And that's iust what many did, with their heads under the covers. Xot a great deal unlike the girls in any respect, the boys sought out their co-ed sweethearts on this occasion which seemed to be the end of time, and for the first time found no barriers to the girls waiting, even though curfew had rung two hours prior. And a pretty sight they were. too. with co-eds resting their sobbing heads on the brave shoulders of their college "sweetie," and some seeking just any old shoulder that would offer comfort during this occasion which provoked a receptive mood to any type personality.

The splendid obedience of parents to their children has been pointed out as one of the remarkable developments of modern life. No, we have not made a mistake in writing or in typesetting. We mean just what we say?the obedience of parents to their children. In all too many homes God's order has been reversed and instead 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 need for cur lesson of today | is both great and acute. The future happiness of hundreds of thousands of children (Eph. 6:3) and the present welfare of thousands of neglected and boss-ridden parents will depend on the intelligence and faithfulness with which this lesson is taught in our churches, and the honesty of heart with which men and women study and receive its truth. I. The Command of God (Exod. ?0:12). The first and most important consiriorntinn In rnmp hr?fr?r*? ne ?<? convenient to nag at a careless child. Often we expect more of them than their age will justify. We are apt to punish them in a spirit of anger or revenge and thus to destroy the value of discipline. May God help us, who are parents, that we may take to heart this part of our lesson. Our children are our most valuable possession. % gKj. : < X what is the mind and will of the | Maker of us all regarding this mat- j ter of the relation between parents 1 and children? His words are plain? > we are to "honor" our fathers and our mothers. The word "honor" carries with it a great many things, but perhaps the three outstanding elements arc rt'DECt, obedience, and affection. We should look up to them with high regard, obey them as long as they have the authority over us, and show true affection for them. II. The Kxample of Jesus (Luke 2:4(1-52). The fact that Jesur. was God manifest in the flesh only enhances the glory His conduct. He who is divine presents r.n example of obedience and consideration both as boy and matt which we do well to emulate. 1. As a boy (Luke 2:4G-52). The Day Jesus, increasing "in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man." (\. 52) had come to His twelfth year and with Ilis parents had gone up to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover. There, moved in His heart the conviction that He must now be about Iiis Father's business?an altogether proper and commendable purpose but one which resulted for the moment in separation from His parents.. This was far more serious than a physical separation, for we read that they did not understand Him (v. 50). Tragic indeed are the consequences of our failure to understand our children. Notice, however, that Jesus did not withdraw Himself from their WfltcH O.^rfV r.nr rmifip tn nliov iltom even though they failed to understand Him. Equally tragic are the results of hasty and bitter separations brought about by the disobedience of children. 2. As a man (John 19:26, 27). The value of our lesson will be greatly reduced if we see only the responsibility of children while they are young. We are the children of our parents as long as we and they live. Being grown up and having a family of one s own does not relieve one of the precious responsibility of care for one's parents. Jesus was dying on the cross, Kis brethren apparently still regarded Him in unbelief, and His mother now needed a son to care for her. Even in His dying agony Jesus remembers to commit her to the care of His beloved disciple, John. One marvels at the carelessness and hardness of heart that will permit men and women who have time and money for everything else and yet will neglect their aged parents and even shunt them ofl into a public institution for care. Netice the promise that accompanies the command of God (Exod. 20:12; Eph. 6:3). If that is the reward of those who do right, what do you think will be the punishment of those who disobey God? III. The Admonition of Panl (Eph. 6:1-4). This matter of honoring and obeying parents "is right," says'Paul. It is the Lord's way. Only if parents command their children to do wickedness would there be ground for disobedience to parents. Apart from such circumstances every parent has the right to expect the child's obedience. There is tremendously important truth on the other side of the picture. Parents are not to provoke their children to anger, to disrespect or disobedience. How much we need God's grace at that point. It is so easy to say and do things that needlessly irritate our children. It is so iVATAUGA DEMOCRAT?EVER Mountaineers Blank Western Carolina 27-0 > r The Appalachian Mountaineers J, ran rcugitshod over the Western ^ Carolina Catamounts here Saturday and won the football 27-0. , Three teams which included near- q ly every ntan or. the Appalachian ,1 squad, saw action.
