LOOKING DEATH IN THE EYE.
The International Sunday School Les
son for July IL Is Greatness
Through Service" Mark 10:32.45.
(By William T. Ellis.)

! Barrie's great story, THE Little
Minister reaches it's climax when
the pastor of the Aud LIGHT church,
assailed by an Infatuated congregation
battled with a flood which apparently
means inevitable death. In this hour
he played the man so splendidly with
no thought of fear or self, but only
of his work, of his loyalties and of his
,'love. that the tide of sentiment was
completely turned The highest hero
ism shows itself in the presence OF
clearly perceived and unacceptable
death. The galleries of memory hold
as treasures the pictures of the brave
men aboard the Titanic who died like
gentlemen, rather than seek life like
cravens. And now we come upon a
picture of the greatest hero of all,
looking without blinking into the eyes
OF near death.
The final battle between Jesus and
the priestly and Pharisaic party had
been joined at the grave of Lazarus.
The victory, humanity speaking, clear
ly lay with his enemies. There could
be only one result. He was doomed to
die. There was no escape for him.
He knew that he must suffer and die
in ignominty. The cross was fixed on
the retina of the soul of Jesus. Hear
him describe what lay before him:
Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and
the son of man shall be delivered unto
the chief priests and the scribes; and
they shall condemn him, to death, and
shall deliver him unto the Gentiles;
and they shall mock him, and shall
spit upon him, and shall scourge him,
and shall kill him; and after three
days he shall rise again.
Striking False Note.
That Is the background of this les
son. 1t lends meaning to the Incidents
which the Sunday schools are now
studying. The latter can be under
stood only in the light Of their setting.
The words are those of man about
to die. The parting counsel is the ex-
allied admonition of a friend and
u the group about him. The scene
was as sacred as death chamber.
The atmosphere was surcharged with
the spirit of the approaching tragedy.
In this hour, if ever, any little souls
might be expected to rise above petty
interests. To intrude trivial or ignoble
themes into this occasion, would be
like talking millinery over a mothers
bier.
Nevertheless, the opportunity was
seized by the nearest disciples Of Jesus
to gain honors for themselves. Here
a gain, and in the other most sacred
hours of the masters life, ambition
thrust it's ugly head forward. The
disciples who should have been the
most tender and sympathetic sharers
of his passion. were using this hour
to assure their own future positions.
Whatever the nature of the kingdom
that the Lord meant to found, they
wanted the chief seats.
