At Tent This Week Because of Building Program. Ahab, king of Israel, coveted Naboth's field, but Naboth would not trade it, so Jezebel, Ahab's wife, had Naboth ac cused of blasphemy against God and JUJlg, and he was stoned, aftcr which they took his field.. Job said: "If I rejoiced ' because ''my ;'He that 'withholdeth corn, the people wealth was great, and because mine shall curse him: but blessing shall be hand had gotten much... This also' were upon the head of him that selleth it .'. . an iniquity to be punished by the Judge: He that trusteth in his riches shall falljj for should have denied, that God is, uthrIghteou3allflourish.V above." Jesus told a parable of a man who hadf" 'ncnuired rreat riches and DroDOsed to' 1 take his ease, "eat, drink and be merry,' but that night he died and had no good of his riches . 'MEMORYERSEExodus 20:175, Jesus and Covetousness HIGHLIGHTS ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (The International Uniform Lesson on the above topic for Sept. 15 Is Exodus 20:17; I Kings 21:1-16; Job 31:16-25, 28; Prov erbs 11:23-28; Luke 12:13-21; 18:18-23; John 6:26-27; I Timothy 6:6-8; Hebrews 13:5, the Memory Verse being Exodus 20:17, "Thou shalt not covet.") Ey NEWMAN CAMPBELL "THOU SHALT not covet they neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor's." Covet means "to set the heart on" something which a friend or neighbor has which seems desir able to us and which we cannot legally possess. Children covet or envy another child's possessions, their pretty clothes, their toys. Older people look at a friend's beautiful new automobile or home and wish it was theirs. To train oneself to admire a friend's beautiful and desirable things, but not to be Jealous and envious, is truly Christian. Jesus shows us how lit tle material things mean to the person possessing them if one is not righteous. Such a person has thrown away his real happiness for lands, property, money, etc., and Is Indeed poor. Job, suffering many afflictions with which he was tried, ex claimed: "If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold. Thou art my confidence; if I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much; . . . This also were an Iniquity to be punished by the Judges: for I should have denied the God that Is above." The same Idea Is expressed in Proverbs 11: "He that withhold eth corn, the people shall curse him; but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it. . He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the righteous shall flourish as a branch." Wealth Itself Not Wicked It Is not the acquisition of wealth that Is wicked. The right eous man works to buy necessities for his family and to pay his debts, but when any man makes the acquiring of material things his god, he forgets the Maker, worshiping only these riches that he must leave behind when he dies, and neglecting his suffering fellowmen. Often he not only envies other men their posses sions, but may even take them away from him by unjust means. He Is sinful and the wealth he gains will do him no good only evil. The story Is told In I Kings of King Ahab who coveted a field that belonged to his neighbor, Naboth. He offered to trade an other field for the one he wanted, Distributed by King Features Syndicate. Inc. but Naboth said he had Inherited it and could not part with It, so Ahab threw himself down in a sulky fit and would not eat. His wife, learning what was the matter with him, concocted a diabolical scheme to get the field for him. She wrote letters to vari ous persons, sending them to In fluential people telling them to proclaim a fast, and to "set Na both on high among the people." When this was done two men would come forward and accuse Naboth of blasphemy against God and the king. Then the people would stone Naboth to death. All this dreadful scheme was carried out, and after poor Naboth's death Ahab and Jezebel took pos session of the field they coveted. The uselessness of wealth when It is made more important than anything else Is illustrated by Jesus in the parable of the man who had accumulated great stores of fruits and goods. What should he do? he asked himself, and de cided to build huge new barns to house his great harvests, then to sit back and take his ease. He would "eat, drink and be merry" all the rest of his life. God Requires His Soul But that night God came to him sayin.g "Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee; then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?" "So is he that layeth up treas ure for himself, and is not rich toward God," Jesus said. Once more we have in our les son the story of the rich young ruler who came to Jesus to ask what he should do to earn eternal life, and Jesus' answer that he should sell his wealth, gfve it to the poor, and follow Him. The man could not part frcm his pos sessions, which were many, so went sadly away. Again Jesus told the multitude that followed Him, "Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life." In a letter to Timothy, whom Paul loved, he wrote. "Godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing Into this wcrld, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be there with content." Wise is the per son who realizes that if he has a home, a few friends and loved ones, enough to pay his way and to share with others, he should be content and thankful to God and try to live as Jesus would have him. These are the real things of life. And finally, Paul, writing to the Hebrews, advised them, "Let your conversation be without covetous ness; and be content with such things as ye have' for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee."

Many a church is gelling $1,000 value out of a $10,000 organ, simply because they won't spend enough money to em ploy a good organist and maintain the instrument in good condition. We do the same thing with the houses we build. We scrimp, save, go into debt for a period of years to buy a nice house and furnish it. Then the family spends very little time in it. Try to find them in the daytime and they are either at work or play away from home. In the evening they crowd the picture shows, places of entertainment, the highways. Ask the minister who trys to make pastoral calls. He will tell you of .the small percent age of people he finds in these homes. The finer they are, the more difficult it is to find the occu- umnmi-mtum mini .

We do the same thing with the home itself. The home is an in stitution, not simply a house. Many a man has spared no expense which he could possibly afford, to secure the woman of his choice as his wife. Women are doing the same thing these days if we are to judge by the number of articles written telling women how to secure hus bands. Then they go to the mar-1 riage altar and think they will live happily everafter without doing anything much more about ii. They build a marriage then do little to maintain it. It is much harder to hold a marriage together happily than it is to make it. The nearest perfection we find in marriage, is a perfect willingness to "give and take." That is what too few married couples are willing to do. They are putting a 25c plant in a $1.00 hole. The same thing is done in a home when children come. I have been with many fathers and moth ers when the first child came. They j were willing to spare no expense for this first arival. The husband ; goes with his wife to the hospital for the first baby, feverishly paces up and down while she is in the delivery room, rejoices enthusiast ically when the baby arrives, then goes out to tell all of his friends about it. But when that baby grows up into a child who always craves first the companionship of his parents, they are busy at other things. Another case of a 25e plant in a $1.00 hole. j All of this doesn't make sense,' but most of us do it. The trouble is we don't stop to think. I Very few men who made vast profits out of the recent war favnr any investigation of such gains.
