This Jesus bothered them.
He refused to admit the sanctity
of the old Sabbath law. He strobe
roughshod across their most cher.
ished convictions.
He took long walks on the Sab
bath. He gathered food and helped
sick people on the Sabbath.
Those good churchmen were as out.
ragged as are some modern churchmen
when their boys play base ball on
Sunday afternoons.
This Sabbath question had been
hotly debated by the Jews.
They had forgotten that the Sab
bath came from ancient Babylon.
where it had been a day for buying
off the wrath of angry gods.
The Jews did better with 1t. They
made it a day for remembering God,
day of rest, a day of relief for
man and beast. They made it a hu-
manitarian institution.
The Jewish Sabbath was good. 1t
protected servants from overwork,
and oxen from brutal driving.
The Sabbath became a bad institu-
aion when it simply hedged men in,
and continually cried out, No, no, no.
The Pharisees made it that. They
were SNUG and pious about IL. They
temptuous in their unsoiled virtue.
There is no connection between the
Christian Lords day and the old Sab
bath. Christians gave up the Sabbath
and adopted the. new day.
Christianity produced q new genera
ton of Pharisees who fixed the old
rules onto the new day. They wrote
blue laws into the codes of New Eng
land. They sought to impose the
spirit Of the old Pharisaism upon the
law of America.
This is not Cnristian, it is not Amer
lean.
Jesusa~said that His new spirit of
freedom rises above the old order. The
Son of Man is Lord also of the Sab
bath.
He said that holy days are for the
good of men.
The Sabbath is good. 1t is bull
wark of peace and rest.
The Lords day is also good. 1t is a
day for the creation of health. the
deepening of spiritual insight, the stir
ring of the mind. This day belongs to
man, is sacred to man, and by that
sign is always holv

they were speeding through the park.
Spot was not forgotten. 1t was with
wrench that his master resolved TO
leave him to his own devices until
daylight.
Frensham was driving. with Shell

exchange a word of greeting with
his stanch friend. But Frensham
did manage to throw over his
shoulder a somewhat remarkable
comment:
so the old man turned up trumps
after ALI Johnnie?

uttered a cry. I cannot tell you yet
how he was killed. 1t was terrible

Fletcher. 1--WE had enough of that l.

1t was nearly midnight when the
little band of watchers gathered In the
village street. Their vigil had yielded
not the tiniest scrap of information as
to the wherea bouts of the suspected
murderer. But many other things had
been determined. Connington had
brought no luggage of any description,
but the grocer, at Alistair Panton's re-
quest. had promised to reserve room
for the stranger should 1t be needed
late that evening. The missing boat,
readily identified as the property or
a local fisherman, was found beached
not far from Col. Grants house. A
boathook had gone; presumably 1t
would be picked UP when daylight rem

No one paid any real attention TO
the absence of the boatbook until Fur

He said no more at the moment. He
had just completed a long telegram to
Scotland Yard which would be dis
patched to Mallaig early next day, and
the sight of 1t caused John to redraft
the message he had already written to
Leslie. When the two emerged from
the post office John was carrying a
bag.
Where are you and the others
staying, Mr. Furneaux?" he inquired

would surely think the poor man had
gone crazy with the heat. They
should be here any minute now.
Frensham is noble fellow. We came

and not the eighteenth amendment. 1t
is probably true that a higher per cent
of alcohol in liquor may be allowed.
whether modification of the Volstead
act would be an entering wedge even
tually to bring about a repeal of the
eighteenth amendment must be serious
