Back In The Balkans, Early Christians Had Life’s Secret A Traveller’s Memories Os Salonica, With Thoughts Os Paul’s Experiences Among Thessalonians—Disciples Who Mastered Environment.

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS I smell fried fish. Every thought of Salonica—the ancient Thessalon ica— brings vivid memories of the I sizars at evening, fragrant with tlie odor of frying fish. I cannot explain it: there ure many bigger, better reasons why I should reriiember Salonica. such as Its associations with St. Paul; the busy mart of this strategic seaport; the wartime memories of my activities here as a correpondent; my dramatic relations with the Greek officials when I highhandedly delivered three American missionaries from prison; my contacts with mysterious DumnWis, who nightly send a man with a lantern to the water front to show the way to the Messiah of Ismir: the warnings of the officials that I was in danger of assassination, because of my resemblence to Veniselos; the great American missionary school on the hilltop over- 1 looking the city hut. in spite of all my keenest recollection of old SalI onica is the fragrance of the frying fish in the food bazars. This Lesson plunges us into the midst of a romance-crowded and history -crowded spot. The ever.’ difficult Balkan Question centers here: there will never be peace in the Balkans until Bulgaria anil Jugo-Slavia get access to the sea at Salonica, or some other neigh-1 boring port. The Macedonia Question in particular centers here also, if you would know the geography] of Macedonia—the nation without 1 a land, whose officials decreed the * execution of King Alexander at] Marseille—stick a pin in the map I at Salonica, and with a string de-| scribe a hundred mile arc, and you will have Macedonia. Memories Os Alexander Memories of Phillip of Macedon and of Alexander the Great are still alive on our Lesson scene. The city of Thessalonica was named for Alexander's step-sister. Later it was the capital of the Roman j Province of Macedonia- In New, Testament times it was a "free city." But the Bible has away of eclipsing secular history. Most persons throughout the world who know of Thessalonica at all, think of It first as the scene of Paul’s exciting experiences and as the home of the Christians to whom he wrote the two letters which are the earliest books of the New Testament can. on. Jason, Gaius, Secundus at>d Aristarchus are the best-known citizens of Thessalonica. because they were converts and friends of Paul. Characters and events of the Bible I have preempted the place of priority which might be expected to belong to the most famous figures in secular history. Mind The Calendar Not only was this Fifst Letter to the Thessalonians the first of all the New Testament writings, with the possible exception of Mark's Gospel, but it was written so near to the date of our Lord’s life that its record takes on startling significance. Everybody has heard atheism's vague charges about the unreliability of the Bible's records- It is opportune to pause here and touch upon the subject. This particular letter of Paul, warmly personal and human, and hearing internal evidence of its authenticity, was written about the year 52 A. D. —that is, some twenty years after the crucifixion of Jesus. Among Paul’s congregations were doubtless persons who had known Jesus in the flesh. Still greater numbers were familiar with the story of His life and death from other first.hand witnesses. The Apostle’s whole case rested on what were practically contemporary events. And there Is no record that his facts were ever once challenged. As we keep in mind the calendar we are struck by the further fact that the disciples had already—that is, within a generation—become an active body, with a wellarticulated Message as to the significance of Christ's life and death. Their program far a new sort of human society was already under- • »»»»»•** .»»»*»»»» * The International Sunday School Leeson for December 2 is: “The Christian As Witnes”—l Thea. 1: 1-10. *»*••••*»

stood, and being propagated. Three Weeks This Lesson is bud medicine for those highbrows who teach that religion Is a matter of slow evolution, and who spaciously demand centuries and milleniums for its development. For Paul and his companions bad spent only three turnul. tous weeks in Thessalonica, before a church emerged. And. although Christ's earthly life was only twenty years in the backgrounds, the repute of the Gospel was so widespread that enemies in Thessalonica could say, "They that have turned the world upside down have come here also" in short, the life-changing power of the Gospel is so great that it could make over whole communities within a few years; and alter the characters of its converts within a matter of hours or days. What a dynamic was the Good News that Pau! carried. Three weeks of preaching— and a living church the result! Does not that truth hold out tlie hope for our sad and mtldd. led world, that the swift, fresh, vital preaching of the Gospel may give us an era of peace and brotherhood. before civilization is blastled into pieces by another world war? The Big Idea Sticking up like Fujiyama above the Japanese landscape, the high I teaching of this Lesson rears its I sublime head. That truth is the ex- . istence of Christian saints in pagan Thessalonica. As the reek of I fried fish pervades the bazars of i Salonica today at sunset, so the | odors of idolatry suffused the city I where dwelt the Christians to I which this letter was addressed 1 All of (he activities of the city I were penetrated with the influence of paganism, and with the gross immorality which always follows in its train. Yet there were reborn men ami women in Thessalonica wlio lived saintly Christian lives in the midst of all of this. In our day. with its cult of the dominance of environment, we hear I even preachers wailing that condii lions are adverse to Christian living. Certainly they are: but one intelligent look at the world into which the Gospel came conqueringly should silence all such whimper, ing and whining. Christians can be Christians, anywhere and everywhere The religion that requires (he coddling and comfort of congenial conditions is not the religion of Paul and IDs converts. The disciple who cannot practice his faith in workshop, school and crowd simply never had real faith No modern Christian is ever called upon to compete with such a background as surrounded the saints in Paul's cities. From first to last -—from Matthew to Revelation — the Gospel is one of the overcoming the world. That is the big idea of this Ijesson. Bigger Than Environment One step further the Lesson goes. Those early Christians not only withstood their environment, but they overcame it. made inroads into it, changed it. Their faith was so shining and victorious (hat Paul began his letter with affectionate paens of thanksgiving and jubilation for the way in which they were carrying on. These near .to-heathendom disciples lived such lives, and witnessed so powerful a testimony, that their influence was felt, not only throughout Macedonia, but also in Greece and the neighboring world. A precious lot they cared for environment; they' possessed an inner life which was more powerful than any outward circumstances. Those heroic young Christians who made up the young church in Thessalonica had turned from idols and they turned all the way. Like Paul, for them to live was Christ. What matters if s&on their witness became martyrdom (the two words were long synonymous in Christian terminology); they lived a testimony to Christ. To this day, the principal thoroughfare in Salon, ica is “The Road of the Martyrs.” Life or death —either matters only as a witness to Christ.

SMt »f Paiht Concentrated Sunshine The shorter day of the autumn ■ and winter means “cod liver oil time” to an increasingly large army of parents. Or it may be the halibut or the salmon that is the benefactor. The needs, val- * ues ’ an d results ar e just the same. Your family physician should make the choice. But of one thing we are sure, and it is that a great many children are in absolute need of one of the liver oils and it is very likely that practically all children would be benefitted. We witness one of the marvels of science and take it so calmly. We discover that sunshine is essential to the normal growth of children and to the health of adults. We find out why. Other investigations discover in the fish liver oils those chemical I elements called "vitamins,” and it turns out that they are identical with the elements manufactured in our bodies under the influence of the sun’s rays. Thus, when the short Jay comes and children are deprived of sunshine because of attendance at school, we have at hand nature’s own product and substitute. I shall never cease to regard these discoveries as being among the greatest triumphs of man. We should rejoice in this knowledge and we should use it, that coming generations will be ever better fitted to carry on the world's work. To say that it is one of our obligations as parents and teachers is not putting it too strongly. Sunshine is essential and it is better than the substitute. Lacking it in quantity, we should rely upon the next best, one of fish liver oils. But, as always, get your physician's advice. Don’t prescribe for your child without a physician’s advice. Dr. Ireland will discuss the dangers of this next week.
