Today's Bible Hero Story Retells
Story of Moses. First Law Giver
and First Liberator.


Moses. like George Washington,
was the first in many things. He
was the st law giver and the
first liberator of an enslaved peo-
pie. Had Moses so desired he
could have been raised almost to
the throne of Egypt. but he was
loyal to his own people, the Israel
ties. who, suffering under cruel
taskmasters, helped to build the
pyramids and were compelled to
make bricks without straw.
Moses had grown to manhood
ere he discovered that he was one
of the prosecuted race, and from
that moment on his ambition was
to liberate them from Egyptian
bondage. CARRIED in his robes of
splendor he often mingled with
his own people and when he saw
the tears that were shed by help
less women and children, listened
to the prayers and heard the
groans, his heart bled and he de-
termined not only to free them,
but go with them and be their
leader.
On one of these trips a task
master cruelty beat an Israelite.
The victim was helpless. but Mos
es, gathering together all the
strength of his manhood inflicted
such a blow on the tyrant that he
dropped dead.
Moses did not intend to commit
murder 1t was the first blow
struck for liberty. It was the be-
ginning of a revolution like the
first shot at Concord and Licking

youngsters are taken to one home
for the first course of the supper,
a light soup possibly; then loaded
into the car again they move on
to the home of the next hostess,
where something else Is served,
and so on through the list. The
number of courses to be served is
optional, and the entertainment
has more than one good and at
tractive feature; the expense is
not laid heavily on any one host

arated by an auto ride there is no
danger of over stuffing.

THE CRECHE MAKES AN
 APPEAL FOR DONATIONS

A column is opened in the social de- partment of The Age-Herald today for subscriptions to the Creche fund. It is generally known that for number or years through this department such a fund has been collected to be closed at about Thanksgiving and presented to the authorities at the Mercy Home. The money Is used to provide furnish- ings bed linen and blankets for the dormitories and to provide all cloth-
 ing. shoes and books for the children In the home. Every year the number
 of children in the home has increased
 as the population-and the poor-of Birmingham increased. Every year, too the generosity of the public has grown and the fund has been larger every succeeding fall. When 1t was learned that the collection would begin today a number of former subscribers and others who have not before inter- ested themselves in the charity of
