Thus ended the life Of him to whom
Jehovah spoke. not in visions and par
ahles as to the prophets, but face to
face rs one man to another. His
Work was done and Joshua commits
stoned TO lead Israel in the conquest
Of Canaan.
8. Joshua's first lesson on assum-
ing the command of the Hebrew host
was the Importance of implicit obedi-
ence, botn as to personal conduct and
in governing the people, OF the com
mands OF Jehovah. Conditioned on
this obedience. he was assured that
not one Of the powerful forces he had
to fight would be able to stand up
against him. The Lords help Is al
ways with us If we are striving to
walk in obedience to him, and the
Anakim of sin cannot overcome us
while We cling close to his com
mands Would to God that our rulers
and the administrators of public af-
fair would pattern more after Joshua
instead Of looking to money and polit-
ical pull as to the mainsprings Of CON
duct.
8. Here was an impressive lesson
to Israel Of the guiding and protecting
power of Jehovah. when the flood
swollen waters of Jordan were parted
In the presence OF the ark, the visible
symbol of God's presence. to allow
the whole company of Israel and all
n n IN In, f.t
to the land of promise. Let us not
doubt Gods ability TO find us n way
through the blllows Of adversely If we
are only advancing in obedience to
His command.
10. Here Is another example OF
apparently insurmountable difficulties
overcome by the power OF God in
answer TO the needs OF an obedient
people. 1t required both patience
and perseverance. inspired by an un-
questioning faith, to accomplish the
fall OF Jericho. SO may we, II We
fully put our trust In the Lord. and
never weary In well-doing, find the
obstacles to tho onward march OF
right and justice melting away In the
twlnkling Of an eye; but we must have
faith. we must have obedience. and we
must have patience.
II. II In sad that our quarters
yicw OF sacred history should close
with the disobcdienco OF Achan and
its awful penalty. As the sin of o.
man brought disaster and humiliation
upon Gods chosen people and Ills
favor withdrawn until the sin was
atoned. SO let us beware lest we play
the part OF Achan. God 10 not dccelv-
ed by our hidden motives and secret
| sins. no matter how successful we
may be In hiding them from our fel-
low men, church membership. moral
living. good works and liberal dona-
tions to worthy objects. unless the
spirit OF loving obedience Is behind
II all, will not avail you the last
great day to prevent the awful SEN
tence: Depart from Me; l never
knew you" And the penalty of your
sin. no matter how secret, Is sure
and unavoidable. Only In the light
that shines down to us from the first
Christmas day Is there hope. Take
out your secret sins. and lay them at
the foot OF the cross and let the blood

with the truth that God helps those
who obey His will. but none are 30

Just word or two in a personal
way. The writer is not disposed to
murmur at the biunders of typesettegs
and proof readers for he knows too
well the amenities of their business.
However, when a mistake involves
contradiction Of meaning, correction
Is justly due him. Last Sundays les
son says "the Word was not Diety"-
II should have read: THE Word was
not only Deity"
Another thing. The writer desires
TO publicly thank the Bible class OF
the First Baptist church for very
substantial Christmas gift. His ap-
probation Of the kindness Is not to
be expressed IN words. but best OF all
is the gratifying knowledge that his
feeble efforts I'm behalf of the Master
have been recognized by fellow human
beings, and this expression of their
appreciation will ever be- gratefully
remembered. May the Lord grant
that this writer, Ike Balaam, may
utter only the words God shall put In
his mouth, and that some little word
OF his may find response in n soul
glorlfying God for It's salvation from
SIN With this prayer, he wishes YOU

The Progressive leaders themselves
secretly admit that their only hope il
to defeat Mr.. Peters for they are los
ing men from their ranks every day
In Hartland there is but one member
of the town Progressive committee
left. In Palmyra the member of the
county committee has resigned. In
Ripley, w. H. Farrar. the leading
Progressive there, told State COM
mitteeman of the Progressive party
that he could not stand for the party
at this time. In Cambridge the com
mittee is shattered. In Cornviile there
is but one member of the town COM
mittee left. In Athens what are left
are faint hearted. In North Arson a
delegate to the Progressive convention
at Waterville, who is now out for
Peters, stated, last week, that there
was only one man there who was even
lifting hand and he didn't dare to
wear a Lawrence button. In Canaan
four of the Progressive town commit
toe are working every day for Mr..
Peters, and the chairman told the
State committeeman that he must get
somebody else as he himself must
work for Peters. In Skowhegan the
delegates to the Waterville conven-
ton, the chairman of the county com
mittee. the secretary Of the town COM
mittee and other members of the town
committee are out for Peters and
there is only one man in the town that
is doing active work for Lawrence and
that is a member of the State commit
tee. Nearly $50 of the men in this
town who voted for Roosevelt are now
active for John A. Peters and have
said that they were going to vote 70
him.
If one will stop to think he will
realize that prior to the Democratic
administra ton in Maine in 1910, th'
organ for the Progressive party a
present, cried in practically every is
sue that Fernald would be elected by
10000 majority. A little memory is
worth while in this campaign. The

The motive of the leaders of the Pro

they now believe that Mr.. Lawrence
does not have a ghost of a show Of

The men who voted for Roosevelt are
honest in their efforts and want to
vote for the man that will defeat Mr..
Pattangall.
For the most part, everybody be-
lieves that Mr. Peters will defeat Mr..
Pattangall by a substantial majority,
but the leaders of the Progressive
party are deceiving some of the Not-

has q good chance. They tell this
