A Fisherman’s Great CatchThe Greater Catch Ahead An Eventful Scene By The Famous Lake Os Galilee —A Travellers Memories — Jesus, The WaterLover, Recruits Helpers From The Nets.

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS Serunest of my memories of Ute Holy Lund are the many days and nights spent on and by the beautiful Lake of Galilee—a lovely, nil! girt body of water, sweet t<r drink, stimulatiiife- to awhn in. capricious to sail on and to catch fish from. My two best friends In I’alestine dwell on its shore; and I am eager to share again the welcome of t'uther Toepper’s hospice, on the site of old Capenuuim. which was the home of Jesus in mauhmvd. A vislta of the palms and orange grove and bananas sweeps before my mind as I write; but, most of all. I want to be by and on the lake —to see the indescribable sunrias over the bareb rown hills of the East; and to watch the eve ning net fishing along the shore where the upper Jordan enters; 1 and to gathter for children at home s a few hundsful of the lovely little i shells Xnat strew it. I would like ito be storm-bound again in midtake until midnight, and water the I aghts of the fires of the Arab en- : carapineuts. The Lake of Memories Best loved of all the waters of the world. Galilee is forever associated with thoughts of the Great Teacher, who lived by its shores, used its boats as a pulpit, sailed .is surface ?” caha and in storm; and chose His first disciples from its toilers. For the long, hard task ahead of them Jesus needed men of patience and serenity and fortitude, all fishermen qualities. “Brittle intelleifttals ' could not have served Him :as disciples. They must be quiet men, apprenticed to out-of-doors j simplicity and labor; men who would not sink into despondency vflic-n a night's labor brought in only empty nets. It was required, also,- that the helpers of Jesus should be. like Himself, sons of toil, bone and sinew of the common people, in short, they need ed to be rugged, rough-hewon foundation stones for the new 'structures of the temple of life. There is no getting away from the basic and eternal relation of Christ's Kingdom to the common people. While it has commandeerled much of the wisdom and wealth iof the world, its main support today. as ever, is found in the rank and file of the plain folk. As it was in the beginning, so it continues to he. that Jesus finds His ; most devoted followers amongst the toilers and the poor.

are! Now. as then, "the common people hear Him gladly," as He still cries, amidst the clashing clamors of a distracted world. "Come unto Me, an ye that labor and arc heavy laden, and I will give you rest.’’ Life holds its best ; for those who join the fellowship and fellowship of Christ. Ready-Made Pulpits At the time of the present lesson, Jesus bad already acquired a local reputation in Galilee as a teacher and healer. He bad tour ed the towns and cities, preaching in the synagogues, and curing all manner of diseases. At His baptism He had called John and James, Peter and Andrews, to be His dis- . cipies. But He wa* not yet ready to enlist them in full-time service, and they had returned to their work as fishermen iu Galilee. One day, thronged by those eug,'er to hear Him. Jesus had appropriated Simon's boast as a pulpit, from which He addressed the multitude on the shore. Nothing could have been more informal. Jesus , never needed a cathedral and a choir and an order of service. Most of His ministry was in the open . air, and by the waysides of life. Tnere was no artificial dignity about Him. He was the supremeexample of street preachers. A Fisherman’s Luck Changed After this particular sermon. Jesus bade Simon Peter push out into the deep—and Galilee is verydeep. Despite the strain of His labors with the multitude, the Master still took thought of individual needs. He knew of Peter’s bad luck In the night s fishing; no need to teli Him. "We have toiled all night and caught nothing. I have seen the disconsolateness of Galilee fishermen as they 'drew in their great and heavy net. and found it empty. "Launch out into the deep!" was the command of the Teacner. whom Simon had already learned to obey. The temptation is strong to tarry with these words as a life motto for all who have been con tent with fishing iu the shallows of life. The churches too, need to hear this summons; how few and feeble are their efforts to serve and save the great masses of mankind. With the passing ol Billy Sunday there is nobody left with the audacity to build a huge tabernacle and to attempt to arouse a whole city. Present conditions cal! for large scale activities on the part of religion. Out In Hie deeps of the lake, Peters net was filled to bursting. He had to call upon his partners for help; and their two boats were nearly swamped by the huge catch. Now For The Greater Catch This miracle —for so he deemed it —within the sphere of his norniaml life ovewhelmed Peter with

a sense of his <|vn unworthiueas; which is a good first qualification for any discipleship. He was ready for the word which should call him forever from the nets. "Henceforth thdu shalt catch men." With an alacrity which only the great (draught of fishes could explain. I Peter and his partners "forsook all. and followed Him " A group of disciples were tut ' needful to Jesus us to Huey Long, or Father Coughlin or Dr. Townsend, A great leader must have followers, else he is not a real leader. It would be of interest to consider at this point, if space permitted, what makes a great leader; for not ail great men are great leaders. Jesus was: He drew followers cb Himself, who extended His ministry and continued it after His death. Still they follow after Him. In all this wonder-filled world there is n<> other phenomenon so great as the size and distribution and devotion of the discipleship of Jesus Christ. This goodly fellowship embraces men and women in all walks of life, whose supreme passI'M is loyalty to Him, for wnosc sake they would gladly lay down ' tnelr lives.
