ferences with officials of the war and
navj departments with the report
thai his plant now Is turning out
Something like 2.000 Liberty motor
cylinders a day.
Ambassador Sharp at Paris de
scribes the havoc wrought by the
FridayGei man long range gun on
Oood Friday, in a crowded church in
Paris: "At no oilier time could the
destruction hive been SO great, the
Brent church was crowded with wor
shippers, the shell struck the ma
sonry of the church, the large boa?
stones falling inward and crushing
out a hundred lives, besides WOUnd'
inu thai many more. The SCene was
thai of some horrible shambles and
it was not until well into the night
thai all the bodies were recovered.
Among those killed was the secretary
of Switzerland, who was Just leav
ing the church when the shell struck,
ten minutes more and the shell
would have only damaged 'the church
as the services were just over."
The appalling destruction wrought
by this shell, has not in all probabil
ity, been equalled by any single dis
charge of a hostile gun in the cruelty
and horror of the results. The quick
er that a nation that employs such
tactics is mercilessly ground into the
dust the better it will be.
All airplanes manufactured in the
United States for the army and
navy will bear a red white and blue
bull's eye of three concentric rings,
similar to the insignia on the allied
planes, on the wings and vertical red,
white iind blue stripes on the rud
ders. The first Henry Ford submarine
chaser, the Eagle class, will be
launched at Detroit in June. The
Ford plant will turn out one chaser
per day for a few months. Increas
ing the capacity to three a day be

At our present rate of expenditure
it will take us eight years to get as
badly in debt as Germany Is right
now.

atonement, the glorious resurrection,
himI second coming of Christ, are an
disturbed bjr the world tragedies of
the present hour.
I. Peter'e Confession of Christ (vv.
27-M.
Two question! Ol Christ provoked
this confession :
1. "Whom do men say that I am?"
(vv. U7, -2H).
This question referred to the opin
ions of the people regarding Jesus.
Some believed hlin to be John the
BaptlSL some Klljuh, and some one of
the prophets. They all recognized him
to he a teacher or prophet with more
than human authority and power. To
day, as then, there is a diversity of
opinion m mug people os to Jesus
Christ. Some thluk that BO was only
a man, others that he was a great
teacher, hut nothing more. Jesus was
not content with this DcknowlodgmenL
Had he been sutlsli. d with this, he
would not have been molested in
Jeruselemt for the i mu willingly ac
knowledged him as much more than a
human teacher.
2. "Whom suy ye that 1 am?" (vv,
29, 30).
II. Jesus Tesching Concerning the
Crosi (vv. 81-88),
Christ charged the disciples not to
make pnblic his M -inhship, as that
would precipitate 1 1 j - crisis. The dis
ciples needed much instruction yet to
prepare them for the crucial hour of
1 he cross. as .
1. What he tuughi (v. 81).
(1) "The Son ol Had must suffer
many things."
lie suffered physical weariness and
hunger, ridicule and contempt, ami
even mis understand I ng ami lack of ap
preciation on the pint of his friends
and disciples.
(2) "He rejected of the elders, chief
priests and scribes."
These were the nation's official rep
resentatives, the very ones who should
have known anil received Christ and
recommended his reception n the part
of the nation. Truly, he came to his
own, and his own received him not
John 1 :11. To be rejected by one's
own friends and relatives Is doubly
painful.
(8) "Be killed."
This announcement was startling to
the disciples. The; had not yet come
to realise that red. iptlon was to be
accomplished through the pa salon ami
the cross. Jesus now Mates with
deflnlteness ami certainty thai lie
must die mi the cro - This uecoaslty
was due primarily to the fact that it
was the divine purpose to make the
death of Christ the hear! and or,- of
the atonement ; ami also, to human
hatred mid opposition
(4) "Rise again. "
ThougltthU was utterly liicninpj .
hetisible to the di-cipcs. be BUOW8
them that this would lie the glorious
Issue of his death.
III. The Coet of Disciplethip (v. 14).
The law of th Christian life i
Mlffeilig. To folio . CbrlSl means to
turn one's hack Bpou the vorlil. To
repudiate the worM means to Incur
flic hatred of the World To be t'liris
UanS, therefore, means to share
Christ's sufferings.
1. There must be denial of s. If (. ).
This means the sufferings and lhatns
which lie in the path of loyaltj to
!oii. To live the godly life mtsitl
suffering (2 Tim. 3:11').
3. Christ must be followed (v. 34).
This means to have the mind of
Christ (Phil. 2:5y and to perform the
service of Christ.
IV. The Issue of Diecipleehlp (vv.
Bvat),
The Messed issue of following Christ
Is a life of freedom lu re ami now, and
eternal life hereafter. Such sacrlrice
enriches the life that now is, and pre
pares for the enjoyment of the life
which la to come. To harter the fu
ture life for present enjoyment Is most
f'Millsh, for the choi.es of life are
fraught with eternal leasee. Those
who refuse to follow In Christ's foot
steps shall be separated from hlin at
his glorious appearing (v. 38; compare
2 The. 1:7-10). Are you prepared
