With the vanguard of the Italian

direct peace negotiations, with the

be reached on the field of battle, the

Planes Fire at Selassie’s Palace
Addis Ababa—Swooping low in a
lightning raid, two Italian battle
planes fired machine-gun bullets on
Emperor Haile Selassie’s palace in
what some observers said was an at
tempt to kill or injure members of
the Ethiopian Royal family. The
shots wounded a number of persons
and threw the city into panic, but
failed to hit any members of the
reigning house. The big craft circled
over the city at a high altitude, and
then droned into the distance as rap
idly as they had come.
Croll Agrees With Taxing Hydro
Niagara Falls—Hon. David A. Croll
Ontario Minister of Welfare and
Municipal Affairs, announced his op
position to the principle of Hydro ex
emption from taxation at a joint
meeting of the Kiwanjs, Rotary,
Lions and Hermes Service Clubs here.
“I am departing somewhat from my
own particular field in discussing Hy
dro taxation,” said Mr. Croll, “but I
think my views will be welcomed by
this audience. We, as a department,
are deeply concerned with the effects
upon municipalities of Hydro exemp
tion from taxation. It is a problem
which concerns Niagara Falls and its
suburbs more deeply than anyone else
but it is important to every munici- |
pality in Ontario.”
and the convocation of a special ses
sion of the League Council to consid
er the Italo-Ethiopian war were re
garded by well-informed sources in
Rome as having produced one of the
most delicate situations since the war
began, In some quarters the sum
moning of the Council was viewed as
a step toward additional sanctions.
Railway May Reduce Fares
Canadian Railways may join with
the American lines in the establishing
of a two-cents-a-mile passenger rate,
which is expected to become effective
in the United States about June 1st.
While no announcement has been
made by the Canadian Passenger As
sociation, it is learned from reliable
sources that the new low rate is very
likely to become general in Canada
on June 1st.
Rats Made Meal of Records
Ottawa—A vigorous rat hunt was
in progress at the Dominion Bureau
of Statistics following discovery that
rodents had devoured extra copies of
last Thursday’s nation-wide crop re
port. Bureau officials, housed in the
remodeled stables of the old W. C.
Edwards Lumber Company, said they
had been aware for some time that
the building harbored rats but had
not appreciated the seriousness of the
situation before this sabotage.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
JESUS LOOKS AT WEALTH

Sunday, April 26—Luke 16.

The rich and poor meet together.
The Lord is the maker of them all.
(Prov. 22:2.)
There are many sharp, striking con
trasts in this lesson, and one of them
is in two words in the lesson title,
wealth and poverty. What the world
calls wealth, the Lord calls poverty;
and what the world calls poverty the
Lord calls wealth. This is—because
God and men see the same things in
very different lights. God sees things
as' they really are; men often" see
things as they are not at all, and so
men are as completely deceived as if.
they were looking at a mirage.
By wealth men mean plenty of
earthly possessions, and by poverty
the lack of earthly possesssions. But
God means by wealth plenty of spir
itual and eternal possessions, and by
poverty He means the lack of pos
sessions that will last forever.

last generation who had exceptional f of departed spirits, but not yet the
ability in several lines, especially in '
the field of money-making, and who
was offered a tempting and legitimate
opportunity to make a great deal of
money, decided that with God’s help
he would not leave his children rich.
He deliberately turned aside from
money-making and invested his life
in the Lord’s service in remarkable
ways. When he died he did not leave
much money, but he left his children
a spiritual fortune, and they have re
cognized the wisdom of his decision.
Our Lord told his disciples the
story of a certain rich man and a
certain beggar. Bible teachers differ
as to whether this story, of Dives and
Lazarus, was a parable, like many
similar stories told by the Lord, or a
recital of actual fact. There are rea
sons' in support of both views, and
the lessons to be drawn from the nar
rative are the same in either case.
Let us look at seven sharp con
trasts in the experience of the two
men:
1. Using the word Dives (riches)
for the rich men, we see the sharp
contrast at the beginning in the des
ignations of the two men: “A certain
rich man”; “a certain beggar.”
2. Dives was
home, enjoying
riches. Lazarus
his gate.”
3. Dives had
and abundant
"clothed in purple and fine linen, and
fared sumptuously every day.” Laz
arus, doubtless in rags, was glad en
ough to be “fed with the crumbs
which fell from the rich man’s table.”
It is interesting, just here, to note
the prominence given by our Lord to
the sumptuous food and clothing of
the rich man, in the light
ord’s teaching in the Sermon
Aunt, telling His disciples t
i niixh
iall we
■ink?” <
tithed?”
4. When the two men died, we
told simply that the rich man “
buried
had an angel escort: ho “was carried
by the angels" into the next world.
5. And Dives’s place of arrival, af
ter he died, was “in hell,” or hades,
meaning the unseen wotld, the place
inside his palatial
all its comforts and
was outside, “Laid at
the most expensive
clothing and food,
lake of fire, while Lazarus was tak
en by his angel escort “into Abra
ham's bosom”—that is, to Paradise,
the place of the blessed dead.
6. What a contrast now in the ex
perience of the two men! Dives is “in
torments,” for I am tormented in this
flame,” he said. As for Lazarus, “now
he is comforted,” in peace and joy and
abundance of blessing.
7. Abraham speaks'the final word
of contrast, saying to Dives: “Re
member that thou in thy lifetime re-
ceivest thy good things, and likewise
Lazarus evil things: but now he is
•comforted, and thou art tormented.”
Good things versus evil things during
the short earthly life; evil things ver
sus good things for all eternity!
Interwomen with these seven sharp
contrasts are two great
experience: two things
alike to the two men.
One of these is death,
died . . . and the rich man „also died.”
Except for those who “are alive and
remain” until the coming of the Lord,
death comes to all men, the rich and
the poor, the lost and the saved. For
“it is appointed unto men once to
die, but after this the judgment”
(Heb. 9:27),

i When the rich man pleaded with
( Abraham to send Lazarus to his (the
rich man’s) five brothers, lest they al
so come into this place of torment,"
Abraham answered: “They have Mos
es and the prophets; let them hear
them,” Dives made a final plea, which
was that if some one like Lazarus,
who had died, returned to these men
from the dead, they would surely re
pent. But there came the solemn and
final word from Abraham: “If they
hear not Moses and the prophets, nei
ther will they be persuaded though
one rose from the dead.”
It is terribly true. As a commen
tator on the parable has well said;-
“Another Lazarus was allowed to re
turn, but the result was that he chief
priests consulted that they might put
Lazarus to death. They were no
more ready to believe in the Lord
Jesus Christ that they had been be
fore.”
