figure for our consideration each
week. AS the Saviour Of the world
and the best example Of the perfect
man, interest always attaches to Him,
and we cannot have our minds drawn
too often to His sayings and life work.
The second book of the gospel,
Mark, is to be followed. 1t has Sec
ond place to the gospel of John, but
in style OF language, and subject mat.
ter it ranks high in the minds OF all
bible students. Mark does not go in
to q history of the birth of Christ,
but starts out with a few verses on
John the Baptist, and then comes to
the first appearance Of Christ as a
man when He came to the river Jor-
dan to begin His ministery by con
forming to the rite of baptism as adj
ministered by John.
1t can be assumed that all readers
know about John. He it was whose
birth was made known to his father,
a Jewish priest, while he was per-
forming his duties in the temple at
Jerusalem. 1t was he who retired
from the habitations of men, to in
time appear with the stirring message
that new times were at hand: there
was cause for repentance and turning
from ways of sin, for the promised
Messiah was to come at once. It was
John who was clothed in the raiment
Of dweller in the desert and whose
food was such as could be found raw
in the woods and caves of the noun
tains and non fertile lands for agr-
culture. 1t is reported that he was
clothed in garments made Of the hair
of the camel and he ate wild honey
and the locusts Of the desert.
John made a great impression on
his hearers. Crowds came from the
cities and the country about to hear
him, and very many were convicted
of sin by his preaching, and were Civ
EN- the visible sign of repentance by
baptism in the waters of the Jordan
river. AS I understand it, baptism
was known before the days of Jesus,
and was not thus established by Christ
or His disciples as something needed
and a part Of the religion taught by
Him. When one saw new light as
to his or her religious conditions and
attitude. confessed that there had not
been right living in the past, and
there was desire to make public dec
of the change in life, among
other things. they were baptpiZed. 1t
was thus considered the right things
to do by the Jews, when taking this
new stand and deciding to live sne-
cially virtuous and pious life, to be
baptized. 1t was therefore the right

and proper thing for Jesus to do when
starting on His public career when
He was to live perfect life, to be
baptized the same as others who We're
setting out also on way thought to
be specially pleasing to God.
John called for repentance on the
part of his converts. In speaking Of
his performance Of the rite of baptism,
he told of one yet to come who would
baptize with something different, the
Holy Ghost" John said: 81 indeed
OaptiZe you with water; but He shall
baptize you with the Holy Ghost" On
the day when Jesus came to John
the preacher knew him and at first
did not want to baptiZe Him. Jesus,
however. caid suffer" or do this now,
Tor thus | shall appear before the peo-
ole to lave fiiilled all Righteousness.
Then tho act was performed.
There nov came supernatural oc-
Currencc after the baptism Of Jesus,
for the heaven cro~ed to omen. some
object which r1lld be seen seemed to
light on the head OF Jesus and there
was a'voice from out the heavens say
ing: Thou are my beloved Son: in
whom I am we'll pleased" This was
given both to confirm the faith of
John. as we'll as serve notice on the
waiting people, who the man baptized
truly was. That was indeed a most
remarkable scene.
We are now launched on series of
lessons on the life of Jesus, the great
est and best man who ever lived. By
faith in Him our lives on earth will be
the better, and we gain blessed eternal
life after physical death. Let us all
resolve to pay good heed to His words,
and to follow His example in our lives.

PREPAREDNESS IS THE
MOTTO OF COMPANY

To boost the War Savings Stamps,
9, 200 school children recently paraded
the streets of Canton, o. The COM
nAttee in charge. approaching the lift
which could be given the government S
thrift scheme through the moving pic
ture. telephoned the morning of the
parade to a moving picture news
weekly in Cleveland. suggesting the
possibility of taking a film of the
parade.
The director found no way, even the
automobile, to get his camera man to
Canton in time for the parade. Then
he thought of the film work of the
Firestone Tire and Rubber Co., at
Akron, O., midway between the two
cities, and telephoned the tire COM
pany to see if it could help him out
you bet" was the terse reply, and
in ten minutes the company's film di-
rector and a camera man were on
the way to Canton. The STORY was
covered" the Firestone expert arrang-
ing many incidents to help carry over
the message of "Save for the Sam
mics"
One feature which proved especial
ly striking resulted from the Woe
begone expressions of some little Grip
pies and some tots who couldn't
parade. Immediately. a truck was
furnished by the local Firestone tire
agents, decorated with flags and bunt-
ing, and the Riddles led the parade,

Republic Tomorrow.

A mans hatred of a faithless wife
wreaked on his son, is the theme of
"A Mothers Sin" the Vitagraph Blue
Ribbon Feature. which will be the at
traction in the Republic Theatre on
Tuesday In this powerful drama
written by Hilda Sharpe, the father
permits the son to go the pace, and
then when he is hopelessly in debt,
disinherits him in the hope of gloat-
ing over his disgrace. But the son
tlfwarts him to the extent of leaving
the country and the father dying real
ICES the great injustice he has done.
He makes a new will which does not
come to light for several years.
Meanwhile a profigate nephew gets
the estate and almost gets the girl the
son loves. but finally the will is dis
covered and all turns out happily. The
picture is replete with strong situa-
tions which are well taken care of by

EAT POTATOES-EAT
EN- BY CAR LOAD.

Not freight car, necessarily, but mo-
tor car When you drive into the
oountry-you who live in potato sec
tions-bring back sack or two in
your car Then eat them, many ways,
every day. several times day. Not
an idea that will save the country
but it will help save the big food re-
serve that will soon begin to sprout
if ii isn't eaten.
Let this fact sink in deepi Unless
we increase our consumption of pota-
toes markedly within the next few
weeks, says the Department of Agri-
culture. there will be a loss of much
wheat-replacing food. If that hap
pens, farmers may think we don't
want so many potatoes and not grow
enough this year Americans ought
not to allow that sort of food disas-
ter to occur.

new musical play will be the attrac-
ton at the Colonial Theatre tomorrow
night.

cally American in it's viewpoint. JOY
OUT youth is the keynote of it's con-
struction. and merriment, laughter
and love are its chief characteristics.

concerned with the adventures of a
dashing American girl whose beauty,
wit and daring carry her successful
" through a maze of entanglements
which threaten disaster. 1t is not
serious enough to tax the mind I'M
necessarily. but just a succession of
merry scenes punctuated by moments
OF intense love interest. Chief among

German c.mounaoe.

A British air officer, writing from
the western front. says that the Ger
mans have this spring brought Cam
outage TO state of artistic perfection
that is almost incredible. "The most
expert and highly experienced airmen
are often deceived even when flying
low he writes "As a first step, the
German military authorities sought
suggestions from the most distin-
guished German artists in color. As
a next step, every available man was
turned ON TO the business of carrying
out the artists ideas. Miles Of canvas
painted to look like roads were con-
structed, under which regiments could
march without being seen. Paper en-
equipments were improved and aero
dromes. woods, villages and factories
Of a purely fictitious character were
set up merely to distract observers and
to cover the movements Of troops and
guns. Nothing on so vast scale has
ever been attempted before"
