Foreign Mission Lesson.

The appeal of the Gentle woman, who
was a descendant of the Phoenicians of
Syria, as distinguished from those of
Africa or Carthagian, for her deranged
daughter touched the Masters heart.
The woman, heather though she was, had
called Jesus by nessianic title, needed
to have her faith tested. The silence of
the Christ gave her Encouragement, SO
she continued her intercession. Her
prayer, a prophesy in action Of the hour
when all nations of the earth would
recognize Him as their Lord, filled the
Master with joy. 1t was a different strain
from that He had recently been hearing
in Galilee, yet the disciples, because of
their provincialism, some have suggest
ed, objected to her persistent petitions,
prayed that Christ would send her away.
The Masters Interpretation Of their re-
quest, however, implies the possibility
that they requested that she be sent away
satisfied because He presents before
them the fact that His mission was to
the lost sheep of Israel. The effect of
contact with heathenism had commenced
to break the bands Of Judaism. The new
wine could not be kept in old bottles.
Their request also encouraged the woman.
who demonstrated that she possessed the
true faith. The Master wanted to show
the disciples that they must be certain
of the character of ones faith in their
future work among the Gentiles. Jesus
could not refuse her request because her
faith met His demands. The Masters
seemingly harsh reply to her petitions did
not lower himself to the level of Jewish
prejudice and call her a Gentle dog, but
it tried the character Of her faith The
quick, ingenious. humble answer, YEA,
Lord, the small house dogs eat the
crumbs that fall from the table," won her
case She claimed not the rights of a
Jew, but the part that belonged to her as
a Gentle. Her faith thrilled Christ. He
commended her faith and healed the child
Immediately.
This cure prevented the Master enjoy
ing a season of seclusion, but 1T served
to teach the disciples a lesson that we
need to learn, that missionary endeavor

tian sociability. Without that the world
shrinks from and avoids association with
so-called Christians. They are not in

social life. 1t was the love, sympathy
and helpfulness of the Christ that made
Him welcome. And so it will ever be
with His followers. The sociability that
is in imitation of His loving concern for
men affords the great opportunity for
Christian usefulness.

1t seems superfluous to preach Chris
tan sociability, for to be a Christian at
all includes loving service and generous
consideration for the we'll being of all
men.
BE kindly affectioned one to another
with brotherly love; in honor preferring
one another
We can preach, however, in regard to
Christian soc;ability, the injunction of
last weeks topic. You can do better"
We can all give heartier and more cor
dial handshakes, sweeter and tenderer
smiles gentler and more generous words
than We have been giving. We can do
more and greater deeds of generosity
and mercy than We have been doing. If
we could only remember that Christ. for
our sakes. was once hungry, thirsty, a
stranger, naked. sick and in prison, and
that If we minister to those around us
who are in like straits it will be account
ed as though it was done unto Him, then
we would the better understand and full
fill the obligations arising from all our
varied relations to society.
The sociability that is required of the
Christian must be. like all other noble
services. consecrated service. 1t involves
sacrifice. self-denial pain; 1t requires en-
durance. 1t may be wrought in OBJ
security, and over its victories no songs of
triumph may be raised, but if the worker
love 1t, and his toiling is hallowed by sin
cerity, by generous impulse, by unselfish
devotion to the welfare of Others the
work will be its own reward

There was always a controversy
between the rangers and the citizens
Of Webb county over this affair.
The authorities OF Webb county and
those who knew the two Gonzales

have killed at the outset had they

the Mexicans were well known re-
putable citizens in that community
and had never committed any Grim

parties were released-the MeXicans
