I. The Stupidity of Selfishness, (vv. 80-32). Jesus with his disciples Is on his way to Capernaum for the last time. Ho Is soon to leave for Jerusa lem, whero he is to die on the cruel cross for tho world's sins. He still seeks tho wny of retirement In order to be alone with his disciples, his ob ject being to lead them Into the appre hension of the meaning of the cross. The teaching which was Interrupted at Caeserea by Peter's rebuke Is now re sumed, and with dclliiltencss ho de clares the future event as already present. 1. "The Son of Man Is delivered Into tho hands of men." 2. "They shnll kill him." 8. "He shall rise tho third day." While pressing upon them continu ously the fact und necessity of tho cross, ho never failed to show them tho bright side his triumphant vic tory over death In tho resurrection. The hearts of the disciples were so steeped In selfishness that they fulled to understand his teachings. If the disciples hud more definitely attended to his teaching concerning the cross, they would have been better prepared for the hour of temptation which was so soon to overtake them. II. The Wrangling of Selfishness. (vv. !l.'$-:57). 1. The searching question (v. !!.'!). The omniscient Christ knew the se crets of their hearts. The fuct that the disciples were wrungllng nbout of llclul position while the Lord was fac ing humiliation and death for them and the whole world, shows how com pletely the Lord was alono In his sor row. 1. The silent disciples (v. 34). They were nsl mined In his presence, because tho selllblmess of their hearts was revealed. To realize the presence of the Lord would shame us of much of our M'lllshncsM. 3. The stinging rebuke (vv. 71). "If any man deslro to bo first, the same shall ho Inst of all, and servant of nil." The greatest among men nre those who are willing to take the low est place and serve others. This truth ho enforced In a concrete way by plac ing a child In their midst. 'This child was an Illustration of dependence and Ignorance. liy example and word he shows that true greatness Is expressed by willingness to aid the weak, to In struct Hie Ignorant and to serve those In need. All such render service not merely to those In need, but unto. Christ und Und. True greatness, there fore, consists not In sclfseeklng, but rendering cheerful service to the needy In the name of Christ. III. The Intolerance of Selfishness (vv. 38-41). 1. John's guilty conscience (v. ,5S). In the light of the teaching of Jesus, John was u little disturbed over having "forbid" a worker for Christ who did not follow after him. Doubtless this Intolerance was In part due to Jealousy for Christ, but also it Hellish ambition. Many times Christians mistake bigotry for zeal for Christ. 2. Whom to tolerate (vv. 3!M1). (1) Those who nro casting out devils (v. 30). We should really satisfy our selves that supernatural works are be ing done. Are demons being cast out? However, this Is not final, ns there Is a "supernatural work not of Cod. (2) Those who are not doing this work In Christ's name (v. 41). Any worker going forth In the name of Christ, and for the glory of Christ, hhnuld bo given Uodspeed. If he Is doing a good work, even though not In your way, or If not u member of your church or school, "Forbid hlrn not." IV. The Awful Issue of Selfishness. (vv. 42-fiO). Selfishness results In ruin to others (v. 42), ntul also to the Individual (vv. I 43, 45 and 47). In cither ense tho Is sue Is eternal torment In hell. Selfish , ness Is opposed to God, and thnt which Is opposed to fiod must bo eternally separated from him. Self-renunciation should be so complete that we should He willing to abandon the most necessary and lawful things In life hands, feet and eyes when they he come occasions for stumbling either to ourselves or to othecs. Need of Influence. "Every one of us needs Influence and some Impulse outside of ourselves to compel us to strive for our Ideals. Tho best Impulse that enn uplift tho life Is the friendship of Jesus. He says: 'Ye are as friends If ye do what soever I command ygti.' " God's Presence. Did It ever occur to you that the Blgns of dud's presence are granted to the fanner more than any other man? Look around your homo and fields und see. WHAT I I I I I I I I I II I l -v War Savings and Thrift Stamps. During the month of February the receipts coming Into the treasury de partment through the sale of War Sav ings and Thrift stamps totaled $11, 000,000. It Is reported that they aver age now about $2,000,000 a day. He turns from the same source In lCnglatid were $37,000,000. The War Havings and Thrift stomps give everyone a chance to be "In" on the great busi ness of winning the war. They ore a fine Investment ntul within the reach of everyone. Congress bet 2,000,000, 000 as the amount to bu raised by this mentis for the year. If this amount Is reached It will cover the entire cost of the government's shipbuilding program for thu year. It bus now from this source enough revenue dally to build 10,000 tons of shipping and altogether has received to date funds for building 420,000 tons, or SI ships of (5,000 tons ench. Our strength In this war has not made Itself felt yet as it will be felt. Ureat reserves of It will be forthcom ing. We have hardly felt the pinch of the war yet. In the War Savings and Thrift stamps we have mi opportu nity to all take a hand In building ships, and they must be built. He sides this the Thrift stamps are edu cating people, especially young peo ple and children, to save and to use money for Investment Instead FOR SLENDER LITTLE GIRLS For the occasions that require her to dress-up a bit there are pretty , frocks of crepe georgette and voile that will make the little girl look her best this summer. From her eighth to her fourteenth or fifteenth year she Is apt to be a very slim, long limbed little person with a good many angles that are prominent and need to be well considered when it conies to choosing her clothes. Since there are designers ' who specialize In clothes for children the needs of the thin llt- I tic girl and the needs of the fat little girl have been given expert attention nnd the problem of distraught mothers solved for hem.

LIZARDS AID SUGAR GROWERS Small Reptiles Most Important Help In tho Destruction of Parasites In West Indlce. Lizard farming ami fungi! cultiva tion aro menus adopted In the West Indies to protect tho sugar Industry. It bus been discovered that the frog hopper, so-called on account of Its great leaping powers, Is the greatest pest of tho sugar cane, and that It mul tiplies by thousands on slnglu plants, sucking tho sap from roots and leaves, In the lusl three or four years two remedies have been developed. F. W. I'rlch, a West Indian entomologist, 1ms demonstrated thnt lizards devour great Miiiintllles of tln Immature hoppers; and J. It. Hotirer, a United Stntos my cologist, has shown that spores of the fungus known as "green iiiusourdlno" nro peculiarly fatal to the adults. As part of the work to save the eane, wnr lias been begun In Trlnhlad, where the Investigation has been made, against the rapacious mongoos, which has made lizards scarce. In addition, hun dreds of lizards are collected lu a pro tective enclosure, and are encouraged to multiply under favoring eoiidlllons of Mind batiks for burrows, with an abundance of fond and water. The fungus Is grown In test-tube cabinets, which produce spores that nre dusted over the cane Ileitis by special dis tributing machines. Juice of Lemons!
