Bible School Lesson Study!
Sunday, January 6th

"Peter's Conversion and Call''
John 1:33-42; Mark 1:14-18.
As a prelude to the lessons for the
first quarter, a short sketch of Simon
Peter may be cf value to the Bible
student. His name was "Simon"
(Matt. 10:2). His home was Beth
taida. (John 1:44). His father's
name was '-John" or "Jonas." (John
21:15, 1). His brother's name was
"Andrew;" both were fishers. (Matt.
4: IS). Andrew brought Simon to
Jeus (John 1:42). Jesus changed
his name to "Cephas,"- a stone (John
1:42). "Pc-tros," Peter a Stone, v,-as??.
.married. (Matt. S:14). Glimpses of
lus life: Was present at the horns of
Jalrus (Luke S:43); walked on the
sea (Matt. 14:1S); declares Jesus the
Christ, the Son cf God (Matt. 16:1G) ;
was with Christ on the Mount of
Transfiguration (Matt. 17:1); saw
Moses and Elias (Luke 9:33); paid
tax for Christ and himself (Matt.
17:24); he and John prepared the
pa.scver (Luke 22: S); refused Jesus
to wa.sh his leet (John 12:6); saw
Christ's agony in the Garden (Matt.
20:37); cut off the ear cf Malchus
(John 1S:10); denied his Lord thrice
(Matt. 2 G : J9 ) ; sheds tears of repent
ance ar.d sorrow (Luke 22:62); saw
J ecus alter resurrection (Luke 24:
31); restored by Jesus to apostleship
(John 21:15); saw Jesus ascend to
Leaven (Acts 1:9); with the keys cf
the kingdom of heaven he opened the
tatrj aiid 3,000 entered (Acts 2:41);
pencd the kingdom for the Gentiles
(Acts 10:1); put in prison by Herod
and released by an angel (Acts 12:3) ;
had a controversy with Paul (Gal. 2:
11); wrote two letters to the faithful
Jews scattered throughout the Roman
Empire.
Andrew and John were attracted
u. i.if weuciung ti tne iiaplist in
Fruzry, A. D. 27, and became dis
ciples cf hi.-:. fearing the testimony
of John the U-ptiit regarding Christ,
whom he had baptised and witnessed
the Holy Spirit descending and abid
ing en Jesus, convinced these two men
that Jesus must be the promised Mes
siah; and when the Baptist one day
saw Jesus walking, he called out:
"Behold the Laub cf God!'' Every
r..an h:.s his own walk and the Son
of man Lad his. "Jesus walked as no
one eke has ever walked before or
since, for he walked as one who bore
on his head the sin of the world."
(Alexander Whyte). Pointing his dis
ciples to Jesus is a picture of a true
teacher of the Word, and every min
ister worthy of the name will be
found pointing men and women to
the Lamb.
The Baptist introduces his disciples
to Jesus. The rcsuit? They followed
Jesus. There and then they made
their choice once for all. Jesus noticed
the followers and turned and saw
them. Instinctively he knew that
these men were interested in some
thing, and helping them over their
shyness or embarrassment, asked
them: "What seek ye?" And they
recognizing in him an extraordinary
person, said: "Rabbi, (a title cf hono
and distinction) where is year home?
Where abidest thou?"
which occurs 3,7 S 2 times in the Bible:
"Come, and ye shall see." It is no use
to speculate where Jesus resided at
this time. We would give a great
deal if we had a record of those
blessed hours they spent with Jesus.
No one can ever do effective service
icr Jesus until he knows what it is
to continually abide with Christ.
These two hours, from 4 to 6, after
noon, are called "The birth hour of
the church" by George Reith.
Andrew, in his enthusiasm and
love, experienced in lin,ding . Christ,
lshes forth, seeking and finding his
Paris. Search for the late Alex
andre Stavinsky's "hidden millions"
brought new arrests in the year old
scandal. Revelation that expenses
of Stavinsky's children were being
met by a former friend of the sui
cide swindler put police on the trail
of where the funds were coming
from. Charles Pellissier, banker and
real estate dealer, was arrested at
Casablanca, Morocco, while a second
man known as Popp was arrested in
Paris. Pellissier will be questioned
regarding the aartment he rents
from Mme. Stavinsky. Popp had a
mysterious agency in a villa rented
from Madame Davin, mother of Guy
Davin, who now is confined on Devil's
island for killing the American,
Richard Wall, in 1932. Madame Da
vin sued Popp for failure to pay his
rent.
GETS TVA POWER FRIDAY
Pulaski, Tenn. Pulaski on Friday
will become the first Tennessee city
to use the cheap electrical power of
fered by the Tennessee valley . au
thority. A switch will connect Pulaski's
city power plant with a high voltage
line from Athens, Ala., at 4 p. m.
on that day, and the event will be
treated as a ceremony by city au
thorities. The announcement was made by
Mayor Rockley, who said he has been
assured by A. O. Waldrop, consult
ing engineer of the TVA, that con
struction of the thirty-four mile
transmission line to Athens will be
completed by that time. The power
will come from Wilson dam by way
of the Alabama city.

