He was speaking one evening before a church men's club about the dangers of street life to children. Aa he closed he aid deliberately In his gooo Irish brogue, "I have nlver in me long experience known of a boy or girl to go wrong in a. family where the fayther played with his children for an hour afther supper." And with Justifiable pride he added: "And I've thried It mesilf." i The Boy Wao Didnt Pasa In School. To the Editor:' Horace did not pas his examinations last term and is going; to be kept back a year. I .am sure be haa a good mind and I think he tries hard. He has been interested In his work, but I am afraid he won't be if he has to do it over. I hon estly want to know what I can do to prevent this happening again. SA&A Q P. Tour question suggests the matter of bettering Horace's borne conditions. 1 am taking it for granted that con ditions at school are satisfactory. What about Horace's opportunity to do his home work favorably? I believe that we are going to adjust things soon so that home work will become obsolete, but in Horace's Immediate case It is plain that he must do quite a little and do it well if he is to move ahead. Has he a quiet place to do his studying? If not, how can you contrive that he shall have one? If he shares his bed room with somebody else, can you set aside a corner in the guest-room for him? Has fae a definite time to do this work? Or does he get interrupted to do errands; or to go out and play; or by your having company? Is he one of the boys who can study best Immedi ately after he gets home from school, or Just before supper, or early in the evening? How many times has this period of quiet been broken into re cently? Does he go to bed early? Do you see that he goes out evenings only on Fridays or Saturdays? Now, while Horace is scared by his failure, is the time to study out the actual situation with him and get him to co-operate in favor of his own success. Why Are Engineers so Uninteresting t To the Editor: I am a classically edu cated man. 1 try to get the view point of today, tnat a technical education Is better than culture. But to me education means developing an Interesting mind. If I were going across the continent and had the choice of sharing my seat with a man who had studied the classical course or one who was a professional engineer I would pick the classical man every time, because he could talk something besides "shop." I raise this point because I have a boy who Is go ing to college some day, and I want him to become the biggest man possible, SOLICITOR. I know of a technical college where the teacher of English literature has trouble to get anybody to take any of his courses except commercial corre spondence, because the fellows say "literature Isn't practical." They also ask, "How does Robert Browning help a man to make a dollar?" I know what you mean. I asked this very question last week of the professor of engineer ing physics In a great state university. This is what he told me: "Every time we get our men together in assembly we implore them to take up the liberal subjects, English, sociology, economics, history and debating. We believe no man today can become a great engineer who Is not a well-developed individual. And within five years we shall Insist that every engineering student shall have had a broad college education be- lore He begins to study to be an engi neer." There is your answer. .Sunday School Leisson BY REV. J.S. Kl RTLEY. D D. (Copyright 1916.) WHEN his youngsters were very small he brought home from time to time, from his store, a miscel laneous assortment of odds and ends or ribbons, different sizes of spools, and nests of boxes, and thus furnished them with all the essentials for sense-training that go with a Montessorl "House of Childhood." A little later he had a carpenter unload at his back door a pile of various-shaped wooden bricks of white pine, well planed and con taining few slivers and splinters. At about the same time he spread three or four loads of line builders' sand within a timber enclosure in the yard. As soon as a child displayed a desire for tools he passed by those attractive boxes, marked "$1.69," containing saws made of lead and hammers that dent themselves every time they pound, in favor of one or two well-made tools that would work. How He Helped Them In School. When early school-days came, some sound instinct suggested his buying a second-hand typewriter, so that his children might learn to spell, write and compose at the same time. He at tributes the fact that they generally won a "double promotion" to this and to the exercises in arithmetic that came from becoming jdnior partners with him in a chicken enterprise. He did not go into the outdoor-sleeplng-porch fad. but he bought a tent and slept in it with his boys in the backyard, and not having time to camp out with them as much as he would like, he Ehowed them how to get camp breakfasts under the apple tree, without bothering mother. Hon He Taught Them to Work. He "had a way of making some sort of game out of such disagreeable tasks as sifting ashes and putting on the screen doors, and whenever he had any