LESSON TEXT Matthew sx.
17-SS.
GOLDEN TEXT?The Son of
man came not to be ministered
unto, hut to minister, and to give
his life a ransom for many.?
Matthew xx, 28.
Metsago of the Lesson
What a disappointment it must
have been to Jesus that His Disciples
should have failed to understand
thai the road to eminence m
his service lay along the way of lowly
duty. For almost three years by precept
and example He had. endeavored
to make this clear to them. Now after
ail the had witnessed with their
". >vri eye.-., and heard with their own
ears, of the tender gracious ministry
of Jesus. Salome came with her two
sons, the well-beloved John and
James, and requested that they might
sit. the one on the right-hand and the
other on the left, in His kingdom.

James and John certainly had forgot- .
tea the lesson that Jesus taught them ,
while at Capernaum that "if any man ,
woo.Ul be first, he shall be last of all, |
and servant of all." Now on his way ,
to Jerusalem, and it was thought that .
His purpose in going there was to set' \
| up Ilib kingdom, they, Jaroes ar.d ,
j ,1'ohn, evidently thought, by getting ,
ahead of the other Disciples, there
j would hi* better chances for thesn to j
i secure the prominent offices in
; His kingdom. It is so easy to set
j our hearts on a goal and to overlook
the thorny road that leads to it. The
selfish -wish to shine above others is:
i poor and miserable. But the Christ;
| crossed both?Whosoever will bej
chief among you, let him be your
I servant, the, hi;ri> plapes so often {
j ought, as was the case with these .
j Disciples, Jesus made it plain that
the high places in the kingdom were
: not given, but acquired through hum-j
ble service.
The Price of High Position
Can we say thai these men were JI
i prepared to pay the price? Thai altogether
depends on how far they follow
.ho King in living out the spirit
of the kingdom. The final test of
I fitness for high position in the king:
dorti is determined by a willingness
id suffer, if need be. Paul wrote:
"If we suffer with Him, we shall also I .
eign with him. "Are ye able, said'

ing on the lower plane succeeded in
grasping the rope ladder hanging
from the upper one. But as the upper
plane swung clear of the lower
one, Ilundertmark was unable to
grasp the next rung of the ladder.
The pilot of the airplane didf not
dare attempt a landing for fear of
crushing the acrobat. To induce him
to drop, the police stretched a canvas
sheet, butThen it became apparent
that the acrobat's hand was entangled
in the ladder.
After trying to help Hundertmark
by flying as low as possible, the pilot
decided to take a c hance on landing.
He reduced his speed as low as he
could, but the acrobat, dragged over
a iong stretch'of the field, was
picked up unconscious and died in a
hospital soon after.
