SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
MAKING THE WORLD CHRISTION
(May be used in Missionary Applica
tions.) Golden Text The earth shall be full
of the knowledge of the Lord, as the
waters cover the sea. Isa. 11: 9.
Lesson Text Isa. 11: 1-10; Act. 1: 6-9.
(Read Esth. 4: 13-16; Ps. 32:12; Prov. 14:
34).
(1) And, there shall come forth a rod
(shoot) out of the stem (stock) of Jesse,
and a Branch shall grow out of his
fruit): (2) And the spirit (Spirit) of the
Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit
of wisdom and understanding, the spirit
of counsel and might, the spirit of
knowledge and of the fear of the Lord:
(3) And shall make him of quick un
derstanding (and his delight shall bat
In the fear of the Lord: and he shall
not Judge after the sight of his eyes,
neither reprove after the hearing of
his ears: (4) But with righteousness
shall he judge the poor, and reprove
with equity for the meek of the earth:
and he shall smite the earth with the
i rod of his mouth, and with the breath
: of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
(5) And righteousness shall be the gir
. die of his loins, and faithfulness the
girdle of his reins. (6) The (And the)
wolf also shall dwell with the lamb,
and the leopard shall lie down with the
kid; and the calf and the young lion
with the fatling together; and a little
child shall lead them. (7) And the cow
and the bear shall feed; their young
ones shall lie down together; and the
lion shall eat straw like the ox. (8) And
the suckling child shall play on the hole
of the asp, and the weaned child shall
put his hand on the cockatrice' (basil
isk's) den. (9) They shall not hurt nor
destroy in all my holy mountain: for
the earth shall be full of the knowledge
of the Lord, as the waters cover the
sea. (10) And in that day there shall
be a (it shall come to pass in that day,
that the) root of Jesse, which shall
stand (standeth) for an ensign of the
people; to it (peoples, unto him) shall
the Gentiles (nations) seek: and his rest
(resting place) shall be glorious. (6)
When they therefore (They therefore,
when they) were come to gether, they
asked of him, saying. Lord wolt (dost)
thou at this time restore again the
kingdom to Israel? (7) And ne said,
unto them. It is not for you to know
the times or the seasons, which the
Father hath put in (set within) his own
Dower (authority). (8) But ye snail re

-Ghost is come up on you: ana ye snail

Place. The whole earth.
Exposition I. The complete triumph
of Righteousness when God's King
Comes, Isa. 11: 1-10.
Probably those who assigned the title
of this lesson meant by it "Making the
"World Christian" in the present dis
pensation, and took the passage from
Isaiah as referring to the triumphs of
the gospel- However, if anyone will
study the passage carefully and com
pare it with other passages of Scripture
along the same line, he will see that
it describes the earth as it shall be
after the second coming of Christ in
connection with His reign here upon
earth. Our Lord Jesus was the "rod"
or rather "shoot" "out of the stock of
Jesse." The figure is of a tree cut down
and a new sprout coming out of it,
which shall become a tree. Jesse was
the father of David, and the family
as far as its outward manifestations
is concerned, was cut' down and was
no longer a stately tree; but by the
birth of Jesus of Nazareth of the virgin
Mary, who was a lineal descendant of
David, a new "shoot" sprang out of this
trunk and thus "a Branch" came "out
of his roots," and this "Branch out of
his roots shall bear fruit," when our
Lord comes back. In verses 2-5 we have
a wonderful description of this coming
King, the Messiah our -Lord Jesus. The
"Spirit of the Lord" shall rest upon
Him. The Spirit of the Lord' came
upon Hin at His baptism (Mat. 3: 16,
17), and He was thus "anointed" "with
the Holy Spirit and with power," and
thus obtained power for the work which
He was e&.lled upon to do (Ac. 10: 38, cf.
Jno. 1:33;. The phrases "The SDirit of
Wisdom and Understandine." "the Snirit
of Counsel and Might," and "the Spirit
of Knowledge and Fear of the Lord"
are three different names of the Holy
Spirit, setting forth different phases
of the Holy Spirit's work. The Holy
Spirit resting upon the Christ makes
.Him of quick understanding so that
His delight is in the fear of Jehovah.
Because of the Spirit of God resting
upon Him, the Messiah shall not judge
according to outward appearances nor
reprove people because of what He
nears aoout them: His judg
ment will be more just than that vice
vv ist-sL aim uest 01 eartniy mon-
circns. vvnen Jtie reigns the poor will
get their just rights. Poor men stand
attie chance today in human courts
but then their King and Judge will be
their defender. He will "reprove" the
oppressor and deliver "the mppk nf
me eartn "cf. Mat. 5:5; Jas- 5: 4. 6-81
TRIVIAL CAUSES
FOR ENDING LIFE
Twelve Thousand, Including
TV7 iLJU T7- 1 l t n
During Year.
New York. June 11. Divorces, con
gestea living conditions, and enactment
of the Eighteenth Amendment are giv
en as probable causes for the alarming
increase in the number of suicides in
1920, according to reports received by
officers of the Save-a-Life League with
offices in this city. Dr. F. L. Hoffman,
statistician of the organization, esti
mates tne number at not less than 12 -
L000. Of thesf. Tiroro
children, he said, the boys a'veraginng
15 years, the girls 16.
ReM. Harry Warren, president of
the league, also declares that restric
tions in sale of narcotic drugs helped
to swell the total of unfnrti
died by their own hands.
MANY TRIVIAL. CAUSES.
Dr. Warren cites manv trivial mhom
as the impelling force for suicide. One
man was distressed- because his new
suit did not have enough buttons on
the sleeves of the coat. Another man
rebelled at eatiner a lemon Tlifi Viis wife
had constructed out of turnips and glu.
cose. A youth killed himself because
he was asked to eat ham and eggs for
supper. A woman became morbid be
cause her husband refused to partake
of her clam chowder. A couple dis
puted over whether the bedroom win
dow should be opened an inch or not
less tnan two feet at night. The wife's
argument prevailed and the man killed
himself.
Many of the suicides reported wtre
among prosperous individuals, and Dr.
Hoffman argues that no one haslz rea
son can be assigned for the s.'iciual
increase.
METHODS OF CURE.
Dr. Warren believes it is possible to
cut down the growing number of sui
cides by making it more dicfifult for
adults ana children to obtain firearms
and deadly poisons. He urges that chil
dren be definitely instructed as to the
futility of taking one's own life.
The Save-a-Life league was founded
a few years ago to cope with the sui
cide problem. It offers the chance of!
encouragement, Dr. Warren says, to
persons in mental anguish who nav be
tottering on the brink of seif-destruc
tion.
Dr. Warren has three methods which
he says are of value .a loiching indi
vidual cases of world weary persons.
One is spiritual counsel, another calm
reasoning, and the third time.'y finan
cial assistance.
The principal thing, he says, is to
reach quickly the mentally tortured
and advise them to look on the brighter
side of life. He says he has found it
an eay matter to turn such persons to
lives of usefulness and profitable ser-

