Them is a vast difference of opinion among: property holders as to what kind o f material, should be Ofcod. Council stands ready to make any kind of improvement that will be satisfactory to the taxpayers. ■ The next thing for council and property owners to do is to arrive ,at some conclusion, as soon as possible. The next meeting o f council will be on Monday evening and the matter should be settled at that time. People should realise that, it taker several months to secure the neces­ sary legislation to provide for street improvement, To leave this work un­ til late spring would mean that we roould have no improvement' until past the middle of the summer. The prop­ er time to start suoh' work is as soon ; as the weather will permit in the ;*P|T1ias been the opinion o f many .’property owners that whatever im­ provement is made should be nerma- rnent, such as brick or some other ^material of like nature and wearing ^qualities. Whether enough frontage ‘.can he secured is a problem as many ‘are complaining of. the cost, f t has 'Keen, our idea., thfit one cost should 'he made to provide for the future, ‘Xhd this, could only he done by usinp ;•brick which should stand twenty-five ybars. * > ;; A proposition has been made that Main and Xenia avenue be resurfaced hy macadam using a waterbouw treatment. I t would be. necessary ti dig otit South.Main street and lay tik for drainage and then fill in wit! broken stone. Macadam streets and roads can be made useful Tor five tc ■seven years but the cost must b'Odu- plicated a t the-end-of that time tc resurface again. Council should view the situatior as an immediate necessity and pro­ ceed with some sort of improvement It' matters no t what form is selected there will he some objectors. The abutting property should pay the cost of the improvement and ".not load down the tax .duplicate with so great d debt that we can have nothing more in-the nex t‘ten years. We have a sample of that in our electric light contract. ’ • Monday evening is none too late to. start this work and property own­ ers should be present and _ council should provide the .necessary informa­ tion front a legal standpoint that will be necessity. • CHURCHSERVICE; UWTtD **W**VT*ftlAN. ‘ : 1 . v.

LESSON FpB MARCH 5 THE DEATH OF STEPHEN, LESSON TEXT—Acta 7;l-8:S, , .GOLDEN TEXT-.Be thou ralthfu) unto death and 1 will give thee the eroWn of life.—Rev, 5:10, . This lesson eUmeJy follow# that of last Sunday- There are some battles of life that are pot fought with fists or weapons. The boy who holds hTs temper is more manly than the one who goes into a fight simply to'win. Paul tells us how and what to light (Rpli. 6:11, 12)., VPe must show the scholars clearly the two great bat­ tles Stephen fought and the victory he won as described In today’s les­ son. The charges made against Stephen were made by ’’false wit­ nesses." This does not mean men who invented false words, but men who took isolated statements, distort­ ed them and by Innuendo used them for their own ends. Stephen was charged with three things: (a) Blas­ phemy against God (6:11-13), (b) That he had said Jesus would return and destroy the temple (6:li), (c) That he claimed that Jesus .would de­ stroy or abrogate the law (6:14), Thia great passage of Scripture is so pro­ found and so closely cbnaected that we hesitate in trying to separate it Into divisions or sections. We much prefer to note the logical argument and presentation Stephen the Spirit- anolnled deacon made to the Sanhe­ drin, !. Stephen’s Defense, Stephen was a Grecianlzed Jew, whose name means "a crown," He answered the charges of these foreign accusers, made before the Sanhedrin, seriatim. His point of contact was to respect­ fully remind the council that he was an orthodox Jewish believer and worshiper cv. a). Hfe caned me conn- Ml '-'Men, brethren and fathers." They were common believer* and all were standing before the God-appointed leaders of Israel. Stephen in his re­ ply showed that he reverenced God and. God's prophet Moses, thereby an­ swering the first charge (v. 11), and while he reverenced the temple he showed that it was not essential to worship (7:47:49), This last was in answer to their second charge (6-14). In answer to their third charge Ste­ phen then turned upon his enemies and by direct and indirect charges he convicted them of certain, facts. In­ directly, by skillful repetition of Jew­ ish history, and a review of the prophets, he discloses the vacillation and sinfulness of God's chosen people (23, 29). Directly he accuses these leaders of having been subservient to certain customs as being superior to the law they professed to obey. Ste­ phen’s accusers were, as we h&ye seen, from without Jerusalem (6:9, 10 ), and his first battle was concern­ ing the truth about Jesus. Hia second great battle, and one of his ultimate victory, was with these avowed ene­ mies of Jesus (6:11-8:3). Jl. Stephen’s Death, The real con­ test of this occasion was Satan vs. the Holy Spirit,. Stephen put to rout these men from the foreign synagogue, hence the Jewish authorities, deter­ mined to take hold of the problem themselves ahd put a stop to thiB Christian teaching. , Stephen’s sud­ den application of the Scripture to his judges caused Intense anger. He preached the word of God in the dem­ onstration of the Holy Spirit, and such preaching always either produces con­ viction of sin, or eise arouses anger nt the preacher. These men could net deny the truth of his accusation; they therefore turned upon him in anger. Being “full of the Holy Spirit” is an’ abiding condition and inevitably in­ volves a conflict with Satan. It led Stephen to look up and not about him, and in his hour of testing he saw a wonderful vision of heaven—“The glory ot God and of Jesus standing.1' Let us accept the testimony of this dying man as a literal fact. . This sight strengthened him - for his suf­ fering and for his witnessing. Death had. no more terror for Stephen and he was faithful and steadfast to the end. III. Stephen’s Burial. These men’ overreached themselves, for persecu­ tion simply scattered those who gave the Christian testimony a wider and a moye effective hearing (11:19-21).. This force of circumstances thrust the early church*-forth from Jerusalem, Now, after a period of perhaps five or seven -years, we see the beginning o£ the literal fulfillment of the Pente­ costal program (Acts,, 1:8). During this storm of persecution the apostles remained at their posts in Jerusa­ lem; Saul's rage knew no bounds, and not content with disputations iu the synagogues, he persecuted the chtirch, sparing neither sex nor age (8:1-3). ' Stephen’s success was in his per­ sonal life and his unswerving testi­ mony. ■ •“* , Stephen's victory, has been a first fruit of the triumph of- the. church throughout Its history. In heaven he wears the victor’s crown among "the overcomers/' Over the grave of the two Wesleys, in Westminster Abbey, is a tablet hearing these words: "God buries bis workers, but carries, on the work," For Polishing Gists.

Then come the other muscular group#, and then come the vocal expressions of laughter, such as brays, cackles, sniggers, sim­ pers, giggles, snorts, grunts, foghorn rumbleB, yells, shrieks, guffaws, trills, jchuckles, sniffles, and all sorts of pe­ culiar bird notes and musical sounds. —From the B.
