OF course, this strip Is particularly
useful In older buildings, where the
original wiring was not done for the
multiplicity of electrical gadgets our
homes boast today. You may plug
in any electrical equipment. lamps,
radios, clocks, curling iron, fans, heat
ing pads. or. if you install the strip
in the kitchen, percolators, chafing
dishes, refrigerators and irons.
A blank section of strip, without any
outlets at all. Is supplied with this new
convenience, so you need not waste
outlets on inaccessible places such as
behind the radiators or back of the
sofa. The blank sections are very
cheap, and the outlet strips are less
costly per outlet than any Dashboard
outlet of which we have heard up
to now.
The installation, which is simple,
must be done by an electrical con-
tractor but it is quick job and neat
one. No walls need be dug apart. no
finish marred. There is no additional
or special wiring to be done.
If you wish. you can remove your
ceiling and bracket lights and set up
lamp in every corner. You'd be sur
priced how different your familiar
room appears with its lights brought
down to earth.

Saturday night after a haberdash-

had "a date with a girl at the
hotel last Wednesday night.
The yiolinist claimed he was at

Clevenger was slain-established
as about l a. m. last Thursday.
Miss Ward supported this alibi,
telling officers that Wollner re

Study Acts 1859 to Sd; l Peter
4:12-19.
For a time the Temple was the
scene of the Apostles work, wor-
ship, and warfare, some of them
being repeatedly arraigned and
imprisoned in Jerusalem; and it
was Just outside the walls that
Stephen was thrust and cruelty
stoned to death. The persecution
of the church at Jerusalem result
ed in the dispersion of the dis
ciples into the region round about
where they continued to scatter
gospel seed and reap golden
harvest.
Years afterward, out of a rich
experience, Peter wrote a letter
of encouragement to the persecut-
ed Christians in Asia Minor.
PERSECUTION in PALESTINE
(Acts 7,S)
The Mother Church at Jerusalem
suffered but survived the bartyr-
dom of Stephen and the drastic
persecution that followed. CD
The First Martyr was Stephen
who after fulfilling as deacon and
evangelist ministry at once fear
less and faithful, closed his career
in tempest of hate. Accused of
blasphemy against Moses and God
and arraigned before the Sanhe-
drin he made his defense in a re-
view of Jewish history as connect
ed with Abraham, Joseph, Moses
and David. The Impotence or op,,
position of the court caused
Stephen to declare that the San
hedrin were resisting the Holy
Spirit, were imitators of their
prosecuting fathers, were them
selves murderers of the Just One,
and were disobedient to their own
law. Then came the climax. The
convicted hearers were cut to the
heart by Stephens defense and
"they CRASHED on him with their
teeth" The revealed Lord was
clear before the eyes of uplookln1g
Stephen who, full of the Holy
Spirit, "saw the glory of God, and
Jesus standing on the right hand
of God" The stoning mob, eXclt-
ed by Stephens declaration, cry
ing out in confusion, stopping
their ears, ran rudely upon Ste
phen, dragged and thrust him out
side the city and determined at
once to put him to death. The
approving Saul, possibly a men,
Der of the Sanhedrin, perhaps a
disputant with Stephen in the
synagogue, certainly an avowed
enemy of the infant church, cared
for the outer garments of the
false witnesses who stripped
in order to hurl the
yolley of stones upon their victim.
The diving Stephen suffered mar
tyrdom like the hero he was: he
called upon God, he committed
himself to God, he prayed for his
enemies, and ne 1elI asleep.
(2) The Third Persecution scat
tered the church at Jerusalem.
The death of Stephen did not sat
isfy Saul the brilliant and Jealous
Sanhedrist; for tiger-like, having
tasted of Christian blood ne
thirsted for more. In the great
persecution which now arose he
was the chief inquisitor and ter
ror-king. Determined to exterml-
nate utterly the new faith he lit
orally made havoc of the
church," searching the homes and
haunts of its members; hallng
men ard women alike before the
authorities and giving his own
testimony and vote against them;
