FIRST IN LIVE NEWS ALL THE TIME VOL. XXII. NO. 16 DESOLATION IN WAKE OF BERKLEY FIRE Awe Stricken Crowds Throng Devastated Area Where Fire Worked Havoc. No Loss of Life. $750,000 Property Loss. MANY AGENCIES AID HOMELESS The fire swept district of Berkley was the rendezvous last Friday, Saturday and Sunday for thousands of Norfolk and Portsmouth people who were in the city to see the worst calamity that ever visited this city. Sunday the crowd grew to larger proportions; the usual Easter throngs forsaking the parks and thoroughfares, to view the great mass of the fire, the terrible fire had left in its wake. The crowd was somewhat different however, from the regular Easter parades, for the faces of the people showed a marked lack of joyfulness among them, a rhetoric understanding of the loss suffered by some fellow human being. The words "pity," "awful," "terrible" being heard on all sides. MILE LONG AREA WIPED OUT And how could there be gaiety amidst such scenes. Hard, indeed, would be the heart that failed to soften the face before them for more than a mile deep and breadth of three blocks, rows of barren chinneys, heaps upon heaps of an intangible mass of debris, an object here, distinguishable as a piece of earth, its piece there, recounted as the ruins of a possession once prized in some home and the whole scene representing a property loss of over a half million dollars, with a loss in a hundred other ways. On the shore at Tunis old lumber plant to the Norfolk and Southern R. R., down Craig Street (formerly 9th street) reaching on either side into 8th and 10th sts, taking in all of the cross streets in days waste what once was the densely populated colored section of Berkley. CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH DESTROYED Dilapidated shanties, neat little cottages and more pretentious dwellings that once housed over 1,500 colored people are now just so much indiscernable mass in the junk heap. The Church Street, a place where the sanctified and Holy were wont to worship before Thursday the 13th, is now in ashes and only a barren gaunt chinney stands as a marker of where the church was. But five is no responder. Baptist church at Walker Ave, and Craig Street, a magnificent building valued around $85,000, a credit to the race and a monument to religious progress of the colored people too, sell it to a sweeping mansion, sell it back to the skate and walk out with roof or orriders to hold them steady now stand and greet the eye in mute evidence of how unrelentlessly the fire raged. HOMES AND BUSINESS HOUSES LOST keeping low on Craig Street, the flames soon burned the beautiful homes of Messiah Anderson Boone, Columbus Buffalo, Willie Brown, Sidney Seward, into ashes. These were homes with an average value of $3,500, modern in every reverence, a loss estimated in some of the prominent colored citizens. Mr. S. L. Clanton, who with his family occupied a modern 7 room dwelling on Craig Street and operated a progressive grocery business, suffered a loss estimated in 10,000, a stock valued at $3,000, series valued at $3,000 with no insurance thereon. He also owned the two houses on either side of his dwelling, nos. 711 and 715, which were totally destroyed. The barber shop of Mr. R. Welch on Craig Street one of Berkley's first class barber shop once stood. Reaching Liberty Street, the flames mowed down the undertake's establishment of Mr. Louis Pendleton, the foremost colored undertaker of the city. Mr. Pendleton's loss of stock of caskets and fixtures alone will total $3,000. Nothing being saved in the kit. The body of a woman was in the place at the time the fire reached it, but it was rescued before being burned. Mr. Pendleton also lost a dwelling house on Bedford Street. INSURANCE ONLY PARTIALLY COVERS LOSS On Walkers Avenue, the loss to colored property owners is appalling. Many fine residences representing a property value of over $50,000 are no more. These included the beautiful homes of Messrs C. T. Cuffee, J. Brinkley, MG, McGee, Sinclair Wilson, Balle Ridick, H. C. Palm and those of Mrs. Emma Ricks and Mrs. Downing. Among the heavy losers on Craige street are also Mr. W. H. Brock, who lost two dwelling houses and Messrs Joe. Hoggard and James Shark each losing their beautiful homes. The prompt relief to color-prop holders will total $250,000, covered by not more than fifty per cent insurance. PROMPT RELIEF ASSUAGES GRIEF The prompt relief measures instituted by the city, however, lessened very greatly the suffering usually attendant upon such catastrophes. Up to Sunday all of the 1,500 homes had been housed either in tents erected on old St. Helena, a government-solicited religious friend. Two or three hundred two room houses owned by the city at Titus Town, a colored suburban settlement, were immediate- Norfolk Journal and Guide Marriage Licenses William T.

