Bible School Lesson Study!
Sunday, January 24th
By L. Neitzel
Jesus and the Samaritan Woman
John 4:9-26.
The ministry of Jesus in Samaria
is re'f'df;! because it is John's design
to c: u.i... Christ as the Savior, not
cniy of Israel, but or the world. (John
4:42 "We know that this is indeed
the Christ, the Savior of the world).
Who -ere the Samarians? They
-w-ere mainly an alien race, descended
ircm the colonists planted in the
land by the Assyrians (Please read
2 Kins 17:6-2 4-26-29; Ezra 1:1-9-They
boasted, however, of be
ing Israelites and with some de
cree of justification, for then? was
probably a considerable Jewish ele
ment in the population. Their wor-s-hip.
originally a compromise with
heathenism, was now purely Jewish.
They kept the Sabbath and the Jewish
feasis. observed circumcision. Of the
c-M testament they accepted only the
Pentotcuf h. which was interpreted as
'cmn.cn!iris the erection cf a Icmple
on Mt. Geriziiu. This temple was de
stroyed about 12. C. 12f by John Ilyr
aim;. So that ir. Christ's time they
had no temple. However, they wor
shiped r.n the cl'l temple Fite. A small
remnant of the Samaritans still
exists.
Our Lord left Judea. the chief cen
ter of Pharisaism, to avoid a rupture
with them. Their jealousy of Jesus
was shown in many ways. Christ
therefore saw that the Gospel would
prrow much faster in Galilee and set
out for that country by the shortest
T.ute. Most Jews avoided Samaria in
rroinsj north, crossing the Jordun and
rinp through Peraea( but Jesus hav
ing heard that Hercd Antipas had cast
John the Baptist into prison Math.
1:12 ' Now when Jesus hear! that
Jhn ras cast into prison, he tiepart
ei into Galilee.") He would avoid
t'eraea, the seat of Herod's power,
end so te passed through Samaria.
Now. we step on holy ground, Sy
char. Jacob's Well, the Savior's rest
ing place. What sacred memories pass
through the mind. In Gen. 33:19 we
read: "And he (Jacob) bought a par
cl of a field, where he had spread his
ter.t. at the hand of the children of
Hamor. Shechem's father, for an hun
dred pieces of money." This is that
place!
The mysterious way6 of God's lead
ing are here revealed. The unusual
:?ire for a woman to come for water,
tb noon hour. Some say that she
came from the field and passing by
the well, would take some water
heme.
Jesu in His humanity is wearv
nd thirsty. The creator of the uci
erse asks a favor of a creature- "Give
? to drink." These words are an ex
pression of the thirst of God. God
thirsts for our recovery from our
slate of sin and misery. This is one
of the several seven words that Jesus
spoke seven beatitudes, seven peti
tions in the Lord's prayer; seven
words on the cross.
Note the opportunity for personal
evangelism that presents itself, and
how Jesus improved the time. We
should learn from our Master. Jesus
wen her confidence and she becomes
the first missionary to her race. It
was slow work, but very profitable
for the Kingdom. This woman had
not led a virtuous life; she was an
outcast, but she had an immortal soul,
and that was Jesus' work, to "save
that was lost." She needed the "Gift
of God." Jesus is that gift. "For
Gcd so loved the world that he gave
" "Living water," that is what
Jesus gives; not stagnant, but run
ning, flowing, moving.
The joys of this world do not sat
isfy the thirst of the soul. They create
a desire for more. "Everyone that
drinketh of this water shall thirst
again: but the water that I shall
give him shall become in him a well
springing; up into eternal life." What
a glorious fountain within the soul,
refreshing the wanderer on his jour
ney to his eternal home.
We see Jesus bringing to her mem
ory her past life. "Go call thy hus
band." She makes a truthful con
fession, recognizes in Jesus a proph
et. She is making rapid progress.
Now let Him give her an answer to
that old question: "Where is the
right place to worship God?" A uni
versal God is not confined to one
place. Thank God for this statement:
"Neither in this mountain nor in
Jerusalem." Gcd is spirit, .not "a"
spirit. It was just to a poor water
bearer that this truth was spoken. .
To worship God in spirit, we must
worship him as a spirit and without
intervention of any sensible form.
The Samaritans believed in a coming
Messiah their hope was based on
Deut. 18:15-20: "The Lord thy God
will raise up unto thee a Prophet,
from the midst of thee, of thy breth
ren, like unto me etc."
Behold the wonderful climax. The
converted woman calls the men of
the city; they believe her. The dis
ciples had come with food, urging
Jesus to eat. "My meet is to do the
will of him that sent me." Here come
the men of the city. "Lift op your
eyes and !ook on. the fields, for they
are whfte already to harvest."
1 And, so, a two days stay brings
many converts". "What a wonderful
Savior is Jesus my Lord."
WOlard Allen Still la Hospital.
Williard Allen, who had the mis
fortune to have his leg fractured and
who is in the hospital in Omaha, is
getting along fair but it seems very
long to him as he was used to being
out and so he could get about and to
be cocped up does not set very well
with him. On last Sunday, Mr. and
Mrs. A. A- Young came along and
were prepared to take Mr. and Mrs.
Allen but as Mrs. Allen had gotten
the baking ready she could not go.
However, Mr. Allen went and with
Mr. and Mrs. Young visited the
patient.
Mrs. Vest Very Poorly.
Mrs. Henry Vest still remains
very poorly at the University hospi
tal at Omaha. On Sunday Mr. Vest,
the husband, and two daughters were
over to Omaha and at the hospital
to see the wife and mother and found
her condition very grave. Every
thing possible is being done for her
recovery.
Breaks Hip Saturday.
M. S. Davis of Hutchison. Kansas,
while walking alr.r.g the streets of
that place, had the misfortune tc
slip and fall, sustaining a fracture
of his hip. Mr. Davis is near seven
ty years of age and rather stout, mak
ing the fracture the more severe. A
telegraph message was ent to his
son here, J. A. Davis, telling of the
accjdent and saying a letter was fol
lowing. Mr. Davis received the let
ter on Monday, telling of the acci
dent. The father was taken to the
hospital where he has been plated in
a cast and which will require some
time for the injury to become well
again.

