fear for themselves, for it must have
been generally known that they car

SIN All Thy Ways Acknowledge Him"
The beginning of the journey with
fasting and prayer gives US an in
sight into Ezra's power and efficiency.
God was with him"-he walked with
God. he sought TO know and 10 do
the Divine will. Surely IL Is IN vain
that any would attempt TO serve the
Lord and yet neglected 20 humble
themselves before Him and TO make
request for His blessing and guild
ance We submit that fasting and
prayer and earnest dosire TO know and
to do the Lords will are far more
eiiicacious for good than are large
donations Of money Perhaps there
has been too great a tendency on the
part Of many to leave out the matter
of religious work at home and abroad
save along financial lines. forgetful
in part az least. that they labor IN
vain unless the Lord grant His
blessing
The fact that notwithstanding our
wonderful financial efforts during the
past century there arc today twice as
many sheathen as there were a cen-
tury ago, should take rs to the Lord
in prayer to assure ourselves regard
ing the meaning Of the prayer He
taught us-"Thy Kingdom come, Thy
will be done on earth as Il is done
! In heaven" Seeing the futility of oul
efforts TO bring about heavenly con.
J ditions on earth ought TO lead all of
Gods earnest children to search Hi'
Word and to see whether or not il
teaches that the second coming OF
Messiah is TO unite to Himself Hi:

actly four months. AS great dis
tance can be covered in less than
four days with our modern cOnven-
iences, which surely seem to be
precursors Of the glorious Messianic
Epoch, the wonderful prosperity OF
which has so long been foretold
Ezra has been censured as narrow
and cruel because of the reforms at
Jerusalem Of which he became the
leader and advisor. The Jews who
first returned from Babylon We're
full of zeal for the Divine Law, and
refused to inter-marry or to have
social dealings with their heather
neighbors; but as their prosperity
Jagged their zeal slackened Care
lessness and irreligion came IN.
Hence Ezra soon found that many
Jews were inter-marrylng with their
neighbors. aud that a condition Of
thugs prevailed which il continued
would mean the corruption Of the
nation TO which God had given the
promise that ultimately. He would
use them as a nation for the sending
/ out Of the light ana truth which He
I has promised shall yet bless all the
| families OF the earth.
A general assembly or convocation
of Israelites was called for and held
| to consider this matter of mixed mar
| riages and the requirements Of the
| Law, and any failing to be represented
were notified that they would be in
danger of being counted out of the
! congregation, as aliens. Il was a time
| Of weeping and sorrow and distress
amongst the people as they realized
that conformity to the Divine Law
would mean the breaking of family
ties. The Divine Law had been broken
and now the penalty was TO be felt.
| The way of the transgressOrs was
hard
This requirement of the Law can
only be understood by those who rea-
lie that Israel was under a special
Covenant with God by the compact at
Mt Sinai and that that nation was
subject to every feature of that Law.
No such law is or has ever been put
upon other notions-nOr upon Chris
tians, who are not under the Law but
under Grace. We must not however
object to the Jews being faithful to
his Covenant. for that Law Covenant
is as binding upon him today as il
ever was and it will remain binding
until it shall be superseded by the
New Law Covenant, referred to in
jeremiah XXI. p. The great Messiah
Head and Body will be the Mediator
of that New Covenant, and its sealing
will be effected by the blood OF the
better sacrifices" of this Gospel Age
To the Christian the next thing corre-
spending to this Law is the Apostolic
injunction that the consecrated fol-
lowers should not inter-marry witf
the worldly but "only in the Lord.
I'll Corinthians vii 39). There is sure
ly Divine wisdom in this injunction
yet il is not a law, and Christians whC
/ have married unconsecrated persons
|. are not to leave them, but to fulh
their marriage covenants.--I Corin

Howing.

A dog sat out in the midnight
chill and howled at the beaming
moon; his knowledge of music
was strictly nil and his voice out
of tune. And he howled and
howled as the hours went by,
while lodging the bricks we
threw, till the moon was low in
the western sky and his voice
was split in two. There wasn't
a thing at which to howl or to
show pup should weep, and the
course of the dog was wrong and
foul, for people were wild to
sleep. There are plenty of men
like that blamed fool hound, who
yell when re'snothing wrong,
disturbing the country with
senseless sound-the pessimist's
doleful song-Unknown Origin.

PROGRESS Of Game Protection.

The United States Department OF
Agriculture has favored the Meschacebe
with its circular No. 80 showing the
steady progress in the movement for the
increase Of game and the establishment
Of game preserves.
In Louisiana two large game presor-
yes were set aside, one in Caldwell Par
ish and one in Plaquemines and Jeffer-
son Parishes. The warden service was
completely reorganized and the jurisdic-
ton of the Board of Game Commission
ers extended to include oysters, shellfish
and terrapin. Mention is made also that,
in this state, it is unlawful to iberate
imported game birds without authority y
from the Board of Game Commissioners,
and the use of the silencer in hunting
deer is prohibited. Pheasants were dis
tributed for liberation on the State game
preserve in Caldwell parish.
There are seventy six game wardens
doing service in the State.
The States having no protection for
game are Maryland, North Dakota and
South Carolina, all other States having
an organized system of wardens.
