John the characteristic elements of
the life of the church. John at Pat
mos, a small bare vulcanic island in
the Aegean sea, about 15 miles from
Ephesus, probably banished in pun
ishment for his Christian preaching
In his meditation and contemplation
on the Lord's day (this should be the
practice of all Christ's followers)
John was in a prophetic trance. Com
pare Acts 10:10; II Cor. 12:2. "Voice
as of a trumpet," the angels trum
pet voice is recorded again, 4-1. The
Angel directs John by his voice from
afar in the first part of Rev. Com
pare 10:4-S; 11-1; 14-13; after 17-1;
accompanies him. As an Angel of the
Presence compare chap. 8-2, 15. 5-C,
he is called Christ's angel and God's
Angel; chap. 1:1: 22:K. This angel
speaks in 1M:9. 21:5. I : he is referr
ed to in 21. 15; 22, 1: and speaks
again in 22, G-l. Other voices to
be ncted are the "Great Voice" of
the Almighty" 11-12. 16-17: 21-35:
the voice of Christ as the "voice of
many waters" verse 15. 14-2: 16-15.
1P-6; 22-7; 12-15; 16-20. The voice
of the living creatures "as a voice

shed the light of truth and goodness
derived from Christ, the light of the
vorld upon the world around them.
The flame is supported by the oil of
the Holy Spirit- Compare Ex. 23:31;
Zech. 4:2; Math. 5:14. After seeing
the majestic figure of the Son of God
in his glory, John was overwhelmed
by the sight and fell down at His
feet as dead, speaking words of en
couragement, that John had heard
so oft before, "Fear not." (which oc
curs 300 times in the scriptures).
He gives John the assurance that
He is the same yesterday, today and
forever. Heb. 13:8: and that He has
also authority over the unseen and
eternal regions. There is no key
holder but Jesus Christ. This closes
the description cf the Son of God.
All power is given unto Him from
the Father. To open and shut are
the prerogative of His office. No man
can forgive sin. because no man is
clean before God, to forgive the sins
against God, God only can pardon.
"The blood of Jesus Christ His Son.
cleanseth us from all sin," "If we
confess our sins (before God) He is
faithful an! ,1U6t to forgive us our
sins." I John 1:7-9.

A new organization has made its
appearance in Plattsmouth highj
school with the formation of a Short- i
hand Club. This organization is com- I
posed of students of the first and
second year shorthand classes, and i
has for its purpose the creation of ,
further interest in shorthand work ;
and stenography. Interest will be
stimulated by awarding merit certi- !
ficates to members who achieve cer- !
tain requirements and it is planned'
to have speakers representing the1
various professions appear on the j
programs. I
This organization gives the com- j
mercial students an opportunity toi
further their interest in this subject !
outside of the formality of the regu- .
lar class room, and doubtless will be j
an incentive to better work in the ;
commercial field.
The officers selected are: Helen)
Warga, president; Eleanor Swatek, ;
vice president; Henry Donat, secre-,
tary and treasurer; Mata Schackneis, j
reporter. Mr. L. L. Starrett, for the j
past two years a teacher of commer-
cial subjects, is tire sponsor of the !
club. There are forty-four students j
in the department and they plan to
meet once a month.
The president appointed a commit
tee of five to draw up a constitution
and by-laws for the club . This group
is composed of Eleanor Swatek, chair
man. Donald Bushnell. Helen Schulz,
Grace Pilney. Floyd Shanholtz. They
will also prepare a calendar.
The social committee for this
month is Irene Simons, chairman,
Helen Woolcott and Henry Donat.
