Gentle Teacher’s Harsh Words For Rich And Pious Seifists Nothing New In Fashion Os Criticism Os Wealthy Oppressors—By Conttrast, The Story Os The Widow And Her Mite s—W orld-End Warnings.

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS "Gcutle as ahe who nursed Thee at her breast, what a flash of lightuiugs once Thy tongue, ■ To scourge the hypocrite aud PharI i»ee.” So wrote Frederick Lawrence ; Knowles, challenging the common ■ conception of Jesus as a weakling. Despite the sentimentalism of religious poetry, and the pallid porjtrayals of stained glass windows, Jesus was a strong man, in body j aud in spirit. His sturdy frame carried Him 011 long journeys ajfoot. and upbore Him through nights of wrestling prayer on the ; mountainside. The hands which He ■ outstretched in benediction were not the soft, manicured hands of the recluse, but the calloused palms of a working carpenter. In moral courage Jesus is the world's supreme Hero. He dared utter burning words of condemnation concerning the rich and powerful of His era: and He defied all the entrenched power of the day. ;No knocker-down of straw men was He. He chose for the objects !of His criticism the tops of His 1 time, the men who could hit back hardest, as they did when they I crucified Him. It was the rich, the ’ mighty and the highly placed against whom Jesus hurled His keenlest shafts. The Badness of the "Good” As we look back at the battles waged by Jesus, we are struck by the clear fact that his opponents were usually the professionally good. His sincere spirit loathed hypocrisy and pretense. And for those who cloaked evil deeds—extortion aad fraud and oppression—beneath religious professions and long public prayers, He plainly predicted the hottest hell. His words of excoriation of Scribe, Pharisee and ■hyproeite should put power into the pens and voices of all who are today at war with sham and evil. One point usually overlooked is uiat Tt was His own Church leaders and officials whom Jesus criticized. Anybody who would raise his voice against ecclesiastical politics and professionalism and institutionalism in his own Church may find his warrant in the words of the Master. Churches always need this self-correction. There is plenty of hostile criticism from the world, but much of it is unwarranted. most of it is uninformed and 1 all of it is unsympathetic.

icism of those who weep while they : wound. Here is how Weymouth . translates this particular warning' against spiritual pride: "Beware of the Scribes, who like . to walk about in long robes, and love to be bowed to in places of public resort and to occupy the , best seats in the synagogues or at , a dinner party; vho swallow up the property of widows and mask their wickedness by making long prayers. They will be punished far more severely than others." Immortalized By A Glance j AU of this took place amidst the . hustle of the outer court of the ! Temple in Jerusalem, as Jesus > watched, He saw the rich ostenta-1 , liously throwing their gifts into' > the treasury; and a poor widow f modestly dropping in two mites—I the tiniest coin of all, worth to-| gether about four-fifths of one cent. l . In Jerusalem I got two of these I I mites, of the period of Jesus, think-j ■ ing to have them made into cuff ■ links; but they are too small. 1 That glance, falling upon the . widow, immortalized her and her 1 gift. In a few vivid words, Jesus • contrasted her sacrificial, faith-fill- ’ ed offering (for she had given her 1 all) with the contributions of the ' prosperous. Forever, since that day, ; that the widow has been the Mod- • el Giver. Recently there has been widely published a revealing list of the average gifts to religious purpos--1 es last year of the membership of 1 r the twenty-five leading Protestant ! j denominations of the United Statr es and Canada. The largest per. - capita offering has not been that | 3 of the rich Episcopalian. CongreI gational or Presbyterian churchlies. Instead, the highest amount, ■ I by far. was contributed by the lowII ly and oft ignored little new deno- ! initiation, the Church of the NazL arene, which gave last year, to all Christian causes, an average of . I >26.77 per member. Evidently the ! principle of the widow's mite still ; prevails. It is the lowliest who are . the best friends of the Highest. I The mites of the many poor, and .' not the bequests of the dead rich, .'sustain the expenses of the Chris- .: tian Church. ' Prophets Os Doom 11 While Jesus, who ever put hum1 1 an values first, was watching the .' widow give her mites, those about | ; ' Him were admiring the temple it- . self. Their talk promoted Jesus to 1 prophesy that the days were com- . ing'when this supreme glory of the . Jewish people would not have one 'stone left standing upon another) -, —a prediction that was literally i fulfilled about forty years later, at the destruction of Jerusalem by 1 the Romans. As in all times, the people of) : our Lord's day were keenly inter-, in prophecies of doom. Many!

