self-assurance, they said, that they
could. Christ’s cup was martyrdom
and at this time James and John
were not equal to martyrdom. “No
one knows how he will bear up un

John, it must be said that they re
deemed themselves afterwards.

JESUS FACES THE CROSS
(International Uniform Sunday
School Lesson, May 7)
Golden Text
‘And it came to pass when the time
was come that he should be received
up, lie steadfastly set his face to go
to Jerusalem.”—Luke 9:'51.
LESSON PASSAGE—Mark 10:132-45
“Small service is true service while
it lasts:
Of humblest friends, bright Crea
ture! scorn not one;
The Daisy, by the shadow that it
casts,
Protects the lingering dew drop
from the Sun.”
To a Child: Written in her Album
—Wordsworth
Forsceing The Worst, 32-34
Jesus was on his way to Jerusal
em. Deep in thought he walked
ahead of his disciples. In distance
he was but a few feet away from
them, but in moral purpose he was
continents removed. The separa
tion was not one of miles but of
moods. Jesus knew full well the
treatment awaiting him. His zero
hour did not take him toy surprise.
It was an act of sublimest courage
when he steadfastly set his face to
go to Jerusalem.
Forewarned is forearmed. Jesus
shared with his disciples his predic
tions of his fate. He wished to
give them opportunity also for men
tal and moral preparation. He
would not allow his disciples to go
to the Passover Feast thinking that
it was an occasion for celebrating a
great national festival; he deliber-
tely announced to them what was
going to happen to himself, fore
telling that he was to be betrayed
and killed. As the discipes saw the
look upon the Saviour’s face and
heard his words they were amazed
and became afraid.
When Friends Disappoint, 35-40
While Jesus had been predicting
his death, two of his disciples had
scarcely listened; they were thinking
of themselves and making plans for
their advancement. James and John,
the sons of Zebedee. came to Jesus
and tried to lead him to pledge
himself to grant their wish before
he knew their request. He asked
them graciously what they wanted
and they replied asking that they
might sit one on his left hand and
one on his right hand in his glory.
Peter all along had been the spokes
man of the twelve, and it may be
that the two brothers resented rhe
prominence of Peter and thought in
this way to get ahead of him. This
request of James and John showed
how little they had grasped the
teaching of the Master. For many
months he had been sharing his
thoughts with them. They had
heard his Sermon on the Mount, but
their minds had not grasped the
spirit of the Beautitudes.
Although two of his closest friends
were grievously disappointing him
Jesus showed no anger. He was
more concerned about them than for
himself. He asked them if they
could drink the cup of which, he was
to drink, be baptized with the bap
tism of suffering with, which he was
When the ten disciples heard
about the selfish ambition of James
and John they were very angry.
Their displeasure was not so much
because James ^and John had failed
to enter sympathetically into the
mood of their Master, but because
these two privileged disciples had
thought to steal a march on the
other ten. They had the decency
not to quarrel in the presence of
their Leader. Possibly he heard
their angry voices and he called
them to him. and gave to them his
great speech about service. Out of
evil good may come. The ambitious
request of the sons of Zebedee was
the occasion of his words: “Who
soever of you will be the chiefest
shall be servant of all.”
Jesus 'Said that personal ambition
was a 'pagan ideal. The Gentile
rulers sought lordship. They wanted
place and power. He might also
have said that the Jewish leaders
were guilty of this same selfish am
bition. The disciples .themselves at
times hoped that Jesus would be a
great leader setting up a kingdom
on earth, overthrowing the Roman
Empire and making the Jewish
people dominant. Jesus absolutely
repudiated this Jewish ambition to
conquer and rule the pagan world
His ideal was, “Great servant-great
est slave.” As a student John R
Mott had the expectation of a suc
cessful career in law. One day the
spirit of God spoke to him through
this verse of scripture: “Seekest thou
great things for thyself? seek them
not.” From that day to this his
life has been ■ devoted to Christian
service.
The Soil of Man, 45
It was an empty assertion when
Jesus said, “I am among you as one
who serves.” Christ’s whole life
was sacrificial. When he said that
the way to greatness was through
service, he was not talking idle
theory. He had tried it but and
was able to give this teaching as a
personal testimony. What a con
trast to the self-seeking of the dis
ciples!
Jesus is the Son of iMan. He is
representative or typical or ideal
man. He came not to be adminis
ter unto, but to minister, and io
give his life a ransom for, many. A
ransom was the price paid to set a
slave free. Christ was willing to
give his life as a ransom to free the
people from their sins. He was will
ing to wash his disciples’ feet to
teach them the spirit of lowly ser
vice. Whether teaching by the way
side, healing in the sickroom, pray
ings in the garden, or dying on the
Cross, Christ thought not of himself
but of service to fellow-men, whom
he loved and whom he asserted God
surpremely loved
Questions Discuss
1. Why was/Jesus so patient when
his disciples were slow to under
stand ?
2. Knowing that he faced certain
death, why did Jesus go to Jerusal
em?
3. In what ways is ambition le
gitimate for a Christian?
4. Would the ideal of service have
become so popular of late, if it were
not thought of as a means of pro
fit?
5. How far do we. judge people
by ownership?
6. How did Christ minister to
mankind?
7. What is the true goal of life?
Why do we so often reject it?
Neuritis Hampered Her
In writing of the pain and incon
venience she suffered from neuritis,
this woman tells also how <she rid
herself of it:—
“I have been using Kruschen Salts
for neuritis, and it certainly has the
most wonderful effect. My knees
were vdry painful, and it became al
most impossible for me to kneel
As I do all my own housework, you
will appreciate what it means to me.
Two months ago I began using Krus
chen, and I certainly would not be
without a bottle in the house for
anything. I consider Kruschen is
worth its weight in 22-carat gold.”—
G. M. W.
Neuritis, like rheumatism, lum
bago, and sciatica, is caused by de
posits ,of needle-pointed, flint-hard
uric acid crystals, which pierce the
nerves and cause those stabbing
pains, Kruschen breaks up these de
posits of torturing crystals and con
verts them into harmless solution
which is promptly removed through
<the natural channel—the (kidneys.
And because Kruschen keeps the in
side so regular—so free from fer
menting waste matter—no such body
poisons as uric acid ever get the
chance to accumulate again.

