Western Newspaper Helen LESSON FOR MAY 21 "HILKIAH'S GREAT DISCOVERY LWBBON TEXT.—II Chron. 3VU-S3. GOLDEN TEXT—Thy word Is a lamj unto my feet, and a light unto tny path. -Ps. 119 106. REFERENCE MATERIAL. - Deut. «: 4-»; Josh. 1:8; Col. 2:1«; II Tim. 2:16; PRIMARY TOPIC.—How the Lost Bible Wes Found. JUNIOR TOPIC.-Hilkiah Discovers the Lost Bible. INTERMEDIATaAND SENIOR TOPIC. —How to Make the Bible Our Own. YOUNG PEOPLE AMD ADULT TOPIC. —The Authority and Influence of the Bible. About a hundred years elapsed between the reformation under Hezekiah and that of Josiah. Some time during this time the book of God's law had been lost. Two wicked kings had reigned in this Interval. The Lord had given Hezekiah much wealth. His son Manaaseh. coming Into possession of his father’s property, and being ungodly, would naturally neglect the Bible, if not purposely try to put it from sight. Hose wh* do not obey the law are usually Interested In putting; It oat of sight. 1. Ths Book of the Law Found v (yv. 14-17). L The Occasion (▼. 14). It was while repairing th* temple during Josiah’s reformation that the law was discovered. 2. The Book Delivered to the King (vv. 15-17). Upon making a report to the king of work done, the king was told of the finding; of the book of the law by Hilkiah, and the book delivered to him. 11. The Effect of the,Reading of the Law (vv. 18-28). Shaphan the Scribe read the law before the king, 1. The King-Rent His Clothes (v. 19). As the law was read before him he was led to realise more seriously the awful extent of, the nation’s departure from God. He knew that sia merited punishment. The function ot the law is to reveal? sin. Hie man who will honestly hear the demands of God’s law will fall upon his knees before God and cry for mercy. The rending of the royal robes indicated that the king was penitently sorrowful. 2. The King Sent a Deputation to Make Inquiry of the Lord (vv. 20, 21). The king included himself in the guilt before God. "Go ■' Inquire for me and for them that atre left, for great is the wrath of thie Lord that is poured I out upon us.” His sense of sin was so keen that lye sent them to inquire as to whether there was any means of averting thie judgments of the Lord. Instinctively 'the human heart turns from God's Abreatening judgments to a means escape. The soul that I sorrows for sin Inquires for away of escape. The law prepares for the gospel. TYie law Is our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ. The soul under I condemnation, inquires, “What must I do to be,saved?”

t 3. Tty; Message of Huldah, the Prophetess (vv. 22-28). (1) Confirmatlon.bf what the law sa3d (vv. 22-25). She Bafd that all th« curses written in the law must fall, for the sins had been so flagrant thaa. God's wrath could not be restrained. Destruction was hanging over Jerusalem and it was too late to avert it. It was not too late to repent to obtain mercy from God, but the outward consequence oflsin must be realized. This finds fulfillment on every hand today. The murderer must hang. His soul may go directly to heaven, provided he has accepfied Jesus Christ. (2) Acceptance of .iositah’s repentance (vv. 26-28). Because.of his tenderness of heart and deep/ penitence, the Lord said he should/ be gathered to his grave in peace, and should not see all the evil to/belbro'jght on Jerusalem and Its people. What Huldah said was true ev£n though Josiah died in battle (35 a 23)-25). When God accepts a man and forgives him, his death is a/peaceful one even though it may be on the battlefield. God’s ’presenceris'iwiOi him and he thus will go straight;to the heavenly home. 111. The (Law Obeyed (vv. 29-38), 1. The King Read the Law (vv. 29, 30). He ,< gathered together the inhabitants! of Jerusalem, including the priests, Ilevites and elders, and read unto them the law. 2. The King Made a Covenant Before the Lord to Keep His Commandments and Testimonies (w. 31, 32). This was done sincerely—with all his heart and tfout He caused all that were present to stand to It.

3. The king thok away all the abominations out of all the > countries that pertained to Israel (v. 33). All the days of the kiag they, departed not from following after thejkord. He Will;, Save You. 8 When you feel as If things were dragging you down into the depths will you remember that the Lord Jesus Christ is at your side? All hurjian help may aeen very far away; but He is not farfaway. Even through the noise of the storm He can hear the faintest cry, "‘Lord save me, I perish,” and He w®l save you to the uttermost. iXdvertilty.

Hie People’s Voice

In the face of adverse weather conditions during the past month which has promoted a heavy growth of weeds and grass, Decatur citizens have made an earnest effort to care for lawns and cooperate with city officials in cleaning the city. The well-kept lawns; and neatly arranged flower beds to be seen on every hand bespeak that the efforts put forth for “beautiful Decatur” have availed much. However, there is to be found here and there a vacant lot that has been neglected—the grass has been allowed Rr-grow and great masses of dandelions are scattering their blooms over lawns that people are endeavoring to keep clean. It is not necessary that these vacant lots be cut with lawn mowers every week however in justice to property owners who are endeavoring to make conditions better it is urged that owners of vacant lots make an effort to remove these unsightly conditions. Visitors to our city this year will be more favorably impressed thereby by ,and the task of keeping Decatur clean another year will be simpiiied by the efforts put forth this year.—CIVIC SECTION. PAVING OF GAPS*ON THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY IS SAID TO BE PROGRESING NICELY Indianapolis, May 19.—Paving of the six gaps on the -Rational road under contract by the state highway commission, is progressing despite numerous by heavy rains this spring, Lawrence Lyons, state highway director, said today.

He warned the business men attending the United States chamber of commerce that they must noi expect to go back to the “old order” cf American industry and exchange, adding that business leaders must always have thought for the masses who made both production and consumption possible. Harding believes the nat'on Is on the “threshold of a new era” and that the business revival will be checked unless the captains of industry agree to place labor on a higher plane than ever before. . This was his main reason for asking the steel industry to abolish the twelve hour day and establish in its place three shifts of eight hours. The question of the proposed steel merger of eight independent companies, which will be discussed by attorney General Daugherty tomorrow with the heads of the concerns involved, was not mentioned at the White House steel dinner.

East Chicago, Ind. May 19. —We’ve hoard that story before. We want to see it before we will believe.” That was the general attitude today of workers in steel mills in the great Calumont district toward announcement in Washinton of agreement on an eight hour day in the industry. The news that an eight hour day was promised, .however, caused great excitement in streets and homes in the industrial towns. Men coming from the night shift gathered in streets and discussed the promise dispite a downpour of rain. "We have been told for a long time we were going to get the eight hour day,” said George C. Zarnik, who was employed by the Illinois Steel Company as a laborer for many years. "We aren’t going to count our chickens this time before they are hatched.” — • GRADUATES TO HEAR ADDRESS THS EVENING (Continued from page one) Invocation —RcY. O.- J. Miner.
