O SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Modern Esaus Might Better Bring Their Good Into the Church Scripture: Genesis, Sin dogs a sinner's footsteps and besets his path. He may win divine favor and the forgiveness of God; but the human conse quences often remain. They may be visited in tragic effect upon his family, or upon his own chil dren. They may arise to embar rass him years after he may have wronged another, or been untrue to himself. Jacob had had to leave home, following his disgraceful episode in stealing the birthright from his brother Esau. He had escaped to his mother's brother, his uncle Laban, in the land "ot the people of the east" (Genesis 29), from which Rebekah had come. Here he faced the first penalty for his wrong-doing in coming up against a greedy trickster like himself for Laban abused and deceived him. But here the best in Jacob came out again, in his love for Rachel, for whom he served seven years, which "seemed unto him but a few days, for the love he had to her." When Laban trick- id him, and gave him the older sister, Leah, instead, he served another seven years for Rachel; and six additional years he serv ed, while in the 20 years Laban changed his wages 10 times. It was .time for Jacob to get Ceresan .ti for Seed and Grain Treatment. Stock Spray (Bring Container) Lilly's Calf Meal EBICKSOH and LOTTES 1525 Jeffersoa Phone 792 CHURCHES First Church of Christ.

Jap Correspondents To Cover Mac Arthur MANILA. Aug. 25 (UP) It's come at last the day the corres pondents have joked about for three days. Now the Japanese war correspondents want to cov er Gen. Douglas MacArthur s headquarters. And what's more, MacArthur has agreed, in part. Chapters 32-35 back to his own country. But two dangers loomed. Would La ban let him go, taking to a faroff country his daughters and his grandchildren, and the flocks vith which Jacob had enriched himself? And what of his own country when he arrived? Would Esau be waiting there, unforgiv ing and vengeful, after 20 years? One need not go into the de tails of the story, the escape from Laban, and Laban's pursuit with his indignant sons, the cov enant between Jacob and Laban at Mizpah, and the fear and strategy as Jucob approached Esau, reported to be coming against him with 400 men. What we are concerned with is Jacob himself, and the spirit ual change that had come over him. He is full of fear, and he is ready to make great gifts by way of appeasement, and h plans a wise strategy by which u part at least of his company will escape if Esau and his men refuse his gifts and attack him. But the outstanding thing is that the man who was formerly f selfish-spirited t r i c k st e r no longer thinks about himself or his possessions. His chief concern is for the women and children; and the high point in his life is in that scene in which, with the company gone across the brook, he wrestles with "a man" until the break of day, saying, "I will not let thee go, except thou bless me." The scene, for us at least, is symbolic; and it has had a rich place in the symbolism of re ligious experience. But the high point in the narrative is in the i.oble attitude and the forgiving spirit of Esau. To me he seems to typify those noble souls who remain outside of the church, Make no profession of religion, and yet by the honesty and gra ciousness of their lives put many church-members and professing Christians to shame. Yet let us not miss the real significance. Jacob, not Esau, was the man of promise and the hope of the future. He had something that t h e gentle, tolerant,' forgiving Esau lacked. Think it over, ye modern Esaus. How much better if you brought your pleasant moral living into the full service of Christ and the church! DRS.
