Golden text: Az for IN" and my
house. we will serve the Lord
Joshua % 10.
Joshua made his choice Of loyal
ties as a spy from the wilderness,
as the conqucror Of Canaan, and
as the leader o. his people IN their
covenant oi service to Jehovah.
Joshua was one of the II spies
sent out from kadcsh-Barnca to
search the land Of Canaan with Il
view to It's capture. They went
and SAW and returned and re-
ported, But Joshua and Caleb
were in the minority. They urged
Israel to go forward; they bcllcv-
ed in God and his people; but for
their interest they exposed them
selves to popular wrath and came
near being stoned. As 4 result,
Israel fell back in the wilderness
for more than 81 years IN Fact,
till all the warriors were dead
save these two faithful spies.
At last Israel reached the Plains
Of Moab. east of Jordan, and the
10 years of wilderness wandering
were over. Thence Moses ascend
ed Mount Ncbo where he died in
ecstasy. He was succeeded by
Joshua who received from God
his orders to invade Canaan.
1t was perhaps - years after
the invasion of Canaan and IS
years after the conquest, that
Joshua calling together the elders
Of Israel, possibly at his home in
Timnath- Scrah. addressed them in

LOYALTY IN COVENANT

The Cali to Covenant came
/, through Joshua and showed his
loyalty in the covenant of conse-
crtion. At the ripe age Of 40
Joshua called together the heads
Of the people. 1t was perhaps at
his residence in Mount Ephraim
that he warned them against COM
promise with the heather nations
vet in the land. 1t was at
Shcchcm, where the bones of
Joseph were buried, that under
his stirring example and appeal
the people renewed their cove
nant to worship and serve .Jc-
hovah alone This covenant was
creditably kept during the days of
Joshua and of the elders who
survived him. 1D 1t was IA cove

Choose him in preference to any
god and all gods in Egypt. Ca

him Individually. in families, and

Gov. Hoey said, "ani while | be-

we need not be afraid-in North

view what is being done with the
revenues. For instance, at the
turn Of the century the state APP

whereas now we spend $25, 0OO,-
900 a year for education advan-
tages. In 1900 the average school

advantage of a minimum term of
eight months. Then there were

there were 6,7l2 pupils in high

We haul more pupils to school
