FORD PLANES

THIS
Residents Here Develop Stiff Necks
Gazing Skyward as Machines
Pass Over Ptiver.
From Wednesday's Iaily
The planes entered in the Ford Re
liability tour which arrived in Oma
ha yesterday afternoon, this morning
took off on their flight to St. Joseph
and Kansas City, passing over Platts
mouth at a few moments after 9
o'clock.
The advance announcement of the
coming of the planes had created a
great deal of interest over the city
and the residents were out when the
first plane hove into sight from the
north, closeiy followed by the sec
end of the aircraft. The planes that
followed were sent at intervals and
made a very striking jkture as they
flew through the air southward.
The planes followed th Missouri
river as their guide to St. Joseph and
most of the planes were on the Iowa
side of the river, flying at a consid
erable height. One of the larger
plants made down the Nebraska side
of the river and was clear and dis
tinct to the onlookers who had gath
ered to view their passage.
There were seventeen pirnes in
the original fleet that reached Omaha
but one was damaged in making the
landing there and was unable to con
tinue the flight on to the Missouri
cities.
There was some little disappoint
ment that the planes did not pass di
rectly over the city and especially to
George K. Pet ring, local representa
tive of the Ford company, who had
arranged a large sign on the roof of
the O. K. garage to greet the flyers,
but their guide evidently decided
that the river was the best guide for
the flyers on their trip from Omaha
and that route accordingly was taken.

BIBLE SCHOOL LESSON
Sunday, October 4, 1825
By M. 8. Brigga
r
$
Golden Text: "In Him we live and
move and have our being." Acts
17:28.
Looking for Something New
From Btrea Paul with a number
!of the newly organized church at
! Berea left that town on account of
persecution and went to the sea
coast, where they found a ship bound
for Athens, they accompanying him
the entire way and securing lodging
for him, they then returned, taking
word to Silas and Timothy to come
immediately to him at Athens.
Paul was not rugged and it was
necessary that the others be with
him in order to assist him.
While he vlis waiting for them,
he was getting acquainted with the
city of wonderful philosophers, poets,
artisans, players, musicians and
saterests. Paul went about the tity
and observed the great buildings, the
manners of the people. He observed
at every turn some new evidence of
another god which this people wor
shiped. Among others he saw an
alter erected to the unknown god. so
that if after gcing through the lists
of the idols or the man-made gods,
they thought they may have missed
the one in which they were in quest,
they erected an altar to what they
saw fit to call the unknown god. As
Paul traversed the city he was no
doubt reminded that at that great
city there had lived many great men
among them Plato, Demosthenees,
Socrates. Perecles. Sophocles, Earip
ides, Aristophanes and a muc h larger
list. Then he reasoned and rightly
that this city was living in the veri
table shadows of these great men,
and they would be lookine for some
thing new. Nor was Paul disap
pointed. Going to the Acropolis or
"Mars Hill." which was the greet
cut doors ampitheatre where the
crowds of the city met and where
people gathered to discuss questions
whi-h might ome up. Here Paul
found people to whom he could tell
the story of the Master whose church
hp was endeavoring to establish and
whose servant he was, and from the
small beginnings the millions of peo
p!e now do homage to that Son of
the most high God. the creator of
the r.niverse.
Before Paul had gone to "Mars
Hill" to the Arropogas. he had been
at the Agora, or fish market. Here
as the men worked. Paul reasoned
every dny ttllmg the story of the
crucified one who was indeed the
very Christ. Here he received a
hearing at the hands of the lowly
folks who were glad to learn of the
one who had given his life to pur
chase them from sin.
How different these from the peo
ple whom he met cn Mars Hill, where
the Parthenon rears its eminent col
umns, making an out door gathering
place away above the city as well as
the sea. which was plainly visible.
The Agora, much like a well kept
market place, in our large cities, was
divided into different sections, they
ht-ing marked. Millers. Fishmungus.
Tailors. Confections. Cheesemonges,
Crockery shops. Apple sellers. Onion
sellers.. Ladies' stuff, books, and so
on through the whole category of
what people require.
At both these places the people of
Athens met to hear and discuss the
matters of interest and find if it be
possible some new thing. The phil
osophers after a short time heard of
the preaching of Paul and sought to
hear him.
They laid hold of Paul in a friend
ly manner and took him to Mars hill,
overlooking Athens and the bay
where the shipping lay. These philo
sophers, of which there were two
classes, the stoics, who believed that
all things would be absorbed by God
and a new world cycle would be be
gun as before and the Epicureans,
who believed in having a good time,
satisfying their appetites and pas
sions. Both being materialists, the
rrev. J followed and Paul was given a
large audience to whom to tell the
glories of the Christ, whether they
should believe it or not.
Picture, if you can, the setting as
Paul stands there in this open air
forum ready to begin his address to
these curious peoule4
Here on "Mars Hill" many a cul
prit had been sentenced to death. On
the very platform where the ambas
sador of the Christ now stood, De
mosthenes had stood and uttered his
breathing thoughts in burning words
nnd here Socrates had made his de
fense but was condemned never
theless and was made to drink the
fatal hemlock.
On a shelving rock nearby stood
the Temple of Furies, while above
towered the Temple of Mars.
At this time to this curious crowd,
Pnul brought a new message, a new
religion, the veritable Christianity
a solution should they care to accept
it, of peace to a troubled world.
Paul stood in the midst of the
Areopagus and said: "Ye men of Ath
ens, in all things I perceive that ye
are very religious. For as I passed
along and observed the" objects of
your worship. I found also an alter
with this inscription, 'To an un
known God.' What therefore ye wor
ship in ignorance, this I set forth
unto you. The God that made the
world and all things therein, he be
ing Lord of heaven and earth, dwell
eth not in temples made by hand.
Neither is he server by man's hand,
as though he needed anything, see
ing he himself giveth life to all. and
breath, and all things. And he made
of one every nation of men to dwell
on the face of the earth, having de
termined their appointed seasons and
the bounds of their habitatieus. That
they should-seek God, if hapily they
might feel after him and find him,
though he be not far from each one
cf us. For in him we live and move
and have our being; as certain as
ever your own poets have said, 'For

we are also his offsprings.' Being
therefore the offspring of God, we
ought net to think the God hard
like unto gold, or silver, cr stones,
graven by act or the device of man.
The times of ignorance therefore God
overlooked, but now he commnndeth
men everywhere that they should all
repent. Inasmuch as he hath ap
pointed a day in which he will judge
the world in righteousness, by the
man who he hath ordained, whereof
he hath given assurance unto all men
in that he has raised him from the
dead."
Now, when they had heard of the
resurrection from the dead, some
mocked, while others said, "We will
hear the truth concerning this yet
again." Paul then went out from
among them.
But certain men clung unto him,
among whom was Dicnyr.j-js, the
Areopogite, and a woman, Damatus,
and others with them.
While Paul preached a masterful
disceurse and won some to the cause
of the Master, he was not able to
establish a church at Athens. The
people loved pleasure and did not ac
cept the preaching of the apostle.
From Athens he went to Cerinth,
however, where he established a
strong church which will be the sub
ject of next Sunday's lesson.

"It was the first time I performed
in the movies and it was one ef the
most thrilling experiences of my life
to sit in the theatre Saturday and ttee
myself perform." he said.
Hankinson has bee n prevailed up

after performing since he was 14. He
has recently opened a fruit Ptand in
