JUNIOR TOPlC—Timothy. Paul's Helper. INTERMEDIATE ANp BENIOH TOP lO—Timothy Trained to Serve YOUNO ANP ADI!LT TOPIC —The Christian Ministry ae a I .Me Work. I. Timothy's Parentage (Arts 16:1). His father wan a Greek and hie mother a believing Jewess. On hie mother's aide at least, he had a godly ancestry. Usually the mother makes the Bon. Two generations of maternal pious grandmothers Kere back of Timothy, How thankful we ought to be to (Jud for a godly ancestry. Christian heredity and training con stitute the essential elements for a Christian life. 11. Timothy's TVaining (II Tim. 1:5; U 'llm. 3:14-15). Ills wise and faithful mother and grandmother carefully nurtured lilm in God's Word. lie knew the Scrip tures from hia childhood through their training. The faith which came to lilm from his grandmother through bis mother did not come through the laws of heredity, hut through careful train ing and teaching. Grace Is not reu aoned hy the la>v« of lieredlty. The factors Involved In his training were godly ancestors, ■ Christian home, and a diligent study of the Scriptures. 111. Timothy's Call (Acts 10:1-8). While on Paul's second missionary Journey In company with Silas, Tliu otliy was found at l.ystra near l)erl>e. Perhaps lie had heen converted on Paul's Aral missionary Journey, but hearing a favorable report of liliu by the brethren, Paul took and clrcuiu - cieed him so as not 'to offend the Jews, because his futher was a Greek. Tills was not .contrary to the decision of the Jerusalem council. It was a case where conciliation could be made without .compromise of truth. From this time to the end of Paul's life, be and Timothy were boon companions. They were as a loving father and e dutiful s»n. IV. Tlmothv'e Character Qetlcei*. 1. Of a Retiring Disposition. II Tim. 1 :C. Timothy bad received a gift from Cod at the hands of the apostle, but It needed to be stirred up, that le, fanned Into a flame. Such a tempera ment would mature In touch with e great personality like Paul. It Is high ly Important that everyone store up the gift which God has given unto him. 2. Courageous. II Timothy 2:1-8. Having b'een stirred up, be was freed from the spirit of fear and deliberately Identified himself with Paul In hie, sufferings and trial. Courage Is great ly needed In doing the Lord's work. | 8. Faithful. He tarried In the dlA cult field of Epliesus through many j years. He was the only man of the needed fidelity to mini at er to the Phil ippine. (Phlllppians 2:20). The so cret of his faithfulness In such e poal tloa was hie fidelity to the Word at Go* V. Timothy's Minletry. L As e fellow-inlaelonary With PauL (Ph* 2:22). 2. Ae paetor of a church at Epheeua.

Mr. Hol liday has arranged exhiits from Mar tin and eastern counties that will eclipse anything of its kind before shown. The ladies of the woman's depart ment won't talk much to tse publicity agent; wait until the fair opens; we profise hat all apace ia the Jtoavtiful woman's building will be filled to over flowing with things that the ladies like to see in a show of this kiad.
