Auburn, Ala., October 29th-"The race problem in America is going to be worked out south of the Mason and Dixon Line," said Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, here yesterday at the dedication of the new Rosenwald School building for colored children. This building was erected at a cost of $1,700 approximately, a large proportion of which was raised among the white and colored people of Auburn and of Lee counties.
Rev. T. J. Hutchison, pastor of the Presbyterian church at Auburn, officiated at the meeting, and after a number of selections had been rendered by the Tuskegee quintet, he introduced D. J. Calloway, director of the extension department, who told something of the work of the campaign for the work of Rosenwald schools in Lee county. He stated that thirteen of these schools had been erected at an average cost of $1,000.
Clement Richardson, director of the division of English at Tuskegee, described the old delapidated school building which was replaced by the one dedicated yesterday. His remarks were both interesting and impressive and he emphasized the importance of teamwork in community activities. The same thought of team-work and cooperation was continued in the remarks by Dr. W. E. Hinds, of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, when he spoke. The principal speaker of the day was Dr. Motn. He urged the members of his race to exercise thrift, industry and faithfulness in all of their work, and thanked the white people of Lee county for the valuable assistance and sympathy which they had given. The white people's interest he stated, was manifested by large number of them who were present at the meeting. The speaker concluded his address with a tribute to the Negro's loyalty and patriotism and to the unselfish generosity of Mr. Jullus Rosenwald, one of the trustees of the Tuskegee Institute. His tribute to Mr. Rosenwald was as follows:
I said that we have raised more this year than ever before in the history of this community. It is now important that you save more than ever before. This very school which we are dedicating, was made possible because a gentleman, up in oChicago was willing, years ago, to work long hours and to work faithfully and efficiently and because he sacrificed and saved what he earned until he was able to build up the largest establishment of its kind in the world, giving employment to thousands of people. This quiet, modest, unassuming gentleman is making possible hundreds of schools like this thout the south and many beautiful Young Men's Christian Association buildings, for colored men throut the country. This gentleman was one of Dr. Washington's best friends, he is my friend; he is your friend. He is devoting much of his time and energy as well as means, to helping humanity, drawing no lines in his interest, asking only that there shall be a real need and a real opportunity for service. The president of the United
States recently asked this gentleman to serve on one of the most important hards which is acting in conjunction with him in the conduct of the great war. He has given himself and more, to that great work. This gentleman to whm I refer is Mr. Julius Rosenwald whom you all should know and I hope you may have hung in this build big, a good photograph of Mr. Rosenwald that these children and their chil dren may become familiar with the face of this gentleman who has done and is doing so much for all of us thru out the country. I hope sometimes when he comes to visit Tuskegee Institute (for he is one of the honored trustees) that we may bring him up to see you. His heart is in this school and he is anxious that you should in the truest sense prosper.
"He has authorized through the Tuskegee Institute, the erection of 300 of these rural community school buildings, and we have already erected 161 and with such evidence of appreciation as I have seen here today and with such evidence of progress of the Negro and of understanding between the races, I am sure that Mr. Rosenwald's generosity has been and will be, a great influence for good throughout the South."
The party from Tuskegee included, Dr and Mrs. R. R. Moton, Mrs. R. T. Washington, Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Washington, Messrs. G. R. Briegdforth, C. M. Battey, C. J. Calloway, Clement Richardson, Booker T. Washington, Jr.. A. L. Holsey, and Capt. A. J. Neely, and the quintet.
The meeting was concluded with remarks by President Thach of the Ala-Polytechnic Institute and the introduction of the colored trustees of the school who had played such an important part in the erection of this community center.
Watch your step! Safety first. Look who's here! A grand night in fairyland will be given in Galnes Chapel A. M. E. Church, Monday night, Oct. 20th, for the benefit of the church, under direction of Mrs. Green. Rev. R. L. Heard, pastor. Admission 10 cents, refreshments served.

