TOPIC-Sharing What We Have.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT
TOPIC-Providing for the Needs Of All.
My God shall supply all your
need according to his riches in glory
by Christ Jesus" CPhn 4:19. Such
is the assurance of Gods Word.
Countless Christians have proved it
to be true that they may trust God
to supply every need-temporal or
spiritual
The lesson for today first presents
the disciples as they had come back
from their preaching expedition and
presented to the Lord Jesus a re-
port Of their stewardship in minis
tering the bread of life to the spir-
itually needy. He invites them to
place apart from the busy walks
Of daily life for a time of COM
munion and rest. The multitude
would not be denied, however, and
follow our Lord to the desert place.
Having taught them, Jesus has op-
portunity to instruct His disciples
in the important ministry Of supply
ing for those in need the bread for
their bodies.
1. The Ministry of the Bread Of
Life.
Reports Of accomplishments in
the field Of Christian work, (al-
though sometimes an earnest ac-
counting of stewardship Of service
and money are all too often pre-
pared for the purpose of impressing
men and seeking their financial as
sistance. The real report is the
one which disciples make to their
Lord. 1t concerns two vital points.
l. What they had done" ". 30).
One of the temptations which face
the preacher and teacher of Chris
tian truth is to avoid unpleasant
and difficult problems by simply
proclaiming the truth and doing
nothing about the outworking of that
truth in daily living. II sounds very
pious to say that we will present
the Word and let it do its own work,
but the Christian worker who
evades his duty to deal at close
grips with sin and disorder in the
church and community has not dis
charged his responsibility to Christ.
2. What they had taught" ". 30).
The second temptation Of the
preacher is TO follow the specious
reasoning Of the modernist who says
that 1t does not matter what a man
believes, it is what he does that
counts. The foundation of Christian
character is Christian doctrine,
therefore the disciple of Christ must
know what to teach.
ii. The Ministry Of Daily Bread.
Jesus found no rest, for the null
titudes followed Him to the other
side Of the lake. Ere long the eve
ming approaches, and the disciples
begin to be concerned about how
this great multitude is to be fed
They follow the inclinations Of the
flesh and decide to solve the prob
lem by asking Jesus to
/. 'Send them away" ". 36).
The church has followed their ex-
ample in dealing with the social
problems Of the people down
through the years. The result is
that being denied fellowship, COM
fort, and help by a church which
was too busy building up a vast or
ganization or a beautiful order of
worship, the common people have
re" led to the a"7eal Of political

Gulf of Carpentaria Is
One of Loneliest Seas

~AS IA AOAACAASoA SS0o
The moody Gulf Of Carpentaria,
on Australia's northern coastline,
due south of New Guinea, is one of
the loneliest seas. Usually the gulf
is calm, the heat tempered by cool
ing winds. But in blazing summers
the water heaves in great swells,
forecasting a cyclone, and then old
sailors recall that this gulf has been
known throughout the seven seas as
the graveyard Of ships"
There are strange features about
this vast gulf, states Sydney, Aus
tralia, correspondent in the New
York Times. 1t has only one tide
each "a hours. And at night its wa
ters glow more vividly than any 9TH
er waters. Nowhere else, it is said,
are those minute marine organisms
known as plankton, which give this
phosphcrescent light, so plentiful
as they are in the Gulf Of Carpen-
taria.
At night, in fine weather, the wa
ters show all colors. Every wave,
every ripple, is marked with lines
Of light-milk-white, blue and pink,
the gleamings of tiny creature no
bigger than a pins head. The sea
is full Of moving points of light.
Scattered about the gulf are many
islands, romantic, little known. One
is Sweers island. which many years
ago was the site of a fourishing
settlement owing its existence TO
yellow fever. In the early 1865 two
sailors arrived at Burketown dying
with yellow fever. AS the dread
malady hit others in the town, the
population fed, most of it to Sweers
island, where it lived for years be-
fore returning home.

leaus:S who .,-.e srovi~ed SUBJ
stitute for what the church should
have given them.
Serious thoughts are these. II will
not do for US to "send them away"
from the church empty hearted and
empty handed. Our Lord says
2. Give ye them to eat" ". SD.
Reckoning hastily on what a small
boy had brought for his lunch (trust
an alert boy to be readyD, the dis
eiples soon demonstrate that it is
impossible to feed this great throng.
Logic is such a devastating thing
when it operates apart from faith
in God. They were absolutely right
in their reasoning and in their cal
culations, but they had forgotten the
one factor that really counted. Jesus
was there. and Jesus is God, and
God is omnipotent.
3. He commanded and they
did all eat" ". 80, 42).
When God speaks all the imita-
tons of the finite disappear, and the
needs of men are fully met-with
twelve baskets full of fragments"
left over!
Note the orderly manner in which
our Lord met this situation. Five
thousand men, with women and
children to swell the throng, were
seated on the grass. Jesus took the
loaves and fishes and blessed them.
You who forget to return thanks at
the table, notice that quiet and mean
ingful act Then He broke the loaves
and divided the fishes. No doubt
they were multiplied as the dis
ciples passed them out to the people.
God is able to do that very thing
even in our day. Not perhaps in
just the same manner, but surely
those who serve Him have mar
veled as they have seen that little
is much when God is in it." Let
those who labor in difficult places
with limited resources take heart
and trust God.

Gloomy autumn weather and

but delaying until the football
schedule had maintained its record
of fine weather for Saturday at
ternoons, descended TO the total of
.46 inches overnight and until

The high temperature reported

degrees. 1t was So degrees at noon
today and the low for last night
was so degrees.
With return of this normal

ians were bemoaning the immin-
enee of fall, the leaves-removing
rain and the dearth of the bright
foliage which marked Connecticut
hills during the past three weeks
Of unseasonal warmth.
Matters of plumbing repairs,
adjustment of furnace, heaping in
II fuel, engaged the average
householder today. Thoughts OF
fur coats and winter apparel for
ID children, too, caused heavier

Preparation for winter got I'M

Baldwin, G. O. P. Can
didate, Charges Devised
for Political Patronage

Bridgeport, Conn.,, Oct. 24-(UP)
Raymond z. Baldwin, Republican
candidate for governor, charged to-
day Democrats were making high
way safety "a matter OF political
patronage"
Baldwin assailed the present
method OF semi-annual motor We
hicle inspections, asserting many
machines were "doctored up" just
before inspection on the various
lanes throughout Connecticut.
There are between 30 and 100
political appointees, headed by the
governors son, who are making the
Inspections" Baldwin said.
"These inspections are casual,
perfunctory matters. The budget
for the inspection department Is
$3.50. 900, but the sum Of $4,000
has been collected from the motor
lists In fees.
Everybody knows that an auto
mobile can be doctored up Just to
get through the inspection lanes.
The statistical summary OF traffic
accidents In Connecticut, published
by the motor vehicle department,
demonstrates that accidents caused
by effectively equipped automobiles
have increased since inspection be-
gan, rather than decreased.
IT am in favor Of any reasonable
thing that can be done to promote
highway safety. I believe, however,
that we can spend the automobile
owners money to much better adj
vantage in promoting highway
safety than by the present method"
