limelight acquire almost mania for
more limelight. Most theatrical quar-
rels are ove' this question. A passion
for publicity possesses them.
Note how differently the really
great behave, as shown by the conduct
of Christ. At the apex of His prestige
He fled from the crowds into the
desert places. He knew the spiritual
perils of praise and popularity, so He
was true to His own invariable spir-
itual standard: THE Father Who
seeth in secret" He could treat both
triumph and disaster as imposters, in
the serene knowledge that He that
judgeth me is the Lord" Woe to the
worker who has no surer test of sue
cess than the tickle multitude's ap-
plause! And doubly woe to the busy
and successfLl person who knows not
the art of rctreating far from the
worlds noisy eel oes to the quiet Of
communion with God.
Another noteworthy fact about the
behavior Of Jesus In the midst OF His
popularity, with a city going wild over
Him, was that He deliberately turned
His back on it all and made healing
tour of the towns and villages of
Galilee. True, there were ALI the sick
He could serve in Capernaum, but His
mission called for the creation of foci
OF interest and service in as many
places as possible. His call was to
the whole world. Had He waited I'M
til all the need in Capernaum was
met, He would never have passed out
side the city gates. This whole phase
OF the life of Jesus is a study in eff
cheney and statecraft. Afoot, in the
lowliest fashion, moving from village
to village, and dependent upon local
hospitality always. the Master made a
model medical missionary itineration.
He Couldn't Help Helping.
At home in Capernaum, or abroad
throughout Galilee at this time, Jesus
gave Himself without stint to a min
istry of healing This He did, not
merely to advertise His mission, but
also because of His unwearied COM
passion for individuals. Matthew
quotes. in this connection. the fulfill
ment Of 1saiah's word, Himself took
our infirmities and bare our diseases"
Freely translated, that means that
He suffered with every sufferer He
met.
A sort Of audacity of helpfulness
marked the manner of the Master.
Thus. He even touched the untouch-
able leper with His own hand. To
get the force Of that, one must have
had personal observation of the re-
pulsiveness Of lepers. I have seen
leprosy in Palestine. in India, in China
and in Japan. and 1 ask no diviner
token of the character of the earthly
Christ than that He touched the leper
and healed him.
Not until later did His world really
understand anything Of Jesus as a
Redeemer and Messiah: all they knew
of Him was His helpfulness and His
words of wisdom. Because He min
istered to them, for a period the pop
ulace crowned Him with all their
crowns.

German FieLdMarshal Von Blomberg Angry
Nothing to Say About Storm Caused in Official Circles Over His Marriage Germany COnfscates
 Foreign Newspapers

with an occasional laugh translated parts of the stories about himself into German for his wife.
 After luncheon, he and his wife went for a stroll. He waved away newspapermen who tried to ap- proach, saying angrily:
 Leave me alone. have nothing to say" He was dressed in gray flannel suit and wore a cap.
 He did not inform the hotel how long he intends to stay.
 Newspapers Confiscated
 Berlin, Feb. 4 - (U.P) = News dealers reported today that all newspapers coming from France were confiscated today, including the Paris edition of the New York Herald Tribune and that the Daily Telegraph and News Chronicle of London were confiscated also.
 Secret police, who usually upon request give the reason for such conf1scations, would not admit to- days seizures had anything to do with the retirement of Marshal Werner Won Blomberg as war min ister. They merely said: nothing Is known of the conf1scations."
 The feeling among well informed persons today was that the hkeli- hood was increasing that Colonel General Wilhelm Goering, air min ister and four-year plan director, might assume position of consid- erable power in the army even if he did not become war minister.
 Many Wild Rumorg
 There were rumors of many sorts, and of wild irnprobability, as to the situation here. Informed sources still insisted that the repercussions to Baron Won Blomberg's prospec- tive retirement were of limited scope, however.
 It was reported that Fuehrer Adolf Hitler still had not decided on Blombergs successor.
 The possibility was mentioned that there might be no new war minister for the present but that the Army, Navy and Air Forces might be administered under their respective commanders in chief. Blomberg, as war minister, was commander in chief of the com- bined fighting services.
 Hitler conferred with army and Nad party men today, apparently still seeking way to solve the war ministry situation.
 Well informed sources expressed belief that a decision would be made and a clarifying communique issued probably before Sunday.