Amone’ The Masons
Within the past few years states-
meu and politicians have talked and
written much about the conservation of
natural resources and have pointed out
wherein the nation was wasting wealth
through failure to care for what is eas!-
- ly preserved. ¥
We are told that in many of the east-
rm and southern states are countless
“deserted” farms, left by landlords whe
robbed the virgin soil of its strength
to gain riches, aid sought new fields
“when those became barren.
Today, our national government,
which we have heard unfairly devignat-
«il as being “run by grafters aul crook-
ed politicians,” has a competent bureau
devoted to the task of providing meth-
vty of restoring to soil that or whjeh
it was robbed by thoughtless planters
of the past, 13
Has it ever occurred to you that the
seviety of Freemasons is doing about
the same thing as did these farmers
who took from the soil its strength and
=nve nothing back?

men of superior mental and moral at-

Caring*for the Widow
Question. Whose duty is it to care
for the widow of a deceased brother,
the lodge in whose jurisdiction she re-
sides, or ‘the lodge of which the brother
was a member? |
Answer. As there is no provision
of Masonic law requiring any lodge to
care fur the widow of a deceased bro-
ther, or enjoining by authority any sort
of benefit, itis left-wholly tothelodges
tothe notice of which cases of distress
come. The, usual rule has heen for
the lodge to which the deceased brother
belonged to care for his widow and or-
vhahs. He supported his lodge durjn:
his lifetime, and the lodge should care
for those dependent upon lim when in
need. The spirit of Masonry will not
permit the lodge In whose jurisdiction
the needy widow resides. to sit idly hy
asking whether it fs not the duty of
some other ludge to relieve her wants—

The New York Word of November 4th in commenting upon Negro soldiers under the caption "Our Black Soldiers," pays the colored warrior the following high compliment:
"Among the New York colored men responding to the draft yesterday there were few if any who went reluctantly. From every district reports come of the enthusiasm and pride with which they entered the service of the United States.
"We have in this element of our population a race without nationality save that which it has acquired under hard conditions upon our own soil. It owes neither allegiance nor sympathy to any foreign prince, potentate or power. It hates tyranny because it has been the victim of tyranny. It has no prejudices acquired abroad, no affiliations with an older civilization, no prepossessions of language, religion, philosophy or Kultur to mitigate its Americanism.
"Officers of the United States Army, from the Commander in Chief down, have no higher duty than to see that these Americans are subject to no discrimination on account of their color. Men of their race are treated as equals in the armies of Great Britain and France, as they deserve to be. To countenance anything less than this in the Army of the United States would be to surrender not only discipline but Americanism. "If we have any soldiers, who hold themselves superior to the colored men, let them prove it on the field of battle."
SEGREGATION LAW FAILS
The Supreme Court of the United States has just handed down a decision which holds that the "Compulsory separation of the Negro and white races in residential districts is a violation of the Constitution." The ruling was altogether unqualified and sweeping and was concurred in unanimously.
"Such laws," the court decided; "would not prevent the amalgamation of the races, or prevent race riots," as had been claimed by those advocating and espousing it. "Desirable as this is and important as is the preservation of peace, this aim cannot be accomplished by law or ordinances which deny rights created or protected by the federal con titution." runs the ommiah. Several of the lower courts, in various states where this matter had been brought up, usually based upon substantially the same grounds and lines of reasoning, had upheld such ordinances coming from cities and towns within their jurisdiction, through narrowness and prejudice or misconception and misintpretation of the law. Either cause is bad enough.
We hope that this adjudication will put a final stop to the matter, the aquitatem of which has caused much vexation, annoyance, inconvenience and expense in many communities. Negro home-owners and purchasers, mostly in select neighborhoods where they had built up comfortable surroundings and comforts, have been intimidated and driven out at times. These incidents have not always taken place in the smaller towns, for Atlanta, Baltimore, St. Louis and Louisville and others have been guilty of such outrages.
The Supreme Court of the United States, as was expected of it, has risen in its pre-eminence and high vision of unwavering Justice, and put its foot on this species of class discrimi-

