It is remarkable how little we know of those old heroes, their an cestry, youth, faith and deeds. Elijah appears like a meteor, flashes over the ljorizon and disappears in a fl:.sh of glory. Elisha is another hero of faith, and how little we know of his family and youth. Here is a little sketch of his life: He is the son of Shaphat of Abel mchola. In his youth he was an at tendant of Elijah and became his successor as a prophet in Israel. His tall came to him in 901 B. C, four years before Ahab died (S97 B. C). He held the office of prophet for 55 years, under six kings of Israel. The incidents of his life are recorded in I and II Kings. How many people took part in this lesson? (1) A Jewish maid; (2) Naamans wife; (3) Naaman; (4) the king of Syria, Beuhadad; (5) the kin;; of Israel, Joram, and (6) Elisha. The place is Samaria and tire River Jordan. The little Jewish girl, taken in a raid by the Syrians, and now a slave in the home of Naa man, knew the God of Israel and his prophet, also his power to heal leprosy. Her sympathies are for the suffering Naaman. In a confidant moment, she tells her mistress what Bhe confidently believes. No one doubts her word. We are astonished that upon h.r word a great move ment is started. The king writes a letter of introduction to the king of Israel, Naaman takes $68,000 in gold and $18,000 in silver and ten costly robes, with a great escort of men and chariots to go to Samaria. Ben hadad instead of addressing his let ter to Elisha, addresses it to the king of Israel, who took it as a chal lenge to war, which stirred the city with great concern. The tumult leached the piophet Elisha, who hap pened to be in his house at this time, and who, hearing about the king be ing greatly disturbed about the let ter, sent a servant to the king with a request to send Naanan to him. The king wa3 surely relieved of get ting' rid of Naaman, and out of a difficult situation. Naaman goes to Elisha's house and stops at the door. He was a great man in his own coun try and expected to be treated as such by Eliiha. who did not think it worth-while to go and meet him, but knowing his errant, sent a mes senger and gave the general orders. Now Naaman wa3 not used to taking orders but rather to give' them.

Sr., a resident ben. for a great many years, came down from Havelock Sunday to enjoy a visit here at the home of his daugh ter, Mrs. Henry Kaufrnann and fam ily and to meet with the old tine friends. Mr. Warga has just recent ly returned from a trip to the cast. From Tuesday's Dally Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Wescott 01 Lincoln, were here Sunday to visit at the home of their parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. II. Wescott and Mrs. John L. Tidball. Lesson Study! By L. Neitzel, Murdock, Neb. seven, times in the muddy Jordan, vhen there were much better rivers ( Abana-Pharphar) and clear moun tain streams in Syria proved too ranch for this proud general. He was greatly disappointed at the conduct oi the prophet. (See verse 11). And so in anger iie turns to go home taking his disease with him. (How could he as a leper remain in the army? The Syrians did not treat leprosy like the Israelites. See Lev. 1?). His servants, having great faith in the power of this prophet, after much difficulty persuaded Naaman to tiy this" simple procedure. Being a a reasonable man, he finally does a3 he is told and is healed. This is the story what of the ap plication! It is this: Leprosy has all the symptoms of sin. Sin, if not eliminated cleansed pardoned brings sure death. As leprosy isan curable, no icmedy is yet found by man, so is sin uncurable by man. In despair cries Jeremiah: "Is there no balm in Giliad? Is there no physi cian there? Why then is not the health of the daughter of my peo ple recovered?" (Jer. 8:22). Thank God, there is a physician. (Ex. 15: 26) And there is a fountain filled with blood, "the blood of Jesus Christ, his son cleanseth us from all sin." (I John 1:7). As Naaman had to overcome his pride and submit to God's way, so n.'ttst every man come as supliant! Net my will, but thy will be done. Man cannot prescribe the method how God shall convert him; God has made it plain: Enter ye in at the straight gate, enter by' the door, dime as a child, believe his word. Naaman had to exercise faith, which he did; not one dip in the Jordan, lut seven times and then the cure i3 complete! So does God save to the uttermost. Naaman is convert ed; that wa3 Elisha's aim. It was rot easy for a proud man to take orders and wash in a muddy stream but see what happened and be hold the grateful man! God is no rrspector of persons all have sin ned; the leprosy of sin is the same today as it always was. There is only one remedy which God has pro vided. It has cost a great price, but it i3 a sure-cure untold millions have testified to the power that is In I he blood. The fountain still flows, and sinners who plunge beneath that flood lose all their guilty stains." (See Zach 13:1; Heb. 10:22; lea. 55:1; John 7:37-38). Here is demonstrated the title of the lesson, "Elisha: A Life of Help fulness." Naaman was helped Into tha kingdom.

' The third battalion of the 134th infantry, Nebraska national guard, were given. the experience of real field hardships in their visit to the U. S. rifle range north of this city, where they arrived Monday after noon. The battalion comprises companies from Omaha and Lincoln and the ma chine gun company from Sevjird. The troops had planned to make camp for the night in pup tents on the range but the rain storm thnt came up early in the evening and continued all night made theii plight very uncomfortable and a large part of the men sought shelter in the barracks that were built there for the transient camp some twe years ago. The supplies needed to feed the soldiers failed to arrive in time for the morning meal which was limit ed to a very scanty repast and made necessary prompt action by the com p'any officers in charge of the troors. A large section of the Lincoln com pany with their officer brought ma chine gun carts down from the range camp and secured additional supplier for the stay at the range. The third battalion will remain at the camp until the new convoy of troops ar rive to relieve them. This is the flret time that the na tional guard has been able to have range work since 1936 when the Ashland range was condemned and this year the permission of the IT. S. war department was obtained to use the Plattsmouth range for target work for the infantry and nachine gun units. The troops are brought from the Ashland camp and which gives th... quartermaster detachment much needed experience in transporting troops and providing for the supply to the troops in the field.
