over to PLATE the Governor.
The Remorse of Judas
Then when Judas, who had be-
trayed Him, saw that He was con-
demned, smitten with remorse he
brought back the thirty shekels to
the High Priests and Elders and said,
Il have sinned, in betraying to
death one who is innocent
What does that matter to us2"
| they replied; sit is your business"
Flingtng the shekels into the Sane
tuary he left the place, and went and
| hanged himself. When the High
Priests had gathered up the money
| they said,
1T is illegal to put It into the
Treasury. because it is the price of
blood"
So after consulting together they
spent the money in the purchase of
the Potter's Field as a burial place for
people not belonging to the city; for
(which reason that piece of ground
4, received the name, which ii still bears,
! Of the Field of Blood

| en- by the Prophet jeremiah, And
I took the thirty shekels, the price OF
the priced one on whom Israelites

Plate questions Jesus
Meanwhile Jesus was brought be-
fore the Governor, and the latter put
the question,
Are you the King of the Jews?"
81 am their King" He answered.
When however the High Priests and
the Elders kept bringing their charges
against Him, He said not a word in
reply.
DO you Tot hear" asked PLATE,
what a mass of evideQce they are
bringing against you?"
I But He made no reply to a single
accusation, SO that the Governor was
greatly aStoniShed.
Jesus sentenced to Death
Now it was the Governors custom
at the Festival to release some one
prisoner, whCmsoever the populace
desired; and at this time they~had a
notorious prisoner called Barabbas So
when they were now assembled PLATE
appealed to them.
Whom shall release to you," he
said, "Barabbas, or Jesus the So
called Christi"
For he knew that It was from en-
vious hatred that Jesus had been
brought before him. While he was
sitting on the tribunal a message came
to him from his wife.
Have nothing to do with that
the night I have suffered terribly in
dream through him.
The High Priests, however, and the
Elders urged the crowd to ask for
Barabbas and to demand the death of
Jesus So when the Governor a sec
ond time asked them, which Of the
two shall I release to f"-they
cried.
"Barabbas!"
What then" said PLATE, shall I
do With Jesus, the so-called Christi"
With one voice they shouted,
Let him be crucified"
why. what crime has he com
mitted ?" asked Plate.
But they kept on furiously shouting11
Let him be crucified!"
So when he saw that he could gain
nothing, but that on the contrary
there was q riot threatening, he called
for water and washed his hands in
sight Of them all, saying,
It am not responsible for this muir
der: you must answer for it."
His blood" replied all the people,
| 'sbe on US and on our chiIdrent'
Then he released Barabbas to them,
hut Jesus he ordered to be scourged,
and gave Him up to be crucified- -

There will he more nat onal parks. The policy
OF the national park service, MS set forth In 1918
by the late Franklin H.. Lane, then secretary of the
Interior, is that the national parks OF the future
should be justified by scenery of supreme and dis
Hnctfve qualify or some natural feature so ex-
traordinary or unique as to he of national interest
and Importance. The national park system as now
constituted. should not he lowered in standard,
dignity and prestige by the inclusion of areas
which express Va less than the highest terms the
particular class or kind Of exhibit which they rep
resent"
The national park movement is now nation
wide. There is an army of enthusiasts. These
enthusiasts are preaching that the mission of the
national parks is manifold that general use Of
them by The people will bring physical. mental.
moral and financial benefits.
This nntionai-park ranscontinenta tourist traf

tremendous possibilities In dollars. The Scenic
West was literally full of motorists this summer
on vacation trips ranging from two weeks to the
whole season. All sorts of estimates have been
made of whnt this means financially TO the country
to have this money spent ut home instead OF in
sightseeing abroad. 1t is purely guesswork to estl.
mate what the million and more visitors to the
national parks this summer paid out In money. An
arbitrary minimum estimate Of 500 each gives a
total of $1OO.OOO.OOO.

merely to provide for the protection. maintenance

people to determine the use they shnli make of
them. The association is an organization of the

Is largely emotional. Among Its many other &c.
