never had to tap dance.

"Isaiah Contrasts False and
True Worship"
Isaiah 1:10-20.
This prophet should not need an
introduction, as he is probably the
best known of all prophets. The time
.of hi3 labors extend from the reign
of Uzziah(755 B. C.) to the end
Ilezckiah's death (670 B. C). His
father's name was Amos (not the
prophet). He was married and had
two sons. His field of operation was
in the Kingdom of Juda; Jerusalem
was his home. The style cf his writ
ing was at once elegant and sublime,
forcible and ornamental; he unites
dignity with variety; in his language
is uncommon beauty and energy. His
writing is best known by its clear
ness with which he predicts and por
trays the life of Jesus Christ.
The whole Gospel is contained in
Lis book of 66 chapters.
A note on prophesy. The mind of
God was conveyed to the prophets in
various ways. In dreams, in visions,
or by a:i influence upon the mind of
which the subjects were conscious,
they received the devine inspiration
end by a strong internal impulse
were constrained to deliver their mes
sage. The lessen should cover the
whole chapter.
The opening words of the message
v.e have heard before, in Moses vale
dictory. (Deut. 4:26). He calls heav
en r.nd earth as witnesses, when Is
rael stood cn the border of the prom
ised land, regarding the might and
power by which God had brought
them to the borders of their inheri
tagc. The complaint then as now is
the unfaithfulness cf his people. . . .
"Nourished and brought up children,
and they have rebelled against me."
. . . How oft it is that case today, that
children turn against their parents,
who spared neither time nor money,
and often with great sacrifice, endeav
ored to give them the best they could
afford, to give them a good start in
life, end how shamefully do they re
pay that love and devotion with which
they were reared.
A comparison is here drawn from
the ox and ass, considered the most
stupid and dumbest of all creatures
that serve man. They, by instinct,
know their master and are guided by
liis voice but man, "made in the
image of God" (Gen. 1:26) will deny
his benefactor and will not render the
obedient service that the ox r.nd ass
willingly render for a "full crib." In
deed a sad eomentary cn the intelli
gence of a rational being. God's com
plaint is justiiied. The description of
man's depravity (verses 5 and 6) is
well borne out by the facts as we eee
)nan acting. The catalog of men's
crimes is growing constantly new
means and methods are hatched out
in the fertile brain cf shrewd men to
perpetrate crimes unknown to former
generations cunning and deceipt are
Rents are to go higher. So is the
cost of food. A determined optimism
may at least foresee more work for
the bill collector.
: ;o:
If history is right, King Solomon
wasn't much of a traveler. How could
he travel if he had to kiss seven hun
dred wives good-by?
:o: ;
Perh?ps you hadn't noticed, but
"the other senator from Idaho" gain
ed some prominence recently by be
ing the only member of the upper
houso to remain in Washington that
week-end.
:o:
The world series is beginning to
look interesting. Bill Terry and
Mickey Cochrane appear to be about
evenly matched in idiosyncrasies, and
while Bill's pitchers are all first
class, Mickey has come very doughty
hitters.
:o:
It turns out that all the Wash
ington speculation on what Hoover
meant by his article in defense ot
constitutional liberty was needless.
Congresswoman Kathryn O'Lougblin
McCarthy of Kansas saw through the
Hoover game at a glance. She says
he is a member of the Liberty League
and the smear gang.
Lesson Study!
By L. Neitzel, Murdock. Neb.
running rampant in the land a proof
that man is growing worse as he gets
further and further away from God.
Crime is even being carried on by
those who make a pretense of being
God-fearing, upright people. They go
to church, their . names are on the
record, they pay to uphold the church,
using that as a cloak to carry on
their nefarious work. The curse that
destroyed Scdom and Gomorah will
be their reward. This false worship
iz an abomination before God; all
this pretense is nothing short of a
farce people don't fool God with
outward demeanor when inner actions
belie their whole being.
But God will not give man up
he will go to the utmost ends to gain
men's attention, to stop them in their
mad career, as they hasten on to de
struction. O! What a wonderful, com
pasicnate Father we have, who has
"no pleasure at all that the wicked
should die" (Ezekial 18:23) but
comes to such, pleading "Why will
ye die?"
"Wash you, make you clean" could
not be misunderstood by Israelites.
They would know that it was a re
quirement. This is man's part in
convertion a changed life. Sam
Jones' trite saying was: "Quit your
meanness." That is the first step
"put away your evil doings from be
fore mine eyes; cease to do evil." No
man can be saved in his sins but
"from his sins." (Matt. 1:21). As
man turns away from the old life and
"learns to do veil'.' he has started
on the King's highway; he is travel
ing towards the light; he will show
ty his act.3 that he is in earnest of
being obedient to God.
He get3 new the assistance of the
Almighty, who invites him into His
council and says: "Come now, let us
reascn together." What mere could
a kind, loving savior do than to have
a heart-to-heart talk with a rebellious
sinner? Why ere men so afraid to
submit their case to a just God?. He
expects nothing that would conflict
with an honorable, pure, clean life;
that would lift him higher in the
estimation of his fellowmen, make
him a more useful citizen, and above
all his soul would be purged from all
the filth cf a god!es3, wicked life, no
matter how steeped in tin as scarlet
or crimson "there is power, power,
wonder-wcrking power in the blood
cf the Lamb."
The God of eternal truth has said
it!.. A great promise is yet added: "If
ye be willing and obedient, ye 6hall
eat the good of the land." What more
could man want! No want, no scar
city, an abundance of every good
thing will God supply.
Why should man not give up his
lifo of sin, when God gives so much
in exchange for his filthy rags and a
sordid life? It is a reasonable ser
vice we would render God.

