And it came to pass iu Icon- J-iim that they entered tOKether in- to the synagogue of the Jews. And BO spake. The conversion of a very great multitude of Jews and Greeks at this time was due to the manner in which the apostle had spoken. That a great multitude both of Jews aud of Greeks believ- ed. Difficulties in lc«nium 2. Bui the Jews that were disob- edient stirred up the souls of the Gentiles, and made tbem evil af- fected against the brethren. One would have thought l.uke would say, "the Jews who did not be- lieve." What he means by the word "disobedient" la that they disobeyed God In not receiving his message. 3. Long time therefore they tar- ried tliero. The reason for the long tarrying was not the success of the â- work, but its difllcultles. Speaking boldly in the Lord. Who bare wit- ness uuto the word of bis grace. These men went luto new cities with no new message, but with the same message, adaptiug their me- thod of presentation, but never changing the truth. Granting the sign because It signified, or ludl- taeir hands. A miracle was a won- iler because it caused wonderment oa the part of the people; It was a sign because it slginified, or iiidi- tated that God's power was resting upon these men. 4. But the multitude of the city ^as divided; and part held with the Jews, aud part with the Ap- ostles. 5. And n-hen there was made an onset both of the Gentiles and of the Jews with their rulers, to treat them shamefully and to stone them. Stoning was the Jewish mode of punishment for blasphemy and such these Jews would repre- sent the teaching of the apostles to be. C. Tlioy became aware of it, and f.-ed Into iho cities of Lyconia, Lystra, tmd Derbe, and the region round about: 7. and there they had preacbfd the gospel.

Why do we read that the apos- ".>3 fled from iconium? Would it not have been far more courags- 'jQs to have stayed there and suf- fered death? Sometimcg it is need- ful to fling away your life for .'esus; but if It can be preserved without shirking duty, it is better ta flee tiian die. A voluntary mar- â- f 1» a suicide.

Confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to con- tinue in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God. Paul said to these men as he went back, 'Do not look at the seen things in Lys- tra, Iconium aud Antioch, continue in tho faith.' Tills is the great word that ever needs to be uttered for the establishment of Christian life. He exhorted them to patience iu tribulation, because that was the way of victory. Elders In Every Church 23. And when they had appoint- ed for ttienj elders In every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they had believed. The dis- ciples wore gathered together into a church or community having a common life, rulod by laws, govern- ed by disciples. The rulers in these little communities were called eld- ers and bishops. At the head of each Christian community there was a college of elders who were responsible for the teaching and the discipline of the community. These elders were solemnly set ap- art for the office by i)raycr, fasting, laying on of hands, and then fol- lowed the commendation to the Lord, the special service of prayer and exhortation which accompan- ied every peculiarly solemn act in the apostolic church." 26. And thence they sailed to An- tioch, from whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled. From tlieso cities Paul aud Barna- bas worked their way down to the coast, and then from Altalla took ship to Seleucla, on the Syrian coast, whence tliey went on, to Antiocb, from which they had de- parted at the beginiiing of litis great missionary journey. 27.

Halg-Thomas, Cambridge rowing niue and member of tho 1937-38 Ellesmere Island expedition, said his observations of polar bears showed they always used their left paws in preference to their right. Won't Break Seal's Skull Ills Eskimo friends, he said, told him polar bears would never break a seal's skull if it could be avoid- ed. Their hesitation to break a skull, in liskUno opinion, was a sign they agreed with the Eskimo belief that if a hunter breaks an animal's skull his spirit will be re- leased and will not permit him to hunt successfully thereafter. "BEWARE OF PITY" By Stefan Zweig This, the first ionff novel by the famous author of "Marie Antoin- ette," is a psychological study, profoundly moving, of a beautiful crippled Austrian girl who falls in love with a young cavalry of- ficer. The young man's pity cau.s- cs him to form a close friendship with the girl which culminates in a crisis of great intensity. Tragedy of the starkest kind brings this dramatic story to * close. The two young people be- come engaged but a misunder- i^tanding drives the sensitive and impetuous girl to commit suicide, i:nd there is an end both of pity and of love. The lesson of Mr. Zweig's tale is that there are two kinds of pity â€" the selfless kind that heals and the selfish kind that wounds. Canned roses at moderate prices may soon be on the market in winter. The blooms, preserved by a se- cret process known only to its discoverer, a well-known Kritish rose glower, are aa dewy and as fresh when taken from their tins m December as they were when plucked in June, but they have no odor.
