Jews Go Into Captivity

AS the prophet Isaiah appeared, these
words were read:
Hear, o heavens and give ear, o earth: for
the Lord hath spoken. I have nourished and
brought up children and they have rebelled
against me. =
Woe to the rebellious people, saith the
Lord, that take counsel but not of Me.
AS the prophets Hosea and Micah ap-
peared, the desolation of Israel was fore
told and as the prophet Jeremiah came
forward, the seventy years captivity of
Judah, under the king of Babylon, were
predicted, together with the rebuilding of
Jerusalem at the expiration of that time.
The Preparatory Chorus sang, "Seek
Ye the Lord" while a large company,
downcast and sad, marched across the plat
form on their way into captivity, attended
by Babylonian soldiers with javelins and
shields.
It would be hard to convey an adequate
idea of this scene depicting the great turn
ing point in the history of the Jews. Never
again were they to enjoy full national
independence until the Times of the Gen
tiles be fulfilled. The singing of the Chorus

along purely practical lines regarding the
growth and development of Zion Educa-
tional Institutions.
He said, among other things, that he
plainly saw the need of organizing Zion
College; that the day was not far distant
when no young person would be permitted
to go out from Zion into the schools of
the world. He asked: "Is it sufficient to
have church home for the members of
this church where the Zion principles and
the highest Christian ideals are taught.
and then send our boys and girls out into
the colleges and universities of the world
where they are compelled to listen to in
fldel lectures, where the Name of God is
scarcely ever mentioned except in derision,
and where the book of Genesis is ridiculed
as myth? Some professors in five
minutes could SOW seeds in the hearts of
these young people that would damn them
through eternity"
After selection by Zion Orchestra, two
very sweet little tots came upon the plat
form carrying a basket containing the
diplomas which were presented bv the
President
After the Benediction, the orchestra
played number of selections, while hun
dreds of friends and relatives came for
ward and offered congratulations to the
members of the class. Many beautiful
wreaths and baskets of flowers were pre-
sented.

Moses Preservation

A little girl of six came in bearing an ark
of bulrushes which she held with loving
care, and behind her followed a smaller
child in white Walking slowly and sadly,
the mother deposited the precious burden
among the flags along the river Nile Lift
ing the lid, she looked inside, and then,
kneeling on the platform, spread her hands
toward heaven and prayed that God would
protect the childs life. Rising, and again
lifting the lid, she took last lingering look
and then walked slowly away, her head
bowed as if in grief. Little Miriam then
came softly forward and peeped inside also;
then, walking away, stepped among the flags
and kept watch.
,Pharaoh's daughter, beautifully adorned
and attended by her maids, came strolling
by, and spying the little ark, bade one of her
maids bring it to her.
Finding the weeping babe the princess
picked it up and cuddled it in her arms
Turning, she saw little Miriam who had
drawn near and who asked if she might
bring nurse from among the Hebrew
women. Receiving permission, the child
scurried away, her little feet pattering down
the steps of the platform. Soon she return
ed with the mother who joyful1y received
the babe into her arms.
Nothing could have been more charming
than this scene depicted by these little girls

boys and six girls, who had successfully
completed the prescribed four years course
of study.
After an overture by Zion Orchestra,
the chorus, "Oh Zion,' was splendidly rem
dered by the full Preparatory Chorus,
both Junior and Senior, consisting of
about seventy voices. This was imme-
diately followed by the chorus, "Song of

Fall of Jericho

Ten lively little chaps, dressed as carpen-

and began erecting the walls of a city at a
tremendous pace greatly to the amusement
of the audience. When the wall was COM
pleted, little house was seen on top, with a
cord let down from the window. 1t repre-
sented Rahab's house; Joshua had given or
ders that only she and all that were with her
in the house should be saved alive of the
inhabitants of Jericho, because she had dealt
kindly with the messengers that were sent
to spy out the land.

DIVISION OF THE TWELVE
TRIBES
Jeroboam- -Rehoboam-Su Successors

Rehoboam, having just succeeded his
father, King Solomon, sat on his throne,
naughty and proud.
Jeroboam, who had held a position of
trust under King Solomon, until Ahiiah the
prophet foretold that he would eventually
rule over ten tribes of Israel and had then
been forced to flee for his life into Egypt,
came with all the congregation of Israel
and spake unto Rehoboam, saying:
Thy father made our yoke grievous: now
therefore make thou the grievous service of
thy father, and his heavy yoke which he put
upon us, lighter, and we will serve thee
And he said unto them, Depart yet for three
days. then come again to me. And the people
departed.-I Kings 1874, 5.
King Rehoboam then called in company
of old men that had stood before his father,
for counsel, and they advised him to speak
good words to the people.
He then called a company of young men
like himself, and with many gestures of
scorn they spurned and ridicu1ed the coun-
sci of the old men and advised ruling the
people with oppression.
So Jeroboam and all the people came to
Rehoboam the third day, as the king had ap-
pointed, saying, Come to me again the third
day.
And the king answered the people roughly
and forsook the old mems counsel that they
gave him;
And spake to them after the counsel Of the
young men, saying, My father made your yoke
heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father
also chastised you with whips, but will chas-
tise you with scorpions.-I Kings 12:12-14
Therefore, the ten tribes rebelled against
the house of David and made Jeroboam
king.
Nineteen successors of Jeroboam and
twenty successors of Rehoboam then ap-
peared upon the platform in rapid success
sion; also the various prophets with the
kings with whose reigns they were con-
nected.

Moses Leads the Exodus

And it came to pass, that at midnight the
Lord smote all the first born in the land OF
Egypt And Pharaoh rose up in the
night, he and all his servants and all the Egyp-
tians; and there was great cry in Egypt; for
there was not house where there was not
one dead And he called for Moses and Aaron
by night and said, Rise up and get you forth
from among my people, both ye and the chill
dren of Israel.
Turning, the audience saw very great
multitude approaching, the people leading
their little ones, and carrying kneading-
troughs, bound up in their clothes, on their
shoulders; also carrying jewels Of silver,
jewels of gold and raiment, for
The Lord gave the people favour in the
sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto
them such things as they required.
And a mixed multitude went up also with
them; and focks and herds, even very much
cattle
AS the head of the procession reached the
place where Moses was standing, he turned
and led them away toward the land Of
Canaan, while the entire school sang the
beautiful Hymn, "I Will Pass Over YOU"
