(Seud problems in question form to Church Editor; answers will appear in later Issue.) 1. Our special church singers—the Choir and soloists—fall to articulate distinctly so that something in worship is lost. How may this be remedied? ' i A number of church insert in their church bulletins their printed service programs including the words the anthems and special music, ffae worshippers by using the church bulletin will be able to understand the language of the singers, making the special music more worshipful. 2. you consider it wise to have looal ministers frequently visit the Sunday school and give addresses to the scholars, instead of the usual classes?

QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION

QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION Peter at Lydda and Joppa. Acts 9: 32 43, for Sunday, .May 31st. 1 What miracle was clearly in Peter’s memory as he raised Dorcas lo life? - How has the name of Dorcas ' been perpetuated In our day? 3 Why would it not be possible io cut out. the miracles recorded in tbe Old and New Testament, and 1 still have a connect ed historical narrative? 4 In what sense are tbe spiritual works of Christianity greater than the physical miracles of Jesus? 5 What is the value of modern medical missions? CI.ERIOUS SAYS: If this miracle were an invention or a myth, these pages would be sprinkled with such wonders. Their scarcity in the narratives is evidence that, the writers reported only what they saw or knew. And why should we doubt that God can raise the dead? When folks are in trouble 1 , do they <en<| for you? o LESSON PRAYER Dear Savior, we thank then that thou art still working with thy disciples and that the same power which healed the sick and restored the. dead to life in the long ago, is working today.