nation and race hate. It could not afford to do less and maintain its own self-respect and the respect of its great constituency—the great people of the United States. There is but one right way, one standard, of justice, and no temporizing, quibbling or subterfuge can ever settle great social and moral questions like this one under discussion. Surely, "no question is ever settled until it is settled right." This victory is a splendid compliment to the untiring zeal and manly courage of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and other similar organizations who have fought this menace and injustice, consistently, courageously and intelligently.
These agencies stand out in such striking contrast to the weak, vacillating, trucking and obsequious sycophants, whose idea of racial self-respect permits them to cringe and to beg eternally.
We have got to fight our way up, like all the other races of the earth have done, through intelligence and character and the power which organized effort and money alone can give.
There is no other way but this.
NEW MEMBERS ON BOARD
We congratulate the Board of Education, the Savannah public and the institution of education, on the selection of Messrs. Chas. Ellis and Frank G. Bell to take the places made vacant by the resignations of Judge Samuel B. Adams and Mr. W. W. Machall.
The people can still be depened upon to do their best when it comes to providing for the education of their children, as the selection of these two broadvisioned gentlemen attests.
We believe these men will add honor and dignity to the distinguished body to which they are called, and we feel that the educational interests of the whole people will be effectively subserved and, continued.
"The Hawkeye." some sort of local paper, continues to prod and to taunt the Mayor and Chief of Police regarding the erstwhile restricted East Side. This time the officers are being ridiculed concerning their proposal to beautify this impugned and blackballed district. These houses carry rent signs "For Rent to Colored People," and the like.
White women of the North and East are said to favor votes for colored women and men. They could not very consistently and logically decline to do so, when asking for full freedom and unabridged rights for themselves. The Savannah Press remarks in ridicule and sarcasm, that in this section we are very little bothered with Negro voting of any kind. Here have we a big daily paper gloating and jesting over discrimination and disfranchisement.
CONSPICUOUS PROGRESS
The Pilgrim Life and Health Insurance Company has epitomized its twenty years of successful co-operation and faithful stewardship to its promoters, and policy-holders by erecting the splendid Home Office building, recently dedicated at Augusta, Ga. It is a beautiful and well-appointed property and is significant of the possibilities of business co-operation among our people. It is an eloquent testimonial to the business acumen of the conceivers and organizers of the institution and of the faith of the rank and file of our people in race enterprises.
In a review of its history, it appeared the company had the usual humble beginning with many misgivings and abundant mistrust on the part of the public. But the narrative disclosed a splendid body of men at the concern's head, directing its policies and its destiny. These were men who had risen above the mean sphere of "rule, or ruin" conduct and management. All along and even up to today, they seem to thoroughly understand and acknowledge their official relationships. It is failure along these lines which has caused so much failure in Negro business.
We are proud of Savannah's part in the building of this splendid monument to the credit of Negro business possibility. We are proud of the splendid men who have caused Savannah to be so generously recognized as being a worthy and important part of this great insurance company. This community is honored and advanced by the citizenship of A. B. Singfield. We believe in the unfolding and illimitable possibilities of the race along business lines for the great future of untried and changing conditions. We have the faith that our tuition in the hard school of experience will fit us to grapple more successfully with the problems of commercial and political institutions of the future.
We do not doubt that the many splendid examples of Negro business success will serve to arouse our people to a realization of our tremendous resources and possibilities, when ably and honestly directed by our good men. How appropriate the name of PILGRIM!

COMMITTEE PUTS OFF UNIQUE ENTERTAINMENT
On last Wednesday night Chairman Brown and his house committee of the Savannah Home Association entertained the association and their friends with a delightful and very unique entertainment, introduced as the "Ghost dance". The Home Boys are known to have original ideas and the above dance not only made a decided hit but undoubtedly will prove very popular during the coming season. A few minutes before 12 o'clock the lights were turned down and the guests began dancing to the weird strains of "Winter Nights" played by the new Black and Tan orchestra. A gong somewhere soon announced the mid-nigh hour. All kinds of uneanny noises were heard and the lights were turned up. The music stopped and every body shook hands. In the midst were seen several masquered figures, dressed in white. The ladies who were fortunate enough to hold the hand of one of these white figures, known as a ghost, received a prize. The orchestra struck up Home Sweet Home and everybody departed after enjoying one of the most unusual dances of the season.

Games were played, after which all were presented with souvernirs.

