Courage.

Fear God, and take your own part.
There's Bible in that, young man; see
how Moses feared God, and how he
took his own part against everybody
who meddled with him. And see how
David feared God, and took his own
part. So fear God, young
man, and never give in! The world
can bully, and is fond, provided it sees
a man in a kind Of difficulty, of get
ting about him, calling him coarse
names, and even going so far as to
hustle him; but the world, like all
bullies, carries white feather in it's
tail, and no sooner sees the man tax
ing off his coat, and offering to fight
its best, than it scatters here and
there, and is always civil to him af.

"a - means of strengthening the

official Navy department critique, pre-
pared as a result of a study of last
springs maneuvers in Panama bay.
"In drawing up their estimates"
says the critique, both commanders
considered the possibility of blocking
the canal by an attack in force on the
Pacific side defenses and locks"
This situation, coupled with other
facts developed during the maneuvers,
led the naval experts to reach rather
definite decisions as to the future
needs of national defense in that quar-
ter. The official critique concludes as
follows:
"Some of the benefits to be gained

PRIMARY TOPIC-Luke's Story of

JUNIOR TOPIC-Luke, PauIs Friend.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
1C-How Luke Helped Paul.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC
-Luke's Contribution to Christianity.
I. Luke the Historian (Luke 1 rs; |;
-cf. Acts L ~.
Luke was a writer of great distinc-
ton. His style Is clear and pic
furesque. The pieces of writing left
us are the Gospel Of Luke and the
Acts. According to Acts i, the gos-
pei was written to set down in order
the things which Jesus began to do
and to teach, and Acts ! g to, show
what the risen and ascended Lord
was continuing to do and to teach.
While here on earth He only began to
do and to show certain things, but
from His place Of glorious exaltation,
He is continuing His mighty work by
the Holy Spirit through the disciples.
Concerning the contents Of the gos-
pei, he asserts first, that the source
of his information was recorded state
mentS Of eye witnesses He assures
us that these statements have been
verified by him. Second, that he had
made a systematic statement. Of these
facts in order to strengthen the faith
of his friend, Theophilus.
III. Luke the Beloved Physician
(Col. 4 4:14).
He evidently was skilled physician
as his descriptions of the diseases
which Jesus cured shows. His de-
scription of the symptoms Of the dis
eases shows his capability. 1t was left
to the physician to portray with vivid
.exactness the virgin birth by means
of which the Eternal Son became In
carnate. He was not only skillful but
tenderly sympathetic. This sympathy
is shown in his portrayal of the
Great Physician in His compassion for
the poor, helpless and suffering peo-
pie. What untold good skillful and
sympathetic Christian physician can
do! No one gets so closely into touch
with human life as a doctor.
III. Luke the Companion of Paul
(Acts 16 6:9-15).
l. Paul's Need of Physician. There
is clear evidence that Paul had some
physical ailment which made the serv-
ice of a skillful physician most desir-
able. When the call came to go to
Europe with the gospel, Luke joined
Paul and became one Of his most help
full companions. This is one example
of what a faithful Christian physician
can do.
2. Luke's Fidelity. "Only Luke is
with me-" He was no mere far
away friend He stood by Paul in
storm and calm. Paul was now in the
cold Jail awaiting execution. What a
great comfort it must have been to
know that this faithful physician was
with him. He was with him at Philip
pi, Miletus, Jerusalem, Caesarea, be
fore Felix and Festus, on the voyage
TO hOme, WlIn MIN III lne ROMAN JAIL
through the Roman trial, and perhaps
a spectator of his execution. 1t cost
Luke a great deal to do this, but he
no doubt considered it a labor of love,
even feeling the call of God as really
as Paul. Nothing is known of Luke
after Pauls death. Tradition has some
interesting things to say, but no word
of certainty.

BY w. III. ATKINS,



The Department of Justice to-
day prepared to force q fight in
the Supreme Court to sustain the
integrity Of the Sherman anti
trust law, so far as interstate
transportation is concerned.
To Test Power Of /. G. G.
Action by the circuit court OF
appeals at st. Paul permitting the
Southern Pacific to retain control
OF the Central Pacific by virtue Of
an Interstate Commerce Commits
sion order has the effect of bring
ing back to the highest court for
review vital questions involved In
that merger. More important, Of
ficials held, Is the question Of q
determination whether the will Of
Congress was to give to an ad-
ministrative commission a power
which actually supersedes the
judicial branch Of the Government
in railroad matters.
The next step by the Govern
ment's judicial branch is expected

ment and the railroads will be
called upon to argue the form 'of
the decree, under the circuit courts
decision.
Officials of the Department Of
Justice declared today that the
present case Is by far the most
important ever submitted to court
for decision, as the Sherman law
is practically nullified SO far as
affects future attacks by the judi
ciaI department on alleged railroad
monopolies in restraint OF trade.

The Attorney General and his
advisers are said to hold the view
that If the st, Paul courts decision
should stand 1t will have the effect
of weakening the Government drive
to curb monopolies generally in in

General maintains that Congress did
not intend to transfer to an ad.
ministrative tribunal, such as the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
the absolute power to determine
what constitutes permissible mo-
nopoly or restraint of trade in in
terstate transportation.
The Justice Department broadly
takes the view that the rule of

Sherman law is rigidly fixed in the
national system governing the car
riers and that 1t was not the in
tent of Congress to allow the Inter
state Commerce Commission to
virtually nullify a mandate Of the
highest court:
Officials of the Justice Department
said today that the question at issue
Is one of the preserving the under

WEAK BESIDE
NATURAL
TeIsa States He Produced
Better Lightning Twenty
Years Ago.

By ELSIE MCCORMICK
COsmotOIltan News Service.

NEW. YORK, June 13.-Those
who, after reading of the recent
experiments at the Pittsfield plant
Of the General Electric Company,
have visions today Of letting loose
private lightning bolts on the heads
agents, must prepare themselves for
disappointment. This at least is the
position OF Nikola Tesla, inventor
Of seventy electrical devices, who
stated today that the man-made
lightning produced at the General
Electric plant did not equal q ten
thousandth part Of the energy Of
the real article.
When the average man hears OF
a man-made thunderstorm he Is
naturally dumfounded," Tesla said.
What he doesn't realize Is that
the village, struck by the arti-
fetal bolt was only a tiny model,
that such experiments are not at
all new and that there Is no pros
pect of their being of any particu-
lar utility. I understand that cleo
trical discharges were obtained fif-
teen feet long under a pressure OF
1000, 900 volts. Twenty-three years
ago produced electric discharges
Of 100000 volts and over "a hun
dred feet long. In fact, in looking
over the records, / find that in a
few cases the length was 1928 feet.
1t could easily have been three
times greater were it not for GER
tain limitations of the apparatus.
II might also point out that
electrical effects such as those here
considered grow in intensity with
the square of the pressure. Thus
the discharges / produced were
eight-one times stronger than those
described. / communicated the re.
suits to the scientific world at the
time and they were widely COM
mented on.
az am particularly astonished to
note that the experts in this case
show not even the faintest concep-
ton Of the mechanics of lightning
discharge.
mo matter how powerful the
effects artificially produced, they
are entirely different from natural
lightning. It is because these ex-
perts are unaware Of the facts that
they are assuming the tension OF
lightning to be 100000 volts.
During my long observation Of
natural displays. l discovered way
Of measuring electric force and de-
termining the power OF lightning.
The fact is that the pressure Is a
hundred times and the energy ten
thousand times greater than these
engineers assume"
