ElBLE SCHOOL LESS0I1 Sunday, Hay 16th By M. S. rrigg Golden Text: blessed in him.' All nations shall Genesis IS: IS. be Married At Shenandoah, Iowa. Last Thursday Mr. Otto Wolfarth of Plattsmouth, and Miss Violet Keil of Murray were united in mar riage at Shenandoah. Iowa, and the event was broadcasted over the radio from the Henry Pield seation. The friends when they returned did not have to be informed of the happy event, and were ready with their congratulations. The bride is the accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Keil and is favorably known to all of the people in this portion of the county. She is one of the most agreeable and highly esteemed young ladies of Murray and is surely deserving the excel lent husband which she is getting in Mr. Wolfarth. They are visiting at the present at the home of the bride but will arrange to go to hose keeping in the near future. On last Tuesday afternoon Mrs. John Hobscheibt, gave a miscellane ous shower for her friend, Mrs. Wol farth, and which was held at the home cf the bride's parents as the home was large and commodious. A verv large number of the friends of this very popular young woman for the traveling there is were present to enjoy the gathering 'sandy and gravely count'rv and to extend con well wishes to the TIi;j Friend cf God An eld man sat in his tent door in the heat of the day, and by he way it was hot, too, for that was a hot country, and the sun shone on the blistering sands and then was re fracted back into ones eyes with such intensity that people were blinded by the bright light. We see numerous instances of people being blind in the far east desert lands, and this was partially the cause. This old man was Abraham, and he was 90 years old. We, of our day, would call this being pretty well along in years, and considering the manner in which people live in these times, it is, too. His wife, Sarah, was also in the tent. Now she was S9 years old, just ten years younger than her husband. Thev lived in a tent and could pitch it anywhere they desired. They were located at this time under one of the towering oaks of Mamre. Now Mamre was a portion of the country in Palestine, located near the city of Hebron, where Abraham had gone after the selection of the rich valley of the Jordan by Lot. Abraham's nephew. While Abraham was a rich chieftain shciek, he lived in a tent, and why, do you suppose? He was in the cattle business and had cattle on a thousand hills. lie was rich, and had besides all his cattle, herds of sheep, goats and camels and horses as well as silver and gold, and he had to be so situated that he could go where he could look after his stock. The hospitality of the Arab sheik is proverbial, as well as their craftiness. Abraham was the friend of God; and being such wr.s his ambassador. It was his duty to show kindness to all God's people. As he sat thus in the heat of the day, there appeared unto him three people, and as he raised his head and saw them ap proaching, he ran to meet them, not withstanding his one less than a hundred years of age. He saluted them and asked them to stop under the shade of the historic trees of Mamre. Abraham urged them to stop, say ing he would prepare a meal for his three visitors. He had his wife, j Sarah, make some bread, while he : rushed to a nearby herd antl brought Ja young calf, tender and juicy, which ,he had one of the servants dress and I his wife prepare for them to cat. In their feet, ever much and as the repeated Gclden text of the Bible, John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son. that whosoever believeth on him might not perish but have ever lasting life." After this conversation the Angels vanished and Abraham went back to his own home. That evening Angels visited the home of Lot, appearing unto him as he sat at the gate of the city, and he asked them into hi3 heme, but they'said, "We must abide in the- streets.." Lot, like his uncle, Abraham, insisted on them enjoying his hospitality and they could go on their way in the morning. When he had sent them to his home and went there himself, some of the people of Sodom, being suspicious, came and demanded the strangers, but Lot, be ing loyal to the trust and determined to proteet his guests, refused and en deavored to persuade them to leave and not do anything wicked. T,hey be came enraged and attacked Lot, when one of the Angels reached out and pulled Lot in and shut the door. The excited mob, for such they had become, endeavored to break down the door and the Angel smote the crowd outside with blindness, so they cemld not see and they were unable to do anything to injure Lot or his guests. Then the Angels told Lot that God was going to destroy the city and for him to go and ask his sons-in-law to tome with their wives and depart from the city. They laughed Lot to scorn, and when the morning had :ome the two Angels tCok Lot, his wife and the two unmarried daugh ters who were at home, and hastened with them out of the city, charging them not to look back, which behest Lot's wife did not heed and she was therefore turned into a pillar of salt. Lot persisted in being allowed to go to the city of Zoar, which is near Hebron, and they were able to ar rive at the gates of the city by even tide. The next morning Lot looked towards Sodom, anu saw the whole country in flames. Thus was the city of Sodom destroyed as predicted by the Angels. There was not the re quired ten righteous persons to save the city, as per God's covenant with Abraham. Christ said unto the followers who went to him on the Mount: "Ye are the salt of the earth," and again, "A city sat on a hill cannot be hid." If Christians are the salt of the earth, then they are to save the earth, and or not.