brother Simon and joyfully exclaims:
"V.'c I and John Zebbedee have
found the Messiah!" "Eureka, I have
found." The new-born soul wants to
share of the joy of sins forgiven with
those that are nearest to them. An
drew finds his brother and brings him
to Jesus. Andrew could not sing, as
we do, the great rallying song by C.
Austin Miles:
"So, you bring the one next you
And I bring the one next to me!
In all kinds cf weather,
We'll all work together
And see what can be done
To win them one by one!"
Then Jesus gives Simon the promise,
"thou shalt be called Cephas," not yet,
but in the future; he must be tested
and tried, refined. Later on in Matt.
16:18, Jesus, commenting on Peter's
great confession said: "Thou art
Peter and upon this Rock . . . 'Thou
art the Christ' ... I will build my
church." Peter should be a founda
tion stone of the church. (See Eph.
2:20).
Fourteen months later, April, A. D.
2S, another scene is enacted. John,
the Baptist is in prison; Jesus changes
the place of his activities from Judea
Washington, Jan. 1 Unshaken by
President Roosevelt's stand against
the bonus, veterans' organizations
today aligned their forces for a finish
struggle in the new congress.
The powerful political influence
of the American Legion was pitted
against that of the White house to
day by its national commander,
Frank N. Belgrano, jr., who said the
legion would continue to press its
claim for payment.
Assertnig President Roosevelt's
letter opposing the bonus contained
strong argument for immediate pay
ment Belgrano said he felt certain
congress would approve the legion's
bonus program. Mr. Roosevelt's
feelings on the issue were made pub
lic yesterday.
Favorable Vote Sure.
Belgrano's statement followed
that of James E. Van Zandt, nation
al commander of the Veterans of
Foreign Wars, who said the issue
would be settled by congress.
Meanwhile, democratic congres
sional leaders conceded the cash
bonus bill would pass both branches.
In what form and whether over a
presidential veto, they said remained
in doubt.
Reiterating his wish for speedy
house action on the bonus, Repre
sentative Joseph W. Byrns of Ten
nessee, who will be speaker, today
said:
"Lyerybody knows the bill will
pass the house, because there is no
opposition -t,o . it. Whether it will
pass over a veto, I don't know."
Byrns said, however, that if the
bonus "passed," the administration
would insist that some additional
! taxes be imnosed to take care of
"the big outlay."
Senate "Only Hope."
A high ranking democratic sen
ator, who declined to be quoted, said
the only hope Mr. Roosevelt had to
defeat the bonus "is that the senate
will sustain a veto." He added he
believed the house would override
the president's disapproval.
Referring: Jto the president's view
tne bonus issue is misunderstood.
Commander Belgrano said:
"In it, I believe he has presented

NINE INJURED IN A WRECK
Monticello, Miss. Nine persons
were injured and scores of others
were shaken up when the south
bound thru passenger train of the
Gulf, Mobile & Northern, carrying
approximately 100 passengers, left
the rails near here. The train,
carrying what railroad officials said
was its largest load of passengers in
recent months, had Just crossed a
thirty foot trestle and was slowing
down to coast into Monticello when
the wreck happened.
First aid was administred to the
Elmwood News
station. The more seriously hurt
persons were taken to hospitals.
CANADA OPENS ARGUMENTS
Washington. Canada set about
proving it is entitled to damages of
$386,000 for the sinking of the rum
runner, I'm Alone, by an American
coast guard cutter. The United
States completed presentation of its
argument that the boat was owned
by a New York rum ring, before the
American-Canadian Judicial commis
sion.
Late in the day John Read, Ca
nadian agent, undertook to show the
vessel was the property cf the Eu
gene Creaser Shipping company, ltd
a Canadian corporation.

have yet read when he pointed out
that most of the money the veter
ans received, when they borrowed
50 per cent of the face value of the
certificates in 1931, was used to dis
charge their debts and that it is only
reasonable to suppose that the same
results would be obtained today,
when the balance due is paid."
Says Recovery Help.
The legion chieftain argued veter
ans would use the bonus money to
pay grocery and rent bills and that
the money "would quickly find its
v.-ay into every channel of business
and trade, and would be distributed
equally and automatically through
out the country."
"The American Legion," he said
"will present its clear cut mandate
of the Miami convention, recom
mending immediate cash payment of
these certificates, with cancellation
of interest accrued and refund of
interest paid, to congress within the
next few days and I fcpl cprtnin
that recommendation will be accept