The homeless had nothing to move except themselves, what few belongings that had been drugged from the buildings were burned in the streets. Sad, indeed were scenes on Friday morning. Some parents were sitting around the ground and sat behind the barricade horror through which they had just passed. It appeared that of some of the poorer classes the awful thing had almost stupified them. Little children hugged their mothers and begged for bread when the mothers did not bread, nor the means to cook it. The white citizens of the city have responded generously to the cause of relief subscribing around $6,000 up to this writing. The colored churches of Norfolk, Pormouth and virginity received donations on Sunday for the sufferers and quite a large amount was raised. School Activities BOOKER T.

OPPOSE SLEMP FOR CONGRESS Independent Colored Republican Will Run Against Ninth District Congressman and State Leader. Richmond, Va.—Colored Republicans of the State have declared war on congressman G. B. Slemp, of the ninth Virginia district, and lily white Republican leader in the State. Folk conference here between W. B. F. Crowell of Roanoke, Jos. R. Pollard of Richmond and other prominent colored Republicans it was announced that an independent Republican candidate would be placed in the field to oppose Mr. Slemp at the next election. It is said-upon-good authority that the colored members of the ninth district are 1,000 qualified voters. With a strong Democratic candidate opposing Mr. Slemp this vote is regarded as sufficient to defeat him. UNFRIENDLY TO RAGE Congressman Slemp is regarded as being decidedly unfriendly to the interests of the colored Republicans of the State, as it has appeared to be his desire to not only read them out the South as well. Out of the South as well. He is regarded as being largely responsible for the indifferent attitude of the Harding administration toward the race. Joseph R. Pollard is chairman of the colored Republican organization in the State and Mr. Crowell vice chairman. Y. M. C. A. MEN IN THE CITY Mr. Robert P. Hamil, International Y. M. C. A. Secretary and Major J. H.

They have just completed a tour of the leading cities of North Carolina and report that Durham, Raleigh, Winston-Salem, Ashville, Charlotte, Greensboro and Goldsboro are lining up for the M. A.'s, already purchased sites for buildings while others have had sites contributed for these purposes. Roanoke, Va., is also among the cities visited which is contemplating the construction of a "Y." The colored ascent the elevation and inspiration of the colored youth wherever they are located and every forward looking community without one is standing in its own light. The "Y" work is deserving of the very best support leaders of the race may give it for it to be filling the role of the African-Americans and is more far reaching in its influence for good than any other agency of its kind. Every city needs a "Y." FARM LABOR NOW EXCEEDS DEMAND AND WAGES ARE NORMAL Washington.—The supply of farm labor has now practically reached its normal proportions, according to a statement by the United States Department of Agriculture. Two years ago there was barely three-fourths of a normal supply. Expressed in percent, it was 1920 of the supply to demand was 69 per cent. On April first, this year, it was 111 per cent. In other words, at present farm labor is offering its service in a larger degree than farmers are able to employ. The decrease in price of farm machinery combined with the despatch of abundant supply of it justifies the prediction that the crops of 1922 will be produced at a less cost than for six or seven years. "U. S. May Recognize the Soviet" says a headline. It may be, but it will never take its hat off to it--Fort- land (Me). Express Mr. Llewellyn With National Insurance Mr. C. H. Lewleyllen, who was connected with N. C. Mutual Life Ins. Co., as General Agent of the Portsmouth district, has accepted a position with the National Benefit Life Insurance Co., of Washington, D. C., as manager of the Norfolk district located in the thanks Theatre building, rooms 301-302. Mr. Lewleyllen has worked the life insurance field in Tidewater section for some years and his change of position must be considered distinctly an advancement. It is felt by all who know him and of his business activities that the National Benefit Insurance Co., has chosen to searing Mr. Lewleyllen as its Tidewater district manager for its interests are most sure to expand under the leadership of this capable young man.

