LESSON TEXT—Luke 24 1-12, John 14 1-6 GOLDEN TEXT—be thou faithful unto death and I will give thee a crown of life. PRIMARY TOPIC—The Glad Recreation Day JUNIOR TOPIC—The Glad Recreation Day INFORMATIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC- IC - Living Here and Hereafter 1. The Resurrection of Jesus Christ (luke 24:1-12). The supreme test of Christianity is the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. It matters little what Jesus said and did while alive if his body remained in the grave. If he did not come forth in triumph from the tomb then all His claims are false. 1. The empty sepulchre (vv. 1-3) (1) The coming of the women (v. 1) As an expression of affectionate regard for the Master, they came with spices for His body. If they had believed His words, they would have known that His body could not be found in the sepulchre. (2) What they found (vv. 2, 3). When they came to the sepulcher they found the stone had been rolled away, but they found not the body of Jesus. For them to have found this body in the sepulcher would have been the world's greatest tragedy. The empty tomb spoke most eloquently of the delity and power of the Son of God (Rom. 1:3). 2. The message of the men in shining garments (vv. 4:8). (1) "Why seek ye the living among the dead?" (vv. 5). This question, uttered by the angels, has been reverberating through the centuries. (2) "He is not here, but is risen." Jesus had told them that the Lord must be betrayed and crucified and that on the third day he would rise again. Had they given heed to his words they would have been relieved of their perplexities. 3. The women witnessing to the eleven (vv. 911). Their thrilling testimony concerning the empty tomb and the words of the angels appeared to the apostles as idle tales and they refused to believe. 4. Peter investigating (v. 12) While the testimony of the women seemed as idle tales, Peter was not of the temperament to dislike the matter from his mind, therefore he run unto the sepulcher. Upon investigation he found the linen clothes lying in such a way as to prove the reality of the resurrection 11. Jesus Preparing a Place in Heaven for His Own (John 14:13) These last words of Jesus were words of comfort. The hopes of the disciples were utterly shattered when Jesus told them about the cross. He consolled them by pointing to the reunion in the heavenly Father's house. 1. He asked them to trust in Him, even as God (v. 1). 2. Faith in the God man, Christ Jesus, will stand the heart, no matter how intense the grief, or how great the sorrow. 2. He informed them that He was going to the Father's House in heaven to prepare a home for them (v. 2) He assured them that there was abundant room there for all. He said, there were many "abiding places." Heaven is an eternal dwelling place for God's children. 3. He assured them that He would come again and escort them to heaven (v. 3). Jesus will not depend upon nor wait for His own to come to Him but will come and call forth from the gave those who have died; transforming living believers, and take them all together to be forever with Himself in the heavenly home. III. Jesus Christ is the Way to the Heavenly Father (v. 4-6). Jesus informed the disciples that they knew the place to which He was going, and the way. To this Thomas interposed a doubt. In answer to which Christ asserted that He is: I. The Way (v. 6). Jesus Christ is more than a mere guide to God. He is the way itself. II. The Truth (v. 6). He is not merely the teacher but the Truth incarnate. In this incarnation the spiritual and material world were united; therefore every time of truth, whether spiritual or material converged in Him. 3. The Life (v. 6). Chalist is not merely the giver of life, but life is the very essence of life. Only those who receive Chalist have life in the true sense. The New Testament The New Testament has done more toward creating a rule of noble men and women than all the books of the world put together.—Sir Walter Scott Duty and Faith The descent of duty is ever followed by the ascent of faith—Dr. J. B. Shaw. Justice Triumphs Man is unjust, but God is just; and justice finally triumphs—longfellow. BY REV. J. W. HAYES. 