home at 1870 California street. from
$3.50 to 1850 o'clock. and Friday night
a. banquet will be held at the church

The founding of the class dates back
to 1891. at Takoma Park, Md, when
several boys from ten to twelve years
of age met with the present teacher,
Mrs. Kinnear. After five years at
Takoma Park the class was moved to
the junior department of Calvary Bap-

transferred to the adult department,
where the class is at the present

Cross"
Literally. Jesus Injunction was to no.
only satisfy the requirements of a dis.
tasteful service. but to go beyond the
requirements and render double por-
ton OF service. AS this must have
seemed imposeibly difficult to the Jews
80 the wider or more general applica-
tion seems to most people nowadays
hard.
The Roman soldiers still meet us on
rany roads; that is, the soldiers of his
majesty "Must"-the things that we
are forced to do that we do NOT like to
90. There is work; there are handi-
caps, the weights OF poor health, or
poor relatives, or poor education, or
poor equipment. There are the "musts''
or the public service. AS the nation
accepts the must" OF military pre-
paredness, these public "musts" will
seized by the must" Of work, one-mile
folks whine about social Injustice or
sullenly endure, or watch the clock
for quitting time.
The idea of Jesus is that it is pos
sible Tor one to take the sting and bur-
Of life by fulfilling them with a spirit
which refuses to be embittered by
them. One who persistently faces his
limitations in this resolute spirit finds
.nd. tnere are more opportunities than
limitations. and he Is on the path that
leaos TO two priceless things-j6y and
power. No teaching Of Jesus can be
more readily proved in everyday life.
The first mile Of work is drudgery:
glory comes with the second mile. No
Worker gets promoted for doing the
work he Is paid for; promotion is seq
ond,mile pay-the reward Of tho extra
work or extra esiiciency that was vol
unteered. Sometimes the second-mile
pay IS slow In appearing in the pay en-
velope. but while 1t is materialixing
there is also the reward of interest and
nastefy OF the work. which is slowly
enriching the soil Of character.

'SECOND-MILE r E L IGI o N"
(Matt., 5.3S-48.
By Robert D. Burbank.
President Of Washington District Epworth Leag,

President Of wAshington District Epworth League.
"Ye have heard that 1t was said. AN
eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth ;
but say unto you, Resist not him that
is evil, but whosoever smfteth thee on
thy right cheek, turn to him the other
also. And If any man would go to law
with thee. and take away thy coat, let
him have thy cloak also. And whoso-
ever shall compel thee to go one mile,
go with him twain"
These words. part of christ's SER
mon on the mount. disclose the real
heart of Christianity-the principle
that distinguishes 1t from all other re-
ligions. as well as from all PHILOSOPHERS
and ethics; for while they teach sub
mission to religious and legal author
ity, as well as to the requirements OF
necessity, Christ demands of his fol-
lowers not only that they submit to the
requirements of the law, but also that
they shall not resist him who seeks to
do them harm, and that they shall not
only satisfy the requirements OF JUS
tice. but that they shall render the
service of love, even at the cost OF sac
rifice.
We are prone to think that Christian
fly consists in being honest. paying
ones debts. telling the truth and re-
framing from crime. Every Christian
does these things. but they are not dis
/ tinctively Chrfstian-they are part OF
| Judaism, of Confucianism. and OF eth
! les without religion. Christianity
comes only in the surplus of love. OF
! patience, OF forbearance-fn the posi-
| tive efforts of aggressive and continued
| good will The power as well as the
| JOY Of our religion comes when 1t over
fiows beyond compulsion: This is the
| and Its applications lie in all fields OF
life.
No one compels you or mo to go .
mile with him. literally, and the mean
ing may be obscure unless we go be
meath the surface and realize that In
the time of Christ 1t was quite com
mon experience for person, especially
O. Jew. to be compelled to go mile
with man. It was the right OF the
Roman soldiers and officials to compel
any Jew to go with them as guide OF
convoy or to carry baggage himsedf o.
| on his mule or camel. The Jews coulc
not be used as Roman soldiers, because
they would not light on the seventh
day, % Rome compelled them to pay
an extra tax. and to give much eervtce

forced on their subjects by the Greeks
and the Persians, clear back to the
time Of Cyrus. and 1t was peculiarly
