Zechariah 4:6. Eugene Sandow was a professional strongman in the 1800s who made his living performing acts of great daring in which he pitted his strength against nature's. Once, in San Francisco, he agreed to wrestle a 530-pound male lion. The lion's feet were carefully mittened and its mouth covered 'with a muzzle. Thus, only its power and quickness could be used against Mr. Sandow. s With only his bare hands for protection, Sandow entered -; the cage of the lion that had killed its keeper just one week earlier. The animal charged and Sandow stepped aside. Quickly he grabbed the lion around the neck and with one arm and around its middle with the other. He lifted the i animal shoulder high, gave it a "bear hug" and hurled it . across the cage. f The startled lion roared as it rushed Sandow again. This time it struck a blow toward its adversary's head. Sandow ' barely jerked his head away in time and the lion tamer outside the cage screamed for Sandow to get out. But Sandow side-stepped again, got another grip, and gave the lion another tremendous squeeze. This time the lion clutched and scratched in spite of its mittens. But Sandow hung on and wouldn't let go. Again he flung the animal away as the onlookers screamed for him to get out. Then, of all things, Sandow turned his back to the lion and waited for the animal to spring. The lion rushed and sprang directly onto the strongman's back. Sandow threw up his arms, grabbed the animal around the neck and flung it over his head. Some time later a rematch was staged and Sandow again entered the cage. The lion would not fight him, even when the strongman lifted the animal up onto his back and walked around the cage with the lion over his shoulders. The Bible says that the devil goes around like a roaring lion. (1 Peter 5:8) It also says that if we resist the devil, he will flee from us (James 4:7). But only in the strength of God's spirit can we defeat the devil. LLOYD W. PERRIN, Pastor , (Continued from Page 5) Irrigon and Delores Rueber, Echo, sister of the groom.
