CHICAGO, Jan. 4.-LegiSlatiOn was an
important factor in the wheat market today.

mittee had made a favorable report on the
N0rbeck-Nels0n bill providing for a fund
of $3.50, 600 600 for the purpose of discount

on the dip based on an article a newspaper
printed that wheat was not advancing i'll
proportion with other commodities. The
market responded readily TO this buying api
the pit disclosed a tight situation, reflect
ins heavy absorption of offerings on the
dip yesterday. One cheering bit of news
from abroad was a cable from Berlin tell
ing of the increase in production of potash
to % per cent over pre-war levels and this
has given them necessary credit with which
to purchase American grain. Receipts are
still heavy in volume and stocks are piling
up fast. Milling demand for wheat is
slightly BETTER but the foreign demand is
light. 4 statement by Louis G. Michael
economist for the department of agricu
ture. to the effect that Russia would not
be active in the worlds wheat market for
another generation caused some buying
early.

Corn was strong early, the government
report on hogs showing nearly 10 per cent

and eternal death. If punishment
is only age-long, their life is only
age-long, too. And, besides, all the
other references in Scripture deny
it's being terminable. See Matt. 1882,
Mark 1929; Jno. 1886; Matt. 2510, y;
etc.
In the passage before us, Dives is
told that there is an impossible gulf
fixed. What teaching could be plain
er? What Dives had done in life had
fixed his character; he had made the
choice and it was irrevocable. There
is nothing in Scripture to give any
hint that there will ever be any
change after death, or any chance.

to prove just the contrary.
One of the most serious passages
is in Rev. 22:11. "Ee that is right
eous, let him be righteous yet more
and more; he that is filthy. let him
become filthy yet more and more"
Death marks the parting of the
ways; the righteous man grows in
righteousness; the wicked, left to
himself, without the restraining
love and grace of God which he
has persistently refused, becomes
more and more wicked.
Therefore, choose ye this day
whom we will serve. Behold, now
is the accepted time; now is the day
of salvation.

they be not highminded, nor have
their hope set on the uncertainty OF
riches; but OH God, who giveth us
richly all things to enjoy"
1 Tim. 6:17
You remember the criticism that
the Pharisees and scribes made of
Jesus. This man receiveth sinners
and eateth with them" You recall
His defense of these defenseless
ones in the three-fold parable and
His revealing of the real spirit Of
the critics in the picture of the
elder brother. Well, turning to His
disciples He told them of an unjust
steward who had been caught and
dismissed, and how he made the
best out of a bad situation, using
his present opportunities to provide
against future distress. His MASTER
mot jesus commended him for his
foresight, for the children of the
present age are more. prudent and
show more foresight in this age than
the children of light show in their
age. Then Jesus added: Make
friends by means Of the mammon
of unrighteousness You cannot
serve God and mammon; for you
cannot serve two masters.
Now this is just what the Phari-
sees were trying to do. They were
lovers of money. They were great
sticklers for the law; but they were
also great lovers of money. The law
promised prosperity. If they kept
the law they would prosper, and
they were keeping the law in order
that they might prosper. In their
minds prosperity was Synonymous
with pety and piety might ever be
coincident. Therefore they justified
themselves in getting rich. Their
wealth was an evidence of their
goodness, they thought, and there
fore they laughed at Jesus. Jesus
replied to them: God justifies, not
man. Nor need you to think that
the law, is TO be put away. Not enc
crossing of it VIII fail.
AS an illustration of the ineffi-
cheney of their Interpretation of the
law, Jesus told them of the rich
man and Lazarus. 1t is no. a para
BILE. There is not anything to indi.
cate that if was; in fact much to
prove that il was not. In no para
