SWARM OF BEES
 RUNNING AT LARGE

Be on the watchout today, Tor you may suddenly be visited with a swarm of bees. The latest reports on the swarm waS that they were seen going northeast across Huntsville avenue, after having broken up housekeeping and departed from their home at 2011 North Fourteenth avenue.
 Any information as to the home or the future spot where the swarm of bees seem to be intent on locating. will be ca gerly received at Main S522. The owner is careful about the kind of a location his swarm picks for home. They are young and reckless, the owner thinks, and are liable to do something rash, so he asks that those that get any informa- ton as to their whereabouts to commit nicate with him at once, as he wants the swarm back before it goes astray.

LARGE CLASSES
 CONF IRM ED AT
 HEBREW CHURCHES
Dr. NewfieId Officiates Over Largest Class In His 25 Years PastOrate.
 Feast of Weeks

Beautiful music and the confirma- ton of the largest class of boys and girls in the history of the temple marked the celebration of the Feast of the Weeks at the Temple Emanu- Fl yesterday.
 The unusually large class of con firmants consisted of eleven girls and seven boys. They were specially trained for their part in the service yesterday. The list of the members of the class is as follows:
 Leta Bertman, Clara Ehlbert, Helen Fein, Irma Goldsmith, Evelyn Hein- drich, Edith Gzitzman Florence Morris, Rena Rosenfeld, Gertrude Strauss Emma Marie Ullman, Ethel Wohl, Ju- ian Aland, Floyd Brandes, Seymour Kronenberg, Joe Lipsitz, Betram Min isman, J. D. Rosenberger and Harold RGbenstein.
 To the strains of a march from the organ, they mounted the altar, the girls dressed in white with bouquets of pink roses. AS the confirmation service proceeded, each member of the class told of some part of the lessons they had been taught as conf;rmants Rabbi Newfield gave them a short talk of advice and extended to them his blessing.
 This is the twenty-fifth class which has been confirmed by Rabbi Newfield since he took charge of the congrega- tion of Temple Emanu Fl twenty five years ago. It is the largest that has ever been confirmed during his min istrations.
 The musical programme consisted of several vocal selections by the choir of four voices and instrumental music from a violin and harp.
 The Feast of Weeks, or in Hebrew w SEabouth is one of the most ancient celebrations of the Jews. It is the continuation of an old agricultural fes- ttvai signifying spring which was cele- ated in Biblical times. An older tra dition gives it as the anniversary of the giving of the ten commandments to Moses on Mount Sinai.
 The agricultural feature of the feast is celebrated by the confrma ton services, signifying the gathering of the tender wheat into the storehouses of the Isrealites
 Special services were also held by the orthodox Jew members of the Knes- seth Israel congregation. Rabbi Mem delsohn received a large class of chil- dren into the congregation, and a mu- sical programme was given. Today will also be celebrated by this congre- gation as part of the feast The spe- cial services will be continued at the temple.

''TEMPTAION," THEME
 OF SERMON AT LYRIC
 BY DR. H. M. EDMONDS

Christ, the young man, standing be- fore the multitude, declaring his pro gramme. having been ''won from tho devil. l."-this was the picture and the m essage involved in Dr. Henry M Ed monds' sermon ast night at the Lyric theatre.
 Christ returned to Galilee," said Dr Edmonds, fin the power of the spirit proclaiming to the people that he was not the Comfortable Messiah, the Pleas ing Messiah, the Greedy and Ambi- tous Messiah, but one who had come to preach to the poor release the cap tives and heal the blind and broken hearted.
 Jesus was under a real tempta- tion in the wilderness; if it was not real, then Jesus was not real; if it was not real, then He cannot stand in the breach with you and me today. He sat there communing with Him. self, having been annointed by John, doing battle with the impure motives and conceptions that assailed Him.
 The temptation of the bread was that of self indulgence. You and 1 were in the balances that day when the temptation came to Him to be the Messiah. And the tempta- tion of the pinnacle was the tempta- tlon to uo what the crowd expected, to satisfy the people to be a Pleas ing Messiah. The other was the temp tation to be ambitious. to take what the world offered, to be a power man. drunk on glory.
 Then came his dramatic triumph He emerged from the wilderness in the power of the spirit with His pro- clearly laid out in His mind, having overcome just such tempta tions as assail you and me today.
 Our best possessions are won out of temptations and tribulations comes in order that inno- cence may become virtue. Tribulations come in order that the grain may be separated from the husks. They give flavor and color and substance. And those who suffer them and come out become heralds of the glad

