more than 00,000 s'iiool children par

essay follows.
"The American Legion, which Is
composed of men and women who en
Gene Haver, VIcksburg (Miss.) Young
during the war stands for unity, de
mocracy, peace and service to God nnd
our country.
"The slogan of our country Is, 'In
union there is strength,' nnd It is be
cause of this unity, our country Is so
strong, but during the World war, we
found that we had Internal as well
as external enemies. Bolshevism,
communism and anarchy are as real
enemies as any we had to fight over
seas, and tniich harder to conquer.
"The American Legion can do a
wonderful service to the country by
encouraging a spirit of unity and co
operation, and by teaching foreigners
who come Into tho United States how
to live under a republican form of
government, and by helping them to
understand that ours Is a government
of tho people, by the people, for the
people and It shall not perish from
the earth. Many foreigners come from
countries where they have been op
pressed and they do not understand
the word liberty, but think it Is license
to commit crimes. These people must
be taught and the American Legion
can aid In doing this.
"Wo lenrned at the beginning of tiie
World wttr that many of our own citi
zens were uneducated, and that not
nearly enough money wan being spent
for schools. Here Is a great twork for
the American Legion, to see that every
child In the United States has a chance
to be educated. What wo want In our
nation wo must put In our schools, so
the need for schools and well-trained
teachers is very great. Night schools
for the training of men and women
who work during the day help to edu
cate our citizens atid those who wish
to haeonie citizens. The American Le
gion Is on the side of education, and
we believe will make every effort to
see that the schools of the United
States rank first In the world and that
every citizen has the opportunity for
learning.
"During the World war many of
our soldiers wero wounded and re
turned home, suffering from shell
shock, sick and unable to care for
themselves. They fought in a great
cause and deserve well of their coun
try nnd their comrades. Tho Legion
can give these returned veterans aid
and comfort, und after they have
sullitiently recovered help, them to be
come self-supporting. Many of them
will be unablo to follow tho same oc
cupation that they did before tho war,
but some kind of work can bo found
for them to do. Tho Legion should
wo that their comrades are ulways
cared for.
"The United States is not a military
nation anil believes in wur for tlefense
and not for conquest. At the close of
tho war, uir country asked for no land
and no Indemnity. Not many months
ago President Harding called a con
ference of the nations to discuss u re
duction of armies und armuinent. Tho
American Legion can nld by fostering
and encouraging peace and good will
among nations and by standing for u
fair deal betwe.cn large and small na
tions, allowing tho small nations to de
cide for themselves how they shall bo
governed."

What Returns Does Christ Ruijulro of
Us?
The purpose of tills parable was to
correct the misapprehension of the
disciples as to the Inline Hate establish
ment of the kingdom. They were tin
the way to Jerusalem atid they thought
that immediately upon their arrival
there Jesus would bcgti the exercise
of Ills kingdom rule. It Is to ho
noted that Jesus did not correct them
for believing In the reallly of the king
dom, but for believing that it would
Immediately appear.
I. The Absent Lord (v. 12).
He pictures His going hack to God
as a nobleman going to teeelvo a king
dom, This was a comniiin occurrence
among them. They knew how some of
the Herodlan family had thus done
gone to Rome and secured their ap
pointment to rule over Palestine. Jesus
ascended on high to receive front God,
the Father, a kingdom. Let no ono
mistake the certainty cf His return,
though the time bo unknown, and tho
event delayed.
II. The Distribution of the Pounds
(v. 12).
These pounds represent Christ's
gifts to Ills servants. When Chrlwt
ascended He gave gifts to men (Epb.
4:7, 8, 11, 12). To each servant was
given the same amount, showing tlict
to all a certain gift lus been given
and therefore ull will bo held responsl
ble for Its use. The distribution was
made by the sovereign. It was also a
purposeful distribution. They were to
put their gifts to use during His ab
sence. What the nobleman demanded
was faithfulness. The pounds were to
be used for the Master, not for tho
selfish enjoyment of the servant.
III. The Rebellious Citizens (v. 11).
They hated Him nnd sent messen
gers after Him, notifying Him of their
refusal to be subject to Him. This pic
tures the unbelief of the Jews after
Christ's nscennlon and their repudia
tion of His rule. It ulHqjiIeturcs tho
unbelieving world In Itn hatred and re
jection of Christ.
IV. The Accounting (vv. lfi-27).
1. Its Certainty. Christ will surely
bring everyone to account for the use
made of His gifts. He has appointed
a day in which He Khali Judge tho
world (Acts 17:.'U).
2. Time Of (v. Ifi). It will tako
place when Jesus coined back to earth.
At that time U will summon Ills
servants and reckon with them. This
will take place when He lias received
Ills kingdom. He wljl receive Ills
kingdom when he asks the Father (Ps.
2:8).-
3. Rewards Given fcr Faithfulness
(vv. 30-19). (I) The first report (vv.
30, 37). The pound lijtd gained ten
pounds. He did not nay, "I have mailo
ten pounds," but "Thy pound liath
gained ten pounds." Ih-recognized tho
Lord's ownership. To this the Lord
replied by commendation. He praised
him und promoted him He was mailo
ruler over ten cities. (2) The second
report (v. 18). In this case the pound
had gained five pnunl-. He did not
get the Lord's commendation for he
hud not done so well, but be was ap
pointed to a place jf rulershlp over
five titles. The reword In each caso
was proportioned to lalthfulness dur
ing the Lord's absence. The prlnclplo
of reward was shown to be that faith
fulness In very miiiiP things prepares
for larger responsibilities,
1. Judgment Upo-i the Unfaithful
(vv. 20-27). (1) Ills report (vv. 20,21).
This report was entirely bud. He had
not put the pound U use, but laid it
away, throwing tho blame upon the
Lord. lie asserted that the character
of the Lord was such as to produce
fear. Men ure fulling today In their
service because they have wrong con
ceptions of Christ. Vi) Comniendatldn
(vv. 22, 2IJ). The w.cked servant Is
Judged out of his own ;iouth. Ills ex
ctiso Increased Ids guilt He is called
wicked. (!1) Strlppec. of the pound
(vv. 21-20). To fall to use one's gifts
mentis to lose thorn. 0:ie of the losses
of tho next world will l.e the depriva
tion o( what we have now. (I) Warn
ing (v. 27). Those who reject Christ,
refusing to submit to ills authority,
shall share the same deprivation as
those who are unfaithful In His serv
ice. Hypocrisy.
