Neb. b b 8 Vocooeooesoososooosooooooccooooooooooosoooooooesoeoaitf "Solomon" I Kings 8:1-11 (Study Chapters 5 to S. inclusive. ; ' ' . . This is the most interesting char acter of all the early leaders of Is rael. . The . son of David and Bath sheba, he became David's successor bv request cf his mother, who'KK'iS very beautiful and ambitious woman? Solomon had a great inheritance, a united kingdom, untold riches, gath ered by his father the richest man of his da5 but was not spoiled by them, as seen by his deep humility ami piety, illustrated by the dream in which the Lcrd spoke to him and granted his request for "wisdom and an understanding heart." (I Kings 3:G-9). Solomon had inherited the deep piety cf his father also. The beginning of his reign was very promising, we wish to be able to chronicle such a fine end; but, alas, with all his wisdom, and Jehovah's favor upon him, his life ended most mircrably.. It seems almost incred ible that a man standing so high, as we seo him at the dedication of the temple, should fall so low a3 to build temples to idols, in later life. It is never safe to praise a man before his li'o is ended the average man. ThC'noblcrt work of Solomon is the building cf the first temple at Jerusalem. (History shows us three Sslcmon'ij temple, built in 991 B C. cr'LLab!l'3 temple,. built in 536 B. V. Horud's temple, enlarged and re built, ogun 20 B. C. finished 26 A. D.. destroyed by Titus. 70 A. D.. Soicmon's temple was one of the re-en worriers of the world. David Led gathered gold to the amount of $1,100,000,000. m The magnifi?ance cannot be described. The Holy of II Test was overlaid with gold repre renting $130,000,000 . in value. It3 dimensions. were 90 feet long, 30 feet witls, -15 feet high. To describe the work in building the temple would tnkr? tco nv.uh rpace. (See Chapters E, C, 7, I Kings.) Let us note the charge of David to Solcmcn: I go the way of all the earth; be thou slrcng, therefore, and show thyself a man." The temple was; finally completed alter seven yeans of labor with 153, 000 men, all hand labor. The cay of dedication has come. the feast of tabernacles is selected, the mcnth of Ethaulm our October. There are all the representatives of the nation gathered at Jerusalem - then the ark of the covenant is brought, from the tabernacle in a grand procession, while the 132nd Psalm was sung. It was one. of the great days in Israel; no other day equaled this in rejoicing before or after. Such are the emotions of every ccul that dedicates his life to 'the Bervice of Ood; when they become "a living sacrifice, holy; acceptable un to God" (Rem. 12:1). i. e. when a complete surrender is made, and the glory of Gcd fills the soul. Wonder PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA Neb., aa second-class mail matter Professor Tugwell is quoted as say ing that the "brain trust" is a pure invention and does not exist. Most other pure inventions exist. :o; We trust the jail guards who are assigned to watch Harvey Bailey are not so busy watching each other that they forget to keep an eye on Mr. Bailey. :o; Senator Borah has been unusually quiet since March 4, and many will wonder whether it is because he has been ill or whether he was ill be cause he had been quiet. : :o:T " After all, the main difference be tween a cigarette smoker and a cigar smoker is that the former runs out of cigarettes and the latter runs out of matches. 1 . . . ' ' ! : :o: If Moon Mullins, who . is at the Chicago fair ,is as smart as we think he is,. he will rent a hall and charge a fee to see Uncle Willie, who is prob ably the most Interesting exhibit on the ground. ' - ' :o: "Ceo it before you Buy it" Is a good slogan to observe. ful experience, that! That the work of Solomon was pleasing to God is proven by the fact. when the priests came out of the holy place, that "the cloud filled the house," the devine presence was there the ministry had to be delayed for Vthe glory , of Jehovah . filled the Bouse V5f 'TenoVaTir ' Tlie"br7g'nT sh'ech- niah of devine Presence at once' like the cloud and fire which was seen at Sinai (Ex. 14:15-13) and had follow ed the consecration cf the tabernacle (Ex. 40:3 4, 35) now similarly de scended on the temple, as a sign of its acceptance with God. In the visions of Ezekiel, the same glory is seen, filling the house of the Lord (Ezek 10:4). New follows one of the greatest prayers in the Bible. "Prayer is not request only, it is fellowship, com municn, identification with God; it Is the soul pouring itself out in all the tender compulsions of love, asking God for blessings, praying God for mercies, committing itself to God in view of all the mystery and peril of the future." (Joseph Parker). Doing must follow praying. Our religion is an empty sham if it does not empty the purse for the promotion of the Liora s worn. hoiomon never came nearer to God than in this dedicatory prayer (I Kings 8:23-61). Every true Christian must have such "high days" in his life, such mountain-top experi ences, like Saul on the Damascus road. But he must also go with Paul to the end of the road that he