WILCOX PRAISES RACE LEADERS Chairman of Tuskegee Board of Directors Sees Hope For Afro-Americans In New Type of Leader. Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—After meeting the honorary unveiling committee of the Booker T. Washington Memorial, which was composed of representative colored men from many states in the union, Mr. William G. Willcox, chairman of the board of directors of Tuskegee Institute. "To my mind nothing was more encouraging than to see that, splendid Honorary Unvelling Committee of the Booker T. Washington Memorial, that committee of about one hundred colored citizens of the country, whom Dr. Moton had invited to act as the Honorary Unvelling Committee. He was the strong, intelligent, forceful faces of those men and I thought I had never seen more to cause me to feel more encouraged about the Negro race. "I have never had any doubt in my own mind that the students at Tuskegee Institute were going to make good use of the opportunities that I had one thing to fel that individuals would make good and it is another thing to see such a fine group of men who already have made good; who already have won distinction in their different lines of work and I think if anyone had any question about the capabilities of the Negro race, that glance of men composing that committee should reassure the most doubtful." Three Injured By Automobile Crash Mrs. Tazewell Johnson, Small Son and Mr. Gilbert Johnson Hurt When Auto Runs Into Buggy.

The police are searching for him, but as no one secured the number of his car, results are doubtful. Mrs. Johnson's teeth were knocked out and she received injuries all over her body. The baby was also in injury, and Johnson was injured but was able to aid Mrs. Johnson. All the victims were treated by a local physician.

Princess Anne Ava. and-Chapel St. Services Every Sabbath at 11:30 a.m. m. and VIRGINIA WINS BOTH SIDES OF DEBATE Normal and Industrial Institute at Petersburg Take Honors From North Carolina and South Carolina Colleges. QUESTION DEBATED IS DISARMAMENT (Special to Journal & Guide) Petersburg, Va. - The Tri-State Debating League is an organization composed of South Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical College, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical College, and the Virginia Normal and Indus Institute. The first debate of this League was held Friday evening, April the seventh. Each school had two teams—one at home and one away from Virginia. Each school sent a team to North Carolina, and South Carolina to Virginia, and North Carolina to Virginia, each case the home team upheld the affirmative side of the question and the visiting team the negative. The question discussed was: Resolved: That the nations of the earth should disarm to a point: necessary to preserve internal peace. Petersburg between South Carolina and Virginia was an interesting discussion and the large audience which was present gave rapt attention throughout the whole debate. Petersburg had the affirmative, and was represented by Miss Mamie L. White and Mr. George W. Downhill with Mr. Samuel L. Perry as alternate. The negative was defended by Mr. Harry Ratray and Mr. Oscar Peay. Some very clever work was done both in the main speeches and in the rebuttal. The decision was two to one in favor of the affirmative team. The son of Washington; Mr. J. H. Blackwell of Richmond and Mr. W. M. Woodyard of Dinwiddie. Doctor John M. Gandy presided. At the same time that the Virginia affirmative team was winning over South Carolina at Petersburg, the team won both the 2-1 victory at the A. and T. College at Greenboro, North Carolina. This gave Virginia a complete victory, having won both the affirmative and the negative of the same question. The Virginia negative team which de- lived at Greenboro was composed of Mississippi Tallahassee, M. Cogdell with Mr. John A. Poulson as alternate. The trophy of the triangle is a large silver loving cup. This cup is to be held by the school which wins both sides of the question in any one of the three properties of the which first wins three complete victories. The cup this year goes to Virginia.

