SPENCER PEOPLE TO INVESTIGATE PRICES We notice where the four railroad brotherhoods at Spencer are arrang ing for a meeting in that town to look into the matter of general re duction in prices of family necessi ties, merchandise and especially fresh meats. They have a repre sentative working on the plan to re duce prices on all commodities, in cluding rents, When a fellow in Chapel Hill has to pay 30c a pound- for stew beef, 70c per pound for slicedboiled ham. or 60c per lb. for any kinfl of ham inthe markets, we think it is time to organize here and have these fresh meat prices inves tigated. The prices charged, here are as high or higher than war-time prices. What has become of all our organizations, looking for the better ment of the town? Living prices are extornate. No wonder board ing house people have to charge$35 and $40 per month for board. PAUL PREPARES FOR WORLD CONQUEST. LESSON TEXT—Acts 14:1; 18:5.

The Controversy in the Church at Antioch (vv. 1-5). This difficulty was a most serious one, for it threatened the disruption of the church into Jewish and Gentile divisions. The question was, “Shall Gentile con verts be required to keep the Mosaic law as a condition of salvation?” This issue was brought on by the coming of certain men from Jerusalem who declared, “Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved” (v. 1). The question was so difficult that Paul and Barnabas were unable to put them to silence. These Jewish legalists had the letter of the Scriptures on their side; they could point to the commandments where this was enjoined upon believers (Gen. 17:14). Paul could not point to any Scripture where it had been abro gated. If Paul could plead that Abra ham was justified before he was cir cumcised, his antagonist could say, “Yes, but aft^r justification the rite was divinely imposed.” The brethren at Antioch decided to refer the matter to the mother church at Jerusalem. Ac cordingly Paul and Barnabas and others were sent as a deputation to Jerusalem. II. The Deliberations of the Council (vv. 6-21). 1. Peter’s Speech (vv. 7-11). He argued that God had borne witness to His acceptance of the Gentiles by giv ing the Holy Spirit to them the same as unto the Jews. Since, therefore, God had not put a difference it would be folly for them to do so. God’s action in sending Peter unto them was the unanswerable proof that there was no distinction to be made. -2. Paul and Barnabas rehearse their experience (v. 12). They told how that God had set His seal of approval upon their preaching of salvation by grace through faith apart from works, by the working of signs and wonders through them. 3. The argument of James (vv. 14- 21). He took the fact declared by Peter and showed how It harmonized with the prophecy of Amos. He showed that the reception of the Gen tiles was not In conflict with God’s plan, but in strict- harmony there with. God’s plan for the ages is as follows: (1) Taking out from among the Gentiles a people for His name (v. 14). This is what is new going on —the calling out of the church. (2) Af,ter the church is completed and re- moved the Israelitish nation will be converted and restored to their land and privileges by the Lord himself at His return (vv. 16, 17). (3) Follow ing this will be the conversion of the world through the agency of con verted Israel (v. 17; cf- Rom. 11: 15). His judgment was that the Gen tiles should not be troubled with things that are Jewish, but should be warned against the perils of heathen ism, such as meat offered to idols- fornication, and ^lood. 111. The Decision (vv. 22-29). The mother church at Jerusalem came to a unanimous agreement and accepted the resolution offered by James. They not only sent a letter stating the decision of the conference, but took the wise- precaution to send influential men along with Paul and Barnabas to bear the same testimony by word of mouth. This letter de nied the authority of the Judaizing teachers (v. 24), and declared t^e method by which this decision had been reached (vv.' 25-27). IV. The Second Missionary Journey Begun (15:36; 16:5): 1. Contention over John Mark (vv. 36-41). Paul was suspicious of Mark Because of his desertion on the former journey. Barnabas took Mark and sailed to Cyprus. Paul chose Silas and went through Syria and Cilicia con firming the churches. The Lord thus overruled it to good, for it gave an opportunity for wider dissemination of the gospel. 2. Finding Timothy (16:1-5). This was at the very place where Paul on his first journey had endured cruel stoning. Timothy was with. Paul through much of his work ever after ward, a great blessing to him. 1 8 1 1 2 1 Substantial Reduction IN PRICES OF NISSEN WAGONS SEE WILLIAMS GROCERY CO. CARRBORO, N. C.

WELL DONE The State Board of Health expres ses gratification at the way people have obeyed the law making it obli gatory for parents, householders and guardians to report to the county quarantine officers diseases about which physicians have not been con sulted. “The people have heard the appeal of the State Board of Health, have accepted thier responsibility and are performing their duty well,” says the bulletin of the health de partment. The intelligent interest North Carolina people are showing in health matters is greatly to their credit, and wil operate to their decid- diseases has another side that is even more commendable. It shows the desire to protect other families which have not been invaded by the disease. No virtue is more to be commended than concern for the lights of others. The response of North Carolina people to this law is cry gratifying. JURY LIST FOR SEPTEMBER TERM OF ORANGE COURT. Chapel Hill Township: S H Hearne, 0 P Gooch. Robert Cannada, E T Neville.