can say: "I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." (II Tim. 4:7). it is a raa ending we have to chronicle of Solomon's life. His for eign wives turned his heart from God; he did not win them over to his faith. We repeat the warning given before, "not to be yoked with unbelievers." (II Cor. 6:14). The risk is too great. Solomon learned it too late. A saying is: "When you run in double harness, take a good lock at the ether horse." The out come may be two unbelievers, instead of two Christians. The clouds of - devine displeasure are gathering around the closing years of.tbe great King and the storm was ready to break upon the head of his son. The historian hurries over his declining years. After a reign of forty years, he died In Jerusalem, leaving to hi3 son a realm ripe for a revolt, because of heavy taxation to support the king's selfish splendor. The kings of Israel so ' far each reigned forty years and died at the age of seventy years. Had Solomon followed his own teaching, he would not have lost his soul! "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep his cemmandments, for this is the whole duty cf man. For God shall bring every work" into judgment, with every stcrqt thing, whether, it be good, or whether it be evil." (Eccl. 12:13, 14) His own words! i EXPEDITING JUSTICE IN CHICAGO COURTS A measure of the extent to which Chicago has been aroused to fight crime is found in a petition filed in behalf of two alleged murderers about to be brought to trial. The petition, drawn by their counsel, sets forth that all the judges in the circuit, su perior criminal courts are prejudiced against murder defendants since a policeman was murdered before the eyes of a judge in his own courtroom, also that the entire community has become so inflamed that a fair trial in Chicago is impossible. Meanwhile, the grand jury ha3 calleed upon the Judges "who are away to cut short their vacations and return to the bench so that justice may be exped ited. There is more than the petition brought on behalf of the two accused gangsters to indicate that the Chicago underworld begins to be conscious of having too wantonly defied law and order. It was the repeated mor der of policemen which seemed final ly to stir public indignation to a white heat. What is described in the Chicago press as "the first death sen tence in the campaign against crime launched four weeks ago" was re cently pronounced upon the murderer of a policeman, the jury having re ported its verdict exactly six hours and 45 minutes after the selection or the jury was begun. It is, of course, possible that in an atmosphere of public excitement justime may be subordinated to ven geance. But in the 'case which' was briefly concluded the judge in pro nouncing sentence declared that never In a ' long experience had he listened to' evidence that was more complete or conclusive. Verdicts quickly : ;: reached and sentences prompt pronounced are a contrast to the dilatory proceedings for which our American , criminal courts have too often been celebrated. Spring field Republican. :o: , AE0UT GULLIBILITY AND GLASS HOUSES, Inconceivable as it may seem, the old myth about an estate left by Sir Francis Drake and waiting in Eng land now to make everybody rich who will buy a share in recovering it, has been revived Jn Wisconsin aid other states of the middle west. Whjvthat one. .wag sd to. draw suiffiT out of""gullible" people 4uyears ago." Since" that time both the Am erican and British governments have tried to make clear that no such es tate exists, that there is no money to pay dividends to tho3e who con tribute to its "recovery" in short, that anybody who listens to such talk is making a bid to be swindled. But the story has taken on a new dress. Once it was merely clothed in the romance of piiacy, or near-pir acy. Now it is hooked right up with the depression. All this trouble we have gone through has been caused by the tying-up of the world's gold in this - fabulous estate. Free this hoard and there will be plenty ot money once more. Those who con tribute to release this treasurer will not only benefit themselves but will be serving a public end. And the story goes over. The child ish trust placed in it shakes one's faith in the ability of people evertof the controversy over President to reason cut for themselves the un derlying falsity of such a claim. But we would not level at anyone the shaft of sarcasm. No, indeed, there are too many .parallel things to re member. In the winter of 1924 it seemed that everybody who had loose money' there was plenty of it in those days was buying Florida land on I the supposition that great cities could be erected down there out of noth ing, and that the purchasers would all be made rich from the increase Were they any lcs3 gullible than those who finance a "Sir Francis Drake estate?" Or take 1928. The loose change, and much that was not loose, was go ing into stocks and bonds that had been manipulated and re-manipulat ed to many times the property value unaeriying them, or the earning power that they could command. If a stock