International Sunday School Lesson for SEPT. 13, 1964 (TImw roannat are baaed aa the Interaatkmal 8. 8. Umo Owtliaea, copy-righted b; Um htorutlMtl OdwmII of BiMfjf Bdacatloa, USA. eai Mi by ir .) A SPOKESMAN FOR GOD Memory Selection: "Trust in the Lord Willi aO thine heart; and let not unto thine own under Btandtaw. In all thy ways acknow ledge him, and ha shall direct thy path" (Proverbs 3: 5-) Lesson Text: 1 Samuel 1-7. In keeping with the thema of our present unit "God Stands by His People" the emphasis of our study continues to be upon God's work through human instru ments. In our lesson for today, we see how a praying mother and an aged priest became God's instruments through whom Israel was given a leader whose ministry was to have far-reaching effects on the destiny of that nation. The meeting of the venerable Eli and Hannah took place in the temple, where Hannah was pray ing to God, voicing her deep yearn ing for a son. Blessed and com forted by Eli, Hannah returned to her home in the country, where she continued to pray for her heart's desire, promising that if her wish were granted, she would dedicate the son's life to service in the Master's cause. And, when, in due course, Han nah's prayers were answered, when the child became of age, she fulfilled her promise to the Lord. Taken to the temple, and put under the care of Eli, the child Samuel waxed strong and good in the eyes of God and of the populace. He ruled as a judge over the people, TE-l fr r wrrwifw I JMXT-tVaI rJ. I n . 7: . a i i i ,, Vr jrm mm WM I I ;iftf . . mm mm MjVf SN 23 YEARS!

He waa an active religious leader of his leu ii aa a result of his earW re ligious training and background. Looking deeper into the we are studying, we see that the good exercised by Samuel's life on earth had Its beginnings In hu home life. A loving, dedicated, deeply religious woman, Hannah saw in her son a wonderful gift from God, to be loved and cherish ed mightily a precious vessel entrusted in her care until such time as God called him to serve His devine purposes. This fact is illustrated by the fact that, in ac cordance with her promise before the child was born, she took him to the temple when he oecame of suitable age. . . .there to receive further religious instruction. There was nothing grasping, or greedy, or self-seeking in Han nah's concept of motherhood. Herein can lie a lesson for all parents and for all children who will one day become parents. In homes where parents are in different to their own spiritual needs, and to those of their chil dren, delinquency and crime have B fertile breeding ground. But where the church plays an active part in family life there, in (those homes, are found the stu dents for the ministry, the evan gelists and missionaries ... the Samuels of our times, with his propensities for good, to be dedi cated to a needy world. The influence of religion on the life of a nation is aptly illustrated by the life of Samuel. Circum stances, it is true, may be vastly different today from those that Misted in Biblical times. But, es sentially, the lesson remains the same. For it is into the world of men and their needs that me re- ligious homes 3nd the houses of men and their needs that the re God eend their sons and daughters 1 MARSHALL, N. C DIMES OF ASCS COMMITTEEMEN The farmer-committee system of administering farm proa fame has been in effect for 81 yean, ac cording to Ralph W. Ramsey, man agar of the Madison ASCS county office. During these years, these farmer-elected committee men have had a large variety of duties Their prime responsibilities have been the conservation and produc tion adjustment programs. Through the sound work of county and com in unity committeemen, many coun ty farm problems have been and are now being solved. This system of administering action farm program baa proved highly effective. It gives the rea' farmer an opportunity to partici pate in both the formulation and administration of needed pro grams. These on-the-spot com mitteemen play vital roles in keep ing the programs keyed to the needs of local farmers. Ramsey stated that election oi these community committeemen u now in progress. Ballots wert mailed to all known eligible voters on August 31 and are to be re turned to the county ASCS office not later than Friday, Sept. 11 Farmers who did not receive s ballot may call at the ASCS of- to do the Lord's work. As individual Christians we can truly learn from the story of Samuel. We must realize, from our lesson today, as well as others previously studied, that God will always call forth men with the qualities of leadership when his children are sorely in need tff such a man. And we cannot fail to have noticed that He works with what ever he has at hand to accomplish his goals saints or sinners, we can all serve the Lord in even the can an seive uic humblest capacity if we but listen for his call. 1 PHILLIP BALL is the Repub lican nominee for constable of Precinct 15 (Mars HiU) in the No vember 8 general lection.

In conclusion, Ramsey says that we should leave no stone unturned in getting all farmers to vote in these elections. By getting a high percentage of farmers voting, we can be assured of the good, active committeemen needed to guide the programs in the coming year.
