to 12.
The game Friday will not only be
the last of the season but will be
the last home game that the larger
majority of the team will play in the

Securing the Workers
Moses once made the mistake of
trying to do all the work himself,
and as he tried petty offenses and triv
ial matters at the gate of the city,
his entire time was occupied, so that
- tue weightier matters naa to awau
on some affair of little moment. He
was visited by his father-in-law,
Jethro, who while he was a heathen,
was a man of great observation, and
when he saw that Moses was occu
pied from morning until night, he
said unto him, "Why do you not orga
nize this proposition of administering
justice and have some help, that the
people may not have to wait for the
justice which they are entitled to and
so you be not worn out with the ad
ministering of trivial matters?"
And Moses did recognize the logic
of his father-in-law's inquiry, estab
lishing a system of jurisprudence that
has come down through the ages to
the present day. with a judiciary that
contemplated the lower courts, vest
ed with the power of settling most
of the difficulties which come to the
human race. Then come the higher (
tribunals to which an appeal can be '
had, and also the highest courts that
look alter the settling of cases of
greater moment and more difficult in
their technique. ;
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came
into the world long years after this,
and in Him was bestowed the au
thority, but as he came to give his
life as a ransom for mankind, he:
must needs go, for the great plan of'
salvation contemplates that much of
the work of regeneration of mankind,
was to be done by the people them
selves. Therefore the Master estab
lished a' school to train his workers
for the completion and carrying on
of the work which He himself estab
lished and was to leave to others fol
lowing in his footsteps, to complete, j
Selecting the Twelve j
In the selection of the ones v. ho
were to be his witnesses, he chose
twelve men, no two of them alike in;
trmperment, but all steadfast in char-;

the cause, and who did, with the sin-!
gle exception of Judas Iscariot, who
would not take the advice of the
Master or benefit by His teachings, i
The firr.t of the twelve to be called ;
were the four fishermen, Peter and
Andrew, brothers, and James and
Jchn, likewise brothers. They were
hardy, honest and reliable men, with
a feeiing of riependance on them-,
selves and inured to toil and expos-',
ure that made them strong adherents
of the new salvation and enabled
them to stand upright before God.
and man when the stress of times
would have caused weaker men to
give way. Andrew, while not a!
meteoric worker, was ever alert forj
an opportunity to do good by bring-J
nig someone to the Master. And he
brought his brother, Simon Peter in-j
to the fold, who became a worker

only his but his companions' skill as
well, to save their property and their
souls.
These were the type of men which
Christ required for His ministry
men who would stand steadfast for
their convictions when the test of
Christianity was swaying in the bal-j
ance men who although possessed)
of the frailties of human weakness
could stand the test and eventually
give even life itself for the cause of
the Master and the ideals which they
had come to hold most dear.
All admire the loyalty of a friend,
rightly considered one of the noblest
traits of human character. Because
of the lovable disposition of John,
who was a very young man when
tailed to labor in the cause of the
Master, he was considered the dis
ciple whom Jesua loved most. Mat
thew was a tax collector, and was
chosen not because of this, but not
withstanding this fact, for he wan
profitable to the carrying on of the
work which was designed to be done.
Thomas was a doubter and had to be
shown. And thus wc see, for some
distinct purpose was every one of the
disciples chosen, and admirably ful-j
filled the purpose tor wnicn ne was
selected.
Sends the Twelve Out
After the selection of the twelve.
they were instructed to go out and
bear the message of salvation to a
lost world, and as their credentials
that they were indeed the messen
gers of the Mesiah, they were given
power and commanded to go out and
performed healings and cleansings,
and enabled to cast out demons and
to heal the sick, and, it appears to
us, to forgive sins, for they removed
the things which the sins caused.
They Were Well Equipped
They were commanded by the Mas
ter not to take with them script of
coin or anything of monetary value,
neither two changes of footwear cr
clothing, but when they went to a
place and entered a home, that home
was blessed and they remained there
during their stay and in most cases
were received with pleasure, and they
preached the coming of the kingdom
of God. and were a great troop of ad-
i vertisers of the Master, and awaken
ed much interest in the coming ot
! the Master himself. . j
The Master said unto them, "In
case that some will not receive you
and likewise Me that sent you, and
the Father which sends us all, when
you leave that place shake the very
dust from your garments and your
feet as a testimonial against such a
home and a city."
The disciples thereupon, went out
and performed miracles and did much

healing, which no doubt was a sur
prise to even the disciples them
selves. They preached the coming of
the Kingdom of Heaven. The bur
den of their preaching was that all
men should repent of their sins and
ccme to the Master, who had healing
in his hands for all..
The true test of salvation and ser
vice is the things which we can do
for others.
A story is told of a vessel which
sighted a derelict, and with the
most powerful glasses on board, the
deck of the crippled boat was search
ed to determine if there might re
main any survivors, but none were
sighted. However a boat was lower
ed and upon coming on deck many
were found dead, and one man aliv;,
though as much dead as alive. He
was taken to the other ship and re
storatives applied and he was re
vived sufficient to murmur that an
other living man wan aboard the ill
fated derelict. That man 'had the
true Christian spirit, for he was
wanting the other fellow saved as
well as himself.
We visited the Evangelical Bible
school of Plattsmouth lat Sunday
aid found they were intensely in
terested in the study of the lesson,
and the adult class under the lead
ership of their pastor, the Rev.
Wichman, was doing excellent work,
as well as the entire school.
Those who are wont to minimize
the accomplishments of the Sunday
school as a training center, would
marvel at the falling off of interest
in Christianity should this powerful
agency for good have its activities
curtailed and as a moulder of young
men and young women the Sunday
schools of the nation fill a place of
great importance in the plan of sal
vation as contemplated by the Mas
ter himself.