ANOTHER SETTLEMENT
By the terms of a consent judg
ment in the case of Wilson C. Haw
kins of Seaforth, vs. Olive E. Hunt
er and W G. Hawkins, executors of
the estate of Joseph Hawkins, plain
tiff receives $2000 and costs, the
counter claim to be referred to the
Local Master at Goderich for trial
and report.
W. C. Hawkins, son of the late Jo
seph Hawkins, purchased his father’s
farm on the 6th of Usborne in 1918
and gave a $3,000 diortgage in part
payment. On removing to Seaforth
to enter the, draying business he re
sold his farm to his father for $8,-
000, the mortgage being forgiven
by the father. Another mortgage
for $3,000 was placed on the farm
by Hawkins senior, the proceeds of
which were to be paid to the plain
tiff and a promissory note was given
for the balance of $2,000. The note
was never executed nor was payment
defended. Joseph Hawkins died on
January 16th, 1927, and a probate
of his will was granted to his widow
Sarah Hawkins, on February 2i3ra
of the - same year. Olive E. Hunter
and W. C. Hawkins signed and de
livered the promissory note for $2,-
000 as security for payment of the
balance of the purchase price of the
farm, which had become due upon
the death of the widow. The note
is held to be valid.
The counter claim, is for $3,200
damaged for alleged failure on the
part of W. C. Hawkins to accept an
offer from William P. Stephen for
the farm, located in Usborne. Ah
accounting of all monies and other
relief is asked.
There never was in the werld two
opinions alike,
