The miracles that we have studied in the lessons thus far have sym- bolized the power of Jesus to give life, to heal, and to bring light to the darkened souls of men. Here in our lesson we come to the ultimate miracle of the power of Jesus over death, the miracle attested in His own death and resurrection.
 It is a very human story that is presented, of two sisters in Bethany, Martha and Mary, who were very unlike in their dispo- sitions, but had in common loyalty to the Master and love for him that made Him an hon. ored guest in their home.
 Into this home sorrow had come in the death of their brother, and the deep sympathy of Jesus. as well as His intense devotion to that hospitable home, is found in the simple words concerning His com- ing into the house of death-"Jesus wept". In the division into verses in our English Bible, it is the short est verse of all; yet it is full of expression and significance.
 The story of how Jesus brought Lazarus forth from the tomb is familiar to us all. It brings to every thoughtful and in- quiring mind some very poignant questions. Why did Jesus weep. if He had the power to bring Lazarus from the dead? Why was the power of Jesus not exercised in more homes and circles of sorrow in His own day?
 There must have ben many, many cases of bereaved disciples, and yet the stories of Jesus bringing the dead to life are few. Why is the same power of Jesus not manifest in homes of death and sorrow today, where the devotion to the Master is as intense as it was in that home where Martha and Mary loved Him?
 
 These questions we cannot an- swer, any more than we can ex-

Mind" will be the subject of the Lesson Sermon.
 The Golden Text is from Proverbs 3:5: Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding"
 Bible readings include the follow ing from Job 28: l, 2, F, 20, 23: Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold where they find it. Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is motion out of the stone. But where shall wisdom be found? and where is the place of understanding? God under standeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof"
 Selections from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, include the following: "The time has come for a finite conception of the infinite ard of a material body as the seat of Mind to give place to diviner sense of intelligence and its manifesto tions,-to the better understanding that Science gives of the Supreme Being, or divine Principle, and idea. All is infinite Mind and it's infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-alr" (p.285:17; p.468:10-11o

, plain the miracle. The nationalist might say that these stories have come from traditions that arose around the life of the Master, as they have arisen in some form around the lives of other great teachers and prophets. .... But we cannot dispose of the miracle quite so easily. The miraculous records are imbedded in the story of wonderful life, and one cannot feel that the life and salvation that Jesus brings to men have their ending in death and the tomb.
 We have suggested that the miracles beyond the literal record have the symbolism of spiritual truth, and this is surely true con- corning the miracle of restoring the dead to life. That is what Jesus does spiritually in the souls of men. His recreating and reviving power has everywhere been manifest, both in the days of His life on earth, and all the years since, in the times and places where His gospel has made its power felt.
 
 In His earthly life and teaching, Jesus never promised His dis ciples immunity from pain and sorrow; He never told them that they would have unlimited physical existence. What He did promise was that eternal life would be the portion of those who found in Him the Way and the Truth.

"Blank Day.. proposed by cal-. endar reform advocates for the reason that 1t will upset the tra- ditional fixity of the Sabbath. For the Jews this opposition is by no means based on merely ecclesiastical grounds nor is it solely inspired by Rabbinical opinion. u is shered by the whole body of Jewry and is based upon the positive com mandment of the Decalogue, "six days shalt thou labor and do all thy work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath"
 Jewish spokesmen assert that the Blank Day" scheme, if adopted, would spell ruin to mil- lions of conscientious Jews throughout the world to whom Sabbath observance has in mod ern times already become an in- creasingly difficult task. Under the new system the Sabbath would fall on a different day each year which means that the observant Jew would not be able to arrange his business or his condition of employment in or- der to observe that day. Observ- ant Jews would conseuently be faced with the dilemma of ei7 ther violating their conscience or suffering economic hardship.
 o. Why do Catholics receive Communion under one kind only?
 A. A Catholic spokesman re- plies: There are several reasons for this disciplinary law of the church: the risk of spilling the precious blood; the difficulty of reserving Communion under the species of wine; the dread of drinking from a chalice touched by infected lips; and the cost of obtaining wine for thousands of communicants.
 The present law of receiving Communion under the form of bread dates from the Council of Constance in 1414. which condemned the Hussites of Be- hemia for teaching that the cup was absolutely necessary. This law was confirmed by the Council of Trent.
 Catholics believe that, in re- ceiving Communion. they re- ceive not only the Body of Jesus Christ under the form of bread, but His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. Were any doctrine in- volved. no difficulty would have prevented the church from in- sisting upon the observance of a divine law. but Christ did not prescribe any special mode of Communion. As it involved merely q question of discipline. the church was ever ready. to adapt her laws for their admin istration to the changing condi- tinns of the times.

MUSEUM PROVES DRAWING CARD.
Children Attending Matta- tuck Exhibits Are on
 Increase

Total attendance at the Water bury Childrenis Museum, located in the Mattatuck Historical society building and directed by Joseph Anthony, a member of the WPA cational and recreational stan, , is now listed at 5,O75. The local di- rector also reported that each month the number of children who visit the museum after school increases.
 His attendance figures since the start of the current school year are as follows: October 19 to November 19, 1898 visitors; November 20 to December 21, Q total of 1,704 vis- itors; during the Christmas holi- days, 153 visitors; from January 5 to the present date, 2,250 visitors. A glance at the number of grammar school and first and second year high school students who frequent the museum afternoons seems to in- dicate that nature and its mysteries have a decided appeal for Water bury youngsters.
 MT. Anthony also reported that several of the individual grammar school groups have shown a per- centage increase in connection with attendance. Croft school, with an increase of A per cent since the start of the year, is first in this re- spect.
 Starting March at the Chil- dren's Museum, the director will start club program. Interest has run so high in the museum that several clubs such as an insect, mineral, and bird clubs will be formed. It is even possible that some of the more learned pupils will call themselves the "Young Biologists" of the Junior Fauna Society,""
