Ride triumphantly;
Behold we lay
Our lusts and proud wills In Thy way.
Jesus grief is In strange contrast
with the Joy of the multitude. The
practical application for us today Is:
"Have we cast our talents before him,
Gods rightfully anointed King?" There
had been large company Of people
present when Jesus was at the tomb
Of Lazarus, and raised him from the
dead. The testimony of these eye
witnesses to the power Of Jesus must
have had great weight with the multi
tude. The enthusiasm of this crowd
for Jesus excited the hatred Of the
Pharisees. making 1t all the more In
tense, for they saw the crowd forsak-
Ing them, and following one whom
they envied and hated. To one anoth-
er they exclaimed. Behold, how ye
prevail nothing" Notice the personal
pronoun "ye," seeking to lay the fault
upon others rather than taking their
own share of the burden, another
touch Of human nature which Is evil
dent even today.

when the work of Jesus for the Jews
was to be finished. The Jews had
been threatened with Greek religion,
and that assault had been stopped by
the Pharisees. Christ came first to
the Jews that through them he might
reach the Gentiles. Now his work for
the Jews is done. He rejoices as he
sees the Greeks coming to him, for 1t
was to be in Greek dress and in Greek
form Of expression that Christianity
was to conquer the world. But this
rejoicing is tinged with sorrow, for It
was a prophecy of the price that he
must pay for the redemption of the
world. =

LESSON
LESSON FOR APRIL 20
JESUS WELCOMED AS KING.


GOLDEN TExT-Blessed is the King
OF Israel that cometh in the name of the
Lord-John 1918.
This lesson marks the beginning Of
that last tragic week in the life of
our Lord, the most important week in
all> history since creation. The date
was probably April 1, A. D. 80.
!. The Lesson Of His klnshIp. wv.
12-1e). Reading carefully the record
Of each evangelist, regarding this tri-
umphal entry, we are still at loss
fully to describe the scene. It oc-
CURED the day following the supper in
the home Of Mary and Martha and
Lazarus, 1. e. on the Jewish Sabbath.
From Bethphage Jesus sent two Of
his disciples into Jerusalem to secure
the colt. They were to loose him with
out asking anyone's permission, and
bring the ass and her colt to him to
whom oil things belong, with no other
explanation than, "The Lord hath need
Of them" (Matt. Fl :3). This command
was In line with the prophecy Czech.
9:9). The young ass was a symbol Of
peace, but the going Of the disciples,
in obedience to his command. was an
act Of faith, and obedience is the SUI
preme test of discipleship John
1914. In response to their faith,
they found everything just as he said
1t would be Uuke 1892. Placing
their garments upon the colt Matt.
21:O Jesus rode upon 1t toward the
nrtyn UIIocon1ov
literally, "Save, beseech" Cps. 10 81
40; see Luke 10 :3s; Nix. II :9-16; Matt.
p 10y. The enthusiasm of the moment
was tremendous. For the moment this
great crowd (Mk. II :S) believed that
Jesus was really the Messiah, threw
the garments Of their holiday attire in
his way Matt. 81 ~, and cast their
palm branches before him. The Phari-
sees protested duke 10 :39-4O) but the
enemies of Jesus for the moment were
impotent John 12:19). The Phari-
sees forgot their dignity to such an
extent as to get excited along with the
multitude, though with another pur-
pose (See Luke 10 :37-40). Unfor-
tunately the enthusiasm of the peo-
PIC was HUI lonS-liVeu. many OF tne
same ones were soon crying, "Crucify
him" (Ch. 10 :14-15). Jesus himself
did not join in the general joy duke
10 :41-44), for he, with prophetic eye,
saw the outcome Uuke 10 :41-44).
II. Tho Lesson Of Reverence wv. II
49, 1t is one thing to acknowledge
Jesus as King. 1t is quite another to
revere him as Lord and Savior. Never
was there time when we need more
to have reverence for things holy and
for constituted authority than the
present day. The act of reverence on
the part of this multitude for the God
anointed King ought to be suggestion
to those who look upon Jesus merely
as a man.

increase and speculation will not
be eliminated.
Commissioner Hartigatl explains
just how and where the bill Mr..
Hoover favors and Senators Gore,
Reed and Vardaman oppose, would
reach into infinite avenues of
American life, disturb business, -
ect. 1t would knock speculation
in foodstuffs into a cooked hat, and
why these Senators should oppose
that effect is a question for their
suffering constituents 10 digest.
Another disturbance" it would
cause for government to embark
upon an enterprise of varied dam
ders' is in the provision to give
the President power--as the case
is stated by the New York Worlds
Washington correspondent to
formulate plans to head of the py-
rauiding of prices for coal and
other articles for war and doines-
tic uses"
1t is apparent TO the government
officials who rave been called on to
look into the matter that. unless
some decisive step is taken to pre-
vent the proposed extortions, the
price of coal will soar to unprece-
dented heights during the coming
fall and winter. 1t would not be
surprising. in fact unless some
way is found by the government
exercising the authority conferred
on it by congress to stop the ra-
pacity of the coal combination. if
private consumers would be com
peeled to pay from 515 to $40 ton
for what they are now obtaining
at from Sc to IS. The coal pro-
ducers who have been here in con-
sultation with officials of the gov
ernm ent do not deny that prices
for their output will increase from
80 to 10 per cent. Their attempts
to justify the unprecedented in
crease in prospect are neither ori-
gina1 nor convin cling.
