(The International Uniform Lesson
on the above topic for December 3 is
Matthew 10, the Golden Text being
Revelations 22:17, And let him that
heareth say. Gomez
JESUS CALLED His disciples to
Him and sent them on their way to
preach the gospel to the Jews. mot
to the Samaritans, and not to the
Gentiles' He said, but to the ''lost
sheep of the children of Israel"
1t is interesting to learn what we
can Of the character Of these men
who had left all and followed Jesus
even martrydom. We cannot know
much about them, but some things
we do know.
Andrew one of the first to be
chosen, brought his brother Simon
Peter Jesus named him Peter, ''the
Rock" you remember. Peter is often
referred to as Jesus best beloved
disciple He did not always do right.
For instance, it was Peter who, after
telling the Lord how much he loved
Him, denied him thrice. But Peter
always suffered terribly after he had
done wrong. He was evidently low
able and impulsive man.
Too Eager for Honor.
James and John, sons Of Zebedee,
were sometimes too eager for honor,
but they loved the Master dearly
Philip was afraid to venture; Bar
thOlOmeW or Nathaniel was never
deceitful; Thomas always wanted to
be sure. (You know the saying,
"Doubting ThOmas") Matthew honor
ed his Lord at feast and wrote a
book about Him. Thaddaeus, or
Judas, son Of James, asked Jesus an
ZealOt and was dissatisfied with Ro-
man rule; while Judas Iscariot was
not to be trusted, for he betrayed his
Master for money, although it
brought him only unhappiness and
he destroyed himself
These men were Jesus chosen
companions. After calling them to
Him he gave them advice and sent
them out to spread the good news.
They are not to be worried about
their personal needs, for they are to
go forth without silver. gold or brass
for their purses. They are to have no
script for their journey neither two
coats, neither SHOES, nor yet slaves:
for the workman is worthy of his
meat" Jesus told them. They are to
go to any worthy person and be
guests of the house. "And if the house
be worthy, let your peace come upon
it, He said. If they are not we'll re-
ceived in home, they are ordered to
'shake the dust of it off their feet"
1t will not be easy to preach the
good tidings, they are warned. They
will probably be arrested and
brought before judges, governors and
kings, and may be scourged in the
synagogue. But they must not fear,
for Are not two sparroWs sold for
a farthing? and one of them shall
not fall to the ground without your
Father.
"But the very hairs of your head
are numbered.
Fear Not.
Fear We not therefore, We are of |
more value than many sparrows."
Jesus knew well that his messages of
peace and good would not be we'll !
received, and that there would be
much bitterness and quarreling over
it. "Think not that I am come to send
peace on earth: | came not to send
peace, but a sword.
"For | am come to set man at
variance against his father, and the
daughter against her mother, and the
daughter in-law against her mother
in-laW. And a mans foes shall be
those of his own household"
Jesus must have said that sadly, l.

WHEAT DAMAGED IN
FARM STORAGE BINS

Chicago, Dec 1.-(AP)-Board Of
trade officials said today elevator
interests were complaining that not
enough grain came into terminal
markets to fill warehouses equipped
! to handle it and keep it in good
condition.
A statement issued by the ex-
changes public relations committee
cited recent reports Of damage in
| flicted on farm stored wheat and
corn, due to Weevils, heating and
other causes
Illustrative of what the commit
tee termed the abnormal storage sit
| uation, the statement pointed out in
spite of large crops this season the
| aggregate primary movement Of
wheat corn and oats SO far tOtaled
| 55,5OO000 bushels less than in the
same period of 1888. Chicago wheat
stocks were 100000 smaller than
a year ago and corn 100000 small
er while the total of the three prin-
cipal grains was 100000 bushels
less than a year ago.
At other terminals similar condi-
tons existed, it said, and at some
smaller receiving points failure of
country shippers to send in corn
in normal quantities left much va
cant room that could be used profit
ably in storing grain where it could
be handled efficiently
Since November l corn receipts
at principal markets totaled 23,046,-
900 bushels, more than 100000
fewer than in the same period last
year.
Owing to so much corn being
sealed for loans and withheld from
normal trade channels not only is
terminal storage room going beg
glng, but much corn is understood !
to be stored in barns and makeshlft i
cribs, where it is subject to ravages
OF vermln and to hazards OF unfa-
vorable weather." an exchange
statement said.
Approximately Is percent of the
1889 wheat crop has been stored /
under the government loan and in
surance program and more grain
was being withheld from market by
More than 250,OOO,OOO bushels of old

