SPUND LOSES APPEAL
Brokers Commission of $1,525 Is
Upheld in Real Estate Deal.

Jacob Spund today lost his appeal
from a Judgment of the District Su-
preme Court requiring him to pay a
brokers' commission of $l,525 to the
Cafritz Construction Co. The District
Court of Appeals, in an opinion by
Chief Justice Martin, affirmed the de-
cision of the lower court.
The company is a licensed real estate
broker and negotiated a sale of property
worth $30,500 to Spund on promise to
pay 5 per cent commission. Later
Spund claimed he had bought direct
from the owner and showed a contract
calling for $30,500 net.
The lower court permitted oral evil
dence to prove that Spund had agreed
to pay the commission, and counsel for
Spund objected it had the effect of vary
ing the terms Of a written contract by
parole. Chief Justice Martin pointed
out the company was not party to the
written contract and Is not barred from
parole testimony to prove the agreement
to pay commission. The contract was
between the buyer and seller only, and
the plaintiff had no part in 1t, the court
added,

The textof u lesson Is from the
beautiful story OF the walk 10 En-
maus. and the whole story. OF course,
must be read to get the proper
setting for the portion specially de-
signated as the lesson.
The story is one that has very
special significance in many re-
spects apart from its specific teach
ing. II has en- important bearing
upon the question in many minds
Did Jesus really rise from the dead?
Or have we in our records Of the
Resurrection, as some apparently
believed even at an early day in the
history Of the church. "cunningly
devised fables?"
Here Is the story or two disciples
making the long journey to En-
mauS, detected and manifestly sad
az heart as they talk about the
Crucifixion OF the man whom they
had followed, and whom they had
trusted rs the y who was TO re-
deem Israel. Walking and talking
in this detected way they are join
ed by a stranger who introduces
himself TO them by remarking upon
their sadness and asking its &C.
casion. They marveled that he ha:
not heard Of the tragic things that
have been going on in Jerusalem
Prophecy Fulfilled
Whereupon he begins TO open uT
TO them their own Scriptures anc
TO show them that ID was fitting
. thai thn AHaurvnA MAlVTI rNWFFa~
and that all that happened was In
the fulfillment Of what their prop
bets had said. Marveling at his ex-
position. they came TO the end OF
the journey and invited the stran-
ger TO come In. and eat with them
AS he took the bread and blessed
IL their eyes were opened and they
knew him as their Risen Lord.
It Is a strange and remarkable
story. about which we might ask
many questions and concerning
which there are many implications
Why did the disciples not know this
stranger? How did they come TO re.
cognize him so fully before he lef'
them? In what way did his ap-
pearance differ from the earthly
Master. whom they had known? Mos
aSSuredly there was some marked
difference or they would have re-
cognized him at once. But In the
midst OF all our questioning We
must be deeply impressed with Tho
simple directness OF the story. The
manner Of its narration suggests II
authentic quality. and the beauty
of its spiritual message links 1t with
the highest truths.
We are not called upon TO explain
this remarkable appearance Of the
Risen Lord TO the disciples. III VIZ
could explain that appearance,
there would be nothing miraculou.
o. remarkable about it. 1t is diff
cult. however. for n TO read thi.
narrative without feeling the reality
