but soon homemakerS all over
the Midwest will be acutelY
aware of this increasingly popu-

the nations war food larder.
Winter-caught smelt have
been in the market for some
time, but now that the spring
run is on its way, the supply
will be greatly increased. This
SO-called run comes al different
times in different streams, but a
normal spring harvest of these
fish usually comes TO about TO-
100000 pounds. Thus. they are
ordinarily sold at low prices,
and are marketed widely.
So, whether you are a fisher
man or not, you will be much in
terested in this news from the
northern streams. Besides PAN
frying of smelt, the federal Fish
and Wildlife service recommends
broiling and baking of the little
fish. Here are directions for
baking.

Released from prison after

der he didn't commit, Mark
Grant goes to the office of a law
yer named Fosdick to collect a
legacy left him while he was in
prison. When Fosdick tells him
he will have to wait, Mark ac-
cepts an invitation to party to

him an impostor and Mark re-
turns the money but remains at

son, the man who sent him to
prison, is at the party. but Burle-
son does not recognize him, and
all is well until Mrs. Lynn sud-

against Thomas because of his
unbelief, but there is nothing in
the record to indicate that either
the disciples or Jesus blamed
him for his doubts. They voiced
no criticism for his absence from
this first meeting. We find that
all the disciples were slow to ac-
cept the good news that Jesus
had actually risen from the dead.
It would seem that Thomas was
only waiting for genuine and au-
thenic evidence of this glorious
truth. We see him readily and
|joyously acknowledge Jesus as
his Lord and his God when Jesus
again appeared before the dis
ciples on the second Sabbath
when Thomas was present. Je-
sus is the answer to every doubt.
In His presence all doubts disap-
pear. If we will bring our doubts
to the empty tomb from whence
Christ arose, our doubts will dis
solve one by one leaving the full
assurance of faith in an ever liv-
ing Lord.
Jesus appeared unto the disap-
pointed and unsuccessful fisher
men who had toiled all night
and had caught nothing. The ap-
pearance of Jesus on the bank
of the sea of Tiberias turned their
failure into success as He COM
manded them to cast their nets
on the right side of the ship. AS
these men obeyed the command
of Jesus they hauled in one hun
bred fifty three fish. Obedience
to the risen Lord turns failure
and defeat into marvellous sue
cess. It is still wise and profita-
BILE for the modern Christian to
be guided by the principles of
Jesus.
These appearances of the risen
Christ not only revitallized the
faith of the disciples, but made
them willing to gladly undergo
whatever hardship and sacrifice
necessary that the Gospel may be
preached to every creature in all
the world.

Sunday School
Lesson In Brief
By REV. B. A. MEEKS

Subject: ''The Appearances AT
ter the Resurrection"
Bible Passage: John 20: 1921:
Is.
Golden Text: II am alive for
evermore." Revelation 1:18.
We will not have space to con-
slider all the appearances of Je-
sus. 1t is my purpose to empha-
size four of these appearances re-
corded in Johns Gospel.
Jesus appeared unto the grief
stricken Mary Magdalene. The
loyal and faithful Mary had visit
ed the sepulchre very early on
this first Sabbath day and seeing
the stone rolled from the door
ran to tell Peter and John that
the Lords body had been remov-
ed to some unknown place. They
all three came hurrying back to
the tomb and beheld its empti-
ness. Having verified the fact
that Jesus was no longer in the
tomb, Peter and John went away,
but Mary overcome in her grief
remained to weep by the tomb.
| AS she finally turns from the
door of the sepulchre and sees
Jesus through tear dimmed eyes
did not recognize Him, but sup
posed Him to be the gardener.
Only after hearing Jesus call
her by name did she recognize
Him. The familiar sound of Je-
sus pronouncing her name turns
her grief into gladstone awe as
she exclaims, "Rabboni; which is
to say, Master. In the presence
of Jesus, Mary found relief from
her sorrow and grief. Her rec
ognition of Jesus as the living
Lord removed the cause of sor-
row. The presence of Jesus does
not always remove the cause of
sorrow, but in His presence we
find comfort and consolation in
our sorrow and strength to bear
whatever grief is permitted to
come our way.
Jesus appeared to the fear rid
den disciples as they met behind
closed doors for fear of the Jews.
The sudden appearance of Jesus
in their midst was a terrifying
experience. Their terror slow
ly gave way to JOY as they heard
the familiar greeting of Jesus
saying, Peace be unto YOU. AS
Jesus saw the dismay Of the dis
ciples turn into glad recognition,
He says unto them again, Peace
be unto YOU. The presence of
Jesus always brings peace to His
followers. 1t does not matter
what the outward circumstances
may be, the consciousness of
Christ's nearness brings inward
peace to all believers.
Jesus appeared unto the doubt
ing Thomas that he might see and
believe. AS we know, Thomas
was absent when Jesus first ap-
peared to the other disciples.
When they reported to Thomas
that they had seen the Lord he
would not believe, but said, Eek
cept 1 shall see in his hands the
print of the nails, and put my
finger into the print of the nails,
and thrust my hand into his side,
l will not believe. Some have
uttered very bitter criticism

