The lessons for the quarter center ' anc j wors hip service. Sermon subject
chiefly In Paul. A good method <>f review will be to study Paul the man. A method also effectively used in senior and adult classes Is to summarize rite facts and state the leading teaching of the lesson. Assignment in this case should be rande a week In advance. For this method the following suggestions are offered:
Lesson for October 4.
Being hemmed in on all sides, a vision was given Paul of a man of Macedonia pleading for help. Paul moved forward in response to this vision. Our visions should be translated into ac-

Lesson for October 11. The casting out of a spirit of divination from a young woman resulted In bringing Paul and Silas before the magistrates on a false charge. Without opportunity for self-defense, they were mercilessly beaten and remanded to jail, from which they were miraculously delltered. The jailer was converted. God will make fruitful the ministry of those who are faithful. Lesson for October 18. In Thessalonica and Berea Paul preached a suffering and risen Christ to the Jew first The success of his ministry so aroused certain Jews that n riot ensued. Without fear Paul continued to preach Christ, and a vigorous church was established. Lesson for October 28. Alone, Paul came to the rich, cultured, and licentious city of Corinth. Here God gave him an encouraging vision, assuring him of divine protec-
tion.

of 1933. The United States census bureau will assist council statiticians
in making computations.
A definite program of safety achievement, not only in definite highway accident reductions but also in engineering progress, educational work and traffic law’ enforcement will fotm the basis of the awards and the “safety city” in each of the six groups will be named at the conclusion of the 12 months’ contest. If results justify a continuance of the program it
will be made a yearly event.
Each city entering the contest will be asked to name an official body, preferably selected by .the mayor, to handle details and keep the local safety fires burning throughout the year. This steering group may be the police department, the automobile club, the American Legion, or some other local civic group, or if preferred, the local
safety council.
