passed. 1t was the blown up flame of
her reconsecrated life that lit the
preparations for departure within the
cottage among Moab's hills. The
three set out together toward the
fords of the Jordan. Presently they
reached the borders of the descent
and Naomi paused to bid them good
bye. Orpah turned obediently, but
Ruth stuck. She would never desert
her in her need. So they two passed
on together, neither dreaming that
through sacrifcial love both had be-
come immortal.
THE HIDDEN SPRINGS.
What is the source of this unusual
picture of devotion? 1t lay in Mao
mis- attractive life that honored her
God. Had she been a shrew it is quite
needless to say that Ruth would have
never followed her to Bethlehem. 1t
was high type of piety that was
lived in the Mo&bitish farmhouse. In
spite Of the possibilities Of friction
when two alien wives, certainly I'M
wanted, were crowded under her roof,
she had lived her love life so truly as
to lift this young girl completely out
of her old surroundings and her old
habits and her old faith. That was an
accomplishment. indeed. Ruth would
never have entered the Davidic line
save for Naomi's winsome living OF
her religion. Here lies the point Of
the story for us-are we making our
faith attractive to those about US?
Are aliens pressing their way in be-
cause of our presentation of the beau
ty of the Christian life?
There is room also for the inter
probation of her troubles by Naomi.
She came back extremely bitter over
Gods dealing with her. Years pass
and she would have been heard reJolc-
ing over the way He had led her, so
that even her affections had been OF
Him to further both her own faith
and to carry His great plans forward.
Sorrow always has a key if we will
trust God to reveal it.

THE DISASTER AND THE
DECISION.

The migrant stayed longer than he
expected. His grave was there. The
boys carried on the work of shepherds
perhaps, but there came the time
when some epidemic reached them
both, and in spite Of all that the three
women could do the little cemetery
was enlarged and three graves mark
ed its confines. 1t was then that Naomi
determined to go back to Bethlehem.
God had smitten her and she doubt

pressed the fear that others might

over the idea that he was being OF

Adolphe Menjou, who Is playing the

ing that the effect of big city be In
troduced by means of views through
windows or in backgrounds of studio

terest will be concentrated on the
story and players, and audiences will
not be tempted to make mental criti-
cisms by seeing Satan strolling down
Piccadily or along Fifth avenue. He
will seem more real.
