Church School M
The Glendale Church School met
at the usual hour Sunday morning
with 109 teachers and scholars pres
ent. This was a fine showing for this
season of the year when most
church schools lose membership in
stead of gaining. A very interesting
lesson was presented for the schol-
ars perusal. The comments showed
that the teachers and pupils had
given this lesson serious thought.
The title Goods Help in Achieving
the Impossible" The lesson of today
seems to treat at the final departure
of Children of Israel from Egypt,
and their pursuit by the hosts COM
posed of Pharaoh's army. The scene
is upon the banks. of the Red Sea.
Hear the cry of the Children of Is
rael when they beheld the pursuing
army; hear what they say to their
great leader, Moses. Because there
are no graves in Egypt has thou
taken us away to die in the wilder
ness? Wherefore has thou dealt
thus with us, to bring us forth out
of Egypt? Is not this the word that
we spake unto thee in Egypt, say
ing let us alone, that we may serve
the Egyptians? For it were better |
for us to serve the Egyptians, than
that we should die in the wilder
ness" H..
How little faith they had after
having seen the works of the Lord
in their behalf while prisoners in
the hands of Egyptians. -.
But hear Moses as he tells them:
Fear not, stand still and see the
salvation of the Lord which they
did. When Moses at the. direction of
God stretched out his hand over the
3ea and the waters were divided and
the Children of Israel passed over
Try shod and the pursuing hosts
we're caught when the waters rolled
back and were drowned.
The people of today are very
much like the Children of Israel.
Whenever things look bright and
'osy they seem happy, but when the
scene changes and things look dark
Ind gloomy they fail to understand
hat hhe power that gave to Moses
he power to speak those words,
stand still, fear not and see the
Aviation of the Lord, now says to
ou, "stand your ground" a little
aith will turn your dark and gloo-
ny surroundings into the brightest
unlight. ,
oh for a faith that will not shrink
When pursued by earthly foes"
