GOLDEN TEXT—Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is wellpleasing unto the Lord. Father*. provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged —Col. 3 20, 21.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —The Christian Ideal of Family Life. The lesson Committee has made\an infelicitous choice of title for this leeson. The teacher would better Ignore it and give himself to the explanation of the passages of Scripture selected, as they are of immense importance. 1. Ths Behavior of Martha and Mary When Jeeua Was In the Heme (Luke 10:38-42). Tlie attitude of Martha and Mary toward Jesug wag the same; they both loyed Him sincerely. 1. Jesus welcomed into Martha's home (v. 39). Though Jesus had no home of His own, into this home He could come at any time and throw oft the restraints Incident to a public ministry. How plensant it is to enter a home where one can feel “at horns . In Martha's home Jesus was welcomed for what He was, not for what He might appear to be. This Home was His special retreat in the lost days of His life on earth. 2. Mary sitting at Jesus’ feet (v. 39). Though this WM Martha’s home, her sister Mary lived with her. Mary had a peculiar spiritual insight which prompted her to sit at Jesus’ feet nn, i listen to His words. The real place to hear Jesus’ word is at His feet. Let no one imagine that Mary 'lid not render any service. Tlie little word "also” implies that she had taken her turn at service. 3. Murtha’s complaint (v. 40). She was desirous of preparing the very best possible meal for Jesus because she loved Him. She was mistaken as to what pleased Jesus. He much prefers the love which concerns itself with Him than for His. Because of her failure to perceive this she was "cumbered about much serving.” Her serving got on her nerves; she became distracted. In her distraction she not only found fault with Mary, but even censured Jesus for allowing Mary to sit at His feet while tlie dinner was not finished. In order to serve Jesus without distraction one must first sit at His feet and listen to His words. This gives personal poise. 4. Jesus’ reply (vv. 41, 42). (1) He rebuked Martha, telling her that she was careful and troubled about many things. Those who are concerned with the Master are anxious for nothing (Phil. 4:6). The one thing needful for every life is to sit at Jesus’ feet. Tlie time to choose this place is in the day of sunshine. (2) He commends Mary. "Mary hath chosen that good part which shall not be taken away.” Those who choose this good part cannot be robbed of it by circumstances, friends, or foes. < 11. Jesus, the Obedient Son (Luke 2:51, 52). Although Jesus was conscious of His deity and divine mission, He rendered due obedience as a faithful son. Since He was known as the carpenter’s son (Matt. 13:55), and the carpenter (Mark 6:3), it is reasonable to suppose that He assisted Joseph in bls work as a carpenter, and after Joseph's death He, as the eldest son of the family, continued with the trade ' to support the family. Indeed, tradition has it that soon after they found 1 Him in the temple at the age of ■ twelve, Joseph died leaving the care of tlie family upon Him. The obedient , child is really about his father's business when running errands for mother in loving obedience to her request. 111. Timothy’s Home Training (II 1 Tim. 3:14, 15). This is a picture of a real Christiin home. From a child, that is, a babe, ' Timothy was taught the Holy Scrip- > tures (v. 15). This teaching was not done in the Sunday school, but in the home of his mother (II Tim. 1:5). Tlie Sunday school can never take the place of home teaching. Timothy hod a godly ancestry. His mother had ' the good sense to fill his mind with the word of God before it became preoccupied with oilier things. The reason this is so important is because tlie Scriptures are God-breathed, and Hide to make one wise. Tlie wisdom wliich 4s obtained from the Scriptures leads to Christ, tlie only Savior, in whom alone is salvation (Acts 4:12). Those Without Fault. And I looked, and 10, a Lamb stood on the Mount Zioii, and with him an iuind&d and forty, and four thousand, having the Father’s name written in their foreheads.'; And In their mouths was found no guile: for they are wlthbqf fault before the throne of God. — Revelation,l4:l, 5. Peace. Thot| wilt keep liiju in perfect pence, wjicse mind Is stayed on Thee;’because. he trusteth in Thee. —Isaiah 26:3.

I < We Add 50 Cents to i Each Dollar Invested ? by An Employe y I RECENTLY the Standard Oil Company 9 . r\ (Indiana) announced a plan under which * v it is possible for its 25,000 employes to 0 become partners in the business on a very b attractive basis. i- The publisher of a small newspaper, unacII quainted with the motives which animate the seven men who direct the operation of the '* Standard Oil Company (Indiana), wrote an editorial in which he questioned the motives of this Company, and intimated that the plan was a scheme whereby the Company aimed to n benefit by getting in this additional capital. To set right this publisher, and any pne else interested, the Company deems it advisable to ;n direct attention to two outstanding features of it this plan which are illuminating in this instance. n First, that to every dollar paid by the employe for the purchase of stock, the Company ‘ d adds, as a gift, 50c. ll " Second, that participation in the plan is not a ’ obligatory, and that in no case is an employe ,d .permitted to pay in more than twenty percent r of his earnings. In formulating the employe partnership plan. c ’ i the Board of Directors of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) was inspired solely by the idea of benefiting those employes who wish, ld J through systematic saving, to become partners ' e j in the business. It believes that the man who r - j works and saves is climbing upward, but that <>• the man who invests his savings wisely is climbt. ing faster. It believes that the employe who er has money invested in the business is freer of •s. mind, more contented, and more productive than if this anchor to windward did not exist. The idea of employe ownership of industry is < in line with modern tendencies. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has always been a > progressive' organization. Its willingness to j receive new ideas has put it in the lead in ' E •- the petroleum industry. •iy ] The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has develie. oped an efficient, enthusiastic body of workers, oi Every employe, from the Chairman of the ' s Board of Directors to the man who drives a h ® , tank wagon, is working steadfastly to serve Ki) the public to the best of his ability. l, ‘- ; it is the recognition of this fact that prompted itß ! the Board of Directors to inaugurate the plan to which enables the employe—whatever his nd j position may be—to become a partner—a n s • factor in the business. <iy I F Standard Oil Company (Indiana) 910 S.
