The Committee created much discussion and considerable criticism by, its ac­ tion in increasing postal rates, which have never been considered tax, but a service charge. Postal increases are, first class from 2c to 3c per ounce for local mail, air mail from 6c to 8c pep ounce; third class mail 100 per­ cent; money orders 6c to 22c increase per order, according to amount; reg­ istered mail from 6c to 85c per item, and COD charges doubled. “ OLD CEDARVILLE” (Continued from tint pegs) He w»# music f t m head to toe.

A t the1close there would be an evening fo r the public. The school-room would be crowded to cap- parity. One song is remembered all these 75 years “ On the Banks of the Old Mohawk.’’ So far as the writer knows there are’ not many singing-schools now, Those learning are at disadvantage because o f Radio Singers. So, parlor singing is not what it used to be. And piano-playing also has suffered. Much is lost in three ways: 1. Culture, 2. Entertainment, 3. making your children love their home. They will remember it through all the years; while the silent home is forgotten. ~As we have decided to discontinue farming, will sell at public sale, 4 'miles south o f Springfield, 1-2 mile, north of Hustead on the Yellow Springs pike, Route 68 on the Littleton Farm on FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10,1943 12 O’clock • 2 — HEAD OF HORSES — 2 Consisting o f - Bay team o f Geldings 9 yrs. old, wt. 1800, each, will work anywhere. 23— HEAD OF CATTLE — 23 Consisting of 5 cows carrying second or third calves and will be fresh by day of sale; 2 cows fresh in September; 2 cows fresh in Oct., 1 heifer to be fresh by day o f sale, 1 heifer will be fresh in March, 4 heifers 1 1-2 yrs. old, bred; 3 heifers 1 yr. old; 2 heif- ’ers 6 mo. old; Jersey bull, 1 yr. old and Red bull 1 yr. old. 22 — HEAD OF HOGS — 22 Consisting of 2 sows with 1st litter; 20 weanling pigs. .

JESUS BUSY WITH HIS MINISTRY OF LOVE lesson TEXT—Mark 1:3245. GOLDEN TEXT—I mutt work the works •ol hint1that-sent me, while it is day; the night cometh, when no man can work.— John 9:4. Jesus said that He “ must work the works of him that sent him” (John 9:4). And so we find Him go­ ing straightway about His Father’s business. It is a good example He has set for us. What He did and how He did it will give us many lessons which we may apply to our service. We can­ not dp exactly what He did, but in His power we may do mighty works. We find our Lord doing four im portant things— I. Healing (vv. 32-34). We will do well to include vferses 29-31 in our thinking, for there, we find Our Lord tenderly, sharing'the sorrow of the borne of a friend. One can picture the anxious hush that hovered over the home as distressed relatives ..and friends sought to al­ leviate the suffering of the one with a fever. They knew the possibility of a serious outcome of the illness. Many of us have gone through that dark valley. All at once there was new hope, and soon there was joy. Jesus had come and had brought healing. Many of us have also had that blessed experience,. , - Christianity is not a selfish faith, if it follows its Lord. We see in verses 32 to 34 that all the city came to His door with the diseased and demon-possessed, and He healed them all. , The account of the kindly and in telligent care of the sick is written large on the pages of the history of the Christian church. We do not have His divine touch of immediate healing, but we may have His com­ passion which served the multitude with tenderness and kindness. H. Praying (vv. 35-37). / - The Son of God sought out a place and a time for prayer communion with His Father. How often we who profess to 'follow Him fail to pray at all. Certainly we need the grace and power that prayer can bring far more than Jesus did. But, we say, we are so busy. So was He. We are tired. So was He. People will not let us alone. They also fol lowed Him. We make excuses, but we have no real reasons for our un­ fortunate delinquency. ■ . All men were seeking Him (v. 37), but still He took the needed time to pray. It has been said that “ if you are too busy to pray, you are busier than God ever' intended you to-be*” : ‘ % When His'disciples, wanted Him, they had to look for Him in the place of prayer? Christian workers and pastors, do people find us there? III. Preaching (vv. 38, 39). Jesus said, "Let us go . . . that I may preach . . . for therefore came I forth.” It bears repetition that while Jesus did many miracles (and not for a moment would we detract from their worth and glory), yet'He repeatedly, by .word and act, empha­ sized the,importance of preaching. Foolish though it may seem to the natural man (I Cor. 1:18-25), preach­ ing the gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit is now, as it has been through the centuries, God’s chosen means of accomplishing His pur­ pose. What a pity that churches and pastors are forsaking it for book reviews, dramas, sociaLhours, forums, -and what not! God give us a revival of great, humble, and fearless* preaching of the Word! IV. Cleansing (vv. 40-45). There is a sense in which the cleansing o f the leper was another act of healing, but leprosy is such a striking type of sin that the inci­ dent, calls for special consideration. Leprosy is like sin in that it is a destructive malady that pursues its insidious way without revealing itr true nature until it is far advanced! It renders a man unclean, loath* some to himself and dangerous to others. At least such it was In the days of our Lord. Was there then no hope for the. leper? Yes; Jesus had come. The smitten man cried out, “ If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.” And Jesus said, " I will . . . and he was cleansed.” So may the sinner be cleansed, for "whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved’ ’ (Rom. 10:13). He will not turn the vilest of men away, for He came “ to seek and to save that which was lost” (Luke 19:10). There is another important lesson here. The. man who was cleansed disobeyed the instructions of Jesus (v. 44), with the result that the Lord’s ministry in that place was greatly limited. We should obey the commands of God without question, and without any deviation from them. Disobedi­ ence* even though it be by reason of great joy and enthusiasm, results in confusion. Our Lord knows ex­ actly what should be’ done in a par­ ticular place at a certain time. When He guides, we should conform—for our own good and His glory.

