Many times We have taken il for
granted that Jesus was with us when
We have deserted our Lord. Mary had

Him. The sorroWing mother found
Him in the temple at the end of the
third days search.
When in their sorrow they sought
to reprove Jesus, the Master replied
with an answer that IS the key To
His life. They had moderated, as
most people do, the capacity of their
question. "Wist We not that I must be
about my Fathers business" that He
had been so absorbed in His mission
that He had been fnrgetful Of every
thing else. Jesus had come to realize
that God was His Father. He had
heard His call and had answered in
the Affirmative that He would give
Himself up exclusively to do His
Fathers viii and work in the world.
Returning to Nazareth Jesus be-
came subject unto Joseph and Mary.
The next eighteen years have been
called the hidden years of the Mas
ter's life. Much of this time was
probably spent in company with .Io-
Seph in the carpenters shop. where
Jesus learned his trade as a Carpen-
ter. This is the last reference in the
fulfilled the fathers part. and in the
eyes of the law was considered the
father, although tn" Scriptures states
that he was not. lie was more than
Il carpenter. He probably was an
architect and builder, whose work
took him frequently away from the
home. so that Jesus learned while he
was mastering his trade, which every
Jewish lad was required TO learn. the
care Of the home that fell to Him
when Joseph died. a
During those hidden years Jesus
grew in a fourfold way. He devel-
oped physically, mentally, spiritually
and socially. Probably Jesus may
have become a master of the Scrip
lures during this period by copying
il from the parchments. During His
ministry He quoted from twenty
His prayer life, marked by spending
whole nights in communion with the
Father, was formed during these Si-
lent years of His dwelling at Naza
reth. The Carpenter of Nazareth,
working obscurely at His trade, used
every opportunity to fit Himself by
study of the Word. meditation and
prayer to be prepared for the hour
when His Father would call Him to
enter His business. He spent thirty
years in getting ready for His three
and one-half years of public service.
American boys might well learn the
value of being subject To their par
ents and taking time through silent
fellowship and service with our
heavenly Father to fit themselves for
His business. Christ is calling for Us
all to join Him in extending the
greatest business in the world. He
calls US to help Him save the world.

Bank Earning Assets Fall.
In connection with the credit situa-

assets of the twelve federal reserve
banks was lower at the beginning of
this month than at any time for six
years. They were approximately
S225,000,060 below the figure of the
same date last year. The declines in
earning assets have been general in
all banks, but have been particularly
large in the New York bank.
Practically all important industries
showed decreased employment in the
last two months as compared with a
year ago. The largest reductions in
payrolls were reported in the auto
mobile. iron and steel, and women's
clothing business.
The reduced earnings of factory and
other industrial workers were re-
fected in smaller department store
sales. Mail order houses also showed
movements from their shelves
during May and early June.
The board called attention to re-
duced earnings by industrial workers,
