Golden Text: "Among them that

greater than John, yet he that is but
little in the kingdom OF God is
greater than he." Luke VII:2S.
/. Verse 2-What had John done
to be in prison?
9. What do you think had pro-
duced doubt in the mind Of John
concerning the Messiahship Of
Christ?
g. What, If anything, was there in
Christs manner Of life that would
be liable to make John doubt?
A. What are the causes which Of
ten produce doubt in the minds Of
good men on matters of which at
other times they have been certain,
as in the cases Of Elijah and John?
5. Verses 4-6-At what point did
John need most to be strengthened?
6. What did Jesus consider to be
the supreme proof of his mission?
7. What to-day are the proofs for
the divinity Of Christ's mission and
gospel?
s. Verses 7S--What special
scenes, or demonstrations, had at
tended Johns preaching In the will

8. In what respect was John un-

10. What sort Of clothing did
John wear?
II. What significance is there in
the fact that Jesus and John were
not alike in their manner Of dress ?
IL. Verses O-1O-In what respect
was John more than prophet?

pitch it. Who would have been at
fa"lt' the pupils or the parents? ?
Why you, Of course. You should
teach children to sing as we'll as to
read and write.
And why should we not use this
sublime language more in our Sun
day schools? OF all the instruments
of music, the voice is supreme. Yet
we do not believe it wrong to use
other instruments in divine wor-
ship unless there is prejudice against
such; then l think 1t best not to
use them.
we cannot say just how lonn the
organ has been in use, but Jubal was
the father Of all such as handled the
harp or the organ. In David's time
we know instruments using the vi
brating column of air in a tube
were in use, and later we find the
church improving upon the organ
and enlarging 1t. The organ has
always been, and will remain, the
instrument Of the church. | trust
that more and more Of the young
people will take up the study of this
instrument, and then when churches
need players they will be ready. We
learn from the Bible that the angels
use the best kind Of music. AT Sum
day school, or during divine. wor-
ship Of any kind, believe in gospel
singing and gospel songs, sung by
all who can sing, and not by a select
few
HOW may we awaken an interest

riches; 1t Is ore where there Is love

Music affords social entertainment.

WHY WE SHOULD
ENCOURAGE MUSIC.

Essay read by Miss Ola Grubbs
at the Inter-Society Contest Of the
Walhalla High School, May 16. Miss
Grubbs was awarded the essayists'
medal, and was highly commended
by the judges.)
Music as part Of the divine wor-
ship does not hold the place it
should; 1T Is not looked upon as be-
ing a part Of the worship. There are
but two ways in which we may ap-
proach the Master: by prayer and
by praise. We are commanded to
pray, and we are commanded to Of
fer praise. In no other way do
believe we can offer praise more ac-
ceptably to our Master than by using
our voices In songs Of praise. So
many people look upon the singing
as preliminary eXercise-some-
thing thrown In. J. am sorry this is
the case; it should not be, because
there Is power in song when rightly
used and sung with. the soul in It.;
and often times a message sent on
the wings Of song finds a resting
place in the heart, when a message
from the whole world would fail.
Music had it's origin from God.
We learn from the Bible that when
the foundations OF the earth we're
laid "the morning stars sang to-
gether, and all the sons of God
shouted for JOY" We know that it
had divine favor when the birth Of
our Saviour was announced to the
shepherds Of Judea. 1t was in that
grand chorus, "Peace on earth and
good will toward man." at the close
Of Christ's ministry on earth, just
before going out to Gethsemane, he
sang song with his disciples before
he prayed.
One Of the greatest attractions Of
heaven Is the music Of the angelic
hosts Shakespeare gave to music
just tribute when he said, "Music
is the language spoken by the an
gels"
Then why should we not speak
this language In our literary schools?
Citizens, where have you been keep
ing yourselves? Why should not
Walhalla High School have an audi
torinm In which we could have
opening exercises together each
morning? and a piano there, in place
OF each class, going to its room and
trying to sing songs? 1t Is likely
that there Is not a pupil in the
room able to pitch some OF the songs
without an instrument OF some kind.
Now, just imagine how you would
have felt II, while on his visit here.
