REGISTER regrets that it has not space
to give complete summary to this
splendid speech.
AMONG THE EXHIBITS.
One of the most attractive exhibits
on the ground is that made by the
Cement Company, under the direction
of Mr.. Chas. Guy. Mr.. Guy is an
artist as well as mechanic, and his
reproduction of 1.-The Lion of Luz
cernen is one Of the handsomest pieces
ever shown in lola. The exhibit is
surrounded by interested spectators
all the time.
THE FRUIT DISPLAY.
There are 2l3 entries in this depart
ment and MIR. Pancoast says the show
of apples is one of the best we ever
had. Peaches are rather poor and
pears just about average.
THE AGRICULTURAL SHOW.
There are 46 entries in this depart
ment.-one of the best displays ever
made here. The show of corn was es-
pecially fine, there being large num-
Der Of fine displays. There is also a
fine show of potatoes.
THE POULTRY.
There were only Eve entries of poul-
try, 20 coops altogether. Among
these perhaps the most attractive were
the Brown Leghorn exhibits. There
were two pens of Belgian Hares in
this department, shown by Mr.. Wood
of LaHarpe, which attracted much at
tention as they were the first that many
had ever seen.
SPECIAL DISPLAYS.
Among the special displays, that by
the Kansas City Plumbing and Sup
ply Company was large and attract
! i've while much attention was directed
to the Business College exhibit. The
corn brought to compete for Mr., f. ).
Benefits special premiums also made
Il splendid display.
THE REGISTER REUNION.
one OF the very pleasant events OF
the day was the Second Annual Re
union Of REGISTER Reporters. About
thirty people sat down to the well
loaded tables and enjoyed most
delightful social visit as well as a
first class dinner. This annual
reunion of the men and women who dc
more than anybody else to make the
REGISTER a welcome visitor in every
home in the county, is one Of the
fixtures of Fair week and the REG
lister earnestly hopes that next yeal
every member of the staff will be

fact. Then why not accept the way of escape
from 1.-The sin against health by calling upon DR..

Progressive System of Treatment before it is too
late; and by the way, the woman who considers it
expense that she hestates to meet should reflect
that it is cheaper to be cured than buried and GER

Sunday School Lesson for January 14
The Child Jesus Visits Jerusalem.
LUKE l141.52
BY REV. J. e. GILBERT, D. D., IL. D.,
Secretary Of American Society Of Religious Education.

CONTEXT.-Lastl lesson left Jesus, u
babe, in the manger at Bethlehem.
Matthew and Luke alone furnish in
formation concerning Him for the time
Immediately following. When eight
days old He was circumcised, (Luke
ii:2D fulfilling the law. Uev. ii:2t.)
After the days Of publication Lev
xii:2) He was presented in the temple
at Jerusalem. Carried again to Bethle-
hem He was worshipped by the wise
men. Matt. ii:1-12.) Subsequently to
escape the cruel Herod, the holy family
sought an asylum in Egypt, and after
the death Of the blood thirsty monster,
they returned and took up their resi-
dence in Nazareth. luke i:26.) In
that despised village (John i:46) Jesus
must have been under the course Of
training common to the boys of the
time. At last nine full years elapsed
between the entrance into Nazareth
and the events of our lesson.
ATTENDED oversees al and 42)--At
last Jesus came from obscurity into
brief public notice. 1t occurred when
He was twelve years DID, at which age
Jewish boy was supposed to have
gained sufficient knowledge to choose
and act for himself. when he assumed
obligations as a Son of the law. Up
to that age Jesus had been in the FAM
lily of Joseph. receiving instruction with
its other members according to the
time-honored custom in Israel. But,
having passed His twelfth birthday, He
was allowed for the first time to go up
to Jerusalem to the passover. Indeed,
this was His duty, for the law required

of great interest because of its COM
memorative U;x. XXii:1D and typical
character U Cor, verse ~ The journey
from Nazareth to Jerusalem, a dis
tance of eighty miles southward. lay
along valleys and over hills of historic
renown. destined to be the scenes Of
many wonderful deeds in the Saviours
ministry.
TARR1ED (versc 43).--Jesus came to
the national capital unannounced, at
tracing no more attention than other
lads Of similar age. We are not in
formed concerning the part assigned to
Him, while Joseph and Mary performed
the rites pertaining to the occasion. He
must have participated to some extent,
else the purpose of His visit would not
have been gained. But He was cer-
tainly allowed some liberty, appropriate
to one OF His years. and must have
| moved about according to His pleasur,,
for He became separated from His
mother. When the days were accom-
plished G. Chr. XXXv:1O and the duties
! of the feast were met, Joseph set out
| for home, but Jesus tarried. Was He
lost among the throngs that filled the
streets, psalm cXxii:4) Had He cast
off parental authority, under the i'm
pule OF opening manhood? Was He
charmed by the novelty of city life.
anxious to know more of the larger
world into which He had come? The
answers to these questions will fix His
place in history.

Many have wondered that Mary left
Jerusalem without her son. 1t must be
remembered that people went to the

Passover in caravans, partly for COM
fort and partly for protection against
robbers that infested the way. The
members of families would naturally
arrange themselves in groups. some
walking, some riding. The absence Of
an individual might not be noticed, un-
til at the close of the day, the caravan
halted and arrangements were made
for the night. Mary was surprised on
learning that Jesus was not with the
kinsfolk. Turning back she made dill
gent search for the missing boy. Many
fears must have been awakened. The
people had begun to disperse from the
city. and he may have been Joined to
some other outgoing company. to be
taken far away. Or, He may have been
ILL., or some accident may have befallen
Him.
FOUND (Verses 46 and 4O.-On the
third day OF the search Jesus was
found. Where? Amid the gay. who
surrounded the officials of the Roman
government? In the shops where the
rich fabrics of Damascus were dis
played? In the market place, where
men assemble for barter? In the
gates where justice was administered?
In the streets where boys are at play?
In the custody of officers whose duty
it was to protect the unfortunate?
Mary and Joseph may have visited all
these places, but in vain. They found
him where they least eXpected-in the
temple, in one of those spacious cham
bers set apart to purposes of instruc-
tion He was sitting with the doc
tors (Acts V. 3D. the wise men of the
nation, many of them venerable and
gray-headed. In the spirit of humil-
ity he was hearing and asking uues-
tions. His enthusiasm and wisdom
awakened the wonder of those learned
fathers.
CH1DED (Versc AS).-The sight of
the beautiful son engaged in such
worthy vocation carried great joy to
the heart Of the mother and of the
foster-f father. But mingled with that
feeling of gladness was one of aston
ishment. In the little village OF Naz-
areth, during the years of His tute-
lage, Jesus had no opportunity to as
sociate with men of such ability. and,
while He had grown in favor with the
people Uuke ii, 40. exhibiting many
noble characteristics. this was the first
instance i'm which lie had voluntarily
sought those who wero best informed
in the Jewish law. Their ama2emcnt
was tempered somewhat by u feeling
| of mild resentment that He should
have done this without the knowledg,
of His superiors and protectors. There
seemed to them little breach of the
| law of fllal honor UcX. yx. 12). And
I in a very gentle way. more effective
because gentle. they chided Him. The
mother said, "Why dost Thou troat us
thus? Thy father and I have sought
Thee sorrowing."