their son Alda of east of Union were

As we moved about among the
happy throng of fair visitors we were
impressed with the number of people
who mentioned the fact with a good
deal of sadness of the passing of the
lr.te James M. Robertson, who was
so well acquainted with so large a
number of peoplo over the county.
All were saddened by the calling cf
tliis excellent citizen.

exhibit and sure there were a small
army of those and what a host of
things there are to see and enjoy
In every department, fancy work,
machinery, live stock and as well
things which are grown to eat oc
cupying much space.
Another feature which the first
day brought out was the array of

their interests and Col. Rex Young

same office and is hustling for the
place; Miss Alpha Peterson and Miss

ANSWERS QUESTIONS
L. Neitzel, of Murdock, accompani
ed by his friend and fellow-townsman,
G. Baur, were in Plattsmouth Sunday,
September 2nd, at which time Mr.
Neitzel, who cdit3 the Sunday school
lesson appearing weekly in the Jour
nal, acted as teacher at the Masonic
Home Bible school and they remain
ed for the afternoon concert given by
the Iowa State Institution band at
the Home, which they enjoyed as did
the residents there and many others
who gathered cn the Heme grounds
to hear this splendid 30-piece band.
During the course of his teaching
of the Bible class, Mr. Neitzel was
asked three questions regarding the
Bible and paszag3s contained therein,
to which he has prepared answers, as
follows:
Question No. 1 Christ being the
bridegroom, who is the bride?
Answer Jesus being the bride
groom, the church is the bride, as the
following scripture passages clearly
indicate: Ps. 45:0, 13-15; Eph. 5:25,
3:29.
Question No. 2 What do you be
lieve is the position of the Church of
Christ since the crucifiction of Jesus,
in the Kingdom of God at his second
coming?
Answer The Church of Christ
dates from Penteco-U. The church is
designated as the church "militant"
and the church "triumphant." The
first is the church in the world; the
second is the glorified host of the re
deemed that have "overcome." (Rev.
3:21). It is this the "triumphant"
church that will reign with Christ
at his second coming. In Rev. 5:10,
we read: "And thou hast madt us i
unto God kings and priests; and we
shall reign on the earth." And in Rev.
20:4-6. we find the souls described
that "lived and reigned with Christ
a thousand years." They were resur
rected a thousand years before the
general rosiirrc t Ion. This Is the first
resurrection. The church triumphant
Is co-nilrr with Christ ut hi .second
coming.
(Juc-;tli:ii No. .'! -Where will Israel
be wltpn tttp Klnu lm t et up o;
earth what I'lm'p h.: lisel there?
Answer Israel will not le there a
a nation; they limp tej.vU.I Clu M
and am matt pmI all irv th eaith.
It there W Israelite Ihry "111 be
there an Imltt (dual . cx.t .y e
gruce ur God tlH'-ua!i Hif tneHt of
Jesus Christ. The or. let K "Hollevi
cn the Lord. Jeron t tnUi, n, thou
shalt be savd," (Act li::ith At the
second coming of ChrlM thpie Is no
mention made of nations or clutnh
or creed. Again reud Kpv. 2;4 to
make this clear. At th fcrneral
resurrection "at tho l.isl trump" (I
Cor. 15:52) the dead will be raNed
incorruptible. But hope Is hold out
that the Jews will be naved (not as u
nation). See Jer. !:H and Romans
11:26. The" prophecy In Jciomluh is
good forever, for It points to ai Deliv
erer by Isaiah. (Chapter 59:20) "and
the Redeemer shall come out of Zloix
and unto them that turn from trans
gression in Jacob, ralth the Lord."
It's our guess that about the only
one who doesn't care how soon frost
comes Is the fellow with tho hay
feer.