Mr. Haggans gave away among other things, twenty-five pair of new shoes, from his stock, which were very acceptable indeed and came in handy for the day. He also bought shoes of a high quality and as serviceable for dress as for everyday-daywear. Mr. Haggans recently opened the "Variety Shop" and carries a select line of men's furnishings, ladies garments, shoes, hats, etc. His store is well stocked and he deserves the patronage of the people.

Tally, the Executive Secretary of the National Rec Congress in an interview gives out the following interesting information: The success o the Race Uniting Effort of the National Race Congress is assured in the coming session of the Congress, May 2-6, 1922, if we are to rely upon the encouraging statements of organizations of the Negro people throughout the Nation.

Eason, of the Universal Association, of the Negro Wilson, of the Negro Press Association; Honorable Thomas H. Samuels, Grand Master of the F. and A. M. of the Jurisdiction of Illinois and others of similar note are co-operating in this great race uniting effort.

This is the first effort in the history of the race to get leaders of Race organizations to assemble together for united action, and Grand Master of the Masonic Fraternity of the State of Illinois, states clearly that "I appreciate the idea of organizing our leaders for moulding some sort of a race policy, because as it has been been striking blindly without any particular aim or goal; each in his own little way trying to do his bit for the good of the whole. To amalgamate our efforts and to centralize our efforts into one bit, we are indeed a capital and most desirable idea." Dr. W. H. Jernagin, the president of the National Race Congress, together with the Executive Committee are arranging a very interesting program of lectures on the policy of Race action under the new regime of the Race with Declarations of Principles. Leading speakers from African, Canada, India and America are including speakers and facilitators will be among the speakers featured on the program.

AE BERKLEY FIRE Suk The: distressing consequences of the fire which de- ‘etroyed: nearly a million dollars worth of property and ‘gmadé over a thousand more colorod people homeleds’it ‘Betkiey. ward of Norfolk last week were considerably ‘welieved. by the spontaneous manner in which the .city. authorities and citizens generally responded to the' needs "of the hour: Before the fire was under control, City Mana- ‘ger’ Ashburner, Mayor Roper, Director of Public Welfare ‘Schenck, and Director of Public Safety Dillingham were ‘@m.the scene planning relief measures, and it is to the ‘everlasting credit of these efficient municipal officers, ‘Army and Navy authorities and broad-hearted citizens ‘that no one was allowed to suffer for anything. Food, shelter and clothing were provided in abundance, and ‘except for the mental strain and anguish of losing what ‘was to many of the victims all their earthly possessions, “and to others serious financial loss and much inconven- ‘ence, the suffering that accompanies a big fire was ab- “gent. ‘The daily newspapers of the city, especially the : Virginian-Pilot and Ledger-Dispatch also deserve much credit: for the substantial assistance they rendered the -fire victims by opening their columns for the solicitation Sf contributions of cash, clothing, etc, ‘The fine spirit “shown by the papers both in handling reports of the fire “and in raising funds was most gratifying, still it wae what might be expected from the daily press of Norfolk ‘which upon the whole is very fair in its attitude towards , ur group. Z Many of our large merchants, business and profes: -sional men ‘contributed ‘large sums to the relief fund Colored citizens opened their homés freely to the home Jess victims of the disaster, contributed money, food anc clothing, thus doing their part in the relief work. The colored people of this city and section will alway: cherish a a most pleasant memory the splendid manne: in which their white neighbors came to the rescue of th ‘unfortunate victims of the most appalling catastrophe tha ever visited this community. The struggle to regain theit homes and ‘other possessions destroyed by the fire wil ‘be softened by the memories of such kindnesses as wer bestowed upon them in their hour of need. Out of the ruins will rise better homes; u much bet ter type of house, and, as a consequence better livin conditions and a healthier and happier community. OPENING OPPORTUNITIES FOR HOME MAKERS Home making is one of the most essential things in the life of a people. All other fentures of the association of peoples in u community for their mutual sympathy and vacaistance by ‘providing the government and the conven- ences they. need to attain the highest and best in living, dwindle in comparison with the outstanding one of home making. The Christian home is the foundation of the Christiun State und Nation. If a man does not own his ‘home he is at a distinct disadvantage in the community, Just as is the person who has no continuing employment, hut must depend upon the favor of his landlord or his employer for the provision he must make for the sup- Port of his family and the education of his children, High taxation and cost of labor und material, caused by the exactions of the World War and the greed of those who control real estate und the building trades, has ‘rovght about a shortage. in housing in all parts of the country, and especially in the larger cities and towns, as ‘the increase in population has heen greater than the building of,the necessary housing. This scarcity has led to high rentals and subletting to pay them, and the-crowd- ing which makes for uncomfortable conditions and im- mnoral relations. y ‘ ‘The placing on the market of Lincoln Park and Onk- ‘wood Terrace, for homo sites, with plots of 50x160 fect, dy certain capitalists represented by Messrs, Burtlett and Sallivan, will give race home builders of Norfolk an op- portunity which we are sure they will take advantage of, ‘az the race in Norfolk and its suburbs have the home Building principle close to their hearts, and are making the most of it that circumstances will allow.

