Parables of Jesns.
By L. Neitzel.
THE UNJUST JUDGE Luck 18:1-8
Our Lord teaches His followers a
remarkable lesson in this parable
that of persistance in prayer. Xo
follower of Christ can maintain his
relation with Him one day. without
prayer. Prayer is the breath of the
Soul: it is communion with the
Deity; the soul of man feeds upon
prayer, it is its daily bread, because
people pray so little, therefore so
many lean Christians, so little of
the Master's spirit shown in the lives
of man. so much strife, backbitting.
intolerance and wars.
, I
prayer.
Does the Lord answer
Yes! But only in His own way. God
often tries man's faith, by riot ans
wering at once. Elijah had to call
seven times on God to send rain,
when he prayed on MouTit Carniel.
Paul called on God three different
times to remove the thorn out of
his flesh, God answered by giving
Mm grace to bear it. Jesus had to
call three times on His Father, and
His prayer was answered by a minis
tering angel, who strengthened Him.
Peter nrayed. fell into a trance and
God revealed lo him His will, in
showing him that He is no respecter
I of persons. In Acts 4:31 we read:
"And when they had prayed, the
place was shaken." In this parable
Jesus says there was a widow, who
had been robbed, by a rich neigh
bor, taking advantage of the death
of her husband, and stolen her land.
There was a judge on the bench at
that time that had no regard for
'God or man. (He must have been
1 a heathen judge, for the Jews re
' quired a sevenfold qualification,
'prudence, gentlenes. piety, hatred of
mammon, love of truth, that they
may be loved, and of good report).
(This widow went again and again.
to plead her case without getting to
! the judge. But her persistence at
I last prevailed: it overcome the
i judge's resistance, he says'! "Though
I fear not God nor regard man. yet
because this widow tioubledi me, 1
will avenge her, lest by her con
tinual coming se weary me." Luk"
18:4-5. In this parable God is not
so much compared to the unjust
judge as courasted with him. The
great compassionate heart of God
pities His children. He may delay
the answer, for reasons of His own.
but He hears before they call I.sah
lf.24i He will answer "Like as a
lather pitieth his children, so the
Lord pitieth them that fear him."
Psaims 103:12. God does take care
of his own. The question: Can a
person "pray without ceasing?"
should find an answer here. We do
not hesitate to say yes. The follower
of Christ should never be out of
tnich with his Lord: never inoulue
; in anything where he could not ask
Cod to bless what he is doing..
His disciples must keep the temple I
j of the Holy Spirit clean, pure, unde
filed. The prayerful attitude can
only be maintained, if men will "do
I all to the glory of God." The ' what
soever" covers men's life in all his
: phases. Since men lives in a world.
' where nothing is certain, it behoves
him to be found at all time in such
Ian attitude, that he can meet his
Grd. "Therefore be ye also ready.
: for in such an hour as ye think not,
the Son of man cometh. Who then
jis a faithful and wise servant, whom
'his Lord hath made ruler over his
household, to give them meat in due
season? Blessed is that servant, whom
his Lord, when he cometh. shall find
so doing." Math. 24:44-46. There
fore "watch and pray."

Wedding bells were ringing last
Sunday afternoon, when Elsie, the
only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chas.
Kupke. of Murdock, gave her hand
and heart to Mr. Martin Bolsen of
Omaha to keep and cherish.
It was a gala occasion. Trinity
Lutheran church pilar was banked
iu flowers, the church was filled to
capacity with friends and well
wishers of the highly contracting
parties. A chum of the bridegroom
from Omaha presided at the organ.
At the hour of four, broke forth the
strains of Mendolsohn's wedding
march, and the ushers and best men
with the bridesmaids entered and
took their stations, followed by the
bride, leaning on the arm of her
father, who gave her into the keep
ing of the bridegroom.
The Reverend G. A. Zoeh spoke
to them, from First Chronicles 17:
27, words of advice, exhortation and
admonition, if they will be follow
ed, will assure them the blessings of
Ciod. which are needed for a use
ful and successful life. The text and
isontr were selected ny the young peo
ple themselves.
The choir rendered a beautiful
selection for their departing choir
leader. Murdock is losing a very
lovely, charming young lady, and
Omaha is gaining a very substantial
help for their choir and in their
; young peoples meeting. 1 lie young
folks will make their home in Oma

In one of the largest banks. They
will occupy their own home which
Mr. Bolsen recently purchased.
Our best wishes follow them.

