V y /■(ODMKrecfMitX McCormick-Deering No. 3-B Boot Cultivator MKcCORMICK-DEERING Beet C.ultiyators are fast-working, labor-saving tools well worth any beet grower’s consideration. Weeds disappear and greater l>cct yields are assured when beet fields are cleaned out with the McCormick-Deering. The McCormick-Deering No. 3-B is a two-row cultivator, adjustable for 22, 24, 26, and 28-inch beet rows and has extra long gang-bars which adapt it to the cultivation of corn. Double gang-bar construction gives ample clearance for the various combinationsof cultivating appliances, and provides rigidity necessary to hold the cultivating appliances to their work. The opera tor guides this cultivator by means of foot levers. H e can supply any combination of cultivating tools you desire. See us now about the No. 3-B. Also, look over the other beet cultivators in the McCormick-Deering line. The Schafer Store HARDWARE and HOME FURNISHINGS

Leaving Mt. Hermon and Caesarea Philippi, Jesus and his disciples proceeded southward to renew their work in Galilee. But Jesus knew well that his enemies were watching for him, so he avoided the main travelled rtiads and ceased to teach in the villages in an open manner. Over and over again, he told his faithful twelve that he was to be crucified and instructed them how to carry on his work.

Since he had left Nazareth, where he resided, following his renunciation by his fellow townsmen, Christ had made his headquarters in the little fishing village of Capernaum or *he shores of Galilee. It is probable that «d in the home of Peter and Andrew, an here that he came on his return to J> .d A.m As the disciples were in the house one -ay, Christ heard them arguing.

Preaching, 10:30 a. in., by the pastor. Subject: “Christ is Risen" Stumbling' Blocks By Harlowe R. Hoyt Today we find that portion of Mark's gospel included in our Sunday school lesson dealing with the incident at Capernaum, whore Jesus rebuked the disciples for being self-seeking and pointed, in addition, that * sift h actions on their part would prove but stumb- . ling blocks in their way. Christ knew well the punish inent of self seeking. For those who would advance themselves at I the cost of others, rather than as the result of actual merit, can not I build on a firm foundation. First of all. there is jealousy to Ibe combatted. Every successful 1 umn must realize that those less successful are bound to be jealous of him. But when he attains his position without merit, that feeling is universal. So Jesus knew that a dishonest reward brought its own punishments, its loss of friendships and often open antagonism. Next there is the certainty of failure before the race is run. I’nlcsH there is a foundation amt background to meet tlie final tests when they come, elevation to high position is worthless as brass. “Pride goeth before a fall," and sad is the fall of him who is not I prepared for his work. Finally, there is the lack of concern for others, it was this, perhaps, more than anything else that Christ rebuked. Brotherly love was his golden rule, and those who violated it were sure of his disapproval. As it was then, so it is now. Many of the mighty have fallen during the last few weeks because they were self-seeking and proved stumbling blocks to their own success. . We < an do uo better than appiv the lesson to ourselves and escape’ the pitfalls which beset them.

Jesus asked the twelve what it was they were discussing but they were silent. Still, he understood. “If anv man would be first," Jesus told them, “He shall be last and servant of all.” Then he took a little child in his arms and continued: “Whosoever shall receive one of such little children in my name receiveth me: and whosoever receiveth me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.”

Sunday School ? QUESTIONS ? The Virtue of Lowliness QUESTIONS 1. Where did Jesus go with his ' 1 disciples following the transfigurj ation? i 2. What conditions did he find 1 1 on the way? 3. What did he continue to ; preach to his faithful twelve? 4. Where did he finally settle . down for a time? 5. Why did he make his quart'l ers here? ■ j 6. What happened that is re--1 lated in this lesson? 7. How did Jesus rebuke them? 8. What did John tell Jesus of ■ one casting out demons? 1 9. What did Jesus replv? 10. What further lesson did ■ Jesus teach them? ANSWERS 1. Following the transfigura- . tion, Jesus and his followers re- • turned to Galilee. But the Pharisees had stirred up their ranks against him, and he travelled far from the broad highways and did . not preach in public. 2. He was well received by those who were not bigoted or prejudiced, or who were not seeking to effect his downfall because . his teachings interfered with them. But despite this, he used ■ extreme care that he might not be . taken before the appointed time i ot the Passover. 3. Thai at the time of the Passl over lie would meet his end by crucifixion in Jerusalem. 4. Jesus and the twelve came to Capernaum, where they made their headquarters. Probably he resided in the home ot' Peter and i Andrew, for they were fishermen of that little village. 5. Following his last visit to Nazareth, where he had spent his boyhood, Jesus had joined his followers in Capernaum, where many of them lived. Nazareth practically had driven him out and he found a new home. 6. While they sat in the house I one day, the twelve commenced a discussion as to wliich of them was the gieutest, each advancing his reason why he should be so credited. 7. Jesus called them to him aud taking a little child in his arms, pointed out the virtue of humility. 8. John told Jesus that they had seen a man casting out demons and forbade him to do so because he was not one of them. 9. Jesus forbade them to prevent such good doeds, realizing how the sufferer was helped. “No man shall do a mighty work in my name and be able to speak evil of me,” Jesus said. 10. Jesus continued to preach to them that thev must be humble follow his example and credit God with those tilings which they accomplished in his name. —— o— — - "n First M. E.

RESURRECTION j By Hairy W. Thompson John. 20:20. "Then were the disciples glad when they saw the Lord.” The little hand kept close within the room; Their stricken hearts a prey to fear and doubt; 1 hey too. might hear the mobs dull roaring shout, And have to mount the way that led to doom. All day fantastic tales came drifting in, That the Lord of life was known to be alive; But no matter how credulity might strive, They saw him die, like some foul thing of sin. "Peuse be unto you," fell softly on their cars; It can't be! Yet surely there He stands, Exhibiting His wounded side and bauds. A wild tumultuous joy displaced their tears. This then the sequel to thlt awful time. When the (Sod like Man gave up his life for man, That men, like Gods should carry on His plan, To seek and save the lost, to live sublime. Our Service Is Yours Mr. and Mrs. S. E. Black To ComtTMUd At Ail T,mes and C. L. Weber r

Then Jesus continued to instruct them and preach to them. "Whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink because ye are Christ's, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward,” he told them. “And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones that believed in me to stumble, it were better for hirb if a great millstnoe were hanged about his neck and he were cast into the sea.”
