Sunday,. June 20th
f Joseph's Kindness to His Brethren"
l Gen. 4C:l-7, 2S-30; 50:24-26
The superscription of this lesson
rhould be: "God! Love Faith
Mope Peace."
With this lesson we conclude the
3rst half of the sojourning of the
jatriarchs in the promised land.
Two hundred and fifteen years have
jone by since the call of Abraham
jntil Jacob moves to Egypt. An
)ther two hundred and fifteen and
Moses leads the descendants of Jacob
ut of Egypt; which corresponds
Aith Ex. 12:40-41. These conclud
ng chapters of Genesis are rich with
luman experience. The caption of
his lesson is demonstrated through
jut. Love is seen in that Joseph
Dlans and provides for his father and
his household the best that Egypt
las. His rather had cared for him
seventeen years. The father reaps
i rich harvest for these seventeen
Fears. So should children care for
their parents that would relieve
)ur Nation and State of the burden
f furnishing "old age assistance."
Love causes Joseph to forgive his
brethren the sin committed. The ten
lerness of his heart is revealed when
he assures them in these words:
'Fear not ... ye thought evil against
me, but God meant unto good . . . 1
will nourish you and your children."
With these comforting words hope
sprang up in tlfe breast of these
men. Faith was established, full
confidence between Joseph and his
brethren and a lasting peace.
With the return of Jacobs sons
from Joseph with the joyful news
that Joseph was alive and a lord
over all Egypt, he did not believe
them, only when he saw the wagons
that should carry him to his son did
his heart find words: "It is enough.
Joseph, my son, is yet alive. I will
go and see him before I die;" and
to Pharaoh be can say: "The days of
the years of my pilgrimage . . . are
ifew and evil;" but they have come
ito an end also; from now on no
more "evil days," but in the midst
! 'of a reunited family, in a land of
plenty, he leads a peaceful, content
fed life.
I But we return in our narrative to
; Canaan and take leave of the old
I home, where Jacob experienced so
many sad and evil days, and still
'he had many visits from God assur
, ing him that he would make all his
promises good, and bring him (his
body) surely back to the old home
and he should be buried with his
father and Leal. So the caravan
starts out for Tgypf, they come to
".Beer-Sheba, theb order of Canaan, a
Good Price for Corn.
Gayle Sturm shelled and delivered
his corn on Monday of this week, the
same being delivered to the Nehawka
elevator where he got $1.20 per cu.
for it. The price of corn is receding
at thi3 time as the growing crops of
oats, wheat and corn are making
good advances.
Ended with Picnic.
The Daily Vacation Bible school
which has been conducted by the
Methodist church of Nehawka for the
past two weeks was closed last Fri
day and the closing was accompanied
by a picnic of the scholars. It was
expected that the diplomas were tol
be awarded as this time but as they
were not ready they will be given at
the Bible school the coming Sunday.
Consoidated Two Events.
Children's day was to be observed
by the Methodist Bible school last
Sunday but by some event things
were not in readiness so it was post
poned until the coming Sunday when
it will be staged in conjunction with
Father's day which comes next .Sun
day. A very interesting program is
expected.
Conclude the Year's Work.
The last meeting for the year of
the members of the Busy Workers
of the Methodist church in Nehawka
was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Oren Pollald last Wednesday and a
picnic was held last Saturday which
concluded the year's work of the so
ciety until early in the fall when
they will become active again.
Visited at Manley.
Robert McDonald and ramily were
over to Manley last Sunday where
they visited at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. O. E. McDonald, parents of Rob
ert. The family of Will Meyers was
also present, where all enjoyed a
very pleasant visit. They at that time
distributed the effects of Grandmoth
er Myra McDonald, who passed away
a few weeks ago.

last service and sacrifice is offered
to Jehovah; the new venture must
not be undertaken without the con
sent of God. Many failures would
be avoided if man would consult
with God. Moses said: "I will not
go except thou goest with us." Cer
tainly I will be with thee, was God's
answer. j
Well they are on their way; they
reach Egypt and are directed to
Gcshen, the most fertile part of the
upper Nile valley, their new home.
Seventy-six in all in two hundred
and fifteen years they number over
2,740,000. Here goes the nucleau
of a great nation, when they leave
Egypt they are a great number, but
after forty years in the wilderness,
Moses had moulded them into a
nation. Their life in Goshen was
necessary to keep them a unit; they
must not separate and mix with the
Gentiles; they are to be a "peculiar
people."
