June 30. Review OF the quarter. G. 7. I Cor. 6:l.
As the lesson today closes the studies of the
Life of Christ gathered from the four gospel
narratives, it would be we'll in our review to
take glance at the great events in His life.
Perhaps the four great epochs in the life OF Jesus
are most distinctly marked in the gospel by st.
Luke The blackboard sketch may indicate the
span OF Christ's earthly life from Bethlehem $
Inn to Bcthany's Glory, and the four great arches
reaching from the Annunciation to the Ascension
may indicate the Four epochs IN His lifc
First draw a globe to indicate the sphere Of our
Lords ministry; then draw the span of bridge
marking His coarse in the world. Then draw
four arches for the bridge, and as each epoch
is noted in the ministry Of Jesus write the word
in the arch: First, PREPARATION; second,
POPULARITY; third. PERSECUTION; fourth,
PASSION. In using st. Lukes account note that
chapter l to chapter 4: Is records the special
earthly PREPARATION for His lite work Then
follows the year Of POPULARITY, when the r,u.
titudes heard Jesus glodly, and the foundations
of the church were laid Reaching the ifty.first

HEALTH RULES FOR SUMMER.
Some "Don'ts" Which May Help to
Reduce the Temperature.
From Success.

FROM success.
In any valuable advice about the
treatment of ones self in summer the
"donts" must largely prevail. During
the hot months the gospel of abstin-
ence should be most strenuously ami
continuously taught, and accepted, or
illness is the result.
First, don't entirely shut out the
sunlight because it makes the room
somewhat warmer or fades the Garnet.
Life Is more than little extra dis
comfort or the brightness of carpets;
and when you shut out the sun you
shut out the great vitalizer and germ
destroyer. You need not, of course,
have the sun streaming in all day. or
even considerable part of the day,
but let it come in freely for an hour or
two in the morning.
Use as little gas as possible for light
