THE BOY WHO KNEW.
Trust city boy to know folks. His
pal in the country can play rings
s1roun him when it comes to direc-
tions, animals, birds and iniative, but
he has not had the opportunity to get
acquainted with people in the same
fashion as the one who has known
nothing else but the crowds. John
Mark, in the house of Mary, with its
hospitable doors thru which passed so
many of the worthwhile folks of the
time, learned at first hands to know
Peter and John, Barnabas and Silas,
James and Philip, and that other in
comparable one, Jesus Himself. For
there is no question that He was Of
ten in the home and it is quite posi-
BILE that it sheltered the Upper Room
What all that meant to the growing
boy only boy lover can tell, but the
vividness of that Gospel story pro-
claims the boys attentness upon what
was happening before him. 1t was his
JOY to rdn errands for these men and
to dream of larger things sharing in
the life of the world that was waking
under the resurrection impulses. On
that night when Judas was seeking
for the Masters betrayal, it seems

use only to find the Man of their de-
Hire gone. The boy had thrown himself

threatened. But too late, he was

would never catch boy in the dark
and upon familiar territory, but. that
he had shared in those great days
could not be allowed to go by alto
tgether in silence, so there was slipped
in the mere line of its happening that
might identify the author. Then the
movement grew and the church faced

Then the city boy was finding the con-
ditiOns anything but hOmelike as they
tramped over unknown passes and I'M
tried trials. Home looked never so fair
as now and there was a homesick feel
ing as they followed the ailing but de-
ermined Saul ever farther from that
home and with no present prospect
of return. Moreover he was leading
into Gentle territory and was offer
given the Jew. 1t was intolerable and
the hardship of relative, of city boy
and of Hebrew Christian was too
strong combination to resist and he
turned back toward home. He does
not seem to have stopped ct Antioch
at all but reached Jerusalem as swift
ly as the journey could be made. He
had forgotten his dream.
THE RECOVERED DREAM.
Barnabas and Paul reached the cap
ital and received the blessings of the
church upon their endeavors among
the Gentiles, and when they turned
back to Antioch Mark was along. But
he got no farther, for Paul refused to
consider him anything but a gutter
and in spite of all that Barnabas could
do to patch up the affair, Paul was ad-
amant. Mark should not go along.
Barnabas suffered as did the aspirant
There seemed no glove upon the iron
hand and there mustS have been some
stormy days which both Paul and
for missionary opportunity. Failure
too often closes the door, for men do
not forget as easily as we would like
them to do many times. yellow" is
brand hard to alter and Mark could
not. Blessed is he who in an hour
like that has a believer in him. When
Peter fell the later story finds him in
the company Of John to whom the
erring apostle owed much more than
the record states. Barnabas refused
to doubt the quality of Mark and took
him to that island territory which they
evangelical unnoticed by the church
Then came a call from Peter for a he'll
per. He, too, had quit cold and I'M
derstood how Mark felt and pretty
certainly was eager to help up as he
had been himself. And there was so
much in common in the two that Mark
rejoiced over the chance to give serv-
ice to this life that was calling him.
And Peter did need him for his bet
ter training than that of the sturdy
fisherman would aid greatly in the
work What came out of it appears
in the wonderful Gospel that Mark
penned from Peters stories, but col
ored it always with his own heart. He
who rejoiced to minister to the need
of others as he was continually doing
panied the ministrant Christ as no
other person could possibly have done
it. My job, whatever it is, helps to
make possible q Christ such as no
other may bring to the world Of men.
Only Mark did it while we often fail
in even attempting to present Him to
others. And Paul, old and needy, re-
membered the care of Marks service
and asked for his return to his own
side. 1t is fine that Mark responded.
He loved even the hand that had hurt
him in the old day and wrote in deed
as well as pen the matchless story Of
the serving Christ.

THE MAN WHO FORGOT.

1t was a wonderful day in thatJeru-
salem home when Barnabas the below
ed told them he was going to Anti
och. Sister CD, why can't Mark go
with me-" said Barnabas as they
talked about the journey. To Anti
och! And with his uncle! Mark was
in fever of anxiety, but with little
delay they were on their journey.
And coming into new city he found
a new life opening and constant SER
vice possible. Then came the call to
Barnabas and Saul to go into unknown
fields with the message of their King
and the church gladly gave her best
that others might live. Mark gave
as eager an offering of himself as the
best and in that high hour believed
he had caught vision that coud not
fade. But there are other hours than
the one of glory. VIII the purpose
wear? The grind of things tests as
nothing else can and many a youth
who looked on the vision splendid has
seen it fade into the light of common
day. And there is no tragedy quite
so bad as that. With souls elate the
little company set out from Antioch
and crossed to Cyprus. Barnabas was
guiding and there was no question
about the helpfulness of this young
ster who cared for baggage and was
content with whatever mental task
might be required. His dedication had
been to anything and there was only
joy in being a mere attendant to these
two men. But presently Barnabas
was no longer in the lead and direct
ing the course they were taking, and
Saul was not as easy master as was
the more sauve and gentle Barnabas.
What business had he to take things
out Of his uncle's hands when the
church had sent him out as the first?
