The Northwestern Region of the Pennsylvania expects to hold their next outdoor meet at Decatur, and if so Harry will have his hands full playing hast to the thousands of athletes anti Itoosters who will land in that city. The meet is held in the early fall. Heretofore, these regional meets have been held in . larger cities. Grund Rapids getting iit this year, anil they have never Ifl-.tite paid out financially, so the athletic board is considering trying another method, holding the meet in a smaller town where athletic interest runs high, in the hope that the crowds ; will be just ns good or better and ex- j penses not quite so high. For s'.tch I an experiment. Decatur is an idal location. There is hardly a station I ' along this of the G. 11. & 1. that - , does not have at least one entry in ' t these events, and the citizens are I keenly interested in the success or ' failure oj fthese entries. o EXPECT CROWD 1 (Continued from Page One) Christmas shopper who wants, to comi plete the happy task of purchasing J presents for grandpa, grandma, fath- .

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL Sunday School ’ Lesson •’ <By REV. P. B FITZWATER, ». D.. Teacher of English Bible tn the Moody Bible Inetltute of Chicago.) lIH WMt»r« N*w»i»MP*r Union » LESSON FOR DECEMBET. 9 THE OUTREACH OF THE itARLY CHURCH LESSON TEXT—Acta 8:4-8; 14-17; 25. GULDEN TEXT—"Ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and tn all Judea, and In Samaria, and unto j the uttermost part of the earth."— | Acte 1:8. PRIMARY TOPlC—Philip Telling j About Jesus. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Gospel Spreads ■ to Samatla. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP- : IC—The Gospel Spreads Through Per- ' eecutlon. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADt*LT TOPIC | : —Expanding Missionary Vision and I Activity. I. The Gospel Spreads to Samaria : (Acts 8:4-8; 14-17; 25). 1. Philip Preaching the Gospel In Samaria (vv. 4-8). Following the stoning of Stephen the enemies of the Lord were more active than ever in their i efforts to stamp out the new faith. | With Saul as their leader they dragged - from their homes ami imprisoned’those who confessed Chrtet, but the Devil overreached himself In this, for this scattered tlie believers everywhere, and they preached the Gospel as they went. The time had now come for the witness-bearing to extend beyond Je- 1 rusalem and Judea as the Lord had commanded. The Lord permitted the persecution so as to , scatter them. 2. Peter and John Visit Samaria j (vv. 14-17; 25). When the Apostles heard of Philip's work In Sumaria they sent two of their best men to encourage it. These men had discernment to know that the spirit had not yet fallen | upon the believers, so they laid hands upon them nnd the Spirit was given them. These Samaritans were really ‘ converted, regenerated, but had not yet been filled with the Spirit. In this they were like many church members today without the Spirit's gift. 3. Philip Preaching to the Ethiopian Eunuch (Acts 8:30-40). In the conversion of tlie eunuch we see the Lord’s work still broadening. The Gospel was first preached to the Samaritans who were nationally on the borderland between the Jews and the Gentiles. This Ethiopian was in all probability a Gen tile, a proselyte to the Jewish faith. In his conversion we see the work reaching afar, even on its way to the emls of the earth. By divine direction Philip left his great work in Samaria and was directed to the eunuch. The Spirit of God directed him to go and join him self to the chariot of the Ethiopian Tlie coming together of these two men in the desert was providential. (1) The eunuch's employment on the way. He was reading the Word of God. (2) The absolute need of a preacher. The eunuch was reading the fifty-third chapter of Isaiah, one of the clearest testimonies of tlie Messiah in the Ohl Testament, yet was unable to under stand It. The one thing needed in the salvation of men Is for tlie saved man to bring the message to the unsaved (3) The message of Philip was Jesus. He began at the Scriptures am! preached Jesus. The central theme ot the preacher’s message should be Je sus. (4) The eunuch baptized. As a consequence of Philip's preaching the eunuch proposed baptism. Men who accept the message of salvation In Christ naturally demand baptism. 11. The Conversion of Saul (Acts 9: 1 30). The great apostle of the Gentiles is now laid hold of by the Lor i Jesas and made a flaming evangel of the Cross to the whole world. We thus see the Lord making ready for the widest dissemination of the Gospel of His grace. 111. The Gospel Spreads to Asia Minor (Acts 9:31-15:35). * 1. Peter at Joppa (Acts 9:32-43). On his tour of evangelizing Peter came down to Joppa and lodged with Simon, a tanner. Tills shows the widening of his sympathy in that a Jew was willing to lodge with one of such an occupa tion. 2. The Conversion of Cornelius (Acts 1 10). In the conversion of this Gentile nnd the coming of the Spirit upon him. the middle wall of partition between Jew and Gentile was broken down. The way was now open for the further outreach of the Gospel. 3. Paul s First Missionary Journey (Acts 13, 14). The Spirit of God now came upon the church for tlie definite purpose of preaching the Gospel to the whole world. Paul and Barnabas with | John Mark went out preaching tlie ■ Gospel through the provinces of Asia I Minor. 4. The Conditions of Gentile Salvation Settled (Acts 15:1-35). Before the Gospel could be preached to the whole 1 world the dispute In the church over the condition of Gentile salvation hud to be settled, so a council was held at , Jerusalem In Which these conditions I were clearly settled. In the Light of tne Bible. Dr. A. C. Dixon Is quoted us having 1 said: “We have been studying the ■ Bible in the light of modern scholar--1 ship. The time has come for us to study modern scholarship In the light ; of the Bible.” Quite a correct obser- ■ vatlon I —Southern Methodist.

Chicago, Dec. 7. —Wheat started weak on the Chicago board of trade today, while corn and oas showed some strength. | Local buying developed in wheat following an unchanged opening. This Inlying was induced by the raising of the estimate of export business work- 1 ed over night, and strength in corn. Traders continued to assume the waiting attitude that has featured the market the past few days. Working of corn for export yesterday caused locals to give he market j good support at the outset and prices advanced fractionally. Receipts were 1 heavy at ISO cars. Oats started out strong in sympathy < with corn and the realization of trad•rs hat farm consumption is cutting 1 noticeable dent in stocks and as a result a serious situation may develop before spring.
