PAUL IN ROME

Following his appeal to King Herod Agrippa II and his release from prison in 59 A.D., Paul set out from Jerusalem on his way to Rome. He travelled to Myra, where he found a clipper ship which he boarded. After many days, the vessel reached Crete, where Paul advised that they remain for the winter, the typhoon season. But the owners desired to make Phenice, not far away, so the suggestion of the evangelist went unheedeo.

SOCIETY LOVES OLD MUSIC Philadelphia.— (U.R) —Existing in Philadelphia, virtually unknown to the general public, is a small and exclusive group banded together; solely for the purpose of perpetuating the music of the 17th and 18th centuries. It is named the "American Society of the Ancient Instruments,” I and is the only organization of its . kind in the country. Ben Stad. its. founder, has patterned it after "La ' Societe des Instruments Anciens,"; a government-supported I’ari.s organization, which was founded by .M. Casadesus. There is a similar group in London. Purpose of the organization, according to Stad. is to preserve tlie (harming music that lies historically between the late Renaissance' and the early symphonists, and to! !ecreate it by performances upon' the old instruments for which it' was written. The society gives a few public concerts each year ami plays frequently at private musicales. Appropriate backgrounds are selected for its public appearances — the dim. religious light of tlie chapel of ( the Graphic Sketch t'luz, the Memorial Chapel of Valley Forjje, and local churches. Irate Pack Kat Treed Ranger Bend. Ore.—(U.R)— Being treed by an irate pack rat was the recent experience of John Clark, forest lookout. Clark set a trap for what he thought was a mouse. He was awakened at night by a great commotion. Investigating, he found an unusually large pack rat in the trap. He hurled a boot, then another, [ missAl both times. The rat then 1 took the offensive, pursued Clark across the cabin and treed him on ' top of the fire finding equipment., Tlie battle ended when Clark re- | covered a boot and was accurate

They weighed anchor with a favoring wind, but a short distance off shore they were struck by the typhoon. The boat was driven far from its course and finally found a harbor at the small island of Cauda. For three days the storm continued and the sailors were obliged to throw overboard the cargo and all portions of the ship that could be spared in order not to go to the bottom of the ocean. For two weeks they were tossed about.

Hoyt In all the history of the noble characters of the Old and the New Testaments — and, bideed, i they are many—none stands out more clearly and strongly than does Paul of Tarsus. Others have preached and led the way. Others have faced death, have suffered persecution, have; succumbed as martyrs. But none have displayed the fortitude and i pei-siS'ence to a greater degree j than did Saul of Tarsus, rabbi and tentmaker, who renounced his strict Jewish orthodox faitli to become the great evangelist ofl Christ. Paul struck out into the unknown with his gospel. He traveled into Asia Minor, where dangers and illness beset him. He faced unfriendly mobs. He was stoned and left for dead. He was (arrested on a trumped-up charge, taken to Rome, and finally beheaded as became a Roman citizen. But at no time did he waver. At no time did he hesitate. Afflicted throughout his life with an incurable sickness, lie overcame it. Ugly almost to deformity, he overcome the handicap and made men listen to his oratory. He won because of his belief in the cause j he professed. When life is hard and things go i wrong, what better example to re-1 call the example of one who serv- i ed so weH and faithfully and met I death unafraid, secure in the, knowledge of a deed well done. |

At last one night shoaling water proved that they were nearing land. The sailors would have deserted in small boats, but Paul induced his companions to cut the ropes and let the boats drift away. When morning came, they found themselves not far from the Isle of Malta. Seizing planks and boards, they cast themselves into the sea and gained land in safety, while the doomed vessel went to pieces on the rocks. When winter ended, they went to Rome.

