the light of his presence the
angel smote the sleeping apostle
and raised him up. Thereupon
the chains fell off his wrists.
Then at the angels words, he
! dressed himself and followed his
deliverer, leaving the guards,
passing the first and second
wards, going out through the
iron gate which opened of itself
directly upon the street, and pro-
ceeding together a block from
the prison walls when the angel
disappeared. 1t took Peter lit
tie time to realize that he was
actually at liberty and not in a
trance. Then he knew he was
out of the hands of Herod be
cause he was in the hands of
God.
3. FELLOWSHIP
Deliverance Through 1nterces-
sion was the divine partnership
in Peters freedom. Anticipating
the execution of Peter, many of
the disciples were spending the
night in prayer at the houses Of
Mary. the mother Of John Mark,
a reltive of Barnabas, and doubt
less a well-to-do member of the
church at Jerusalem. Possibly
Barnabas and Saul were present
in the prayer meeting that night.
Thither Peter went as soon as he
realized that he was at liberty.
He knocked at the street en-
trance to gain admittancc. A
maid-servant named Rhoda Cor
Rose) answered his call; but
when she recognized his voice she
was so overjoyed that without
opening the door, she rushed
within and reported the presence
of Peter. At first they thought
Rhoda insane, and then that Pet
er's spirit was haunting them.
Meanwhile, Peter kept on knock
ing and at last the door was
opened and the little group filled
with ecstatic Amusement at the
answer to their prayers. Notion
ing for all to be quiet and not
attract the attention Of any sol
diers who might soon be on the
prisoners track, Peter told his
story in brief and asked that
these things be told to James
(the brother of the Lord) and
the other brethren. With great
joy they must have heard the
welcome news.
d. DEPARTURE
And he departed, and went in
to another place.
Deliverance for Service was
the divine purpose in Peters SAT-
ETY.. Immediately Peter departed
from the house of Mary and
doubtless also from Jerusalem al
though his destination was not
specified. He had to flee and
flee quickly, or his life would be
the forfeit. Later we find him
at Antioch. He reappeared also
in Jerusalem after Herod's mis-
cradle death. And his mission

that also is a relatively small
figure compared with the many

This small beginning doubtless
will have a stimulating effect
from the notice which it will give

If later any action in this di-

This action can be reversed if
need be by issuing bonds for

kept under control. In other

WEEKLY SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
Peter Delivered From Prison
By HIGHT c. MOORE
Sunday, March II.

Sunday, March II.
Acts 12:5-17.
Golden Text-Prayer was made
without ceasing of the church
unto God for him.-Acts 1875.
Herod Agrippa l, nephew of
Herod Antipas, and grandson of
Herod the Great who sought to
kill the infant Christ, was "king"
over Palestine the last three
years of his life (41-44 ADJ.
To please the Jews he prosecuted
the church at Jerusalem, probab-
ly on the pretext that the dis
ciples accepted Christ as king.
The first blow fell upon James.
son of Zebedee and brother of
John, who was slain not by Jew
ish stoning but by Roman sword,
being the first of the apostles to
suffer martyrdom. This so de-
lighted the Jews that Peter was
next thrown in prison, but he
miraculously escaped, as told in
our lesson today.
1. IMPRISONMENT
Deliverance from Persecution
was the divine task in Peters
rescue. AS the target of Herod's
second blow at the apostolic
body, Peter was arrested and
lodged in prison. Since Passover
was in progress and he did not
wish to ruffle the surface sensi-
bilities of the Jews by an execu-
ton, Herod kept Peter in prison,
expecting to put him out of the
way as soon as the feast was
over. Meantime, Peters expected
martyrdom brought members of
the church at Jerusalem to their
knees in fervent prayer that his
life might be spared Still, when
what seemed his last night on
earth arrived, Peter lay bound
with chains to the two soldiers
guarding him; he was confined
in cell before which armed SEN
tries stood; and there seemed no
possibility of escaping from
prison whose locked gates were
strongly guarded and whose walls
were impenetrable.
2. RELEASE
Deliverance by Miracle was the
divine method in Peters escape.
1t was probably between 8 and 6
a. m. when the fourth guard of
soldiers was attending Peter that
the delivering angel came. Amid

Miss Cynthia Arden, 19-year-old
debutante daughter of a prominent
Baltimore family, went to see the
play when it opened in New York
two years ago. She sat enthralled,
pictured herself in the part of Ellie
May, the hare-lipped daughter of
Jeeter Lester.
On shoe-String chance she went
to see the producer. 1t happened
that he was casting a company to
tour in Tobacco Road" She went
through the usual rigors of a try
out, came out on top with the part.
And wonder of wonders, her family
was tickled. Not because they would
be getting rid of Cynthia, but be-
cause going on the stage would keep
her from achieving her other am
bition-that of being a trained
nurse.
Talk About Luck
Miss Elaine Ellis attained her
present part in the play by an even
more lucky break than Miss Arden.
She was in school at the University
of Arizona, appeared in an amateur
production there.
1t just happened that Sam Girls
man, the producer was motoring
back from the coast where he had
started his second Tobacco Road
company, and stopped in at the
school play. He saw Miss Ellis.
thought she would make a good
Pearl Lester, told her to look him
up when she came to New York.
The rest is obvious.
The so-called pitfalls of the road
have never threatened the two girls,
so they say. They have no chap
erons. They stick together in
everything. And maybe you don't
think they are going to have some
thing to tell their families when
they get back.
She Writes Stories, Too
In her spare time, Miss Arden
writes stories, would like to write
play as good as Tobacco Road
She once wrote light-hearted piece
about life and death, she says.
Miss Arden's hare-lip for the part
of Ellie May is managed with a
piece of string to pull her lip back,
and a smudge of red grease paint.
Off stage, she is quiet, pretty,
smiling girl, with coal black, bobbed
curls and a musical voice.
Miss Ellis, who wears a long
