THE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL PAGE TWO REV. ROBERT H. HAKfliK Strmmet, th Upright Juttg Linn for July 23: 1 Samuel 7: 3- 15-16; 12: 1-5 Memory Selection: 1 Samuel 3: 19 Samuel was one of the great characters of early Israel and there was a potent reason for it in infancy he was dedicated unto God. and his pious mother's act had much to do with his great career. His early life should be familiar to the reader. The first of the lesson text shows Samuel as the strong leader of Israel. After the ark's return from Philistia. Samuel gathered his people to an assembly at Mizpah. and led them to repentance and new consecration to Jehovah. The Philistine regarded the occasion as a mobilization and they came up with a great army upon the Israelites. And they were terribly defeated. Living at Ramah, Samuel held court there and at other places. He was an early "circuit judge."1 At length, after Saul had become the first king and Samuel had grown old, he brought the people together arid asked them for a kind of vote of confidence, not that he might remain in leader ship among them, but that he might depart in peace. Conscious that he had walked in integrity before God, the old man also de sired the approval of his people, and they gave it with one voice. Thus, approved by God and men, Samuel cam to the end of his pilgrimage, and left an ex ample of his righteous service. Let the upright judge be an ex ample unto all who hold high of fice, and to all others as well, in fluencing them to be true and sin cere in all their dealings.

"Truth" is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon which will be read in Christian Science churches throughout the world on Sunday, July 23, 1950. The Golden Text is: "God shall send forth his mercy and his truth." (Psalms 57:3) Other Bible citations include, "Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of- my mouth. My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small ram upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass: Because I will pub lish the name of the sLord: as cribe ye greatness unto our God. He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgement: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he." (Deuteronomy 32:1-4) The Lesson-Sermon also- in cludes the " following passage from the Christian Science text book, "Science and Health with Key to1 the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, "Life. Truth and Love are the realities of divine Science. They dawn in faith and glow full-orbed in spiritual understanding What is termed material sense can report only a mortal temporary sense of things, whereas spiritual ense can bear witness only to Truth."
