"John Picpares the Way for Jesus"
Mail: 1:1-11.
Beginning the new year with the
study of the second Gospel by Mark,
it may be worthwhile to introduce the
writer and his gospel. His full name
wa3 John Mark; he lived in Jerusa
lem and was the son of Mary, who
gave Ler upper room for the last
suppor; also two appearances of the
Lcrd took place in this room; Matthi
as wre chosen here to take the place
c-fJuda.s Iscarloth; the descent of the
Holy Spirit" at - PentesosV the mani
fcsYatfcnTof: thTHoIy Spirit following
the, prayer of the disciples when Pe
ter 'and John were released by the
Sanhedrin and the coming of Peter
when freed frcm prison by the angel
all took place there. It is also
thcught that "the man with the pit
cher" who showed Peter and John the
way to the upper room before the last
tuppcr was Mark. He was the cousin
of Barnabas, Paul's companion on his
first missionary tour. A convert of
Teter (I Peter, 5:13). In Mark 15:
51, mention is made of a certain
young man, who is supposed to have
been Mark. He was with Paul and
Barnabas, as they went to the Gen
tile, but as they went through
Cyprns, Mark left them and returned
to Jerusalem. (Acts 13:12). Ulti
mately the breach between Paul and
Mark was healed as seen in Phile
mon, v. 24 and Col. 4:10.
The four gospels give us four dif
ferent view-pcint3 of the Master'3 life
giving us fcur aspects of our Savior
all cf them merging into one majes
tic and beautiful whole. Mathew
shows us Christ as king; Mark shows
U3 Christ a3 servant; Luke shows us
Christ as the Son of Man, and John
shows us Christ as God.
Gregory presents Mathew as the
Gcspcl for the Jew; Mark as the
Gcsnc cf the Roman; Luke as the
Grspe! for the Greek and John as the
Gcspcl for the church. Mathew pic
tures Jesus as the promised Messiah;
Mark exhibits him a3 the mighty
worker; .- Luke chows him as th
friend cf mankind and John portrays
him ar. the dovine man-made flesh.
"Outside the New Testament, he is
described as an evangelist, as Peter's
compan'on in Rcme, as sent by Peter
cn- a mission into Egypt, and as the
founder of the church in Alexandria
(Rev. H. T. Sell).
Our lesson Is divided into three
sections: I The Herald of Christ
foretold (V. 1-3); II The Herald of
Christ preaching (V. ,4-8); III The
Heral(5 baptising Christ (V. 9-11).
I Isaiah and Malachi, 700 and 400
years before the events of cur lesson.
make mention of the coming of John
the Eaptist (Isa. 40:3; Mai. 3:1)
"The vclee of him that crieth in the
wilderness" . . . "Beheld I will send
my messenger and he shall prepare
the way before me."
Mark 'a . is " the news-letter, the
"special-extra" of the days of the
apcst!e3. '. Every page has its startling
Leadlrr.es. The "wonderful" has
come. .Gcd did not leave the world in
doubt and darkness, concerning his
p!an3 fcr the redemption of the world.

can point his finger and with a glad
shout exclaims: "Behold the Lamb of
God, which taketh away the sin of
the world." John 1:29. John the
Eaptist, had prepared the , way by
preaching and calling men to repent
ance. All along through the Old
Testament, God had prepared the way
for the coming of his Son. John the
Baptist was the last of a long line of
heralds, the immediate and glorious
preparer of the way of the. Lord. .
II The . Herald of Christ Preach
ing: .John Js.ihe.-qnepersoa , who was
never converted- .05ee' Luke 1 : 157.
John had spent thirty years in prep
aration for his work, the same as did
Jesus. He preached six months,' .then
Jesus, his cousin," appears 'and Is bap
tised by John, who now can well say,
"He must Increase, but I must de
crease." (John 3:30). His eloquence
and style of preaching brought great
crowds to him. He' was the preacher
peculiarly fitted for his work. Being
the child of an aged couple, he was
early left an orphan; he took to the
wilderness for contemplation and
meditation; a rugged existance that
secluded him from humanity a great
deal, but he kept' himself informed
from traveling caravans of the move
ments cf the world. Being filled by
the Holy Spirit,' he steps boldly out
to fulfill hi3 mission. It was a great
success. So will every servant of God
be successful, if he follows, the spir
it's leading.
Ill The Herald Baptising Christ.
The time has ecmq.'for Jesus to enter
upon his public ministry. He is in
troduced and publicly installed by
John and the manifestation of God's
presence. In word and deed. No soon
er is the rite of baptism performed,
and Jesus had fulfilled the demands
cf God's law stepped Into man's
place. He became the representative
cf the human race. He is now dedi
cated for hi3 vcrk. The Holy Spirit
descended upon him, and the father's
voice is heard giving testimony that
he is well pleased with his Son.
Only three times is the Father's
voice heard during Jesus' life at his
baptism; at the transfiguration, and
In the last week when the Greeks
came to him In the temple. In this
event, the three persons of the Holy
Trinity unite Father, Son and Holy
Spirit. The doctrine of the Trinity is
herewith established. Luke (Chap.
3:21) tells us that Jesus was earnest
ly praying, while John was baptising
him. If the sinless Son of Gcd' found
it necessary to pray, how much more
his followers!
The sweetest and the most blessed
moments in a Christian's life are the
cnes spent in prayer.
Thy wings shall my petition
bear
Sweet hour of .prayer; Sweet hour
of prayer;
To him whose truth .and faith
fulness -
Engage the waiting soul to
bless! '
And since he bids me seek-his
face; :
Believe his word and trust his
grace
I cast on him my every .: j
canapr?-- -t.-., .
And wait for thee, sweet hour .
of prayer! .

