makers and inspirers of all the race,
Such were David and Jonathan. David
could never have reached the place of
faYorlte to the Hebrew if he had not
enriched his heart with something of
Jonathan's loyalty nor could the Prince
have been so regal had he not shared
the soul of the democratic sbepberd
Friendship whether between EQUALS ss

tween unequals as man and God, is al
ways sharing of lives and religion is
perhaps best understood under the term
of friendship where Christ placed if
when He said, ''Ye are nv friends ,,
AND shared life is always enlarged and
enriched life.
THE EMMESHED LIFE,
Jonathan and David were kindred
spirits from their first meeting The
courage, daring and simplicity of the
one was matched by that of the other
and they must haye been comrades al
ways when David was about the court
And it must haye been a rare low for
Jonathan to be best man at the we'd
ding of Princess Michael where a new
bond was forged between the two.
Davld's spring into popularity gave the
Prince no concern tho it roused the
Jealousy of the King. Saul speedily
recognized the peril to his sons posi-
ton If David continued to thrall the
hearts of courtier and peasant alike.
His thronging had been elective and
the Hebrew had never had an hereid-
tary rule so that there was really an
open. field for the coming monarch.
Saul was determined that it should stav
IN the family and threw his sword into
the scale. David must be beaten fairly
If possible but beaten he must be
Jonathan played the game in the open
and hoped his friend would win. Jona-
than was a sure rejoicer whichever wav
the tide set. Saul was poor loser and
determined on the death of David and
the use of all governmental machinery
to insure his great sons coming to the
throne. And Jonathan became en-
meshed in the chicanery of Saul. There
must be for him the choice of loyalties
for the King was his father and wheth-
er right or wrong he loved him and
loved the land he ruled. Splendidly as,
the boy fought for the friend he had
espoused he saw him driven into exile,
put in peril of life itself and tho he saw
ed that life more than once as the
thrilling story of these chapters shows
he remained az the court and shared it's
dimmed glory. To the end he strug-
gled to prop mis- fathers power and fell
in battle at his side never able to ex-
tricate himself from the family follies.
He might save David but like Jesus.

ed at the annual meeting on Jan 5
This is as it should be and after they
have been elected they deserve the
hearty support OF every taxpayer il

The voters are to be congratulated
on the fine spirit shown at the eau

"bimbo' tactics and have a clean con

be no anonymous propaganda, but
that any voter who has any sugges-
