Improved II SUNDAY Uniform I CCT-IACH International II □vllWl. -> LESSON •> Bv HAROLD L. LUN" - ''ST D. D. Dean of The Moody Bible Institute (Released by Wester Union.! Lesson for February 11 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts selected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education: used by permission. THE PERILS OF REJECTING CHRIST LESSON TEXT—Matthew 21:28-43. GOLDEN TEXT—I am the way. the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.—John 14:6. Fearlessly facing crucifixion within a few days, Jesus stood in the temple, there facing His bitter enemies and replying to their attacks in words such as no man ever spake. He brought them face to face with the very essence of sin, which is the rejection of Christ. Their own words condemned them, but when they should have repented, they became embittered and hardened in their sin. Let no one who reads these lines follow their example, but if the Holy Spirit brings conviction, turn to Him in repentance and faith. Every Sunday School lesson is of great importance, but possibly no lesson we shall ever have to teach will be as important as this one, for it deals very plainly with the awful peril of rejecting Christ. Eternal destiny depends upon the choices made in response to this lesson. Let every one of us study it and teach it with solemn earnestness. I. Actions Speak Louder Thao Words (vv. 28-32). All church members, who have come into that relationship by smoothly spoken words of acceptance and devotion to Christ which then have not been lived out in the daily walk, may see themselves pictured in the son who courteously and glibly assured his father that he could depend on him, and then promptly went his own way. They will see that they need to repent and substitute real heart-moving and life-changing action for their words, lest the harlots and publicans pass them and go into heaven before them. Professing church member without any evidence of God’s power in your life, turn to Him now! Note the word of encouragement to repentant sinners. Perhaps someone who reads this paragraph has at some time rejected Christ and has since thought that he could not turn back, that it was too late for him to do the thing which his heart tells him to do even though his lips have spoken unkind words of rejection. Friend, consider the one who said, “I will not,” but who did his father’s will. Come to the Saviour now; you will find Him ready to receive you. 11. Selfish Unbelief Results in Christ-Rejection (vv. 33-41). This parable clearly relates to the Israelites who had rejected the; prophets sent to them by God and who were now about to kill His Son. The heartbreaking story of Israel’s unbelief and rejection of Christ and the judgment which has been upon them all the years since then, is not something over which we should gloat, but rather something which should move us to tears and prayer for our Jewish friends. After all, are we any better than they? Are not the appalling majority of Gentiles walking in that same road of selfish unbelief which leads inevitably to the rejection of Christ? i No man or woman can go on selfishly taking the benefits of God, using them for self advantage or comfort, turning a deaf ear to the cries of God’s messengers, and hope to have any ultimate result other than Christ-rejection. It is high time that thoughtless people who perhaps have no deliberate intention to be wicked or to turn Christ away, should awaken to the fact that they are doing just that by their manner of living. 111. Rejection of Christ Does Not Defeat God (vv. 42, 43). At first glance one wonders why Christ at this point turned so abruptly from the figure of the vineyard to that of the cornerstone. “The reason why He leaves for a moment the image of the vineyard, is because of its inadequacy to set forth one important part of the truth which was needful to make the moral complete, namely this, that the malice of the Pharisees should not defeat the purpose of God—that the Son should yet be the heir—that not merely vengeance should be taken, but tliat He should take it. Now this is distinctly set forth by the rejected stone becoming the head of the corner, on which the builders stumbled and fell, and were broken —on which they were now already stumbling and falling, and which, if they set themselves against it to the end, would fall upon them and crush and destroy them utterly” (Trench). God was not defeated by the crucifixion of Christ. Christ will not be defeated simply because men reject Him in the world. We who are on His side, we who are the followers of the Lord are on the victorious side. Those who oppose Him and speak ill of His name may appear to be victors for the moment, but the judgment of God is yet to come upon them.

