LUNDQUIST, Dean of the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. © Western Newspaper Union. ks about Lesson for November 15 Apaches Going Sissy. ANTA MONICA, CALIF.— A missionary on an Arizona S reservation says the Apache, once the fiercest of the tribesmen, is going plum’ sissy, and when a movie company took a group of Indian extras on location these original Americans, being stripped for action, got terrible cases of sunburn. They’d worn clothes so long their tender skins couldn’t stand the heat. There’s a lesson here, although, so far as the victim is concerned, it’s probably too late to do anything about it. Once we’d backed the noble red man into a pair of $3 pants we had him tamed. Sitting Bull, in war bonnet and buckskins, was a splendid savage, but, wearing over alls and a hickory shirt, he became just a brunette farm Irvin S. Cobb hand. The derby hat may be the home liest creation ever devised for hu man use, but it’s the crowning tri umph of civilization, and the most pacifying for alien folks, as wit ness Haile Selassie, looking now rather like a Filipino bellhop on his Sunday off. Humans Becoming Monkey-Like. A professor of psychology ad vances the thought that mankind, in ages to come, may be headed for the all-fours posture which once the species did use—if you accept the evolutionary theory, which most of us do, because we like to think of some people we know as having had monkey-like creatures for ancestors. We say to ourselves, the poor things aren’t entirely over it yet. But the learned gentleman who’s trying to lift the veil of the future overlooks the lessons of the present. He should study New York and Newport society when European royalty is in our midst. ♦ * ♦ Denouncing the Baby Derby. Whon Prime Minister Hepburn de nounced Toronto's so-called baby derby as “the most revolting, dis gusting exhibition ever put on in a civilized country” a lot of us gave three loud, ringing cheers. That eccentric Canadian million aire, who left his fortune for a con test seemingly devised to prove that the human species has a strain of Potomac shad in it, unintentionally came near to making cheap and sordid the loveliest thing on this earth, which is motherhood. To see families engaged in a race to bring babies and yet more ba bies into the world, merely on the hope of getting paid for it; to realize the certainty of vulgar squabbling over the prize, to know that inevita bly lawsuits will absorb most of the money—well, there are many who oppose birth control. But de liberately fostered birth uncontrol may have its drawbacks, eh, what? • * * The Fate of Big Bolshevists. Here’s what has happened to the original Bolshevist leaders, the fa thers of the Soviet setup: Trotsky, in exile and due to stay there if he values his health; Kam- eneff, exiled, recalled, executed last August; Zinovieff, executed; Rykoff, demoted, arrested and trial impend ing, hence regarded as bad insur ance risk; Radek in the same fix and said to be worried, and I wouldn’t blame him; Tomsky, com mitted suicide to avoid something even more unpleasant; Kiroff, as sassinated ; Mikoyan, got out in time and stayed out; Bukharin, under suspicion and arrest impending, odds against, 9 to 5; Evdokimoff, ex ecuted; Smirnoff, executed; Lenin, died a natural death, but then Lenin always was different; Stalin, Bub- noff and Krylenko, all going strong, but you never can tell, so would do well not to play too far in ad vance. • • • War Vs. Preparedness. As one who saw the first few months and the last few months of warfare on the Western front, I’m like nearly every other man or woman who witnessed those things —I hate war. It’s the next morning of drunken glory. It's a stench, an obscenity, a vain wastefulness, an unutterable indecency. It’s a machine which sucks in at the hopper the beauty, the youth, the hope of the world and spews out from the spout the fin ished product — broken bodies blinded eyes, maddened brains; dead men and dying men and ruined men. But because we are against war and because we believe the best in surance for continued peace is prop er preparedness in times of peace, and because we behold half cf civili zation on the edge of war again and wonder where they’ll strike after they’ve torn one another's throats, we do sort of worry to see our country cut down on its defenses. IRVIN 8. COBB. ©— WNU Service. Certain of Milady's Vote THE HEROISM OF CHRISTIAN FAITH LESSON TEXT—Acts St:IS. 13. 27-34; Romans 9:1-5. GOLDEN TEXT—Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13. PRIMARY TOPIC—On the Castle Steps. JUNIOR TOPIC—On the Castle Steps. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Taking Risks for Christ. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Risking AU for Christ. We now come to the close of the third missonary journey of Paul. As he came to Jerusalem for the last time in his eventful life he was warned by a prophet, Agabus at Caesarea, that if he went up to Jerusalen he would be bound and given over to the Gentiles. Heroism of the highest and noblest type has characterized the follow ers of Christ in all times. Paul was not one to be deterred from what he believed to be God’s will by the probability that he would suffer. Like all who follow the Lord Jesus Christ in truth he was I. Fearless, in Practice as Well as Theory (Acts 21:12, 13 , 27-34). Many there are who sing, “I’ll go where you want me to go, dear Lord, I’ll be what you want me to be,” or smoothly repeat consecra tion vows, who are frightened away at the slightest difficulty, and who feel that they must have been mis taken about the Lord’s will for their life at the first indication that his guidance would interfere with their comfort or convenience. No such cowardice or vacillation was found in Paul. In the first place, he did not intend to have a holy purpose weakened by disheartening talk. How many young men and women have left a place of sacred meeting with God aglow with the purpose of serving Him in the foreign mission field, and then permitted an uninterested friend or relative or employer to talk them out of it. In the second place, we find Paul carrying through his purpose. When he came to Jerusalem he was coun seled to enter the temple to take a Nazarite vow, and thus to satisfy his enemies. Some have com mended Paul for thus pacifying those who withstood him, others strongly condemn him for yielding. His purpose was good, but his act led to unfortunate results. An in furiated Jewish mob saw him in the temple and wrongfully accused him of defiling the temple by bring ing a Greek into this holy place. A riot ensues, and Paul would have been killed had not the Ro man captain and his band rescued him. Was Paul afraid? He im mediately turned his arrest into an unsurpassed opportunity to give a testimony and to make a defense of his ministry (See Acts 21:40- 22:22). He admonished others to “be instant in season and out of season” (II Tim. 4:2); he practiced what he preached. He constantly urged faith in God, steadfastness in the midst of trials; he gave full proof of these things in his own ministry. In all this he did not seek his own glory, or any honor for his own name. The Christian hero knows nothing of heroism for pub licity’s sake; he does not serve with an eye on the “grandstand.” Paul was actuated by a deep and a genuine II. Concern for the Salvation of His People (Rom 9:1-5). The Christian worker who knows nothing of “great sorrow and un ceasing pain” in his heart over the plight of the unsaved does not fol low in the Pauline succession, nor does he know the heart of the Man of Sorrows. Paul surely did not wish himself separated from Christ, but was so deeply moved that he said he “could wish” it—if it were not wrong—in order to save his brethren. Do we i.eed a revival of com passion in our churches, and in our own hearts, a yearning over the multitudes about us who are as sheep without a shepherd? A Golden Link A mother’s love is indeed the golden link that binds youth to age, and he is still but a child, however time may have furrowed his cheek, or silvered his brow, who can yet recall with a softened heart, the fond devotion, or the gentle chid- ings, of the best friend that God ever gives us.
