THE GOOD RESULTS OF PERSECUTION

Aeta 5:12 —C.-6— February tl. Methods Used of God—Divine Approval of the Gospel—Opposition by Sadducees and Chief Priests —Multitudes Believed In Jerusalem —Church Communism Began to Fail. “Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.”—Galatians 6.1. CHE manifestations of love and sympathy amongst the early Christians had a salutary effect in backing up the Apostles’ teachings. The principle is as true today as it was then. The world are apt to read the Gospel influence in the lives of professors before they give heed or venture to believe it. Alas, that we can see so many evidences of the fulfilment of St Paul’s words respecting our day!—that at this time many Would have a form of godliness without its power, and be “lovers

of pleasure more than lovers of God.” (2 Timothy 3:1-5.) The difficulty seems to be that Sectarianism has lost the essence of the Gospel Message which Jesus and the Apostles taught. That loss has made room for various substitutes favored by the

great Adversary; but they are not the Gospel, and do not have the proper power upon the hearts and lives of those who even desire to dp right. The Gospel Message which Jesus and the Apostles taught was expressed in our Lord’s prayer, .“Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth, even as it is in Heaven.” Opposition of Selfishness. Today’s Study shows how the living of the true, simple life of faith, trust, obedience and love had its effect—how many were added to the Church, including “a great multitude of priests.” It shows us, too, how angered were the Sadducees and the official class at that time. Thej' were grieved that the people were taught; for the teachings of the followers of Jesus were so contrary to what they had taught and what they had hoped for. Not believing Prophets, they had been using religion largely as a cloak—“a form of godliness.” Their real hopes were aldtfg the lines of Gentile hopes—of becoming more intimately associated with the Roman Empire and thus obtaining special favor. These religionists feared lest the teaching of Messiah as the coming King of the world would reach the ears of the Roman rulers, and bring upon the Jews ridicule and disfavor, and perhaps take from them some of their liberties and crush all their aspirations respecting the future. Their opposition to the Gospel was, therefore, a selfish one. They had the Apostles arrested and put into prison. But the Lord sent His angel and delivered them; and with good courage they appeared again next day in the Temple, preaching as before. Again the Apostles were arrested, brought before the officials, and commanded to preach no more in Jesus' name. The point of resentment is noted in the words, “Ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrines [teachings], and are liable to bring this man’s blood upon us.” That is to say. It looks as though you might really convince the people that we have committed a great crime in putting to death that fanatical leader of yours, called Jesus. We see this same principle illustrated at the Reformation, when God’s time had come to bring back the Bible to the people after it had been turned

When, under Divine guidance, Wiclif and Tyndale brought the New Testament to the attention of the people in the English language, it marked the start of return to an individual faith and a new beginning of Bible study It has required the centuries since to help Us out of the gross darkness of those twelve hundred years when we were without the Bible and poisoned by the various creeds. No wonder it is still difficult for us to use our common sense in Bible study! Communism a Failure. Recurring to our lesson, we note some of the difficulties of Communism. Favoritism was claimed in the distribution of the necessities. Realizing that they could not undertake to manage a community along earth!}’ lines, the Apostles concluded that they should, as the Master had directed, give themselves entirely to the Gospel work. They appointed seven Deacons to attend to the charities; but evidently these arrangements also by and by failed, and we hear no more of the early Communism. The experience taught us the impossibility of such a practise under our imperfect conditions.

TRY THIS ON FATHER.