 AT TIE JEFFERSON
Famous Military Organiza- tion to Stage Unique Per fOrmance as Part of
 Campaign

 While the marine show is given ex- cIusively by members of the Marine Corps, it is said by those who have wit messed the performance that 1t is diff ficult to believe that the members of the company are not professional for tlere is nothing amateurish in the whole performance.

The show is part of one of the most extensive educational and recruit ing campaigns to be conducted by any branch of the service and will be launched in Birmingham with the ar rival of the Rowing Marines" The production, designed entirely as a re- cruiting stunt, is said to be extensive and interesting enough to divert all theatregoers.

The detachment consists of over sixty men, including the champion rifle shot of the United tSates, a pistol expert of international reputation, as well as dis tiuguished characters in the United States Marine Corps including First Sergeant Daniel Daily the only en- listed man in any branch of the service to hold two congressional medals of hcnor

Rev. Ware Preached on "The Comforter" at
 St. Andrews Church

At the morning service yesterday the Rev. J. T. Ware, rector of St. Andrew Church, preached a strong sermon on "The Coming of the Comforter" MT Ware said in part:
 Ask and ye shall receive, but not necessarily what you ask for Legions of unanswered prayers prove that pray CT does not make God give us what we want. Why pray if praying only gets for us what God would give anyway?
 Prayer does not necessarily make men good What of the superstitious criminal who regularly prays Gods blessings upon a projected murdeM
 Facts such as these give the lie to the ordinary hypothesis that prayer is the means of wheeling something-per- haps an automobile, perhaps joy and gcodness-out of God. And we may be glad they do; for such praying is mere ly heathenish incantation.
 "Unhapply men persist against all reason in clinging to such notions about prayer. Then crisis comes. They pray. The prayer does not work So they con- elude there is no God and that prayer is a delusion
 Again, against all reason they ignore this pertinent fact: Men, very often men who have fully faced the difficult ties about prayer, find guidance, comfort and inspiration in praying This can no, be controverted
 Prayer is tap by which we draw
 on the miraculous This is one hypo- tfesis about prayer. Another is. Prayer is delusion.' Neither can stand the test of observed facts But therA is a third hypothesis which is valid: Prayer is the means by which the Comforter comes to the Christian.
 V1,1 tt.1 same flame flare from a factory chim- ney. Beautiful. picturesque" cries the artist; 'Copper-note the green color, comments the chemist We see the facts of life in the light of our predominant interest What to the prodigal is an op- portunity for vicious pleasure, to the saint is grieyous temptation. If the world is in our hearts. an enemy in our Lower is an opportunity for vengeance if Christ, for forgiveness. As all else upon the stage is seen in subordination to the object upon which the spotlight plays, so everything in our conscious ness subordinates itself to what we make central there. Christian prayer consists in forcing the Ideal. Christ. into the center of consciousness, surveying the difficulties and problems of life in the light of His presence. and learning what God would have us to do.
 Today. Whitsunday, commentaries not the Holy Spirit in general, but the coming of the Comforter If it's mes- sage is of a room filled with super national rushing wind and miraculous tongues of fire, it not only strains our credulity but it has for us no meaning Cloven tongues do not light upon our heads anyway. But the real message is that God has given man a faculty by which he can secure guidance By pray ing in Christ's name we can steer the ship of our lives by Him"