WILLIAM B, McCALLISTER Judge o f the Probate Court, Greene County, Ohio, Passion Play In Springfield December 8-10 The mountain has come to Mahom- raot: Where once pilgrimages were made to Europe to behold one o f its several Passion Plays, now the world’s oldest and largest, the Luenen Passion Play has established itself in the South Dakota Black Hills rechristened "The Black Hills Passion Play” with its home base in Spearfish, South Dakota, This great drama with- all o f its old world splendor is being brought to Springfield, on its first American tour in English, and will be presented at evening and afternoon perform­ ances at the Memorial Hall starting Wednesday, December 8, and running through Friday, December 10. There, will be special matinees, with specially reduced prices. The great Passion Play was estab­ lished in its new home in the Black Hills in 1937. Here in the Great American Garden of Eden, steeped in the tradition of early frontier days in a land where General Custer, Deadwood Dick, Cal amity Jane, Wild Bill Hickok and many other early American historical names held sway and where the sweep­ ing terrain and Hie blue black pines reach toward.the heavens, where the dear, cool mountain streams abundant with trout, tinkle through the hillB, the largest Passion Play grounds in ihe world have been erected at a cost >f many thousands o f dollars. The orld-famous Passion Play is present­ ed three times a week, on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday during the sum­ mer months from June through Sept­ ember. The company o f more than five hun­ dred present the play against the back-ground o f mile-high Lookout Mountain, on a . stage which is an authenie reproduction o f Bibical days,, two thousand years ago. Supporting the large cast o f human players, to add authenticity to the many scenes, are beautiful Arabian horses, camels, donkeys, Great Dane dogs, and other domestic animals o f the period. The great drama opened its road season this year after breaking all- time attendance records in the largest cities throughout the East last sea­ son. Josef Meier, world famous Christus portrayer, is in the featured role. The Black Hills Passion Play was first presented in 1242 A. I)J by the Monks o f the Cappenburg Monastery. Later the good citizens o f . Luenen continued to present the play. . Meier, who plays the “ Christus” is the descendant o f seven generations o f Passion Play, artists. He first ap­ peared in the production at the age of ten weeks as the Christ Child and hi been in the play ever since. He is now 39 years o f age. One o f the most impressive features is the lighting effects, which have produced audible “ Ohs” and >“Ahs” from audiences all over the world. In scene after scene the special lighting effect shows the pale dawn blending into the brilliant light o f day, and then into the peaceful calm stillness o f night. The play confines itself to the last leven days o f Christ and is given in twenty-two impressive scenes, start­ ing with the triumphal entry to Jeru- CLIFTON UNIT®) PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH E. O.