Fair Board
Admits Figures
are Misleading
About One-Third of the Attendance
at the State Fair Are Ad
mitted Free-.
Lincoln. Neb.. June 12. Discrep
ancies in published attendance fig
ures for the state fan and the cash
gate receipts are explaneid ni a state
ment being distributed by George
Jackson, secretary of the fair, to
members of the legislature.
The fair board i seeking a 75
thousand-dollar appropriation from
the legislature, and legislators have
been quite critical iii their inquiries
regarding the ability of the fair to
pay for itself.
"We must admit that these fig
ures are very misleading," Jackson
said in his report referring to the
differences between attendance fig
ures and gate receipts. "Over one
third of our attendance was admit
ted free."
"This doesn't mean, however, that
we are passing out free passes to
friends and influential citizens." he
said.
The distribution ol tree passes was
explained as follows.
Five tickets to each of seven mem
bers of the fair board. Two to each
elective state officer and member of
the legislature. Two to each of 452
newspapers in exchange for free ad
vert isinii. Two to the president and
secretary of every county fair in the
state. Tickets to about 15 thousand
members of the Boy- and Girls clubs.
Contestants in the spelling bee and
band eontestr are admitted free. Offi
cers and employes of the Lancaster
county fair receive 130 passes. Em
ployes of the state fair require about
six hundred passes. A pass is issued
for every 510 paid for concession
rights. Civil War veterans, persons
in charge of state institution ex
hibits and Lincoln police and fire de
partment employes are on the free
list.
NEW LEADERSHIP WANTED
Paris Assorting the debts of the
World war must be charged to "prof
it an.d loss." Dr. Nicholas Murray
Butler, president of Columbia uni
versity, told members of the Ameri
can club at r. luncheon that the world
needed new men who would take a
constructive lead in the present eco
nomic and social crisis. All that has
been done toward seeking a solu
tion for the present situation, he
said, was to try to find somebody to
pay the cost of the World war.
"We might just as well try to find
somebody to pay the cost of operat
ing the sun." he added. "It can't he
done."
Those who heard Dr. Butler's
speech included Senator Goff. of Wes
Virginia: former Senator Hitchcock
of Nebraska. Robert E. Olds, former
undersecretary ef state, and Adolph
Ochs. publisher of the New York
Times.

Al Capone as

Set Bail at $50,000; 68 Others Ac

With 5,000 Offenses
Chicago, June 12. Alphonse Ca
pone and CS other defendants, many
of them members of his liquor-vice-gambling
syndicate, were indicted
by a federal grand jury Friday for
conspiracy to violate the national
prohibition law.
The indictments charge members
of Capone's gang with 5,000 offenses.
His bond was fixed at $50,000.
The gang leader was indicted just
a week ago for violating the income
tax laws, the government charging
he owed $215,080.48 on a six-year
income of $1,08,654.84. He is al
ready under six months' sentence for
contempt of court.
A continuous conspiracy from
1931 when the law went into ef
fect until the present is alleged,
the purpose being to "manufacture
and transport beer for beverage pur
poses to the Chicago area on a large
scale."
The unit of manufacture was al
leged to be a 1.500 gallon vat or beer
and the unit of transportation an'
automobile truck load of 30 barrels
of beer.
Capone is charged with purchas
ing trucks from the Btz Motor Co.
in Hammond. Ind., which were used
to transport beer and then receiving
by telegraphic money order payments
for the beer.
A meetiug is also described in
which Capone, Joseph C. Fusco.
("eorge Rowlett. Bert Delaney and
Jack Heinan (all defendants! are
alleged to have "discussed ways and
means for the accomplishing of the
objects of said unlawful and felon
ious conspiracy." The government
charges the meeting was held June
12. 1930. at the Lexington hotel, a
Capone hangout, in Chicago.
Fusco appears from the indictment
to have been Capone's second on com
mand in the syndicate. Others prom
inent in the list of defendants are
Michael Potson. who has been in
terested in several Chicago cafes and
roadhouses: Delaney a Capone lead
er, who was recently arrested when
he attempted to re-enter a large
brewery that had been seized by pro
hibition agents, and Nick Juffra. al
so konwn as Rrank Ross, and Joseph
D'Angelo.
Nearly four years ago Capone. his
brother. Ralph, and more than 100
others, were indicted in connection
with an alleged syndicate operated
in Cicero, Stickney and other sub
urbs. Nearly two years later the
indictment was dismissed without
any of the defendants being tried.

Trinity Walther League of Murdock
is a member, will hold its t9tb In- J

June 1'lst to 25th.
The Walther League is an interna-
tional association of Lutheran yumg .
people's societies within the Syr.'jfi
cal Conference. The ten objects of .
the Walther League are: To assist
in keeping young people within the i
Church; To promote systematic study
of the Bible: To assist in training
well-informed and efficient Church
workers; To establish and maintain
a hospice system for the welfare of
fellow Lutherans and others who are
away from home: To further love
for, and active participation in. the
mission work of the Church, especial-
ly in foreign mission work: To fos
ter Christian love, fellowship and i
sociability: To encourage the sup
port of charitable endeavors within
the Church: To promote loyalty to
the Christian home: To help organize
and maintain societies: To unite all
young people's societies in the Syn
odlcal Conference into one body and
thus to establish a closer outward
union between them.
The Walther League stands four
square upon the Word of Cod as re
vealed in the Holy Bible. As a Lu
beran organization it holds with
the Luthera" Miurch that the con
fessions embodied in the Book of
Concord, are a true and correct in
terpretation of Scripture.
The League was organized on Mav

teen delegates, representing 693
young people in twelve societies.
In choosing its name, the League
paid honor to Dr. C. P. W. Walther.

Conference, who was also one of the
first churchmen in America to advo
cate a union of young people's so
cieties. The official emblem of the Leagtn

and white, on a black field, with the
inscription "Walther League.-' The