IN LONDON.
A crowd of friends wore at the pier
next day to see the trio off on their
adventures, and Gwenda felt a wrench
at her breast a she saw the kindly
faces beaming up at them from below,
as the boat slowly 3teamed away from
its moorings, hesitated for a moment,
then swung far out into the stream.
With a little sigh she turned to where
Fern stood, mopping her eyes with a
wispy 'handkerchief and smiling
through her tears. "Good old crowd,
isni it, Gwenny? And we'll miss ev
ery one of 'em, so we will, won't we?"
"Yes, indeed. They're true-blue and
I love them all," answered Gwenda.
"But come now. let's . eo and have a.
peek at our staterooms and get ac
quainted twith some of th stewards hfv-
fore luncheon."

On the eiffhth dflv thev lnnrtw1 in
Liverpool, and before nightfall of th
same uay uwenaa found herself in ono
of the cities of her dreams. A huge,
shadowy, vast city, that seemed to swal
low one in its maw as easily as breath
ing. Gwenda stood on the nlatfnnn
watching the British workmen walking
stolidly to and fro ahont their wnrt
and amusing herself by listening to
tne broad cockney accent to be heard
on every side. Red-cheeked, stolid men
were these. Far more sedate than
their American cousins at home.
Fedya worried out their luggage, in
time, and when they got into a taxi
and were whirled to the Cecil hotel.
Gwenda adored everything that she
saw, and was enchanted by the gayety
and crowds that they dashed through
from the station. "I can't believe that i
we are really here in London, Fern,"
she gasped to her cousin, who beamed
back the same sentiment in turn.
"And just to think that this is only
one of many wonderful cities that we
are going to see before we ire
through, dear girl," said Fern. "Oh, I
do think that I have the most gen
erous and adorable husband in the
world." Here she was promptly hug
ged by said husband.
Arrived at the Cecil, they rested,
then dressed for dinner. Fedya took
them to the Carlton grill, where they
reveled in everything from sparkling
wines to the over-pompous waiter who
served them. After dinner they went
to the theater, and from there to a
cosy little supper at Frascati's. It was
the most wonderful evening of Gwen
da's life, so she repeated over and
over again. The newness of everything,
the crowds, the music and the dazzling
loveliness of the English women's com
plexions were a source of amazement
to her.
"I see types here for a hundred nov
els," she breathed ecstatically to her
cousin, "and I know that I am goir.
to turn out some of my very best work
right here in London. Just wait till I
send my first stories to The News.
That's all I say!"

It's Easy
to Read the
Gas Meter
Do it every month. Know how much gas you use!
Check up on our Meter Readers!
Study this diagram, ignoring the small dial which is used
only for tests. From your last gas bill get the date on
which your meter was read last month. On the same day
of the current month do this: .
Look at the dials on the gas meter and reading from left
to right, put down the lowest of the two figures between
which the hands on the dials stand. On the dials shown
KierlAr,h?gure.i0HId be 516. Add to ciphers and you have
5l,b00. From this figure subtract the full meater reading
of the previous month, as shown on your last gas bill. The
result will be the "number of feet of gas used during the
month.
