February 5th 'Jesus Chooses the Twelve" Mark 3:7-19. The popularity of Jesus had in creased to such proportion that peo ple came, not only from Palestine, but from Tyre and Sidon, to the north west, and from east of Jordan, Idum aea. the country settled by Esau. Such a movement to hear a fam ous preacher has never been known before nor since. Had John the Bap tist stirred up the masses by his pe culiar preaching; Jesus by his unique work of preaching, teaching and healing had aroused the people to such a state of mind that they want ed more they had gained an appe tite for religion. They brought their sick with them. The fame of Jesus had reached the highest point; the synagogue could not hold the multitude, hence he held open air service; and then the people pressed upon him to touch the hem of his garments, that he had to find a way that he might preach so that all could hear. So he selects Peter's boat for a pulpit. The shelv ing beach gave the people a chance to see and hear the preacher. If our modern day preachers had a message from God, they would not have to talk to empty pews. The work was very exacting there was no let up, and Jesus' great heart was wonderfully stirred as he saw the havoc sin had wrought. The unclean spirits also were greatly dis turbed, for he had come to destroy the works of the devil. How did they know him? Well, their wrath against Jesus was great, because it was on his account that they were cast out of heaven. He did not need their tes timony. He also told those whom he healed not to make it known, because it would endanger his life and hin der his work; it would stir his ene mies to action. The work had become too heavy for Jesus himself. Besides, he knew that lis time on earth was short, and it was necessary to train men who could carry on the work after his death. The choice of the twelve was one of the most important incidents of his whole ministry. In preparation for this event, Jesus spent the previous night in prayer. How much more should men call on God for wisdom and guidance in the great moments of life, for then we would blunder less and make fewer mistakes. The place where Jesus selected his apostles is given as the Horns of Hut tin, or the Mount of Beatitudes, west of the Sea of Galilee. There were, in the cases of the leading apostles, three stages of this call. First a call to faith in Christ, given where John was baptising; sec ond, a call to follow Christ, given by the Sea of Galilee, to Peter. Andrew, James and John, and third a dedica tion of the entire company of twelve to be Christ's intimate companions, his special pupils, his representatives before the world, and his continuers of his work after his death. There are four lists of the apostles: Matt. 10:2-4; Mark 3:16-19; Luke 6: 14-16; Acts 1:13. (Memorize the names). Twelve were appointed, one for each tribe of Israel a small num matters in connection with the busi ness he maintains in Murray. F. M. Hunt, living a few miles southeast of Weeping Water, was a business visitor in Murray on last Monday and was looking after some business matters at the lumber yard where he was purchasing some build ing material. Mary Ellen Horchar, four-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dan Hor char was taken with the flu on last Monday and rapidly grew worse and was quite ill during the early days of this week. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Lancaster were called and assisted in !her care. Harry G. Todd who has been in poor health for some time past, and iv.ho was very seriously ill that his (recovery was for a time dispaired of, J is at this time much improved and was able to be over to town on last Monday and was looking after some business matters for a shorT time. Col. Rex. Young, The auctioneer, was a business visitor in Murray for a short time last Monday while on jhis way to Syracuse where he was going to conduct a horse and mule sale for John Greer, the road con tractor, and who is disposing of the mules and will in the future employ power machinery for the road work. While A. D. Crunk was returning home and was traveling over high way 75 with a team and wagon and jalso leading another team behind the ! wagon, a motorist driving a car struck the wagon of Mr. Crunk, dam jaging it quite badly and also injuring Lesson Study! By L. Neitzel, Murdoch, Neb. ber with which to win the world, but then they had the Son of God for their leader. "That they might be with him!" That was their educa tion, being constantly with Christ, hearing his marvelous addresses, wit nessing his wonderful works, holding intimate conversation with him, and aiding him in ever more effective ways. From that time, the training of the twelve was perhaps Christ's most im portant work, a work in which he could not be thwarted by his bitter foes. They were taught how to preach, given authority over demons. They learned by their successes and fail ures, the same as men do today. A characterization of the twelve would be in place: 1 Simon Teter. He was a rough fisherman, Impetuous, wayward, non cowardly, heroic, but a man of staunch loyalty, always ready to take the lead. He wa3 so emphatically human, so full of good intentions, so often blundering, so laden with fa miliar regrets, so compassionable. 2 Andrew, the patron Saint of Scotland. He never preached a great sermon ; he never jumped into the sea, or cut anybody's ear off, like his fa mous brother. He was the man of de cision. His greatest work was in bringing Peter to Christ. He is the "Finder." 3 James. He is the first of the apostles to suffer martyrdom. A man of fiery temper. Very ambitious; he with Peter and his brother John be longed to the inner circle. 4 John. We have three sets of brothers. Can you name them? He is the dif ciple whom Jesus loved. Five books in the New Testament are from his pen. Can you name them? 5 Philip. We know little about him. He brought Nathaniel to Jesus and it was he who asked Jesus, "Show us the Father." 