WEEKLY SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON

phasized almost every day the value
to a man of good forbears.
The lineage of Moses. both on his
fathers side and on his mothers,
was in the house of Levi. This i'm
piled a c~onsecrated relationship.
Probably there were indifferent and
careless people in the house Of Levi
despite the special privilege and
holiness of that house.
But the mother of Moses was a
good and resourceful woman not
easily baffled even by the DEGREES
Of a Pharaoh. Mother-loye did not
destroy in her the capacity for
action. she was willing to sacrifice
her babe that she might save him.
trusting to Providence after she had
done her best.
Hence she took her S-months-old
baby and placed him in an ark
Of bulrushes in the hope that his life
might be spared. When we do our
pest and trust to Providence things
usually turn out for the best. The
placing of the little babe in the ark
and sending him adrift was the first
heroic ace in n record OF heroic
destiny.
The child found a foster parent
and a place in the highest home in
the land. Here he found the learn
ing and training that were to stand
him in good stead in days TO come.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1926-07-10

But neither training nor environ
ment could destroy in him the things
that his mother had loved and
prayed into his very being, and the
passionate devotion of God and to
his people. that was the heritage Of
a Cody lineage.
The golden text, Train up a child
in the way ne shall 60 and when he
is old he will not depart from IT,"
has far more truth than people often
realize. There are exceptions that
nullify the rule, for the children of
good people are not always good.
Good people. however. do not al
ways show courage and common
sense in, the training of their chill
dren. Sometimes they allow the evil
environment to nullify all the bene-
fits Of heredity. In the broad
revelation of life it will. be found
that the writer in Proverbs was
substantially correct.
AT any rate, we see quite clearly
that the courage, determination, and
willingness to sacrifice himself that
were the deepest characteristics In
Moses. were a very direct heritage
from the mother who bore and
nurtured him. 1t is a lesson that
tells us as much concerning the
privilege and glory of mother as con.
corning the greatness Of dis;
tinguished sons.

KEEP AUTO FIT
IS WARNING OF
MOTORING BODY
A. A.. A. Gives Suggestions
for Emergency Kit for
Tourists.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. July TO-
With every indication that motor
touring, and particularly long dis
lance touring, will exceed all
previous records in volume this
year. the American Automobile AS
ISOLATION today sounded a note OF
warming about the importance OF
keeping the car At while en- tour.
The time to take precautions is be
fore the tour starts. the A. A. A.
warns. pointing out that otherwise
the motorist is liable to let himself
in for hurried repairs and incidental
delays, which are liable to mar the
tour.
The warning stresses the necessity
for three preparatory precautions
a thorough cleaning of the water
circulation system, the assurance
that the brakes are in perfect order,
and the marshalling Of good rubber,
But these were only the high spots,
the A. A. A. listing half a score of
other suggestions, these being based
on the experience Of the thousands
Of emergency road service stations
maintained by the national motoring
body and its affiliated clubs.
The tires should be either new or
in first class condition. all cuts and
abrasions having been filed with
cement, and a reliable gauge TO keep
the pressure at a proper level should
be tucked into a side pocket. A daily
fve-minute inspection will prove a
mighty influence against tire
trouble, the A. A. A. statement de-
clared. 1t continues:
"a thorough inspection and over
hauling of the car. with the motor
list standing over the mechanic, will
pay handsomely In freedom from
vexatious delays and breakdowns.
Upon the fabrication will depend
at least so per cent Of the cars
service. Either determine definitely
that the oils particularly suited to
your car may be obtained en- route,
or take enough with you TO last un-
til you return. The same applies
somewhat to gasoline. Always in
sist on a reliable. dependable brand.
To insure continued efficient opera
ton, go over the grease cups and
other points Of fabrication before
starting each days trip.
THE wise tourist carries at least
two new spare tires complete with
at least two spare tubes in water
proof and dustproof bags"

complete set OF chains to prevent

This lesson is otherwise entitled
"The Blessing of a Religious Home"
II gives us an insight into the par
entage of Moses and into the heredity
that lay back of the great liberator.
In recent years the tendency in
scientific circles has been toward
placing the supreme emphasis upon
heredity rather than environment in
the determination of character.
To take the view hat heredity is
the only factor would seem to imply
a hopeless attitude toward life and
a multiplying of much Christian
teaching, which has been that
through the power Of Christ men
may find redemption eve though
they have had an evil heredity and
are in an unfavorable environment.

