I SYRACUSE BANK DEPOSITS GLftRftNTEED BY THE AMERICAN GUARANTY CO. Guaranteed Deposits give the last and strongest security to bank depos- a itors and removes the possible doubts ! of the most timid person having sav- ; ings. ' Saving for the security of old age | and the possible rainy day ought not | be hidden away but ought to be made I to earn something. The State Bank h of Syracuse pays three per cent, on l| savings while giving the depositor se- | curity equal to that of government | bonds. g I This guaranty of deposits is in ad- | Idition to the personal liability of the | stockholders which, in itself, provides | i ample security for all deposits; but to « make the security doubly secure this > guaranty feature has been added to the Bank’s system of sound and satis- < factory business principles. Saving | accounts are specially invited and will | | be accepted in amounts of one dollar | or more. to ' fl $ MR.

SUNDAY SCHOOL. ■ * Lesson Xlll.—Third Quarter, For Sept. 27, 1914. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of th® Lesson, John iii, 14-21 (Quarterly Review) — Golden Text, Rev. iii, 11—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Lesson I.—The Laborers in the Vineyard, Matt, xx, 1-16. Golden Text. Matt, v, 45, “He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and the good and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust.” He compares His people Israel to a vineyard in Isa. v and is grieved because they disappoint Him in the matter of fruit. Here it is a question of labor and reward. Many are mere hirelings and serve Him for so much. Better leave it all to Him. Lesson ll.—Greatness Througli Service, Mark x, 32-45. Golden Text, Mark x, 45, “The Son of Man also came not to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give His life a ransom for many.” While He talked of suffering they thought only of position in His Kingdom. When Peter asked Him not to think of suffering He said that savored of man and Satan, not of God (Matt, xvi, 23). Let us lay it well to heart. Lesson Hl.—Blind Bartimaeus, Mark x, 46-52. Golden Text, Isa. xxxv, 5. 6, “Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.” The blind man realized his need and his opportunity and would not be quieted. Such perseverance wins, and he was heard and answered and followed Jesus in the way. More requests would be granted if He could see like results. Lesson IV.—The Pounds and the Talents, Luke xix, 11-27; Matt, xxv, 14-30. Golden Text, Matt, xxv, 21, “Well done, good and faithful servant; * ♦ • enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.” Saved by grace in order to work and then rewarded according to our works. His word to each Is, “Occupy till I come.” He gives opportunities, works in us and through us and gives us the credit of it. Lesson V.—The Triumphal Entry, Mark xl, 1-11. Golden Text, Zech, ix, 0, “Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion. • ♦ ♦ Behold, thy King cometh unto thee.” All that has ever been written concerning Him must be fulfilled (Luke xxiv, 44) .and as literally as was this prediction. Literal, unless plainly a figure, is the only way to read the Bible, and we shall always find everything just as He said or as it is written (Luke xix, 32; xxii, 13). Lesson Vl.—The Barren Fig Tree, Mark xi, 12-2)6. Golden Text, Matt vll, 20, “By their fruits ye shall know them.” The apparent loyalty to Him of the last lesson was not real. They were, like the fig tree, all leaves, no fruit: all outward. Instead of prayer communion with God, It was merchandise even in the house of prayer. Their need and ours was faith in God without doubting. Lesson Vll.—The Wicked Husbandmen. Matt xxi. 33-46. Golden Text Matt xxi. 42, “The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the head of the corner.” This is another vineyard story, but this time it is a question of fruit for the owner, instead of which His servants are ill treated and His own son slain. But the rejected Son will yet be the accepted Messiah at the end of this age. * Lesson VIII.—The Weddding Feast, Matt, xxii, 1-14. Golden Text, Luke xiii, 34, ‘Oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem, ♦ ♦ * how often would I, * * * and ye would not!” The lessons of this portion are somewhat similar to the last—a slighted and despised invitation, with ill treatment of the messengers and the self righteous presumption of one who would not accept a wedding garment. Everywhere and at all times it is the same story of man’s enmity to God (Rom. vili, 7.8). Lesson IX.—A Day of Questions, Matt. xxii. 15-22. Golden Text, Matt, xxii, 21, “Render therefore unto Caesar the things that' are Caesar’s and unto God the things that are God’s.” The unsaved bear the image of this world and its god and can only render service to him. The saved ones bear the image of God and are expected to serve the Living and True God, living only to please Him and desiring only His approval. . Lesson X.—The Great Commandments, xii, 28-44. Golden Text, Luke x, 27, “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart. * • ♦ and thy neighbor as thyself.” It is never a question of our keeping the law. which is intended to show us our guilt and is too holy for sinful man to keep, but the one great question for us is. What think ye of Christ? What is our relation to Him? Is our all fully yielded to Him? Lesson Xl.—The Ten Virgins, Matt xxv, 1-13. Golden Text. Matt, xxv, 13, “Watch, therefore, for we know not the day nor the hour.” As we saw in o.ur lesson, this probably refers to Israel at the time of the return of Christ with His church after the marriage of the Lamb, but the message for each believer is to see that our lamp is filled, well trimmed and always burning. Lesson Xll.—The judgment of the nations, Matt, xxv, 31-46. Golden Text, Matt, xxv, 45, “Inasmuch as ye did it not unto one of these least, ye did it I not unto me.” Salvation depends upon • our union with Christ, and all else dei pends upon our understanding of our I oneness with Him. We must see ourI selves, if we are redeemed, as sharing i Hts throne and His glory. Then we shall never wonder if we are either sheep or goats in Matt xxv. —Let Richhart do your pressing and cleaning. Work and prices are right. Over Klink’s meat market —GERBLELE and NEVER FAIL Flour are the best at any price. To pay more is extravagant, to pay less is not true economy.