6 Bartholomew. He wondered if any good thing could come from Naza reth. He was a mystic, a man of contemplation. 7 Mathew. Noted for his humil ity and quick decision in following Jesus. 8 Thomas. We speak of him as "doubting," but "courageous" is bet ter. He was ready to go and die with Jesus. (John 11:7-16). 9 James, the son of Alphaens. Nothing is known of him, only he was one of the twelve. A faithful worker. 10 Simon (Zelotes) or Zealot, be longed to a patriotic party advocating insurrection against Rome. Nothing further is noted about him. Jesus had need of him and had work for him. 11 .Tu las, the brother of James (See number 9), also called Thad daeus; only reference in scripture is John 14:22. He is one of the least known of the apostles. Faithful in little. That is the triumph and final achievement of fidelity. 12 Judas Iscariot. Jesus could not save him. He had the chance, but turned thief, a traitor, a betray er. Such were the men whom Jesus chose to represent him and his cause to the world. ( the car to some extent. Fortunate it was that no one was greatly in jured. Dr. G. H. Gilmore and family who reside in Lincoln were over home for the week end Saturday and Sunday. They came to spend the week end with their friends here. On Sunday D. Ray Frans and family of Union were over and enjoyed the day at the Gilmore home, altho Dr. Gilmore has fo go to Nehawka for a portion of the day. Brightening Up Office. Art Weideman, the manager of the Farmers Elevator here has been busy with the paint and brush brighten ing up the interior of the office at the elevator and has painted it a very bright green and trimmed in a buff which has made a very pleasing com bination of colors, and also inscribed on one wall a large circle or globe which will be used for the demonstra tion and display of the seeds which the company will have for sale. Attending School at Peru. The Rev. Lloyd Schubert, pastor of the Christian church here was over on last Sunday and conducted serv ices at the Christian church and also announced that he had decided to enter the school at Peru and on Mon day began his studies at the institu tion. He will take some certain branches and devote his attention to those alone. Enjoyable Home Dinner. Mr. and Mrs. Dan Horchar and their little daughter, Mary Ellen, and the Rev. Lloyd Schubert, pastor of , the Christian church and James ! Horchar, were members of a dinner party which was had at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Lancaster. Banquet Saturday Night. The contest which was had be tween the chosen sides of the senior Christian Endeavor which was held some time since, and which was to be celebrated by the losers giving the winners a banquet, will be held at the Christian church Saturday night. Van Allen Breaks Wheel, While Van Allen who had been visiting at Nebraska City on last Sunday, was returning home about dark, he struck a slippers- place when the water had washed dirt over the highway, the car skidded as he was endeavoring to pass a truck whieh whirled his car around and impelled him against a water drain along the road and broke one of the wheels of his car. He was able to jget it as far as the intersection just (east of Union where he left it until he could go and get it. Fortunate it I was he was not injured when the ac jcident occurred. Attends Brother's Funeral. Henry Heebner, accompanied by J. A. Scotten as driver of the car, were over to Avoca on Tuesday afternoon where they went to attend the fun eral of the late George Heebner, who died at his home a few mile3 north cf Avoca on last Sunday night. Mr. Heebner had been in poor health for some time and while making a val iant fight for some week, passed away on last Sunday night and the fun eral was held from the Christian church at Avoca. of which Mr. Heeb ner was a devoted member. Received Material for Bridges. Raymond Evans of Ashland, who has the contract for the building of bridges in Cass county, received a shipment of steel on last Monday which he had unloaded here and which will be used "Tor the construc tion of a bridge near the home of George I. Lloyd. After looking after the unloading of the cars of material Mr. Evans departed for his home at Ashland. Making Changes at Elevator.

The circular urges the boys and girls to learn to lead games, put on stunts, do tricks, and solve puzzles for themselves and oth er people. The accident and fire prevention and the pest control phases of the project are minor requirements but they offer possibilities for boys and girls to correct situations around every farm and home. Choose Proper Vegetable Varieties. Requests coming to the Farm Bu reau office indicate that the lovely weather of the past few weeks is giving many people the garden fever. Now is a good time to make plans for your vegetable garden, as to loca tion, size and plan for planting. Special thought should be given to seed and varieties. When purchasing seed for a farm vegetable garden it payt to obtain seed of good quality and of a good variety. It pays to depend upon proved varieties, differ ences between varieties are very slight; in others it is important to select the variety with care. These and other pertinent suggestions are emphasized in Extension Circular 1211, "The Farm Vegetable Garden" published by the Nebraska College of Agriculture. A complete list of the varieties of vegetables adapted to general use in Nebraska are given in this circular. Ten different varieties of tomatoes are listed as suitable for this state, while the number of varieties of peas is limited to four. Quality and adaptability to Nebraska conditions have been considered as the factors of first importance in developing this list. This circular also deals with plans, problems, and management of the farm garden. Copies may be ob tained at the office of the county ex tension agents.
