Now it's known largely as the col lege that some football team is keep ing. And sport writers say that more money is now being wagered on football than on any other sport we have. And it doesn’t take an ex pert’s eye to see that, each season, football is becoming more and more commercialized, more and more a professional, profit-making industry. Well, if football is to go the way of wrestling and horse - racing and prize-fighting, it'll pretty soon be so that about the only game a chap can play without fixing somebody beforehand will be solitaire. Still, being a football devotee does keep you out in the open air. But you could say that same thing for a seagull.

IRVIN S. COBB TkeìflanlUkoOÓ IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL Tales and UNDAY I CHOOL Lesson Tradition* from American Political History FRANK I. HAGEN ELMO SCOTT WATSON A CANDIDATE “ANNOUNCES” ON THE morning of April 4, 1900, the New York World printed what has been described as “one of the most curious announcements of a presidential candidae) ever made, one of the most naive dec larations ever given out by any man who had even the briefest parts in American politics.” Admiral George Dewey, the “He ro of Manila,” had given an inter view in which he said in part: “If the American people want me for this high office, I shall be only too willing to serve them . . . Since studying this subject I am con vinced that the office of the Presi dent is not such a very difficult one to fill, his duties being mainly to execute the laws of Congress. Should I be chosen for this exalted position I would execute the laws of Congress as faithfully as I have always executed the orders of my superior.” “Not such a difficult office to fill,” indeed! That was a jolt to the hero- worshiping American public. Al ready it had begun to suspect that its idol had feet of clay. It had gone wild over his victory in the Philippines. Upon his return to America, it gave him the recep tion such as few conquering heroes had. It had built a triumphal arch in his honor in New York and had raised money to buy a house in Washington for him. Not long after his return, he had taken a second wife who was much younger than he was and he had deeded the gift house to her. That didn’t sit so well with his worshipers, nor did the social ambitions of his new wife. Moreover, a matter of re ligious prejudice was injected into the gossip about the Deweys. Dewey had been approached on the subject of being- a candidate for President and had disclaimed any such ambition. But a “Stop Bryan!” element in the Democrat ic party had persisted in promot ing his candidacy and at last he yielded to the temptation. Then he made his amazing an nouncement and the public im mediately turned against him. Where he had been previously praised, he was now ridiculed. His candidacy was generally character ized as the "climax to a series of unfortunate mistakes.” As quick ly as that candidacy had blos somed, it withered. America ap parently would elect a military hero President, as witness William Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor and Ulysses S. Grant. But, as for a naval hero,—George Dewey was the first, and so far, the last, to find out that a sea dog isn’t wanted in the White House! A STURDY CAMPAIGNER ‘THERE is a physical side to this - business of campaigning for the presidency. In the earlier days, candidates went personally into the hinter lands, making, not one-night stands but brief pauses interrupted to move on to a newer and perhaps more fertile field. It was a tre mendous strain on them physically. Today, with improved travel ac comodations and the help of radio, campaigning is not the arduous task of former years, but it has its moments. William Jennings Bryan, torch bearer of extraordinary record in politics, doubtless is the man who proved the sturdiest campaigner of them all. And even he almost broke down. Bryan was physically fit and energetic when he first stumped the country in 1896, bearing his cross of gold. He insisted on pa tronizing the local trains, riding in the day coaches at the outset of his tour. In that campaign, Bryan deliv ered as many as 20 speeches a day, a great part of them from the rear of his slow-moving train. In Tennessee, his throat began to balk. When this was known, many curatives were pressed upon him. One bottle of a remedy for hoarse ness was tested by Benton Mc Millen of Tennessee and found to contain a caustic fluid which might have injured Bryan permanently. It was toward the end of that campaign that Bryan began to ap proach exhaustion. He had com pleted a three-days’ series of speeches in Chicago. Despite his splendid physique, the strain began to tell. He was scheduled to travel north of Chicago when his "loop” engagements were ended. But so trying had been the requirements of his tour that it was necessary to delay the start of the party for more than two hours. Happiness | | | I | | Be cheerful! Which will you do— smile, and make others happy, or be crabbed, and make everyone around you miserable? The amount of happiness you can produce is in- calculable if you show a smiling face and speak pleasant words. There Is no joy like that which springs from a kind act or pleasant deed, and you may feel it at night when you rest, and at morning when you rise, and through all the day when about your business.