CANNOT BUILD BUSINESS ON SENTIMENT ALONE
Weekly Business League Weekly Letter By J. C. Lindsay
Along all the lines of human endeavor, such as business, social, fraternal, religious or what not, cowards and doubling Thomas have made for them selves their own impossibilities. The man whose mind is thoroughly made up to bring success to that enterprise or institution with which he is connected, and plans and works well his plans to that end, there are no powers on earth nor in the waters under the earth, which can permanently keep such a man from succeeding. But the man who goes about his work in a half hearted, careless and indifferent way, like entirely too many of our men and women in business do, had just as well close up shop and ask some one to direct him to a "boss" who will point out to him at all times what he must do next.
It was National Secretary Emmett J. Scott, the now great moving spirit of the National Negro Business League who said: "We hear much these days about colored people not patronizing colored business enterprises." Then Mr. Scott goes on to explain the reason for the complaint registered, and says: "The truth of the matter is that many colored business men have neither kept pace with the broadening and discriminating taste of colored customers nor with the specialized efforts of their white competitors." Let the Negro business man who may chance to read these lines, do some hard, straight thinking. Let him now make it up in his mind, and resolve from this day not as a competitor in business of the other fellow's that if having on hand at all times what the people want and must have is the thing which takes his trade from him and carries it to the Dutchman on the corner, that from this day, henceforth, he, too, will keep his stock up to the standard.
Mr. Scott goes on to say: "It's a far cry from sentiment to business." No explanation is needed here for one to understand such simple philosophy which eminates from this great international character who for more than eighteen years, sat at the feet, so to speak, of the wizard of Tuskegee. He continues with these words: "This is an age of specialized selling methods and the colored merchantus, fall in line or fall out." Mr. Scott further says: "The difference between the business which is mighty fine, and just so so is the difference in merchandizing methods." Then he adds: "We, speaking of the Negro Business League can help you to put your business into the mighty fine class."
In every community where there live any appreciable number of members of the race, and where a limited number of them are engaged in business, they should have the unstinted support of the other members of the race in that community. But it also should be remembered that those of us who may be engaged in business must have just a little more to offer the people than simply we are Negroes. We should bring our enterprises up to the very highest standard of excellence.
We wish to be fair with ourselves and tell the whole truth as we see it. Some of our merchants seem not to study the wants of those out of whom they wish to make customers, and for their negligence in this regard, have already paid too dear a price. Some of them seem to think that all they will have to do to get the trade of our people is to pass the word around that they are members of the race. But such are entitled to the patronage of the other members of the race. But some of us have lived long enough to learn that those of us who entertain

rones for the evening were Mrsf Nelle
Taylor and Mrs. Charity Anderson.
Mrs. Olivia Prior pleasantly entertained with a tea party in honor of Mrs. Isabelle Freeman on Thursday
evening of last week, at her residence

CHANGE OF DATE
Owing to the change of schedule of the Steamship St. Louis, the social club of that host will change the date of dance of the 6th, of this month to Tuesday night, November 13th at the Masonic Temple. The public is cordially invited to attend. A pleasant evening is promised. All the latest music will be rendered by the Metronome orchestra. Subscription. 35 vat; couple, 50 cents.
such ideas are really mistaken. The housewives of the greater portion of our men at this time are educated and refined and will not accept any article of food or clothing from any merchant, be he white or black, other than the very best. Therefore, we plead with our merchants to arouse themselves and go out after the trade of our people. The trade of our people in merchandising, like the industrial insurance business, as conducted by the Negroes in this state can be controlled.
There is no rubbing out of the fact that the industrial insurance business in this state is being very largely controlled by members of the race. These Negro insurance companies in this state have long since come to the conclusion that to get and hold their own kith and kin into the several Negro insurance companies, they would have to meet legitimate competition, matters not from what source it came. Not only are these concerns handling more Negro money than any other class of business in the state conducted by members of the race, but as a result of their fair play and business methods they are able to give employment to more members of the race than any other line of business we have in the entire state.
We conclude by saying, let every Negro man and woman who are engaged in business, see to it that they in a business way meet any and every legitimate competitor who is engaged in the same line of business.
The next meeting of the local Negro Business League will be at the league's headquarters. Wage Earners Bank bujlding, on Friday night, November 16th, to which every one interested in the commercial welfare of the race is invited.
DOMESTIC SCIENCE TEACHER
On last Tuesday, the principal and teachers of Cuyler street school were very pleasantly entertained by the domestic science teacher and her class. The class spared no pain in preparing a delightful lunch for the teachers. It was clearly demonstrated to the teachers, the idea of having a plenty and yet not wasting anything. The spacious dining room was very fastily decorated with ferns and potted plants. The teachers wish to thank Miss McDowell and her class for their kind remembrance.

