By M. a Brlggs
Leading Thought: "Then entered
in therefore that other disciple also,
who came first to the tomb, and he
saw and believed." John 20:8.
The Lord is Eisen
That those who die in Christ shall
be raised in like manner as he was,
i3 the central thought of Christen
dom, and on the verity of this is
bsed the hope of the Christian be
lief. That Christ was indeed the
Son of God and as such was able to
perform the many things which he
did during his life on earth, such as
of the tomb, and came forth victor
ious over death, hell and the grave,
which are about one and the same.
It was indeed a very sad day for
the band of disciples, when they had
lived with the Master for three years,
were forced to give him up, seeing
him crucified and buried in a cave.
They had very limited understanding
of the things he had told them con
cerning the resurrection and so nat
urally believed him dead.
They all had thought they would
remain loyal to the Master, when he
tad (one so much for them, but when
everyone had,denieu him and this
was further impressed upon them by
the knowledge of each that the others
had done the same, things looked
rather dark to them. True Peter had
not seen the Lord according to what
information we have, after the time
when he had for the last time denied
him, and went out and wept bitter
ly. There is nothing in the scriptures
as to where be went or what he said
and did from the time he came to a
realization of his weakness until we
see him again when Mary came on
the resurrection morn, telling he and
iJohn of the empty tomb.
Indeed the plight of the disciple3
was most miserable. They were with
out hope as they saw the Lord whom
they had In a way believed would re
store material Israel, subjected to the
rule of the Jews and taken outside
the city and crucified, being buried
!in a tomb surrounded by a guard of
soldiers to watch the same and se
curely closed with a huge stone roll

band of erstwhile loyal followers was

and Master. And doubtless they them
selves felt that they were not fit for
the mission they had been selected to
perform. Still, they had been bidden
by the Lord to remain in Jerusalem,
until they should be endued with wis
dom from on high, so they stayed on.
scarcely knowing
what it was all
about.
Such was the condition of the men
who had been chosen to bear the glad
tidings of salvation to a lGst and sin
sick world, and as they were thus
waiting, and the Master had been
dead now three days and it was com-
ng morn or the tmra aay. tney were
discouraged and disconsolate. The

dering who they would get to roll;
the ponderous stone away from the
sepulchre, for it was large and they
could not handle it. They arrive at
the tomb, finding the stone rolled
away and seeing two men sitting in
the tomb where the head of the Mas
ter had lain and the other at his foot.
They wondered just what to do, but
as Peter had been the leader and was
to be the leader of the band, they
hastened (or rather Mary did), run
ning and-.not stopping for anything,
but at the command of Jesus himself,
who appeared unto her saying, "Tell
Peter and the disciples that I will
meet them in the mount in Gallilee."
Then did Mary bear the message to
Peter, and as they find him he was
with John, and they start for the
tomb, both running, but as Peter was
well alone: in years and John was a!-
(young man. he outran Peter and
rived at the tomb first, and stooping
down looked into the tomb, but en-;
tered not. Then came Peter all out
of breath, and entered the tomb, ob-j

aay.
What a great revelation for these
two sturdy fishermen of Gallilee, did
they then think of what Jesus had
said along the shore of the sea of
Gallilee, "Come, follow me, and I will
make you fishers of men."
They then thought what the Mas
ter had said during his life, and of
the time when he, with Peter, James
and John were coming down from the
Mount of Transfie-pratinn. when the
-L i Father had said out of The cloud.
"This is my beloved son. hear ye
hlm and that the Saviour had com-
,'naanded them not to tell this until he
had been risen from the dead.
They then went to their homes, but
that night when they were all as
sembled in the room with the doors
locked (all of the twelve except Ju
das Iscariot, the batrayer of the Mas
ter, and Thomas), the Master ap
peared in their midst, saying, "Peace
be unto you."
The disciples had passed through
many trying circumstances and when
the Lord appeared with no way of
getting in and greeted them, they
were frightened, and to relieve them,
Christ said, "It is I; Come, feel me
and be satisfied," asking for some
thing to eat to convince them.
Thus they were assured, but when
they told Thomas, he doubted and
said, "Unless I shall see the prints
of the nails in hi9 hands and thrust
my hand in his side, I will not be
lieve." This he was offered by the
Master at the next meeting, but be
lieved without the test.
Time ran on and it became weary
some, and Peter, who wanted to be
doing something, probably because of
his restive spirit and again probably
because he was gibed in his consci
ence for his faithlessness on the night
of the trial, said unto the others, "Let
us go fishing." This was but nat
ural, for that was their former busi
ness and with the time hanging heav
ily on their hands they sought some
diversion. They went, and in their
favorite fishing grounds fished all
night and did not catch anything.
As the dawn began to break and they
were tired and discouraged because
of their fruitless night's work, they
perceived a figure on the shore some
distance away and a voice clear and
sweet in its commanding and en
couraging accents, saying, "Cast your
net on the right side of the ship and
you shall find." Obeying the com
mand, they were surprised to find the
net literally filled with fish.
When they came to the shore, they
found it was the Master, for they had
believed it was he from the time they
first saw him there and heard his
voice. Now comes a question: What
was to be done with these men who
had made such great protestations of
faith and had declared that Christ
was indeed the Son of God, and had
everv one of them belied him? We
repeat, what was to be done with
them,? Christ himself had lived with
them for over three years and had
instructed them in the way of life,
and they had proven faithless not a
single one but what had denied him.
Could they be used for the great work
of saving the world? Had they been
asked this question, it would seem
that all would have said, "We are
not worthy."
But Christ knew better. He was
dealing with men and knew what was
in men, and he was the one who was
to judge of the fitness of men for
positions of responsibility. He knew
men were men and that the work of
regenerating the world was to be
done by their fellow man. Christ
had died to make a way for the sal
vation of the world and it was for
man to carry the message to the en
tire world. By the death of Christ
was the way made possible, but thru
the instrumentality of man must the
work be done. Know we from this
that we have a portion to do in the
salvation of the world and when we
in that faith which removes moun
tains, carry the message, we are do
ing our part in the salvation of the
world.
In all the things which the Christ
did he surely taught us that he was
indeed the very Christ, the Son of
God, and that believing on him we
can have life through his name.
Search the scriptures for in them you
think ye have eternal life, and they
are those that testify of men. So
s-aid the Christ.
We all have our place in this work
and let us do it gladly for no one
else can do it but U3.

ray. WOULD CONTROL STORAGE
Chicago, May 3. A board of trade
warehouse corporation to control the
storage of grain in Chincago was rec
ommended today by the special com
mittee of the board appointed to ex
amine warehouse conditions here. The
purpose of the corporation would be
to remove the evils of private interest
between elevators and operators such
as grain men claim were exposed in
the Armour Grain company case.
The ware house corporation, it is
understood, would rent storage space
from the elevator operators for con
tract grain to be delivered on future
rales. The Armour Grain company
has filed a bill of exceptions from seventy-five
to one hundred points made,
against the award of 13,000,000 made
against them in favor of the Rosen
baum Grain corporation by Attorney
Edward E. Brown, arbitrator, it was
revealed today.
The recent veto or the farm relit f
biil may increase the president's pop
ularity among city people. We have
a nervous feeling, however, that it
will not put him first in tha hearts of
the countrymen.
