PAUL AT CORINTH.

Lesson TEXT-Acts 1912
GOLDEN TEXT-Be not afraid, but
speak, and hold not thy peace.-Acts 1879.
I. Pau's Companions. wv. 1-6)
Paul's coming to this city after his
experiences in Athens is significant
when we read / Cor. 81, 2. He
found a home as usual at first among
his Jewish countrymen. Aquila and
Priscilla were not only fellow Chris
tians but fellow craftsmen ". 81. Paul
supported himself as Jesus did for
80 years, as carpenter. This gave
opportunity to reach the people natu-
rally as one of them. At the same
time he set them the example of do
ing good Il Cor. 10 3D. Cor 1912;
II Thess. 2-9). Paul did not think it
a lack of faith to do manual labor or
cause God had called him to preach.
In the midst of his labors ". 81 Silas
and Timothy came to him from
Philippi and Berea. The Philippians
had sent him aid and brought news Of
the abundant harvest of faith and

he meditated on the word, it had so
got hold on him that he could not
keep still. 1t overpowered him with
and that he must tell it out, but the
Jews were not willing to receive
his testimony. "They opposed them
selves and blasphemed," ". g.. The
good news these helpers brought en-
couraged him in his conflict ". g..
II. PauI's compuIsion. wv. 7-1D.
The opposition of the Jews did not
prove his testimony to, be untrue or
that it had been unwisely presented,
but rather it revealed the iniquity Of
the hearts of the men who were the
religious leaders. To their faces Paul |
could exclaim 81 am clean," ". g.. 1t
Is great thing for any man to be
able to say this, and it is the priv
lege of every believer (Acts 20 :26). |
Then we can say with Paul: II shrank

counsel of Cod" Or. W If we do not
1eclare unto men the way Of life then

of his day. From hence

Men possessed of talents, as well
as training, excel those less favored
by nature; but generally it is better
to be well trained and without talent
than to be talented and unframed.
Having either talent or training, alone,
does not insure success, however.
Highest human efficiency comes
only with training people in the lines
Many opponents of modern efficiency
systems and many who imagine them
selves to be versed in the principles
of "efficiency"-the class that has
discreted the word-regard the driving
of labor to the limit of endurance and
the purchasing commodities on price
considerations alone as the funda-
mentals of the subject
Nothing could be farther from the
truth. The fundamentals of the So
called scientific management or eff
ficiency engineering are the select
ing and training of people ma
turally fitted for particular tasks,
and the purchasing of commod
tiles and service with regard for the
total value derived and the total outlay
made through all channels. Money
spent is only one of many considera-
lions that enter into every transac-
tionS.
These are principles that the avar-
lciOus drivers of labor and the mig
gardly spenders of money could not
bear to apply if they could compre-
bend them, SO advancement toward
greater efficiency will always be hand
icapped to some extent.

Laws Would Do Away
With the PeStiferOus Fly

TT would appear, from what we
know of the life history Of the
common housef1y and from what
remedial experimentation has already
been carried on, that it is perfectly
feasible for cities and towns to SO
greatly reduce the numbers Of these
annoying and dangerous insects as to
render them Of comparatively slight &C
count The health departments of
most of our cities have the authority
to abate nuisances dangerous to health,
and it is easy for the health authori-
ties Of any city to formulate rules con-
corning the construction and care of
stables and the keeping and disposal
of manure which, if enforced, will do
away with the housefy nuisance.

All this advance has boen made in
order that the growing generation
might be qualified TO deal with the
perplexing, problems Of our eompli-
Gated civilization. Until within re-
cent years the utilitArianlsm OF edu-
cation has been political. The courses
OF study have been so arranged as
to give to the pupils some knowledge
or the history OF the world. some
understanding Of the elementary
principles Of government and some
appreciation OF the great underlying
fact that no democratic government
can advance more rapidly than the
people.
II our democracy IL to be pre-
served and IL We are to keep open
the opportunities for every boy to
rise to the heights TO which he may
aspire we must preserve the dsmoc-
raey OF the public schools. The boys
who expect to be lawyers must be
kept in touch as long as possible
with the boys who are planning to
be bricklayers. In order that there
may be greater sympathy between
them when they become men. The
bricklayer must know from actual
contact that the lawyer Is a man OF
like passions with him. and tho law
yer must understand that the me-
chanic Is q human being entitled to
the same protection of the laws that
he enjoys.
Every believer in free public edu-
cation must insist that specialization
In education must be delayed "a long
as possible in the life OF the child.
There can be no valid objection to a
limited introduction OF manual train
inR in the general course OF study,
for manual training has educational
value. No boy can make a box
until he has a clear conception OF
the completed box In his mind. II
he Is taught to think box out OF a
pile of boards he may learn how TO
