were spent in that little hill town.
But more than this it was a very
beautiful place-or at least a place
from which one looked out on things
to quicken the imagination and stir
the soul.
Our lesson says that it was built
on a hill. 1t was to the brow Of this
hill that the fellow-citizens of Jesus
took Him, and from which they
would have thrown Him down to His
death, had He not miraculously es-
capped from them.
But this description gives little
idea Of what Nazareth must have
been in the mind and imagination of
Jesus.
The little town was really like an
eagles nest, in a secluded cleft a
mile and a half back from the face
of the mountain range and a hun
bred and forty feet below the sum
nit.
No highroad passed through it,
but from the top of the hill just
above it one could look over the
Mediterranean Sea, the fertile Plain
Of Esdraelon, the deep Jordan Val
ley and the hills of Gilead, while off
to the North were the SHOWS of
Hermon and Lebanon.
How the youthful Jesus must have
loved that view! And what emo
tions must have swayed Him as he
looked out over that world that He
was to conquer with the Truth!
Nazareth WIS not a no-account
town to Him. No town, no matter

came back home. He went to the
synagogue. And there, al He read
from the Book of Isaiah, He told His
fellow-townsmen Of His mission, tc
preach the gospel to the poor, to
heal the broken-hearted, to do all
that Isaiah had proclaimed.
They wondered at His gracious
words. But to them He was only
Jesus the carpenter. They resented
the fact that He should presume to
teach, and when He told them plain
truth they took Him out to kill Him.
. Was Nazareth different from other
towns? Has not every community
had people too bad for it and people
too good for it? And how often have
the real prophets in the community
been made to suffer more cruelty
than the evil-doers and ne'er-do-
wells.
Boston honors William Lloyd Gar
rison today. but once the mob
dragged him through it's streets.
How necessary it is that we should
strive to understand truth and care
fully consider it no matter who may
utter 1t. Truth is as much truth
when spoken by a carpenter as when
spoken by a clergyman.
How tolerant we should be toward
those of our Cwn town, and toward
all men, even though we may not
understand them. We can not err in
letting love rather than prejudice
rule our actions.
God give us grace to recognize and
honor our prophets

PROBE Of RAID
ONALLEGED DEN
viii QUIZ Officers About
Men Who Were Not
Slated.

Police Chief Herman RIkhoff TO-
day began an investigation of al
legged irregularities In the conduct Of
a raid at 81 S. Capitol Ave. last
Saturday. He said before he was
through two lieutenants, several pa
trolmen. patrol wagonmen and turn
keys probably would be questioned.
Rikhoff said his investigation vas
started because Of a INT that
three mel who were in the rooms
at 81 s. Capitol Ave. during the
raid were not slated. One of INese
men who is said to have possessed
liquor was freed and the liquor con-
fiscated, it is said. Another man
was allowed to leave the place. A
third escaped after the wagon

reports.

The international Uniform Sunday
school Lesson for Sept. II. Jesus Driven
from Nazareth. Luke 1850.
BY VIM. E. GILROY, D. D.
Editor-in-Chief of the Congregation
alist.
Not long after Jesus began his
ministry he went back to his own
home town, Nazareth. This lesson
tells the story of what happened to
him there.
Nazareth was a no-account place
away up in the hills about fifty miles
from Jerusalem. 1t was so unim-
portant that it had never been men
toned in the Old Testament, nor is
it mentioned by Josephus, n
great historian of the Jews, nor in
the Talmud, next to the Old Tesla
ment the most important Jewish lit
erature.
The world has never heard of
Nazareth before Jesus went there to
live. and the world would probably
never have heard of the place at
all had not Jesus made it famous.
Though He was born in Bethlehem
He is known to the world as Jesus
of Nazareth.
The little place has a fame that
it hardly deserved. for it spurne1
and rejected this very Savior who
has given it a place in history.
Yet Jesus would rejoice in its
fame, for He must have loved Naza-
reth. He was taken there when a
baby and all his boyhood and youth

Now these appointments We're

When the committee met I stated
exactly what the President had done

You report against the confirma-

General Assembly Takes Def

talism at ConcIaVe


SAN ANTONIO, Tex, May co.
The sixty-fourth General Assembly
of the Presbyterian Church of the
United States was on record today
az reaffirming the church'g funda.
mental faith in the heated clash be.
tween modernism and fundamental.
ism.
Floor generalship of the ReVerand
J.. 8. Lyons, of Atlanta, finally led
the supporters Of fundamentalism to
victory.
When the committee on bills and
overtures proposed that the Assem-.
bly, declare itself on ten funda.
mental principles taken from the
confession Of faith, the Reverani
Lyons opposed the action on the
ground that 1t would plunge the
church "into the swirl of contro.
versy." He submitted a substitute,
expressing the assembly's stand ON
the sitution. It was adopted.
The Reverend Lyons substitute
declaration follows:
"That because of the clarity ana
fullness of the presentation o.
Christian truth in our confession
Of faith and catechisms, and in
the absence Of any disposition to
question the fundamental truths as
set forth in these symbols of our
faith, the general assembly simply
reaffirms It3 faith in the great
fundamentals of our church SEE
forth in our confession Of faith
and catechisms, and declines to
make additional declarations Of doc
trine,"
Many of the delegates opposed
the Reverend Lyons declaration
on the ground that 'it failed to tell
the world where the church stood"

day. John Lee, night Waterman.
employed for more than forty
years. was missing after the fire.
The fire, Of undetermined origin,
broke out shortly before o'clock.
It gained rapid Roadway and drove
three other members Of the crew
from the vessel. Missing Lee, they
attempted to reach the galley, where
he was believed to be asleep, but
were driven back by a solid sheet of
flame. ~
A strong wind increased the fury
OF the flames, and while fire tugs
and all downtown fire apparatus
joined in an effort to save the YES
sci. they were unable to make any
Roadway.
For a time the flames threatened
to spread to the See and Bee, the
largest passenger vessel on the
Great Lakes, which was tied up at
an adjoining pier.
The State Of Ohio was built forty
years ago. In recent years 1t has
been used exclusively in excursion
traffic between Cleveland, Cedar
