OCEAN FLIER IN SAFE HANDS (CONTINUED FROM HAOE ONEi If the luck of Fried and Manning had not held good and if Reichers had heen a few miles further off his course, the officer on watch, might never have sighted the air- ' plane, a mere speck buffeted about in high seas. The President Roosevelt's passengers had finished dinner and were chatting in the salons when I the ship slowed down suddenly. News that an airplane had been sighted spread rapidly. Soon the passengers were at the rail while ('apt. Fried gave his orders from the bridge and Manning summoned the crew of lifeboat No. 10. A strong southwest wind was slowing. The President Rooseyelt's search lights picked up the fprm of an airplane. Passengers gasped as the pilot nosed his machine down and struck the water with a crash that sent a sudden, white spray up from the black waters. The airplane righted itself and remained on top of the water, but was tossed about like a cork and in obvious danger of foundering. Meanwhile (’apt. Fried maneuvered the bulk of the ocean liner alongside the plane. Manning and his crew were lowered in the lifeboat. The thrill of the rescue at sea. the end of a lone attempt to fly the Atlantic, was described tersely by : Capt. Fried in his report, which j ended: "They took off Lou Reichers, the . lone pilot. Unable to salvage lifeboat or plane on account of high, rough sea. (Signedl Fried." Passengers were much more excited. They rushed to the captain's cabin to congratulate the captain and chief officers who have figured in more thrilling rescues than any other “team” on the North Atlantic run. Capt. Fried* has stood on the bridge several times while Chief Officer Manning le<l a lifeboat to a rescue, notably in the rescue of the crew of the freighter Florida. It sank 700 miles off the Virginia coast in January. 1929. Manning and his crew braved towering seas and took off the Florida's crew against odds which appeared insurmountable. The officers were honored by the city of New York for the rescue, but it was becoming an old story, i Three years before they had rescued the crew of 25 of the British freighter Antinoe, when they were aboard the President Roosevelt. The British parliament, at the request of King George, conferred medals upon the heroes. In March. 1930, Capt. Fried accomplished a mission of mercy at sea when he led the transfer of Chief Engineer Frank Battam from the steamer Cranford to the S. S. America. Battam's daughter was near death in New Orleans and he was transferred to permit him to go to her. Reichers said he was “all right” in a message to Bernard MacFadden, New York publisher who backed his ight. He sent the following imessage: “Picked up at sea by President Roosevelt steamship.

It was thirty-seven years after he left home before Jacob saw his brother Esau again. During this time, he worked for his uncle. Laban, and was married to the two daughters of the home, Leah and Rachel. The two wives gave their husband their two handmaidens to wed, and from these unions were born twelve children, one of them a daughter. One of these, the son of Rachel, was Joseph.

Forgiveness By Harlowe R. Hoyt if ever one brother wronged another. Esau was wronged by his twin. Jacob. Led into bartering his Birthright for a ntess of pottage, Esau was further wronged when Jacob connived witli his mother to trick Isaac into bestow- ' ing his biassing upon the younger twin. So fearful was Jacob of the wrath of his brother that he fled to distant lands; and not until ’ many years had passed did he re- ■ turn to the scene of his boyhood. Even then, he approached in fear and trembling. 1 Time softens many tilings. Esau ' had been given to wrath when first he learned of his betrayal. ■ He swore to slay his twin, and, 1 Jacob fled to escape the wrath] (hat threatened. So, In after years, lie came back to greet his brother, only to find himself forgiven. 1 "But the greatest of these is ■ charity.” we are told. Charity ’ need not necessarily mean the be- ’ stowing of alms. It tnay, mean 1 charity of thought. We should be charitable when it comes to judg- ' ing others. We should be willing ’ to give them the advantage of the ’ doubt and to rememller that, what- : ever may happen, human nature is weak and frail ’ It means charily of action. We 1 should be charitable in our attitude toward others. We should overlook their various transgressions, even if they have been committed upon vs. We should forgive. That is true charity. Esau, grew wise with the passing of years, made tender with the thoughts of boyhood that come as man draws nearer the eml o f ijf e —Esau, harking back to the time when they were lads together. forgave his twin. Jacob, perhaps, did not deserve • such, generosity. Still, he had rued his action; and it a penitent and a contrite hear’ mean anything, it means that forgiveness U lias been earned through bitter bread and hours cf sot rowing.