worried about it. Just as nowa--1 days, hosts of good folk take a sarlstlc satisfaction in contemplat- ! ing what they believe to be the isigns of the end. They have an almost ghoulish satisfaction in reports of wars and rising floods and ) earthquakes. A certain type of preacher aud writer in engrossed in "interpreting" the "signs of the times," cheerfully ignoring the fact that the same “interpretations,” made ten, twenty, thirty, 1 fifty years ago. proved utterly false With respect to this theme of the end of things, and of His own return, the attitude of Jesus may be said to have been one of cauI lion. He said, in our Lesson. "But take heed to yourselves, lest your souls be weighed down with selfindulgence and drunkenness or the anxieties of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly, like a falling trap.” (Weymouth). Carelessness and self indulgence are faults of this age. We are a "soft” generation, characterized by its amusements and its indulgences and I by its carcaes-coddliugs. To us tho i call of Christ ia clear to live alertly for high and holy ends, as those whose ultimate reckoning must be , with GodSEVEN SENTENCE SERMONS Great minds have purposes; others have wishes. —Washington Irving. » ♦ » | The chains of habit are generally too small to be felt, till they are too strong to be broken.—Samuel Johnson. • • • New occasions teach new duties; Time makes ancient good uncouth; They must upward still and onward, Who would keep abreast of truth. —Lowell. * • * A good subject cannot serve two masters; lay not two saddles on one horse.—Mencius. ♦ ♦ # Because Thou hast been my help therefore in the shadow of Thy wings will I rejoice.—Psa. 63:7.

Night Automobile Accidents Serious I AS NIGHT FALLS ii eF i- ' feiii . te? _ w ., ■ Travelers ins. Co. Safely Service, *

Last year during daylight there were 14,000 fatal automobile accidents as against more than 19,000 during dusk and darkness. But total accidents in daylight exceeded the number during dusk and darkness by more than 130,000. The fatal accident record during dusk and darkness, in proportion to all accidents in such periods, was 92 per cent greater than the daytime experience. The tremendous loss of life during hours of darkness constitutes one of the strongest arguments against the present-day prac-

1 Modernized On Main Street 1 ! tel ls|ikI" . <z *~*** The owner of this store in Moline, 111, decided to conduct a oneman “Modernize Main Street" campaign, and the above photograph, graphically depict the result. The store before modernization (shown nt the top) is a 70-foot front and lacked any distinction from adjoining shop fronts. By the installation of the new store front and display windows, at a cost of approximately $2,800, the women's wear establishment became almost overnight, a "center of interest" in the business section of Moline. The modern, attractive appearance of the new front suggests the quality and advanced style of the merchandise o. display. Numerous women's wear store owners have realized increased profits from such improvements. Funds with which to finance •tore-front modernizations are available at private financial institulions operating under terms of the Federal Housing Administration's Insured Modernization Credit Plan. Many store owners have already testified that improved app-arance improves a store’s “sales appeal" and hart found tt convenient to repay modernization loans out of increased profits generated by such conversions.

tice of driving too fast. There is no way to explain the high rate of dsath per accident at night except by the fact that many operate cars at speeds during darkness which do not permit them to stop within the range of the illumination provided . by headlights. Under such condii tions lives are crushed out whenever s the unexpected happens. Either ■ highways must be illuminated and I th« lighting of streets improved, or drivers must remember and act on the warning: WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN. SLOW DOWN.
