The Weekly Sunday School Lesson

moral world, without being weighed
in the balance and found wanting.
Disaster sooner or later overtakes
the individual or the nation whose
course in life is weak and wrong. It
is the wholesome virtues of life that
upbuild, while the vices inevitably
destroy.
How strange it seems that man
does not learn this lesson more
easily and effectually. So many in
the world still follow in the foot
steps of Belshazzar rather than in
the wholesome paths and practices
of Daniel
There is still good motto for the
rising generation in the verse OF a
HYMN we were singing a generation
ago:
Dare to be a Daniel. Dare to stand
alone.
Dare to have a purpose firm. Dare
to make it known.

4 Real Mother

There's a real reason why
the realistic maternal por-
trayaIs given by Mary Carr in
scores of pictures have made
her the most famous and best
loved mother Of the screen.
Mrs. Carr is the mother Of six
children. all of whom are
grown to young manhood and
womanhood. She not only
mothered, but supported her
brood for a number of years
during a protracted illness OF
her husband, and often rushed
from q long days work as
screen mother to take up her
duties as a mother in fact. She
has played mother to most Of
the film celebrities at one time
or another. The latest in this
fictitious relationship is Alan
Hale in Pathe's sailors Holt
day"

FOUR MARX
BROTHERS AT CIRCLE

The Cocoanuts," with the -Four
Marx Brothers, opens today at the
Circle theater. inaugurating at that
house the New Show Era for the
month of August.
Here is the method of musical
comedy brought to the screen, all
talking, all-singing, all-dancing
and all-laughing. If the lovers have
a song in mind when they are in
conversation, they sing it. If the
chorus feels like interrupting the
action with one of their dances, they
skip right out.
And through it all the Marx
Brothers, one of the most hight pow
cred and popular comedy teams on
the Broadway stage, twist a gay
thread of laughter.
THE CocOanuts" is the Marx
Brothers great stage hit which
played New York at $3.50 for one
year. The music was composed by
Irving Berlin. He added a new
theme song, When My Dreams
Come True" for the screen presenta-
ton and Oscar Shaw and Mary
Eaton, in the romantic leads, SING
this tuneful melody.
Walter Huston, well-known stage
and screen star will be seen in an
added attraction, Two Americans
an all-talking short feature of I'M
usual distinction. In it. he portrays
the role of Abraham Lincoln, and
also that of U. S. Grant.
Dessa Byrd offers another of or
gan solos. Two Vitaphone hits and
a talking news reel will complete the
bill.

EdatOf OF Mt CoHBItEdNioidIiSt
NEW passages in literature have
4 made a more striking impress
sion upon the world than the de-
scription Of the feast of Belshazzar
as found in our lesson. One reason
is that it typifies the corruption in
nigh places and the revelings that
in some form or other have been
prevalent in almost every age.
There is a strange law of degra-
Gation in mans being, and he is
capable of making a sorry exhibit
ion of himself where he is not re-
strained by strong will and moral
self discipline. It is hardly fair TO
characterize the conduct Of the
reveler as beastIy, for a decent beast
would not do what men and women
descend to when they lay aside re-
straint. Strong drink has always
been a pronounced factor in de-
stroyjng such restrain, and Wher-
ever drinking habits have prevailed
in a community there have usually
been the accompaniment OF cor
ruption and gross immortality,
To this etxent the story of an
Gent revels in Babylon finds its
counterpart in the modern world.
Here in America even the law does
not restrain the disgraceful eX-
cesses and revelries of those who
are lost to ideals of righteousness
and truth. Always in history, how
ever, there have been the striking
contrasts, and no age has been so
violent that it has not produced its
Daniels of sObriety, decency and
self-restraint.
References in the comment on
our last lesson to the nature of the
Book Of Daniel may be recalled,
particularly the statement that
scholarly students predominantly
tend today to regard the book as an
! apocalypse. Whether in the present
instance the story of BelShazzar'S
feast is a parable, or a parable with
some historic warrant or setting, the
likelihood is that in view of the date
in which the Book of Daniel APP
parentIy was written, lu9 story OF
the feast was written long after the
day Of Belshazzar.
This may account for one or two
discrepancies in the story which Go
rot in any way affect its teaching.
Historical evidence seems to indi-
cate that Nebuchadnezzar was not
the father Of Belshazzar, but that
the latter was the son Of King
Nabonidus, Of a different family
from Nebuchadnezzar. The evidence
also seems to be that Belshazzar
never was king, but was crown
prince and commander-in-chief Of
the army. His father was an anti
Quarian with a deep interest in an
Gent ruins and relics, who left the

Their voices were usually all right

perience in acting before the

Of the essentials for the job as the
