Famons Cities of the Bible.
XII Rome
In our last article we gave a few
historical facts concerning this city,
today we want to point out the im
portant part Rome played in the his
tory of the church of Jesus Christ.
The apostle Paul, in his untiring eff
fort to preach the Gospel to all cret.
tures, had visited all the important
centers of populations, except Rome.
But how to get there? Dear reader,
follow us, we will show yod. how God
in his mysterious way, guides and
overrules everything to his glory,
and makes his enemies pay the sas
sage of Paul; and how he was safe
ly escorted to his destinction. Or
day. this restless preacher said to
his co-workers, "after these things
I must also see Rome," Act. 19,
21; this was his desire, but the same
was not realized very soon, he must
learn patience, our ways are not al
ways God's ways. By a circuteous
route, and through many hardships,
and after having given a good a:
count of his conversion, Act 22, and
had given a good testimony for Goi.
the Lord visits him in a vision, en
couraging him, approving his course,
assuring him, that his desire to see
Rome would soon be realized. "Be
of good cheer, Paul, for as thou ha?t
testified of me at Jerusalem so mu-i
thou bear witness also at Rome,"
Acts 23, 11. Now the events follow
fast. He is arrested at Jerusalem,
as he goes to the temple to pay his
vows, when he was recognized by
some Jews from Asia, see the accus
ations in Acts 21. 2S. the tumult
became so great, that a riot call
brought the Roman Soldiers to the
scene, who took Paul from the infur
iated mob, for the next two years he
is a prisoner at Caesaria.
During this time, he had several
hearings, but since he cannot obtain
justice, he is forced to appeal to
Caesar. Act. 25,11. While waiting
to be sent to Rome, he testifies be
fore Festus. the governor, and King
Agrippa. Paul's defense is a master
ful effort, his eloquence and persua
tive power unparalleled, making men
tremble and bringing conviction to
his hearers, the pathos of his ap
peal, was not altogether lost on King
Agrippa, hear his scul cry, "Almost
thus pursuatest me to be a Chris
tian." Then Agrippa gives his decis
ion in the case: "This man might
have been set at liberty, if he had
not apealed to Caesar," Acts 2G. 32.
Finally the day comes, when he
embarks for Rome. With what hh?h
hopes he goes aboard ship, he counts
the days when he shall see the seven
hills, the eternal city, Rome, the
fulfillment of his hearts desire. But
he does not reckon with the mishaps
he may encounter on the way the
ship wreck, the storms, the plot of
the sailors to abandon ship. Paul
frustrates this plot than follows the
rescue, the experience at Melitus and
at last Rome. It has taken a long
time for Paul to realize his hopes:
his enemies had to pay his fare, well
protected by a soldier guard he
reaches his goal, chained to a sold
ier, who is converted by Paul, he
gains favor from the court, he is
allowed to preach and teach in his
own hired hours, no man forbidding
him. Act. 28, 31.
In our next we will see what good
came from Rome.

IMMIGRATION IS REDUCED
Washington A sharp reduction in
the number of immigrants coming to
the United States as the result of new
regulations recently promulgated by
the administration was reported Fri
day by the labor department. Defi
nite figures on the decline will be is
sued within a few days in a report
on September immigration. The drop
in the number of immigrants was
attributed almost entirely to the or
der sent to American consuls to use
discretionary powers in withholding

Nehawka Oil
Drilling Equip
ment is
Sold
Rig and Equipment Will Be Taken
to Texas Where Is Will Be
Used in Oil Field.
Nehawka's lingering forlorn hopes
that the test oil well here would be
completed, went glimmering a few
days ago when the equipment here
was sold. Ralph Sturm of San An
tonio, Texas, who purchased the rig
from his father who bid it in at sher
iff's sale a few months ago sold it to
the Jay Hawk Producing and Refin
ing Co., of Brownwood, Texas.
The new owners had men here the
latter part of last week taking the
equipment apart and preparing it for
shipment. At this time it is almost
ready for shipment and will be sent
to Grand Island, Neb., where it will
be used to complete a well started
with a rotary rig. The one here is
known as a standard rig and has bet
ter facilities for putting down a test
well. It was about three years ago
that the rig was shipped here from
Texas when drilling was started. Af
ter the well had been put down a
short distance the work was stop
ped due to insufficient funds. Drill
ing was resumed at different inter
vals after the first shut down, only
to be stopped again for the same
reason.
After a long period or Idleness the
two drillers and Herman Smith of
this place, filed a claim against the
rig and it was sold at snerin s saie.
The three men bid it in to protect j brated at Lincoln on teptemDer j.tn.
themselves. However, it was not long j The newly wedded couple will make

