Improved 1 SUNDAY International II SCHOOL LESSON-:- By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D. Os The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. Released by Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for August 4 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. JESUS AND THE SABBATH LESSON TEXT—Exodus 20:8; Mark 2:23-28; Matthew 12:9-13. MEMORY SELECTION—This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.—Psalm 118:24. "The Sabbath was made for man,” and was ordained of God for the good of man’s body and soul. It was intended to be a day of glad fellowship with the Lord. Since the Sabbath the seventh day was essentially one of rest and worship, the principles which surrounded it and directed its life may be applied to our day of rest, which is the first day of the week — the Lord’s day. That word “rest" sounds a little strange in this busy world of ours, and yet it is an important one. It means quiet for the struggling one, calm for the troubled, repose for the weary, cessation of labor for the worn-out one. God in his infinite wisdom saw that without rest man would soon destroy himself, and he made pro vision for one day in seven when labor should cease and man should be free for that recreation of soul and body which should fit him for the labor of the week. I. A Day of Holiness (Exod. 20:8). God gave his people a holy day to balance up their days of la bor and to bring blessing to their souls. On that day he decreed that they should come apart from their labors, turn from secular interests and turn their hearts and minds to the unseen and the eternal. Man would become so engrossed in the things of this world that he would soon forget; therefore, God com mands him to stop and worship. That should be sufficient to cause his people to “remember” the day “to keep it holy.” Notice that the day of rest was to be not only for the family, but also for servants and for visitors. The employer who unnecessarily operates his factory or office on Sun day violates this commandment. Note also that the man who is to rest on the seventh day is suppposed to work on the six days. Some neglect to do both. This matter of keeping the Lord’s day holy is one which has tremen dous implications in the lives of our children. Many men and women who have had txaflt into their own characters the stalwart virtues nur tured by family attendance at di vine worship have aot only forgotten their own contimAtag need, but are destroying the inSsrest of their chil dren in church attendance. It is serious eooagh to go astray in one’s own life, but to lead one’s children astray is an appalling re sponsibility. Let's keep the Lord’s day as a holy day. 11. A Day of Baipf ulness (Mark 2:23-28). The formalists at Christ’s day, the Pharisees, had ovwlooked the heart of God’s law and the holy living which it was intsaded to produce, and had bound up even the observ ance of the sabbath (which was in tended to be a day of rest and glad ness) in such a mass of technical “thou shalt not’s” that it was a day of fear. The accusations against the disci ples because they had taken and eaten grain was not on the ground that they had stolen, for the law (Deut. 23:25) guaranteed that right to the one who pawed through his neighbor’s field. Ths Pharisees con tended, however, that the disciples had worked on tha Sabbath in pick ing and hulling tha grain. God’s laws ara helpful laws, and it is only when men pervert them, or add to them their own traditions and interpretations, that they be come burdensome to anyone who is God-fearing and obedient. 111. A Day at Heading (Matt. 12: 9-13). Jesus made it clear that healing of the body (yea. and of the soul) was most appropriate on the Sab bath day; in fact, that is the very day for it. The healing o< the man with the withered arm revealed that back of the Pharisees' professed concern for the Sabbath was a real hatred for Christ. It is an appalling thing that in the house of worship on the very Sabbath day, these men, outwardly so religious, were plot ting against our Lord. Jesus cuts across human hypoc risy and hatred to declare that the true keeping of the Sabbath Is to do the work of God. No work of neces sity (like plucking the grain) or of mercy (like healing the withered arm) is ever out of place on the day of rest. A word of caution is needed, for some have sought to interpret this Scripture as providing biblical ground for doing all sorts of things on their day of rest. That day is for man’s good, not lor his destruo tion. His greatest good is served by rest, worship, spiritual develop ment, Christian fellowship, and the doing of deeds of necessity and mercy. The desev .ation of the Lord's day in our time is a serious matter. Let us not contribute to it THE BLACK MOUNTAIN NEWS Economical Milking Parlor for Farm Saving in Capital And Labor Costs Economy, both in initial cost and labor, is the chief attribute of the pen-type dairy barn with attached milking parlor used by many dairy men. It is particularly advantage ous when adding to the size of the herd. The cows are allowed to run loose in the barn and are milked and fed in an adjoining lean-to milking parlor. The total cost for materials of the lean-to shown in the sketch would be approximately S9OO, including a fire-resistant asphalt roll roofing and gypsum exterior walls. This will permit the farmer to qualify for producing Grade A milk. The six-stall parlor is large enough for a 30-cow herd. It does Increase the amount of bedding needed by nearly 50 per cent. This results in a corresponding increase in manure value. One of the maiun advantages of this type construction is that the herd may be added to without ex pense of new stanchions. Farm Safety Week to Stop Accident Gains Making life on the farm safer for children and adults is the basic aim of Farm Safety Week. President Truman, in proclaiming the week, July 21 to 27. suggested “that the Proper confinement for the bull may save lives. farm people of the country observe the week by resolving to eliminate at least one hazard a day until their farms are as safe as they can pos sibly make thtm.” Open wells, improperly fenced dangerous animals, ladders, danger ous parts of machinery unprotect ed, cluttered barnyards, all take toll of thousands of farm children and adults annually.

A.’s of the Carolinas, announced recently that arrangements are being made to obtain as soon as possible a trained Y. M. C. A. man for the town of Mayodan. For a number of years Wash ington Mills company of Mayodan has had under consideration the erection of a Y. M. C. A. building for the benefit of employes of the company and the citizens of that community and section. In 1940 preliminary plans were drawn for the building but these plans were necessarily deferred on account of the war. Since that time Washing ton Mills company has made sub stantial donations to the state Y. M. C. A., for the purpose of erect ing a building at Mayodan as soon as practicable.
