Wild Geese
BY Eleanor Dennis

A flock Of geese was flying low
Again the thick and binding snow
Their honking pierced the silent
gray
AS frantically they sought their
way.
A hunter saw them going by,
And raised his gun against the
sky.
I heard the sharp and quick re-
port,
And hated him who called ii
sport.

Bv FREDERICK SMITH

DAVIDSON, Jan. 23-From the
center of the stage that is China,
a Davidson graduate, DR.. Frank
w. Price, is watching a great
drama of history that is being en-
acted in the eastern country.
A professor in the Marking
Theological Seminary in the Chi
nese capital, DR.. Price is observing
ut first hand the amazing racial
and political movement that is
changing China, with her half mil
lion people, from a politically SUI
nine, almost defenseless nation, in
TO one of the worlds greatest
military powers. ready to defend
her boundaries against Japan and
all other aggressors.
In the same city is the amazing
General Chang Kai-sheck, direc-
tor of the Marking government,
and generalissimo Of China's $780,
000-man army. General Chang,
whose capture" and release in
December by Marshal Chang threw
China into turmoil, is the George
Washington Of this ancient coun.
try; his leadership and refusal to
bow to Japan are unifying behind
him the support of untold millions.
A recent letter to friends at
Davidson college, giving Prices
observations on the political situa-
ton in China, is one Of the clear
est expositions Of this rapidly
growing power in the cast this
writer has vet seen. Out of the
confusion Of news emanating from
China, his letter sums up clearly
what China is doing and intends to
do.
DR.. Price is one Of a noted mis-
sionary family. His father is DR..
Frank Price, who was last year
elected moderator of the Southern
Presbyterian church. Born in
China in 1895, DR.. Frank Price
finished Davidson in 1915. where
he made an enviable college rec

uuently for armed resistance. The
thoughtful leaders saw too well
what the consequences of military
action would be. Then came a PEE
riod of hopelessness and despair.
Now within the last few months
we have seen new spirit. China
is aroused. The government has
refused Japanese demands and has
even made counter-demands and

and the Japanese military men

PROVINCIAL CENTRAL
LEADERS COOPERATE
Leaders in the provinces and in
the national government are
thinking and planning together
reconstruct China within and pro-
tect China from hte outside forces
which would weaken and destroy
her. What has brought about this
new courage? Some would say
military preparedness, the military
training program for all citizens,
better plans for defense in the
air and on the coasts and the CO.
operation of military leaders. But
believe that an even greater fac
tor is China's growing conscious
ness of her unity and moral
strength.
The part which a few Christian
groups have had in encouraging
efforts toward unification and in
urging the government to take a
determined moral stand in inter-
national relations is a most inter-
esting story which some day may
be told. This strong stand may
lead to war with Japan-a pos
sible tragedy which is absent not
a day from our thoughts-but it
may also-and this we pray serve
to show Japan the power Of the
moral and spiritual forces opposed
to her imperialistic designs, and
so Dreyeflt war,
The new government policy is

THE MIRACLE FOR THE
HUNGRY (John s.


THE MIRACLE FOR THE
HUNGRY (John 81
The Hungry Multitude by the
Sea of Gahlee was miraculously
fed by the Great Provider. (D
The plying Christ saw the need.
1t was the time of the Passover,
about the middle of April in the
year 20. Late in the afternoon a
great multitude fingered around
Jesus in the desert place across
the sea from Capernaum. The
disciples must have felt alarm as
to what should be come of this
foodless, shelterless, CT o wd at
nightfall. Jesus demanded that
they should be fed and asked
Philip, a native of the neighbor-
hood, where food could be secur-
cd. Philip responded that hardly
a mouthful of bread for every one
could be secured with two hundred
pence, a penny being the usual
compensation for days labor in
the field. (2) The philanthropic
Christ utilized the supply. Mea-
ger was the quantity of food avail
able and it was reported to Jesus
by Andrew. A small boy had with
him five barley loaves resembling
our "hoecakes," and two small
dried or picked fishes about the
size of on sardines. So the boy
had only a boys meal; yet here
was more than five thousand peo-
pie to be fed! 81 The powerful
Christ wrought the miracle. At
the bidding of Christ the multi
tude was divided into companies
of fifty and hundred, and COM
manded to sit down on the abund-
ant grass in that locality. About
five thousand men thus seated
themselves; the women and chill
dren, far less numerous no doubt,
were placed separately. And now
before them stood Jesus with that
scanty stock of food in his hands.
After giving thanks, he distributed
with the aid of the disciples to all
as much as they wanted. The
libcrality that abundantly supplied
the need of a hungry multitude
was linked with an economy
which took care of the fragments.
These, according to Broadus,
were not crumbs made by the
eaters, but surplus of the pieces
into which Jesus and the disciples
had bttkcn the food. Eoch OF
the Twelve may have supplied
himself with a basket, and all of
these were. filled and doubtless1

Read John 5: / to 6: II. Study
John 5: 30; 6: SIS.
The healing of the infirm man
at Jerusalem and the feeding of
the five thousand beyond the Sea
of Galilee were two of the Lords
miracles oil mercy, and they pro-
duced contrasting effects.
The first aroused Judean OPP
position. Jesus was attending a
feast at Jerusalem. On the sab
bath he came to the Pool of Bethe-
soda, probably fed by an intermit-
tent spring, and found an invalid
of 3S years, among many afflicted
ones waiting for the curative
waters to be stirred. Jesus babe
hi intake up his bed and walk. He
obeyed. And this was what the
Jews criticized as a violation of
the sabbath. The Healer was ar
raigned before the Sanhedrin, and
probably from Judea under threat
Of death.
The second aroused Galilean
adulation. From Capernaum Jesus
withdrew across the Sea of Galilee
to the uninhabited district on its
northeastern shore. But the multi
tude followed by land around the
northern end of the sea, and late
in the afternoon there were sew
eral thousand still waiting upon
his ministry. He decided that they
must be fed before they were dis
missed. But all the resources at
hand were five barley cakes and
two little fishes. With the lads
meal, however, he satisfied the
seated thousands and the frag-
ments left over were enough to
fill IL baskets. At once the peo-
pie identified Jesus as the Mes
siah. and they tried by force to
make him their king.

The Infirm Man by the Pool of

Jerusalem at the right time. He

pools of the capital, Bethesda

reservoir was probably filled from
an intermittent spring still in ex-
istence and even yet believed to
have curative properties for rheu-
matism and other diseases. II was
the general opinion that the stir
ring in the water was caused by
an angel and that the first afflict-
ed person to stem into the water
