Briggs Golden Text: '"For there is no dis tinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord is Lord of all. and is rich to all that call upon him." 1 Romans 10 12. A Call to Service Peter had been traveling over the land of Judea and had gone to Lydda, where he went to the home of Eanos, who had been an invalid for about eight years, having received a stroke of palsey, which kept him confined to his bed during all that time. He was beginning to feel that he would always be a cripple and was much discouraged. Rome of his friends had heard what Peter had done through the power of Christ in healing peo ples' bodies as well as their souls, and called the attention of Enos to the things that Peter had done. So Peter was called to the home, where ho immediately said, "Enos, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole; arise and make thy bed." Immediately Enos arose and was made whole. This was noised about and the news soon spread to the next town Joppa. where there was a woman named Tabitha. hut which by interpretation was called Dorcas. i Dorcas was a good woman and did I many rood acts for the people whom "she knew, supplying them with clothing end nursing their sick, as j well cs ministering to their wants i in manv other ways. Dorcas was i j taken sick and while everything pos-:sibl'- was done for her, she continued to grow worse and died. The people 'and especially the poor whom she j had so nobly befriended, mourned the 'death of this good woman. The body , had been lain in an upper chamber jard there was great mourning in the 'house, for every one hod been a re icirient of the good works which she 'did and the alms which she had given .so freely to the needy. I The people, hearing of the fame jef Peter as a preacher of the Christ sent two men for him. insisting thai : he must come at once, which be did 'and when he had come and been told of the death of Donas, and of the pood things which she had done for the people who were" mourning for her. Peter put the people out of the houe and kneeling prayed unto the Father, following which he turned and said unto Dorcas. "Arise." She thereupon rose and he extended her his hand, and she stood up. He then called the people who bad mourned and presented Dorcas alive. It was known tnroughout. that portion cf the country that he had raised Dor cas from the dead by the grace of Jesus Christ and many people were obedient to the faith.. Then did Peter sro to live with one This latter act on a Simon a tanner. is part was con- siuered a breach of etiquette, for the Jews considered the profession of a tanner as unclean and especially cer enor.ially, ami mans criticized Peter as a Jew, saying he had violated the practice which the Jew was told not to do. Still Peter followed the prac tices which were required by the Jews and went every day three times to pray on the housetops, ct the third, sixth and ninth hours, which were nine in the morning, high noon and three o'clock in the afternoon, the latter being called the evening prayer. While at prayer, it being noon, he was hungry, end would (have liked to have eaten, but the meal was not as yet prepared, and as he was praying he fell into a trance, and a sheet was let down from heav jn, filled with all kinds of animals. 1 all tf which the Jews considered as i be ing unclean and unfit fcr a Jew to eat. As the sheet appeared before Pel- decided to build er a voice came from the heavens which will be n'say'n. "Peter, slay and eat," for he and its progress : v-'s hungry. But Peter replied. "Not Kennedy were Lord. lor I have never eaten any of this week 1 thing that is common and unclean." - Then came the voice saying, "Call not God thou common or unclean what has cleansed." This was done j three times. When 'Peter awoke from I his trance, he wondered what all this could mean and he pondered on the import of the matter. While he was thus considering what all this vision might mean, a call was made telling him that men were at the gate and would see him. At Ceserea was also a centurian of the Roman Empire, who was a worshipper of the true God, and as he was praying, a vision also came to him in which the Angel of God appeared unto him saying, "Thy prayers have been heard and thy memorial for thee. Now send to Joppa and call one Simon whose hur n3nie is Peter and he will tell you what thou oughtest to do. This man may be found with one who is a tanner and Simon by name." Cornelius, the centurian, sent an escort, who appeared at the gate as Peter had come from the trance in which he had seen the sheet let down from heaven. Peter went down and said. "Behold. I am the one whom j you seek." The delegation said unto Peter, "We are a delegation from Ceserea from Cornelius, who hath just had a vision in which he was told to call for you and that you would tell him what to do." Peter, taking with him a number ' of devout Jews, departed with the messengers to go to Ceserea, and on the morrow arrived at the house of Cornelius. Cornelius had waited for the return of the messengers and had his kinfolks and neighbors present that they too might hear the words which Peter should speak. I As Peter came, Cornelius fell on his face at Peter's feet and worship ped the apostle. Peter took him by (the hand and said, ' Stand up, for I I also am a man. Do not worship me. for I only represent the true God and Jesus Christ, whom he had sent from J. j heaven I peace. ' i . with a message of love and When they had entered the Teter perceived that there were many there, and then he ad dressed Cornelius saying: "You know by the law of the Jews, it is not al lowed that one who is a Jew should come unto one who is not a Jew or come into the house on one of an other nation, but God showed me yesterday as I was praying at about the ninth hour, that I