The time during which the inci- dents described in this chapter take'1""'" J1' "4C J" place is a whole year; it embraces! ing him' they find the gate stra;-ht. the whole of Jesus Peraean minis' the way narrow and steep then it is try. As an introduction we note the sending of the twelve; Peter's great! confession; the transfiguration; the: healing of the only son in the brief est way. The lesson proper begins with a re- port by John of a man doing the same as Je-sus did, but did not follow him. John says "We forbade him. (James and John). Jesus did not ap prove of their act, rather rebuked them, for their intolerance; the act of that man was right, and he had the approval of Jesus.

Here again James and John show a trait jof character that Jesus rebuked. This j spirit of revenge "Shows itself only j too often, even among Christians. jThe mission of Jesus and his disciples is not to destroy the souls of men, but o save them. Cne other lesson is to be learned from tins incident and that is: Jesus never forces himself upon man if they will not receive him, he goes to another village, where they will be glad for his company. We come now to another episode in Jesus' going to Jerusalem, where a certain man offered himself as a follower, who had not counted the cost. Jesus did not accept him be- ciiuse lit- .uew men; mis one would; ........ 1 I -...... . . v - , . ! not be a dependable follower; when was accompanied by Mrs. Bennet who also played the wedding music.

The prospect of being led into ' green pastures and beside still wat ers, and protected from all harm is very alluring and many are induced to accept all this and enter into his fellowship; but when it comes to the cross gets heavy. They accept the bread and fishes but to go into all the world and carry the gospel to all nations no. let others do that; ito give up home comforts, they will net. Let a man stop and count the cost, what is costs to be a Christian, , i,efore he savs -t follow thee ; whithersoever thou goest." (Some L;.noiars sav this was Thomas).

Going to talk it over with the home folk; they might persuade him to forget it, put the notion of becoming a follower of Christ out of his head, showing him how he would have to give up the pleasures of the world and his friends, maybe a good posi tion; that farewell may become a farewell away from Christ. Having put his hand to the plow look ahead and turn the furrow and not stop and look back. That kind of a man is not fit for the kingdom of God. By this time we have come to the conclusion that discipleship is not carelessly to be undertaken. If one docs not want to make a mistake and be a failure, let him consider the cost and see if the ' joys and pleas- ures of this world are to be com pared with the Joy, Peace and the Love in the soul, which last for ever, while the former are but for the moment. If this was done by our converts, we might not have so many to report, but ferver and bet ter quality would be the result. It means sacri ifices to be a Christian.

When hanging with the stripes in a vertical position, the stars should always appear in upper left hand corner." ( On parade the American flag always claims the place of honor at the rifht. When flown at half-staff the flag should be hoisted to the peak for an instant and tht.ii lowered to the half-staff position. Be fore lowering the flag it should be raised acain to the peak. On Memorial Day. May 30. the flag should be displayed at half-staff from sunrise until noon and at full staff from noon until sunset. EDITOR'S NOTE: In tune with America's national defense pro gram and patriotic emotion at high pitch, display of the Amer ican flag is becoming increasingly zonular. In response to a wide spread demand from the general public for information pertaining to the proper usage of the flag the Journal in cooperation with the National Department of Amer icanism, Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States, introduces this first of a series of five daily lessons in "Flag Etiquette." These illustrated instructions are based on National Flag Code regula tions, as approved by represen tatives of a large number of pa triotic and civic bodies and en dorsed by the United States Army and the United States Navy. These rules constitute the unwritten law of the flag and this feature is pre sented with the hope it will prove helpful in creating in the hearts and minds of American citizens a greater reverence for the Stars and Stripes and the principles for which it stands. Watch the columns of the Jour nal for this streamlined course In flag appreciation. It will answer all your questions on how to sa lute the flag, how it should be flown on patriotic occasions, how it should be carried in parades and many other rules about the flag which all patriotic citizens should observe.
