The first commandment bids us to worship Gcd exclusively; the second bids us to worship himt spiritually. But what does it mean to worship; or what is worship? It is the act or feelins of adoration or homage; the paying: of religious reverence as in prayer; respect or honor towards a superior as God. As we deal with the Israelites, we should remember that in Egypt they had seen nothing hut idol worship, the old deities with their bestial emblems and of the new foreign gods of the shepherd dynasty. The tribe3 had brought small port able imagea of the Egyptian dicties into the wilderness amd there were secretly paying Jhem honor, accord ing to the implications in Ezek. 20: G-S. So were the Canaanites, who were worshiping Baal and Astarte, Syrian dieties, who were cruel and obscene. This is the reason why God gave this commandment which is prohibitive. Man is spirit from the devinc spirit, therefore the relation ship with the Divine. It is the part of man that has intelligence and is invisible and incorporal. Of the Diety we have the Holy Spirit, the third person in the Godhead, characterized by self consciousness, selfa?tivity and personality, and the absence of ma terial properties; therefore no man can have a proper conception of God's person, and the imagination will produce a distorted picture. In Greek mythology we have some ter rible carricatures of their gods. The visible universe is the creature, and not the creator, hence not o be wor shipped: the creator must be super ior to the creature. But man degenerated after the Fall, drifting farther and farther a way -'from God, as Paul's picture of fallen man is given us in Rom. 1: 18-23, which should be earnestly siudied by teacher and pupil. Man's eternal weal or woe is dependant on the proper conception of God. An astonishing incident is recorded in the second part of the lesson, almost unbelievable, after, the demonstra tion of God's power and glory to these people, which is proof that man is an ungrateful creature. See the backsliding chapter, Jer. 3. Man Is unreliable, not trustwor thy until he is stabilized and ground ed and rooted in love, which isGod. (Eph. 3:17). Mitigating circum stances may have , to temper our; the coming year, they being: Mrs. Ivan, Balfour, president; Eleanor Easter, corresponding secretary; Mrs. Audra Stroemer, financial secretary; Mrs. Irene Todd, treasurer. The next meeting of the county asso ciation will be held in Union at the homeof Mrs. Minnie Rihn on October 27th. Orchestra Enjoys Picnic. The Union orchestra which has provided much musts for many pur poses, enjoyed a picnic at Louisville last Sunday, where they ate their dinner under the shade of some stately trees.

Milo Jay, Byron Stillweil, Al bert Mason, wife and daughter, Miss Mildred Burlee, Ralph Mansfield and wife, Fred Tigner and wife. Visited in Union Sunday. Mrs. Jennie Frans was hostess to a merry party of friends and rel atives last Sunday, Oct. 2nd, at her home in Union. Guests were "r. and Mrs. D. Ray Frans and son Jim mie.

Mrs. Waukup is a sister of Mrs. Jenni; Frans. All enjoyed the day and a very fine din ner. , Had Wonderful Floats. The Sciota school, taught by Miss Olive Horning, was represented at the county fair by a very unique float whose slogan was "Stars and Stripes Forever," carrying this idea in the construction of the float and teachings. The pupils and patrons of this school as well as the teacher were interested in the making and decoration of the float. Again this school and their teacher made a float for the King Korn Karnival which was worthy'of 'much note. Lesson Study! By L. Neitzel, Murdock, Neb. judgment of Israel; "they' had only been ' liberated ' less 'fhah two years from a heathen country, where they li2d been identified with idol wor ship. But people in pur day arc do ing the same thing. God is not worshipped by the masses, our empty churches are proof of this. We re frain from enumerating . the idols cur nation worships." God is not sitting idly by! The calamities that are occuring daily are evidences of his displeasure. Man should take warning. "O! Worship the King!" We thank, .God, who, in the beautiful story of the Samaritan woman at Jacob's well, thought our Lord has given us a clear picture of how to worship our . God. Man had not, even at that late date realized the true character of God. Jesus knew God, he was his Father, and could reveal to man the true nature of him. And, how sim ple it is to serve God acceptably, that a woman, steeped in sin, hav ing lived a life that would brand her as an outcast, having not given thought or time to serve God, could understand that precious truth, and began to believe and practice the the teaching, and became a success ful missionary in the home field. How grateful man-should be that God is not localized.. What hardship would men have to endure to worship God, if they could only do sq in a given space. Being- Spirit, he is not bound to place. Chas. II. Gabriel knew this by a blessed experience, and expressed it mqst beautifully in the ' hymn he left ins, when he sings: "Just when I need Him, Jesus is near; ' ;' ' Just when I falter, just when I fear; Ready to help me, .ready . to .' cheer Just when I neqd Him most." Bacause God is spirit,- men have prayed under all conditions and places, and God has-heard and an swered. Teachers may-ask questions on the foregoing Jonah.in the fish; Jeremiah in a cistern; Peter in the boat; Paul and Sil.as in ; Jail, etc. The worshipper pours his soul out to God. Think of Hannah. How. and in what attitude -must the worship per appear before God? Only "He that hath clean hands and a pure Tieart; who hath hot 'lifted up his coul into vanity nor sworn deceipt fully; He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, , and , righteousness from the God of his salvation. (See Ps. 2 4:3, 4). "" " v : " Weeping Water Earl Oldham with his truck was over to Cook in Gage county where he went for a load of oats for a patron here. Rev.
