Shrine Visitors Make Mark
As Law-Abiding Americans

Probably the greatest compliment
that could be paid the 100000 mem
bers of the Ancient Arabic Order
Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine, who have
been guests OF the National Capital
the past week, and one that the or
der of Masonry. with which the Shrine
is connected. would appreciate most,
Is that the police records of the city
show that there was not a single
arrest of a Shriner for any cause dur
ing the visitation, evidencing in the
most emphatic manner that the
Shriner is a respector of law and
order and vested authority and a
strict observer and upholder of the
laws of his country. The statement
does not seem possible, but the rec
ords of the police department bear
IL out absolutely. The visitors held
time of their lives and there was no
hint or suggestion that any one OF
the Mobiles abused in any way the
freedom granted them by the District
of Columbia Commissioners.

Golden TEXT "There is joy in the
presence of the angels OF God over
one sinner that reDenteth"-Luke
Is: 10.
The Pharisees and the Scribes
made a charge againts Jesus, which,
although it was intended by them
as a crime. was the greatest compll-
ment ever paid Him. What they in
tended for His shame has become
his greatest glory. All the publlcanS
and sinners were drawn to Him to
hear Him. They did not come by
special invitation nor by force; but
were drawn by the compulsion OF
His wonderful grace and love. They
recognized their gerat need, ana
they recognized in Him one VINO
could and would supply that need.
He was a great magnet, and drew
to Him every one who had been re-
PEELED by the religionists of that day.
The religiOnists, the leaders IN the
church in that day, had certain
standards. To their credit be II
said that they lived up to those
standards very well; but they had
no heart for any who did not live
up to their standards-such were
Outcasts, and were unworthy OF any
consideration at all. Therefore,
when Jesus gladly received these
publicans and sinners, and went so
far as to eat with them. the Pharl-
sees and Scribes regarded it as noth-
ing short of criminal. In their eyes
it was practically an admission that
He was one of them.
The Three Fold Parable
This charge drew forth from Jesus
the three-fold parable of the lost
sheep, the lost coin, lost boy; per
haps the most exquisite in every re
spect of all the wonderful picture
stories of Jesus. AS usual, it com
pIetely silenced His accusers; they
had no reply to make. 1t was one
of the few times that Jesus defended
Himself against the attacks OF HIS
enemies. Even this. however, was
not so much a defense of Himself
after all as a defense of those who
had been regarded - utterly worth
less by the religious leaders of the
day. 1t was a defense of the de-
fenseless.
The story is so familiar that we
must not go into details. Better
read it again for yourself just as
Jesus wrote it. However, let us
notice some things about It espe-
cjally.
Note the increasing values - the
sheep, the coin, the boy One of a
hundred, one of ten, one of two.
Note that the shepherd cared less
for the ninety and nine, but more for
the one who needed Him more; not
that the woman cared less for the
nine pieces that she had safely, but
very much for the one that was
needed to complete the necklace.
Not that the father cared less for
the older boy to whom he had given
double portion but very greatly
for the one who was away from him.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
For Jan. H. Luke IS
BY DIR. MARION MCH. HULL