“The Name Is Familiar—- —<— BY FELIX B. STREYCKMANS and ELMO SCOTT WATSON

Pompadour CWER since about 1895, Americans have called a straight-back-off-the-forehead hairdress a pompadour. But the word was in use in France since the early part of the Eighteenth century when the Marquise de Pompadour was mistress of Louis XV. And the French didn’t confine the word to describing her hairdress.

- bB Pompadour

Everything that was in vogue during the time Mme. Pompadour was Louis* naughty playmate was named for her. ■ Various items of apparel were included. like the iong coats the | men wore with | their knee breeches and powdered wigs. Those long sticks they car-

ried that looked like Bo Peep’s except that they had a silver ball on the top instead of a crook, were called pompadour sticks. A shade of pink was ca’led pompadour pink. Even a fish has been named the pompadour, not because it wears its scales straight back or carries a stick but because it is that same shade of passionate pink that Bashed across Louis’ court when he had a date. The Marquise de Pompadour’s given name—the name she wjjs known by until she made good with the king—was Jean Poisson. Poisson is French for fish, so naming a fish pompadour was merely returning the compliment. * * ♦ Teddy Bear “UHE coy, mild teddy bear, the I idol of all small children, was named after the brusque, forceful Theodore Roosevelt, as a result of a bear hunt down in Mississippi during November, 1902. 6 For 10 days “Teddy” and his companions searched in vain for big game. One morning the cry of ‘Bear!” was raised and the President hurried out of his tent to discover a small, frightened cub which had been dragged into camp for him to shoot. “Take him away!” snorted Teddy contenwtuously. “If I shot that little fellow I would be ashamed to look into the faces of my children.” When Clifford K. Berryman, cartoonist for the Washington Post, heard of the incident, he drew this cartoon: Overnight the cartoon became famous and soon the “teddy bear” became the subject of innumerable verses and stories. Then the toymakers took advantage of its vogue and it became a more popular toy for children than the panda of today. ♦ * ♦ Lavalliere THE piece of jewelry known as a lavalliere has been out of style for many years—but it carried on for two centuries the name of the duchess of Lavalliere for whom it was named. She was born in 1644 and died in 1710, noted for being the mistress of Louis XIV and for her affection for pendant jewelry which hung from her throat by a chain.

B HBK Mme. Lavalliere

She was known as Francoise Louise de Labaume Le Blanc, and was born at Tours, France, the daughter of an army officer. She did not become the duchess of Lavalliere until she bore her third child. The first two died, but the third lived and was recog-

nized by Louis as his daughter. In letters-patent he made the mother a duchess and conferred upon her the estate of Vaujours, which gives you a rough idea of how the French tried to hush those matters up in those days. The same year, she gave birth to a son, but Louis was interested in someone else then and the duchess finally spent her remaining days in a convent . . . lucky at that that she had nothing around her throat when she left Louis except pendant jewelry.

Pieced Border for Kitchen Curtains By RUTH WYETH SPEARS rj O YOU remember this oldfashioned Saw Tooth quilt pattern? It<»has been used for the border of many a handsome quilt. It is so effective and so simple to piece that it should serve more decorative purposes. Here it trims kitchen curtains of unbleached muslin. It surprises one a little to see how modern it looks. Cut a piece of stiff paper in a perfect JOIN SQUARES M STRIPS MS TO FACE CURTAIN EDGES square and then cut diagonally through the center. One half will make your triangle pattern. The size suggested in the sketch makes a very striking border. If a very strong, bright color is used for the plain triangles, a narrower border in this design will also make a good showing. NOTE: Mrs. Spears has prepared for our readers a set of three Quilt Block Patterns from her favorite Early American designs. Included in the set is the Kaleidoscope, and the Whirlwind., The th’rd is the Ann Rutledge,, which Mrs. Spears sketched from an original in the Rutledge Tavern at New Salem, 111., where AbeLincoln boarded, and where he courted the proprietor’s daughter, according to the romantic legend so familiar to movie goers. It is an unusual variation of the Ninepatch, and rich with historical background. For set of three complete patterns, send 10 cents in coin to Mrs. Spears, Drawer 10. Bedford Hills, New York.