could earn only a fair sum for an Investor on a basis of two hun dred dollars, nobody was justified in paying tlx hundred dollars for it The extra four hundred dollars was just "Sir Francis Drake estate." Yet the wisest of the supposedly finan cially wise laid down their money and bought Just that way. And our wiseacres went around prating about "the new era." Yes, there is too much gullibility. But it is not centered in any one clas3 A m a. i . me population, it runs all the way through. We don't know of any one who has any business throwing stones. Milwaukee Journal. :o: Farmers may have hard sledding. but we have never known one to be come a book agent. THE BUYING DRIVE General Johnson, the "big shot" of national recovery efforts, said in an address before a Chicago audience, that "a federally directed national campaign would start about Sept. 20 to influence citizans to buy freely." ! Sept. 20 Is too late. Two weeks makes an enormous lot of difference at a crucial time like this. If the general i3 going to save the nation, economically, he should have started his campaign long ago, if a campaign is the solution to the problem. A number of Industries and busi ness enterprises have been under a code of one sort or anotrer for six weeks. For a month and a half they have been paying increased wages, have been paying a larger staff of em ployes. For six weeks they have been bearing a much heavier burden of overhead expenses, after months up on months of depression during which they lost money -steadily. Naturally the limit cannot be far away. This fact has been recognized by the administration. The administra tion has been attempting to make funds available to aid business house3 which are unable to carry on with the increased burden imposed by the recovery administration. The govern ment is going to lielp some of these businesses until buying increases and the flow of business is large enough to make the business self supporting. The need, of course, is vastly in creased buying. .This was the need before the recovery program was launched. It is more urgent now. In creased buying should follow the in creased payrolls in the businesses that came under codes early. But the reaction has not been sufficiently pro nounced to be f elf If a buying cam paign will help, it should be launched at once. Another:-two weeks or more means another two weeks of losses and the nearer approach of other complications, 'i&l - Buying drives arc unsatisfactory hi Uiat they are always followed by a relapse... If, howtver, a buying .drive will start the wheels turning, we can stand the, relapse. In any event de- Jay, will not holp now; The first serious mistake was the delay in get ting all industries under codes. Other delays cannot be tolerated. State Journal. : y -j. . . i-o: '' ' ' - ; SO GREY GOT BACK AT WILSON The-, death of Viscount Grey of Failod6'n,:-at Ipionie In" AT north of England, recalls the brief, and strangely unsatisfactory, episode of his visit to the United States as Brit ish . ambassador, shortly after the World War.' Lord Grey came to this country, rather -unwillingly, in the latter part of 1919, to represent his government temporarily until a suc cessor could be found for Lord Read ing, who had resigned to become lord chief justice of -"England. The post at-Washington did not involve any particular honor-for the new ambas sador. For many years he had been foreign secretary (secretary of state) of Great . Britain, in charge of the whole diplomatic service, and had re tired to a well-earned rest in 1916, with his eyesight badly impaired. Diplomatic conditions between the United States and Great Britain, however, were in a somewhat deli cate condition just then, as a result Wilson's attempt to force this coun try into the League of Nations, and it was felt that" Lord Grey's expr lence and tact were needed. Now, al though the President must have sig nified that Lord Grey's presence as ambassador was acceptable to him, the former foreign minister wsa never permitted to present his credentials, The excuse given' was that the Presi- dent was too ill to see him, but after waiting several months to be receiv ed. Lord Grey returned home clearly under the impression that he had been insulted. Whatsver was the reason for Vis count Grey's treatment, he was soon to get his revenge. Shortly after his return to England, the retiring am bassador write a letter to the London Times, in which he explained for the benefit of the British public why the United States was insisting upon cer tain regervntinno before it would agree to permit this country to join the League. He argued that the sen ate's position was reasonable and that Great Britain, for one, should accpt the conditions involved. Prcsi dent Wilson, to 'whom the reserva tions were heresy, was reported to have been furious over Lord Grey s letter and to have considered com plaining to the British governmant. But the letter had a good effect in England and Lord Grey had the sat isfaction Of l- iner that he had made some contribution to Anglo-American relations, in spite of the Pres ident.
