Iconium; Lystra was IS miles south
west of Iconium. II was the home OF
Timothy who later became a helper
Of Paul.
The apostles healed man whose
feet were deficient from his birth.
Timothy may have heard Paul preach
at this time. But again opposition
arose, notwithstanding the large
number who believed. 1t was here the
heather people wanted to offer sacri-
fices to Paul and Barnabas, saying
1.-THE gods have come down to u.s.
They called Barnabas Jupiter, and
Paul Mercury, two heather gods. But
the apostles forbade them, saying I'VE
are men of like passions with you"
Then they preached to them OF the
true God who made heavens and
earth and the sea and all things that
are therein" Jews from Antioch and
Iconium came down to Lystra to per-
secute the apostle and led the people
to stone Paul so that they left him for
dead. Paul and Barnabas now depart
ed to Derbe, preached the gospel there,
and returned to Lystra, Iconium and
Antioch in Pisidio, where they had
preached before.
In these cities they had established

churches and they returned to them
TO confirm and establish them. They
ordained elders in all of them and
"exhorted them to continue in the
faith, and that they must through
much tribulation enter into the king
dog of God" They prayed with these
churches and tasted and Commended
them to the Lord, on whom they be-
! lieved."
Passing through Pisidia, they came
to Pampjhilia, and when they had
I preached the word in Perga they went
down into Alfalfa, and thence sailed
to Antioch in Syria from where they
had started. There they called the
church together that had sent them
out, and told to them the wonderful
story Of their experiences. "And how
God had opened the door of faith to
the Gentiles. And there they abode a
long time" ~ N
Thus the gospel was planted in Asia
minor through the courage and sacri-
fices of these godly men. 1t is a won
derful record. We are interested in it,
because in this tour the gospel was
moving toward Europe, the home of
our ancestors. We will see later how
Paul aud Silas crossed over into Mace
donia and planted the kingdom on Eu-
ropean soil. We learn here something
OF what it cost to bring the gospel to
us, and we must not hesitate to make
similar sacrifices to carry it on to
those who still are in heather dark
ness. 1t is in this same territory that
the Turks are now prosecuting the Ar
menians and Greeks and others, seek
ing to destroy them utterly. This
should stir US to great activity in
relieving the distressing wants of
these people.
In some place in heather lands our
missionaries today have experiences
similar to those Of Paul and Barnabas,
but inspired by the same spirit they
are pressing on to victory over the
head of all opposition. We are operat-
ing on larger scale now. Thousands
of missionaries are penetrating the
remote parts Of the world, and are
sowing the seeds Of eternal truth that
will finally displace false religions
with the true and prepare the world
for the second coming Of Christ. Let
each of us see that he is doing his full
share in this glorious work.

In our last lesson we had Paul's
wonderful sermon in Antioch of Pisidia
The Jews would not accept Paups
teaching, so he turned to the Gentiles.
He said to the Jews: ut was neces-
sary that the Word Of God should first
have been spoken to you, but seeing
you put 1t from you, and Judge your
selves unworthy of everlasting life,
10, we turn to the Gentiles." Paul al
ways went to the synagogue, when
there was one, and offered Christ to
the Jews first. He loved his own peo-
pie. After preaching at this Antioch
with great success, and "in the region
round about" the mob drove them
away. They came then a Iconium.
Here they preached in the synagogue
with great power and many believed,
both Of Jews and Greeks" Here they
abode long time" and wrought many
signs and wonders. Here the Jews and
Gentiles Joined their forces to perse-
cute them, but they escaped to Lystra
and Derbe.
1t was 80 miles from Antioch to

SHOVEL PRESERVED
20 YEARS UNDER BRIDGE,
The Braoken County Review says:

The Bracken County Review says:
A shovel was found in the abuttt-

few days ago. This abuttment was
built about seventy years ago and the
shovel had lain in the water all these
years, and when taken out from un-
der a heavy timber and washed of 1t
appeared almost as good as new, but
when the handle came in contact with
the air It was not long until the wood
could be picked to pieces with ones
fingers.

ALABAMA TO MEET
 TULANE ELEVEN IN POSTSEASON CAME
Prospects Are For a Hard Schedule for CrimSonS
 Next Season

University. october 1S.-- -tspecialo The long -talked-of Tulane-Alabama post-season football game has finally been arranged, and the Crimsons will battle the Greenbacks in New orleans on Saturday, December g.
 The latest addition to Alabamas s schedule gives the Crimsons their eleventh game for the 1921 season, composing one of the longest sched- ulss any team has 10 face this sea- son.
 Itsis very probable that a return battle will be played next season either as regular game or a post season affair. It has been rumored that the game might be played on Armlstice Day, giving the home coming alumni a regular football game on Denny field
 With Texas A. and M. already cinched, negotiations under way for games with Columbia and Tulane, it seems that Alabama will have her strongest schedule next season. A lineup of Tulane, Texas A. and NJ. Columbia, Vanderbilt, Georgia, Se vance, Mississippi A. and NJ. and one of two other class A teams forms one Of the hardest schedules of any southern team.

