" Religion is any system of faith and worship. Hut we would confine it to an "Essential part or a prac tical test of the spiritual life." (See James 1:27). This definition con forms to our Lord's teaching and practice. This will be a rather hard lesson to teach, because of the many isms and chisms and corruptions of the word of Cod, and the many cere monies and liturgies that have crept into the church, obscuring the real purpose of our holy religion, which is to glorify God and edify man prepare him for his eternal destina tion. Mark, writing to the Romans, explains the Jewish customs, so they may understand Jesus' teaching that is what he did in this lesson. Jesus admonition was: "We must live (as Christians) according to the law of Cod, regardless of whatever me world says and whatever the world thinks, but we must be care ful to KNOW what this law says." Now we find the local Pharisees and a group of Scribes from Jerusa lem determined to find some fault in Christ's teaching or conduct. As they can find nothing on Jesus, they pick on his disciples. They must be like their Master and teacher. The Pharisees were the strictest observers of the Jewish law. Tp them we are indebted for the keep ing of the text of the scriptures delivered to Moses, correct in every detail, and delivering of the same to posterity. The Scribes were the teachers and interpreters of the law as well as copyists of the scriptures (there was no printing in those days). So, we see the .Pharisees who lived at Capernaum and the Scribes from Jerusalem at the meet ing; the purpose of the presence of tnese parties was to discredit Jesus with the people. This was a gathering of the op ponents of. Jesus, not his friends. And they tried to make him out to be a lawbreaker, since his teachings came oft in collision with the many added rules to the law. The rapid growth of the work and the preach ing mission of the twelve increased their alarm. These enemies thought they had a case against Jesus when they told him that some of his disciples had eaten and had not washed their hands as all Jews did (the law did not require that, it was simply a tradition set up by the elders given the semblance of law). This gave Jesus the occasion to deliver to them a well earned rebuke and correct some wrong ideas of religion. Quoting the scriptures, which they of the lips. This is a matter much LINCOLN, March 21 (UP) Gov ernor Cochran announced today that he had received a "go ahead" signal from the federal government to pro ceed with Nebraska's road building program Tor the fiscal year beginning July 1 as originally planned. The governor was informed by Sec retary of Agriculture Wallace that President Roosevelt had withdrawn his objections to the 1930 highway allotments. i ne president now feels that you should not be asked to further delay submission of road building projects and accordingly I suggest that such projects be now submitted in the or der of their priority," Secretary Wal lace said. State Engineer A. C. Tiliey said Nebraska projects listed in the 193S program which have been held in abeyance pending word from Wash ington will be forwarded to the fed eral bureau of roads and bridges Approximately $4,000,000 in federal funds will be available to Nebraska this year. Tilley said release of federal funds, among other things will permit con struction this year of a Burlington underpass on highway SI in York and hard surfacing of a 15-nile stretch on highways No. 2 and 34 between Waco and Seward and high way No. 2 between Syracuse and Ne braska City. When work on these gaps is com pleted, the two roads will be hard surfaced as far west as Grand Island. TEACHER STEALS CHICKENS By L. Neitzel, Murdock, Neb. overlooked by preachers, teachers and members of our churches and Sunday schools. It is not a matter of regular church attendance, nor taking part in public service, nor at tending all the prayer meetings, or held to be the word of God (Isa. 29: 13), Jesus emphasized in no uncer tain language that true religion is the attitude of the heart and not contributing to the budget. Men may do all these things, render lip service and say: "Lord, Lord!" Jesus says: 'Not every one that saith unto me 'Lord, Lord' shall en-1 ter into the kingdom of heaven; butl MARIAN, Kas., March 22 (UP) Albert Ewart, 2S, who was until this week director of athletics and teach er of history at the Junior High school, today was out working on the roads among the county prisoners, serving a six months' sentence for stealing chickens. His arrest and conviction left everybody in the county amazed ex cept Fred Graham who had suspect ed the teacher for some time. ' In addition to his teaching, coach ing and chicken stealing, Ewart also instructed a Sunday school class at the Evangelical church and traveled over the county selling insurance. He was "well thought of." The sheriff caught him in the act carrying off 12 of Jake Suterman's chickens, leg bands and all. Ewar CAPETOWN (UP) If the barman in a Capetown hotel peers intently at a customer and then consults a'list behind the bar before serving the beer, it is because he does not want to be fined. For in Capetown there is an offi cial "black list," and the names on it comprise all sorts of people, na tive and European. A man on the black list cannot purchase liquor legally. He may not enter a bar or off-license, and must not have liquor in his possession. And it is an of fense to serve such a person. People get on the black list large ly owing to affidavits sworn by rela tives. They are blacklisted for six or twelve months. The ban. how- ever, is only operative in the distnc? where it is issued, so the victim may go to a neighboring town and buy all the liquor he wants.