615 Wabash Avenue The Words of Jesus About Life Uncoding. St. John 14:1-3. "I give unto them eternal life and they shall never perish." "And these shall go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into life eternal." Jesus answered the question of the ages, the mortality of the soul. The fact that he goes to prepare a place indicates there is a life beyond the grave. The disciples' hearts might have been troubled about many things; such as their disappointment in the establishment of an earthly Kingdom. The fear of their enemies. The predicted fall of Judas and the denial of Peter. And most of all, the departure of their Lord. The concluding words of Jesus are consoling: They are not to be left without a Comforter; Their separation will be a brief duration. The final family re-union will not be in time but eternity. The state of the United family will be both glorious and eternal. THOUGHTS. Death is God's way of colonizing. Every thought, word or act, in time, affects eternity. Troubled hearts often come from the want of faith and understandin. Heaven is both a state and place. Although we cannot explain, just to be with Jesus is enough. Our characters will determine our destinies. We make our own eternity. Coffeyville News N. Splendid services, beginning with Sunrise prayer band; splendid attendance. The spirit was very prevalent. Sunday School at 9:40. The teachers discussed the lesson ve.y beautifully. Review by Supt. 11 a. m., the pastor preached a profound sermon. Theme: "Purging and Washing." Many helpful thoughts were gleaned from the sermon. The spirit was very nigh. After the sermon invitation was extended to the acceptance of new members. 3 p. m., the pastor and members were invited to the A. I. L. Church; at which time the pastor was scheduled to preach. He preached from the theme "Christianity" Seemingly the Holy Spirit dwell with us a.d. day. B. Y. P. U. at usual time, President, Miss Maddux. Evening service, began with devotions led by the Choir. Owing to the fact that the Pastor had spent himself in the 11 and 3 o'clock services, the evening service was further introduced with testimonies. Each member speaking on Progress of the church, from: 1. Spiritual standpoint; 2. Financial standpoint; 3. Of the splendid attendance and the church taking on new life as a whole. The Pastor was much encouraged over the inspiring tales, made by the members. There are a number of sick members in the city. Visitors in our midst are welcome at any time. The Mission Circle met at the church in their weekly devotional services. Friday afternoon, the meeting was opened at 2:40 by the President, Sister E. C. Fuller. Devotion conducted by the Unplain. Topic for discussion, 'The Omission of what we know to be right; and whatever is without Faith is Sun.' The topic was very beautifully opened by Sister Jusie Brad and Her most outstanding thought: It is not the things we do so much, but the things we leave undone that gives us abit of heartache at the setting of the sun. We are pleased to say that our Jr. Mission is moving on nicely under the new supervisor. The young people are taking on new life and many have joined in, engaging the nelses in work of Kingdom Building. The Sunday services were well at tended. A great demonstration of the Holy Spirit was witnessed in the early 6 o'clock prayer meeting. Every one is looking forward to the early Easter service to begin at 5 o'clock in the morning. The Sunday School had a large engathering of children at 9:30. Every teacher was at his post with a prepared lesson, which was inspiration for the 11 o'clock service. At 11 o'clock, the pastor preached from 51st division of Psalms, subject, 'Wash and be clean." B. Y. P. U., opened by President at 7 o'clock. At the 8 o'clock services, devotion was led by Senior Choir. The Pastor read scripture lesson. Sunday afternoon, the Mission Circle accompanied the Pastor to the A. M. L. Church, where the Mito Missionary Society of that church, was engaged in a rally effort Rev. Williams preached a powerful sermon. His central thought being, Sin is sin, no matter where it is found; in pump or in lew; or by whom it is committed. The world is calling for better Christians; the day of getting by, has passed. A paper was read by Mrs. L. Taylor; "Similitudes and Missions." as follows: "SIMILTUDES AND MISSIONS" "Ey Mrs. L. F. Taylor, Phoenix, Ariz." One of the greatest and most striking agencies employed in the teaching and conversions of Israel from sins and iniquities was the use of similitudes. "There is preeminently" an age of compromise. Its bareful influence touches every phase of human life. God pleads with us to beware of the leaven of Herod and of the Pharisees and Sadducees. He is every day preaching to us by the use of similitudes of Missionary Providence, is God's sermon.

