be more or less crowded by the fes-
tivities so closely following this date.
The international committee provided
an alternative lesson (as given
above), but it will hardly be wise to
omit altogether lesson so impor-
tant. The passage assigned for study
is Exodus 14:13-27. Read the whole
story up to and including Exodus
1921. A brief analysis of this section
of Scripture follows:
The pillar of fire. Eek. i3:i7-22
The pursuit Eek. l4:1-l2.
Passage of the Red sea. Ex. Hl3-2L
Moses song. Ex, B:l-2l.
The Pillar of Fire.-A journey of
$50 miles would bring the Hebrews
to Hebron. if they went by the most
direct route, but in that case they
would have no opportunity for or
ganizing a nation, and would almost
Immediately be forced to make way
for themselves by fighting. The jour
ney actually made was much longer
and rougher, but more useful to the
development of the people than the
other would have been. The visible
sign of Gods guiding presence was
probably more like torch than like
the great mass so often seen in pic
lures. Torches, appearing smoky by
day and fiery by night, have often
been used as standards.
The Pursuit.-Apparently Moses
started first for the Isthmus of Suez, |
and then turned back to the shallow |
est part of the Red sea 1t is gen.
orally believed that the place where
the crossing was made is now land, |
being little south of the Bitter !
lakes. This movement brought the |
Hebrews within the reach of Pharaoh,
and it looked to the people, and per-
haps to Moses. as though grievous
mistake had been made. But If they
had gone directly on they could not
have escaped the Egyptians, who
would certainly have overtaken them
within two or three days.
Passage of the Sea.--Conditions
have so changed about the Red sea
that it is impossible to say Just how
the lsraelites were placed. 1t is GER
tain. however, that the situation
seemed so serious, as the Egyptians
were close behind and the sea in
front. The complaint of the Israel
ties was not unnatural, and obedience
to the command of 1915 required
great faith. The presence of God be-
tween the Egyptians and the Israel.
ties prevented the night attack. which
would have been easy and overwhelm-
ng. The clearing of a path through
Ihe sea was not miracle in the
strict sense of that word, because il
was brought about by known natural
'auses. The shape of the sea, the tide,

New York. April 15.--Less than ten
points variation in cotton prices to-
day and at no time was speculation
active. The trade was nominally in
control from the start and manifested
bullish inclinations. Constant fear of
summer manipulation kept shorts on
the defensive The opening was steady
though off 2 to 8 points later do to
weak cables. That the trade here took
little stock in the Liverpool heaviness
was shown by a sharp rise of five to
eight points soon after the opening,
brought about by Southern and foreign
demand for July and August and turn
for cover by pit shorts. Light stocks
in New York and rather gloomy re-
ports from the Eastern belt were in part
responsible for the better feeling. Re-
ceipts at the ports did not reach off
cial estimates. Some of the more PROM
inent bears sold for a turn when May
reached S04 and July 795. This selling
proved successful as prices returned
to about the final basis Of Saturdays

showed sweeping curtailment of pro-
