"Jesus aad His Friesds"
Mark 13:33; 14:9.
I Jesus warns his friends, Mark
13:1-37. Tlie coming end of the
world. Christianity has no more prec--ious
possession than the memory of
Jesus during the week when he stood
face to face with death. Driven from
the temple by hi3 foes, never to enter
it again, our Lord devoted himself
during these last few days to his
little band of loving friends. Our les
son shows him faithfully warning
them cf the trials that were to come
upon them. In the background we
see the dark menace of his foes, plot
ting his death. It is a most moving
picture. Jesus foresaw the end of the
Jewish nation; the horrors that
would accompany the destruction of
Jerusalem. Eut he sees also his re
turn in glory and power to reeive
his own and take them to their ever
lasting abode. He also points out
the uselessness of figuring out the
time of the end of the world, because
no one knovs not even the son
as Son cf Man. Then why waste time
in speculations? "Take ye heed." A
heedless life cannot be a Christian
life. The Christian, is full of joy,
but it is a solemn joy; for he sees
dearly, the vast, eternal issues at
stake in his life. Thcughtfulness be
comes a Christian, for he knows that
his life here determines his life
throughout the endless years. Every
day brings the Lord's coming one
day nearer. There is no day which
may not be cur last. "Watch and
pray." "Lest coming suddenly, he
finds you sleeping." Think of Peter,
Jame3 and John sleeping on the
mount cf transfiguration and in Geth
serr.anc. Christians asleep! How many
cf them arc. Laymen and preachers,
Sunday school pupils as well as teach
ers. To all, without a single excep
tion, the Master is coming. "What
I say to you. I say to all. Watch!"
II Jesus plotted against, Mark 14:
1, 2. While Jesu3 was with his
friends in Bethany, a dark plot was
incubated in Jerusalem. The clan
cf the chief priests with the scribes
got together and passed sentence on
Jesus to kill him. (Gangsters of to
day put their victim cn the spct.)
Trickery and murder these filled
their cruel hearts in place of praise
to Gcd and love to men that befitted
the solemn and joyous festival. The
lime wa3 not propitious, the crowds
were too great, too many Galileans,
whom Jesus had benefited, they might
take his part; wait until after the
passover. The crowds so great that
tometimes as many as 23,000 lambs
were required for slaughter in the
temple, one lamb for each household.
The Romans were prepared to quell
ricts. keeping a heavy guard cn hand.
And so they waited.
Ill Jesus annointed by Mary. He
stayed at the home of Simon, the
Leper, Titom he had healed some
seme business matters, making the
trip on his motorcycle.
Martin Sporer and his little daugh
ter were over to Union on last Mon
day, where they were looking after
seme business matters as well as vis
iting with friends for a few hours.
J. A. Scotten, the contractor, and
George E. Nickles, the lumberman,
were called to Omaha on Tuesday to
look after seme matters of business,
driving up in the car of Mr. Nickles.
W. G. Boedeker of the Murray

In Plattsmouth last Saturday evening,
where they were called to look after
some business matters for a short
time.
Vac Mickluskey, the blacksmith,
was in Omaha over the week-end,

He returned to Murray Monday to
look after the business at the shop.

time before. The house was Chrirt's
headquarters during passover week.
Mark goes back a few days (as we
learn from other Gospels) to the
Saturday evening of Passion week, in
the home of the beloved family, and
there we learn the motive of Judas'
betrayal. A banquet or supper was
given to Jesus and the twelve. Prob
ably in memory cf the resurrection
of Lazarus, which took place eight
aeefcs before. This was one happy
day for our Lord, marred only by in
terruption of Judas. This annoint
ing must net be confused with the
incident recorded in Luke 7:36-50, al
though the name of Jesus host is
the same and the annointing was in
the same manner. This first woman
has no name (she is called a "sin
ner") while in our lesson of today, it
is Mary, the sister cf Martha and
Lazarus, as John 12:3 reveals who
did the annointing. We must remem
ber, that the active attempt of the
Jewish rulers to bring about the
death of Jesus started with the rais
ing of Lazarus (John 11:53). Mat
thew and Mark gave no names, ,but
John wrote very much later when he
could give us the names and there
was no danger that they would be
molested by the rulers. Mary and
the cintment. This alabaster cruse
of cintment is believed by some was
bought to embalm Lazarus, but for
seme reason was not used. It was
very costly estimates vary between
$100 and $1,200. It was the most
precious thing, probably, that Mary
possessed. She broke the cruse over
his head and feet, the house was
filled with the odor. The two prin
cipal actors in this scene are Judas
and Mary; the former represents the
worst that is in man and the latter
the best. The monument that Mary
built will stand to the end of time.
Judas is named only with contempt;
no one will name a bey "Judas, but
the "Marys" are very numerous. The
remarks of the indignant disciple
may have caused Mary to weep. Now
we hear the Lord, with a sharp re
buke saying: "Let her alone, why
trouble ye her; she hath wrought a
good work on me." Jesus always
came to the defense of women. "She
hath done what she could." Would
to God that could be said of all his
followers. Have we done all we can?
Could we not exert ourselves a little
more? Can Je3us say about us, "He
(or she) hath done what they could?"
With a prophetic vision the Lord sees
the gospel preached throughout the
whole world and Mary's act spoken
of as a memorial for her. She gave
her best to the Master and only that
is gocd enough for him. God alone
values our efforts correctly. He
knows the motive that prompts the
deed. God keeps a book of remem
brance. (Mat. 3:17). And some day
the books will be opened (Rev. 20:
12).

