@HE people Of Nazareth would Of
course feel certain sense Of
~ pride In their fellow-citizen
whose fame was spreading
throughout all Galilee and Judea.
- They could scarcely believe what
they had heard about Jesus. He new
er did such miracles In all the years
that we knew Him, said they. They
did not, of course, understand that He
had received His power as a special
benediction when He was thirty years
Of age, as result Of His conservation
Of His life to the Divine service, gym
bolized by His immersion In Jordan.
At length He came to Nazareth. II
was on Sabbath day. For long years
He had done the congregational read

to comment there o" "" st'oVoO"e a.
were whisperings
Of disapproval, and finally an outburst
Of wrath against Him. All! they
thought, this young man has lost His
head.
They drove Him out of the syna-
gogue with angry demonstrations.
They led the way toward the brow Of
a hill, that they might push Him over.
For a little way Jesus went, but then
He turned and passed through their
midst, overawing them by the dignity
Of His presence.
The Truth That Angered.
At first we read, "Ail bare Him wit
ness, and wondered at the gracious
words that proceeded out Of His
mouth" What made the changer IT
was the plain declaration that they did
not believe In Him fully, therefore It
would not be Gods will that He should
perform any miracles for them. He
backed up His statement with illustra-
tons from the past which angered
them still more.
Instead of the people Of Nazareth
getting angry and resenting these
things, they should have said, Tell us,
then, of our faults and help US to over
come them. If God has blessings,
surely we, as Israelites, may have our
share If we will but come into the
right attitude of heart.
The 4 eason From, Isaiah
The lesson for that Sabbath was
from Isaiah Xxi, 1-3. 1t was an excel
lent text, and the sermon on 1t was
from the ablest of teachers. How His
hearers should have rejoiced to know
that they were living in the day Of the
fulfilment of these words! Jesus. had
been anointed by the Father with the
Holy Spirit, that He might declare
good tdings to the poor. Surely many
Of them were poor and needy!

Jesus to heal the broken-hearted. How

DEMAND FOR HIS
REMOVAL IS NOT
WORRYING RALPH
Director Says Labor Men
Have No Cause to Con-
denim Him.

Joseph Z. Ralph, director of the Bu-
reau Of Engraving and Printing, is
not worrying over the action Of the Gen.
tral Labor Union in passing resolutions
condemning him. Neither Is he alarm
ed over the alleged threat of the union
to ask Congress to remove him from his
position.
At a meeting of the union held last
night in the Typographical Temple, reg
olutions condemning Mr.. Ralph were
passed. P. ]. Ryan said that Director
Ralph had broken faith with the Plate
Printers Union in their fight to stop
the Introduction of power presses. EN-
met L. Adams declared that Mr.. Ralph
had been unfair to the Machinists
Union.
Mr.. Ralph said today that the matter
was beneath his notice; that he had
done his duty as he thought best and
had no apologies to make: that he had
always endeavored to be square and
honest. and that the opposition to him
was worked up, not as whole by
union men, but by two or three men.
IT have done my duty, and | do not
fear removal" said Mr.. Ralph.
The opposition, according tol abor men,
is confined to unions which allege Mr..
Ralph has been antagonistic.
In Congress, Mr.. Ralph Is said 70
have powerful friends who will defend
him in case any action Is brought.
