Mrs. Miller was the eldest of fourteen

were dying for a drink and the did
not care anything about Midianites
anyway. One good Israelite was
worth a dozen of them. But some
stood and flung water from their
cupped hands toward their mouths,
tapping it in with ready tongue. And
when they reached the top of the hill
and the trumpet called them together
Gideon ordered all those who had
drunk standing to fall out by them
selves. There were three hundred of
them, and one can imagine Gideon's
joy as he saw his boy Jether among
them. And it was this little group
that he chose for the surprise attack
at night.
THE VICTORY.
Gods call but Gideon's planning
marks the way Jehovah always works.
He wants US but we must use our own
wits. Having settled the temper of
those with whom he would strike his
blow he would discover that of the
enemy. He tried the fleece to dis
cover if the night would be clear or
with air mist-flled, for he must have
as deep darkness as possible if his
surprise would work. Then he dar-
ingly crept to the tents that he might
feel out their mind. All things be-
ing to his liking he prepared to launch
the attack. His men were distributed,
one hundred on each flank and an
other in front of the camp, leaving
only the road home unguarded. At
the change of the watch there came
the crash of pitchers, the flare of the
torches on three different sides of
them and the terrific yell that reused
them from sleep and sent them in a
panic rushing along the valley. Death
stalked after them, crossed the river
and followed them to their far-dis-
tant camp where a second surprise
scattered them completely and left
their leaders in the hands of Gideon
to taste the penalty Of blood revenge
fer the Staying of his brothers. And
the boy Jether was along, faint, yet
pursuing" with the best of them. 1t
was great day for the boy as well
as for Israel
