God. To love God supremely does
not interfere with family devotion
or affection, it only purifies and in
creases them. That is sweeter,
happier home which makes Christ
first in the home life. Gods pro-
gram is to make Christ the founda-
tion of the home, and the Christian
home the foundation of the nation.
V. FL. $50 that servant came
and showed his lord these things.
Then the master of the house being
angry said to his servant, Go out
quickly into the streets and lanes
OF the city, and bring in hither the
poor, and the MANNED, and the halt,
and the blind" Jesus here taught
why he had chosen the disciples
from among the obscure and he JUS
titled his mixing with the publicans
and sinners that he might invite
invite them into his kingdom Je-
sus' invitation in the "Come" of
verse IT was universal. He accepts
any and all who will come. Excuses
do not stand in the way Of the Lord
for he passes by those who make
them and stops to welcome even
the lowly who will accept his invi-
tation.
VS.. %, %. "And the servant said,
Lord it is done as thou hast COM
manded and yet there is room. And
the Lord said unto the servant, Go
out into the highway and hedges,
and compel them to come in, that
my house may be filled" The high
way and hedges for us are the home
and foreign mission fields. The
Great Commission to the disciples
and to the Christian church today
to go into all the world and preach
the gospel is a divine order that
can not be treated lightly. The
word compel calls for great ear
nestness on the part of Christians
and on the part of those who are
neglected and down low in society
it means a surprise that God should
love them. 1t is proven beyond a
doubt that when Christ has a
chance, those in the lower strata of
society by the help of Christ rise to
the very top. All they want is a
chance
V. "a. For l say unto you, that
none of those men which are hidden
shall taste of my supper" Those
who reject Jesus invitation do SO
at their own peril.

"INFLUENZA"

Comments by DR.. C. E. Nor
thrup, health commissioner):
There seems to be an unusual
number of cases of influenza spread
ing over the country. So far, we
have been as free in our county of
any contagious diseases as we have
been for several years. 1t is believ-
ed there is more danger of spread
ing the disease from persons in the
early stages of "fiu" than from per-
sons ill enough to be in bed or those
in bed. In any case, any unneces-
sary contact should be avoided. Ex-
perience in previous epidemics has
taught some valuable lessons. The
closing Of schools has not been ef-
fective in checking the spread of
influenza or any of the infectious
diseases. The persons who try to
keep on their feet, ''to stick it out"
are those that contribute the great
est number to the death roll In
their weakened condition, secondary
invading germs gain foot-hold and
permit the development of serious
complications.
These are few things that an in
SuOulu uO W PiotCSI hiIiA-
self from influenza and will go a
long way in keeping one we'll:
/. Avoid needless contact with
others, especially people who are
coughing, sneezing or shifting.
2. Avoid exposure to inclement
weather, but take advantage of as
much open air and sunshine as you
can.
8. Be sure that your home is
well ventilated at all times, but
avoid drafts.
4. Eat well-balanced diet,
drink plenty of water.
5. Guard against fatigue, get
plenty of rest and sleep.
6. Wear clothing suitable to the
weather.
At the first sign of cold. es-
pecially if you have fever, go to
bed and stay there until your doc
tor says it is safe to get up. BY SO
doing you may prevent serious COM
piications and the spreading of the
disease to others.

The Sighted Invitation, Luke
14:15-38, for Sunday, Jan. 19:
In the lesson of today we face the
provisions God makes for the en-
riching and perfecting of person
ality and see that God has a definite
plan and extends special invitations
which too often are ignored by pre-
occupation of mind, Indifference and
neglect.
v. 15. "And when one of them
sat at meat with him heard these
things, he said unto him, Blessed is
he that shall eat bread in the king
dom of God" Jesus having spoken
of the recompense of the just in the
world to come made fine setting
for the self-righteous remark of fu-
ture blessedness which is a common
statement of those who take things
for granted.
VS.. 16, IT. "Then he said unto
him, A certain man made great
supper, and bade many; and sent
his servant at supper time to say to
them that were bidden, Come; for
all things are now ready" Jesus
wanted to make the needed cOrrec-
tion that religion consisted not Of
pious phrases and glorious hope
but a life of consecrated purpose to
the will of God, hence this parable.
Profession counts for little, if. in
the actual living of our lives, we do
not appropriate to ourselves every
day the grace and power which God
so freely offers. The supper was
heaven, the giver of the feast was
God and those invited were the
Jews. Gods Come" is the uni
versal invitation. There is nothing
lacking in Gods reception.
V. 49, "And they all with one
consent began to make excuse. The
first said unto him, have bought a
piece of ground and 1 must needs
excused" To allow anything to in
terfere with Gods invitation to
come to him and serve him is sin.
One vain excuse is that of property
interests and at the same time
trifiing in things that are religious.
This is true because of lack of
sincerity and earnestness.
v. 10. And another said, l
have bought five yoke of oxen, and
/ go to prove them; pray thee,
have me excused" Here is one who
allows work to ALLEVIATE his inter-
ests from spiritual things. No one
worked harder than Jesus did but
he abhorred the thought Of putting
business before the things of God.
". 20. "And another said, / have
married wife, and therefore l can
not come" This excuse was that OF
allowing natural affections to be-
come barrier between himself and