Marvelously, God's deep laid plans
and purposes are here revealed, and
the way they are carried out. The
partiality of Jacob to Joseph started
the brothers to envy, which led to
hatred, which led to crime. The
crime brought Joseph to the place
where God could use him. Should
man do evil that good may come
out of it? The thirteen years of
slave and prison life, and a close
walk with God, ripened a man into
an instrument for God's purposes.
When needed he had his man
ready. (Think of Moses' SO years of
schooling ) .
Genesis closes with Jacob's vale
dictory or the blessing of his sons.
One hundred fifty-five years later we
see Moses repeating the scene. (See
Deut. 34). In this period God ac
complished and fulfilled his promise
made to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
The death and burial of Jacob is
Kings received such honors; but
Jacob was i "prince with God" and
was honored as such. A great man
had left the world his descendants
are scattered all over the face of the
earth a distinct race. He was the
ancestor of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
He left a legacy to the human race
in him are all the nations of the
earth are blessed through Christ an
offended God is reconciled through
Christ a way is opened by which man
can come to God, receive remission
of his sins the adoption into God's
family become an heir, joint-heir
with Christ heir of eternal life.
Christ, the twelve patriarchs and
twelve apostles are the foundation
of the Kingdom of God to them we
owe our salvation. Hallelujah!
are and have been busily engaged in
mixing grasshopper poison for the
pests at the Sheldon Manufacturing
company. Bran and sawdust are
mixed with the poison. The only
cost is for the poinson, the other in
gredients being furnished by the gov
ernment, thus making the poison less
expensive. We visited the works at
the factory and found the mixers
very busy.
Enjoyed Picnic Dinner.
Last Sunday at the home of Harold
Dodson and wife was gathered the
families of Olaf Lundberg, Verner
Lundberg, and Alba Dodson where
they went prepared for a good time
and sure they had it, as they took
plenty of good things to eat and
among them a liberal quantity of
fried chicken.
Wanted to Buy. .

Heavy Rain
Sweeps Over
Cass County
Heavy Bain Brings High Water in
Business Section of City Late
Saturday Night.
The southern part of Nebraska Sat
urday received one of the heaviest
rains of the early summer season,
1.82 inches being registered here
Sunday as the result of the down
pour. The rain commenced in this city
shortly before 10 o'clock and con
tinued in increasing force until after
midnight, the waters from the hills
sweeping down into the main sec
tion of the city and bringing up the
water to the curbs along Sixth street
and leaving in its wake quantities
of mud and debris.
The amount of debris washed
down from the hills was not as great
however as in former high water,
the water courses over the city being
cleaned out and able to carry the
flood waters in better shape.
In the country there was some
washing of corn reported and in the
southwest part of the county there
was a great deal of the grain blown
down by the force .of the wind and
in Lancaster county the wind swept
at tornado like velocity and caused
much damage.
Community is
Visited by Very
Heavy Rainfall
Eainfall Here Beaches 1.87 and
Caused Overflow of Water
ways Over City.
From Wednesday's Daily
The community last evening was
visited by another of the torrential
rainfalls that in the short time that
it raged brought a total of 1.S7
inches in this city and which caused
the overflow of waterways in all sec
tions, leaving large quantities of
mud and silt in its wake.
The rain falling in sheets shortly
after 6 o'clock soon brought a raging
torrent of water down Chicago ave
nue, this section draining for several
miles in the country, the water mov
ing off swiftly and was soon on its
way to the business section of the
city. A few moments after the south
side waterways were pouring their
burden into the avenues and Sixth
street, the north side creek started to
overflow and it also added its part
to the miniature flood.
While the water on Sixth street
reached the top of the curb on the
east side of the street, the efforts of
members of the fire department, al
most hip deep in water, opened sev
eral of the intakes and allowed the
water to subside without serious
damage.
The flood water left in its wake
a heavy deposit of mud along both
north and south Sixth street and
along the avenues, undoing the work
of the city street department which
had been busy washing the streets
and leaving the work all to be done
over again.
The rapid rise of the water was
due largely to the fact'that the small
sewer inlets fail to carry off the
water, grass and debris choking up
the openings where the iron retards
hold the debris and in a few moments
have the sewers plugged so that little
water can enter. The removal of the
irons should be tried to see if it will
not help the situation as each heavy
rain brings on a repetition of the
high water.
The rain in the nearby districts
was very heavy and the creeks were
soon running bank full and overflow
ing into the lowlands along their
courses and doing some damage.
HEAR COMPENSATION CASE
From Tuesday's Daily
District Judge W. W. Wilson was
