Then came He bron, where Abraham dwelt and Za charias Is supposed to have lived. Bethlehem was not alow to follow and still the column crept north. Jerusalem was encompassed round bout and finally fell. The Mount of Olives went with It as also Bethany, where Lazarus lived with his sister. General Allenby is now forcing 111 way north along the road over which Jesus Journeyed with his dis ciple, when returning to Galilee. It was then that be sat at Jacob' well and a Samaritan woman came to draw water while his disciples were) gone in search of food. She was as tonished that he ahould speak to her, ft Samaritan, for the Jews had no dealing with the Samaritans. When the dlsr-lples returned she went Into the city and told her friend to come nd ee. They came dressed in tbelr long flowing white robes and is that what caused the Lord to say. lift up your eyes and look on the fields, for they are white already to harvest. Galilee He just beyond and Jesus loved Galilee of the Gentiles. All his early life was spent at Nazareth, nestled on the side of a hill from the top of which he many times must "have looked at Herman In the north, the Mediterarnean to the west, beyond Jordan to the east and over 8amarla toward Jerusalem to the south.

Then he sent the disciples away and In the early morning he followed them walking over the water. Impetuous Peter tried to go to him, but, lacked (faith. Many wonderful work were done In Ca pernaum, but, It continued In itr sin and he said of it, and thou Ca pernaum, which art exalted unto Heaven, shalt be brought down to hell, Today the very site of the rlty Is uncertain.
