The Task Committed to the
Disciples, Matthew 28:16-20: Mark
16:14-2O; Luke 24:49-35 for Sun
day June FL.
Our lesson today deals with the
commission, the response which the
disciples made to it, and the in
struction our Lord gave them about
waiting for the gifts of the spirit.
V. 16. "Then the eleven disciples
went away into Galilee, into a
mountain where Jesus had appoint
ed them" Jesus had planned a
Galilee meeting with his disciples.
He longs to make an appointment
with US too; this appointment de-
pends upon our willingness, our
mental attitude, our desire to please
him and the use we make of Bible
reading and prayer.
VIZ. "And when they saw him !;
they worshiped him, but some doubt
ed The one characteristic of dis
ciple then and now is seen in wor-
Shipping the Lord. 1t takes little
time to change ones deliberate con-
ceptions Saving faith has an in
stantaneous beginning: it is also a
growth.
Wis. "And Jesus came and
spake unto them, saying, All power
is given unto me in heaven and in
earth" Though man by the exer-
: else of his free will may flout the
will of Christ, nevertheless, all
things will be brought at last
under his eternal power; his power
and authority in our lives and in
the lives of the nations depends
US.
V. 10. "Go therefore, and teach
all nations, baptiZing them in the
name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Ghost" In spite OF
Gods power he works through men.
Without God we can do nothing
and without us He can do nothing
in saving the world.
v. 20. Teaching them to observe
all things whatsoever l have COM
:manded you; and 10, am with you
always, even unto the end OF the
world" Christ's teachings are au-
thoritative while his commands are
binding on every one. Note that
the presence of Christ is promised
on condition that we do our best in
bringing salvation to all men.
v. Is. "Afterward he appear
ed unto the eleven as they sat al
meat and upbraided them with their
unbelief and hardness of heart, be-
cause they believed not them which
had seen him after he was risen
And he said unto them, Go ye into
all the world, and preach the gos,

same appearance which Luke re.

priests in Spain is reported by the
Catholic Herald. The lack of
priests is becoming so acute in some
dioceses that the Spanish Hierarchy,
it is believed, may seek special
directions and assistance from the
Holy See regarding the problem.
Some 900 persons attended the
recent fifth annual dinner of Chris
tians and Jews. Four years ago
the number was 200. Rabbi de
SoIa Pool of New York called
the gathering ''an eloquent eX-
preston of mutual regard He
recalled the part of Jews in Amer
lean life from colonial and revolu-
tionary days, and said that, as Jew
ish .chaplincy head, he receives
daily requests from Christian chap
lains for prayers.
The Bible is not only the best
seller this year, but has been every
year in the United States since
1900. For the last 10 years the
sales of the American Bible Society
have reached 100000 copies a
year. Add to this figure the dis
tributions of the other great Bible
Societies in England, Scotland,
and the Netherlands and the sales
mount to 2O,O0O,000 yearly. This
does not include the 100000
copies sold by commercial houses
and smaller Bible societies.

For Victory: Buy Bonds
U-BOATS MENACING
OHIO FARMS?

Sounds fantastic, but more than
80 million eggs-the whole years
production of 323 farms-are lost
with the sinking of an average U. S.
cargo vessel Few people appre-
ciate the significance Of cargo
ship sinking but the fact is that
such a loss at sea represents con-
siderable amount of agricultural
production"
When food ship is sunk, it
means the loss of whole years
production Of milk from 497 farms
or 100000 pounds of fluid milk
from 2,783 cows; 100000 pounds
of evaporated milk from 304 cows,
or the whole years production of
54 farms; 10000 boxes of cheese,
representing the production for a
year from 3,037 cows or 542 farms;
$4,000 pounds of canned pork,
representing 5,021 hogs or the
years production Of 314 farms;
$4,000 pounds of cured pork, or
5,O44 hogs, the years production Of
315 farms; $4,000 pounds or lara
lard from 1852 hogs-the
years production of 1927 farms;
1926 bushels of -four, represent
ing the wheat yield of 838 acres or
a years production of 81 farms !;
28,111 cases of canned vegetables,
nearly $4,000 pounds of produce
from 81 farms representing 40
acres of tomatoes 100 acres of snap
beans, and 102 acres of peas.
All in all the loss of a food car
go ship, perhaps somewhere in the
murky North Atlantic sea, may
seem a remote and distant happen
ing, but the years production ef-
forts of some 1924 farms are wiped
out when the enemy torpedo strikes

From the second inaugural adj

DIR. James r. Conant, preSi-
dent of Harvard University, sees
the danger of postwar promises

rained on us by some OF our
eminent leaders.
In fact. these charming pipe
dreamerS seem 10 think that
this war for our very life is a
kind of college debating society
wherein they air their prettified
dreams and send forth their
Utopian balloons while naked
brutality advances upon US, over

waters of the Pacific and Allan
tic oceans.
Doctor Conant said the other
day:
"Surely the history OF the
United States from 1917 to 1871
shows how the UtOpian philOs-
ophy may defeat the very move
ments IL would foster. When
impossible ideals are set before
mems minds no harvests except
bitter establishment and cynic-
ism can be expected. Limited
detectives we must set. But
let us proceed cautiously in
painting too rosy a picture of
the world. or even the United
States. after the war Is over"
There is common sense in
every line Of that.
We must not live in the
dreams of a Henry Wallace.
