CONVERTED AND COM* MISSIONED Acts. 9:1-31. 22:3*21; Galatians, 1:11*17; I. Timothy, 1.18-17 Golden Text I was not disobedient ‘unto heavenly vision.—-Acts 26:19. A man who was ready to others of his own race and religion because they had accepted a new re­ ligion was suddenly, instantaneous­ ly, so changed that he was ready to die for that new religion, and event­ ually he did so. This man was one of the intellec­ tual giants of all history. Brought up in a universally centre and living in an age of intellectual greatness, he was in personal touch with the great minds of the day and with real culture and literature. His convic­ tions were rooted and grounded in deepest study and research. Of tlhe cataclysmilc change that occurred ‘in his life, some modern teachers have actually sUid thag it was the result of an epileptic fit! Attacks of epi­ lepsy do not, however, produce men and writings that change the course of the history of nations and em­ pires; and this is what Paul’s con- verion did. The history of the world for nineteen centuries has been radically different because of what happened to Paul in a mom­ ent’s time, as he was on his way to Damascus to persecute and- kill more Christians. He wrote a large -part of tihe New Testament, which is the “best seller” among all the b’ooks published today and in all time. . The lesson passages .give us two accounts of Paul’s amazing exper­ ience. The first' is by Luke, who has been proved to be a historian of the highest rank and of impeccable accuracy. The second is in Paul’s own words, when he made his de­ fense before an infuriated Jewish mob bent upon his other accounts in from Paul’S letters, 'When his name strict and zealous Pharisee was raged by 'the new teaching tlrat gaining headway among *his fellow Jews; the teaching1 that -one Jesus of Nazareth, who had been condemned by the highest court of the Jews i’and executed as a dangerous crim­ inal, was actually the Sdn of God and tihe divinely promised Messiah of Israel. -Saul hounded to death many Jews who were accepting the new teaching. But on a certain day when the sun was shining with all the intensity of an Oriental noon, he was suddenly, overwhelmed- by, a light brighter than that of the sun, and he fell to the earth as he heard,' a voice, “.Saul, Saul, why persecut- eth thou Me?”. In bewilderment the stricken* man asked, “Who art thou, Lord?” It is .to be noted that Saul recognized the speaker, who­ ever he was, as his Lord, one -who was speaking with authority. The answer came: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.” ’Saul had been fighting God. This is to “kick against the pricks” in­ deed. and Saul, as .a zealous Jew, must have many uneasy and unhappy moments in spite of the fact that he was waging persecution in the name of good conscience. Now he speaks in still further submission: “Lord',’ what wilt thou have me to do?” go op into the City there “it shall be thou must do.” Saul was blind from the earth. Little wonder! No man can see Christ without losing his natural vi^on. . The men of his party led him by the .hand to Da­ mascus, and there a disciple napied Ananias received hiip. . For •'Lord had appeared to Ananias alsi and had told his to look u.p this Saul of ‘ Tarsus. As Ananias ' tested because Saul was such a re- sentless -enemy of Christ and His disciples, the answer came from the Lord: “Go thy way, for he is a -chos­ en vessel unto Me, to bear My .name before his Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel; for I will show fhim lww great things he must suffer for My name's sake.” The whole story is a wonderful and thrilling narratice, and should be read through In the four -differ­ ent passages included in this lesson. Ananias -obeyed Christ, and Saul re­ ceived his Sight again, and was, fill­ ed With the Holy Ghost.” He began preacihiug, ‘^Christ in the synagogues that He is the Son of* God.” - All his intellectual powers ana natural abil­ ities' were laid at the feet of Christ, and God used them mightily. The Jews were unwilling to believe and receive their own Messiah were now enraged at Saul and plotted to ItiT him, and Jae bad to escape from Da­ mascus by niight to slave his life* Later -on, when, he had returned to Jerusalem, he was threatened with .mob violence by the Jews and was rescued only by tlie prompt ae- thm of the chief captain with sol­ diers and centurions.' He appealed to Caesar as a Roman citizen ho might be fairly tried. tn his letter to the Galatians, (his name was now changed Satti) told of having received’ the full revelation of the Gospel of sal* execution, this lesson Still are this out- was He was told to of Damascus and told thee what the man pro­ that Paul from vation from Jobus Christ Himself. He had not conferred with fellow* CUristkins, oi? even with the apostles of the Lord gt Jerusalem, but he had withdrawn into the desert of Arabia, and alone with God, ha had received from’fhis Lqi’A the full unfolding of the marvelous Gospel of grace, by which a,lone sinners 'are saved. To young Timothy, his son in the faith, Paul wrote about his conver­ sion; and he called himself “a blas­ phemer, and a persecutor, and in­ jurious,” Those who are really sav­ ed never make light of their past sips. Indeed, it is only after we are saved that we begin to realize, “the exceeding sinfulness pf sin.” .ft is to Timothy that Paul wrote the im­ mortal words: “This is a saying, and worthy of all tion, that Christ Jesus came world to save sinners; of atm chief.” faithful aiccapta* into the whom I EXETER OLD RQX IS CANADIAN REPRESENTATIVE AT PEACE GATHERING Case R. Howard, gives address at Unveiling of Perry Memorial The Rush-B'agot agreement sign­ ed by the United States and Great Britain in 1818 which provided for the abolition of naval disarmament on the Great Lakes, was described as “the most practical instrument in existence for insuring national safe­ ty,” by«Case R. Howard, member of the board of governors and chairman of the finance committee of tlhe Canadian Club of New York and an Exeter Old- Boy who officiated at the unveiling of the Perry's Victory Memorial and Peace Tablet at Put- in-Bay, Ohio on Friday, July 31st. Here, he emphasized, was a treaty entered into 113 years ago which applies as pertinently now as then, “guaranteeing harmony by tlhe slcrapping, of war weapons.” Mr. Howard, often described- as “the special Canadian ambassadoi* at large,”, is the manager of the foreign business department of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, New York City. In the last few years he has delivered in the United ’'States and abroad a number of addresses -on Canadian-American relations, on which he is considered an authority, before such organizations. as the United States Chamber of Com'merce, International Chamber of Commerce, National Foreign Trade Council and others. 'He was, appointed as the Canadian representative at Friday’s function by the Canadian Club at the request of Premier F. B. Ben­ nett, of Canada. Mr. How-ad began his career with the Exeter Times and afterwards entered the local branch of the Canadian Bank of Compierce/ Other principal speakers at the ceremonies, which, jointly commem­ orated the victory of .ships under the command of Lieutenant OliV'er Haz­ ard Perry over a British squadron on Lake Erie in 1813, and the Can­ adian Lakes disarmament treaty of 1818, were Governnor White, of Ohio and-"Senator Hamilton Lewis, of Illinois. “.The dedication of this memorial and tablet must yield to the men and- women of Canada and the'Unit­ ed States, who take note of its true significance, an unusual measure of pride and happiness,” said Mi’. Ho­ ward. “As Americans or Canadians we have foregathered first to com­ memorate more than 100 years of peace -between our peoples; second, to honour a hero of the past for his deeds" of valor and third, to do hom­ age to the patriots of our nations who lie beneath this shaft. ViAs I stand Here that feeling of pride And happiness which all of you must feel swells within me. Pride, because as a Canadian representing ‘sentiment, in that freehand vigorous country, I can with you turn back the pages of history and find delight in t'h.e deeds of valoi' inspired by love of country. Yet I, too, can bear in mind with you that had the same wise counsel been brought to bear, had the same intelllgenlce and far seeing statemanshiip prevailed which 'resulted in the peace treaty of 1814 and the disarmament agree-, ment of 1818, the conflict of 1812- 1814 would have been avoided. “This is no vain regret. Thou­ sands of out people- gave their lives for what each side deemed to be a just cause, and thousands more- suf­ fered hardships and persecutions that were akin to death. Out of that struggle grew this document, an* ex­ periment, of courage and nobility which, tested through more than a century of time, has pr-Oved to( the world that the most complete guar­ antee for the .peace of nations is abandonment of the attire aiid the trappings of war. “For more than- a century the people of Canada and of the United States have lived side by side in a security­ world trust, which borne Speak spring freedom of government, the person­ al liberty of action, the rights- of the individual and the sacredness of person and property which. are your heritage are ours too, no less and Ho more. , “There are 2,500,000 Canadian born, who have become assimilated into yoyr national life and, that is approximately one-quarter of the total population of Canada. There are In Canada perhaps two millions or more of American people.

What to us, ate the bickerings of' political leaders, the complaints voiced by sectional Interests? We have disregarded and will continue to ignore the nar­ row prejudices, the embittered con- temiplatlon of ancient squabbles, of real and fancied wrongs,* of misun­ derstandings and causeless fears which are the root of wars. Pro­ pagandists outside our countries who seek to split opr friendship for their selfish end will not mislead, us. The background of more than 100 years of harmony of dwelling side by side with undefended borders is surely sufficient guarantee of peace. . “The historic treaty find engraved upon the to be unveiled before your eyes, was the joint product of leaders of your country and of mine. They appre­ ciated the dreadful mistakes of the past and sought to establish guaran­ tees against such disasters in the future. The treaty or 1818, repre­ sents wise and sagacious thought. Had this model of guarantees against future wars been adopted by Europe, the carnage of 1870, the wholesale destruction of human life in 1914- 1918 as* well as other minor wars never would have been. “There js nothing antiquated about the treaty which our fore fathers signed 113. years ago.