Roosevent, which can readily be combined with teach other and re- main separated from the rest of the second floor of the White House.
 They are at the east end of the White House, overlooking the grimy old Treasury building on the east.
 The northeast suite, which was tentatively assigned to the king last November, before Scotland Yard clamped down, consists of a large bedroom, decorated in deep pink or rose, 8 small room which can be either bedroom or a dressing room, and a commodious bath.
 Heroes Statues in View
 It looks out across Lafayette Square, where there are the statues of foreign heroes who came to help the King George HIS colonies win their independence from Great Britain in 1776.
 The suite assigned to the queen, similar in size, is on the southeast end, looking out over the rolling south lawns of the White House to the towering spike of the Washing ton Monument.
 This is one of the most historic rooms in the White House. It was the office of the presidents from the first occupancy of the White House by John Adams until the executive wing of the White House was completed in 1902.
 In it, Abraham Lincoln signed the proclamation on Jan. 1, 1863, freeing the slaves. History says that he had, under the old New Years Day custom at the White House, shaken thousand or so hands, and was tired. Three times he picked up the pen to sign, and three times laid it down, saying his weary hand might tremble, and then posterity, looking at his shaking signature, might say he hesitated as he signed. At last, his hand rested, he signed.
 Hoover's Study Room
 President Herbert Hoover used the room as 8 study, put various Lincoln memorabilia. there, and 1t was called "The Lincoln Study"
 When President Roosevelt came to the White House, Mrs. Roosevelt, because of her numerous family and the many house guests they entertain, converted it to a bed- room, as it had been for several administrations before the Hoovers.
 Between these two suites is

corridor wide as an ordinary sit ting room. In 1t is some furniture which will undoubtedly make King George and Queen Elizabeth think of Queen Victoria. There are alse ] five or six of the presidents collec- tions of models of sailing ships There will sit the Scotland Yard men assigned to guard their majes- l ties.
 A short way down a corridor is a medium-sized sitting room assigned to their majesties. Known as the Monroe Room" it was used fol cabinet meetings from the admin istration of President Andrew Jack: son until 1902. A small grand piano is there, in event the queen wishes to relax by playing some of hel favorite music. There are desk and few tables, various deep- cushioned chairs and sofas, and 6 what-not or so on which are little ornaments.
 This entire. end of the White House, from which the grand stair way goes to the lower floor, can be shut of from the rest of the second floor by screens, and that is one reason why it is always assigned tc visiting heads of states and other parties of celebrities.
 Down the hall to the west must be accommodated the rest of the immediate royal party for which there is room in the White House
 Lincoln Bedroom on Corner On the northwest corner is thu green-decorated suite, similar ir size to those assigned the king ant queen, in which stands the enor. nous bed in which Lincoln si spt. As Mrs. Roosevelt said the ques. tion of who will sleep in the Lincoln bed probably falls under the Scot. land Yards ban, the guess is that Lady Katharine Seymour, lady-in. waiting to the queen, will be choser to sleep in that overpowering bed inasmuch as this room is directly across the corridor from Mrs Roosevelt's sitting room, and openl of a corridor-end in which Mrs Roosevelt serves informal teas. In between these two extremes ot the second floor of the White House are, on the north side, two othe, bedrooms, which must be shared somehow by three men unless one of the kings party goes up to the third floor. These rooms are fur. nished with two beds.
 The kings two valets and the queens two maids will sleep on the third floor, as will whatever Scot. land Yard man is not on duty al the moment.
 Should the king and queen desire any service, there are bells in eact bedroom, and a house telephone system by which they can con- municate with their party. They can have breakfast in bed, as does the president, if they choose, ol can have breakfast with Mrs Roosevelt, either on the south portico, or in the west end of the second corridor.
