BLE tins UMy n >lßll, M _ aCRIPTVM: D.n1.l 1. DEVOTIONAL. READING: I TinwlkZ 1:11-14. Daniel Stands By His Convictions Leuon far May SO, 194* "4 pukrt from on duty— A molhor ilonrd for hor k'ood— Sorrow drmiuni iho btuuori— And /war on thr rood." SUCH a picture we have before ua in Sunday's lesson. All you need to do to get this dramatic picture la to read the first chapter of Daniel. You will then feel anew the meaning of that cherished statement, " ‘Tia conviction that convinceth." • • • BRAVE TO DO RIGHT W E GET the first draught of this tonic in verses 8-9, 14-15, and 17. “But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile him-

self with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank .. He was brave enough to take a stand for what he knew was right. Which reminds me of the story of Henry Ward Beecher, when yet a small boy. A teacher in the school he attended asked a boy

Dr. Rewtea

a question which he promptly answered. The teacher appeared displeased, and told the boy to sit down. He asked several other boys the same question, nnd got the same answer. Finally he asked Beecher, and Beecher gave the same answer, but refused to sit down when the teaeher frowned at him. Seeing that Bc-echer was going to defend the answer, the teacher said, "Boys, you were all correct, but only Beecher was sure enough to stand his ground. I was simply trying to teach you the lesson that you must stand by what you know is right." • • • DARE TO STAND ALONE DANIEL knew that he was taking an unpopular position, but ha was willing to be alon» so long i.s he knew he was right He knew that the consequences would take care of themselves. That is the quality of character which America needs today in her youth. It is easy enough to be popular, if you run with the gang; but remember this—the gang is always heading downhill. Daniel stood by his convictions when it was costly. In the final windup, he was the head man. • • • ENDURING INVESTMENTS DANIEL, winning his point, made every hour count toward victory. He not only abstained from strong drink, but used his superior strength to serve the kingdom in such way that his talents were sought out and brought into larger fields of opportunity. Standing by his convictions, be had won over those who at first were disposed to poke fun at him. By superb performance, due to clear thinking and high purpose, Daniel made enduring investments that paid off in big dividends He did not do right for reward, but because he did right, the reward was inevitable. And so it will be with every young man and woman who purposes in his or her heart to do right. • e e GOD'S FAVOR IWANT you to look carefully at verse 17. "God gave them knowledge and skill In all learning and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams." It is impossible to account for Daniel's fortitude apart from his implicit trust in God. Rememoer the incident of Daniel opening his window toward Jercuatom in prayer* God never tails those who stake their all <x> him He will not—cannot let them fail It was because of God’s favor that Daniel and his cumpanions proved themselves ten times better than the young men who defiled themselves. "Who sides with God must always win." e • e CcwyrJe* t>r Iks laMraatioM; Cassell ni uaiii' ’asMeSitir- Mmmos' Scoffers Stay On Even those who scoff at the Bible prstar to live 1* a culture in the dominating ideas of the Bible have been influential The Mbto ia a very dangerous beeto-daeoerous to all systems booed m Breed aad prejudice one

Even the victorious Nationalists found it hard to believe that, with the aid of their allies, the smaller Afrikaner party, they would hold a majority of five seats in the new parliament. Actually, the working majority they will have will be only four, since one seat will be held by the speaker of the new house. What the policy of Malan's new government will be was not clear. As in the case of most opposition parties everywhere, his leadership has been based on attacking the regime in power. Although the Nationalist party won more seats than the United party, it did not get more votes. Twelve candidates. 11 of them in the United party, were unopposed. In the remaining 138 contested seats, the United party obtained 524.23 u votes, the Nationalists 401.834, the Afrikaner party 41.885, the South African party 11.610, the Labor party 27.360, and the balance about 60.000. Wentzel Duplessis, former secretary of the Nationalist leader J. B. M. Hertzog. attributed his
