SPEAK ENGLISH.

Sibley Tribune: Governor Harding's
proclamation should settle the Ian
guage question to the satisfaction OF
people generally. Every one living in
America ought to learn the official Ian
guage of the country. He would expect
to learn German if he took up resi-
dence in Germany or the speech OF any
other country which he chose as an
abiding place. There will never be a
better time to begin using; the common
tongue than now when every loyalist
is likely to have the same hopes and
aspirations. The language that Wash
ington and Lincoln spoke is good
enough for any man living and deriv'
ing his substance from American soil
Now it isn't. John Jones or Bill Smith
or somebody one may not like very
well advising the use of English, but
the governor Of this great state. who
gives good reasons for the employment
Of the tongue One may avoid suspic'
ion by usng English. The new espion
age law is rather stern and persons
employing an unfamiliar language are
more likely to be suspected Of disloy'
atty than those who speak the common
language of the country. Much trouble
may be averted by needing the gov
ernor's proclamation.

June 6. Jesus Faces Betrayal and
Denial. Mark IA, 1926.
We have for our thought this week
that great event. in the life Of Jesus
His last evening with His disciples be-
fore His death on the cross.
"The last evening". With the ten
thousands of partings which have TAX
en- place in the past year in American
homes it is hardly necessary to dwell
on what the last evening means. For
the last time it may be, there is the
seating about the supper table as Of
yore, the conversation being on the
parting soon to come. The words then
spoken. the love then expressed, have
indelibie place. in the mind and heart
of the mother anyway, and with the
rest of the family, probably. ~
The meeting in the upper room in
Jerusalem will stand out before the
followers of Jesus to- all ages. The
reason for the gathering as far as the
disciples were aware was to observe
the old Jewish custom of "eating the
Passover" To Jesus it was the last
time before the awful scenes of his
trial and death that He could be with
them alone and be able to talk with
them. Jesus told them that with much
desire had He longed for and set store
on this last interview. AS many are
aware, it was at this time Jesus gave
utterance to those most remarkable
and important words found in the IA,
Is, 16 and 18th c.4apter of John. In
the 14th there can be found: the com
forting words beginning Let not your
hearts be troubled" 81 60 to prepare
a place for you," II will come again.
The 18th begins Il am the true vine,"
"Ye are the branches" The 10th tells
the disciples that it is best and ex-
pedient that He go away for the Com.
forter will come. The eth Is pray
err that God will keep and sactify be-
levers. 1t would be we'll if everyone
knew by heart the majority of the
chapters here spoken of.
The place for the supper had been
with secrecy chosen so that there need
be no disturbance from their Jewish
enemies. In the beginning Jesus
washed the feet of the disciples, CIV
ing an example of humility and that
He came to be the servant. 1t was
then Peter objected. to the feet wash
ing and was rebuked. Then, came the

celebration Of the Passover which
brought to remembrance the scenes
on that last night of the Jews in
Egypt, when the death angel passed
over each home where there was blood
on the door post and the meal was
made up of bread made in haste with
no yeast and eating the flesh ,Of the
lamb slain, whose blood had obtained
the ransom from death from the de-
stroying angel on that great night. It
the startling announcement that one
of the disciples would betray Him."
There was added that fearful sentence
ut were good for the betrayer had he
not been born" On request of the
disciples Jesus made known that the
betrayer was Judas. TO the ordinary
mind there comes the thought that
there was yet time for Judas to have
repented when it became plain that
his plot was known. Wretched man
that he was. The spirit of the evil
one had so possessed him that he
would not stop. How terrible it is
now to see one who with eyes open
rushes to destroy, as he thinks, the
power and good ness Of Jesus. There
is time when repentance may come,
but then it is too late to prevent re-
morse and the penalty falling.
After Judas had gone out there was
a closer drawing together of the
group. Then Jesus, usingthe bread on
the table as typical OF His broken
body and the wine as typical Of the
blood Of the lamb which saved from
death the Jews of old, instituted all1
other Last Supper and gave com.
mand that it should be, observed for
all time In remembrance" of Him
and, His death What a; glorious and
blessed privilege for every believer
that he or she can take. part in cere-
mony which was commanded to be
observed by Jesus, thus giving evil
dence oof, belief that He will 4. come
again and that His death on the cross
saves from spiritual death. In some
churches the Lords supper is cele-
brated every Sunday, in others but
once month, a quarter or at other
stated intervals. ~ 2 49, a4,s4s54tt Is II
With what calnlness apparently did
Jesus face betrayal and death He
knew full we'll what was in store for
Him, yet His thought was to tell the
disciples the host Of encouraing things
written in the chapters before named
so that when the end came there
would be comfort and strength for
them. These words go further how
ever, and form the most precious por-
ton of the bible to all christians dur
ing the ages since delivered, and for
all time to come, It is needless to
