During the past thirty years the Moslem advance has moved tegrly 1,000 nfrles farther south. Jaidm’s appeal to Africans lies mainly in its lack of a color bar, its brotherhood, and its simple rule of life which does not have the stigma of being European, says the Cairo Times.

I J, |, ~„ , i I Discussion on ft ’ Questions > ii i<saegggl ‘1 DISCUSSION QUESTIONS ON I THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON, THE RISE OF DAVID, for Sunday, ; April 26. 1. What characteristics of David i qualified him for his success and < popularity? 2. Why was Saul rejected of God? 1 3. In. what ways do ehvy and 1 jealousy affect one's personality? j 4. How does a person react or- ] dinarily to a demotion? 5. How does God help us meet < both our successes and failures? CLERICUS SAYS: Every nor- • mal person wants to be liked and j be popular, but popularity presents j some real hazards. It can so possess an individual that it destroys j his sense of values. All sound character goes back, both for its in- ( ception and its stability, to reli- j gious faith. David was great in his j human relationships because he , was a great man of God. Envy , van make the strongest ‘ man a e weakling and it is one of the most dangerous pitfalls of prosperity. Prosperity and success should be regarded as a further stewardship from God and not destroy our humility. MISSIONARY Tenth and Dayton Streets Gerald I. Gerig, pastor 9 a.m., Sunday school hour.
