The Lord went away Sec
ond time "and prayed and
spake the same words" AL
though the second prayer per-
tanned as did the first to the
passing of "the cup" from Him,
there was in the second prayer
a decided firmness of decision
to do the Fathers will by
drinking "the Cup. Praying
more earnestly ellis sweat was
as it were great drops Of blood
falling to the ground" Since
Jesus was under such an over
whelming load of grief, He
prayed in order that God
might strengthen Him so that
He could go on to accomplish
His redeeming work on the
Cross.
In His hour of greatest
agony there appeared from
Heaven an angel strengthen
ing Him. thus Jesus was en-
abled to go on to the Cross,
where He could say with His
last breath, ''It is finished!"
Coming to His disciples the
second time, He found them
asleep ''for their eyes were
heavy Leaving them, He
went away and prayed the
third time, repeating the same
words. He came to His disci-
Piles the third time, and now
He said, "Sleep on, and take
your rest" Jesus knew that
the hour was at hand, when
the Son of man would be be-
trayed Unto the hands of sim
ners." He was ready, for He
said, Rise, let us be going;
behold he is at hand that doth
betray Me-"

Man. created in the image
of God, began his existence in
a paradise - the Garden of
Eden-where he enjoyed per-
feet bliss. But, having yielded
to sin, he lost his God-given
heritage and was driven forth
into a wilderness. To restore
Paradise to fallen man, it was
necessary for Christ to begin
His public ministry in the will
derness and close it in the
Garden of Gethsemane. The
wilderness saw the beginning
of Jesus battle with Satan; the
Garden of Gethsemane was
the place of conquest and VIC
tory. Thus Gethsemane may
rightly be called the worlds
greatest battlefield.
I JESUS PRAYING FOR
THE CUP TO PASS -
Verses 36-39; John 3:27-
80; Mark 14:26-37; John
10:17, 18; 1871, 2; II Cor.
5:21; Phil. 1858.
After having spent the last
night of His public ministry
with the disciples in the upper
room chamber observing the
Passover and instituting' the
Lords Supper, Jesus went to
the Garden of Gethsemane, a
place of quiet retreat at the
foot of the western slope of
the Mount of Olives. "Geth-
semane" means coil press.
The crushing and pressing of
olives for olive oil is a fitting
symbol Of the distress and
agony the Savior had to en-
dure before he could lay down
His life as a sacrifice upon
Calvary's Cross.
Having reached "the place
called Gethsemane' Jesus
directed eight of His disciples
to remain at the entrance of
the Garden, while He with
three other of His disciples
went into the Garden to pray.
Jesus then began to be "sor-
rowful and very heavy. He
was not afraid of death, vet
He was stricken down with
sorrow as He realized the
havoc that sin had wrought in
the human race. Jesus, "the

Man of sorrows" was not only
to- "bear the sin of many, but
He was to be made SIM" and
also to be ''made a curse for
u.s." He left even His three
most intimate disciples and
went a little farther alone,
where He fell on His face and
prayed to the Father, ''Let this
cup pass from Me-. The in
gradients of this cup were the
worlds sin, the unfaithfulness
of His own disciples, the
treachery of Judas, and the
denial of Peter. Jesus did not
want to evade suffering, for
He said 'Not as I will, but as
Thou wilt"
II JESUS ADMONISHED HIS
DISCIPLES TO PRAYER.

80; Rom. 7:18, %, %; Gal.
5:17, "a; Peter 5:8.
While our Lord was pleading
with the Father for the cup to
pass, the disciples were "sleep-
ing for sorrow - not only
weary in body, but weighted
down in spirit. Jesus singled
out Peter because of his pro-
fession of loyalty, and to him
He said, what, could We not
watch with Me one hour?"
Although Jesus craved fellow
ship in this hour of sorrow, He
did not ask His disciples to
pray for Him. This, in fact, is
a silent but powerful tribute
to His Divinity. Not for Him.
self, but for them Jesus gave
the exhortation-"Watch and
Pray
Only by watchfulness would
they become aware, of Satan's
temptations and only by
prayer would they be given
the strength of God to over
come. It has been rightly said
that prayer without watch
ing is hypocrisy, and watching
without prayer is presump-
tion." Jesus showed the path
way of victory through every
trial of life when He admon-
ished His disciples to "Watch

declared: "The legislature was

will have, in practical terms,

Soil Building Key
TO higher Yields,
Lower Output Costs

CHICAGO - Farm production
costs have nearly tripled since the
prewar days of 1859, declared
the Middle West Soil Improvement
Committee in a statement issued
here.
Farm wages are now three and
half times the 1859 average.
according to u. S. Department of
Agriculture Statistics" says the
statement. THE cost of seed, feed,
and many other things farmers buy
has scared.
meanwhile, farm prices have
slum2ed and many economists ex-
pect a further easing in the period
ahead.
Farmers can meet the impact
of higher production costs and low
er prices by good soil management
that steps up crop producing eff
cheney and cuts output costs per
unit With fertilizer still one of the
best buys in farm production costs,
soil building for high production is
more profitable than ever.
Good soil management means
teamwork in which a number of
different measures back each other
up. These include a good rotation,
built around deep-rooted legumes,
lining. the use of phosphate and
potash fertilizer, the return Cf barn
yard manure and crop aftermaths
TO the soil.
working together these mem
bers of the soil management team
will build up your soils organic
matter, improve tilth and drainage
and give crop roots more living
space in which to forage for plant
nutrients"

THE HOOPSKIRT rs THROUGH

Times have changed since the
wears when this century was
young. Prices have changed and
the fashions of dress, and the
modes of entertainment. The
horse and buggy the spinning
wheel. the kerosene lamp have
all seen their day, and the new
Chevy, the huge textile mills,
fluorescent lighting have more
than satisfactorily taken their
places.
1t is with all these changes in
the back of their minds that
people throw out the remark-a
remark which seems to be self
satisfactory as kind of blanket
excuse for any immortality or vi
olation of Gods laW-"Fathcr,
times have changed.
The implication is right there,
If the modern way of life and
Gods way conflict, we'll then, we
