Williams returned -yes terday from a tour in the interest of the New Era movement and the home mission work in Willamette Presby tery. He reports universal interest in the new things being done In the churches. President Lee and Mr. Williams were speakers at a confer ence held Wednesday evening at Woodhum, at which all the churches in the northern end of Marion county were represented. It was planned at at that meeting that four churches with Woodhurn as a center would be , ""ted under one principal minister in somewhat the same way that the Vol let late cnurrnes or r.astern cities are nrramxett. this minister is to oe paid a snlnry lnrge enough so that he can employ help needed, is to have automobile and is to be held rcspon ail le for meeting the spiritual needs of all unchurched communities in his district !

Golden Text Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Matt. 5:7. Many important events transpire in the time between this and last Sun- ay's lesson. After the death of 'Mos es Joshua led the people across the Jordan river and captured the city of ericho. Another great city, by the name of Ai, was taken. King Jabin of the North was defeated and the land divided among the different tribes of Israel. Thus we see the. promise We should remember that the stran made to Abraham being fulfilled In , ger was also included as well as the he days of Joshua. The account of the establishment of th cities of refuge is the real be ginning of order in the different com munities. The Plan of Jehovah . We are told that God spoke to Josh ua. He is continually speaking to us but often we are unable to hear. He speaks, by his prophets, through the written word and by the voice of na- ture.

FOR SMALL NATIONS OF TO KARL t llll.DKRS.HLT PRINCIPLES UK FOI.M) Vi Kl) Heavens and not realize Hi. omni presence? Truly th man ia blind who cannot find "Sermons in stones; books in the running brooks, and good in everything." One lesson to learn from th .elec tion of theae cities is that of divine merry. It waa mercy that caused God to make a promise of redemption to Mother Eve. It waa mercy that saved I-ot and hia family from death in the city of Sodom. It waa mercy UjX gave the cities of refuge, th plan of alvation, and th Holy Book. By reading it w know that "The quality of mercy 1, not (trained; It droppeth aa the gentle rain from Heaven upon the place beneath. It is twice blest, it blesses him that give and him that takes." Another lesson is that of security which is needed by alL The Vr- needs a neat, the ahip need the safety of the harbor, and man needs a refuge from the world. We find safety from the avenger of blood in th presence of Christ I should realize that "Oth er refuge have I none. Hangs my helples head on thee." The man who had unintentionally killed his neighbor was instructed to flee at once lest he be overtaken by the avenger and his life taken. It Is just possible thai he might make some such excuse aa "I dont like the man who ahowed me the road," or "There are hypocrites in the city," or "III think about tha matter," or "I dont know why the road turn, to the right." But on second thought I do not believe he would do this because his life was in danger. Too many times men make such excuse for not entering the spiritual refuge. ' II. The Cities Selected I find the meaning of the name, of tn cities to be significant. Kedeah means holy place. Moses standing in the presence of God was told to re- BMne hia sandals because the ground was holy. Schecherc means shoulder. In the Garden of Gethsemene the shoulders of Christ bore the sins of the world. Hebron means a friend. He i, a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. Bezar means a fort ification. "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most high shall abide under the wings of the Al mighty." Ramoth means heights. To reach Christ the world must climb up ward; to go away from him always means to go down. Golan means a circle. We are continually surrounded jby his love and mercy. I Jewish people' and could find refuge ! in the city, for God is no respector of person4.,. Somehow we believe that the League of Nations is to be the' great city of refuge for the nations of earth.' Here the small country is to receive Justice and fair play the same as those with great power, , However, unless the principles laid i down in the Sermon on the Mount dominate, the league can only end in disaster and humiliation.