He appeared only twice in the Academy of Music in Phila- delphia: Persons in the audience wound him up so -with questions that he could not unwind himself. He cut his lecture ‘trip short and returned to “perfigious Albion,” New Sir Conan Doyle, the creator of “Sherlock Holmes,” a wizard in fiction of the mysterious, has about abandoned ‘novel making and=gotiétinto the spirit busi- ies.

They must all have’a medium, against which King Saul made a decree and which Paul rebuked, and they ail fail because the spirits, which are mischief makers, use. the medium to deceive and confuse those who consult them and can only do it through mediums. It is worth while to note that, in twenty-one cen- turies, the Christian people have not had a prophet; not one. They have had the New Testament, and not the Old, for guide in what they should think and say and do, through their bishops and ministers and elders, an¢ when they go outside these they come by confusion wors confounded. Ye In his splendid sermon, summarized in the JourNat AND GuivE of April 15, Rev. Richard H. Bowling summet up the matter when he said: “The man called to become God’s messenger has al. ways to face the question sooner or later: ‘Which wil I be, a puppet or a prophet?” A puppet is a jumping Jack whose movements are regulated by wires and strings A prophet is a living man whose activities are subjec to the leadings of God, The question therefore, is whicl will I be, a plaything in the hands of men, saying onl; those things which will please them and arouse no ire or will I be a man, speaking the will of God to the mer of my generation whether they like it or not.” When the preacher fails to live up to'this definition he fails of hin high calling. He must be a Christia teacher, a good citizen, a moral purist himself, and h '|must war on the opposite of this as he may find it'in th |home, in society, in tho State and in the Nation; he mus be a prophet of the new and better covenant, and not : | puppet, conforming to the times as the weathervane re {sponds to the way of the winds. Because the Christiar | ministry has failed too largély in doing this there ha {been a great falling away of the people from the Chris .|}tian Church in all lands, WHAT CONSTITUTES LENGTH OF LIFE? Arthur Brisbane, the leading writer and thinker of the Hearst newspapers, which string out across the Con- tinent, and which are not always swfe guides in morals, —sociatl, civil or economie,— is n versatile creature, as any render of his ‘To-Day” notes will observe. He says, in u recent spasm: . “Ge-he-nuh-gewn-wonee, Chippewa Indian, is dead, aged 137. He could remember the war of 1812, and was married éight times, In the whole 137 years he lived less than Keates lived, in tht one night when he rend thru ‘Chapman’s Homer. “The Chippewa Indian in his 137 years ulso knew less rent life than Napoleon knew in 10 seconds, as he took the crown in his own hands and put in on his head, “It is how much, not how long, you live that counts. Giant turtles on the Galipagos islands tive a thousand yeurs und never really live at all.” Now, then, what constitutes life, if length of years does not? And how do we know that the giant turtles on Galipagos Island, or the dog in the manger or the horse in the stable, were'not once people, and have not in their fallen condition the thoughts and the feclings of hu- mins? The Scriptures say that “the conies were once a peoples” xo wax Cain before he was cursed to be a ca- nine;-so was Benjamin before his father cursed him to “raven as a wolf,” If the tree hath no life why does it bleed, like a creature, when we bruise it? The conceit of man makes him think he is the only creature with thoughts and feclings, and: that there are differences in humans in these respects which he is not bound to re spect, but which the spirit Creator makes him respect Mr. Arthur, Brisbane and all of us know a, grea deal, buts there ia much more in spiritual and physica phenomena than was ever dreamed of in such philosophy ax we have. .