having lived but a few hours, passed

A LITTLE VENICE
The melting snows on the down
town streets has made a miniature
Venice of the business section of the
city, the water coursing down the
streets to the depth of several inches
and making the foot travel very un-
I-Ieasant. The heavy snowfall has
accumulated a great deal of the
"beautiful" and which is now
bringing in its wake a great deal of
water. The snow along the curb has
melted sufficiently that it is possible
to get the water courses open and
the surface water can escape into the
sewers. The surfac? ".vster has been
the worst on Sixth street where there
is not the fall to carry off the water
as on Main street.

ENJOY FINE MEETING
The Golden Rod Study Club of
Mynyrd held its January meeting
with Mrs. Margaret Todd at Mur
ray on the afternoon of the four
teenth, because the weather was
stormy and the roads rather uncer
tain, only about half of the members
were present, but they reported a
very pleasant and interesting after
noon. After Mrs. Howard Wiles, the
president, had closed the business
meeting, she called upon Mrs. Elbert
Wiles to act as parliamentarian in
the absence of Mrs. Adda Perry. Mrs.
Wiles gave them a very thorough
drill in the lesson which had been
assigned. Mrs. Roy Cole played the
listening number which was Schu
bert's "Moment Musicale." Also the
ladies sang "Old Folks at Home."
The subject for this month's study
was "County Government in Nebras
ka." Mrs. C. C. Barnard had plan
ned the program, but as she was un
able to be present, it was very ably
presented by Mrs. Arthur Weten
kamp. Most of the bulletin prepared
by the extension worker, Elisabeth
S. Senning, was read and talks ex
plaining the duties of the county
commissioners and the clerk of the
district court were civen by Mrs.
Chas. Spangler and Mrs. Ralph Wiles
respectively. These talks were very
interesting and instructive. Mrs.
Barnard had invited Miss Alpha
Peterson, county superintendent of
schools and Miss Lillian White, reg
ister of deeds, to explain the pur
poses of their offices but an unusual
amount cf work caused the absence
of both ladies. Also, Mrs. Neilsen,
wife of the manager of the county
farm, and daughter of W. T. Adams,
deputy county clerk, was to talk on
these two places of our county gov
ernment but the weather and roatls
prevented her from being present.
The club members regretted the ab
sence of these ladies very much as
they were sure each one would have
had some very interesting items to
add to the program.
At the beginning of the club year
in September it was decided to do
something toward improving the
schools In the Immediate vicinity of
Mynard. The schools are known as
the "Little Brick" and the "Jean"
school. Last fall the ladies planted
flowers and Fhrubbery of various
kinds on -the grounds at each place
and at this meeting it was decided
to give the "Jean" school a new flag
as their old one was badly dilapidat
ed. The hostess. Mrs. Todd, and her
assistant. Mrs. Elbert Wiles, served a
delicious lunch at the close of the
afternoon's study.
