SCHOOL LESSON
From

“IN ALL THY WAYS”
The word “insecurity” has
come to characterize one aspect
of modern life that humanity is
facing with increased concern.
Insecurity in employment, in
family relationships, in national
and international affairs—all of
this reflects an unrest that is felt
also in the realm of religion.
Foundations become unstable,
one cannot be sure of the pres
ent day, much less of future
months and years. In the midst
of change and counterchange, the
road ahead is often not clearly
revealed, and one hardly knows
at times which path to take, when
choice is necessary.
Jeroboam lived in a situation
similar in some ways to that
which we confront today. In Je
rusalem, where his work at this
time lay, it was a daily experi
ence to see some new expression
of the magnificent manner of life
of the reigning king. It was a
daily experience, too, to become
increasingly aware of the Heb
rew people’s discontent with the
autocracy under which they were
forced to live and work. As one
walked through the streets of the
city cf David, and saw the cha
riots of the king go dashing by,
all perhaps seemed well with the
nation. But, if one noted the
faces of men and women after the
royal procession had passed, and
if one listened to the comments
that were made, he got a dis
tinct impression of the rumbling
of a coming storm, and of a pa
tience that might not always bide
its time.

General Evangeline Booth, head

turn to England in August for the
meeting of the Salvation Army high
council to select her successor.
There are so few details given
in the biography of Jeroboam at
this point that it is not easy to
fill in the gaps that remain. How
ever, one day certain events
happened which precipitated a
crisis in the life of man, and de
termined the way he should
henceforth take. Walking along
on the outskirts of Jerusalem,
thinking of the situation which
confronted the people, he was
unexpectedly joined by Alijah,
one of the leading phophets of
the time. W: can be very sure
that this visit was preceded by a
long period of observation of
Jeroboam cn the part of the pro
phet, and that the result was a
conviction that here was a man
of promise, here was one who
through character and qualities
of leadership gave indication that
he, perhaps, should take the lead
ing part in the great drama of
national disintegration and re
construction that the trained
mind of the prophet told him
would yet appear. So it was that
on this particular day, meeting
Jeroboam walking alone, Alijah
drew him aside, rent his garment,

and holding out ten pieces of it
to his wondering companion,
said in grave and solemn words:
Thus saith the Lord, the God
of Isrial, Behold, I, will rend
the kingdom out of the hand of
Solomon, and will give ten tribes
to thee: . . . And it shall be, if
thou . . . wilt walk in my ways,
and do that is right . . . that I
will be with thee, and build thee
a sure hous?, as I build for Da
vid, and will give Isreal unto
thee.
It must have seemed to Jero
bcam a veritable messsage from
God himself, as he stood there
and listened to the prophet
speak. In the midst of his hesita
tion and uncertainty, the word of
the Eternal had come to him,
calling him out into such a place
of leadership as he would never
have dreamed for himself. God
wanted him, then, to be ready
when the time came to lead his
people back to the ways of their
great forefathers. That was why
he had felt their oppression heavy
upon is heart. Likewise, does not
the message of God come to us
over and over again today when
we are certain in which way we
should walk? Now, as then, his
message may speak to us when
we are tempted to shrink back,
and to think only of ourselves
and our welfare, and it may call
us out into a harder and more
dangerous place of service than
we would ever think of choosing
for ourselves. Yet, when we once
enter upon it, and give ourselves
to it, we find fulfillment and joy,
and we thank God for the mes
sage that set our feet in the path
that led to life.
When the word of God comes
to us, therefore, in little moments
or in great, when we are con
scious of an unseen pressure of
the spirit upon our own which
seems to say clearly to us, “This
is the way, walk ye in it,” well
It is if we follow as did Jeroboam
when that momentous call came
which changed the course of his
life.
How surely and unerringly we
go on our way, once we have com
mitted it completely to God, and
have put ourselves into his hands
for direction and guidance! In
security gives way to confidence,
fear gives way to peace, and joy
and freedom replace gloom and
| strain. Why therefore do we con
tinue to walk with dread and un
certainty when we may, if we
will, walk down the years with
the abiding presence of God
himself? May we listen to the an
cient words of wisdom today, and
may they always abide in our
hearts so long as we shall live: |
“In all thy ways acknowledge j
him, and he shall direct thy
paths.”

Fields Looms
As New Star
Walter L. Agnew is about to
become a film star. The reason
the fact isn’t generally known is
because the Agnew cognomen
was dropped by Stanley Fields,
the big, comical character viL
lain, years ago.
Only the other day, the “Dead
End” Kids found it out. Few
people in Hollywood knew that
Fields was a stage name. Stanley,
the Kids, Ronald Reagan and
Margaret Lindsay are together in
the Warner Bros, film, “Hell’s
Kitchen,” now showing at the
Dolly Madison Theatre.
Billy Halop and Bobby Jordan
chanced to see Fields’ real name
on an old newspaper cut in the
actor’s dressing room, and both
ered him until he confessed.
As for Fields’ proximity, Di
rector Lewis Seiler thinks “Hell’s
