GOLDEN TEXT-Hes is my refuge and
my fortress,-Ps. 91:2.
Paul was rescued from the mob by
the prompt action Of Lysias, and was
saved from s%cOurging by revealing his
Roman citizenship (21 :27-22 :29).
Every true life, real social service, pa
triotism and national righteousness
rest upon the value of conversion to
Christ. The fundamental message Of
the Christian church must always be
regeneration. With this message Billy
Sunday is gripping the large cities,
and DR.. John r.. Mott is reaching the
student life of the world.
l. Paul's Account of His Early Life
". 1-5). BY his use of the Greek tongue
he obtained permission to deliver this
address, and by his wise use of the
Jewish language he gained the atten-
ton of the excited crowd. Paul as
serted his Jewish. origin. (Acts 21-39).
Tarsus, where he was born. had a uni
versity which rivaled those of Athens
and Alexandria, and Paul had probably
heard its great philosophers. Paul was
an educated man; he was brought up
in Jerusalem from his early bOyhOOd
at the feet of Gamaliel it's greatest
teacher. Thus his religious training
was according to the law of the ia

ness which is of the law" he was
blameless (Phil, 500. He was Jealous
for God, doing what he thought he
would have him do even when 'perse-
cuted this way" the way Of forgive
ness, salvation and righteousness.
Jesus said, Il am the way" Paul was
at this time an instrument in the hands
of the rulers, carrying out their plans,
but he exceeded them in his zeal for
"the traditions of our fathers (Gal.
1 I'D. He was not at all like those
Pharisees whom Christ condemned as
white sepulchers." He was not what
would term today, "a bad man."
II. Paul's Turning Point w. CPD.
Paul seems to pick out three different
crises in this rehearsal. (1) His inter-

he really was in his glory, a living
Savior (Cor. OIL; 1879. He had
positive proof of the resurrection from
the dead. This proof convicted him

had asked Jesus what he would have

darkness and conflict of those three
days of loneliness the questions must

danger and death? During this con
f1ict he must have had before him the
vision of what God would have him do,
and the work for which he chose him
wv. 1919. His vision and commission
constituted a strong motive for right
decision. During the vision he came
into the light, and confessed his faith
by his baptism. AS a result of those
three days and his interview with
Ananias he came to know Gods will
more fully. The next step was Of

until his words about the Gentiles- His
declaration that God had commanded

System Of Health Insur-
ance Needed to Pro-
tect Workers
BY DR.. wILMES KRUSEN, Director
of Health, Philadelphia

IHEN we consider that each
w wage Garner loses an average
of nine days work each year
through illness, resulting in a total
loss of approximately $500, 100000
and an additional loss of $1,000 O0,-
900 for medical treatment, an at
tempt to stay this cost by means Of
health insurance seems to be the
logical course in distributing the
enormous EXPENSE OF SICK
NESS AND THUS ELIMINATE
ING THIS SOURCE OF POWER
TY AND DEPENDENCE. .
Since the state is partly response
Bile for poor housing conditions and
unhygienic surroundings and since
employers are also partly response
BILE for sickness resulting directly or
Indirectly from labor conditions,
each should, therefore, help to bear
the cost of the disabilities which
the individual must endure at pres
ent without compensation.
AN EQUAL DISTRIBUTION OF
THE COST OF SICKNESS is THE
AIM OF HEALTH INSURANCE,
PLACING THE BURDEN OF SICK
NESS UPON THOSE RESPONSIBLE
FOR IT. NAMELY, THE STATE,
THE EMPLOYER AND THE INDI-
VIDuAE.

Human BsInss, Like Plants, Need Much
 of tho Outdoor Life.
 A home without windows was built for the blind in certain English com. munity. Scientific heating and ventila. tion were provided. But architects and trustees reasoned that light was not necessary in a house of sightless people.
 Then they discovered that human be- ings, like plants, ,dwindle md die when deprived of the light of the sun, And they had to remodel their building and let in the suns rays to keep the blind alive.
 Since the invention of the electric light we have all treated sunlight with amazing indifference. In summer es- pecially we spend much time, thought. energy and money protecting ourselves from the sun.
 And in so doing we often are acting not much more wisely than the com. mittee that built house without light for the blind. In summer, for instance, We try to escape the sun when we actu. ally ed its services in the cause of good health.
 So take your work and play out of doors when possible. Don't fear sun stroke Don't be afraid of sweat and tan.-Toledo News-Bee.

Grinnsd Into MatrImony.

That grinning matches were an ac, cepted form of sport in early English days is shown by an advertisement announcing a gold ring to be grinned for by men on Oct. 9 at the Swan, Coleshill heath, Warwickshire, which appeared in the Post Boy of Sept. IT. 171L Addison gives detailed ac. count of one of these controversies of faces," telling Us that the audience unanimously bestowed the ring on a cobbler who produced several new grins of his own invention, having been used to cut faces for many years together over his last"
 His performance was something like this: At the very first grin he cast every human feature out of his coun tenance, at the second he simulated the face of a spout, at the third that of a baboon. at the fourth the head of a bass viol and at the fifth a pair of nut crackers" Addison adds that a comedy wench whom he had wooed in vain for more than i've years was SC charmed with his grins that she mar ried him the following week.

DOLLARS VS. 100000

AS AN example of how men will work against their own interests, we call attention to several men who work for the Road Commission all summer at highly remunerative wages and then put their winters in working against the Road Commis- sion. In other words they work and talk for Delegate Wickersham, who works and talks against the Road Commission and it's work. MT. Wick ersham advocates the removal of the Road Commission offices to Juneau he also advocates removing the court house and cable office to Seward. If these things are taken out of Valdez with their immense payroll, what would become of our city? How many dollars year do you get out of these institutions? How many dol lars do you get out of Wickcrsham ? Balance the one against the other and which is of the most benefit to our city? The city could get along better without a Delegate; but its very existence depends upon it's clinging to Its payrolls.
