David, l Samuel 16:4-13; Psalm
7S;70-72, for Sunday, Sept. 8:
How far should one carry his
sorrow in affliction or disappoint-
ment?
What is the secret of true great
ness?
What qualities should we expect
in those who are to rule over us
today?
What is the difference between
mans judgment of true greatness
and Gods?
What crowns may we win and
wear?
Compare Saul and David.
Glorious says: "God sees the pos
sibilities that lie folded in us, and
He will call us to service as we will
give these possibilities an oppor-
tunity to unfold. Every soul has a
kingdom in itself and is called to
win crown
Lesson prayer: "Help us to do
our every task so we'll that it may
not only make a worthy contribu-
tion in service, but that by the do

Foreman Reunion

The tenth Foreman reunion was
held Sunday, Aug. 20, on the fair
grounds at McConnelsville. A picnic
dinner was served at noon, after
which H. M. Foreman gave short
history of the early migration of
the Foremans, and a brief history of
trip to the old Foreman home
stead in Hampshire county Vir-
ginia. This farm has been in the
Foreman name since before the
Revolutionary war. The original
house is still in good preservation
and is occupied at present time.
The Foreman cemetery is located
near the dwellings. David Fore
man was the first to be buried there,
in 1875. 1t now contains 1876
graves. James H. Foreman gave a
lengthy and interesting talk on the
early history, and why family re
unions should be held. Belle Will
ley recited poem, and the same
one she recited on her Goth we'd

ficers chosen for next year were c.

Eliab was much like Saul in ap-
rearance; but Samuel had learned
his lesson, and waited for the Lord
to direct. Men ought to profit by
past experiences.
v. 7. "But Jehovah said unto
Samuel, Look not on his counten-
ance, or on the height of his stat
ure; because I have rejected him;
for Jehovah seeth not as man
seeth; for man looketh on the out
ward appearance, but Jehovah look
eth on the heart" Not how you
look, but what you are, ought to be
the first care of our life. Ones aim
and motive when truly Christian
not only count in the measure of a
man, but in time like David's his
expressions and appearances will be
beautiful.
VS.. Sill. "And Samuel said unto
Jesse, Are here all thy children?
And he said, There remaineth yet
the youngest, and, behold, he is
keeping the sheep. And Samuel
said unto Jesse, Send and fetch
him; for we will not sit down till
he come.' Idleness is wrong, and
laziness crime. Industry occupies
and edifies. A worthy task is
great blessing; there can be no de-
yelopment or achievement without
it. Nobody thought David had
chance, and he was put out Of the
way and forgotten. Many who pos
sess inward greatness are in hiding;
much credit goes to the one who
will discover such lads and do all
in their power to give them a
chance.
V. 12. "And he sent and brought
him in. Now he was ruddy and
withal of a beautiful countenance
and goodly to look upon. And Je-
hovah said Arise and anoint him,
for this is he." Seekers after places
are often the most unworthy. 1t is
only when God has chance in Sc
lecting leaders that good govern
ment, better social conditions and a
better community follow.
V. 13. '"Then Samuel took the
horn of oil and anointed him in the
midst of his brethren, and the spirit

The latest translation Of the
Bible is that of the gospel of st.
Mark, in Mundang, dialect used
in Africa, and published by the
British and Foreign Bible Society.
Through this same society, tribes in
Borneo have received the first COM

With the appearance of this book.
the entire New Testament has ap-
peared in 100 languages, the COM
plete Bible in 174 languages, and
portions of the Bible in 572 Ian
guages. The latest publication of
the American Bible Society is the
Gospel of st. Matthew in Keres. a
dialect spoken by tribe of Indians

complete gospel to appear in this
tongue.
In 1892, churches and religious
bodies showed a total net gain of
929,252 members 1S years of age
and over, according to the Chris
tian Herald annual report of church
statistics. The total membership
reached the record figure of So
037, ,209. The 25 largest Protestant
bodies taken as a separate unit
showed gain for the year of 921,-
941. The Christian Herald report
confirms the assertion that the
country is turning back to the
church, and the church is still the
nations greatest going concern.

Governor Paul " McNutt contin-
