- larly by reason of their great finan- cial com'mibrnents in the Reich, will intervene to save the German people. This conviction has dominated all German action since the death of Stresemann and the coming of Hit- ler. To -day many of the german people believe that the arrival of Hitler to power would insure a strong•, Ger- many taking a high tone in dealing with her neighbors and conquerors. Hitler and his fellow orators have taught millions that they have been betrayed by weak statesmen and can be rescuer by strong voices. This m�najority of the German people, conte Mnced that nothing can be "worse than the existing situation, have re- jected their present leaders; aban- doned ban- d ned republican principles 'and set their faces toward Fascism. One of the most striking conse- quence's of German developments has been the emergence of a French state of mind. All France hae been roused by German events. All France is ready to unite in support of a pol- icy to defend French security and preserve French treaty rights. .A government of national safety could emerge over night from the parties in the Chamber. The Union Sacree of the, war could be renewed at any hour in which the German peril took on an, imminent character in French eyes. The vast majority of the French people believe that in Ger- many's present state nothing can be done with her—nothing political, eco- nomic, financial.... German repudiation of the financial clauses of the Treaty of Versailles will not provoke any French military action like the.,,Euhr.. As long as the Hitler crowd refrain from aggressive action at the frontier, France will continue a policy of watchful wait- ing. But an invasion of the Polish Corridor or Upper Silesia would mean war. France and her allies believe war is possible because they sincerely fear the possibility of a final gam- bler's throw of the Hirlerites.

Now such a man is looked upon by many of his fellow men as one of fortune's fav- orites, Generally speaking, the inhabitants of Vermont have always made a liv- ing—and that's about all. They did it during the• so-called period of pros- perity; t,,11,ey are.cleing it now. It is a kind of living which differs from that in the cities. It follows a more even line; a line without sharp rises and deep depressions. During the high tide of prosperity which swept over much of the country, Vermont's way a living looked unambitious, provincial, poor. Now it looks good, What slakes it different? An answer came this morning in a local paper. There was an advertise- ment which read like, this: WANTED.—To exchange a second hand Chevrolet for a fanuly cow. Exchange. Let's look this man Exchange up. His case may tela, considerable about the way Vermonters live. .. He was born on a mtain farm in Vermont 35 years ago. He grew up with responsibilities in the way of chores, and by the time he wassix- teen he was an important member of the family as a producer of the ne- cessities of life. He never handled :coney becagse there was little of it u'ed. 'He did handle tools and seeds and crops. He went to school down t"e road and learned to read, write, figure, and enough about the world to fol'ow its life in the paper his father took. He went into the army with an- because of the chance to see life. while he was overseas his father died .uddenly, the farm was sold and Ex- change came into possession of $2000, his share of his father's estate. That was thirteen years, ago. On the edge of a village of about 800 inhabitants he bought 27 acres, a tory and a half house, two barns and a chicken house, all in good shape for $2,000—$1,200 down, the rest on mortgage, The next year he brought his bride there. • In the twelve years since they . have, beside rearing two boys, very much improved the build- ings. They have cleaned up the apple orchard and it now pays a profit. They have also paid off the mortgage.. Exchange is handy with tools and has always had some carpentering to do in the village and on neighboring farms. He saves some money -each month, no matter how little it may Se. Every year he and his family get the larger part of their living from the farm. There are hens, and Mrs. Exchange sells broilers to the summer families; she also sells eggs" when prices are good. When they are cheap she "puts them down" to, use for cooking, She also cans en- ough fowl to allow at least a meal a week during the winter. Of course they raise all their own vegetables, canning the surplus supply for win- ter. Until 199 they kept a cow, but Exchange had a good offer for her just at a time when he found the milking a little too much in addition to his other work. Now about that car. Of course they wanted one for some time, but they waited`till they had the cash and until the spending of it would curtail no real necessity. No instalment buy- ing for there. Finally they bought a cal' three years old, with little mile- age on it. It had the Wear but not the style and'Exchange paid $150 for it. That and a new kitchen range were his chief extravagances during his era of greatest prosperity. He banked the rest of his prosperity in a good savings bank. This year his cash income has al- most ceased except for some wood sold during the winter. So we get to the advertisement quoted in the be- ginning. Has cash income having largely stopped, he proceeds at once to get rid of the car which will run on' nothing he can produce. It requires cash to buy gas and oil. He can get along without; a ear. ' Inn fact the wf,uld feel uneomrfortable riding a- round in something he could not af- ford. That'is tradition. It is Vet- mont, Not only does Exchange get rid of 'Mhe cash -eater but he exchanges it for a producer—a plioducer of things which will further cut off his demand for cash. The cow will out butter from the grocer's bill. She'will also furnish fertilizer ter the land. Here then is the fundamental dif- ference between Exchange and . his brother in the city. Cash is not ab- solutely needed by Exchange. eIt is needed by his urban brother. ,rile • Inning Vueai Iott SIDNEY FOX— Vniver.ol Pictures star REMEMBER Kellogg's Corn Flakes dur- ing your holiday.

Exchange, however, can raise what he needs to rupporc life, and ha taking his axe and going to his weodlot he getsanyear's supply of fuel without 'spending a cent of eavh. Of course he has a feeling of security which his city brother cannot know. Perhaps the difference in surround- inge makes some difference in feeling. Surrrrrrnded on all sides by things which man has built, • all proclaiming the power of his dollar, one must feel the omnipotence of money. When the money market is in confusion and the. business structure shows itself to be far from everlasting, one must feel that the bottom has dropped out of everything. But when one's out- look is on high mountains and deep valleys, which have been ages in the making, man and his dollars seem less important in the scheme of things. When the market falls the countryman sees no• sign of it on his landscape. These everlasting hills cannot fail to inspire confidence, to give strength. It might seem that life in the Ver- mont hills was •all work and no play. Well, let us see just what --the coun- tryman does for fun. His boys ben long to the 4-H Club and always join in its outings. There is a daily swim in the creek =on warm days and some ball playing in the early evening just before dark. Three or four 'times during the summer Exchange himself will knock off for a half-day to see elle (village ball -team play one of the neighboring towns. He never fails to go to the Country Fair in autursnta taking the family and making a daps` of it. Then he plays a second cornet in the Citizens Band, and makes sev- eral excursions with it to nearby towns. During the winter there are frequent suppers at the church' and as !series of lectures and entertainments from a Lyceum Bureau, under the. auspices of, the Grange. Last winter - there was a Washington celebrations 'given in the town hall, in which the Exchange family all took part. The boys danced in the minuet. Their mother was Martha 'Custis, and Ex change himself played in the orches- tra. The doctor, the lawyer, the merchant, farmers, laborers, me- chanics,—all classes were in the east_ The entertainment itself required a. minimum of cash outlay and derivesi most of its fun from the labor put in- to it.- It would be unfair to leave out mention of schools, for in Vermont life education plays a very import- ant •part. Exchange and his wife are more interested in their boys' schooling than in anything else. Thep' will have all the training the schools. can give them, and in addition will have 'the invaluable education whiche comes from working with their par- ents in making a living. If success is ,measured in tall• build- ings or in dollars, perhaps the mem of Vermont are unambitious. Bede certain • it is that this way of life, which for generations has been sus- tained by the land, gives ai security► and a peaee, which the fluctuationee of the stock market can neither give~ 'nor take away, amist 0, 7 "Bring Dora too- we'll pJ.ay tennis" Low evening rates on Slation-to-Stag tion Calls begin 7.00 p.m. Still lower night rates at 8.30 p.m. All Ruth's friends in the city felt sorry for her when she married Dick and settled down in a small town thirty miles out.