disciplining to do he managed to get it done through a good story, often a funny one. When his boys were of the restless age he redoubled his endeav ors to make home interesting. He bought a second-hand billiard table and knocked a hole in the attic to make room for it. He got up a father's ball nine and challenged his son's team to play and beat them, too. . When the Girls Had Lovers, When his girls began to have lovers, he wa most actively interested. He was so amusing that it was a long time before any young man came along who was so bright that his daughters would not rather have father for her 'com panlonr But when they really became atten tive, then father . insisted on having them at the house, and while they didn't have many solitary hours In the parlor with Jennie, they did get taken into the family and'developed a great liking for the old man. In the mean time the old man was quietly looking them up in their places of employment and pleasure! The Secret of His Greatness. This man died at length, leaving only a small fortune, but a great inheri tance. And the local newspaper at the time happened to be enlightened enough to remark that, in view of the splendid family he had given to the town, he whs to be numbered among its most successful citizens. And all this because he stayed on his job and played With his children. An expert has given bis testimony to the value of this mutual play-life be tween father and child. He is a Phila delphia police captain, honored for his use record and for his personal char- SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON JAN. 21. John xxxv 135-51 First Disciples of the Lord Jesna. , ' COXXECTIOS. IN OUR last lesson John the Baptist told the committee from Jerusalem what he thought of himself and of the Messiah; then, when Jesus stood among them the next day after his disappear ance in the wilderness for 40 days, he referred to him as "the Lamb of God who taketh away the sin of the world." The next day after that testimony is the day of our lesson. The traditional day of Christ's baptism Is January 7, A, D. 27. That is not likely correct, but not far from the real date. Forty days after that would be late In Febru ary. The startling fact is that they don't seem to have been startled by his exciting announcement. But he him self was a startling phenomenon, and all he said stimulated Interest, so that this may have been highly exciting, after all. THE LESSON. I- Two to Start Work With 33-40. "Again on the morrow John was standing, and two of his disciples; and be looked upon Jesus as he walked, and said, behold the Lamb of God! And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus. And Jesus turned and beheld them following, and satth unto them. 'What seek ye?' And they said unto him, 'Rabbi (which is to say, being interpreted. Teacher), where abidest thou?" He saith unto thefh. Come and ye shall see. They came therefore and saw where he abode; and they abode with him that day; it was about the tenth hour. One of the two that heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother" J. Prepared. They were prepared by at least two Influences to become the disciples of Jesus. First was the influence of the home. It was proba bly a. slack time in fishing and these two men went down to hear that strange prophet who was waking the echoes In the wilderness of Judea near the Jordan River, with the hope that they might find the Messiah their -fathers and mothers had taught them to look for. Second was the wonderful in fluence of John the Forerunner. He had awakened them, won them to the coming Messiah, taught them, identi fied him to them as they saw him walR ing toward them, and then hinted, so it seems to me, that they should go on with him. Of course God's spirit was working through these influences. They were well prepared. It was John business and his highest pleasure to get disciples ready for his Master. - 2. Called. They were called by Jesus, as he opened the talk with the question, "What seek ye?" In calling them Jesus appealed to their awakened interest. They had caught something of John's conception of the character of Jesus, caught the prophetic rather than the legal view of him the Lamb of God in spotlessness. meekness, inno cence, in the sacrifice 'he should make of himself, in the sufferings be should undergo, in his being possessed, chosen, offered up by God rather than a lamb owned, passed on and offered by some priest, in the real atonement he would make for the wholo world instead of lamb offered by a man for an "individ ual, or for a few families, or for one nation alone and then make only a pic torial atonement. These two men saw the signs of suffering In his face after the 40 days in the wilderness, and whether they got the full idea or not, they wanted to hear him tell the story. 