Of Course He Can Pass the High School Examinations. If parents are intolerant of the low grades which are not worthy of their children, let them volunteer to show how easily a person of mature years can answer high school examihation questions. A housewife might amuse her little girl by answering the questions in the cooking “exams.” being given this week: Name the five food principals, giving the composition and use of each. Name five methods of cooking and explain each. How may food be kept from season to season? Give a complete classification of the proteins, with an example of each'. ■ Tell about the complete digestion of the protein. iGlve the composition of beef, milk and eggs, and the food value of each. Name the cuts of beef in the hind quarter. Name two tender and two tough cutsand explaiA the method of cooking each. What vegetable should be served with beef at breakfast and at dinner? What are the tests for good chicken, beef, veal, pork and eggs? At what temperature should protein foods be cooked? Fancy being suddenly confronted, on a dark night, with such questions as these, which are saddening the lives of little Johnnie who wishes to graduate from high school next spring: “Tell the story of Beowulf,” or “Name the special contributions of Caedman, Bede, Alfred Layamon, Wycliff, Langland, Gowery and Malory to English literature.” One is perhaps relieved when, in questions propounded to the juniors, he finds: “Give the units of measure with the cost in Kansas City of gas, water and electricity.” A freshman English “exam.” such as this may be answered in rapid tempo to impress the young: “Define the parts of speech, conjugation, tense, case and conjunction. Who is the heroine of ‘lvanhoe?’ Give two reasons, illustrating each. What do you know of the condition of the common people in England during the reign of Richard I.? State simply the meaning of the first three stanzas of Scott’s ‘Lady of the Lake.’ Define verse, foot (metric), dactyl, iambus and tetrameter. Also tell whether ‘a number of mistakes (was or were) made, and whether the speaker as well as the President (was or were) applauded.” Dash off a paragraph on “Should the wages of women be the same as those of

men?” Wind up quickly by answering the following: What is the difference between the English cabinet system and the American? Which is the more democratic? What is-the function of the king in England?’" ‘ Who really governs England? How does England solve the questions of poverty and unemployment? What racial elements constitute an Englishman? For what are Gladstone, Disraeli, Warren Hastings, Joseph Chamberlain, Charles Stewart Parnell, Cecil Rhodes and Adam Smith famous,? Who said that every man has his price? Who was the "old lady of Threadneedle street?” —Kansas City Times.

STATE’S MOVIE LIBRARY.

lowa the First to Preserve History in Moving Pictures. A generation hence the young people of lowa will study the history of their state with the aid of the kinetographic art, as the result of the founding of the first moving picture library for purely historical purposes. This new library marks j another step forward in the work of the collector of historical documents and objects, as it will enable the student of history in the future to visualize the important happenings of the present history-making epoch in lowa. Before many years nearly every state In the union will have its nioving picture library, in the opinion of prominent educators and moving picture men. The founder of the lowa library is Edgar R. Hanlan, curator of the historical department of lowa, who, already, has collected more than 50,000 feet of film in which are depicted scores of current event matters which have happened within the last three years. To this collection will be added, other lowa pictures taken In the coming years... School children 50 years from today will be able to understand more clearly present day customs and manners when they see thrown upon the screen some of the many events that held the attention of their forefathers. Lovers of athletics will find much to Interest them in the films depicting some of the more important football games played early in the twentieth century. The advanced position of their state in the world of agriculture will be better appreciated when they, see how 250,000 lowans gathered each year at the state capital to celebrate a successful crop year. One of the films In the library shows the great Keokuk dam in operation. Another presents In a striking manner the annual "million

dollar” live stock parade at the state fair, one of the greatest exhibitions of fine live stock in the world. Street scenes from all the important elites constitute an important part of the library, which also includes acenes taken in some of the more important factories and industrial plants. When the student of sociology of the latter half of the present century desires to inquire into the progress of the better babies movement he can have recourse to this moving picture library, instead of searching through volumes of musty reports In another section of the building. As rapidly as the films lose their commercial value they are turned over to the historical department of the state. They are stored away in airtight tin containers in steel vaults kept at the proper temperature. These films may be recalled at any time they regain any commercial value, but otherwise they become the property of the library and may -be lent to schools and societies for educational purposes. Calendars will be made of the various subjects treated in each film, or the films may be cut into as many sections as there “are different subjects and catalogued accordingly. This featutfa of the library plan is yet to be worked out.—Harper’s Weekly.
