Tinge Os Winter In Air Across Nation Temperatures Drop Over Northern Rim United Press International An unmistakable tinge of winter was in the aijr Saturday as snow flurries increased in strength and number and temperatures dropped along the nation's northern rim. * Forecasters predicted that many people from the Dakotas across the Great Lakes region and in New England would get their first taste of snow Saturday. There was drizzle in the Northwest, and generally fair skies in the lower half of the country. '• Flurries were reported Friday night in the northern Great Lakes area, upper New York and western Pennsylvania, leaving little or no snow cover. An inch of new snow covered Grand Marais in upper Michigan, while Kinross Air Force Base reported three inches, Bradford, Penn., two inches, and Syracuse, N. Y., one inch. There were also traces of snow in Chicago Friday, but none stayed on the ground. A general cooling trend was noted across the Midwest into the Virginias and up the Atlantic Coast. Elkins, W. Va. reported a 17-degree drop in 24 hours, and drops of 10 degrees and more were common.

I Creamed a I CREAMED COMMENTS ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON, TEACHING BY PARABLES. MARK 4:1-12, for Sunday, November 30. In this lesson, Jesus is preaching from a boat on the shores of Galilee. He has been through a strenuous period in his works of teaching and healing. He has chosen his twelve disciples and now he faces an inquiring crowd. The lesson demonstrates Jesus’ use of parables to convey his teachings and emphasizes the fact that His kingdom grows in spite of discour,Jging_Circurnstances. , V. 1. “And he began to teach by the seaside: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.’’ Such a multitude could not have been accommodated in any synagogue and outdoor preaching was the only practical way of bringing the group a religidus message. Jesus u s e d a boat to avoid the press of the crowd about him, allowing him to preach more efectively. Vs. 2,3, 4. “And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine, .. . Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow: .. . And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the wayside, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.” A parable was an invented story, true to life, and from which a spiritual lesson could be drawn. Sowing was done by hand in those days and was understood by all his hearers. The sower represents anyone who spreads the gospel. Since the seed was scattered by hand, some of it was bound to fall on the hard footpath that went acroos the field, where it lay until devoured by the birds. This footpath could be likened to indiffer-

ent. hafd-hearted people. Vs. 5, 6. “And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth: and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth: but when the sun was up t it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away,’* Much of the soil in Palestine was very thin, covering rocks and stanes which prevented the roots from penetrating down to a supply of maisture and causing them to wither very soon. In these verses, the seeds falling on stony ground could be likened to those shallow, impulsive people who hear the gospel, seem. enthusiastic for a timehbut soon become discouraged when temptations come and lose their faith. V. 7. "And some fell among thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.” This soil already contained thorns, and when the good seeds grew, the thorns grew also and choked them. The seeds in thorny ground m a y be likened to those who receive the Christian message half heartedly without giving complete allegiance, desiring to maintain all their I worldly advantages and at the same time the advantages of Christian living. i V.B. “And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, come thirty, some sixty, and some an hundred.” The farmer who spends his time work-, ing even in stony soil, removing the weeds and carefully cultiva-, ting it, is bound to reap a gpod. harvest. The good soil and the harvest may be likened to those people who hear the Christian | message, understand it, and apply: it to their lives in Christian service. Christians differ in their' ability to serve, just as harvests differ in quantity. V. 9. ‘And he said unto them. He that hath ears to hear let him hear.” Jesus implies there is more in the story than appears on the surface, suggesting that there arc many who listen without hearing, I hear without understanding, and understand without any commitment of their lives to Christian service. Vs. 10, 11, 12. “And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable ... And he said unto them. Unto you is given the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without all these things are done in parables: . . . That seeing they may see,

and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.” The disciples were fortunate In having close fellowship with Christ and learning first hand the Christian message; but to the majority, who were slow to understand or unwilling to acept the truth, he spoke in parables to make himself more easily understood; but even then,'he knew his message fell on deaf ears and hardened hearts.