3. Attracted. Added to their own awakened interest was his wonderful magnetism, if that Is the word to use. that appealed to their whole religious nature. They didn't understand it. No one does. He appealed to their rea son as they went with him to talk it over; to their previous experience in trying to do the will of God: to their confidence, as he saw they were embar rassed and stammered out their re quest for a private interview in the question they asked him which he met so graciously with his invitation to go with him to his temporary stopping place. By his attractiveness, his aid to their embarrassment with his question. his wonderful tones of voice, his open ness of heart for their entrance, he completely won them. They went along wlthi him feeling perfectly at home. We Can n.ever know what was said in that interview. They cuna forth rrom i me visit wild nearts atnrui They inew he was their Messiah. What he said to them was almost too sacred ever to talk about. We know the name of one Andrew, brother of Simon, af terwards called Peter. I am sure the other was tho writer of this story for two reasons. One is that John is in the habit of referring to himself In that Indirect way; the other is that ho says it was tho tenth hour. He wrote this gospel perhaps CO years after the event and he would hardly have recorded tho hour on hear say, while ho would have been very apt to remember that golden hour out of which his whole future life grew ana to have referred to it In just that way. He remembered tho music of that voice and the charm of that hospital ity. It was his birth hour. II. A Throng of Helpers Gathered 41-5 L "He flndeth first his own "brother Simon, and saith unto him. We have found tho Messiah (which is. being In terpreted. Christ). He brought him unto Jesus. Jesus looked upon him and said. Thou art Simon the son of John; thou shalt be called Cephas (which is, by interpretation. Peter). "On the morrow he was minded to go forth into Galilee, and he flndeth Philip; and Jesus saith unto him. Fol low me. Now Philip was from Beth Bald a, of the city of Andrew and Pe ter. Philip flndeth Nathaniel, and-saith unto him. We have round him of whom Moses In the law. and th prophets wrote. Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. And Nathaniel said unto him. Can any good thing come out Naxar eth? Philip saith unto him. Come and see. Jesus saw Nathaniel coming to him, and saith of him. Behold an Is raelite indeed., in whom is no guile! Nathaniel saith unto him. Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him. Before, Philip called thee, when thou wast lUnder the fig tree, I saw thee. Nathaniel answered him. Rabbi, thou art the son of God; thou art King of Israel." 1. Assistants Each became an as sistant because of his love for Christ and love for his family and friends. Christ's - kingdom began to spread at once in the normal way. the only way It ever can spread one told another. That is the first law each an assist ant to Christ, a messenger, a winner of souls. The second law Is that each began right where he was. Andrew went right after his brother, who was probably In the near neighborhood. I am quite sure that John, if he was the other, went after his brother, James. Those two pairs of brothers were the first in the apostolic list. And Jesus didn't wait, but went for a man whom he knew, Philip, a young-man from the neighborhood of these brothers. Then Philip sought out a friend of I his, Na thaniel. We can count five secured at once, and likely John brought James Into the list, which would make six to go with Jesus to that wedding in Cana. 2. Tact Tact is a sense of touch that reveals what a thing is. We can shut our eyes and tell that a given thing is wood or metal or paper by the touch. Jesus saw beneath the volatile nature of Simon something that would harden, in the atmosphere of faith and struggle, 'into rock to use in the build ing of his church. He felt the guile lessness of Nathaniel and told him so. He got- in "touch" with his prospective followers. That's the way wo have to do if we succeed in winning disciples for htm. WHAT THE MASTERS SAV. The question put I y Jesus to the fol lowing disciples, "What seek ye?" was the first breath of tne winnowing fan which the Baptist had warned them the Messiah would use. It was not the gruff interrogation of one who would not have his retirement invaded, nor his own thoughts interrupted, but a kindly invitation to open their minds to htm. It was meant to help them to understand their own purposes and to ascertain what they expected in fol lowing Jesus. "What seek ye?" Have yju any object deeper than mere curl osity? For Christ desires to be fol lowed Intelligently, or not at all. At 11 times he used the winnowing fan to blow away the chaff of the great crowds that followed him. and leave the - few immovably resolute souls Dods. The finding of one was not the find ing of the other. For John and An drew there was the talk with Jesus through the hours of that never-to-be-forgotten evening; for Simon, the heart-searching word, convincing him he was known and his future read off; for Philip, a peremptory command, and for Nathaniel a gracious courtesy, dis arming htm of prejudice, assuring him of a perfect sympathy In the breast of the Lord. Thus there are those who seek Christ, those whom Christ seeks for himself, those who come without doubts and those who come with doubts. Roees. PERTINENT QUESTIONS. 1.