It might, however, be questioned
whether any man is without ele-
ments of a good heredity for the
strains that enter into the individual
are manifold. and in the number and
wide variety Of ancestors. which are
a few generations back of every life,
surely there viii be found many
strains of good as wei as of evil.

LITTLE GROWN-UPS
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON :

A 12yearold girl Of New York City is ready for
college. Poor little thing! Hers is a hard fate.
Fer the infant prodigy nearly alwaysy occupies an
obscure grave. Most Of those we hear about develop
into ordinary citizens, and whatever their talents, few
of them make a mark in the world.
In spite of this fact, however, the rapid way in
which we hurry our children through school is one
of the tragedies of the age. We will start Johnny to
kindergarten before he is out of bibs. and we are vast
ly proud if he is through high school at IA. We con-
slider that we have added to the glory of nations if
he is the youngest graduate in his college class. For,
after all, the most of this educational marathon is
done to appease the vanity of foolish parents.
Now this poor little 12-yearold, who may indeed
be a mental wonder, will miss a lot of joy. She will
finish college while still a mere youngster and viii
never have any delightful contacts with other children
because they will stand in such awe Of her and for
the reason that she will always be thrown with older
boys and girls.
Long ago, back in old England, Sir John Evelyn,
through his famous diary, tells about his little son, a
boy so pious and literary and learned that he as
founded all the neighbors. He could read his Bible in
infancy and the story of his wise sayings at the age
of a are quite pathetic coming from the lips of a
baby. But he died at 5. And no wonder. ANY young
ster who could mouth the wisdom Of forty at four
had better be dead, fer this world is surely not the
place for him.
Children should be given plenty Of time for growth
and education. You can't ram learning into them.
They should have leisure in childhood and not be for
ever crammed with things out of books. They should
be allowed to develop naturally and simply like plants
in the sun.
We have, of a surety, some records of infant
prodigies who made great men as, for instance, Mozart
in music, and Montaigne in literature, but for the most
stir in the world. Sudden mental growth often ceases
at adolescence. Slow and regular development is
best, after all. for surely nothing is more pitifui than
a wise and grown-up little CHI d.

No one apparently knew that there had been any
taking of the whisky in Federal custody in Indian.
apolis till the charge-later Observation-Disclosures made
by Representative La Guardia of New York. Since
then three men have pleaded guilty, and will, it is
supposed, suffer the penalty fortheir crime. But it
will be a miscarriage of justice If the investigation
stops here No one, we suppose, believes that these
three men-a janitor, a night Waterman and an en-
gineer-acted solely for themselves in the abstrac.
ton of $50 cases of whisky. Such a belief could be
entertained only by the most trusting and c%redulous.
That there were principals seems reasonably certain.
At any rate, the facts as they have been developed
point to that conclusion. The situation as it stands
is a challenge to the authorities, one which, of
course, will be accepted. Who got the whisky, any
way?-Editorial, indianapolis News, July 8.
The Times is glad to reprint from the Indian
apolis News the above editorial taken from it's issue
of Friday.
It is glad because there has come an echo to
the demands which The Times has been making from
that first day when a Socialist Congressman dis
closed what the Federal Judge from this district de-
slared to be a most Infamous disgrace" to Indiana.
just that the people of this city and this State
may know upon what basis the above direct charge
against the Federal forces of this city is made, let
there be repeated this history:
Congressman La Guardia made his charge upon
the floor of Congress that $50 cases of whisky, seized
by the Government, were missing from the Federal
building in this city.
The Times, and The Times alone, called atten-
ton to this grave charge.
It secured from Marshal Linus P. Meredith the
statement that the charge was false and that no
whisky was missing.
On the following day it secured from Marshal,
Linus P. Meredith, in whose custody the whisky was
placed, the statement that no one could tell whether
any whisky was taken because the officers who
seized it had never taken an inventory.
On the following day The Times printed a
statement from Bert Morgan, former prohibition di.
rector. that more than two years ago an investi.
gator from Washington had discovered that 22O
cases of whisky were then missing. The i~nyestiga-
tor, said MI; Morgan, was speedily out of service.
On the next day The Times printed a court

D0ctoring by Radio

We get much of radio as a vehicle
of jazz and propaganda, as good for
an evenings entertainment.
That is because of the way it is
generally employed, not because Of
the way 1t can be employed.

battle front know radio in a larger
way and appreciate what it holds in
store for the human race more
