Dsvo "Pbilip'3 Missionary Labors" (Acts 8:26-40) This lesson should be studied to find the nature,, the art and the joy of personal work in soul saving. Philip had a love for souls, a knowl edge of the word, and a sensitiveness in the leading of the Lord. That i3 all we need. If every Christian were a Philip, the world would be won for Christ in ten years. Of the four Thilip recorded in the gospels, the one named in the lesson is Philip not, satisfied with the gods or re ligion of his country seeking some thing that will satisfy the hunger of his soul "seek and ye shall find" what he saw and heard in Jerusalem did not satisfy him God leads him to buy a school, of holy writ, and it happens to be the writing of Isaiah. He had made a good purchase. Oh, the wonderful leading of God! Here is an "unfilled" preacher in Sychar Here is a hungry soul after righteousness they are 60 miles Dam.

Following the performance there, Mr. Anderson went on to Ashland, where he is stationed with the Ne braska National Guardsmen during their annual encampment period, be ing a member of one of the companies. the deacon. We find him on a preach-, apart God calls the preacher and ing tour in a town of Samaria called he obeys; the traveler and preacher Sychar, where Jesus had met a wom an at the well, and through her he stayed two day3 in the city. We meet Philip only once more in Cacsarea (Acts 21:8) being host to Paul and his company. The great revival at Sychar, which was started by Philip, has been duplicated mil lions of times since, and by the same means, namely by preaching Christ; the only God-appointed v.-ay, for bringing God and man together in Christ Jesus. "And there was great joy in that city," it is the natural consequence great joy, for salvation that had come to them. Zacharius received the Lord with great joy. Mil lions had the same experience. Peter and John are sent from Jeru salem to investigate and report. They also took , part in the revival, and a second pentecost followed. The inci dent with Simon Magus, shows that men in all ages have tried to coun terfeit the genuine i. e. to deceive nobody will imitate or counterfeit a bad coin only the good. "Traffic in sacred things" was the outcome "Sinnony." 1 But Philip, fired with a holy seal for souls, and full of en thusiasm from the recent revival got a call from God for a special mission; from the crowded city to a lovely road in . an uninhabited region did he hesitate and wonder if he had understood the Lord right!

A good example to follow for Chris tians on a journey, to have God's word with them to feed on, instead of papers, magazines or story books. We should get acquainted with this traveler.

Miss Iola McQuinn, who is mak ing her home at Hamburg, Iowa, visited over the week end at the meet prearranged by God. The traveler takes the preacher for a ride. The man of such a high station in life, is not too proud to confess that he does not know all, but is willing to be taught. Reading Isa. 53, is hard for many to understand. But the Holy Spirit is present, who will interpret the word. "Do you understand what you are reading?" We should often stop and ask ourselves, "What does this or that mean?" God will give us light, or direct someone to enlighten us. Philip had found an answer to his own questioning and reasoning. This is the special mission. Now he i3 glad that he had gone the lone jour ney what a glorious opportunity to preach "Jesus" unto the small aud ience. . . Well his Master had such an aud ience oncc the Samaritan woman at the well here is Philip with an aud ience of one. (This writer had the same experience 54 years ago). But look at the result; while Philip held up Jesus to this man, the Holy Spirit opens the Eunoch's understanding, light foods his soul, that is what he wanted needed; eagerly he takes Christ as his savior, he is ready and willing to comply with any rule or rite that shall and can complete the work of regeneration there is water for baptism the chariot is halted, the rite is performed then' the two part Philip turns up at AzotU3 (30 miles from Guza the Ethiopian goes on hi3 way rejoicing, he had found Jesu3, .who would abide with him. So the gospel was carried into the "dark continent." So God carries on his work, and uses consecrated lay men as well as. ordained preachers to witness to the power of God who can save to the uttermost, all that call on Him. The lesson is this: Every earnest seeker is assured help from God; and God has "always the right man for the right place ready; and joy and peace, that passeth understanding are the reward of every earnest endeavor r it is God's free gift through Jesus 12:15-1:30 Lunch at Home Eco- home of her patents, Mr. and Mrs T-., . .
