might find rich plumber in the cara
van. Ezra had proclaimed SO loudly
his confidence in Jehovah, that he did
not feel like calling on his king to
send company of soldiers to protect
the caravan, so he decided to put his
trust III his God and move forward.
First, however, he proclaimed fast
together with devout religious cere-
monies, and there were many prayers
for divine help in the dangerous times
lust ahead. -.-,.-.. -.--.--.. --,-.-
1t is recalled that there was much
treasure with the company. Ezra
took means to place this in the hands
of certain trusted members of the
company. He chose twelve of the
priests and to them, he weighed out
the money and valuables, telling them
| that when Jerusalem was reached, the
weighing would be verified by the
chief men in the temple there, to see
| if all was safely kept. Wise Man Ezra.
While he would not suspect that any
of his priests would make way with
the money and valuables, yet he took
business way to hold them account
able. There should be business rules
in handling the Lords money, as well
as that in the marts of trade. Ezra
set churchmen an excellent example
holding his people to strict account
for the trust put in them.
J 1t hardly need be put in the record
that God did protect that band of men
and women bart on doing His will.
They reached Jerusalem safe and the
treasure ives all there when the weigh
ling took place. The record says, The
hand of our God was upon us, and
He delivered US from the hand OF the
lenemy." The great truth of this les
son is the trust in God shown by Ezra
when he went forth with no guards
for journey of three months over a
trail usually beset with bandits. He
tasted and prayed in advance and
undoubtedly did the same thing on
the way. So shrewd man as he,
without doubt. took every precaution
to avoid danger. In later years, a
great leader gave advice: Trust IN
God and keep your powder dry" and
II expect Ezra carried the spirit OF
this injunction in his day.
On arrival at Jerusalem, Ezra as
isumed the leadership of the city, 1t
was he who made so deep an impress
lsion on the religious thinking of the
returned Jews that they held to his
forms OF worship up to the time OF
Christ, and then would not give them
Iup on the invitation of the Master.
Ezra found the Jews marrying with
the heathens and took such measures
as to stop this, and also to protect
the poor from the rich. All honor
to Ezra, The Scribe. He was on fire
with zeal for Gods cause, and did not
finch when given command OF the
great caravan for the journey. He
showed trust in God, tact in dealing
with his fellowmen, was fearless in
ATTACKING the ways of the Jerusalem
Jews and left an impression for good
on the jews for hundreds of years
after his death. Would that we had
today great body of men possessed
of his character!

To-Day. is red letter day in Crawford
county. The sale OF liberty bonds is
uppermost in the mind Of everyone.
This great work is being pushed with
supreme effort on the part of the loyal
and patriotic citizens of the county.
For a week or more number. Of our
citizens have. devoted, their whole time
to- the work Of selling liberty bonds,
with the result that more than $780,
s000. 90 of bonds have been sold, and
with the work of today it is predicted
that more than three.fonrths of mill.
ION dollars will be sold before night.
This means a. great sacrifice on the
part of those canyassing for the sale
of bonds. 1t is easy enough to talk
patriotism. but one discovers that the
man who talks most is doing about
the least in the actual work Of selling
bonds. The patriotic citizens are to
be known not by what they say, but
by what they do in the sale, of bonds
4 as IN everything else. The time has
come when we may as well speak
plainly. II man will not rise to the
+ occasion and do his patriotic duty as
a citizen should do, then he should be
branded as unpatriotic. If man is
In such financial condition that he
can, reasonably subscribe for. q liberty
bond and refuses, why should he sob'
jeet to being called Stacker; why
should he complain if his neighbors
condemn him for want of patriotism
The time for fault finding and com.
plaint because the government Is at.
tempting to raise money by the sale
of bonds to carry on the war is past,
and the man who has nothing to do
but find fault with his country must
expect to be dealt with as an un.
patriotic citizen and a Stacker.

Oct. %, 1917. Ezra's Return From
Babylon. Ezra 8: 1886.
/ Our minds are still to be turned to
the history of the Hebrews in the
days of their captivity in Babylon
Last week we learned of the return
of part of them to Jerusalem, and
how they rebuilt the temple on the
site of the one erected by Solomon,
We noted what a joyous occasion
this was.
The returned Jews did not keep up
to the full teachings OF their scrip
lures, and were fast falling away into
practices which were in disobedience
of Gods commands. Upon this situa'
vs1yOt ~ la ION
of the Old Testament, Ezra. Now
Ezra was one of the certain Jews
in Babylon who gave attention to the
study of the law of God, and he
was educated so that he was known
as Ezra, the Scribe, He heard OF
the condition of things at Jerusalem,
and was stirred with zeal to go to
that city and lead his fellow Jews
into ways which would be pleasing to
God. s... 4 -s H#f. -'- .~
Ezra found favor with Artaxerxes,
the Persian king, and was given per-
mission to head caravan to Jeru'
salem, there to be the governor un'
der the king. He not only had per-
mission to go but ample provisions
were, made for him to take great
wealth. to aid his fellow Jews. There
was exemption from taxation, and
command that officials give aid to
the party Our lesson today finds
Ezra and his people about to start
and at place called the river OF
Ahava .-. g. >..s''
Ezra, while full of zeal, was pos.
sessed OF much tact and common
sense. He found that there were few
priests with his party to act as spirit
ual advisers and attend to the temple
worship, so he called halt until
some of these were obtained. Now
