WEEKLY SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON The Story of Paul in Thessalonica and Berea
The international uniform Sunday school lesson for Sept. 13: Paul in Thessalonica and Berea. Acta 17:1-12. By William E. Gilroy Editor of The Congregationalist "Lewd fellows of the baser Sort”' have made a good bit of trouble in the world and even the sphere of religion has not been free from their mischief-making. It is strange that trouble-makers should choose the holy field of religion in- which to manifest their narrow, vindictive and quarrelsome spirit, but it has been so all through the history of the Christian church, and it vas so in the beginning. Paul’s ministry in Thessalonica was fairly successful. He began by visiting the synagogue as was his custom, and on three Sabbaths he reasoned with the Jews there, persuading them that in Christ was the fulfillment of their own Scriptures. Women Believed A number believed, and also there were "devout Greeks and chief women" who accepted Paul’s message. | But the Jews who -'lid not believe* immediately made trouble. “They were moved with envy.” we art old. and they were not above Instigating others to do foul things that they would noi do themselves. They took unto them “certain lewd fellows of the baser cort” and gathered a company and made a tumult, coming to the house of Jason where Paul and Silas were being entertained. Jason’s guests apparently had departed, hut the mob took Jason and certain of his fellow Christians and brought them before the rulers of the city. The accusation expressed a truth the nature of which they could not perceive. “These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also.” They could not have defined the nature of Christianity hetter. It is exactly that, to turn the world upside down, or rather rightside up, and set upon its sure spiritual foundations. Note the hypocrisy of these Jews and the way in which their hypocrisy was expressed. They had no love for Caesar or for the Roman Empire, hut they made the matter one of patriotism and loyalty. Countrary to Caesar They did not meet Jason and his companions with argument, but they accused them of teaching things contrary to the decrees of Caesar and saying “that there was another king, one Jesus.” The rulers of the city did not care Tor the religious side of the matter, but they were
New Features at Keith’s Roltare Eggleston, manager of B. F. Keith's, has made arrangements for the exclusive first showing of Hal Roach's comedy stars. "Our Gang,” in his theater starting tomorrow when the winter season of big time vadueville opnes. This “gang” will appear next week in their latest release "Your Own Back Yard." The famous pickaninny ballad, "Stay in Your Own Back Yard” gave Robert McGowan, director of the famous troupe of juverile comedians his idea for the comedy. One day when the kids were resting between scenes of another comedy, they were amusing themselves by giving renditions of their favorite songs. When it cam® Farina's turn to sing, the little colored member of the “Gang” sang a song that his mammy had taught him almost before he was able to talk. It was "Stay In Your Own Back Yard,” and McGowan was so struck by the pathos and haunting melody of the old song, that he got. the inspiration to make a comedy, using the balad as the main theme.

apparently troubled over this charge of disloyalty. Jason and his companions gave secunty, however and they were allowed to go. But the city was not safe for Paul and Silas, and their friends sent them by night to Berea. Here again Paul comes into the synagogues and discusses rfhgton. It was the place of opportunity, but it was likewise the place of danger.

“Greeks and noble women” were among those who gave their adherence to tne new faith. The golden text for this lesson is expressive of the spirit in which Paul preached and sought others to consider matters of religion. “Prove all things, 'hold fast tha.t which is good.” Christianity began, and spread, in •its reasonableness, in its appeal to mind and conscience. Jrs power still depends upon making Its truth and its reasonableness evident to men and womenl Paul’s methods have not played out. but would produce | effective results today.