RELIGIOUS NEWS - WHAT IS GOING ON in the CHURCHES and their AUXILIARIES Texas Women Organize For Social Betterment Prominent Southern Women Take Firm Stand Against Lynching. Declare it a Blot On American Civilization. Dallas, Tex.—(Special)—Declaring that "lynching is the black spot on America's soul," that "we have no security unless the law protects us, and that "law and order must be maintained at all costs," leading men from all parts of the world in organized for the purpose of seeking a Christian solution of the tangled problem of race relations. Mrs. Jessie Daniel Ames, of Georgetown was elected Chairman and Mrs. John S. Turner, of Dallas, secretary.

An appeal was made for the rights of every child to a reasonable chance in life, and for a single standard of morality that will protect the womanhood of all races. The woman's committees will function as a section of the Texas Committee on Racial Co-operation, the purpose of which is to organize in every community where race relations constitute a serious problem a group of the best people to study conditions and needs and deal with them intelligently and in a Christian spirit.

We know how to put the child at ease so as to secure the most accurate findings. And our examination will tell us whether or not glasses will help if not, so we freely say so.

KRYPTOK placed acute situations by confidence and good will. The address adopted by the women follows in full: "We the members of the woman's section of the Texas State Committee on Inter-Racial Co-operation, find ourselves overwhelmed with the opportunity and the corresponding responsibility which we this day face in sharing the task of bringing about better conditions and relations in the South between the two races. * We deplore the fact that the relations for the past fifty years have been such as to separate the two races through a lack of understanding on the part of both. We know that ignorance is not so as to deny the difficulty that disease and death are no respecters of persons, but that they sweep across the boolevards from the places of squall or unsanitary living, to the best kept and most protected homes. We weave the same home is not seized and that its results are felt alike by all classes. "We are persuaded that our native Southland can never reach its highest destiny while any part of its territory is too unfamiliar or efficient. Therefore, together we must meet our task and seek to bring in a new day of better understanding. To this end we call attention to the underlying causes of present day illa: PREJUDICE—"Recognizing the universal existence of prejudice among people of different races, and deploring its existence and its consequent unjust results, therefore are reevaluating the need for New York hearing in his own behalf, and further resolve that we shall not be content simply with being kindly disposed to the race, but that our good will shall reach to the effort to secure for its members justice in all things, and that our good life is desire for the Negro, as for all men, personal and racial justice in private life and in the courts of the land. WOMANHOOD—"Realizing the great increase of mulattoes and knowing full well that no race can rise above the status of the majority of the chusty of the Negro woman and declare ourselves for the single standard of morality among this race as well as among our own. CHILDHOOD—"Recognizing the right of the young child to be not only woman, but man, to opportunity of developing his life to its fullest possibility, we desire for the negro child better homes, better schools and better Christian training. LYNCHING—"Lynching is the black spot on America's soul. So long as America holds a secure for life, low as the headlines of foreign papers carry in large letters 'America burns another Negro' just so long will her shame he world-wide. We have no security unless the law protects us. Mob violence knows no law. As women, as mothers of men, we protest. We confront our life, no matter what the crime. "We declare ourselves for law and order at all costs. The public has a right to prompt and certain justice and should demand such of officials and courts. We believe that America should not permit ignorance and prejudice to be capitalized. In common with the great and honored Henry W.