The one sheep that was lost had
strayed away, by eating on the edge,
and before anyone knew it this one
was separated from the others and
from the shepherds care and was
at the mercy of the wild beasts, its
natural enemies. It's place could be
quickly filled by the purchase of an
other sheep; but that didn't keep
the shepherd from risking his life
to bring this one back because 1t
needed him. No wonder then he
sought for it until he found it. No
wonder that he called in the neigh
bors to rejoice with him. The one
coin had rolled into some dark cor
ner through carelessness. The ten
coins were the frontlet Worn by the
women always. 1t was the bridal
gift from her husband. The string
had broken and by her carelessness,
the coin had gotten loose and had
rolled away somewhere. To be with
out the frOntlet would be an evil
dence of her carelessnesS, and might
be taken as a blot on her character
as a wife. No wonder then that she
lighted a lamp and swept every cor
ner of the house until she found it.
No wonder that she called in her
women friends to rejoice with her
over her find.
The Boy Lost
With the boy it was somewhat diff
ferent. He didn't just stray away
like the sheep by browsing on the
edge of the pasture, nor was it care
lessness on anyb0dy's part. He de-
Iberately chose to go away from
his fathers house, He showed a
proud and defiant spirit, which made
him out of place in his fathers
house. He demanded imperiously
his inheritance. Now that was not
due him until his fathers death; he
had no claim on it as long as his
father lived; so his demand was as
good as saying to his old father-I
wish that you were dead; L want
what you have; | would rather have
your money than you, anyway.
The father did not resent it, but
let the boy have his own way.
Under the law the elder son got d
double portion; in this case, two
thirds, the younger one-third of the
fathers holdings. Be it said to the
credit of the elder that he left his
inheritance with the father and
went on working on the farm as
he had always done. AS far as that
was concerned he was a model son.
The younger boy, however, left
home. and went into a far country.
Well, down grade is a fast pace.
especially when there are no brakes;
and the end was soon reached. The
picture that Jesus draws of his
condition is most graphic. In a few
words He tells the whole story of
a wild and sinful life with its in
evitable finale. Money gone; friends
gone; nothing but bitter memories
and hunger left.
His physical need, was the thing
that made him appreciate his great

The Elder Son

was free and full and his joy was
immeasurable.
The Elder Son
The elder son came in from the
field and had the gouts when he
learned what had been done. And
he would. not go in" The father
had to have the feast and come
out and beg him to come in. You
see the trouble with the elder broth
er was that he had no heart. He
was q conscientious son and had
stood by the old man; but he neither
appreciated the blessing of being
with his father and sharing with
him all that he had nor the posi-
bility of his younger brother chang
ing. He saw only his brothers sin
and had no eyes for his repentance.
Until he appreciated this he was
no companion for either his brother
or his father. I hope he saw it
and went in, but the story doesn't
tell us, for you see it was this part
of the picture that Jesus had re-
served for those critical pharisees
and scribes. The other was the
background. Of course they would
agree to the shepherds hunting for
the sheep and rejoicing; they had

| er need He came to himself first;
then he came to his father. The
II twill' was the turning point in
his life He would have died in his
need if he had not said that and
acted on it.
There is a very important point
right here to be noticed. The shep
herd sought for the lost sheep until
he found it and brought it back
home on his shoulders; the WON'T
an did not stop looking for the
lost coin until she found it-but
| the fathersdid not look for the boy
He might have gone after him and
found him in his dire need and
! brought him home. He might have
had a trusted servant go after him
and bring him back; or shadow
him to see if he was getting into
trouble and warn him not to do it,;
or urge, him to come home before
he got into trouble. He didn't adopt
that course because such finding
wouldn't have been finding at all.
The boy had deliberately and de-
family chosen his course and turn
! ed his back on his home. If he had
forcibly brought him back mis-
! heart would have still been away
All the father could do was to
wait patiently and longingly until
the boys heart was changed.
Note the boys resolve. Realizing
his physical need he came to him
self, and said, II will arise and go
to my father" Best of all, he put
his resolution into effect, and went.
1t was in his heart to confess his
| sin, to say he was not worthy to
/ be called his son, and to ask that
he might be one of the hired serV-
ants. Do you see what a change
had come over him? When he de-
manded his inheritance he cared
more for his fathers money than
for his fathers presence. Now
! things have changed entirely. He
yearns for his fathers presence, he
is willing to be a servant for the
! opportunity it presents of only oc-
casiOnal interviews. He had forgot
ten about his hunger; he is think
ing only Of his heart hunger, which
can be satisfied with nothing less
! than his fathers company. There's
never a word about any more mon
ey even if he had dared to hope
that there might possibly be any
more coming to him.
The Rejoicing Father
Well, how would the father re-
ceive4 him? The boy didn't even
seem to think that there might be
any possibility that the old man
would turn a cold shoulder to him.
