Steeple. The northwest transept is the scene of the murder of Thomas a’ Becket, and the spot is marked by a small stone slab where he fell before the knives of his assassins. At the easternmost end is a circular chapel called the Corona, or! Becket's Crown, in which the martyr’s skull is said to be preserved.] There, too, is the stone chair used at the enthronement of all bishops. The spacious crypt is said to contain a coffin in which Becket's txmes are laid. Among the notable monuments in the cathedral are the tombs of , Edward tha Black Prince; of Henry IV and.his queen; of Card- ] Inal Pole, the last Homan Catholic archbishop; the memorial to Arch- : bishop Benson, and the coffin of Stephen Langston. Adjoining the cathedral on the west and northwest are extensive monastic buildings, cloisters, library, chapter house, and deanery. A little to the east is St. Augustine's College, a missionary training school, occupying some of the restored buildings of St. Augustine's ancient monastery.

1 Sunday School ? QUESTIONS ? Stephen, The First Martyr QUESTIONS 1. Who was Stephen? 2. How did he come to incur i the enmity of the opponents of Christianity? 3. Os what was he accused? 5. What was the outcome of' the trial? 6. Describe the punishment of stoning? 7. Where was the execution carried out and why? 8. What part did Saul of Tarsus play in it? 9. What were Stephen’s last words? 10. Where was he put to death 1 and when? ANSWERS 1. Stephen, the first deacon | appointed by the early Christian . i church, was the first Christian martyr. 2. Stephen was a particularly eloquent preacher. By espousing the cause of Christianity, he arous- ■ ed the anger of the priests and. Pharisees when he was able to de- j feat them in debate. ( 3. Stephen debated in the syna-! I igogue until he was with blasphemy against the laws of Moses and of God. 4. He was tried Before the Sanhedrin. the highest tribunal of the Jews, consisting of seventy elders.l scribes and priests. False wit-' nesses appeared against him. The vote was final. The accused was allowed to defend himself, but the resu’ was a foregone conclusion. 5. Stephen was found guiltyj and condemned to death by stoning. 6. Stoning was a punishment administered upon blasphemers by the Jews. The condemned was cast i down from a height. The first , witness fhtew a huge rock upon i him. If he survived, the second ! witness followed suit. Then the ' mo'* continued to pile risks upon J ' him until he died. 7. Stephen was put to death outside the city gates. This was i in conformity with a law passed Iby Moses that all executions be i carried on without the camp durI ing the flight from Egypt. It was | ! followed when cities were built. B'. Saul of Tarsus, then a young man, watched the clothes of those | who participated In Stephen’s ;death. 9. "Lord, lay not this sin to I their charge." I 10.

COURAGE By Harlowe R. Hoyt Courage is an indeterminate I quality. 4 boxer, battling in the ring, , goes do-wn time and again, only | to stagger to his feet and continue ' the unequal combat. Some call j this courage. More often it isi simply a moronic desire to show off lefore one’s fellows. A soldier, making his way ' through the barbed entanglements , of No Man's Igind,. brings back a I wounded comrade amid a mil of I shell and machine-gun fire. That I is courage of a rare quality, for it : entails the willingness to lay' down one's life for another. It i is remembered and recorded in the' annals of the brave. But a rarer degree of courage is to lie found in everyday life. That is the courage of one's convictions. For it takes real courtge to hold publicity to an ideal when others | are against it. It is the idealist who his set the pace of civilization. With the ’ formulation of a new principal.! upsetting the smug complacency i

I of his fellow men, hs lias had trt. i face ridicule, oppression, and, ( .qftI entimes death. Columbus knew, the world was round. Galileo propounded the fact that it moved. Both were held up to scorn. Much greater courage is emailed in daring to do right. It hasbeen said that the greatest ■weaken'* [ to wield against an opponent- • is I ridicule. Place him in a position • : where his fellows laugh at him, And whatever his cause, his arguI meats lose much of their power. ~ So little wonder that we are in- ; dined to bad habits through AVil I companions. It takes a brave man ! to say “No" when in so expressing himse’f, he is contradicting the I attitude of his associates. * ' I But such courage pays in the end —in health, happiness, and. al five all. in the spiritual strength and growth of character which comes from having trust in pne- [ self and daring to prove it.
