REFERENCE MATEKI AD-I'J.ihn a Luke 7.36*60 Rom. 6.1-11. Ual. 6:1-6. PRIMARY TOPIC-A Father's lx.ee. JVNIOH TOPIC-A Picture of the Heatenly Father’s Love. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —The Reach and Power of Our Father's Love. TOL’NG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —How to Treat Sinners. I. The Son’s Insubordination (v. 12). There Is every indication Unit this was a happy home. But a devil entered It und stirred tip discontent in the heart of the younger son. He became tired of the restraints of home. His desire for freedom moved him to wilfully choose to leave home—throw off the constraints ot his father's rule. Sin Is the desire to be fr< ■ from the restraints of rightful authority mid for seltl'h Indulgence, it starts ouf with wrong thoughts about God. At the request of the son, the father “divided unto them his living. - ' 11. The Son's Departure (v. 13). Having made the final decision he got his goods In portable shti|>e. Having thrown off the restraints of his father's rule he eagerly withdrew from tis faflier’s presence. This Is always the way sin works. He "gathered all together." When the sinner easts off Ids allegiance to God he takes all that he has with him. He not only wastes his money, but Ids character Is sacrificed. 111. The Son’s Degeneration (vv. 1314). He had a good time while his monej lasted, but the end came quickly. The indications are that his course was soon run. From plenty in his father's house to destitution in the far country was a short journey. The sinner Is soon made to realize the famine when Ids very powers which ministered to ids pleasure are burned out. IV. The Son’s Degradation (vv. 15. 10). He had no friends to help Idm when his money was all gone, so he was driven to hire out to u citizen to feed swine. It was quite a change from a sonsldp in his father's house to feeding hogs in the far country. So it is; ; those who will not serve God are made slaves to the devil to do Ids bidding (Rom. 6:16). In Ids shame and dis-I grace the prodigal could not even gei j the necessary food. The coarse food of the hogs wns denied him. V. The Son’s Restoration (vv. 17-24). I 1. He Caine to Himself (v. 17). When he reflected a bit lie was made conscious that, though he had wronged 1 ids father und ruined himself, yet lie was a son of bls father. In the days of his sinning he wjis beside himself The world calls the sinner who leaves oft his evil ways crazy, but In reality he just becomes sane. If we could 1 but get sinners to think seriously of their condition It would be more easy to get them to turn from their sins. 2. His Resolution (v. 18). His re flection ripened into resolution. The . picture of his home, where even the hired servants had a superabundance, i moved him to make a decision to leave the far country and go home. 3. His Confession (vv. 18, Ilf). He acknowledged that his sin was against heaven and his father —that he had forfeited his right to be culled a son. ; and begged to be given a place as a hired servant. The sinner not only should make a resolution; he should confess his sin; for with the heart man belleveth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 4. His Action (v. 20). Action was needed. Resolution will not avail unless accompanied with action. 5. His Reception by His Father (vv. 20-24). The father had not forgotten his son. During the years Im longed for his return. He must often have looked for him, for he saw him when he was a great way off. So anxious was he for him that he ran to meet him and fell upon his neck and kissed him. So glad was the father that he even did not hear his confession through, but ordered the tokens of honor to be placed upon him, receiving him buck into a son's position. Tltis parable makes bare God's heart. Every teacher should strive to present this lesson so as to show God’s forgiving mercy—His willingness to receive hack His wayward child. Two Classes.

CONFLICTS ARE BREWING TODAY — Numerous Uprisings in Old World Hint at a General Warfare Soon l nhe<l I'reux stuff Correspondent While a war of wills waged in the j Ruhr valley with German industrials . defying France's ultimatum and subI miffing to arrest today rather than , deliver coal to the invaders, half a dozen other conflicts were breaking out in the Old World cauldron. Dispatches received by the United Press said that uprisings in Bavaria were rumored. Clash of Greeks and Turks in Thrace, with British troops likely to be involved, were reared; in eastern Prussia only a temporary truce restrained invading Lithuanians from becoming embroiled with Poles and Germans; Russia is reported to lie moving her vast armies in significant manner;; the little en tente. Serbia. Czechoslovakia and umania, apparently considers the time ripe to pick trouble with "white" Hungary and has complained to Paris of invasions by the latter's forces, in the Ruhr, it was “prussfan stubbornness" against "french avarice." according to French and German versions respectively; France Is determined tlie Germans shall deliver coal; having invaded the Ruhr the French don't wish to be made a laughing stock by German wile. The industrialists of the Ruhr are equally . determined not to give in. and are seeking in every way possible to boy ! cott the invader. Feeling against the occupation runs high in Berlin; tremendous antiFrench demonstrations have been staged. — Look to League of Nations Washington, Jan. 17. —A movement has been started in Europe to bring the entire question of the crisis over German reparations and France’s occupation of the Ruhr before the League of Nations or settlement, according to authoritative diplomatic advices reaching Washington today. 4 The advices state that this movement is taking place in Switzerland. In view of the fact that Geneva is the seat of the League of Nations, it is the European crisis brought squarely before the league ha sit sorigin with officials of this body. It is understood here that the Swiss government has not yet taken the matter up officially in any way. Berlin, Jan. 17.—An audience in Berlin’s largest moving picture house rose to' its feet in a tremendous antoFrench demonstration demanding expulsion of the invaders, when pictures of black invaders were shown on the screen. Paris, Jan. 17.. —Representatives of the German government,, mine diirectors and miners, meeting at i Dusseldorf today, unanimously resolvl ed not to obey French orders about coal deliveries, according to a dis--1 pitch to the Lokai Anzeiger. • Philadelphia—A.