— Sundav School ? QUESTIONS ? Paul in Rome QUESTIONS 1.- When was Paul released by Herod Agrippa and what order was given at that time? t 2 —Where did lie go? 3. —What happened on the sail- | ing? 4. Describe the ship in which Paul sailed. ; f 5. Tell about the storm. 6. — How was the rescue affected? 7 -Why did the guard wisli to j kill Paul? 8. —When did Paul reach Rome i and what happened on his arrival?' 11). Tell about his death. ANSWERS 1. —Paul was released by Herod i ' Agrippa in 59 A. D. It wa.s decid-1 ed that there was no reason for holding him, but since he had ap- ( i pealed to Caesar, it was only right , that he should go to Rome and complete the appeal. I 2. Paul with other prisoners and ( their guards went to Myra where they took ship which finally ! brought them to Crete. 3. —Arrived at Crete, Paul conn- j seled that they remain there dur- ( ing tlie winter. It was Hie season f of hurricanes and Paul, a seasoned traveler, knew their danger. But : they would not listen to him since ] they wished to reach Phenlce, a I harbor about twenty miles distant. 4. The vessel in which Paul sail-11 ied was a wooden boat of the dip- i per variety. A wooden hull, point- i ed at either end. was surmounted [amidship by a mast 150 feet high made from two tree trunks lashed ■ together. Tlie mainsail was of I I coarse cloth with no boom. Small masts at either end were surmount- s ed witli square sails. Posts rose | high at either end. surmounted with the head of the sacred ibis,; or some other bird. , t 5. —Scarcely had the ship put out ( from Crete before the hurricane I struck it. Driven twenty-three , miles from its course, it took shelt- | er behind the island of Cauda, i where for two weeks it was tossed " alxmt in the storm. Finally, in the I | night, they came to shoal water, i which proved to be the Isle of Malta. 6. The sailors prepared to de- , i serf the ship, but Paul urged the soldiers to cut the ropes and set (the lifeboats adrift. Daylight dawned. The ship started to beat to pieces. The soldiers suggested Unit they kill their prisoners. Paul dis- : suaded them from this. Finally, seizing boards and planks, the crew land passengers leaped into the ocean and made their way to land. 7. A Roman soldier was respon- ; | sible for his prisoner. If that pris- : oner escaped, the soldier was puni ished with death. So. in times of great stress, when escape seemed 5 probable, the soldier killed his prisI oner to protect his own life. 8. —The shipwrecked travelers remained on the island until spring, | which came in about three months, j Then they found a ship and went I to Rome, where Paul went on trial. 9. —Paul was arraigned, but no . ' charge was brought against him. | He was given his own home and i for a time a guard watched over | him. Finally, he was allowed to i |go about as he pleased. This continued for about two years, when ■ he was arrested a second time. 10. Paul was cast into prison following the burning of Rome. He was condemned to death, taken without the walls of the city and beheaded. o Mt. Victory U. B. Church Revival services are being held each evening at 7 o’clock at the I 1 1

In Rome, Paul lived for two years in his own dwelling, accompanied by the guard which had been assigned to watch him. Finally, he was cast into prison following the burning of Rome, as were other Christians whom Nero accused of the crime. He was confined in a damp cell underground. His only companion was the faithful Luke. Finally, he was condemned to death. And Paul of Tarsus was taken without the gates of the city and beheaded.

LABORATORYTESTS CHECK EFFICACY OF Show Why This Delicious Cereal Overcomes Common Constipation There are scientific reasons for the success of All-Bkan in preventing and relieving common constipation. Laboratory investigations show that it supplies “bulk” to exercise the intestines; and vitamin B to promote appetite, and help tone the intestinal tract. These two important food-ele-ments aid regular habits, and help do away with the headaches, loss of appetite and energy, so often the result of constipation. The “bulk” in All-Bran is mild in action — much like that of lettuce. Inside the body, it forms a soft mass, which gently clears the intestines of wastes. Isn’t this pleasant “cereal way" far more healthful than using pills and drugs—so often habit-forming! Just eat two tablespoonfuls of Kellogg’s daily—enough for most types of constipation. If not relieved this way, see your doctor. Besides, All-Bran brings your body twice as much blood-building iron as an equal amount by weight of beef liver. Special cooking processes make All-Bran finer, softer, more palat- ■ able. Equally tasty as a cereal, or ; used in cooking. Recipes on the red-and-green package. Sold by all grocers.
