An understanding Of what Mission
work In foreign lands means has Mrs.
wallace z. Brown. Helena. Mont,
who speaks ct the Methodist church
here Tuesday evening, under the aus
pices Of the Woman's Foreign Mis-
sionary society. Mrs. Brown spent
four years In China where Bishop
Brown was resident bishop Of the
Foochow area. During that time, ac-
cording to Miss Irene Gordon, editor
Of the Helena Messenger, she visited
every mission station in the area ex-
cept two and there were good rea-
sons why she could not reach tho.
She has Travelled under every possiL. e
hardship. stayed by the ship when her
life was actually in danger, and has
demonstrated in every possible way
that she Is good sport" as her
five sons would put it.
- Mrs. Brown has had a large expert
ence in all kinds of church and Sum
day school work and is interested in
both the Home and Foreign Mission
ary societies Of the church. From
Bismarck, where she is to be the
house guest Of Rev. and Mrs. w. e.
Water, she will go to Mandan for an

way we keep going far better then
than during the transient days of
spring. Why do we pile into these
precious weeks the hardest work OF
the year?
Why not enjoy the outdoors and
follow the line of least resistance as
far as possible-and allow the chill
dren to do the same? And then every
one would be happier and patient and
peaceful, as spring deserves.
But one thing we grown-upS must
do on days when the enervating south
wind blows our way. Be patient with

spirit of peace and good will, the
merce of peace, are in themselves
valuable factors in a nations well
fare and safety.
The reform which came IN
Israel under Ezra had as its basd
the re-discovery of the law. Ezra
knew the value of sacred litera-
ture. Every great spiritual moveI
ment in history has had its lettef
as we'll as its spirit. The lettet
gives to it defniteness and permai
nency, though there is always tho
danger that the spirit may be LOST
in the worship of the letter.
But Ezra represented the spirit
living in the written word, giving
it life and meaning. He prepared
his heart to seek the law of the
Lord"-a preparation that was
something mor than a prepare!
ton of the mind. He had zeal to
know Gods ways.
But he went farther than this!
With him zeal to know was a zeal
to do, and a zeal to teach, and en-
courage devotion in others.
Ezra is the type of the religious
statesman and leader whose ini
f1uence and power have been SO
manifest in history-not always
for ideal ends and in ideal ways,
but gloriously constructive where
conservation, wisdom and large
ness of vision have been the aci
compartments of spiritual cal
pacity. j.

THE events of the present lesson
occurred nearly 16 years after
THE story of the rebuilding of the
Temple in the preceding lesson.
Apart altogether from the in
%a1uence and destinies of Israel,
this was a memorable period in
the worlds history, for it was
during this time that Xerxes made
his famous invasion of Greece.
Ezra was a student and writer
pf the type famous throughout
history among the Hebrews, a
scholar we'll versed in the law and
ian enthusiastic patriot of Zion.
His coming to Jerusalem from
babylon with a party of priests,
ILevites, singers and porters, near-
lly 400 in all, marked a new era
i'm Israel. for Ezra was essentially
ia reformer.
There is an interesting and
very human touch in our lesson
I'm the danger which confronted
this little band because of their
lenemies.
Ezra had represented his ,..le-
ldition as marked by divine pur-
pose, and he felt, therefore. a hes
litancy about asking the king for
soldiers to guard his company
when he had himself suggested
THAT God was his strength. He
Ichose in his embarrassment the
!way of fasting and prayer and he
tells how God delivered his COM
ipany from the enemies and from
the dangers that lurked by the
way.
The distance travelled in his trip
Twas nearly a thousand miles, so
that one can sense something of
the nature of the expedition in
that time of slow and dangerous
travel. The cynic who believes
that safety depends entirely on
force and that God is on the side
Iof the great battalions, may scott
lat Ezra's confidence in spiritual
force, but it would be interesting
Ito compare the number of in
stances where safety has been as
lsociated with specific prayer and
practice, with the number of in
stances in which force and arms
have brought no real safety.
Just now in certain quarters
there is a profound confidence in
force and a feeling there is no
safety in anything but material
armament and strength. The les
Isons of history, however, by no
means uphold such a theory. 1t
is rather true Of nations and peo-
piles, that they that have taken up
1.-The sword have persisted with the
