The blind man who had been healed had been cast out of the synagogue because he had given the glory for his healing to Jesus Christ, (see ch. 9). The door to that which stood for all that was sacred to him had been closed. Whither should he turn? Look! here comes someone seeking him. It is Jesus, who now declares that the door which men had closed was no true door at all, for he says, “I am the door of the sheep.” Those who pro fessed to be shepherding the flocks and who had cast this poor man out were but hirelings. Now he speaks to the One who says, “I am the good Shepherd.” Someone has suggested that the parable of the good shepherd pre sents the whole day in the life of the shepherd and his flock, morning, noon, and night, and typifies the ministry of Christ on our behalf in the varying circumstances of life. I. In the Morning (John 10:1-6). Flocks were sometimes kept in the field at night, as was the case on the night when Jesus was born in Bethlehem. But ordinarily they were brought into a sheepfold where many flocks gathered for protec tion. Thieves would climb the wall to steal sheep, but the shepherd, when he came in the merning to lead forth his flock, entered in by the door. He called out his flock by name and they knew his voice. It is said that only a sick sheep will follow a stranger, which may explain why so many false isms of our day appeal to the sick and lead them away from the Good Shep herd. Do you know his voice? Have you responded to his call? Will you fol low him? Decide now. II. In the Heat of the Day (w. 7-10). Perhaps the sheep need to enter the fold to rest, if so he is the door. But they may wish to go out to the pasture—again he is the door. Belonging to Christ is not bondage. If any man enter in by Christ, the Door, he is free to go in and out, to find pasture, to live for and to serve him. “The Door.” What a striking fig ure! It is a means of entry, the only way in. Every door has two sides and the side we are on de termines whether we are inside or outside—saved or lost.

They come to kill and to scatter. Where is the shepherd? If he is only a hireling, serving for what may “be in it” for him, he will flee. How perfectly this pic tures religious leaders who, in spite of their swelling words and ingra- tiating manners, desert the flock in the hour of adversity. Fair weather friends are they, who disappear when darkness and danger appear. In the darkest hour Jesus is near est at hand. He never fails. He has no fear, for has he not tasted the bitter death of Calvary’s tree for you and for me? He is the good shepherd. He giveth his life for the sheep. Those who have put their trust in him shall never be put to shame. Because he has given his life for the sheep we must not forget nor neglect the truth found in verse 16. There are “other sheep” that have not yet been brought into the fold. They must be brought in, and we. on His behalf, must bring them, that there may “be one fold and or shepherd.” to B. T.

OFFER GOOD WITH EITHER BRAND TEAR OUT THIS ADVERTISEMENT AS A REMINDER I i | | | | | I LITTLE girl, reared in pov erty in the backwoods of Vir ginia, destined for a brief and none too happy life, was to grow up and bear a child whose career more than fulfilled her high est dreams for him. Born at Patterson’s Creek, Va., in 1784, Nancy Hanks went at the age of twelve to live with her aunt and uncle, Thomas and Elizabeth Sparrow, in Mercer county , Vir ginia. She had a chance to attend school there, and made the most of it. In a community where many of the men could neither read nor write, she learned to do both, notes a writer in the Indianapolis News. She was skilled at needlework, too, and hired out to families in the neighborhood. Though she worked for wages she was never regarded as a servant, but sat at table with the household wherever she went. Report says she was tall and handsome, with a frank, open countenance and a voice pleas ing both when she sang and when she talked. A young apprentice named Thom as Lincoln was learning the trade of carpentry in the shop of Joseph Hanks, uncle of Nancy. The two young people were attracted to each other, and were married on June 12, 1806. Thomas took his bride home to a tiny house fourteen feet square. He could not write his own name until the ambitious Nancy taught him how. But his ambition could not keep pace with hers. Her dis- A Nancy Hanks, Mother of President Abraham Lincoln. j j I | I appointment at his easy-going ways was forgotten in her children; first, a little girl, Sarah; then, in 1809, the son known to history as Abra ham Lincoln. Between this child and this back- woods mother there was a power ful bond of sympathy. They under stood each other without words. Perhaps she felt in him her own fierce hunger for learning, for a larger, richer world. She was thirty-four years old, and Abraham Lincoln was nine, when she fell ill of an epidemic disease known in southern Indiana (to which the family had migrated) as the milk sickness. In seven days she was dead. Abraham helped his father to make her coffin out of green lum ber cut with a whipsaw, helped to bury her in a forest clearing. There was no ceremony. This troubled the boy until several months later, they secured a wandering preacher to deliver a funeral sermon over the lonely grave. His mother’s influence stayed with him always, and was voiced in that most famous of filial epi taphs: “All that I am or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother.” 0% WHO AMBUSHED YC PLANNING 10 Often MiM NCING SCHOOL, V0U DM The March of Lifo In the march of life don’t heed the order of “right about” when you j know you are about right.—O.

They didn’t believe Rose when she said she made this startlingly pretty dress (Pattern 1224). She did though, even the buttonholes! However, the same stunning effect can be had by sewing the buttons on for trimming only. The ele gance of the princess-like lines, the eclat of the heart shaped sleeves and withal its ease of construction make the question read “How can I help but make this dress?” It is available in sizes 12 to 20 (30 to 40 bust).

In sitting the back should be erect or inclined backward. The legs from hips to knees should be approximately at right angles to the body, although they may incline slightly downward. The position of the legs from knees to feet is of minor importance. The limbs may be perpendicular or inclined out. Crossing the feet is sometimes restful to one foot and then the other.
