o: Is there any place in the Bible where the location of Heav. en, Hell or Purgatory Is given or even suggested?
 A. No. The interest of the bible Is in the moral and religious sig. nificance and meaning of Heaven and Hell and not in the location.
 o: What is the attitude of the states toward religious instruction in the public schools.
 A. The general tendency is to keep all specifically religious in- struction, defined as sectarian in. struction, out of taX-supported schools. That this policy, how ever. deos not represent any stable equilibrium as between conflicting religious opinions is evidenced by the fact that, although some states prohibit regular Bible read- ing in the schools, others expressly require 1t. Tn one state ten verses e day must be read to the pupils.

Samuel: Spiritual Revival
Text: I Samuel 7.s-ls

and when Israel was put in a posi- ton of fear and bondage, one can appreciate the meaning of this great deliverance.
 And the lesson Is not far to seek. Moral discipline and moral charac- ter is the ultimate strength of na. tons and peoples as 1t is of individ- uals.
 A nation may seem to flourish in greed and corruption and disregard of justice, truth and right. But the downfall inevitably and surely comes, while just as truly and inevi- tably righteousness exals . nation and c people.

 Tn the crisis of the defeat of the Israelites by the Philistines and the carrying away of the Ark of the Covenant with the tragic death of Ell there comes as the savior of the people the man whose devout mother, Hannah, had dedicated him as c babe to the service of the tenn pie.
 Samuel struck at the very roots of the trouble in Israel. He did not be- gin by amassing Q great army, but he began first of oil by attacking the moral condition of the people. He urged them that, with all their hearts, they should put away the foreign gods from them and the base and corrupting forms of idola- trous worship, and that they should serve the Lord of Israel.
 The people responded to his ap- peal, and then 1t was that Samuel gathered them together and began tomarshai them for the victory that they were ultimately to attain He called all the people together ct Mig pah, and there, with the ritual prac- tice of drawing water and pouring 1t forth on 0 day of fasting, he con- fessed the sins of the people.
 Samuel became, by strength of personality and moral conviction, the judge of Israel. Word of the massing together of the people at Mizpah came to the Philistines, and they came up against the people whom they had conquered.
 It was trying time for Samuel. Would his leadership suffice? Could he inspire the fearstricken 1sraelites with the will and the power to resist the Philistines9
 Tn the presence of the people, Samuel performed sacrificial rite and at the same time prayed ear- nestly for the deliverance of Israel. There came e great laundering, and the Philistines-fear.s and discomfited-went down before the aroused people of Israel. New heart and courage took hold of the 1srae- lites, and they pursued the Philis- tines, whom they had feared so greatly.
 It was in the hour of this great victory that Samuel took Q stone and set it up as @ monument be- tween Mizpah and Shen, calling it Ebenezer, signifying that hitherto the Lord had helped the people.
 The closing verse of our lesson is very significant. It tells how the Philistines were subdued and came no more within the border of Israel. When one measures against that the defeat of the time of Eli, when the Ark of the Covenant was captured
