Recreational facilities in Ohio
are varied. For those desiring
lake breezes. there are many re-
sorts along the shores of Lake
Erie: for those who want the
beauty of the hills. southeastern
Ohio will satisfy that desire; and
in order to really see Ohio, il is
necessary to spend some time Wis
ting all the larger cities; the fer
tile fields in the country; the Ohio
river and its bcuatics: and many
of the smaller towns. Fishing is a
popular sport in the state. Some
small game hunting is done IN
southern Ohio. One Of the most
beautiful rides by automobile is
along the Old National highway
GU. S. No. 400 from Wheeling,
w. Va. to Columbus. I'm many
spots the old covered bridges used
in the days of stage coaches are
much in evidence.

tn nativc-born whites, o. per

whites. ITO per cent, ard among
the negroes, ca per cent. Educa-

Federal Land Grant. There are
80 other institutions of higher
learning in Ohio, which include
two other state universities: Ohio
University at Athens and Miami

four state normal schools. One of
the oldest colleges in Ohio, and
perhaps west of the Alleghanics,

New Concord, which celebrated its

If there be one place, let me say
it to the church, where we should
put our best efforts forward for
Christ, it should be with the young

Christ.

THE VICTORY AT Pencil
Genesis 32)

There is the Blessing of Power
at Pencil, "Thc Face of God. "
Note CD the peril of the pilgrim,
When the angels met him, Jacob
knew that God had not forgotten
him. But now he was approach
ing the territory occupied by Esau
and his injured brother was still
intensely hostile to him. With a
band of four hundred men, indeed
he was coming TO meet the sup
planter. This news filled the
camp and caravan of Jacob with
the utmost CONSERVATION. His own
spirit may have wavered. But he
fell at the throne of grace and
uttered a most earnest prayer.
Then he sought to propitiate his
angered brother with train Of
valuable gifts. But to provide
against any emergency, he divid-
ed his household into two COM
panics, so that if one should be
destroyed the other might escape.
They were on the banks of the
Jabbok, an eastern tributary of
the Jordan, some miles above
Jericho. The presents for Esau
had been sent over, but for time
Jacob and the company remained
on the north side of tn brook. But
during tn night, after a slight rest
for the flocks and the household,
Jacob arose and started them over
the brook and on the anxious
march to meet Esau. Note (2) the
wrestling with the angel. Possibly
Jacob remained behind from no
higher motive than to see his fam
lily safely across the brook or to
be sure that nothing valuable was
left. Contrary to our ordinary
view, he seems not to have been
now especially in a mental frame
for prayer. On the other hand
he may have had absolute conf
dence in the success of his plans
Well he knew his impetuous bro
Their and how to reach him! But
there was Force to reckon with
which he was too much ignoring
SO as he stood on the bank OF
Jabbok, there came to him in the
darkness a mysterious Person anc
wrestled with him till the break
ing of day. That he resisted wa!
evidence of his self-confiden'
feeling; that the angel did not a
once overcome him was a matter
of grace and discipline. Finally
however, it was necessary thai
Jacob should be wounded before
brought to a just recognition o.

By HIGHT c. MOORE

the Wrestler. A mere touch was
sufficient. and the strongest
sinew in Jacobs body gave way
and Shriveled beneath it. Then
Jacob was aroused, not to wrath,
but to his utter dependence. He
now realized that if he ever gain
ed victory or inherited Canaan,
it would be not by his own wits or
energies, but by the gift of Jeho-
yah. Thus it was that he changed
from wrestling to clinging; now
the angel asked to be released,
but the earnest patriarch declar-
ed: 81 will not let thee go except
thou bless me-" SO at last the
channel of blessing opened; the
ambitious, self-reliant spirit of
the supplanter, was conquered
and be depended solely upon God.
1t was Il crisis in his career and
fittingly it was marked by a
change in his name. Freely he
confessed that heretofore he had
deserved the name of Jacob the
deceiver; now, in view of his pow
CT from God, won not by physical
strength but by spiritual depend
encc, he was given the royal name
of Israel, a friend with God.
Though the name was withheld,
well he knew now who the Wrest-
Ter was. And in the name of the
sacred spot WIS perpetuated the
memory of its memorable scene:

Iniirm and blind, Isaac at 1877
years of age determined to bestow
the patriarchal blessing upon his
favorite son, Esau, then II years
of age. Overlooking the proposal,
Retekah contemplated in order
that her favOritc son, Jacob,
might win the coveted benediction
instead of his twin brother. The
deception involved in her plan was
uniustifiablc but it was turned in
to the current of the divine pur-
pose and so was overru!ed for the
good of the millions yet to be.
However, the promoters of the
scheme had to suffer the penalty
of separation and exile. The an
ger of Esau threatened the life of
Jacob and there was safety only
in a wide and long separation. 80
Jacob in the vigor of his manhood
set out with the blessing of his
parents toward Haran, the home
of Rcbekah's kindred and once
the residence of Abraham. Since
BeerSheba, the home of Isaac, was
the southern outpost of Canaan
about so miles south of Jerusa-
lem, the journey of Jacob covered
n distance of about $50 miles.
The only stopping place of inter-
est along the way was Bethel, oz
miles northward from Beershcba.
THE vow AT BETHEL
Genesis 2S)
There is the Blessing of Revcla-
ton at Bethel "The House OF
God" Note Cd the vision. The
down-flashing Of glory came up
on the sleeping traveller. First,
he saw the shining stairway con-
Meeting earth and heaven. Then
he beheld the radiant angels on
the line Of communication. SO
while the vision of the ladder
showed that there was connection
between earth and heaven, the
vision of htc angels upon 1t re-
vealed the fact of intercommunl-
cation. But the greatest wonder
of all was the ineffable glory OF
God himself browning the ma
iestic scene. And the vision of
deity identified with the God of
Abraham and of Isaac reached It's
elimination in the fivcfold prom
Use to the sleeping pilgrim: The
promise of the land of Canaan for
his descendants; the promise OF
national greatness; the promise
of Carthwidc blessing through
him and his posterity; the prom
Use of personal protection on his
long journey; the promise of Saiee
return i'm due time to his OLD
home. 1t is no wonder that JACOB
was overcome, aroused, and 1llied
with awe. Note (2) the vow.

Jacob changed into an altar the
