Symbolism in Lesson

The lesson has been one of con-
siderable interest to mystics who
have seen in the guards and in the
iron gate the SYMBOLS of life's bar
riers and difficulties which disap-
pear when they are challenged with
faith and the guidance of God.
There are iron gates that seem to
make the way of escape in life i'm
possible, but which open of their
own accord when one comes really
up to them. We are all disposed to
see the difficulties as we look ahead
that can not be surmounted, but
when comes forward with prayer
and courage, not doubling the di-
vine leadership, how often these
things either disappear or become
easy Of conquest.
We all remember how, in our boy
hood days, when we went bicycle
touring if we travelled a very hilly
road the appearance of every new
hill in itself gave a discouraging
sense of fatigue. How often, how
ever, one viewed hilly road ac~oss
the valley from the top of anothe<
hill. Seen from that angle the hill
which one had to climb looked enor-
nous, but when one got down e
the foot of the hill which he was
descending the road had often
Strengthened out into a very slight
slope. That is typical of the hills
of life. There are mountain height%
that are particularly hard to climb,
but in the main it is the tendency
of mankin, deSpecially in the mat
ter of moral and spiritual progress,
to make mountains out of mole
hills.
1t was for this reason that the
Scripture writer's referred SO ofteE
to crooked ways being made straight
and mountains being brought low.
They wanted to remind the people
of the power of God to make
straight the way of the soul.

UNITED POWER
OF prayer TOLD
I IN THIS LESSON
Peter Respons to Angels
Bidding to Bind on
His Sandals.
The International Uniform Sun
day SchOu7 Lesson for June IL:
The Power of United Prayer
Acts 12:S>17.
BY VIM. E. GILROY, d. ID.

Editor of the Congregatlonahst
The Christian church was facing,
in it's earliest days, the persecu-
ton which has done so much from
the beginning to shape its course
and to develop it's strength. Peter
ha been thrown into prison at a
time when he was the most con-
spicuous figure in the church, and
when the fellowship of Christians
depended very largely upon his
presence and influence. 1t is a
tribute to the strength of character
and faith that these early disciples,
though Peter had beeen snatched
from them, did not weaken. Though
he was in prison, prayer was made
earnestly of the church unto God
for him."
The verses of the lesson proceed
to tell the story of Peters miracu-
1ous escape from prison. One thinks
in connection with it of the eXpe-
rience of Paul and SilaS in prison
. at later day. with their feet fast
in the stocks, singing psalms and
songs of praise to God. There is a
certain difference in the two MARIA
tives for which one cannot account.
Though Paul and Silas had the OPP
portunity to escape, they refused to
leave, and they encouraged their
fellow prisoners also to remain, in
that way saving the life of the pris-
on guard, who was aboutto kill him
self, and winning in him a devoted
and intense convert Tor the church
ct Philippi.
Miraculous Deliverance
Here in our lesson Peter meets
the opportunity differently. He re-
spends to the angels bidding to
grid himself and bind ON his SAN
dals, and he follows the angel past
the guards to freedom. At first, ap-
parently, he thought that he was
walking in a dream, but when he
came to himself he realized that he
had miraculous deliverance. Com
ing to the house of Mary, the moth
er of John Mark, he so aStoniShed
the little maid Rhoda, who
responded to his knocking at the
door, that in her excitement she
ran back to tell the company, for
getting to let him in. Peter i'm
mediately told the story of what
had happened to him, and made it
an occasion of thanksgiving to God.
A sad feature of the narrative,
however, is that the keepers of the
prison were condemned to death
when it was discovered in the
morning that Peter had escaped.
One would almost like to believe
b that an element of tradition had at
tached itself to a story that is less
noble and beautiful in its ending
than the story of Paul's prison ex-
perience. However, each must in

LONDON, October 15.-The news
of the world will say tomorrow that
Dorothy Cochrane Logan, London
physician, in a confession to the
paper, declared that she did not swim
the English Channel. The woman
physician whose record-breaking per.
formance was announced last Tues
day. in the confession" to the paper,
declared that she had perpetrated the
hoax to show it was easy to deceive
the public and in order to show the
desirabilty of establishing an interna-
tional commission to supervise and
certify all Channel swims.
"It was a fake to end fakes" the
physicians whose swims under the
name of Miss Mona Mcclellan and
was widely hailed as the woman whose
time of 1S hours and 10 minutes bet
tered the record of ii hours and 81
minutes held by Gertrude Ederle of
New York, is quoted as saying.
Her revelation is supported by her
trainer, Horace Fl. Carey, and her good
faith protected by letter she wrote
explaining her purpose before leaving
Hythe, England. for Cape Griz-Nez,
France, from which point she was
said to have started her swim.
DIR. Logan in making the disclosure
returned to the News of the World
check for 6 1000, which the paper
had offered to the English woman
who should improve upon Miss
Ederle's time.
After entering the sea at Cape Griz.
Nez Monday afternoon, Miss Logan
relates, she swan until she was be-
yond the sight of land or of any pos
sible observation. Then she was taken
into the boat which was conveying
her. This was manned by her train
er and two other men acquainted with
the whole plan.
After telling her story to the News
of the World and returning the check,
DR.. Logan explained that the protec-
tive lettGr would be found locked in
hotel safe at Hythe. The letter
was found as promised. 1t read:
"I, Dorothy Cochrane Logan, here
by declare before leaving Hythe to
start on my Channel swim on October
10, 1927, that I am not undertaking
this swim for any personal gain in
honor or money.
IF conditions are favorable I hope
to swim the Channel in straight
forward and unassisted manner. If
conditions are unfa vorable intend to
get across somehow with the purpose
of proving the necessity of independ-
ent umpires to prevent possible
abuses. If my swim is successful
without assistance, my trainer and
my two pilots will make an affidavit
with me to this effect, If there is no

have in any way faxed the result we
