CHRIST RAISES LAZARUS FROM THE DEAD \ Dr. Gilroy Talks of the Various Miracles of Jesus. The International Uniform Sunday j Sehool Lesson for Feb. 21: Christ the. Resurrection and the Life.—John 11:3344. BY \VM. E. GILROY, I). I). j Editor of The Congregationalist ; L y t\ HAT has been said coneerniiyj j yy the mifacle of the feeding of 1 the five thousand applies equally to the raising of Lazarus from the dead. If a miracle could be explained it would cease to be a miracle. It is difficult to believe that Jesus performed the comparatively few miracles of which there is record in the New Testament without performing a great many others of which we have no record, so that the miraculous things that have been recorded would seem to be there because they symbolize and illustrate the spiritual reality and power of Christ. The miracles are miracles of feeding, healing, giving sight and | giving life. They typify the performance of the body of all that Jesus is powerful and willing to do for the 'souls of men The story of the raising of Lazarus emphasizes alike the loving sym- | pathy and the wonder working power of Christ. His real humanity is expressed in what in our English version is the shortest verse in the Bible, “Jesus wept.” What Jesus j meant to this home at Bethany he j should mean to every home. He had | been in this home sharing its hospitality. He wants to coine into every home sharing its hospitality partaking of its joys and of all of its pleasant relations, but he would come to our homes also when the cloud of sorrow hangs heavily over us.

The Haresfoot Club to Visit Murat
MADISON, Wis., Feb. 20.—“ Mary Ann,” the twenty-eighth annual production of the Haresfoot Club of the University of AVisconsin, will be put on at the Murat theater Tuesday, April 12. This organization composed of male students is the largest club of its kind on the campus and its production is the biggest event on the university schedule. The entire play and all the lyrics for this year have been written by undergraduates, as were those of previous years. Due to the fact that there are no girls in the club, their parts in the play are taken by men. The motto of the Haresfoot world that can work miracles, it is this power of unfoiling love. A Lesson Not long ago there was occasion to recall an incident, related years ago in The Congregationalist, concerning a well-known Congregational minister, who, some forty years ago, apparently died and was laid out for burial. His friends were mournfully awaiting the funeral when a nurse, who had nursed him through an illness some time previously, and who bad been at a distance, without knowing of his apparent death, received a strange inner prompting to go and see him. She found the friends and neighbors gathered in the house of death, but for some reason she felt a strange impulse to chaff the hands and feet of the apparently lifeless body, with the result that before long the man, apparently dead, revived and sat up. He recovered fully and the circumstances fully evidenced were delated in The Congregationalist at the time of his actual death some years later. A Feature A remarkable feature of this case was that thg minister, apparently dead, had been throughout conscious of all that was happening around him. though he could give no sign of life. At first he was seized with
is “all our girls are men, yet every one’s a lady.” Qwing to the great demand for the Haresfoot production outside of Madison, the club Is forced to travel to some of the leading middle western cities. All of the cities that have requested the Haresfoot to come cannot be visited in the limited time alloted them by the university j authorities. Thus a few representative cities have been chosen and Ini dianapolis is one of those. I This year’s musical comedy is full I of action and humor and from all indications it bids fair to become the best play ever put on by the Haresfoot Club. terror of being buried alive, but ultimately, as he lay In that state, -he had what seemed to be a revelation of the presence of Christ, and he declared that a great peace had filled his soul, taking away all fear. , Before one is too skeptical concern ing the miraculous he might well bear in mind such well-attested incidents. However, we come to the larger aspects of our lesson in the concrete statement of the Golden text, “I am the resurrection and the life.” Jesus declares that in him he that believeth, though he die. yet shall live. The gift of God. we are* told, is eternal life. How do we know that this is true? We have the witness of it in the power of Jesus to bring new life to men. That power has been exemplified since the days when he walked In Galilee and Judea. Men whose souls were dead revived at his coming and presence. This is our faith. This is the ground of our hope. It is the power of Jesus to give life that leads us to believe that the life that he gives is eternal. HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF Just two years ago Dorothy Dwan did her first day’s work in pictures Jas an extra at Universal. Now she j is playing a dramatic role for Dallas I Fitzgerald at the same studio.

DOOLEY HEADS BIG GIRL SHOW (Continued From Page 5) kind of a character from those associated with the name of Arlis.. Sylvanus Heythrop, called Old English by his associates, is not the usual Galsworthy hero. The English author, hitherto impartial, almost afraid, as it were, of taking sides with any of his characters, pleads the cause of an octogenarian sinner, who is about to meet his first defeat ar.d who goes to his end magnificently. As Robert L. Stevensoh put it, “gladly he lived and gladly he dies.” To look for a moral in “Old English” may be to find it, but it so richly is embroidered by the author that he will be brave who shall try to reduce the drama to platitudes. AVinthrop Ames has produced “Old English.” Ames staged “Strife” and “The Pigeon” in America. He has brought out many notable plays. It would seem that in Ames Galsworthy meets a producer entirely in sympathy with his work. The cast includes all the players who impressed New York during the two hundred nights “Old English” was acted there. Irby Marshal is leading woman for Mr. Arliss. Ivan F. Simpson will be remembered for his portrayal of AVatklna,the butler, in “The Green Goddess.”* Others in the company are Cecile Dixon, Molly Johnson, Ethel Griffies, Henrietta Goodwin, Murray Kinnell, Robert Harrigan, Henry Morrell Gilbert Cowan.
