arrows had double meaning. 1t was
taken literally by the boy, but fgura-
lively by David. AS the lad went after
the arrows Jonathan shot yet another

The horror of experiencing an earth

The Lesson Explained. Verses 1924.
"A fine defender.
1t was customary for the members Of
the several Hebrew clans to hold fam
lily gatherings in connection with the
feast Of the new moon. David used
this as pretext to stay away and not
report himself to the king, as he was
accustomed to do, being his armor
bearer. If perchance the king should
inquire after him, Jonathan should
give the alleged reason, and the way
the excuse was received would indicate
what his feelings were toward David.
Saul did ask for David and naturally
turned to Jonathan, whose friendship
for him was well known and who was
therefore likely to be informed of the
affairs of 1.-THE son of Jesse" (verse ~.
The king became indignant when he
heard that David had gone away. At
once he proceeded to insult his own
son and cha rged him with being in
league with David, to Jonathan's own
hurt and confusion. Saul then COM
manded that David be sent for, that he
might kill him. "Wherefore shall he
be slain?" Jonathan was equal to the
occasion and appealed to the better
judgment Of his father, reminding him
OF David's excellent services. He had
acted in this conciliatory fashion once
before and at that time was success
full in turning Saul away from his
reckless course Il Sam. xix, g.. But
there was no hope Of doing anything
now. Instead of listening to Jonathan.
Saul was so incensed that he least a
javelin at him." He threatened to take
the life Of his own son because he
protested friendship for David. So
Jonathan knew that peace was out of
the question. because his father was
determined to destroy David on the
first opportunity. He then "rose from
the table in fierce anger on account
of the inexcusably insulting treatment
which he received from his father, who
not only was unjust to David, but also
publicly 'had done him shame. in i'm

Fleet Maneuvers In May Will Find

During that period large fleet Of

Of maneuvers in and about New York
for the purpose Of finding its weak
points.
Three admirals, recently raised to
this, the highest rank in our navy, will
be In charge Of the maneuvers If the
original plans are followed. Admiral
Fletcher will be in full charge, while
Adm1rals Howard and Cowles will be
In command Of divisions.
Many are Of the opinion that New
York could not long Withstand the fire
Of hostile fleet.

raise even 200, 900 men in six months.
That is, trained and equipped men.
The question then rests upon our navy.
Assuming it is equal in size to the
ships escorting these transports, what
course could it pursue?
There are two ways open-to sail en-
masse and trust to luck to fall in with
the escorting squadron or to spread out
along our 1900 mile coast line, have
our two solitary scout cruisers en-
deavor to locate the hostile feet, and
then converge.
I'm either case our ships would get
the worst Of it, for they have not, &C.
cording to reliable reports, enough
powder to fight with for any length Of
time. Therefore we will assume that
the opposing feet has either defeated
our fleet or broken through its lines
and begun to land troops on Long Is
land, near Long Beach.
Effort to Hold Our Forts.
"As soon as we learned of their ap-
proach all the troops we could get to-
gether would be rushed to New York
as base. The effort would be made
to hold our forts-Fort Hamilton,
Sandy Hook, Fort Wadsworth, Fort
Totten, etc.
"These forts are built to repulse a
foe upon water, not land. It is neces-
sary, therefore, that their rear be pro-
tected by troops. Our men would then
begin to dig trenches and lay mine
fields in the rear Of the forts and on
the approaches to them.
1T is one thing to charge an enemy
in the face of rifle fire and another to
run over the ground that you expect to
rise up under your feet any instant.
The mines and actual trench fighting
could be counted upon to hold the en-
envy back for short time, say week.
Then because Of their superior forces
they would undoubtedly be able to take
all our forts.
Having taken the forts, the advance
could be made into the harbor by their
ships as soon as the submarine mines
were out of the way. Then they would
have at their: mercy the richest city. in
the world. Their. first troops would
have more or less difficulty in actually
reaching the city. ~
I'm the first place, every great bridge