Once upon a time, and this is veritable history, I was called in the dead of winter into the wilds of New Hampshire to the funeral of a dear friend. The snow lay deep upon the ground. It covered the fences. And along the country roads and over those fences came relatives and friends from near and from far, to pay the last respects to the friend who would never again in this world respond with expressions of friendship. And I recall that as we sat in that quiet front room in the New Hampshire farmhouse, and sang a few quiet hymns and listened to a quiet discourse, and bowed our heads during the quiet prayer, that during the pauses of the prayer, I heard the clink of dishes in the next room where kindly neighbors were preparing a meal for those who had come from a distance, and who must be fed before they took their long journey into the cold.
So it always is, life in the midst of death. The old world rolls on and usher in the new day despite our agony and our heartbreak. I have read that upon the blood stained battle fields of the present war in Europe, that this spring the flowers never bloomed so profusely or were so bautiful. It is as the the Eternal Father tried to cover up the effects of human malice and hate, and hoped by song of bird and beauty of flower and twinkle of star to call men back to their better estate, and to assure*man,
"That life is ever lord of death.
And love can never lose its own."
But I confess that it was with a little jolt to the feelings that as we turned down the long walk that leads o the street, bent upon the sweet mission of saying "God be with you" to our soldier boys, this time not clad in civilian attire, but in khaki, and carrying commissions as they went, it was a little jolt to the feelings. I repeat that as we started down the long walk that other group of lads came tumbling down the steps that lead into he boys' hall, clad not in khaki, but in their togs bent upon a practice, game upon the gridiron. "It is the old, old cry, 'The King is dead. Long live the king.' Nor would we have it otherwise and I accepted it as inevitable that the game must go on.
And so we gathered again in the limb and dusty old Car Shed, much the same company that gathered in the same place in June to send our sons to Fort Des Moines. There was the same repression of feelings on the other occasion. Again, there were tears, but no outey, handclaps and such hand-claps, but almost no words. I recall that in June one matron took me by the hand and as I saw her eye filled with tears, mine also filled, and I said, "Madam, do not cry, for if you do I shall," and she said on this occasion, "You see I am not crying now for the boys have done so well." And I might have said, "Madam, this is the time to cry and not that. Then we could have prophecied this gathering. But who can prophecy when these me shall return or in what shape or under what circumstances?" But I did not say it. That thought was in every one's mind.
But I missed the boy. I had had one handelasp and one word, when other friends claimed him, and both as I was I could not hold him against them nor would I. But I longed for one more word, one more look into his face. I looked almost vainly, but all at once I found him looking for me. With a gesture of command he called me to him, and while his right hand sought mine with a warmth and a vigor new to me, with a gesture of protection he threw his left arm around my shoulders as the to defend me from an approaching onslaught of Vandal, Hum and Teenan. It seemed as though we stood there for hours but it was only for seconds, while the railway officials called out "Board the train, men." But that gesture of protection seemed to me to typify. America defended by Ethiopia; the Son of an Ethiopian Princess, the grandson of an Egyptian Pharaoh standing guard over the Pilgrim-Puritan-heritage.
I once knew a Jew who had become a Christian. He was of Dutch parentage. He told me that when his family learned of his conversion, that they gathered themselves together, and read over him the burial services, and that to them, his hinfolkk, he was as one buried. I do not know how you feel, and yet, perhaps, I do.
The student camp at Fort DesMoines was granted in response to a student demand for an opportunity for officer-training for colored students as for white. The granting of that petition by President Wilson represents the one constructive movement for the Negro since the passage of the Fifteenth Amendment. And when the boy signed that petition he knew and I knew that the plans for his career which we had made all vanished into thin air; and that there was for him, the khaki, the camp, it may be France, or Flan-
ders. And it may be that some night he will write me from "somewhere in France," as wrote Bernhard Claudius Lavergue, the young French soldier, to his mother: "Tonight we leave for the trenches. Tonight I shall be watching over you, rifle in hand. You know who is watching over me."
Because I believe that God is good, I have faith to believe that out of the welter and desCRIPTION if the present, in His own time He will bring a lesson and blessing to humanity. But Bernhard-Claudius Lavergne had a brief experience standing guard at the trenches, and who knows how soon your son or mine, may, follow him. Liver since that petition was signed, I have looked upon our youth, not as dead, but as dying; dying of the great white plague of war that is enmessing us all. And it seems to me that if there is anything that I can do to show to them my admiration, my adoration, my love, now is the time. It may not be for long.
O, Righteous Father, with whom is no variability neither shadow of turning, grant that these, thy sons and our sons, shall not go forth upon a fruitless errand. Grant, we beseech Thee, that they and the hosts that battle with them shall accomplish that purpose which we believe is thy purpose; and that their sacrifice shall usher in the reign of universal brotherhood; that Liberty, Democracy, and Peace shall come, and shall come permanently to all nations and to all peoples that inhabit the earth.

