Christ at first maintained a silence as the woman prayed that her daughter be healed. At last she turned to his disciples and begged them to intercede for her. "Let the children first be filled,” Jesus answered her, meaning the children of Israel. “It is not meet to cast the children's bread to the dogs.” “Even the dogs eat the crumbs,” the woman replied. So Jesus healed the child and sent the woman away.

There will be classes in Bible Study for ‘all ages with eaih class trying to break its former record at attendance Following the lesson study, the p:utor will preach upon: Means of Christian advancements.’’ E. L. C. E. at 6:15 Topic: “Is it BROTHERS ALL By Harlowe R. Hoyt One of the quiet lessons which Jesus taught was that all peoples of the earth were brothers. Jew <r Gentile, he ministered to 'hem .like and treated them with kindliness and consideration. If they were sick of body, he healed them. If they were sick of mind, he made them well. He asked only ■that they have faith and believe. Even the twelve who were closest associated with him failed Io realize that extent of the religion Jesus founded. After his dea h, when Saul of Tarsus had taken up the torch and was cardying his work into distant lands, he found nti|iiisitiiin from tiie closest of Jesus's associates because he included Christians oh an equal footing wi h Jews. It reunlred a confere"-ce '*l Jerusalem to come to an understanding as to what was to he done. There are too few Sauls in the world today. We who profess the Christian religion too often are circumscribed by the extent of the little religions circle which Includes our congregation. We labor for our church. We aid It with out contributions. We give to its charities. And we consider our task comnlete and approve ourselves with unctuous satisfaction. We are in an era of depression. All of us. rich and poor alike, have suffered. Close economv must lw> observed. But the demand upon us for charity is greater than ever before. And we should meet it. gladly and willingly. Tt Is nnt enough to confine onr efforts to our immediate eir- - cle. We must strike beyond it and curry on to relieve those in direst need. For the world is our brother. ' I

So great was the fame which came to Jesus through this miracle that he was obliged to seek retirement farther away. He traveled through Sidon to the sparsely settled regions of DecapoI'S, hut still the crowds followed him as he went, seeking to be healed of their infirmities. So it came that they brought to him a man who suffered from deafness and an impediment of the speech.

Jesus took the man aside from the gathering and put his fingers into the deafened ears. Then he spat, and touched the dumb tongue and explained: “Be opened.” At the word, the deaf man could hear and coHimenced to speak of those who gathered about. Jesus charged them to tell no one of the miracle, but they paid no attention to his request, and joined in praise of the cure which they had seen effected.

Heart Courageous A lenten meditation. By Harry W. Thompson Luke 9:51. “And it came to pass, when the lime was come that He should Im received up, , He steadfastly set Ills face to go to Jerusalem'' Out of the North the Master came, To keep a rendezvous; A rendezvous with hate and hlame; With ignominy, death and shame: His courage, strong and true. Into the South the Master went. Thro' dale, up lonely hill. Unmindful of all save love's intent; Tha. His life for our ransom should be full-spent. To do His Father's will. The angels watched the scone below, Watched with bated breath, 'I hey saw in:: churl with footsteps slow; Hut rather, a King with face aglow. Seek rendezvous with death.

!♦ « SIGNS OF SPRING I | By HARRY W. THOMPSON j ♦ -♦ The calendar tells me that Spring is here; The robins are now here to shout it: I’ve a much better sign, than that “old dear”: So you see, there is no doubt about it. The weather may prove the calendar wrong, And blue-birds may prove disappointing ; Tho’ sour are the notes in the first robins song There's a sign that proclaims springs anointing. The “bird” that cut-signs any bird a-flight. Wears a minus sign tacked on its chin; It clutters the highway, both day and night, j And is known by its asinine grin. When motorists pass it they pray in reverse; Blood pressures’ mount danger ously high: ; They step on the gas, and most fervently curse, Till they feel that they’ve got safely by. It roosts with its mate on a seat built for one, In a motor-car parked, — or in transit; When yo see this queer “bird", Spring’s here “old son”; Plant your flowers, sow your seeds, and chance it.
