M. G. Kime, who is one of the pro gressive farmers near Nehawka, is this week concluding the harvesting of his corn, and is very well pleased with his yield this year, having much over a hundred acres of orn going all the way from 45 to 73 bushels to the acre. With the corn selling at the ruling rrices as at the present there is no particular reason why Mr. Kime should not be well pleased that he is a farmer. Much of the corn over the county is yielding a very low averace. winch is to te re gretted, but even with the better price it makes the farm life not the most enviable. R. E. Foster, living south of Union, has a very good yield of corn this vear and will average between 35 and 40 b-wshels to the acre. "Will Cease Fanning O. T.

Golden Text: "Thou shalt love the Lord, thy God. with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mini; ard th.v neighbor as thyself." Luke. 10:27. Good neighbors are a blessiner cf endless delight, what would we not give for good neighbors, and what would we do without them. In larce cities we have no neighbors, in small er cities, the one who live n.xt to us are neighbors, in still smaller eomiiianiiies all are ones' neighbors while in sparcely reftlel districts, our neighbors sometimes live miles away. Alexander Selkirk, who became Robenson Crusoe, when cast on the island of Juan Fernandes by a ship wreck exclaimed, when no neighbor appeared to comfort or minister or cheer him in his loneliness: "I am out of humanity's reach: I must finish my journey alone. Never hear the sweet music of I start at the sound of my The beast, that roam ove own. the plain, My form with indifference see; They are so unacquainted with man Their tameness is shocking to me." Today's lesson occurs at the time of the closing of tlip period of popu larity of the Earthly ministrations of the Master, at the time when the persecution was coming. At one of the gatherings, where Jesus was teaching and healing, a certain lawyer stood up to question and if posible confuse the Savior, lie wished to make trial of the Master and dis comfort Him. Now the lawyer, as lawyer is meant in the lesson was one versed in the Mosaic law, and one able to interpret it. He came with what he thought was a stumping question, when he asked, saying. "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" Jesus answered. "What is written in the law? How readest thou?" Quoting the lawyer said, "Thou shalt love thy Lord, thy God, with all thy heart and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength and with all thy mind: and thy neighbor as thyself." Christ said. "Thou haa answered right, do this and thou shMt live." The law yer desiring to justify himself said unto Jesus. "And who is my neigh bor?" Jesus then answered and said: "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and departed, leaving him half dead. "And by chance a certain priest was eoinc; down that way; and when he saw him he passed by on the other , side. And in a like manner a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed on the other side. "But a certain Samaritan, as he iourneved. came where he was; and when he saw him, he was moved with compassion, and came to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on them oil and wine; and sat him on his own beast, and brought him t to an inn, and took care of him. j "And on the morrow he took out I ii-rt cliitlirt ere. o Ti A p-j VP Tl'.eTTl tO the i l .1 W c.lllllugut C i ho3t, and said, 'Take care of him, t and whatsoever thou spenetest more, ; when I come back again I will repay thee.' "Which of these three thinkest j thou proved neighbor unto him that 1 fell amone the robbers?" j The lawyer said, "He that showed mercy on him.," Yours for Service! Radios lines.

This is a wonderful parable, r.rd of suc h strong charac t eristics that a certain fraternal organization has used it in the seei-'-i woik, to teach the ie,sou of brotherly love-. ; The setting of this b-.s:. m might make it more forceabh. The trip from Jerusalem down to Jericho, was about IS miles, through a deserted ! country, which was danger to travel from bavins almost impa-vS-I hie roads and being infested with bands of robbers then, as well as at the present time. ; ; no one is permitted to trail except an escort that now, go oyer this aecem:)an:"s them. Jerusalem is situated on the back bone of the mountain, about halt" a mile or 2.500 feet above the b'vel of the ocean, while Jericho is about 00 0 feet below, the sea. as the- Jordon valley is lower than, the surface ef the ocean, making Jerusalem 34to feet above Jericho, so as it was said it is all down hill. The heart of this lesson is "Who is Thy Neigh bor." It is not the man whose back fence comes up agcir.s; your own. or the man you play golf with, bin j the man who needs your assistance, i This lesson is not meant to convey (the impression that all priests and preachers are unrellaPie and wuhl not render assistance when needed. ; but that the one who does the good act. does it out of love- for hi? fellow ; man. The lawyer, in asking who I is my neighbor, opened a way for Jesus to tell him just how he could inherit eternal life. Samaritans are not necessarily all good, they had been separated from the Jews uvder the reign of R"ho boan. son of Scl-'-mou, when J-.i-o- boan, the son cf Nob:'t, v. ho erected. people to away the ! an idel in worship.