GOLDEN TEXT-Pride goeth before destruction and an haughty spirit before a REFERENCE MATERIAL - Num. 12: 1-5. Deut. 11:14; 11 Kings 20:27; Dan. 4:2-13. NATIONAL TOPIC-The Story of a Proud King. JUNIOR TOPIC-A Man Who Forgot God. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC-Pride Goeth Before Destruction. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC. The Perils of Prosperity. 1. Uzalzah Mate King (vv. 1-5). 1. His Age (v. 1). He became king at the age of sixteen. 2. Length of His Kiegn (v. 3). He reigned fifty-two years. His mother's name was Jecoliah, which means "Jehovah is able," or "Made strong of Jehovah." 3. His Character (v. 4). He did that which was right in the sight of the Lord. 4. His Prosperity (v. 5). He definitely sought God while Zechariah lived, and because he sought him, God made him to prosper as long as he continued to be as Jehovah as Jehovah, and his turned aside when the influence of the man of God was removed. 11. Uzziah's Achievement (vv. 6-15). 1. He Built Ebolt (v. 2). This was a port on the Red sea which had been lost to Judah. No doubt it was the aim of the father to get possession of this port, so the son makes its restoration his first duty. It was an important trading point and the commercial interests of the nation would be greatly increased by its possession. 2. He Hnd Military Success (vv. 6-8). (1) He conquered the Phillistines (v. 8). After subduing them he dismantled their fortified cities and built new cities in their stead. (2) He defeated the Arabians (v. 7). (3) He made the Arabs pay the taxes the Jordanians tributes (v. 8). 2. He Fortified Jerusalem (vv. 9-15). He took advantage of the pence which was now enjoyed because of the subjugation of his enemies to fortify Jerusalem. He placed in the towers great engines of war for hurling stones. 4. His Civic Improvements (v. 10). In the regions south and west of Jerusalem he built towers which served a threefold purpose, namely: observation, defense and shelter for his cattle. This enabled him to carry on his stock-raising enterprises. 5. His Army (vv. 11-15). It numbered 507,500. It was thoroughly equipped with a gun with a hull, and his fame spread far and wide. The source of his strength was God. 6. Uzziah's Transgression (vv. 16-18). The prosperity bestowed upon him by the Lord was too much for him—his heart was lifted up with pride. This is always so unless counteracted by divine grace. In his pride he presumptuously intruded into the priest's office. This act was not because of forgetfulness, but of deliberate purpose. Anarish and eighty other priests also made him angry. This act was a trespass against God. 7. IV. Uzziah's Punishment (vv. 19-21). While raging in his wrath and about to burn incense he was snitten with leprosy, a dreadful, incurable and unclean disease. This judgment came upon him as a consequence of his overweening pride and vanity. He was thrust out of the sanctuary—excluded from God's house. Indeed, his own conscience smote him, and he hurriedly went out because he knew the place of worship. He not only was excluded from the place of worship, but 'was dethroned. His son Jotham was made regent. His judgment was; 1. Sudden. The Lord smokes him while attired as priest, with censer in hand. Frequently God's judgments are speedy. 2. Severe. The leprosy broke forth upon his forehead. The same judgment betell Miriam for speaking against Moses (Num. 12:10), and Gebah and lying to Elisha (II Kings 8:27). Great sins demand severe punishment. 3. Conspicuous. Assarah and all the priests looked up and beheld the leprosy (v. 29). The spot on Uziah's forehead proclaimed him as the object of God's wrath. How many today are hearing about the leprosy? He was hereforth an audience set off from the congregation. This is what his always does. & Fatal. It ended in death. "The wages of his death" (Rom. 6:23). Causes and Upholder. God alone is in Himself, and is the Cause and Upholder of everything to which He has given being—Puney. Praise the Lord.