Coztv Clerk Bemoans Loss of Rev

Blames Depression.
Reno. The business of making
the unhappily wed single again and
happy again fell off so markedly dur
ing 1932 that Reno wondered if,
after all, there might not be some
truth in the old saw about two being
able to live cheaper than one. At
least that was the only conclusion
Reno attorneys cculd reach as they
fought an explanation of why tome
1,500 fewer couples aired their do
mestic woes in district court here this
year than did during the previous
twelve months.

lars and cents local barristers did

cluded, "that they could better af
ford to remain unhappily married
than to be divorced. It may have
worked out all right for them, hut to
us it was a pain in the neck."
. "Pain in the neck is right," echoed
County Clerk E. II. Eeemer, who
has the records to prove it. Prom
Jan. 1 thru Dec. 23 his books showed
that only 3,214 divorce complaints
were filed here, whereas during 1931
exactly 4,754 couples asked the judge
to sever the tie that binds. To Wa
shoe county alone this meant a drop
of approximately $40,000 in filing
fee3.

City Council
Discusses Matter
of Fire Truck
Committee to Investigate Cost of
New Chassis to Repair Damage
Done Two Heeks Ago.
From Wenedy' railr
The truck of the local fire depart
ment, which was damaged some two
weeka'ago while returning from the
Murray school fire, was the subject
of the attention of the city council
fcr the greater part of the time last
evening.
W. J I. PuIh, president of the coun
cil, preJd'd, Mayor Sattler being on
Ukj nick lit with flu.
Th meeting also had present the
committo from tho Rotary club.
Judge A. H. Duxbury and Frank A.
Cloldt, an wtll as Councilman Davis.
A lartr number of the firemen were
alxo present to attend the Ks;ion.
Chairman Davis of thj fire and
water com mitt. , prw:ntl to the
council the matter of curlng re
ps Ir of the trurk. It neces
p.ar7 now to have ot th Mc-
Maken trucks at the city hall to haul
tho hose and oth?r equipment if
needed. Mr. Davis Ktated that the
committee had Investigated the mat
ter of having the present engine re
paired, securing a new engine or se
curing an entire new chassis. Tho
cost of repair would be $305 as far
as could be estimated, a rebuilt en
gine would tof.t from $350 to $375
while an entirely new engine would
reach $462.50. A3 these figures were
so high that the question of a new
chassis also was discussed. The in
stalling of a new engine would make
much alteration of the present
chassi3 necessary.
Councilman Johnson moved that
the fire and water committee secure
the prices of reveral makes of chassis
for the present fire truck body and
which they could present at the next
meeting. This motion was later
adopted by the council.
Chief O. Sandin of the fire depart
ment was present and asked for his
views of the matter stated that the
present chassis of the truck was not '
in the best of shape and he believed
it test that a new one be purchased,
as the ' present one v6.uld' 'require
much repair. Dr. Sandin 'alsb urgea"
that the-: city . nre'.4rutk--fre -ttipped'.-with
a pumper that would aid in
fighting fires in sections where the'-.-water
pressure wa3 low.---.
The finance committee ot thie coun- T
cil presented a resolution as - to the
transferring of amounts from the
general fund to Interest funds to
care for different items that were due
and whose funds did not carry suf
ficient amounts to cover them.
Messers Duxbury and Cloidt were
called upon and expressed their
pleasure at being present and- inter
ested in the manner in which the
council was working to save the city
all expense possible in the adminis
tration of the city affairs.
