THE SHILLING OF THE STORM.
Mark 4:35-41. Read Matt. 1928
9:26; Mark 5:1-43; Luke S:22-56.
Who then is this, that even the wind
and the sea obey him?-Mark 4:41.
THE SENSE OF VICTORY
The disciples need must never be
dropped out of sight in the reading
of these great pages for they held the
front of Christ's thinking. He never
staged events or reused storms to i'm
press them but He was ever alert to
grasp each happening as an oppor-
tunity to deepen the impression He
was implanting in these lives which
were to be the Bibles of the new age.
They were facing the hostilities of
all the men to whom they had given
reverence in the old day and it is a
perfectly terrific strain upon mans
character. Every student who has
had to readjust his opinions of the
Book because science has taught some
interpretations other than those to
which he had been accustomed knows
just the situation that faced these
men. The traditional beliefs were all
in arms against Jesus. Their holders
declared His alliance with the Prince
of devils. To them He was worse
than a Samaritan and these men had
been the followers of the Pharisees
and Scribes who were deriding their
Rabbi. Jerusalem had repudiated
Him, John the Baptist was in doubt;
who were they to set their judgment
against such an imposing weight of
authority? And they were being
sent out into that atmosphere of hos
tility without Him-how in the world
could He Undue their minds with a
sense Of victory as they went? That
was one Of the problems that their
Lord was facing and bordering when
events came that He improved to
make such an impression that it could
never be effaced and which sent them
out elate with consciousness Of
mastery. And it was the matter of on
ly night and day, such was the
teaching ability of Jesus. They knew
Him to be the Master of every power
that could possibly oppose them for
had they not seen the storms on the
sea and in mems minds stilled by His
word? Had they not watched disease
stink out of His presence and death
unloose its clutch at His command?
Jesus pitted the convicted soul
against the traditional teaching and
knew it would win then as it always
does for it is a lost battle where Il
think" attacks II know"
THE MASTER OF NATURE
TasIS trusts mon hafope tbav +r11S +
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1924-10-23
THE MASTER OF NATURE

Jesus trusts men before they trust
Him. Tired out He committed Him
self to the care of these fishermen
and slept so soundly that the roar Of
wind and the dash of spray never
walked Him. 1t was their job ard He
depended upon them as He does upon
US, unafraid. The little lake is nearly
700 feet below sea level undoc q
blazing sky that warns the air con-
stantly while above it towers the
snowy crest of Hermon that sends a
blast of rushing wind thru the gorges
to replace the rising atmosphere.
This struck the boat with unusual
violence and the disciples were in
panic of fear as the waves dashed
over them and they shrieked their
way to Jesus. And their need did
what nothing else could dot reused
their slumbering Lord. All the temp
ests in the world are not as effective
as a child's cry to bring a hurrying
God to the rescue. His first task
Matthew was there and should know
was to still the terror in their
minds and their panic passed as He
arose and took command. That is
Gods order, man first and then the
circumstances. He is more interested
in ME than in my conditioning cir
cumstance, and if He should ever at
tack that first it is because it is the
quickest road to the Me" Then
standing up He spoke to the winds
and the sea and stiffness settled over
the face of the waters. Take out of
the scene what many do, the obeying
winds and waves, and you still have
to account for the impression made
upon the men. He had mastered
their panic and He spoke to the winds
at the very least He was wiser than
those experienced fishermen in judg-
ing the end Of the storm. But hav-
ing stilled them they saw what hap
pened and believed. Certainly God
who can not command the material
world will have little power over i'm
perial men. If he makes the winds
and the waves obey his will, carry his
loads, bear his messages, transport
his commerce, and submit to his
manipulation he will scarce respect
God who can not also command
them. If he does it thru the medium
of sails, batteries, and adjustments
why may not God whose child has
discarded wires have long ago have dis
covered how to do some things in
ways that are still beyond mans Wis
ion? At any rate the disciples were
convinced and it was their conviction
that Jesus sought and that has made
possible the world in which we live.
Beyond the sea as the slanting rays
of the setting sun broke thru the fly
ing scud they faced another situation
as dangerous as before. They were
getting thrills enough to last for a
life time and evidently they did, They

Buick Celebrates
 goth Anniversary

"The completeness of its line is one
 of the facts that explains Bucks out
 standns success in the automobile
 world over a period of twenty years"
 declares F. J. Abro. manager of the New Britain Buick Company. Buick builds car to meet practically every motoring need and combines, with this variety of body styles, definite qualities that are common to every Buick car, and it is my prediction that there will be q greater shortage of Buick ears this season than ever befone in the history of automobile manufacturing"
 Power. speed, comfort, dependabil- ity and durability are qualities that the owner finds in every Buick car Of whatever body type.
 Buick Fours have helped greatly iQ Bucks firm reputation. Over a period of many years they have given complete motoring satis- faction to thousands of owners. They have been used for hundreds of diff terent purposes and under all sorts of and they have always measured up to the full expectation of the motorist
 These same facts are true of Buick siXes Bucks twenty years of sue cessful aut omobiIe building has seen the constant development of the Buick Six to it's present outstanding stage. The basic principles of con struction that were adopted at the have been steadily ad- vanced through constant study and in addition. scores of fea- lures that contribute to comfort and have been built into the Buick. This completeness of detail explains the thorough satisfaction hat the Buick gives to its owner

US. REINSTATEMENT
 STOP OFF AT HAITI.
This Is Regarded at Port-au-
 Prince as a Notable Event

Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Feb. 2S.--
 The visit here of the transport Hen
 derson, bearing S4 owners and pub
 fishers of newspapers in the middle western and southwestern states was the most notable and significant since the United States intervened in 191 |. Including Frank B. Moves, president Of the Associated Press; former Sena- tor Lafayette Young of the Des Moines Capital: Edward H. o'Hara of the Syracuse Herald and Frank P. McLennan of the Topeka State Jour nal, the party in its short stay gained first hand knowledge of Haitian con- ditions.
 In addition to the usual trips to points of interest in the capital their reception by President Louis Borno at the national capital and an oppor- tunity to witness a parade by a bat tallion of the native gendarmerie that would have reflected credit upon any battalion serving under the American eolors, the majority of the party also made 115 mile trip into the interior.
 The trip to the Las Cahobas area where the civil engineers of the United States navy are throwing a 300 foot bridge across the Artibonite and completing the construction of two important roads was the outstanding feature of the program that had been made up by American High Commits sioner John H. Russell. One of the two stretches of road will provide a new and direct route across the island while the other will link up the road systems Of Haiti and Santo Domingo at Belladere, cutting down the present three day trip between the two capitals to one of day.
 AS this area, long the center of Cacoism and banditry has hitherto been so isolated from the rest of the island as to make it Haiti's most im- poyerished section, is now making re- markable strides toward prosperity, the trip was of added interest.
 The party left for Santo Domingo City en route for the naval maneu- vers at Colebra vislblv impressed with the peaceful aspect Of the island and the strides being made by the 2Aaai'i Ahah Att@As blAlAAdtss III A4lt li- ] formal reception Of the party by President Borno, which was attended l by large contingent of representa- tive Haitians, President Borno talked | with great frankness on the Haitian situation and the need for the con- tinnance of the policy of the state de- partment in its mission of rehabilita- ting the island.
