About five months before the time of the crucifixion, Jesus, enemies had massed against him in his own country and were so persistent in their plotting against him that it became necessary for him to leave Galilee. He knew that he was doomed to meet death on the cross when the Passover came, so he retired into Peraea, the comvtry east of the Jordan, accompanied by his twelve faithful followers.

It was the custom of Jewish mothers to bring their children to the great teachers that a blessing might be bestowed. As Christ sat discussing divorce with the Pharisees, mothers came with their infants, but the disciples would not allow them to interrupt the discourse. "Suffer little children to come unto me and forbid them not,” Christ rebuked his followers. "For of such is the kingdom of Heaven.”

No people can rise, socially, religiously nor politically above the ■ standard of its homes. This is better homes week. How important that we build, not only better The Pride of Riches By Harlowe R. Hoyt It is told in the gospel according to St. Mark of a rich young man who came to Jesus asking what he should do to be saved. Christ, in return, ordered him to sell his worldly goods and give tho money to the poor. And the rich young man. unable to make the sacrifice, went away disappointed. This young man, so we are told, was quite a human individual. He was a ruler in the synagogue, which placed him high in the religious circles of his time. He followed tho commandments and obeyed the laws of the Jews, which proved that he attempted to do his best. But he would not sacrifice his personal coinfort, his luxuries, the things which money cmild buy to ease his body and make life unbtirdonsome. So he failed to meet Christ's test. We have tho rich young man among lift today. We find him on every side. Just as we have the money changers, who proved untnm to their trust and brought woe and poverty to those who believed in them, so *ve have the other man of wealth, who conforms to religious (dwervanees. who obeys the letter of the law, but who. deep in his heart, is inherently selfish. Those who have built their lives on wealth alone are paying the penalty. The mighty have' fallen, and the lowly are Io be exalted. Those who placed wealth above consideration of others have lost their all. aud the end is not yet. A wholesome lesson is convey ed iu the story ot»the rich young tuau. A more wholesome lesson is to be learned if we but look about us today. The principles Christ taught ever will prevail.

As Jesus prepared to set out on his journey to Jerusalem, there ran to him a rich young man, ruler in the synagogue. Kneeling before Jesus, he asked: “Good teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” Jesus replied: “Why callest me good? None is good save one, even God. Thou knowest the commandments?” And the rich young man answered: “Teacher, all these things have I observed from youth.”

Christ, looking upon the earnest young man, loved him. So he said to him: “One thing thou lackest: go, sell whatever thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in Heaven; and come, follow me.” The countenance of the young man fell and he turned away, for he owned great possessions and would not part from them. And Jesus pointed a moral to his disciples and they continued onward.

THOMPSON ♦ ♦ lit you want to learn to curse, Try your hand at writing verse. While a pair of alley cats are making love; If before, your thoughts were sweet, Soon you’ll not be fit to meet. Anything that walks, or crawls, or flies above. Just when your soul is hoping, That your mind will soon be doping Out a line to bring a smile, or jerk a tear; Your plans are all knocked flat, By some doggone love-sick cat. As he yodles to his love, that sho's a dear. Tho' your soul may writhe in hate, Best to just sit tight and wait, And let them yowl of love, to hearts’ delight; For their feline competition, Bars all hope of composition; You might just as well select another night. o FACES CHARGES OF EXTORTION (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) ed the telephone from Weil and told him of the arrest. Rosen wald received a letter March 20, it was revealed, demanding SIOO,OOO. On March 27 a second letter told him to put tlie money, eight SSO and S2O bills, at a designated place in the northeast section of Philadelphia. Twenty detectives surrounded Hie place, where a dummy package was placed, but the trap did not work. On April 13 a letter demanded that $75,000 be placed near a fire hydrant, in Germantown. Again a trap was laid, and again the extortionist was frightened away. A telegram filed in New York April 17 warned that the money must be delivered Friday night "or else,” and police then prepared the telephone trap which led to Weil's capture. Police said Weil made a full confession, explaining that he bad worked alone. “1 have been out of work for more, than a year, and T was desperate,’’ he was quoted as saying. “I didn't really mean to do Rosenwald any bodily harm. It was just that I was oO desperate for money." Weil, who is not married, sup-1 ported his widowed mother. 1