Thunder Showers Give Encourage ment to Farmers Light Hail Reported at Several Places Over the State High Wind in East Nebraska. By United Press Scattered thunder showers gave fresh encouragement today to Ne braska farmers who, in many in stances are plowing their fields pre paratory to sowing oats and barley. The rain .was accompanied by light hail at several points and by winch? that attained the maximum speed of 40 to 50 miles an hour in eastern Nebraska. The wind blew over the instrument shelter at the Lincoln lirport and broke the thermometer. The showers were heaviest in the eastern counties. Seward received 07 Inchs. Other measurements were .incoln. .22; Omaha, .11; Ashland. ; Valentine, .02; Fairmont and York, .5C; Gresham, .65; Fremont, ; Plattsmouth, .10; Wahoo, .49. Railroad officials reported a half inch at Oakland aijd a trace of hail and scattered showers from Louis ville to Crete. Temperatures dropped sharply from Monday's high reading.

A heartless service is rendered by men who Jesus calls "hypocrites." It means originally "one who acts of another on the stage in some the atrical performance, that is one who pretends to be some one who he is rot." Some one may act the part of a King, but that doesn't make him a King. Once a man is known to be a hypocrite, the power and in fluence of his testimony is forever destroyed. cleanliness is commendable, to make it an essential part of ngion even Jesus would not me: cliickens lor three vears and esti mated that he had stolen and sold to produce dealers about $2,000 worth. REJECT EILL AMENDMENT but re- recog- mze. This is only an outer cere mony whic h anyone can perform and not come near to God, whom he pretends to worship. Jesus cites another case to prove that they are hypocrites, perverting the commandments of God. Moses says in the Law: "Honor thy father and thy mother, and he that speak eth evil of father and mother, let him die the death." But ye say: "If a man say to his father or his moth er that wherewith thou mightest have been profited by me is Corban, that is to say: 'Given to God,' i. e. 'I have vowed it to God, I cannot give it to father and mother I can not support them" tradition will acquit him even though he does not give it to God. It is a lamentablp fart many foreign doctrines are substi tuted for religion, forms and empty husks. The foregoing cases cited by Jesus are given as samples; the whole law us mus rendered valueless without authority.

The vote was to 50. It was the. first of a series of special exemptions which senate leaders op posed on grounds that to adopt one would be to throw open the doors to wholesale exemptions which would de stroy the elfeetiveness of the proposec "strearining of the executive de partment."

HOPE FOR PENSION FADES WASHINGTON, March 22 (UP) Hope for congressional action at this session of congress on an old age pen sion bill disappeared today when the announcement of Chairman Robert L. Dougton, !., N. C, that the house ways and means vommittee had de cided against hearings on the pro posed general welfare act. Dougton members opposed com pliance with the petition of 140 rep resentatives for committee hearings on the measure that succeeded the Townsend old age pension plan. Representative Harry R. Sliep- pard, D., Calif., floor leader of the bill, announced ho will use every effort to obtain sufficient signatures to another petition to discharge the committee and bring the bill to the floor, only lo ot the 21S signa tures have been obtained.

March 22 (UP) Asthma may be caused by great emo tional strain resulting from such difficulties as the loss of loved ones tr failure in the business world and as such may be treated successfully by psychoanalysis, Dr. Franz Alex ander said today. He announced his findings after two years of research and said he would give a detailed report, includ ing methods of treatment, at the June meeting of the American Psy chiatric association at San Francisco. He is director of the Institute for Psychoanalysis. His studies show, he said, that asthma attacks have ceased in a num her of cases after Freudian analysis had rid patients of emotional con flicts. Virtually all patients treated, he added, reported their asthmatic conditions alleviated .by psychoana lysis. "My research indicated ihr.t even in individuals who are definitely allergic, asthma attacks seem to be precipitated by emotional conflict situations of fairly uniform and typ ical character," he said. "Even patients with a marked allergic sensitivity a type we pur posely have chosen for our studies so as to obviate possibility of an al ready marked emotional disturbance -we find the asthma attacks regu Iirly occur in reaction to temptation situations which seem to threaten the patient with the loss of the love of some person upon whom he is emo tionally dependent." Hay fever had not yet shown itself so amenable to the fieatroent, Dr. Alexander said. Dr. Alexander said his treatments did not meet with complete 'success in every case, e pointed out, how ever, that even cases which appeared to be largely pathological were im proved by the psychoanalytical treat ment. v "It is interesting to note," he said, "that while certain inoculations have proved successful in the alleviation and cure of asthma, it is noteworthy that these reliefs sometimes have proved to be only temporary. But thus far there has been no relapse reported in cases cured by pscho- analysis."
