out of the sling found a vulnerable
spot in his armor, penetrated his
forehead, ana felled him to the
earth.
1t was day of victory for Israel,
for when the Philistines\ saw that
the champion was dead, as the
record says, they fed.
We leave to the boys and girls
the story in its mere details, to
emphasize the way in which this
lesson has been again and again
repeated in history. The great
and staggering things of life are
often inherently weak when they
are challenged with the spirit of
real courage. 1t is not in size that
strength consists. Especially in
the moral and spiritual realms the
thing that seems so small as to be
almost negligible is discovered to
be the thing Of real power. 1t was
this that Paul had in mind, REIN.
forcing his whole observation in
life, when he spoke of God as
choosing weak things to confound
the mighty, the things that are
naught to bring to naught the
things that are.
Example Often Repeated
1t is the lesson of the walls Of
Jericho falling before the trumpet
blasts and marching power Of a
few determined men; of a great
Spanish armada dispersed and
terrcr-striken by a brave-hearted
and resourceful English admiral
with few ships; it is the story Of
a few praying women attacking the
Goliath power of the liquor, traffic
in America and of that giant,
strongly entrenched in the business
and politics of the country, collaps-
ing before their determine ton and
their prayers. We can stand lit
tie more of that spirit of trust in
the right to finish this job, and the
many jobs that still confront those
who would destroy the strongholds
of iniquity.
The lesson of David's sling is that
he used the weapon that he had,
which he knew, and to which he
was accustomed. 1t is in the power
to use wisely and we'll what we have
that our chance of effective service
lies.

The lesson for today logically
proceeds that of last week, and a
seeming discrepancy in the chron-
biological order Is one of the things
that reminds us that various his
torical writings of the Old Tesla
ment are compilations in which the
editor, or compiler, has availed him
self of more than one account. in
terweaving these various accounts
into the narrative.
Here in our lesson we have a
concrete picture of the youth, David,
in an exploit which has challenged,
since the day when it was written,
the imagination of the young. In
cidentally, for older readers this
story has become a spiritual symbol
of real strength as opposed to mere
size and buster.
On the one hand is Goliath the
Philistine, a giant physically, pa
rading, as was the custom In an
cient warfare, before the opposing
armies, defying anyone OF the hosts
of Israel to come out and fight him
in personal combat. The men OF
Israel were fearful of his apparent
power and were impressed by his
bravado and buster. No man vol
unteered to 60 out, even trusting in
spiritual forces, and pit himself
against this staggering champion
of the Philistines.
Too Young to Fight
Into the camp of Israel came a
young shepherd boy, not as a fight
ing man, but bringing refreshment
to his older brothers. They thought
of him as too young to fight and
they had left him keeping his
fathers sheep. But the open-air
life of a shepherd, protecting his
flock in those dangerous areas, was
not entirely the beautiful pastoral
thing we often associate with shep-
herding. There were times when
this young lad had to defend his
flock against attack, and he had
killed a lion and bear, even going
after the bear and rescuing a lamb
that the animal had taken.
The lad who had killed lion
and bear was not apt to be very
fearful of what he described as IAN
uncircumcised Philistine defying the
armies of a living God" But David
trusted to his own weapons and his
own mission. He went forth with a
sling, choosing a few small stones.
Goliath was not quite prepared
for warfare such as that. Mani
testify he was affected by the
psychology of the thing. He did not
know quite what to make of it, and
he had not quite recovered from
his surprise until a smooth stone

MADRID. July 23.-Juan Bel

When a matador is awarded one

killed one afternoon, it is a great
victory. Two ears is better, but the
award Of three or four is sensation
al. The addition of one or two tails,
is almost unheard of.
Belmonte is IS years old, hardly
