SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
By Rev. Charles E. Dunn

The Son of God Becomes Man.
Lesson for Jan. 3rd. John 1:1-1S.
Golden Text: John 1:14.
During the first quarter of the
new year we shall be studying St.
Johns gospel which DR.. Gadman
called the greatest religious docu-
ment ever written. Certainly it is
the best loved book of the Bible.
John was the youngest of the
twelve disciples, and a beloved fav-
orite of his Master. Strong and deep
in nature he was called a "son of
thunder.' He stood with Jesus in
the judgment hall; he was present
at the Gross, where the Lord COM
mitted to him the care of Mary;
he came first to the tomb on Easter
Day, outrunning Peter; and was the
first to recognize the risen Lord at
the Sea of Tiberias. Later he be-
came a venerable, lovable Christian
leader in Ephesus.
A beautiful story is told of Johns
farewell to the Ephesian brethren
Too old to walk, he was carried in
the arms of his disciples into the
midst of their assembly, repeating
continually, "Little children, love
one another"
The good news as written by
John represents the loving recollec-
lions of an old mar recalling vivid
ly the overwhelming experiences Of
a youth spent in close friendship
with the Lord of Life.
Consider this gospels striking
simplicity. Its sentences are gener.
ally short, John never argues. HI
Carolina watchman. [volume] (Salisbury, N.C.) 1871-1937, 1937-01-01

always affirms, and his affirmations
are couched in brief sentences, crisp
and pointed.
Note, too, how fond John is of
symbols and allegory. The miracle,
to him are signs and tokens of spir-
itual power. And just as revealing
names are attached to the figure,
crowding the anvas of Bunyan's
immortal "Pilgrim's Progress" SO
John attaches titles of wondrous
beauty to Jesus. He is called the
bread Of life, the Good Shepherd,
the door, the vine.
And there are certain appealing
words John loves to repeat, such
as 81 am" "believe," 'life," Eight"
ssloye."

beginning. Here was Nature in rebellion, a rugged defiance of the petty business of man. She loved its cliffs, theatrically highlighted at dawn. She loved to watch the vel vety, purple blankets pulled slowly up over the same cliffs and the can- yons at nightfall. At all hours she loved to ride horseback in the wild erness there.
 She had named her horse Chief tain. He wasn't beautiful horse - he was all her dad could afford but he was presentable. By feed ing him aprons full of especially rich grass, by rubbing his coat persist ently, Carolee had groomed good- looking mount. Carolee was adept at making things pretty,
 She was pretty herself when she mounted Chieftain and started down the Golfer family had camped on a mesa edge 5000 feet up-circling and see-sawing back and forth to reach a level where she could cut over to the highway that skirts the north side of the mountain. She sang and hummed constantly, so exhilarting was her morning ride today. She was even whistling when she turned one of the hairpin curves in the road and came face to face with two other horsemen. Because of the whistling she was embar- rassed. One of the other riders, she saw, was girl.
 Hello, Carolee called casually then, "Oh, hello, MT. Blake! I cer- tainly didn't recognize you at first!"
 We'll" exclaimed he. This IS something! Miss Golfer! How are you? And where are you now? You dropped out of my sight entirely, and girls don't ordinarily do that, after saving my life!"
 The other girl gave loud and exaggerated cough, then spoke.
 Well, good morning everybody! I'm just the hostler with this party, but the riddles have got me curious. How are you, my dear? I'm Mira Blake, sister to this dull-witted OK who never introduces people. Isn't 1t a lovely morning, and aren't"
 "Ninap Stuart interrupted. I'm sorry! But was going to introduce you two. was just so elated to find Miss Golfer, and so surprised at finding her here"
 There, there, old thing, I'm not blind. Or as dumb as some of the family. How do you do, Miss Golfer? Father mentioned you And Stuart positively has done nothing
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-06-28

l, boy and the girl turned in their saddles to study the wild panorama. It was, somehow, strange.
 I'm not not just sure where we are," Carolee said.
 Well, now that you mention it, I haven't been sure for several min- utes," Stuart laughed little. Per haps we should start back, or at least locate the trail again."
 It was a sensible suggestion, but it didn't work out so well. Neither of them was accustomed to wilder ness riding. They hadn't watched their way. They had looked at dis tances without noting definite land marks nearby. And, too, boy and girl, riding together are likely to be instrospective, lively to be rather conscious of each other. It must have been well past noon when Carolee confessed definitely, how ever.
 For the first time in my life" she said, a little nervously, I'm actually lost. And I'm hungry as bear" She laughed, but it wasn't convincing.
 Stuart didn't laugh. He was re- membering the tragedies that had occurred in Superstition, the deaths from thirst, and the peo- pie who had just disappeared.
 The news stories that he had called Hokum began to swarm back now, and settle down in his consciousness like so many vul- lures.

going wasn't easy but the horses were used to mountain slopes. They had left the trail entirely. The riders didn't speak for time, so engrossed were they in the scenery. One turn revealed gap through which they could see Squaw Peak 50 miles away, and unidentified ranges even beyond. Great majesties of distance-dis- tance-a new conception of it im- pressed both of them as their horses moved on at free rein.

The highest peak in Superstition Mountain towers slightly more than 5000 feet. This is not a stereotyped mountain with one central point. It Is more of table when viewed from Phoenix. Close up, the table top is saw-toothed in silhouette; between points is dangerous jungleland. Hikers there often must crawl through thicket tunnels that wild animals have made. Over it turks a constant eerie haze which adds credence to the mystery legends, enhances its primeval beauty.

CORDOvA SCHOOL SEEKS NURSE
 PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENT

In a recent letter from Dr. ". w. Council, territorial commissioner of health, Superintendent A. J. West all of the Cordoya schools was auth orized to receive applications for a temporary community nurse, states a recent issue of the Cordova Times
 The territorial department of health has for some time been en- deayoring to secure nurses who have had special training in the field of community nursing for the Alaskan towns but as this field has been stressed in the recent health service activities all over the United States under the Social Security act, very few if any nurses with such training are available. So far in the territory, according to Mrs. Cauth- orne of the department of health, but four communities have been supplied with such nurses.
 There has been $500 allocated to Cordova for this service. The nurse selected will be paid at the rate of $15O a month. AS the department of health is trying to secure special ly prepared women for this service any nurse selected now will be eln- ployed on a temporary basis subject to be replaced at such time that the department is able to secure a per manent nurse.
 MT. Westall states that he is anx- ious to get this service started as soon as possible because of the cpl demic of chickenpox and a few cases of whooping cough, and to check up on the usual health matters that come up in school.
 While but a small portion of the nurses time will be spent in the school and under the direction of the school authorities, this part of her work will be one of the more im- portant duties performed by her. The remainder of her duties will be de- termined by the local health coun- cil under the guidance of the terri torial department of health.