should not call any one common or unclean." Then did Cornelius tell Peter of the vision which he had had, and how he was told to send for Teter at Joppa and call Simon Peter and he shall tell you what you are to do. Then Peter opened his mouth and said, "I perceive that God is no re spector of persons, but in every na tion he that worketh righteousness is accented with him. The word which God sent unto the children of Israel. preaching peace through Jesus Christ. He is Lord of all that word I say you know which was pub lished throughout all Judea begin ning from Gallilee after the baptism which John preached. How God an nointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power; who went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed of the devil, for God was with him. And we are witnesses of all the things which he did in the land of the Jews and Jeru salem whom they slew and hanged on a tree. How God raised up the third day and showed him openly not to all the people, but to witness es chosen before God, even to us who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead. He commanded us to preach and to testify that he was ordained of God to be the judge of the quick and the dead." While Peter was still speaking, the ITcly Ghost came .upon all which heard the word. The Jews who were of the circumcision, were astonished when they heard, when they per ceived that the gentiles also receiv ed the outpouring of the spirit. They heard him speak with tongues and magnify God. Then did Peter an swer can any forbid water that thes should rot be baptised who have re ceived the Holy Ghost as well as we. Peter therefore commanded that they be baptised and in the name of the Lord Jesus. They constrained Peter and his associates to remain for cer tain days, which they did. The mat ter was noised about and came to the attention of the church at Jerusalem. This created a great hubbub, and when Peter saw the church, he told of how God hfld instructed him to do as he had done, and the church glorified God. who had blessed the Gentiles as well as the Jew. INSTALL HITCHING POSTS From Tuesday'; Daily e Missouri Pacific should install hitching posts at the passenger sta tic:! in the west part of the city, in order that owners or autos parked there may properly hitch the car? and trucks. This is led to by the fact ji,'t on Sunday the mail truck of IIo?:ry Sanders took u trip of its own ar.d indulged in a wild dash for lib erty over that part of the city. The car had been hit for a few moments by Mr. Sanders while he was in th? station looking r.ftor the nriil sac! - and the car getting a start, started oi: down the incline from the static.!: :aid ran r-cross the ro?d onto th" grounds of the Nebraska Masonic JIovp, gainir.'T more rpoed and the attempts of Superintendent W.

Memorial Sun day Services are Very Impressive Large Number Attend the Services Held at the Tirst Presbyterian Church Sunday Horning From Tuesday's Daily The memorial services Tield Sunday morning at the First Presbyterian church, which were in the nature of a union service, participated in by the congregations of the Presbyter ian, Methodist and Christian churches, were quite largely attend ed by the residents of the city irre spective of religious faith. The patriotic societies of the city were in attendance at the service, there being large numbers of the W. R. C. and the Legion Auxiliary as well as the few surviving veterans of the Civil war whose condition would permit them to attend as well as representatives of the American Lcgfon. The services opened with the organ prelude by Mrs. H. F. Goos, followed by the invocation and the opening hymn in which the congregation joined. The invocation and scripture lesson 'were given by IK-v. H. E. Sor tor. pastor of the First Methodist church. The address of Rev. H. G. M Cluky was especially devoted to the great struggle of the war of the re bellion in which the aged veterans present had fought and in whose honor Memorial day is particularly regarded by the people- of the nation as a day cf memory and tribute. The pastor traced the cause of the Civil war, the lack of strong leadership and idealism in the d?ys preceding the war and th fact that the ismie of human rlavery had been the great underlying cau-e of the was as being a thing in opposition to the American idea of government, a thing that was in opposition to the j very ideals en which our governme nt had been founded and which l.y the great tide of public sentiment was being swept away when the war precipitated by the- south. The vices of the men in blue were tolled by the speaker and their had made the preservation of was rer- e:: acts the nation as one unit possible. Rev. McClusky also touched on the other wars in which the country had taken part, the relief of tiie suf fering people in Cuba and later the great world war in which over four million American men had been en rolled. The war of the revolution, that of 1S13 and the Mexican war, with their important issues of rights of men and freedom of the individ ual were also touched upon by the speaker in hi3 tribute to the fallen sailors and soldiers of the nation. The speaker also deplored the trend to attack the national de fences, which had in the last few years been much in evidence in at tempts to throttle the army and navy, which were the first line of defense and without which the great and wealthy nation would be a tempting object to the less peaceful nations of the world. During the service the choir of the church gave a special anthem and Miss Ruth Lindsay, director cf the choir, a very beautiful solo, "O Love Divine." At the conclusion of the service, the audience joined in the singing of "America." and remained standing as the Grand Army veterans and the W. R. C. marched from the church.
