Brlgga Golden Text: "And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing all manner of disease and all manner of sickness." Matthew 9:35. Th,e writer Peter, gospel God." The Kingdom of God first declaration of Mark, the who was associated with says: "The beginning of the of Jesus Christ, the Son of Mark makes this quotation and then refers to the prophecy of Isaiah, where he wrote: "Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare the way. The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ready the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.' " And so there came John, who bap tised in the wilderness and preached the baptism of repentence unto the remission of sin. Mark told of the coming of John the Baptist, and of his being a fore runner of the Christ, the very son of God, which was to come, and this in troduces the question of the certainty of Christ being the ambassador to the world from the Father in heaven. He also tell3 how he preached and with such force and popularity that all came to him and he baptised them to the remission of their sins. As the people were wondering at the gracious words which fell from his lips, they were wondering were he the Christ which was to come, and in answer to this query in their minds, he said: "There cometh one after me . . lln.n J rwVtt ttwt thin I tha I f n Vi r. ronnv frienria nr tnis excellent Keu"i ' u"6n lauuct tleman are hoping that he may soon: of whose shoes I am not worthy to be in hiB usual health. stoop down tolinloose.

Jesus Heals the People It early became the practice of Jesus to go to the synagogue, where he taught the people and healed them and told them of the coming of the kingdom of God, and while in a Jewish synagogue there was a man with an unclean spirit, which said, "Have you come to destroy us before our time?" Jesus said unto the un clean spirit, "Hold your peace and come cut of him, and when the de mon, for such it was, had torn the man, he came out of him. This caus ed a lot of wonderment among the people who said: "What new teach ing is this? This man commandeth the unclean spirits and they obey him." Then when he had come out cf the synagogue, they came to the home of Simon Peter and found the wife sick with a fever and when Christ took her by the hand and raised her up. the fever left her and trip to Atchison, where he has the; she immstred unto them.

The huge birthday cake was baked by Mrs. Boedeker, and with its decorations and candles, was proof that she is a real artist. Mrs. Stew art was the recipient of some beau tiful and useful gifts, which attest the love and esteem wjth which she is held by her Murray friends, among whom the Stewart family have re sided but a few months, which fact made the surprise more complete, as Mrs. Stewart never suspicioued that any one in Murray had any idea as to when her birthday would occur.

Jesus the Christ, the netween eignteen ana nineteen nun- annointed one, was as John said in the beginning, the "Word" for He was indeed the very word of the Father, and what He said and thought was indeed the very word of God. His acts betokened the very healing power of the God of all the universe, and also an evrlasting heal ing. As the reports which came on ac count of the wonderful things which Jesus did. were spread about of th. things which He did, many people came unto him and he healed them, but still they lingered and when the evening was come he dismissed the people and went up into the moun tain to pray with the Father alone, and allowed the disciples to depart forthe other side of the sea, and after it was dark a storm came over the sea and the boat was filling with water, and they feared they would all drown, but just when the storm was at its worst, the Master came to them, walking on the waters, and they thought it was a spirit. They cried out in fear, but Jesus called to them, saying: "It is I, be not afraid." Then did he call Peter to come unto him, walking on the water, and af ter they were all in the boat, he ask ed them why they were so fearful, and they answered Him, "Thou art indeed the very Son of God." This is the first recorded declaration of this statement and it might even be that it was Peter who wrote it. However, the declaration of Peter followed closely, when he said the selfsame words, "Thou art indeed the Son of God."

INTENDED ACREAGE OF CROPS IN 1928 Nebraska farmers are not plan ning any marked changes in crop acreage except for barley and pota toes, according to the results of the spring planting survey released to day by the state and federal division of agricultural statistics. Some po tato growers in western Nebraska have already taken action to reduce the acreage of potatoes. Some winter wheat will be abandoned which will force some further adjustment of acreage. Planting intentions of Nebraska farmers are as follows: corn, 100 spring wheat, 96 and 99.2; oats 101; grain sorghum, 100.; po- atoes, 112 and tame hay 101. Planting intentions for the U. S. and North Central States are respec tively as follows: corn 102.8; and 101.7; spring wheat, 98.5 and 98.3; oats, 98.6 and 99.2 bar ley, 123.9 and 128.2; flaxseed, 114.3; grain sorghum, 102.3; potatoes, 111.9 and 113.5; sweet potatoes, 105:5 hay, 98.6 and 97.6 7o. In view of the generally large in tended acreage of potatoes for tliu country, it is likely that this acre age will be reduced somewhat, sine! past history shows marked priced re duction following large production. Western Nebraska growers have al ready taken steps toward reduced acreage. Barley gives good results as a feed crop, particularly in western and south central Nebraska where corn is somewhat uncertain. Barley can be harvested by combines whicli may further increase the acreage. From present reports, it appears that the winter wheat abandonment may range from 5 to 10. Ths acreage for the country as a whol is 10 larger. Flax would be a good substitute for spring wheat in north western Nebraska since U. S. pro duction is well below dornestci re Give an opportunist enough rop and he'll have it on the market inside tof three days in a Cuniatra wrapper. few Machinery!
