No lesson could be more appro- priate or more needed, for our own times, than this one, based on pe- ter's vision on the houSetop. After i0 centuries, the Gospel of Jesus Christ faces the same barriers of racial and sectional prejudice that were present In the early days oS Christianity,
 Here was Peter, Q devout and earnest man, SO open-Enindod that he had beco: @ an apostle of the new faith; c man of fine emotions and of splendid courage, yet 60 bound by racial and religious prejudiceS that 1t was only by means of Q remarkable vision that God could break down his l1arrowa ness and ma'.s him see that SalvA- ton was aS much for the Gentle as for the Jew.
 The vision was 50 decided i1 It's details, and 50 plain in It's i'm. plications, that Peter could hardly miss its meaning, especially as hii dream had scarcely ended when tho three men who had been sent from caesarea by Cornelius, c Roman ot' ficer, came on their mission.
 It b to Peters credit that hC rose to the vision, that he set aside his narrow prejudices, and welcor1' cd Cornelius to the Christien faitt, aa A brother,

Sunday School Lesson - THE GOSPEL FOR ALL MEN
Text: Acts Il,S-lsI Romans l,lS.l7

Our prejudice may not be of the same sort as Peters, but rare is the man, even though hS profess sion of faith be deep, who has not somewhere in him the traces of seYne bias and prejudice that limits the fullneSs and tho expression of his brotherly feeling toward his fel- low men.
 When such . prejudice becomes barrier to the giving to men of the salvation that God intends for them, it is something more than Q small and personal thing; 1t Is an interference with divine plans and with divine grace.
 Paul, who had the same back ground of early training and prejudice that Peter had, overcame his p.ojudioeS more easily. Per- haps this was because Paul'a prejudice had made him c great perseeutor, and the conversion that changed him was 30 sudden and 50 extreme that his old prej- udices were more swiftly and cons pletely swept away.
 
 Both Paul and Peter were forced by the plain facts of grace to rocog- alEe that God is no respecter oi persons, and that the Gospel ol Christ is the power of God unto salvation to every one who believes regardless of the human limitations of creed, race, and other dividing factors.
 Man is never 30 godly as when no sees his fellow men with the love that takes in the whole human fam- fly. The world would justify accord ing to It's own interests and phil- osophy the narrow prejudices oi race, creed, class, and nationalism which thrive 50 abundantly In iti soil that they would choke out the flowers of grace and humanity. But in tho light of the New Testament and the true experience of God ir the soul, human prejudices and hates have . base and mean as- pect.

 New York, August 22 - It was Jay Franklin, in hIs column in the New York Post the other day, who hit the nall on the head when he said that investors of the nation "are making more money than ever and yet they howl"
 Mr. Franklin pointed out that by Che republican gospel of material prosperity alone, the country IS far advanced on the upgrade and the g.o.p. had nOth- ing to do with it, except as nieIn- bers of Congress voted for New Deal measures which started recovery.
 "In this connection" wrote MT. Franklin, "It Is important to point out that net farm income for 1885 was higher than for 1880, that bank deposits are higher than at the beginning of 1880, that kIIOwatt- -hOur production and assets of life inSuFance companies are at all.tlme highs, that 4,OO0,- 900 of HOOvcr'S unemployed have been absorbed Into private Indus- try, etc.

c. Do Jews believe in the principle of "Love Thy NeIgh- bor As Thyself?" Do they cd. here to Che Eye for An Eye and Tooth for . Tooth" sys. teIn?"
 A. This question was recent- ly brought Up by Father Coughlin who was eniphatically answered by leading Protestant, Catholic and Jewish clergymen. Prof. Frank Gavin of General Theological 6 em minary, New York, said: "The Jews were the first to teach the principle Love Thy Neighbo As Thyseif.' This instruction of Judaism was tho reason why Chrigt'S faith and ChriSt'B people brought . new measure of hope to humanity" The injunction, Love Thy Neighbor As ThyBelw is found in Leviticus io:ie. But the law of the Igraelites requires them not only to love their neighborB but also to love strangers in their midst. "The stranger that Soj0urneth with you shall Do unto you as the homesborn among you and thou shalt love him as myself" (Levlticus io:34) Another related law Is iE1 LoViticus 10:lT which says: "ghou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart"
 Regarding the rule, "An Eye for An Eye and . Tooth for Q Tooth" Prof. Louis pinklestein of Jewish Theological gemin. aSy, points out that this was interpreted to mean that who. ever has suffered . physical injury must be paid the full value of that injury. Tn thiS respect the civilized nations of the world have adopted this Jewish principle ag Q measure for damage done or injury in. fiicted.