"Do not the shadows of each retiring day remind us of death?" Suns have their settings and men have their graves; not only each day, but all through the year, God speaks to us the seed-time, and you are busy by the use of similitudes. Now is sowing and planting. Each hour, God is constantly endeavoring to plant seed in our hearts the frustration of which shall bless the world. Winter is a similitude of warning.

Every animal and every place has a sermon for you. Sit by the sea-side and it talks to you, in constant as is the sea, thou art not half so obedient; the mountains and the hills, have a message, "They shall abide forever, a tower of strength, and a fortress." And every man in his calling has a thousand sermons that are his as he goes about his daily toil. The butcher as he slaughters the lamb, certainly is reminded of the words of God's Book, "As a lambled to the slaughter, he openeth not his mouth." The potter should tremble lest his life be like the marred vessel on the wheel. The printer should take heed that his life be set in heavenly type and not in the black letters of sin. The painter should beware, for paint must not suffice, we must have the unvarnished realities. The banker, cries, constantly, lay by in store, but what of his own soul? The insurance man advises, prepare for the future and the happiness of others; but how about preparation for his own spiritual welfare? To the physician, God surely says man's soul is as sick as his body. To the builders, the Voice of God by similitudes cries. Is the foundation good?

C. or is your building temporal? To the jeweler, as he polishes the diamond, God says, are you one of the gems that God will place in caskets of jewels, when He makes his collection? On and on we could mention the vocation of each man and find some similitudes. God surely is speaking to your heart. It was His voice that said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved." 3 Sunrise Prayer bird led by Sister Josie Bradford was very well atten- ded. Sunday School at 9:30, E. H. Bailley, Supt. Lesson well explained. At 11 a. m., the Pastor, preached another proound sermon, Theme: "Humility." He pointed out the significance of pride. Pride must have a fall; Solomon said, Pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. Pride is the offspring of ignorance. Humility is the child of wisdom. Pride hardens the heart. Humility softens the temper and the disposition. He made a vivid piture to us how Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon was lifted up in pride and because of his haughtiness. God caused him to graze among the beasts of the forest for seven years, because he was lifted up in pride and forgot God. He also pictured Belshazzar, who was also lifted up in pride, met his doom. The spirit was very prevalent. 3 p. m., the pastor and members were invited to Sardia Baptist Ch, Pastor Williams preached from Theme: "Wrinkled Christians and Dirty Clothes." Some of the tho' were: The process of washing; of how Christians needed starching to stiffen up and stand for truth and veracity. He included in his sermon, how badly dirty clothes looked when spread out in public or on exhibition, when they should be thrown way back in the cloths closet; he applied the same to the Christians who were dirty and filthy with the things of life, and were there up in public, on exhibition; some up in the choir and 507 N.

THERE is a fairness in Wichita, for which we must be thankful. Last Monday, in spite of the fact that the Beacon would be certain that no citizen would mistake Dr. Hugh N. Sims for white, it specially said he was colored, he was given a nice number of votes in every ward. This gave rise to the fact that there are persons in all districts, who care not for your color, but think of giving everyone a square deal. He received 1,146 votes, showing that a little more push would have put him on the ticket. So many people think a change on the board of education will help. IT was a sad fact that Dr. A. M. Townsend was murderously assaulted on Mar. 13, at an early hour, at hi a home, while he was putting his car up. We are certain it was done by a worthless character, who did know the value of men of his standing. For a man of value like Dr. Townsend to be killed by a worthless character at this time would seem like a calamity to the race, Denomination and country. It is the desire of every citizen of this country that the guilty party be found. CANVASSING in the eight and nine hundred blocks on Matthewson Avenue demonstrated that their homes are their objects of pride and it is their whole talk of how they are planning to improve them. In side and out is evidence of quality and comfort. We like this and think that every Negro should make his home wanted because if its beauty, instead of having others think it will decrease if he moves into it. Do your best to make a name of quality on everything you touch like the Germans.

To Pastors, Churches and Auxiliaries of the Baptist State Convention of Kansas, GREETINGS: DEAR CO-WORKERS: At the January Board meeting of the Missionary Baptist Convention of Kansas, I was elected Executive Secretary and Superintendent of Missions of the State. A position, not of merit, but of great responsibility and one of opportunity to serve the Baptist of the State. A position that calls for the confidence and support of the pastors and churches of our Convention. I am anxious to start right and hope that I am making no mistake in undertaking the task so dear to the Heart of God. My faith in God and my confidence in the Baptists of Kansas, cause me to consider the position; for I verily believe that the pastors and churches with their auxiliaries will do their duty by the Missionary and Educational work of the State when they know the need. Since the State Convention at Leavenworth, in October, our churches have not been informed of the financial obligations of our Missionary and Educational Program; hence, we are many months behind in our work. We are in need of money to aid our Missionary Pastors, who have been laboring in small fields and in rural places during these very hard winter months. We need money to pay the Dean of our Central Theological Seminary, Dr. E. L. Scruggs, who is doing a great work, training young preachers for efficient service as pastors. We are greatly in need of money to pay our loan obligations I am asking therefore, each church and auxiliary of the Baptist Convention to send an offering to, the I. C. WINGER FOR City Commissioner I am for Wichita people. I believe that we have Wichita people who are big enough to handle any position that the city has to fill. I do not believe in importing anyone for any place, whether it be a municipal position or labor. The imported zoning commission that cost the city many thousands of dollars was in the beginning a failure... Our imported chiefs of police are practically failures. Why not? It is because they know nothing about the conditions of our city or the people to be governed. If I am elected to the City Commission, I pledge myself to Wichita people and not the outside world! Wichita people, I appreciate your vote to make this a Wichita Government. "Resident of the South Side and Lives at 2146 S. Lawrence" office of the Executive Secretary, to meet these pressing needs. I hope all who read these lines will appreciate the importance of acting now and help finance this work as in the past. If you have been sending your offering monthly or quarterly, start again—NOW, and make up your lost time. If you have not been sending an offering, will you begin? Our duty is clear; can we lose sight of self, for the larger interest of Kingdom Work? Let us thank the Lord for the past and resolve to do better in the future. Emporia Hearings ST.
