SYRACUSE BANK DEPOSITS GUftRftNTEED BY THE AMERICAN GUARANTY CO. Guaranteed Deposits give the last and strongest security to bank depositors and removes the possible doubts of the most timid person having savings. Saving for the security of old age j and the possible rainy day ought not | be hidden away but ought to be made | to earn something. The State Bank of Syracuse pays three per cent, on savings while giving the depositor se- | curity equal to that of government bonds. This guaranty of deposits is in ad- < dition to the personal liability of the £ stockholders which, in itself, provides | ample security for all deposits; but to :■ make the security doubly secure this f guaranty feature has been added to f the Bank’s system of sound and satisfactory business principles. Saving j; accounts are specially invited and will | be accepted in amounts of one dollar f or more.

DUCK SHOOTERS NOW ARE BUSY Federal Law Gives Them Fifteen Days To Shoot Water Fowl This is the first opportunity Hoosier hunters have had to shoot ducks and geese since the federal migratory bird law went into effect, and as the law spoiled their spring shooting, they will probably be keener than ever for the sport. The season for ducks and geese will be open from Sept. 1 to Dec. 15, and then the firm hand of the federal government will again protect these birds. Snipe and plover are also legitimate game during this period. A warning is issued to all hunters through the office of the state fish and game commissioner not to shoot prairie chickens during this period. The various birds have different seasons in which they are protected. Prairie chickens may not be killed in Indiana for about three years—until the five-year period described by law has expired. Quail and grouse may not be shot until November 10 to December 20, inclusive. Quail shooting is the principal sport of Indiana hunters. The squirrel season is now open and will remain open until October L Some precautionary ‘ don’ts” for the benefit of hunters are as follows: Don’t kill game birds between sunset and sunrise. Don’t kill song birds. Dont’t destroy bird nests, unless those of sparrows and birds of prey. Don’t use hunting licenses not issued in your name. They are not transferable. To The Public —We wish to thank our many friends and customers for the patronage they have given us during the time we have been here, and our aim has been to deal justly with all as near as is possible to do so, and therefore we have nothing to regret or’take back and we feel that all have been dealing with us have been justly dealt with, and therefore we wish every one prosperity and good luck to all, we also wish to say that all parties knowing themselves indebted to us to call at once and settle their accounts, as all accounts are now due and must be settled either by cash or bankable note.

SUNDAYJSCHOOL Lesson Xl.—Third Quarter, Aor Sept. 13, 1914. THE INTERNATIONAL SEMES. Text of the Lesson, Matt, xxv, 1-13. Memory Verses, 1-4—Golden TWkt, Matt. xxv, 13—'Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Notwithstanding all His teaching and His mafiy mighty works, the question of Isa. 1111, 1, still remained. “Who hath believed our report?’’ Many of the chief rulers believed on Him, but because of the Pharisees did not confess Him for fear of being put out of the synagogue, for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God (John xll, 42, 43). After His many woes upon the Pharisees He spoke of the desolation which would come upon Jerusalem until His coming again because of their rejection of Him (Matt, xxiii, 33-39). Instead of admiring the magnificence of the temple, as His disciples desired Him to do, He said that the I whole thing would be thrown down and not one stone be left upon another. I As He sat upon the Mount of Olives j over against the temple Peter and * James and John and Andrew asked i Him privately of the end of the age and when these things would be (Matt, xxiv, 1-3; Mark xili, 1-4; Luke xxi, ■ 5-7). His reply is given in these three ' chapters and is of greater length than i any other recorded answer to a ques tion. Dr. Weston says that to no I vision but that of Jesus was the comi Ing overthrow visible. He saw what seems to occur to no student of history—that the destiny of a nation, as that of an Individual, is determined by its relation to Christ. In every sentence of the discourse there seem to resound Christ’s open- | lug words, "Take heed that no man j deceives you.” Wars and rumors of i wars will characterize the whole age, but the believer must not be troubled (Matt, xxiv, 6). At the end of the age there shall be a time of trouble such as never was before and never will be again, and immediately after that tribulation shall the Son of Man come in the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory (Matt, xxiv, 21, 2931). He will find things at Ills coining in glory as they were in the days of Noah (Matt, xxiv, 27-39). The lesson of today and next week Is found only in Matt, xxv, which chapter consists of three parts—the ten virgins, the talents and the judgment of the nations. The middle portion we have already considered in connection with the parable of the pounds. Unless we learn to distinguish between the Jew, the gentile and the church of God (I Cor. x, 32) we may miss much in the matter of Interpretation, but the great thing is to get the heart lesson for ourselves—the message from His heart to our hearts. He is still, at the time of our lesson, dealing specially with Israel (the Jews) and has only mentioned the church as something yet to be built (Matt xvl, 18), but wherever we read in the Bible there Is a message for the heart of man. The message for my heart- in chapter xxiv is that I must let no man deceive me; that 1 must patiently endure; that 1 must be watchful, ready, faithful, doing. In the story of the ten virgins I learn that lamps are no use without oil. that mine should always be trimmed, filled and burning brightly, never tuckering or dim or going out, and that I must be ever ready and watchful. From Zech, iv I learn that to have a constant supply of oil I must know and abide in Him who, as my great High Priest, not only redeems me, but ever lives for me, and as my King or Lord controls all ' my life, desiring to work in me to will 1 and to do of His good pleasure. Then I shall 1 know the meaning of “Not by 1 might nor by power, but by My Spirit, i saith the Lord of Hosts” (Zech, iv, 6). : Then shall I, controlled by the Spirit, ' make good use of the talents intrusted to me and hear His “Well done, good and faithful servant” I May it by His grace be our happy ' privilege, dear reader, yours and mine, i What a terrible thing it will be to be ' only professedly His and to hear Him say, “Verily 1 say unto you I know you not” (verse 12; compare chapter vii, 21-23). Compare also the wise and , foolish of chapter vii, 24-29. What a i mercy that the door is not yet shut I (verse 10; Luke xili, 25). W hat a i blessing to be shut in with Him, as ! Noah was in the ark (Gen. vii, 1-16). As to the interpretation of the paraI ble, it specially concerns Israel, for the j coming of the Son of Man (verse 13) ‘ is always the coming of the Lord JeI sus Christ in power and glory to judge ' and w reign, which means His coming i with His saints after He shall have I received them unto Himself. Both the Vulgate and Syriac translations give the first verse of our lesson thus: “Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, who, taking their lamps, went out to meet the bridegroom and the bride.” It is the return of Christ after the marriage of the Lamb and has some special refer ence to Israel. If ycm cannot put your hand on the Syriac translation get a Roman Catholic Testament, which is a translation of the Vulgate MS., and verify for yourself this translation. If you cannot agree with others as to the interpretation of this or any other passage do not fail to get your own heart message from the Lord.

tract of the resolutions: “As Americans, as Pythians, as Fraternalists, we are unalterably opposed to shedding the blood of our fellows. We believe that war should have no place in this advanced age of civilization, and that it is unnecessary now for either individuals or nations to resort to the arbitrament of the sword, but that reason, and equity, and justice and right should govern.’’ In all the addresses the sentiment expressed was that in this time of social unrest, and the great war in Europe, the spiiit of brotherhood should be intensified, and increased. men realize as never before that God is the Father of us all, .and all men are our brothers.