The new owner looked for prospec
tive buyers and after a few days
succeeded in disposing of it to the
Texas firm.
Although the rig was here for
three years, the well was sunk to a
depth of only about 500 feet and at
this time Nehawka is no closer to be
ing an oil field than it was before the
drilling was started. Nehawka En

DAVIS ATTACKS DEMOCRATS
Washington Secretary Davis
Wednesday night accused the demo
cratic party of deliberately hindering
the administration in its efforts to
restore business stability and urged
Ithe re-election of a republican con
gress as a means of accelerating re
covery from the present depression.
If the democrats shoukl gain control
of congress, he said, they would im
mediately attempt a downward re
vision of the tariff. This would
force the tariff issue into the presi
dential election of 1932, he added,
and result in tariff discussion and
uncertainty for the next three years.
The cabinet member said the de
pression of 1921 was ended largely
by the operation of the Fordney
McCumber tariff bill and he pre
dicted the Smoot-Hawley act would
have the same effect upon the pres
ent slump.
He termed the present slump
"nothing to the panic we would have
had but for the president's action in
calling conferences of industrial fi
nancial and labor leaders for the
purpose of maintaining confidence."

Plea is Made
for Farmers
on Dirt Roads
Trunk Lines Is Said to
Undue Proportion
Rural Benefits
Get
of
An
Madison. Wis. A plea for the
farmer on the side road, who has
been "almost overlooked" i a the na
tion's tremendous expend. lures on
trunk highways, was voiced in the
closing sessions of the Ameri'
Country Life conference here Oct.
10.
"Not less than SO per cent of our
farmers, in the best agricultural sec
tions of our country, still live c a dirt
roads which are impassable for a
large portion of the year," said K. L.
Hatch, director of the University of
Wisconsin Agricultural Extension
Service, who emphasized the need for
more adequate agricultural roads, if
the farmer's social and economic
status is to be improved.
The need for unification of rural
thinking was emphasized by L. J.
Taber, master of the National
Grange, who urged steps to bring
grer.ter rc presentation from the
South
into the association, which.
he held, should be made a central
clearing house and forum for agri
cultural America.
Steps will be taken during the
next year, it was indicated at the
annual business conference, to cs
;.ilish a closer contact with rural
churches, rural school leaders, and
the rural press.
A committee headed by Dr. A. Z.
Mar.n of the Garrett Bible Institute
recommended that all religious agen
cies having rural life programs be
invited to participate in next year's
conference, and Mrs. A. EL Reeve,
Philadelphia, international president
of the Federation of Home and
School, instigated the formation of
a new committee to study the rural
school in its relation to American
country life.
"We must develop a more vital
type of rural education." she said,
declaring present country education
al system in many cases have be
come so impoverished that "it is im
possible for their leaders even to pay
membership fees in organizations
such as this."
The 19" 3 World's Fair at Chicago
will be asked, through the American
Country Life Association, to accord
specific recognition to American
rural culture.
The conference heard a plea from
Lorado Taft, sculptor, for a grealer
appreciation of the gifts of the ages,
and that the talent of youth, so often
wasted carelessly, be capitalized for
the common good.
"Our life is casual, without back
ground," he protested. "Our home.;
seem to be on casters lik our furni
ture, ever removing, ever changing.
Our recreations are hectic, at 40 to
50 miles an hour. Our music is yj.zz:
our drama the movie: our literature
the strident daily. Tto the other arts
we are practically immure."
Belief that the work of thf Amer
ican Country Life Association wil;
be helped and strengthened more
through intelligent farm organization
than in any other way was expressed
by James C. Stone, vice-chairman of
the Federal Farm Board, in his ad
dress Oct. 9.
Enrollment at the conference has
totalled neariy 1400 with representa
tives of 27 states attending the ses
sions. Next year's conferee cewi 11 be
