LESSON ~ IA ~ ~

God the Forgiving Father, Luke
15:11-24, for Sunday, April 49,
This lesson sweeps the whole cir
Gle of theology, starting with man
unfallen in his Fathers house, trac-
ing his fall through alienation and
degeneration down to degradation
and in his return through reflection
and resolution to restoration, when
he was once more a son in his Faith
er's home, and the circle was com
plete.
v. II, 12. "And he said, cer-
tain man had two sons; and the
younger of them said to his faith
er, Father, give me the portion Of
thy substance that falleth to me-
And he divided unto them his liv-
ing Selfshness is the essential
element of sin. Impatience Of re-
straint is bad sign.
v. 13. "And not many days af-
ter. the younger son gathered all
together and took his journey into
far country; and there he wasted
his substance in riotous living" The
tenderest ties should not be coldly
cut. New associates should be chos-
en- with care. One who starts out
to see the world may we'll guard his
steps. If we doubt God we shall
soon be on wayward path.
V. IA. ''And when he had spent
all, there rose a mighty famine in
that country And he began to be in
want" Vice rapidly runs through
all that man has. 1t is the blind
ness of sin that never looks ahead
and fails to consider results till a

wretched doom is met.
V. Is. ."And he went and joined
himself to one Of the citizens of
that country; and he sent him into
the fields to feed swine.' The sin
full pleasures that are at first
sweet liberty at last become vile
bondage. The outcast of sin is cast
out indeed.
V. 16. "And he fain would have
filled his belly with the husks that
the swine did eat; and no man gave
unto him." When his money was
gone his friends left him. He still
had the virtue Of honesty since he
would not take the feed away from
the swine.
V. II. 'And when he came to
himself he said, How many hired
servants of my fathers have bread
enough and to spare, and | perish
here with hunger" Sin is insan-
ity; it prevents the judgment; but
SO long as he can think, there is
hope, if there is the right sort of
reflection which is the first step to
repentance.
V. Is, 49, II will arise and go
to my father and will say unto him,
Father, / have sinned against heav-
en- and in thy sight. I am no more
worthy to be called thy son; make
me as one Of thy hired servants"
His will took him away from his
fathers house, and now his will
must bring him back In his reso-
luton there was faith, II will go to
my father" there was penitence, 81
have sinned;" there was obedience,
make me as one of thy hired SER
wants"
V. 20. "And he arose and came
to his father. But while he was yet
afar off, his father saw him and
was moved with compassion, and
ran, and fell on his neck and kiss
ed him." His fatherhood both an
tedated and outlasted his unfaith-
ful sons rebellion, and he was still
the father of the prodigal in his
deepest degradation. Here is a pic
ture of the love of God; when we
are still dead in sin and trespasses,
God loves US.
V. 21. ''And the son said to
him, Father, | have sinned against
heaven and in thy sight; l am no
more worthy to be called thy SON.
There is nothing sinner has to
offer that is worthy; no one claims
heavenly rights by any merits.
''Jesus as I am, I come to thee"
V. %, %. But the father said
to his servants, Bring forth quickly
the best robe and put it on him;
and put ring on his hand, and
shoes on his feet; and bring the
fatted calf and kill it, and let us
eat and make merry" By-gones,
though bad, were by-gones. The
marred picture Of the past revels is
overpainted with the superb por-
trait of the fathers feast.
v. "a 'For this my son was
dead, and is alive again; he was
lost and is found. And they began
to make merry" There is spirit
ual death in this life which is more
alarming than physical death God
has provided eternal life for all
who will come to him.

NEW YORK, December 1l.-Spe-

in today's market, many getting IN

same time number of recent leaders,
confronted by selling pressure, were
unable to make headway and some
backed up for substantial losses.

Low-priced issues splattered the

Brokers saw nothing especially in
the news TO spur the list one way or

in the industrial scene, and the Brit

helped organize the Federal Reserve
System, serving during the period of
the World War.
He became president of the Ma

Washington was considerably behind
all the other cities in this trade area.
The failure to make better gain is
due to the fact that in November, 1885,
sales were 20 per cent above the like
month in 1884. That figure proved
too much of a gain to exceed again
this year by any large amount. Hunt

players against each other and only
the track owners win out, Pringle
added. He described this form Of
gambling as "anti-social and crime
producing method Of robbing the peo-
pie"
Racing is the greatest racket in
America today" Pringle declared.
He read excerpts from a magazine
article, Rhode Island Picks the
Wrong Horse" in which merchants
and bankers and landlords were
quoted as saying rents could not be
collected, department stores sales had
fallen off as much as IS per cent, re-
lief demands had increased, more
than s1.000,O00 had been withdrawn
from savings accounts in Providence
banks and people were gambling their
relief checks, all occurring after legal
ization of pari-mutuel betting and the
establishment of a race course outside
Providence.
Right Rev. william S. Chase of the
International Reform Bureau, directed
the opposition to the bill, introducing
the various witnesses. He also briefly
registered his objections to legalizing
horse racing in the District.
The bills chief Endorsement yes
terday came from organized labor.
William c. Murphy, representing
the Central Labor Union, argued
that legalized racing would stamp
out racketeering, while construc-
tion Of a race track would pro-
vide work for 1000 or more un-
employed building tradesmen for
a period of four months. He also de-
clared the principal opposition to legal
lied racing comes from sources now
operating illegally.
Frank J. Coleman, secretary Of the
Central Labor Union, and Charles e.
Sands of the Hotel, Restaurant and
Bartenders' Association, were among
the others who approved the bill.
Sands said operation of race track
in the District would mean quite q
little work" for the interests he rep
resents.
Another labor leader who indorSed
the bill is Herbert Rivers, secretary
treasurer of the building trades de-
partment of the American Federation
of Labor.
The subcommittee was. told that q
of business and civic organi-
cations had approved the bill. These
included the District Federation of
Business Mems Associations, the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Associa-
ton, the District Northeast Business
Mems Association, the Georgetown
