Last fall a rumor was widely cir­ culated to the effect that the Board o f Education had “ quietly increased the salary o f Superintendent Furst $500 just before the opening o f school. This rumor is without any foundation what­ soever, The fact o f the matter is, that at Superintendent Fursts own written request, the Board reduced his salary $320.00. This rumor is again being circulated and in justice to all concerned we take this means o f publishing the facts. P. M. Gillilan, President, B. o f E. A . E. Richards, Clerk. MRS. J, B. RIFE BURNED EARLY THURSDAY MORNING Mrs. J. B. Rife suffered serious bums when she fell at her home ‘while carrying a lighted earn^e. She jwas in her night clothes and in al- 'mosfc an instant they were aflame. IShe was aided by her son, Cecil, who 'was in the house at the time, but he found it necessary to wrap his mother with rugs to smother the fire. In so doing Mr, Rife's clothing ignited and he received burns on the hands | land limbs. The burns on Mrs. Rife were confined mostly to her back. Due to a long illness Mrs. Rife was j not able to protect herself when she ! fell and had it 'not been that Cecil | was in the house at the time the re- | suit no doubt would have been more ] serious. . i MARY TURNER DEAD The Sewing Class o f the Cedarville Branch o f the Ohio Immergency School would appreciate the gift of some carpet strips or rugs, lamps, chairs and curtains.

Waatam Nawapapar Colon, ' - * Lesson fo r January 21 JESUS BEGINS HIS M1N18TRV * LESSON TEXT—Matthew 4:1*-*S, ' GOLDEN TEXT—From that tlma Jesus began to preach, and to say. Re­ pent: for the kingdom o f heaven is at haiid. Matthew 4:17. PRIMARY TOPIC—Jeeue Finds Some Helpers. • JUNIOR TOPIC—How Jesus Began ! Hie Work. < INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP- I IC—Jesua Begins His Life Work. ! YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—The Threefold Ministry o f Jesus. Matthew’s purpose was to present JesuB the Messiah as klug. Strictly speaking his official ministry began at his baptism. So far as his preaching was concerned the present lesson Is properly designated "Jesus Begins His Ministry." 1. The King His Own Herald (vv. 12-17). L The reason for this (v. 12). The news of the imprisonment of John the Baptist caused Jesus'to forsake Judea and go Into Galilee. The fate of John was accepted by Jesus as foreshadow­ ing bis own death. This was an act of prudeuce on his part When the people reject the truth and attempt to do violence to the messenger, there sbould be a turning from them unless specifically directed otherwise. 2. To whom the proclamation was made (vv, 13-16). It was to the peo­ ple at Capernaum in fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy (Isa 9:1, 2). This Is a section of the country most over­ run by the warring nations and there­ fore most exposed to the bllghtlpg ef­ fects of war. Thus we. see that the darkest and most corrupt of the prov­ inces was first In getting the light. In this we see a foreshadowing of the present' age when tbe gospel of the grace of God Is being preached to the Gentiles. It Is just like Jesus our Lord to extend his grace to the low­ est and most despised peoples. He came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. 3. His message (v. 17). “Repent: for the kingdom of heaven Is at hand.” This Is the same kingdom which John the Baptist and the Old Testament prophets proclaimed. It means the messianic earth rule of Jesus Christ. The time is coming when heralds will again announce the coming of the king­ dom and the King himself will come forth from the heavens to establish bis mediatorial kingdom. It Is for this we pray when we intelligently say "Thy kingdom come.” II. The King Calling to Himself As­ sistants (w . 18-22). L His command of authority (vv. 18, 19). He did not try to persuade them by the use of arguments but is­ sued a mandate. To command is the, prerogative of a kYng. 2. The station of the servants called (vv. 18, 21). They were men of lowly birth and occupation—fisher­ men. These men were busily engaged In service when the Lord Issued the call. 3. To what they were called (v. 19). They were called to definite service. “1 will make you fishers of men.” He had previously called them to be disciples'(John 1:36-42). He now called them to service. The qualities which made for goad fishers of fish - patience, bravery to face the storm and the night, the perseverance which toiled all night though no fish were caught—would make them good fishers of men, 4. Their prompt Obedience (vv. 20, 22). They put their trust In him who called, believing that he was able to supply their needs. When the king commands there Is no time for delay.. •III. The King’s Triumphant Prog­ ress. (vv. 23-25). He went the whole rounds of Galilee teaching the Scriptures, preaching the gospel of tbe kingdom and healing all manner o f diseases. He did a three­ fold work. 1. Teaching the Scriptures In the synagogues (v. 23). The revelation of God needed to be explained. This Is what he Was doing in Nazareth (Luke 4:16-22). Such Is the primary busi­ ness of every Sunday school teacher and minister. 2, Preaching the glad tidings of the kingdom (r. 23), The king who was then present and was heralding his own mission, was ready to estab­ lish his kingdoms if they had been willing to receive him. 8. Healing all iranner of diseases (vv, 23-25). There was no form of disease which he could not cure, and bo abundant was his success that “ his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those’ which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunntlck, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.”' The Great Secret To. the man without faith the uni­ verse seems to be a gigantic,' merci­ less, grinding machine, but to us who have learned the secret of the Lord it Is our Father’s House, in which not a sparrow falls to the ground without his notice. ______ _______ Hold Fast the Faith Trust and confidence must be exer­ cised where there Is silence and dark­ ness. We must hold fast the faith that truest love Inspires all discipline; and justice, mingled with mercy, rules NOTICE OF APPOINTMENT Estate of Hulda J, Wilson, deceased.
