THE GREAT DAY.
Following the entry that set the
city agog with gossip, Jesus returned
on our Monday determined to assert
His claim to authority by restoring
worship in the temple courts. 1t set
against Him new enemies, but He
stood a king in the deed. Early on
Tuesday He was present to see if the
orders that had stopped its being
made a thoroughfare as we'll as a
market had been carried out and was
met by the dignified leaders with the
question of authority which "they"
certainly had not granted. "My au-
thority is the same as Johns. What
have you to say about this? silenced
their speech. Then came the stories
of the two sons, the vineyard, and the
feast that thinly yelled a sharp at
tack. There was the swift parry of
debate in which questions of politics,
OF Immortality, of theology were dis
cussed, leaving Jesus an unquestioned
victor. From this vantage He unmer-
cifully scored the scribal pretensions
in the presence of a company that
must have carried the report to the
ends OF the empire. Taking time to
rear monument with a word to the
sacrifice of a widow who was giving
all as He was doing, He turned away
to climb the side of Olivet where the
purpling shadows enhance the beauty
of the city of His desire. 1t is into
this day also that the story told by
John of the coming of the Greeks
must be fitted perhaps, as legend
tells, offering Him asylum among the
historical hills of the land of art and
story.
Never was there another day like
that when Jesus faced those who had
offered money for His head and dared
walk in their presence, smash their
business, answer their questions and
then tell them to their face, "Woe
unto you, scribes, pharisees, hypo-
critics, We serpents, We offspring of Vi
pers, how shall We escape the judg-
ment of hell?" One must turn many
a page Of history to find other cour-
age like that. 1t made sure the death
OF the Speaker for the only possible
answer was the acceptance of His
policy or the killing of its Author.
And He had no illusion about what
the outcome Of both Self and city
would be.

Gloria bit her-lip. She wondered
if Dick thought she was any better
than May. Perhaps he was sorry
that he had married her..
Well she wouldn't let him be
sorry! She had turned over a new
leaf.
Where are we going?" she asked
as the car turned in Fortieth st.
"We're going to invite ourselves
to mothers for a meal" Dick an
swered grimly. I'm sick of res

Neither of them said another word
until they swung into the broad
driveway of the Gregory homestead.

Just sitting down to dinner, when
Dick and Gloria walked in.
"Well, isn't this a fine surprise?
Mother Gregory cried. She got up
and put her arms around Dick, while
Father Gregory beamed at them over
his horn-rimmed spectacles. Gloria
felt left out in the cold.
GLOW did you know we were going
to have strawberry shortcake for
supper" Mother Gregory asked. She
turned to Gloria and gave her the
briefest Of kisses.

Here there were fresh roses in the

The salad was crispy cold, and
