A PRECIOUS BOATLOAD
WE have already considered
thfc writing of the four gos
pels. The date of (he first of them,
Mark, is about 61, arid Paul reach
ed Cqrinth ten years earlier, in 51.
Up to that time the
story of the life of
Jesus had been told
orally. No one felt
the need of a writ
ten biography ; no
one felt qualified to
write it. So it was
not with the gos
pels that the actual
writing of the New
iTestament began,
Ibut with the let-
Iter which Paul in
Bruce Barton T?1"1"
old church in Thes-
selonica, the Epistle . to the Thes
salonians. You will be interested
in the story.
Go back to the period before
Paul's arrival in Corinth, to his
crossing from old Troy to Europe.
He had seen a vision of a man of
Macedonia inviting him into Eu
rope, and he went. The little boat
that carried him and his three com
panions, Timothy, Silas and Luke,
.before the most precious freight
that ever landed on the western
shore of the Mediterranean. But
Paul did not meet the man of
Macedonia.. For a good while he
hadta hard time. As we have al
ready noted, he was beaten and
wmmi
i wu i
fightings and within were fears,"
When he arrived in Corinth he
was alone, having left Silas at
Berea, and Timothy at Thessalonica.
The weeks while he waited for
them to come to him were a period
in which Paul was very near to
nervous prostration. If it had not
been for Priscilla's good cooking
and the companionship which he
found with her and her husband
he might have broken down entire
ly. His whole work since coming
to Europe seemed a total failure;
it had brought only hardship and
humiliation.
He was afraid Timothy and Sil
as would never come. He was
afraid they would be mobbed lo
death. And if they came he feared
they would say: "It's no use. These
people just will not hear the good
news. In Philippi they say that if
they had us back in jail we would (
never get out. In Berea they are
ready to quote the Jewish law
against us and say that Jesus did
not measure up to the prophecies.
In Thessalonica we dared not go
on the streets in daylight. In
Athens your sermon is a joke."
So in his lonesomeness he con
jectured and was tortured by his
imagination. But one day two dus
ty travelers arrived in Corinth,
found the Ghetto, and there in
quired if a man was boarding some
where in town, a small, wiry, ner
vous man of defective sight, named
Paul. To 'their joy they learned
that he was staying with Aquila
imprisoned in Philippi, mobbed in; and Pricsilla; they hunted him up,

LARGER, BUT YOUNG
Pattern 8325 The frock sketched
is so smart and tailored in its sim
plicity that it looks just as nice on
the older woman as it does on the
young matron. It is youthful, at
tractive and comfortable.
The square line of the neck is
repeated in the clever squaring of
the line from neck to hem in front
and back. The skirt has just the
proper flare at the lower edge to
insure freedom of movement. The
sleeves are different in the way
they button over eblow the slashed
opening and the belt is cleverly
drawn through a slash in the front
and buckled in the back. Use a
printed cotton or a plain linen.