GOLDEN TEXT—There is neither bonc nor free....for ye all are one in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:28. PRIMARY TOPIC — Paul’s Shortest Let ter. JUNIOR TOPIC—Paul’s Shortest Letter. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— A Slave Becomes a Brother. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— Christ Transforming Social Relationships. Letters are always interesting, and especially so when they bring good news. The brief epistle to Philemon is one of unusual charm. Paul writes to Philemon, a Christian brother in Colosse, to inform him that he is sending back to him Onesimus, who was apparently Philemon’s brother (v. 16) but who had through misfortune and sin (vv. 18, 19) become a slave. Evidently, he had stolen from Philemon what he needed to enable him to run away, and had ultimately come to Rome. Having reached this great city he no doubt was satisfied that he had placed himself beyond the reach of anyone who knew him. But he had reckoned without God, who not only knew where he was (see Ps. 139: 7-12) but also what he needed. He is brought into touch with the im prisoned apostle, Paul, and through his ministry the fugitive slave be comes a “brother beloved in the Lord” (v. 16). How marvelous is the grace of God, and how patiently he deals with those who attempt to flee even from his love! Our study of this epistle centers around four great words. I. Appreciation (vv. 4-8). After an introductory word Paul speaks of his love for Philemon, his appreciation of the latter's hospitali ty, his fellowship, and his faith. Is Paul flattering his friend in order that he may grant his re quest? Certainly not, but he is ex pressing his true feelings toward a faithful brother. We need a re vival of Christian courtesy and ap preciation of one another. The man who thinks that he must show that he is true to Christ by treating others with boorish rude ness needs to learn a new lesson from the Lord himself, and from his Word. II. Consideration (w. 9-14). Paul could have kept silent, and encouraged Onesimus to remain with him. He needed help (v. 13) but without the consent of Philemon he would not keep Onesimus (v. 14). At the same time he reminds Phile mon very tactfully that he owes them both loving consideration. We have here a striking illustra tion of the candor and considerate thoughtfulness which should charac terize the dealings of Christians with one another. We need to put away careless trampling upon the rights of others in order that our work may go forward. III. Brotherhood (w. 15-16). The fact of regeneration does not change a man’s social status so far as the world is concerned, but with in the circle of God’s household he becomes a “brother beloved.” Let us look less at the accidents of cir cumstance, education, or birth, which differ and rather magnify the family relationship, for all who are born again are brethren. IV. Partnership (vv. 17-20). Paul counted Philemon not only a benefactor and a brother, but a partner in the great enterprise of God on earth. Partners share both joys and sorrows, gains and losses. They stand by in the hour of need, they plan and labor, weep and re joice together. One wonders what might be accomplished for Christ if all Christians would accord one an other even the ordinary considera tions of partnership. It should be noted in closing that verses 17 and 18 present an illustra tion of the great doctrine of imputa tion. The wrong of Onesimus was to be charged to Paul, and Paul’s standing with Philemon is the basis of his acceptance of Onesimus. Even so the righteousness of Christ is imputed to the believer, because our sins have been laid upon him. What a wonderful Saviour! A Mother's Love No language can express the pow er and beauty and heroism and maj esty of a mother's love. It shrinks j not where man cowers, and grows stronger where man faints, and over the wastes of worldly fortune sends the radiance of its quenchless fidel- ity like a star in heaven.—E. H. Chapin. Spare Hours Earliest Settlements Newport and Portsmouth share with Providence the distinction of being the earliest settlements. Aft er Roger Williams settled at Provi dence in 1636 another band of re- ligious “outcasts” from Massachu- setts, under the leadership of Wil- liam Coddington and Anne Hutch inson, settled at Portsmouth in 1638. When dissension broke out in this colony William Coddington and a group moved on to Newport in 1639. ate Lesson for November 29 © Western Newspaper Union. © Western Newspaper Union.
