Tha BohavIbr o f Martha and Mary .When Jesus Was in the Home'(Luke ,10:38-42). * , * , The attitude of Martha and Mary toward Jesus was the same; they both laved. Him sincerely. ■’ 1., Jesus welcomed Into Martha’s home (v. 39), Though Jesus had no home .of His own, into this home He could come at any time and throw olf the restraints incident to a public min- iStry. How pleasant*It, Is to enter a, home where one can feel “at home’*! In Martha’s home Jesus was welcomed for what He was, not for wUat He might appear to be\ This home was His special retreat’in the’last days of His life on ’earth* A ,2. Mary sitting at Jesus’ feet' (v, 39). Though this was Martha’s home, her sister Mary lived with her. Mary . had a peculiar spiritual insight which prompted her to sit at Jesus’ feet and listen to His words. The re&l place, to hear Jesus’ word is at His feet Let no .one, imagine that Mary did, not render any service. ’ The little word “also” implies that she had taken -tier—tum-ut—service.—------ :--------- - -—<? 3.

He much prefers the love which concerns Itself with Him than for His. ■Because of her failure 'to perceive thin she Was “euipbered about much serving,” Her serving got on her nerves;.she became distracted, -In her distraction she hot .only found fault with Mary, but even Censured J&Sus for allowing Mary to sit wt His feet while the" dinner was 'hot finished,1' In order to *erv# Jesus without distraction.' ope must first sit at His feet and listen* to Hi# words. This gives personal poise. A Jegu*’ reply <vv. 42). (I) He rebuked Martha, tolling her that she' was cgreful and troubled about many things. Those who ate concerned with the Master are anxious for nothing (PhiL 4;6). The one thing needful for every life Is to alt at Jesus* feet The time tp. choose this place hr in the day of simshjne, (2) He commends Mary. “Mary‘hath chosen that good part which shall not be taken away1)' /Those pirn choose this good part can­ not be robbed of It by circumstances, friends, or foeS, if. Je*u*, the Obedient Son (Luke 2:51, 52), Although Jesus was conscious of His' deity and divine mission, Re rendered due obedience as a faithful son. Since He Was known as the carpenter’s sou. (Mattv>13:55), and the Carpenter (Mark 6:3), It is reasonable'.to sup­ pose that He assisted Joseph in his work as a carpenter, and after .Jo­ seph’s death He, as the eldest son of the family, continued with the trade to support the family. Indeed, tradi­ tion has It that soon after they found Him in the temple at the age of twelve, Joseph, died leaving the care of the family upon Hlm.’ The obedient child is really about his father’s bus- iheSss- when running errands for moth­ er in loving obedience to her request. ill. Timothy’* Homs Training (H Tim. 3:14,10). . \ This ia a picture of a real Christian home. From a child, that Is, a babe, ‘ Timothy was taught the Holy Scrip­ tures (v. 15), This teaching was not done la the Sunday school, but In the Home of his mother (11 Tim, 1:5). The Sunday school can never take the p^pce of hopm teaching, Timothy had a godly ancestry. His mother had the good sense to fill his mind with the word of God before It became pre­ occupied with other things. The rea­ son this is so important is because the Scriptures are God-breathed, and abie to make one wise. The wisdom which is obtained from the Scriptures leads' to Christ, the Only Savior, in whom alouejs salvation (Ac(s>4:l2).

TVashington, D. C,—In testifying be­ fore the Senate Committee on inter­ state Commerce In the general inves­ tigation Into the railroad situation, witnesses for the railroads contended that: . > * (1) The costs of operation are ab­ normal, owing chiefly to wage scales established by the government which exceed wages paid fur similar-work in other industries,* and to wasteful labor costs, often for work not done, en­ forced upon the railroad#-by the so called “National Agreements.” (2) That 07% cents out of every dollar of operating expenses in 1920 wore at prices fixed directly by the government, or by general market con­ ditions and over which -the railroad managements had'no Control, (3) That tiie general business de­ pression was not due to the high freight ‘rates, hut to the lack of buy- ihr botfi.here and abroad.
