SVC Making a Boy a mm1 CiizcU Wins-ton-Salem, a compound town of 25,000 population in North Carolina, lias a board of trade and so far as we know, new and that poseses at leattJ cne big, novel idea. In the old dayei when we used to have volunteer fire de partments, boys were given a sense o municipal responsibility and par ticipation la citizenship through conee-boy Drigaaes ana torcn com i panies which responded to flll nie calls and attempted to assist the firemen in their work of relief and protection. But Winston-Salem, has c nifi to bigger idea. This progressive Soutl.iern town is developing; the duties of citizenship in the coming generation by creating a boys' board of trade. And this is no toy enter prise; it is a live, acting! auxil iary to the city board ot trade. The boys between tie ages of 14 and 21 are eligible and are encour aged to become members. The mem bership fee is nominal, purposely so tnat every boy may Join.

EL SELLERS, Director of Even ing Department The Moody Bible Inatl tute of Chicago.) LESSON FOR JUNE 7 COMING OF THE KINGDOM. LESSON TEXT Luke 17:3ft-37. GOLDEN TEXT-"Lo, the Kingdom ot God la within you." Luke 17:21. I. The Kingdom Present, w. 20, 21 The Pharisees held some peculiar ideas about the coming of the king dom. Contrary to their ideas there are no special outward signs to herald its coming. The word "observation' v. 20, is an astronomical one and sug gests that the kingdom was to come with the biaid of trade, or who pew in a bodily shape from the sky, a cur- haps thinks he cannot afford such membership, can afford to let his be a member of the Junior hoard and is eager to secure mem bership for his son. Thhl father has learned that this affiliation gives- its son net only a sense of proprietorship in his city, a sense of responsibility cU citizen- nce a wholesome aspiration. Tie boy wants some day to be an influ ential member of the real board and hip. but It fixes upon him at to do the real work of! ani industri al citizen. Each boy who Join's (this boarj is rent expectation on the part of the Pharisees. In answer to the boastful Pharisees (v. 20) Jesus plainly told them that he himself Is the kingdom, and that that kingdom was in their midst or "among you," see (v. 21) margin. Their question was a flippant one, one of unbelief, and to it Jesus makes characteristically brief, but clear re ply, that partook of the nature of a rebuke. The kingdom would not come with trumpets and drum. They could not say, "Lo here! lo there!" in turn brought it to the attention of others.

The carping Pharisees with draw and Jesus speaks openly to his disciples of the days that will come, a time of persecution when they will long for comfort. Prophecy Fulfilled. II. The Visible Son of Man, w. 22-24. The kingdom in its outward form was rejected by the Jews, John 1:26. 27. In Its spiritual form It is now in the hearts of believers (Rom. 14:17), but he who was rejected with contempt will one day be sought after, though in vain, Matt 23:37-39. Dur ing the time of his absence many shall 4 years of age the right of speech, he right of attending all meetings,1 fact, every right of a regular, member of the board of trade excep that of the right to vote. To rive these boys a tangible Idta of the workaday life in which they! shall later bear their part, a group them, chosen from students In he department of government andi economics of the hlghl school, were et to the task of making an indus trial census of Win.ton-Salem. They received detailed schedules to fill out. After studying these schedules they visited every manufacturing plant in the city, gathering) data with painstaking care. From their ndustries was worked' out that reports, a statistical review cij the showed-totals for such elements as the number of these etsablishments, ! cIa,m to be crttt y- 23. but we their capital investments, the num ber of salaried employes andi travel ing salesmen and their salaries, the umber of wage earners and their wages, the co.t or raw material-. hie value of the finished products, and ether details which, taken to gether, gave not only the; boys, but the men of Winston-Salem a well, new and concrete conception of the weaJth and Jnduitry or their city. . , i But to the boys especially tuts are not to believe such claims. His tory has abundantly proved and ful filled this prophecy. When he really comes there will be a sudden publicity (v. 24), that shall flash from one cor ner to the other of the heavens. Matt 24:27; then "every eye shall behold him." "So shall the son of man be In his 4.y." This Instruction Jesus gives 1o his disciples. Men shall search for him, a time when he shall sot be present as he then was. After survey was an ispniartion. It made; the raise ones will come a day of realities ofi the text-book teachings revelation when the whole heavens about economics.

The Day of the Son of Man, w. 2547. Before that day comes, how ever, he must suffer and be rejected, hut following that rejection men will marry, carry on merchandising and merriment as in the days of Noah and those of Lot. In the days of Noah and of Lot there came a sudden halt In these activities and a Judgment of flood and fire, even no "after the same manner shall it be in the day that the eon of man is revealed," v. 80. This refers to the finality of events when the kingdom of God comes by way of Judgment Here Jesus sets his seal upon the truthfulness of these two events which preceded his first ad vent. If they be not true then he if a false teacher. Like as men dis credit those events they likewise would set aside his teaching about his sec ond advent Many claim that verse 31 refers to the destruction of Jeru salem; the context to us clearly dis proves any such Interpretation. Verses 32 and 83 muBt be taken to gether. Summary. Quite emphatically this passage Is a teaching on the subject of the coming of the kingdom of God. That kingdom came when Christ came In grace. It will come when he comes In Judgment It is coming constantly between the two advents. Remember bis reading of Isaiah's prophecy, Luke 4:18, is; cf. Isa. 61:1-9. In his first advent he did come to preach the ac ceptable year, the year of grac. That day-la stni with Us. In bit second advent he will proclaim the day of the Yenjeenee of God. - He will' establish the ' kingdom, will build the 'waate places and raise desolations. " Today the kingdom of God Is among us in power through the presence of Christ .by the spirit In the living church. ' . r To the Pharisees be said: - "Neither shall they say, lo here! Jo there I for the 'kingdom Is in your midst" To bis tftedyles be said: "They shall say lo there! la bare! xo sot away nor follow them." . We cannot localise the kingdom. On at ancient Syrian frag ment the words of Luke 1:13 read, "and to his kingdom there shall be no frontier." On the Hps of the1 Phari sees, kingdom meant a political er ganisation and empire.'. With' Jesus It means a ' spiritual realm universal In extent, rule of righteousness, and peace and Joy in the Holy Spirit vft be appears all will know. .Bttlfliil Astieboro, fl June 29-JuIy 5 c: Victor and his band.