throw so that it was either too long or too short
 Lots Of Work To Dc | Tho Tigers have world of work ! to do before they perfect an offense that will measure up to the defense and before they gain the accuracy I In forward passing that is necessary 10 make the aerial game prove itself 10 be worth the candle. Whether or not these flaws can be smoothed out ! by next Saturday remains to be seen 1 Only four days of practice are pos 1 sible for the Tigers, as the team will leave Friday morning for Bir- mingham; but those four days vii without doubt see the most stren- uous work the Tigers have engaged Yin during this season.
 When the news that Alabama had defeated Bryson 95 to reached the Tiger camp 1t was readily seen tha' on the face of comparative scores Sc vance and Alabama were about evenly matched. On the face of the returns so far IL would seem that the game next Saturday will be 9 battle royal, one worth going miles to see; and the alumni of both institutions who will be out ought to get their moneys worth, and then some. At no time in recent years have these teams appeared so evenly ma tened, and It is moro than possible that the breaks of the game will decide the issue
 In the Ogletborpe game the Tigers were minus the services of two regu- iars--Skidnore and Powers. Skid is suffering with sore leg and d sore arm and Powers has a bad foot The coaches were not willing to take the chance of hindering their recovery, 30 they were not permitted to get into the game. Big Skid is q power in the line with his 240 pounds of beef, and Powers is tho best broken field runner seen at Sewanec for sev- eral seasons. Both of these men, barring accidents. will be in shape for the game ln Birmingham.

Sewanee, .enn.. october 1S.-(Spe- cial )--On to Alabama Is the Tiger cry. now thas Oglethorpe has beer safely disposed of, To this end every effort of the coacnes this week will he to bolster up the weak points which the game last Saturday brought out, and 10 put the finishing touches to 8 machine that it is hoped will be returned the victor hen it meets the Thin Red Line sn Birmingham next Saturday
 The game with Oglethorpe showed that the Tigers have strong de- fensive team, but one that is not yet strong on offense, or at least not as strong as 1t should and can be. Although the Tigers were outweighed d fully 15 pounds to the man, Oglc- thorpe was able to annex but two first downs, and never at arN time threatened tho Purple goal.
 Tiger Offense Fails
 But time and again the Tiger ot- fense failed at the critical moment, and the Petrels were able to turn back the Purple warriors when Il touchdown seemed imminent. Only once was the OGlethorpe goal line rossed on straight football, and then after Baird tho plucky little Sewanee quarter, playing with a sore leg, had caught the Petrel offense mapping, and ran himself around the end when a line buck was expected. The other touchdowns came as the result of recovered tumble by the Sewanee center, Litton. who surprised kimself and his friends by outrun- ming the, Oglethorpe players after Bill Coughland, the fleet Sewanea back, had been hauled down from behind after he had broken through the entire Oglethorpe team; and d long pass from Baird to Captain Con way, who had little difficulty in go- ing across for s counter
 Rough On Bill
 The offense of the Tigers was by no means what 1t should have been. Time and again Bill Coughlan would hit the line, after the first quarter, and would be hurled back withou: gain. To the onlooker from the sidelines, it was wonder that his neck was not broken more than once, for the Oglethorpe lnemen would grab him in every conceivable post lion, and he did not seem to have any interference worthy of the name
 ln the latter part of the game, when the Tigers sent in fresh backs. the Interference on end runs was better, but even then the necessary punchsto send the ball across the line was not forthcoming. It was then that forward passing was resorted to with much frequency, and tho Ogle- thorpe lime, particularly Cooper at tackle and David at end, seemed to have little difficulty in sitting through and interfering with the

 The semi Centennial Ball Game
 President Harrison of the City league, who is heading the com mittee in charge of the semi centennial ball game at Rick wood, is mighty busy man these days. Harrison and his men are cooking up real treat for semi centennial visitors at Redwood.
 They're going to stage game of baseball just as it was played in 1871, whiskers, long panta- looms and all. The battle. looking back half century. will be be- tween the Elyton and Cahaba teams. Elyton. at that time, was big. hustling town. and Bir- mingham was jus being born. Cahaba, many years previous, had been the capital of the state, but had lost that mark of dis tinction and its population had dwindled. Still there were enough husky sons around the settlement to rig up a ball club. and they journeyed over to Ely ton for a game of ball. This game. played under the rules of 1871, will be staged at Rick wood. President Harrison has selected his team. and has been busy rehearslng 'em in the art of baseball as it was played 50 years ago.
 Following the pantomime of the old-time game regular 1921 model battle will be staged. in which some of the profession- als wintering in Birmingham and some of the city league stars will take part.
 All professional ball players who will contribute their serv- ices to this part of the semi centennial celebration are re- quested to get in touch with the writer at The Age Herald office. Zipp Newman at the News. or Gordon Hickman at the Bir- mingham Arms and Cycle com pany.
