Three things, ho declared, were agreed upon In organizing the Legion. They were: That the Legion should be a purely service organization with nh-oliitely no distinction of rank between gen eral and private, admiral and gob. That the Legion must be non partisan nnd must concern Itself with policies, not politics. That there must be no distinction drawn between branches of service, between those who served overseas and those who waited nt home. "Tho Amerlcnn Legion Is going to bo the biggest stabilizing Influence In America, In these disturbed times," he snld. Ho clteii a letter from Ills fa ther, written In 1018, In which the for mer president predicted that the dan ger In this country lay In the tendency to swing from extreme to extreme from radicalism to reaction and vice versr..

INTLTl.MKDIATi: AND SKNMOlt TOPIC Jesus Overcoming Temptation. YOtTNO 1'KOI'LK AND ADULT TOI'IO Victory Over Appetite, Pride and Am bition 1. The Baptism of Jeous (,'l:i:i-17). While the forerunner was discharg ing his ollice, the King emerged from Ids .seclusion nt Nazareth and de manded baptism nt John'?: hands. The incongruity of tills with the purpose of baptism brought from John a tiro test, but Jesus' explanation was satis factory, so John baptized him. Touch ing Christ's baptism, note: 1 Its significance. (I) Negntlxely. (a) It did not mean his own obedi ence to the coinniiindmeni of Cod, be cause his entire life leid been lived entirely within the will or Cod. Not n moment In his entire life hut what was lived entirely In accordance with the Father's will, (b) Not because he had sin, for he was absolutely slides-, harmless, undetlled, cepnrato from "sinners. Tills separation was so com plete that even the devil could llnd no occasion ngnlnst him (John 14:110). (2) Positively. Its slgnilleance is found In harmony with the central purpose of his coming Into the world, which was to secure for Ids people salvation through death, burial and lesunectlon. 2. Approval from the opened heavens (vv. 10, 17). Immediately following bis consecration -to his work, tins heavens were opened nnd the Spirit came and abode upon him, fol lowed by words of approval from the Father. These all were essential for the work upon which Christ now en tered revolution (heavens opened), Inspiration (dove abode upon him), nnd approvul (words from the Fa ther). II. The Temptation of Jecus (1 ti ll). This temptation was the opening battle of the dreadful conflict between Christ and Satan. In this struggle, note: 1. The combatants. (1) Jesus Christ, the Divine Man. now entering upon his mediatorial work. He went (Imme diately from the plate of anointing and heavenly recognition as the Son of God to meet the arch-enemy of the race. (2) The devil. He was a real person tilled with cunning nnd malice. 2. The battle ground the Wilder ness of Juden. The llrst man was tempted In a garden with the most pleasant surroundings and failed; the second uinn was tempted in n hare wilderness nnd gloriously triumphed. n. The method of attack. Since as our Redeemer Christ sustains a three fold relationship, Son of Man, Son of Cod and as Messiah, each one was made a ground of attack. (1) As Son of Mf n. Tills wus.li test of the reality of his humanity to demonstrate as to whether the humanity which lie ob tained through the Virgin birth was real. The appeal was made to the Instinct of hunger. Hunger Is nat ural and sinless. Having been forty days aud nights without food, as n normal mnn, Christ he.d a crcvlnft" ap petite. While the appetite was not sinful, to have satisfied It In n wrong way would have been sin. (2) Son of Cod. It was to test as to whether tills personality which had taken upon Itself humanity, was divine. The devil quoted from u Messianic Psalm to get him to presume upon Cod's care. Cod does care for Ills own, but to neglect common precaution to do the uncalled for thing Just to put Cod's promise to a test Is to sin and fall. (,T) As Messiah. Christ's mis sion as Messiah was to recover this world from the ''evil. Now the devil offers to surrender to him on tlio sim ple condition thnt he adopt his method, thus obviating tlio necessity of the cross. The kingdoms were really Christ's, and ho knew that they would ultimately become bis. The Inducement was to get Immediate pos session without the sufferings of the cross. I. The defense the Word of (lod. Christ met the enemy each time and repulsed him with "It is written." Knch tlmo he quoted from Deuter onomy, the book which the higher critics would discredit as reliable. ft. The Issue the enemy Is com pletely routed. Guided by Religion. A nntlon thnt Is guided by Its re ligion, that Is Arm In its ancient faith, that looks beyond mntorlal exacti tudes, may well hope to survive. Mockery of religion, skepticism of faith and scorn of beliefs In what could not bo proved havo brought more than one nation to destruction. Newark Kvenlng News. Good Nature.