Because quarrels sprang up between the household of Jacob and Laban, Jacob gathered his family together and left secretly for hiS former home. But Laban followed the caravan, and, when he had overtaken it, rebuked Jacob for leaving without saying farewell. The two met at Mizpah, where they set up a memorial altar, and then Jacob continued his way, while Laban returned to his home.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR MAY 22, 1932 Genesis 32, 33

] Sunday School ? QUESTIONS ? i INTO THE LAND OF CANAAN QUESTIONS 1. What happened when Jacob reached the home of Laban? 2. How did Laban trick him? 3. What was the outcome? 4. Whom did Jacob marry and how many children did he have? , 5. Who was the most famous of these? 6. What arrangements were made by Laban and Jacob after he had served his time? 7. How did Jacob trick his uncle? 8. In what did this result? I • 9 How did Jacob meet Esau? 10. Where did he finally settle? ANSWERS 1. When Jacob reached the home of Laban, he fell in love with his youngest daughter, Rachel. As he brought no dowry, he consented to work for Laban for seven years without pay in order to wed the girl. 2. On his wedding night. Jacob received his bride veiled in the dark, after the eastern custom. > The next morning, he discovered that he had wed Leah. Rachel's sister. Laban defended himselfj by saying it was not seemly that the younger daughter should wed first. 3. Finally, it was agreed that Jacob should wed Rachel also and work another seven years for I,aban. which he did 4 Rachel and Leah gave Jacob their two handmaidens to marry. By his four wives, he had twelve ; chile n, one of them a daughter.; 5. Joseph Rachel’s son, was the most famous of the children, for it was he who was sold into i Egypt by his brethren. 6. When his fourteen years of service were ended. Jacob arranged with his uncle that certain of the flock - should be his. Caring for them, as he did. Jacob saw to. it that his share were the strong-' est and best bred, and they multiplied rapidly at the expense of Laban's flocks. 7. Jacob managed this trickery by so controlling his breeding that, certain markings—which were to designate his flocks—appeared upon the animals he wished. Naturally. this resulted in ill feeling between him and 8. Finally Jacob decided that he would leave. He departed with his household but when Laban discovered what had happened, he followed the caravan, overtook it, and parted in peace and friendship. 9. When Jacob neared his former home, he sent messengers on. They brought back word that Esau was advancing with four hundred men. In fear, Jacob sent 550 animals from his herds as a peace offering. But Esau received him with tears, embraced him, and begged him to stay. 10. Jacob, after greeting his brother, parted with him and continued on his way to Shechem in the heart of Canaan, where he bought land. o Calvary Evangelical Church Sunday School at 9:30. Eldred Shift'erly Supt. This will be a regular Sunday School Day at Calvary, as the Township Sunday School Convention will convene here in the Afternoon e,nd Evening. The Regular Session of the school should be a real Rally. There will be worship with sermon by the Rev. M. W. Sundermann on Thursday Night at 7:30.

Messengers which he had sent ahead brought word to Jacob that Esau was advancing to meet him with four hundred men. Fearing for his safety, Jacob sent out five droves of cattle numbering 550 animals in all, to be delivered to his brother as coming from "his servant Jacob.” The next day. he divided his family as best he could and went on ahead to meet what fate might be in store for him.

Brandyberry Called For Another Year I Pastor of Nazarene Church to Serve Seventh Year Here: Also a Delegate to Assembly. | Coffeyville, Kan., May 14. —(Special J—At a congregational meeting' 'of the Church of the Nazarene last !

It has witnessed the purchase of the tabernacle at Eleventh and Beech 'streets —a commodious building. i but far from a modern church; !plant. Its bleak walls and forbiddi ing benches have since given way |to finished walls, comfortable seats’ and partitioned departments. The Nazarene church has taken position in Coffeyville with the othJer and much older churches both 'from the denominational stand- | point and from the point of local organization. A dozen years ago | the congregation worshipped at the 'street corner. On Sunday afternoon its members sang at “Squirrel park,” the site of the Hotel Dale. The Nazarenes now are quite | completely organized and perhaps I none of the churches here lias enjoyed more frequent or more spirited evangelistic meetings. They I have not been of the* temporary . type of revivals, and their pastor and his sincere, capable and worthy helpmeet, who also is an ordained minister, have fitted into this atmosphere admirably. Both are jot the evangelistic type — contagliously enthusiastic, hard workers, . excellent leaders and light hearted ' with it all. No man in Coffeyville, | perhaps, can utter a more genuinely hearty laugh than Pastor BrandyI berry.

Great was his delight when Esau ran forward and embraced Jacob. When he had welcomed the households, Esau insisted that he remain and share his possessions. “Take my gift that is brought to thee,” Jacob returned. “God hath dealt graciously with me.” So Esau consented. The brothers parted, and Jacob continued on his way until he reached Shechem in the heart of Canaan and bought land for a home.
