This lesson, planned in connec- ton with the International Tenn perance Sunday, puts the matter of temperance upon the broad founda- ton of right living in true rela- tionship with God and man in the self discipline inseparable from high character.
 First of all, there is the rela- tion of man to law. Law is the foundation of order in well- established society. It is designed to defend the rights and liberties of men against the encroachments of tyranny and against unjust in- terference from their fellow citizens, It defines crimes and establisnes penalties from the committing ot crimes. Crime in an ideal society Is anything that infringes on the the rights and liberties of members of a community.
 and order. As Roman citizen, he had, also, deep respect for Ro- man authority, insofar as 1t eStab- lished law as Q means of regulat- ing society.
 This letter to the Romans was written early in his Christian career. It may perhaps be said that he idealized some things that, in fact, were not quite so ideal as he sup posed.
 Later in his life, when he felt that he was being treated unjustly in Palestine, and appealed to Caesar, he discovered that in going to Rome, the source of authority he did not get the justice that he anticipated.
 As Q matter of fact, he lay fol a long time imprisoned in Rome without having his case brought tc trial. If one reads the later epistles of Paul, written during this period of his Imprisonment, one finds that Paul is not quite so sure that the powers that be are ordained of God On the contrary, he speaks of the rulers of the darkness of this world and of spiritual wickedness 1T high places (Ephesians 6:12). It is well to bear both these things in mind, for the true citi.

 EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT" will be the subject of the Lesson Sermon.
 The Golden Text is taken from Romans 1929: "Abhor that which is evil:. cleave to that which is good"
 Selections from the Bible include the following: "That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ i. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive our selves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faith full and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unright- eousness" q John l: 3, 8, O. Correlative readings from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scrip lures" by Mary Baker Eddy, in- clude the following citation from page 497, line g: We acknowledge Gods forgiveness of sin in the des- truction of sin and the spiritual understanding that casts out evil as unreal. But the belief in sin is punished so long as the belief lasts. :"

Tomorrow will be observed in the Catholic church; the Feast of All Saints. Coming as 1t does on Sum day, a holy day of obligation will be doubly observed. On this day all the saints of the church, those to whom no special feast day has been allotted, are cotnmemorated and recommended in the prayers of the faithful.
 Monday, the Feast of All Souls is observed, an important day of re- ligious worship, but not a holy day of obligation. On this day the souls of all the faithful departed are re- membered at mass, and the falthiul recommend those especially TOT whom they wish to pray.

-Weekly Sunday School Lesson LAW, LOVE, AND TEMPERANCE Devotional Rsaalnx: Romans u:Is-sl

zen has not only the spirit of obedi- ence to law, but he has the duty to see that laws are themselves just, honestly enforced, and maintained.
 It is part of true citizenship to protest against unjust laws, and to fight in every possible way against corruption in law and government.
 We are thus driven quickly in this matter of temperance and right living to more than mere conformity to law. There is the higher law of conscience, which asks, concerning every action, not, ''Is it lawful2" but, "Is 1t right?"
 Hence love is revealed as the true standard of right, for Paul insists, as Jesus also insisted in His teaching, that it is only in love of ones fellows that one can fulfull the moral law. Adultery, murder, theft, envy, all are of lenses against God. They are breaches of the law that one should love his neighbor as him. self.
 Paul makes superb exposition of this: Love worketh r.s evil to his neighbor." The man wia3 is de- termined to base his life upon love cannot possibly go wrong if his vision and judgment are as wise as his determination. What 8 fine ap- peal Paul makes to these Christians at Rome to walk becomingly. That in our English translation is a significant and beautiful phrase and Paul sums the whole thing up in one very explicit final word. If we put on the Lord Jesus Christ, we shall be saved from evil ways, and will find wisdom and strength to walk becomingly.

successors. St. Paul excluded women from all share in Litur- gical functions, forbidding them to teach q Tim. II, 12) or even to address the assembled faith full q Cor. XIV. 34,35).
 Deaconesses of the early, church were specially blessed, but they were never ordained. They maintained order in church among the women, in- structed them in the faith, and attended them at Baptism. They ceased to exist, however, by the Eight Century.
 Catholic women today are participating in the Catholic evidence guild movement by ex- plaining Catholic Doctrine to street corner and park audi ences.
 c. What is the relationship of Greek Catholics to the kUAu8u NBtWUAAC GMukCAS
 A. There are two classes of Greek Catholics, Orthodox and 'Uniat'. The first (ofncially, the Holy Orthodox Catholic Apost- olic Eastern Church., refers to the great group of ancient churches which are in commun- ion with each other, each one being organized under its own Patriarch. Their Liturgy is By- zantine rather than Latin. their ceremonies and many of their customs differ considerably from those of the Roman Church and they reject the supremacy of the Roman Pope.
 Tn many countries where the Orthodox Church exists, how ever, there are scattered groups called "Uniats" who do accept the supremacy of tue Pope and are in communion with the Roman Church but retain the Liturgy and usage of the ortho- dox Church.

Q. How many religious bodies are there in the United States?
 A. T. J. Murphy, director of the religious census, announces that he expects reports this year from 24O denominations. The last census, in 1926, showed 213 denominations. This increase in separate bodies is attributed in part to the springing up of a certain number of East Indian religious bodies in the country with Swami leaders and in part to splits in establishing bodies arising from a conservative-lib- eral division.

Ham RESIGNS
ASC.C. HEAD
Penney Co. Manager Ac-
cepts Offer to Operate
Maryland Store

E. w. Ham, president of the
HenderSonville Chamber of Com
merce and manager of the j. c.
Penney Co. store here since Ccto-
Der, 1929. has accepted an offer
by the company to take over the
Penney store at Pocomoke, Md,
and with Mrs. Ham and their
small son, Johnnie, will leave late
next week for their new home.
Mr.. Ham said his resignation
as head of the Chamber of Com
merce will be submitted to dlrec-
tors at once. No indication has
been given as to who may succeed
him either in this office or as
manager of the store.
Pocomoke is a city of the APP
proximate size of Hendersonville
on the eastern shore of Maryland
and was the home of the Hams
for a year Immediately before
they came to Hendersonville.
While the Maryland city is no lar
ger than Hendersonville, the vol
ume of business done by the Pen
ney store there is greater, and the
proposition made to Mr., Ham to
return was much more attractive
than the contract which ne has
held here.
Mr.. Ham voiced deep regret at
the prospect of leaving. Hender-
sonville, saying: eve had rather
live here than any place we know
of but the offer of advancement
could not we'll be rejected" .
Besides serving as president OF
the Chamber of Commerce, Mr..
Ha mhas been president of the
Rotary club and an active partic-
ipant in almost all local civic prof.
ects. He and Mrs. Ham are mem
bers of the Presbyterian church,
and he has served as a director OF
the First Federal Building and
Loan association since it was or
ganized about two years ago.
