GOLDEN TEXT-rhe Lord Is merclful
and gracious, slow to anger, ana pien-
teous In mercy-Psalms 1O3S.
A profitable way to spend the h0ur
would be to make study OF Danlefs
prayer as recorded In the lesson as
signed for our reading today, and have
the lessons Of the quarter as illustrn-
tions of the goodness and severity or
God. Announcement Of the plan may
be made the Sunday before, ana the
different lessons Of the quarter as
signed to different members Of the
class to tell how they bear upon the
tonic Of the lesson for this week. A
broad analysis Of Daniels prayer Is as
follows
I. Confession OF the Nations Sins
wv. 3:15). The circumstances of this
prayer were extraordinary. The Crisis
was so serious that Daniel sought after
prayer TO the Lord with fasting, sack
cloth and ashes. In his confession the
peoples sins are placed In contrast
with Gods righteousness. He acknowl-
edges that their sorrows and sufferlngs
Justly belong to them. Daniel, the
holy man against whom there Is no
record Of wrongdoing, includes himself
with his people.
u. SupplIcation for Mercy and For
giveness wv. 1919. He pleads for
Gods anger and fury to turn away, and
his remembrance Of the Holy City and
his chosen people. The Lords honor
was at stake. He confesses that Israel
had no merit, were utterly destitute OF
rlghteouness, and pleads consideration
on the ground of covenant relationship.
Another way to conduct the review
would be to ask different members OF
the class to report on the different les
sons by giving the vital and central
teaching Of each. The following are
suggested as vital teachings of the
several lessons:
Lesson /. God Is absolutely holy,
therefore those who have been sancti-
fled by fire from the heavenly altar are
qualified for his service.
Lesson .. He who turns away from
the Lord shall be judged by the Lord.
Lesson 3. In Hezekiah's reformatory
work the Passover Feast was restored
showing that the only way to get peo-
pie to return to God Is to gather them
around the Cross of Christ-the Atone
ment by Blood.
Lesson 4. Though our unfalthfulness
and cOwardlce have shamefully humlll-
ated us, we should turn to God In
prayer.
Lesson 3. Gods gracious invitation
Is extended to all without money and
without price.
| Lesson 6. No matter how wicked one
may have been In his apostasy from
God, If he sincerely repents, God will
be found Of him.
Lesson Z. Regardless of ones age
and experience, God can use him In
doing mighty work If he will but open
his heart unto him.
Lesson g. The Word of God found
and read will nightly convict OF sin
and transform ones life and environ
ment.
Lesson 8. Gods predictions as to The
captivity Of Israel were fulfilled to the
letter. Nothing shall fail of that
which God has said he will do.
Lesson 10. Jehovah Is the shepherd
of captive Israel, and will surely gather
them out from their wanderings and
| save them.
Lesson II. One should be unfllnch
ingly loyal to God under all circum
stances.
Lessons II and 13. God Is able to de
liver those who trust him, from fire
and from wild beasts.

Washington, Nov 29.-So-called stacker commissions by which men of draft age seek to escape service in the ranks and get officers places in non-combatant branches of the army has struck snag in two general poli- cies laid down by Secretary Baker These are: First, that no man of draft age be commissioned, unless it is shown clearly that they are better fitted for the special work to which they are called than any civilian be- yond the draft age, whose services can be secured, and second, that no function of the army that can be car- ried on efficiently with civilians shall be placed on military footing by com mission the men to Supervise the work.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 2. - Con-
fusion as to just what American
export commodities may be shipped
entirely without restriction to the Al
lies and TO all neutral countries ex-
oept those Of Europe was cleared to-
day By the Exports Administrative
Poard in a statement listing some 600