transgress again. The thought of
his reckless entrance there, his
violation of all the amenities of
social life, made his cheeks burn.
He loved the girl; it was no ro-
nance of a day; and because 1t
was real, because it was thing
above and apart from the rest of
his life, he would see her no more.
The suffering was his. The sur
prise and annoyance might be
hers, but she would soon forget!
He would not go there, but he
could not go away. Each day he
said to himself: tomorrow To-
morrow he stayed. Night after
night he walked around the square
on which the Burleson house
stood; day after day he put off
his journey. 1t was folly-it was
idleness-but the spell held him.
PANS eyes, her voice, the touch
Of he small hand, haunted him.
To 60 away from the city where
lshe dWelt would be exile. There
was always a chance here of a
glimpse of her, himself unseen.
Once he did so see her. She was
going out with Mrs. Lynn, in the
Burleson car. He glimpsed her
face, a little pale, framed in a
great hat, the furs muffling her;
he saw her pass and the day was
changed for him. After that, he
did not plan to go for three days.
Once he saw Landon going to the
house, and hated the boy for it.
''He has no right there - after
what he did!' Mark thought hot
ly, and grew hotter when he re-
allied the part he, himself, had
played. Once he saw Pam on
horseback in the park. Screened
by the trees he watched her in
the sunshine and thought her the
most beautiful thing in the world!
That day he nearly broke his res
olution. It seemed as if he must
speak to her. That night he sum-
moned himself to the bar of his
own judgment and condemned
himself. No honest man would
have gone into another's house
under false name and made love
to an innocent girl. He would 60

don't know her, Mrs. Lynn"
His hostess looked perplexed.
<'But she should be your cousin;
there are so few Byrams. You
must come in on the Tom Byram
side?"
Mark caught the gleeful malice
in Landon's eyes.
"No," he replied fatty, mot on
any side. You're mistaken, Mrs.
Lynn. I'm not related to the
Utica ByramS."
She was a little taken aback.
But woman of the world pass
es such things over lightly; she
turned the conversation swiftly;
though her eyes flashed one keen
question at Landon. He Redeemed
and moved uneasily in his chair.
1t was Pam who spoke softly to
Mark.
I'm so glad! Those Utica By
rams are so stodgy. I didn't see
how you could belong!"
Il might be a hop out Of kin,

with Romeo it was love at
first sight" said Mark.
Again the flame that played in
his eyes held hers. She drew a
quick breath, smiling, clinging
desperately to the conventions.
She did not know that prison had
made a pagan of him, like a pagan
he was wooing her, and he knew
he had no right to do it. The din
ner ended too soon for him. He
outstayed the other guests. There
was music and little dancing
again. Burleson took off few
to the opera. Pam taught Mark
some dancing steps in the desert
ed ballroom. Landon had been
carried off against his will, by
Burleson. Mrs. Lynn was in the
