Improved | SUNDAY International I SCHOOL •> LESSON By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D. Os The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. Released by Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for August 11 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council o£ Religious Education; used by permission. JESUS AND HOME RELATIONSHIPS LESSON TEXT—Exodus 20:12; Mark 7:9-13; Luke 2:51, 52; Ephesians 6:1-4. MEMORY SELECTION—Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.—Exodus 20:12. Home—that place so dear to the heart of each one of us —is even more precious in the sight of God. He is concerned about our homes and those who live in them. Right relationship between chil dren and parents have much to do with the peace and prosperity of a community and a nation. Experi ence has demonstrated that to be true, but even more basic is the fact that it is in accord with the promise of God. One of the sad breakdowns in modern life is that of proper honor and obedience to parents by chil dren. In all too many homes God’s order has been reversed and in stead of honoring and obeying their parents, children (both young and old) have taken the place of “boss,” and mother and father must obey if they want peace and rest. The problem of juvenile delin quency, or perhaps we should say more correctly, parental delinquen cy, is right on our doorsteps now. That means that the need for our lesson is both great and acute. The future happiness of hundreds of thousands of children and the pres ent welfare of thousands of neglect ed and boss-ridden parents will de pend on the intelligence and faith fulness with which this lesson is taught in our churches, and the hon esty of heart with which we all re ceive its truth. I. The Responsibility Stated (Exod. 20:12). “Honor thy father and thy moth er”—how good, and substantial, and right those words sound. We are told by Paul that this is the “first commandment with prom ise” (Eph. 6:1-3). The Lord was not making a bargain with man, or seeking to draw out obedience by a prize, but there is obviously a great reward in the observing of this com mandment. Then too as the children of God (if we are such) through Jesus Christ, the first and most important consideration to come before us is, What is the mind and will of the Maker of us all regarding this mat ter of the relationship between par ents and children? His words are plain: we are to “honor” our fa thers and our mothers. The word “honor” carries with it a great many things, but per haps the three outstanding elements are respect, obedience and affection. But men do not wish to follow God’s direction, so we see next 11. The Responsibility Evaded (Mark 7:9-13). Such an important commandment naturally held a high place in the thinking of the community. To vio late it involved a measure of shame which men sought to avoid. So the Jews of Christ’s day devised a scheme which made it possible for a man to appear to be very religious even as he deprived his parents of the honor and help to which they were entitled by the law of God. The man who did not wish to sup port his aged and needy parents could entirely evade that God-given responsibility by declaring that his property was “Corban”; that is, dedicated by a vow to God. There after no matter how great was the need of his parents they could re ceive nothing, and yet he could keep it and use it for himself. Thus do men make “the word of God of none effect” (v. 13) through their traditions. The method differs but the spirit persists even in our day. Jesus made short work of such trickery and evasion. He declared their man-made creeds and tradi tions to be simply a means of mak ing the command of God of none effect. Once more he condemns that formal religious observance which serves as a cloak for sin and selfishness. IU. The Responsibility Fulfilled (Luke 2:51-52; Eph. 6:1-4). The manner in which children should be obedieijjt to their parents and honor them in the home is beau tifully exemplified in the life of our Lord, living as a boy in Nazareth. In the home the growing youth finds the best place for normal, well rounded development (v. 52). There it no substitute for the home. The words of the Holy Spirit through Paul in Ephesians 6:1-4 stress the same truth and enlarge upon it. This matter of honoring and obey ing parents ”is right,” says Paul. It is the Lord’s way, but it is also that which commends itself to ev ery right-thinking person. There is tremendously important truth on the other side of the pic ture. Parents are not to provoke their children to anger, to disre spect or disobedience. May God help us who are parents that we may take to heart this part of our laeeon. Our children »re our most valuable possession. THE BLACK MOUNTAIN NEWS Electrical Drying Soft Corn Practical Ohio Farmer Develops Own Economical System The problem of drying soft corn is not the difficult chore it once was, according to farmers who have experimented successfully with fan-operated, forced air sys tems installed in their own cribs. Heat is not an essential factor in most installations, particularly when drying operations are conducted in the fall or early spring. The dan ger in cribbing immature corn is that it may spoil before cold weath er arrives to restrain spoilage proc esses during the winter, or mold during the first few warm spring days. Forced air drying is practical and economical without heat in temper atures as low as 50 degrees. High er temperatures, however, speed up and cut costs of drying opera tions. Karl Mohr, Ohio farmer, for example, reported having spent $lO for electricity to crib-dry 60 tons of immature corn by forcing air through it for 100 continuous hours during a period when daytime tem perature reached 80 degrees. Mohr’s drying arrangement is typical of workable, successful types which farmers can install :■ vPI’"V ' %'■ ■ Karl Mohr is shown watching his electrically-driven fan force moisture - removing air from a crib of immature corn. themselves. His 35 by 10-foot, tight sided crib has a slatted floor, with 114 by 2-inch slats installed edge wise and spaced five-eighths of an inch apart. A 42-inch fan, driven by a 5-horsepower motor, blows air into a closed tunnel extending under the entire crib. Air, forced under the crib, moves up naturally through the slatted floor and out vents in the top of the crib, taking excessive moisture with it. Small er fans and motors will work just as well with less extensive drying operations. Mohr’s crib vents serve a double purpose. In addition to being ex hausts for air, they also serve as openings into which corn is elevat ed for storage in the crib. Farm Made Wheelbarrow Six pieces of scrap pipe, a few lengths of scrap iron, a standard rubber tired wheel, and a few min utes use of arc welder will produce this handy wheelbarrow for the farm. Short pipe sections fused to the front end of the pipe frame and handle members made ideal bear ings for the wheel axle. Know Your Breed Polled Hereford By W. J. DRYDEN Since 1902 American cattlemen have developed within the Hereford, a naturally hornless strain the Polled Hereford. Since the early work done b.v Benjamin Tom kins in 1742, with English oxen, the breed is now classed as one of the greatest of beef cattle. There are now some 200,000 on the official records. When original horn less bulls are mated with registered horned Hereford cows, about half the resulting calves are hornless. First known exhibit of hornless cat tle was at Omaha fair in 1898. To day they take a leading part in ev ery fair or show entered. Vaccinate for Control Os Sleeping Sickness Horses should be vaccinated in areas where sleeping sickness has been a problem in recent years. It is believed that the virus of the disease is carried over from year to year by birds, and it has also been found that chickens can harbor the virus, according to the Amer ican Foundation for Animal Health. Mosquitoes and other blood-suck ing insects pass the virus mi te the horses and human beings. DEW DROPS 0 When the Bible says a man can’t serve two masters, does that mean he can’t have two wives ?