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE. SATURDAY NOV. 10TH. 1917
SUNDAY SCHOOL.
THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES.
Text of the Lesson, Dan. ix, 3-19—Quarterly Review—Golden Text, Ps. cili, 8. Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
LESSON I—Isaiah's call to service, Isa. vl. Golden Text, Isa. vl, 8, "Here am I; send me!" (We often abbreviate the Golden Text for lack of room.) We all need such a vision as this or Rev. iv, and these are written that we may have them and know God and hear His call to us and respond as Isaiah and Jeremiah and Ezekiel did, speak His words faithfully and leave results to Him.
Lesson II.—Ahaz, the faithless king, II Chron. xxviii, 1-5, 20-27. Golden Text, Heb. xi, 6. "Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing unto Him." Every king on David's throne was expected to represent the Lord there and be a king for God. Believers are expected to represent Christ in some measure as He did the Father. Are we good or evil in His sight?
Lesson III.—Hezekiah, the faithful king, II Chron. xxx, 1-13. Golden Text, Heb. xi, 6. "He that cometh to God must believe that He is." There can be nothing better than to do right in the sight of the Lord (xxix, 2), make His house or His kingdom, our first thought and do all we can to gather people to Christ our passer, who was sacrificed for us.
LESSON IV.—Senacherib's invasion of Judah, H Kings xix, 20-22, 28-37. Golden Text, Ix. xix, 1. "God is our refuge and strength." It is surely inspiring to see two men, a king and a prophet, crying to God against such a host of enemies and to see one messenger from God taking 18,000 of the enemy off the earth in one night. Let us spread all our troubles before God as this king did.
LESSON V.—God's gracious invitation, Isa. I, 1-14. Golden Text, Isa. IV, 6. "We ye strength white. He may be found. Call upon Him; He is near." The worldwide thirst can be quenched only in God's appointed way, and that is by Himself, the fountain. No bread can satisfy but the Living Bread. He only can win the nations to film self, and He will do it through Israel.
LESSON VI.—Mannseh's sin and repentance, II Chron. xxxiii. 9-16 Golden Text, Isa. iv. 7. "Let the wicked forsake his way; * * * our God will abundantly pardon." A great lesson to encourage great sinners to turn to a great Saviour, who never turned true penitent away. He saved the penitent thief and Saul of Tarsus.
LESSON VII.—Josiah's good reign, II Chron. xxxiv. 1-13. Golden Text, Eccl. xl. 1, "Remember thy Creator in the days of thy youth." One of the youngest of all the kings, who had a very bad father, and yet he did right in the sight of the Lord, turning neither to the right hand nor to the left, and none ever turned to the Lord with all his heart as he did (II Kings xxiii. 25).
LESSON VIII.—Finding the book of the law, II Chron. xxxiv. 14-33. Golden Text, Ps. exix. 16, "I will not forget thy word." The word was received with meekness, the people humbled themselves before the Lord, the greatest passover since the days of Samuel was kept, and a great cleansing of the land from idols followed, including some of the idolatry started by Solomon.
LESSON IX.—The captivity of Judah, II Kings xxxv. 1-12. Golden Text, Ezek. xxxiii. 11. "As I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked." Long did He bear with them and many a time for gave them, but notwithstanding the zeal of Hezekiah and Josiah and the entreaties of Isalah, Micah and Jeremiah they would not hearken, and the captivity came.
LESSON X.—The shepherd of captive Israel, Leke, xxxiii. 11-27. Golden Text, I's. xxiii. 1, "Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want." Not only did they return after the, seventy years, but they will return for good at the end of this age and be one nation in their own land and never be divided or scattered again. Then shall they be a blessing to all nations.
LESSON XI.—Daniel's purpose of heart, Dan, I, 8-20. Golden Text, Dan, I, S, "Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself." This was because the food from the king's table had been offered to idols and Daniel and his friends would keep themselves wholly for God. Thus thy purposed and thus they continued.
Lesson XII.—The flory furnace, Danill, 16-27. Golden Text, Isa, xilli, 2. "When thou walkest through the fire thou shalt not be burned." The same Spirit who would not let them eat food offered to idols would not let them bow down to this image, even though it might mean their death. The same test will have to be met by many at the end of this age, Rev. xilli.
Lesson XIII—Daniel in the lions' den, Dan, vi, 10-23. Golden Text, Ps. xxxiv, 7, "The angel of Jehovah encampeth round about them that fear Him and delivereth them." The wicked are always watching the righteous and seeking to slay them, but their triumph will be short, and the upright will have dominion in the morning (Ps. xlix, 14). If we are in the way and walking before God in sincerity we may have quietness and confidence under all circumstances (Isa. xxx, 15; Job xxxiv, 29) and sing "He is my peace" (Eph. 11, 14).
