With these qualities, it is very seldom a Virgo person sinks into degradation and vice, acgardless'of their adverse circumstances o r early unfavorable eimronm’ent. Mer­ cury, the ruling planet o f this.sign, gives to its subjects much w it and very ingenious minds. These people have a. cool, confident hear­ ing, are inclined to be exclusive, and are always very discriminating In the selection o f their friends and companions, V irgo people are adapted fo r either a mercantile or professional life. They display much tact and cleverness in their commercial un­ dertakings as well as professional callings, th e y make exception­ ally fine authors, because o f their' great ^nSdght into human nature. The most profound faults of'these people are selfishness, self­ gratification and pride, which often makes them envious and rti?a- greeafile.

L esson t e x t —Fan. GOLDEN TEXT—*T e»n do nil thlncs through Christ which utrcngthenath me."—Ph». 4;13. PRIMARY TOPIC—Paul and HU Friends, JUNIOR TOPIC—Paul Pressing Tp* ward the Goal. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIORTOP­ IC—Choosing the .Rest Things. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—The Christian's Goat ■= The contents of the epistle may be summarized ns follows; 1. Salutation (l;l-2 ). 2. Thanksgiving and prayer In which ho shows his loving Interest in them (1:3-11.) 3- Triumph of the gospel Ip spite of opposition (1:12-26). 4. Duties enjoined (1:27-2:18). 5. Paul’s promise to send Timothy and Epaphrodltus (2?19-30)« C. Exhortations and warnings (3:1- 4:1). ' ' . ' , • 7, Renewed appeal for unity (4:2-9), 8. Personal matters (4:10-23). The essential message of Philip- plans Is a revelation of the mlndSvktch should dominate the Christian. 1. All Things Loss for Christ (8:7-9), The occasion for this remarkable declaration was the claim of the Judalzing teachers for legal righteous­ ness. In chapter 3:4-6 he enumerates the grounds upon which he had a right to base his claims for legal righteousness. 1. “Circumcised the eighth day,” In keeping with the demands of the law. 2. “Of the stock of Israel," related by blood and birth. 3. “Tribe of Benjamin." from which the first king was chosen, and which always remained loyal to the nation, 4. “An Ilebrew of the Hebrews," In contrast with some of mixed, parent­ age. . . .. "■ 5. “Touching the law, a'Pharisee," the sect most- zealous for the ritual of Judaism. 6. “Concerning seal, persecuting the 'church.” A passionate effort to crush the church. 7. “Touching the . righteousness which Is In' the law, blameless,” ns to the condition of life demanded by the law. All of these, valuable In themselves, When placed alongside of the excel­ lency of the knowledge of Christ were abandoned for a better tiling. The vision of Christ gave him the true perspective of values. In ‘ this tight he saw- the utter worthlessness of these things. After some thirty years of such trials and sufferings as per­ haps no other human being ever knew, he has no regrets, and .still counts them as refuse in comparison with what he had gained In Christ- II. Paul’s Present Desire (vv. 10-11). 1. “That l May Know Him.” Personal acquaintance with the Lord was Ills supreme1desire- To know tho saving grace of Christ Is good, hut to know Christ Is Infinitely bet­ ter. 2. “The Potver of His Resurrection.” This is an advance thought over personal acquaintance. It Is the ex­ pression of the life of Christ through the npostle. It is the power you gain to overcome, the mastery over sin and self. 3. "Fellowship of His Sufferings," Not only Identified with Christ in Els sufferings by Imputation, but that lie might fill up that which Is behind of tho afflictions of Christ (Col. 1 :24). 4. “Attain Unto the Resurrection of the Dead" (v. II). This wilt he accomplished when tho Lord comes (I Thess. 4:10-17). III. Pressing Toward.the Goal (vv. 12-16). . Paul clearly grasped the meaning of his perfection In Christ, yet ho was keenly conscious of his personal limi­ tations. Herein Is expressed the true law of progress In the spiritual life. L Conscious of Limitations (v. 121 Tho first step towards progress Is to bo profoundly dissatisfied with personal attainments. No Intellectual advancement Is ever made by those who think they know enough, who are satisfied with what they have. 2, Conscious of a Transcendent Goal (t. 13). The Christian life Is an upward call* tng. 3, A Resolute Determination to Reach the Goal (v. 14). He declares, “This one thing I do."’ IV. The Right ) Occupation of tho Mini (eb 4:1-8) The ideal controls the man. "As a man thlnketli In Ills heart, so Is he.” When once the mind Is guarded and controlled by the peace of God, it will dwell upon spiritual things.

Perhaps he may jot down a ' note now and then ot an important leal, hut this la of no value In uti malysls of hla business as a whole. No other industry, however small, is carried pn without books ot Borne sort.* Farming is a business and to be successful must bo conducted In a businesslike way. The business man'3 mind should have indelibly printed upon It two questions: What profit Is my business making? How cgn that profit he increased? To know the lat­ ter, one must find out the former; and to find out about profits requires the keeping of books. It Is not necessary for a farmer to have a course in bookkeeping. Al­ most every agricultural college In the country has issued a simplified farm accounting hook which. It sells .at cost, and only a few minute3 .are required each day to jot down the day’s hap­ penings, Accounts’Increase Profits Instances dumber a thousandfold where farmers have profited by know­ ing their business. Accounts kept by nineteen farmers In Illinois led them to improve the organization and oper atlon of their farms In ways that add­ ed approximately $050 to their aver­ age net income In 1922, the seventh year they had kept accounts. An Iowa farmer found at the end of the first year he kept hooks that crops fed to livestock brought more money thau when sold outright. Hls figures •showed that his cows wore poor: , compared with other farms in the state,, he found the number of acres cultivated per man on. his farm, as well as the number of acres per horso, were below average. Ho rented more land and replanned his fields, so that the '.crop areas per man and horse were increased. He sold some of hls scrubs and bought -good co^s, The second year his income from the farm, after paying ati -expenses and interest on the money invested, bad been increased over S3S0. Costs Can Be Regulated "1 have discovered.” says cue farm bookkeeper, “ that tho kind of. man you have on a job. as well.as tho< particular team, often makes quite a variation in the cost of performing certain tasks. I have learned from the pages of my book that if I could have Increased the yield of my wheal field by two bushels *^nd my corn by Uve bushels l would have realized a substantial profit from them." While tile f.irmefs may not he able to fix prices on their product^, they do have a voice la determining the .costs Of production. To reduce this cost they must first know what the costa are. - The number of farmers who are keeping books on their business bno increased remarkably In recent years, but the numhef of businesslike farm­ ers Is woefully small when listed alongside the sum, total of the farm ers in the country Inventory It Indispensable The basis of any system of farm ac­ counting Is the annual property list or inventory. It is the starting point of the farm records. One must take into consideration decreased or in­ creases In the value of all property owned to gauge the progress of the business. Lacking facts as to the value of hls property, no business man can form an accurate estimate of how he stands financially, increased cash may be due to property which was sold, or increased debts may be due to Improvements made. If a farmer Is falling behind, the Inventory will emphasize this fact. Often when a man Is discouraged and thinks he Is making no progress, hls inventories will tell him that he Is better off than he thought. At the end of each year a financial statement Is drawn off. This Is the farmer's rating and uo farmer with a good financial statement need fear walking into a bank and asking for a loan.
