ed for the journey and started at
full pace for the distant city, but
God interviewed. Paul was stopped
on his route, he was stricken, and
he heard the voice of Christ saying,
Paul! PAUL! Why persecutest thou
Me. He became humble, and asked
what should he do. He was told.
This was the turning point in the
life of Paul He became a convert
ed man, and from man breathing
death and vengeance against the
Christian race he now returns
bringing to the people of Jerusalem
a message of peace and good will to
all mankind. Paul saw in the
crowds men who had been his
friends when he was a Pharisee, but
now having heard of the preaching
of the Apostle and the great sue
cess he was having on his mission
ary tours, were now ready to de-
stroy him, as an enemy to the doc
trine which the Pharisees advOcat-
ed.
Paul was fearless and no doubt he
would have been killed by the mob
that day in Jerusalem only for the
interference of the Chief Captain,
who saved him, but bound him with
chains.
But Paul asserted his right as
Jew of Tarsus in Calicia, citizen of
no mean city, and asked of his cap
tors right to speak to the people.
What do you suppose Pauls mes
sage was to the people of Jerusal-
EN-? It was no different in many
ways from others he had delivered |
at other points; a message full of |
the love and kindness, which come
to all people who believed on Him
Whom the Apostle served.
Next Sunday Paul will be in
Rome.
The Morning Sermon
The Rev. Mr.. ConnOr delivered a

very thoughtful and instructive SER
mon Sunday morning. His text was
taken from Matthews gospel, fifth
chapter, 3rd verse, Blessed are the
poor in spirit for theirs is the King
dom of Heaven" 1t was one of those
sermons that awakens the souls of
women and men and brings them
nearer to the One Who spoke the
words of the text.
At the evining service the Ep-
worth League had charge. Miss Ra-
chel COverdale, leader.
Miss Coverdale presented very
nice program, one of the prominent
features was the singing of Rev. and
Mrs. Connor.
The pastor delivered another in
spring sermon, based on the text
taken from Matthews gospel, fifth
chapter and part of the 14th verse
Eye are the light of the world" 1t
was also a sermon filled with advice
to believers-what they must do to
become the lights of the world.

EpWOrth League
The Epworth League of the Ell
lendale NJ. E. Church is planning to
give grand play in the school au-
ditorium some time about the first
of December.
The title of the play "Our Awful
Aunt" will be interesting and enter
tanning to people who have rela-
tives of that kind.
Those who are familiar with those
who have this play in charge will
feel that something more than the
ordinary will be produced the night
when the entertainment is placed
before the public.
Next week full particulars and the
cast of characters will be given.
Ladies' Aid
Don't forget the bazaar and tur-
key supper which will be held in
the school auditorium on Thursday
and Friday evenings of the present
week. The Ladies Aid expects to
make this supper the grandest yet
held. Everybody invited and every
body should come and help in
good cause.
Church School
The Church School Sunday NOR
ming had only 72 teachers and pu-
pills present out of an enrolment of
218. This is not quite one-third of
the enrolment present.
This would seem to require work
on the parts of all concerned to
bring the attendance up to what it
should at least be, 60 per cent. !
The superintendent and officers |
have work to do, but don't expect |
too much of them. Remember that |
you as teachers and the older
scholars have a work to do as well, |
and when all work together, filled |
with desire to help the commun-
ity in which they live, things will |
move forward and not before.
There is another thing which is
essential to building any church
school to its highest standard, and
that is all the workers should be
full of the Holy Spirit; this should
remove all disagreements of any
kind, and all disposition to make
themselves obnoxious to others by
asserting themselves to be more
prominent than they should be.
Whenever you see a school where

PIONEERS PATH
Joys And Sorrows Mingled As
Brave Adventures Moved
Toward Cherished Goal

There is not a scene in Raoul
Walsh's Fox Film, "The Big Trail, .
that is not founded on fact. The lit
tie less than two hours it takes to
see and hear this truly epochal reen-
actment of the march of the pioneers
obviously cannot reveal the months
of research involved in the interests
of historical accuracy.
The road to Oregon, for example,
which was also the central route to
California, was not single trail.
Between the Missouri River and the
Pacific Ocean there were by-paths,
cut-offs, decisions and snares. By
whatever route the wagoneer passed,
he had to cross rivers, creeks and
mountains. If, beyond South Pass
or Fort Bridger he pushed westward
to California, rather than northwest
ward to Oregon, he thirsted in a re-
gion of salt and alkali.
And yet life not without beauty
went on along that highway. Mar
riages were made, children were born.
Banjos were picked and fiddles bowed
under the clear stars; young feet
danced on the soft prairie carpet
around the campfres; high SHOWS
glittered under the sun of noon and
hope was a shining cloud beyond the
mountains.
Because "The Big Trail" was a
fitting dedication to the pioneers was
the reason Walsh has made it on the
screen living, breathing thing, with
thousands of players living over
again for months what those of 9
century ago lived and suffered.
"The Big Trail" is by far the best
Movietone that Raoul Walsh has ever
made. 1t comes to the New Dream
Theatre March 20. 80 and 81.
