THE GREATEST OF ALL THEATERS.

In a few weeks the winter nights will be upon us, and our thoughts will turn again to the theater and to other forms of amusement. But there is one theater which we should ever keep in our mindst — which should have first place in our thoughts—first call upon our time and our energies—which is capable of affording us greater enjoyihent than all others combined. It is the THEATER OF GOD! It is the church!

Varied forms of amusements are right and should be encouraged. They are necessary to a proper development of mind and body. But the Theater of God Is essential to the proper formation of character —to the creation of zeal in the service of RIGHT—to the inculcation of ideals of honor and justice in the hearts of all peoples. Other theaters come, and thrive, and pass away. But the Theater of God lives forever. It can never die. Others afford us amusement for the hour, relaxation for the moment. But the acts of the Theater of God never pale. They live as long as memory lasts, and in the end they lift us to the realms of perpetual joy. It is good that we enjoy life — that we seek recreation—that we find honorable means of driving dull tare away.

But it is even better that we include in our program weekly visits to that theater which is the essence of all, goodness, of all greatness, and of every bliss.

In mapping out bur course for the winter months let us set aside each Sunday for a visit to the greatest of all theaters, the Theater of God. And much wisdom, and peace, and contentment will be our earthly reward.,

There is room for us all, and no ticket is required at the door.

"MADE IN AMERICA.”

The "Made in America" movemen is sweeping the country. It has penetrated every city, village and hamlet, and is still hunting for fresh fields to invade. Everybody seems to want goods "Made jn America,” and for so much, at least, we may thank the war in Europe. it is a good slogan. It keeps' American people employed, and it keeps American money in circulation at home. It is good for our country, and it is good for each individual. Push it along!

“BOUGHT AT HOME."

When buying goods •‘made in America" go just a little further, be a little more patriotic, and BUY GOODS AT HOME! It is GOOD to buy goods made in America, but it is even BETTER to buy them from HOME MERCHANTS. By buying American made goods you keep your money in circulation in America. But by buying those goods from our lpcal merchants you keep your money iu circulation at HOME! >• Every man and woman talks patriotism and likes to be considered patriotic. Lets' practice what we preach. Buy American made goods AT HOME—-form OUR merchants. That is patriotism!

GOES THROUGH WAR CAMPS

Chicagoan Sees French and English Prisoners in Germany. , ■ Chicago. Oct. 20. —A survey of conditions in Europe just prior to the declaration of war and since the conflict began was given by John V. Steger of this city, who has just returned from a four months' trip abroad. "The sights of suffering and horriWe scenes of wounded and dying prisonel's terrified the members of our party. In I’lm. Germany, my birthplace, I saw 12,000 French and 1,100 English prisoners and 75 machine guns that had ,been captured. I saw 1.800 machine guns in Frankfort, Berlin and Stuttgart that hail been captured. I have heard nothing but the highest praise for. President Wilson in the countries I visited. He is greatly admired."

BROOKLYN TABERNACLE

BIBLE-STIIDYSDN

AN UNFAITHFUL TREASURER'S FALL. Matthew 26:14-25, 47; 27:3-10—OeL 25. ■‘Woo unto that man by whom the Son of Mon is betrayed. Matthew M. 14. hailed from Sbtith<»Ht PalV eatine, while the other eleven I of Jeans’ disciples were Gailleans. It li inferred that Ih>canse of superior business qualities Judas was made treasurer of the Apostolic company. Friends of Jesus noted that He and His disciples needed to give their entire time to the heralding of the Kingdom. It is not strange, therefore, that we read that some voluntarily donated money for their support.—Luke 8:3. Such voluntary donations mad>> It proper that there should be a treasurer for the company, and that he should be of superior business acumen. We find no reason for believing that Judas was a bad man when selected by Jesu? to be an Apostle. We have every reason to believe that he developed a bad character even under the most favorable influences—in the continual comf»a n v-es .leSirs and the other A post lea, and with the Message of the Kingdom Continually in his ears. There was. however, a beginning of his deflection; and the Scriptures intimate that his temptation fame along the lines of avarice, selfishness, love of money. It is still true that “the love of money is a root of all evil.”

A Fulfilment of Prophecy. Afterward, apparently, the disciples learned that Judas was a thief (John 12:0) Doubtless even when appropriating moneys contributed to the support of the little company, Judas could have some plausible excuse; for sin is always deceptive. Brooding on the subject increased his desire for money, and led his active business mind to batch out the plot for the betrayal of Jesus. The record is that when Judas perceived that Jesus had been condemned, he took the money back to the chief nriests. wishing to undo* his deed. They laughed at him. declaring that it was no concern of theirs, but his own. if be had betrayed innocent blood. Because it was blood money they could not put it into the Temple Treasury again. Instead, they purchased there

with a piece of cheap land, a potter’ s field, as a burial place for strangers. Thus they fulfilled to the very letter a prophecy which they had probably forgotten. Matthew 27:0, 10. The account implies that Judas was surprised wbeu Jesus was

condemned. Apparently he surmised that Jesus, brought to the crucial test, would assert Himself as the Messiah and would triumph over His enemies. Judas thus probably thought that be would hasten the establishment of the Kingdom, in which he hoped to share. Thus lie would shine as a hero, as well as demonstrate his financial wisdom and his suitability for the post of Grand Treasurer of the Kingdom. In addition, apparently he was a little angry at Jesus because the Master had approved of Mary’s conduct in respect to the spikenard. It was under the impulse of that resentment that he first sought the priests and the scribes to negotiate for the betrayal.

No Hope of a Resurrection. We are uot suggesting excuses for Judas. No excuse can properly be offered for treachery to God and His Cause. We merely point out the fact that every transgressor must first con sent in his own mind to his wrong course: the mind, the conscience, must be perverted before each step of sin Heuce Jesus’ words are fully justified: “It had been good for that man had be not been born.” Such treachery, such willingness to hand over his Friend, his Teacher, the One whom he had accepted as the Son of God and through whom he had expected the Messianic Kingdom, was perfidy of the worst type. He had been constantly with the Savior, and hence knew of the purity of His life, knew of His loyalty to God. There fore these things constituted his responsibility and his guilt. The fact that he committed suicide implied a fulfilment of Jesus’ words—that Judas wished that he had not been born. Yet there is a hope for other

went to his own place, his appro priate place, does not signify that he or anybody else is to be tortured eternally as a punishment for sin Rather, his own place was hopeless oblivion, without prospect of a resur, rection. He died like a natural brute beast, nor could argument be shown why such a character should ever have any future opportunity. The fact that God had foreknown that one of the Twelve would betray Jesus, the fact that the purchase of the field with the blood-money had been prophesied, did not alter the responsibility of Judas for his own fall ft was not God’s foreknowledge that Injured him, but his own wrong course
