CT INDAY SCHOOL, 7 ECCON Go To Some Church Sunday

The rejected heralds must not only
leave unreceptive households, but
renounce all responsibility for their
rejection. Yet the r~ejectors must be
assured Of the nearness of the
kingdom to Them.
8. The Return to Jesus was
triumphant. The seventy came back
to the Master with joy and re-
ported that even the demons were
subject unto them through his
name. This was The severest of all
tests Of their power and success.
4. The Prayer of Jesus, now Of
fered, involved the triune God, the
Son praying by the Holy Spirit
to the Father. 1t was the prayer
Of joy not only expressing graft
tude for the success of the even
ty but also raising che Father for
the exercise of his sovereign will.
In accordance with that will there
is revealed to the teachable babe
what is hidden from the unteach-
able wise man. Spiritual simplicity
is more receptive than intellectual
capacity. Moreover, by thai same
will Jesus occupied his m~ediatorial
throne. Since all things are deliv-

2. The Communion From Jesus
was almost the same as that which
Jesus gave earlier to the twelve,
though the present mission was not
limited to the Jews. Notice wv.
LID the dozen imperatives; (1)
Pray. The prime essential then as
now in missionary success was
prayer for laborers to reap the
great harvest. (2) Go. They must
not Sop at praying for others,
but go themselves. And as unde-
Tended lambs among prosecuting
wolves they were to work in peace
and love. (3) Garry net. No extra
equipment for the journey was
necessary, They must carry nei-
Their purse with extra change nor
wallet for extra luggage o even
an extra pair of sandals. (4)
Salute not. Lettering and gossip
along the journey must be prevent
ed. The Oriental salutations were
profuse and occupied much time.

The harvest is plenteous. The la
borers are few. The world goes to
waste. Where is an army of har-
vesters to gather in the golden
grain?
The supply Of labCrers Is the de-
mand of the hour. God has entrust-
ed his work to men. He has so or
dered his affairs on earth that he
must have workers to carry on his
work. The best way, and the only
way, they can be secured is an ans
wer to prayer. Nor can there he
doubt that he'll answer the prayer
which he teaches us to pray.

Consider The Law, If You Will


How many of our readers have
given any thought to the illegality
Of the U. S. military establish
ment's treatment of colored Ameri-
cans? The discrimination practic-
ed by the military establishment
against colored citizens are plain
ly violation of the American Con-
stitution provisions saying there
shall be no abridgement of the
rights of citizens on account OF
color, creed, or previous CONDITION.
1t certainly is obvious that the
restrictions placed on citizens of
these provisions as they are set
forth in the 18th, 14th and 18th
Amendments.
These Il DIVISIONS postula.e an
equality of citizenship, and are the
sufficient basis, in law at any rate,
for an all-out attack of the petty
minded color determinations of the
military establishment. This de-
paItment sees no reason now or
ever to withhold such an attack,
After all, men can fight to defend

nation, His speech last week call

harm, Nor has his outspoken sup

who, in the last election, were not
quite sure he was their man.