Mrs. C. V. Barrows received the
?ad news of the illness of her sister,
Miss Marguerite Brown, of near Hub
bell, Nebraska, and that she had to
undergo an operation for a severe
?ase cf appendicitis. The appendix
had burst and the case was one of
very grave concern. Mr. and Mrs.
Earrows hastened to Hubbell, where
they went to see the sister and were
pleased to find her feeling some bet

Entertained Last Sunday
Miss Bertha Nickles entertained
for the day and dinner on last Sun
day, having her two cousins, Miss
Etta and Mr. Lee Nickles, of Platts

and the fine dinner very much.
Keeps Bustling
Henry Heebner, who while he has
attained a number of years, still
keeps at the work notwithstanding
the added fact that he has not been
in the best of health. He has a num
ber of gardens in the vicinity of Mur
ray, which he is keeping up in fine
shape. When it comes to growing a
gcod garden, Henry Heebner knows
how. The two ingredients that count
most are hard work and keeping at
it. He has both.
Loses Three Friends
Thomas Nelson has had the ac
quaintance of a number of friends
for many years and occasionally he
has found fault with some of them.
Just lately he has had cause to com
plain of three of them and so, while
it cost him some pain to sever his
connection with them he did so, but
not without bloodshed. They were
three decayed teeth and he is now
feeling some better.
Eave Gecd Record
At the Christian Bible school on
last Sunday nine of the students of
that institution were presented with
a wreath for not missing Bible school
fcr over two years and three had a
record of over four years without a
skip, they being Richard Brendel,
Charles Sporer and Raymond Lan
caster. This makes a good record and
shows well for the interest taken in
Sunday school work.
Getting Ready to Euild
The committee having in charge
the rebuilding of the Murray school
building, which was burned to the
ground last winter, has taken steps
to have the ground cleared and the
basement which has been left since
the fire, cleaned out and everything
gotten in readiness to commence the
work of rebuilding as soon as the
preliminary arrangements can be
made. Everett Dodds, the architect,
who has been employed to draw the
plans and furnish the specifications
for the erection of the building, was
down and looked over the grounds
where the building was and where
the new structure is to be erected.
It has been decided to erect a ten
grade building, although there was
considerable talk cf increasing the
facilities of the school to make it a
fully accredited twelve grade high
school. The tenth grade i3 the high
est that has been provided in the
past and as the increased cost of
providing for two more would have
made necessary the voting of some
bonds in addition to the insurance
money on hand and proceeds of the
sinking fund, it was thought best to
only provide for the number of grades
heretofore accommodated.

cf real artistic beauty as the iris
garden that Mr. Tidd has been culti

bringing some new beauty in the
flowers.
Mr. Tidd has made a close study
of the iris and the result is that he
has one of the largest and best col

for Companion
Winnie Mae to Carry Him Again in
Attempt to Beat Record He Set
in 1931 with Gatty.
Oklahoma City. Wiley Post, co
holder of the round-the-world flight
record, announced today he would
take off about July 1 in a solo at-.
tempt to set a new globe-circling re
cord. The flight. Post said, would be
made in the Winnie Mae, in which
he and Harold Gatty flew around the
globe in eight days, fifteen hours and
fifty-one minutes in June, 1931. The
fuselage is being rebuilt and the
plane will carry a new motor.
"I am simply going out to set a
new record, my personal ambition,"
was Post's only comment. "I will
have no backer, no manager and no
partners."
Eobot His Companion.
The attempt to beat the record
will be financed by Post, interested
aviation equipment and plane build
ers, and Oklahoma City aviation fans,
the pilot said. Instead of a human
companion. Post will be accompanied
ay a robot, which he has been test
ing several weeks in all kinds of
weather, and over plains and moun
tains. Post expects the robot to relieve
him of much of the flying, leaving
him free to navigate and rest. On the
record flight. Post did the flying and
Gatty was navigator.
Final details of the flight and es
tablishment of fueling stations in Si
beria will be worked out by Sam
Griebi of Chickasha, a pilot and
friend of Post. The two expect to
leave in a borrowed airplane for
Washington and New York. Griebi
plans to sail from New York for Eu
rope. Berlin on First Hop.
Under plans announced, the route
of the new attempt would be much
the same as that followed by Post
and Gatty. Post would leave from
New York with the intention of mak
ing a direct nonstop 3,900-mile
flight to Berlin. He then would make
a 4,300-mile jump over Russia, which
probably would be broken at 2,600
miles by refueling.
From Russia he plans to fiy 2,200
miles over water and ice to Fair
banks, Alaska, then 1,450 miels into
Edmonton, Canada, and 2,100 miles
back to New York.
The rebulit plane will have a fuel
capacity of 658 gallons or 110 gallons
more than on the first flight. It will
have a cruising speed of about 170
miles an hour and top speed of 225
miles an hour.
