Esau and Jacob were In decided con* trast, They differed In appearance and disposition. Esau waa a cunning hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a plain tpan, dwelling In tents, ’they were born that way. Every child born Into the world possesses a peculiar bent which we call Individuality. No two are exactly alike, even twins like Esau and Jacob, The wise parent, the wide-awake teacher, the educator, seeks diligently to discover that pe­ culiar Individuality, and to give It di­ rection according to the laws of Its 'own being. This bent Is the basis of character,- Neither Esau nor Jacob Is an Ideal personality.. Both are selfish. If. Parental Favoritism (v. 28). Isaac loved Esau because be did . eat of his venison. ; He ought to have loved him because, he was his son; but It Is a sad commentary upon a fa­ ther that his love fo r bis son had such a sordid basis as that of his. stomach. Isaac, however, was like many today ,whose love is secured through their ap­ petites. Rebecca, loved Jacob, though we'are not told why." Perhaps It was because of his cunning. In this re­ spect he was like his mother, who practiced craftiness to a finish on her husband. Cleverness la a bond which Strongly bind3 together many people. Many hold the respect of their friends because of their shrewdness, irrespec­ tive of their moral Qualities. Parents should treat their children alike. To show , partiality is both unwise and unjust. Even when children possess peculiar qualities which call forth_pa- rental affection, It should never be made Manifest that preference is made. III. A Birthright Sold <w. 20-34). 1. Esau’s profanity (Heb. 12:16-17), ■00 sold' bis birthright fo r a bowl of pottnge. The birthright was the right of being at-the head of the patri­ archal family, a position of honor and Influence, as well as being tlfe Inherit­ or of a double portion of the father’s estaiw. This being a gift of God should not be despised. F e Came from hunting physically exhausted. In this moment Of distress, he thought only of that which promised Unmcdiate sat­ isfaction. He was willing to relin­ quish all claim upon the future, 11 ' only his present desire could be grati­ fied. A profane ^person Is one who for the enjoyment of the present will forfeit nil claim upon the future, He Would-gladly gain both worlds, but seeing that mess of pottage he lets go of the future for the present, Swear­ ing is profanity, hut not the most com­ mon. To be under the sway of appe­ tite is to be profqne. "What profan­ ity about .ns) For a moment’s sin­ ful pleasure men and women are throwing away lnnocehce, happiness, and their ipouls eternally. This is most serlou?, for acts are irrevocable, 2. Jacob’s canning. I t was right that Jacob should have the birthright, for it was according to God’s plan which had been pronounced (v. 23), but'his scheme to get It is to be condemned. He took advantage of his brother’s weakness to drive a sharp bargain. The same" thing is practiced when un­ der the force of necessity unlawful in­ terest Is exacted, or property is bought -under price because one is obliged to sell, ^ To get rich at the expense of anoth­ e r Is to practice Jacob’s sin. Modem competitive business methods to a de­ cided extent are of .his type. Let each one ask: “Is my name Jacob?" The end never Justifies the means. God said that the e l’.er should serve the younger. It was his plan that Jacob should be fit tbe head, but God was able to bring his own plans to pass. He did not need the scheming of Ja­ cob and his mother to farther his plans. To do evlt taut good may come th always wrong. Understanding the Bible. Xbelieve that the Bible is to be un­ derstood in the plain and obvious ' meaning of its passages; for 1 cannot pemtade myself that a book intended for the lnstructlon- and conversion of the whole world should cover its true meaning In any such mystery and doubt that none but crlticsiand philos­ ophers can discover it.—-Daniel Web­ ster, Public Good. There never was fonnd In any age of the world, either religion or law that" did bo highly exalt the public good as the Bible,-—-Bacon, ' i With Christ's Aid. With the power of Christ perfected to my weakness, I iu» equal to every temptation, Competent for every duty, equipped for every struggle, the mas­ ter Of every fear,—W, L. Wntklnson.

From that common platform, all, together with one voice, w ill-make a single appeal to the American people. “These seven organizations have agreed by direction o f the Govern­ ment upon definite budgets and all are working under a general national committee upon which all are represented for a united war work cam­ paign to raise the sum o f $170,500,000. . “Enormous as that sum may be, the American people w ill raise it— generously arid gladly. . “When'one considers an army o f over 4,600,000; a navy that musters over 500,000 men in its service; the number.and size o f our camps; the buildings to be erected; the secretaries to be maintained; the equipment to be famished; the visitors’ houses to be built; the community service to be extended into every City an d to.wn o f the country; the protective work most necessary and vital for all our people, which this war has given to us as our share to maintain, one w ill see that the sum is none too great for this enormous task. ♦' “W e cannot shirk it. W e cannot shift it. To attempt to'do so would be to prove false to the men who are giving their bodies and their lives for our national safety. "“It is an American campaign. Its appeal is one that no American may refuse, and America’s answer will be another triumphant announce­ ment that w e are in this war as one people and as one nation to see it through to victory. “The entire Catholic body o f the country is organized to crown this campaign with victory. Every diocese has harnessed its own resources, will work with the state committees o f the United W ar (Work Campaign and give the utmost service.” UNTIEDWARWORK CAMPAIGN si. wiRJ.ftft. u.t'lifft.'u■ "i.'arjuTg.ggwr • , V .M .C .A ^ Y.W.C.A.
