PLAYS IN REHEARSAL
Rehearsals arc being held almost
nightly at the high school, of the two
plays to be presented by the Win
tersteen Hill P. T. A. on Tuesday,
November 26th.
Two strong casts have been se
lcted from among Platismouth's ar
ray of lo.al stage talent to feature
this new idea in local stage presen
tations, that of a double feature or
twin bill program.
In "Dumb Dora." a farce comedy
built around the antics of a servant
girl of Scandinavian descent are:
Edna Herring, who plays the servant
girl; Clement Woster, cast as her em
ployer "Mr. Hartsall,"; Til Olson, as
"Mrs. Hartsall"; Mary Swatek. as
"Arline," their daughter, and Chris
Bulin, who plays "Arline's" suitor.
Previews of the comedy indicate
that laughs in all languages, includ
ing the Scandinavian, will be ram
pant. The closing half of the show, which
will follow a group of specialties in
vaudeville style, will be entirely dif
ferent in dramatic type from the
first play, and i3 entitled "The Val
iant," an episode built around the
last minutes in the life of a man
condemned to die on the gallows.
Greth Garnctt will play the prisoner.

''The Message of Kag-gai and
Zachariah"
Two new characters are introduced
to us. Haggai, meaning "my feast,"
and Zechariah, meaning "Jehcrrah re
members." Nothing positive is known
of their ancestry nor their early life,
only that they were called for a
specific work, to encourage the re
building of the second temple, which
was done after the return from exile,
530-516 B. C. For details of the re
turn, rebuilding of the walls of Je
rusalem and the beginning of rebuild
ing of the temple and the hindrances
and discouragements, we must study
the books or Ezra and Nehimiah; the
S4th Psalm finds its place here. The
builders of this temple are Zerubbabel
and Joshua, very prominent among
the Jews. The foundation is laid
but the money brought from Babylon
gives out the work lags then it
stops entirely.
At this juncture an epoch-making
incident occurs. The Samaritans came
with a request to be allowed to help
build the temple. This was refused.
(The Samaritans consisted of the de
scendants of the Israelites who had
escaped the captivity of the northern
kingdom, and of foreign colonists who
had been brought in first by Sargon,
men of Babylon, Cuthah, Avva, Har
math and Sepharphain (II Kings 17:
21) and by Esar-haddon (Ezra 4:2).
Had the request been granted it would
have utterly destroyed the original
purpose and the future success of
such an undertaking. Undoubtedly
nany of these had become intermixed
v.iths Assyrian Colonists.
From that time on, throughout the
remaining history of Israel and into
the N. T., to the destruction of Jeru
salem, the Jews and Samaritans were
enemies. (See John 4:3). For fur
ther light, see Ezra 4:1-24.
Every undertaking for good ha3 its
enemies who seek to hinder. Now
tonics the messenger of Jehovah, with
a stirring message to the weary and
discouraged Jew3.
Kaggai is the first prophet of the
post-captivity period, an old man, sup
posed to have been born in captivity
and returned from Babylon. His work
was finished within two years. It
was his supreme mission to arouse the
Jews to rebuild the temple of Solo
mon. No prophet ever preached more
directly or more earnestly nor was
ever a prophet more successful. The
message of the prophet was to be de
livered to Zerubbabel, the governor,
and Joshua the high priest.
The lagging of the building wasjner, as well as the master builder,
condemned. They were careful to The exceeding magnificence of the

Lesson Study!
By L. Neitzel, Murdock, Neb.
Much want and misery exists in
the world because men will not ac
knowledge and serve God. Verse 7
corroborates this statement. The ad
monition is for men to "consider their
ways" stop and put God's yard
stick to their actions and see how near
they come to fulfilling Deut. 6:4-9.
Now God says, through the proph
et, "Get busy, get material and build"
and I will do my part if they would
trust him. The silver and gold are
his, and he will provide the means.
If men would serve God in the beauty
of holiness, our tdoubles would soon
disappear, the "depression" would be
a myth in fact, it would never have
happened.
The promise that the glory of this
house shall be greater than the first
temple if this passage is to be a lit
eral fulfilment, it must be in a temple
yet to be built would it point to the
temple described in Eph. 2:20-22?
Even Herod's temple did not excel
in splendor and costliness the temple
of Solomon. Assurance is given to
Zerubbabel that the building would
be completed; but the regeneration
of Israel would and the new birth of
the nation could and would not be
brought about by "might or power,
but by the Holy Spirit" who works
unobserved, quietly, like a leaven, but
produces results.
A revival cannot be produced by
artificial means, not even by an evan
gelist, to which churches often re
sort; hence the failures. Only the
spirit of God can bring life into the
spiritually dead (Ezek. 37:1-14). As
surance is given Zerubbabel that all
the obstacles, even if they were like
mountains, would disappear.
Even in Pilgrim's Progress, the
lions that Christian saw ahead in the
way, which frightened him, were
found to be chained and could only
go so far. So are oft our troubles
"take them to the Lord in prayer"
and they may even be turned into
a blessing. The "seven eyes of Je
hovah," one for each day in the week,
will observe and see all things that
could harm us, and guide us safely
past the dangers. As we look more
closely, we seem to see the lineaments
of Zerubbabel melt away into the fea
tures of the Prince of the house of
David, and the task on which he was
then engaged merged into the build
ing of the temple of Jehovah as s&t
forth by the prophet in chapter 6,
vers?s 12 to 15. (Please read).
Of this spiritual temple, he is him
self the sure foundation, the precious
cornerstone and headstone of the cor-
