Matt. 16:16. (Lesson Text: Matthew 16:13-28) I 1 With 'this lesson, we begin the second half in a six months' course "' Iri lrtudles on the Kingdom of Heaven, as set forth by Matthew. Caesarea Philippi was the most northerly point reached by Jesus in his ministry. With his disciples he had journeyed northward from the Sea of Galilee, seeking to instruct then! for taking up his work, which 'Vwould, become necessary in about six months. .Sj " r ti:i: : : i. 1 X Ajesarea jrmuppi is euBtwaru jliuiu aWyn . rv i l., -F mileSvieast of Dan, the city which with Beersheba was used in the ! phrase to indicate the entire country. I It had been built by Herod Philip, named in honor of the Emperor, but 1 with Philip's own name attached to distinguish it from the seacoast Caesarea, built by Herod the Great. Withthe time for his final conflict with the Jewish leaders rapidly ap proaching, Jesus was anxious for his little band of followers to understand properly his mission and his identity. So, as they neared the northern limit of their tour, he opened mp the dis cussion by asking them who the pub lic, thought he was. The answers re- a lot of the impression Jesus made during his two and a half ears. for he was universally placed in a lofty comparison There were many who believed i Jesus to be none other than Johnjlished institution. At the same time, the Baptist, returned to life after his ) it was promised that Peter would so execution at the hand of the king. Others identified him with Elijah, "that great fighting prophet of an cient times, who contested with ftelse religion for the supremacy of right teousness, a man who had worked miracles, and had not tasted of death. Some thought he was Jeremiah, re garded as the leader of all the proph ets, or at least, one of the other great prophetical figures returned to life. Then Jesus put the supremely vital nuestion to his close group of fol lowers, asking them who they , thought he was He had been with them for thirty months, they had j him at work, they had heard i film teaching the eternal principles was more vital than the present em would they, now recognize his divin- ployment of time, that a man must ity? The impetuous Peter made seek nobility of character and life, answer, proclaiming his individual rather than enjoyment of material belief that Jesus was "The Son of things. To gain the whole world at the Living God." Promptly he re-1 the expense of the eternal would be ceived commendation with the assur-1 foolishness. Diphtheria Law Is Not Being Enforced State Health Officer Re ports 476 Cases Dur ing November The law designed to prevent diph theria by requiring that children be immunized, which was passed by the last General Assembly and ratified March 17, 1939, is not being enforced, it was asserted Friday night by Dr. Carl V. Reynolds, State Health Offi cer. In substantiation of this assertion, Dr. Reynolds" pointed out the fact that, according to the report of the State Board of Health's Division of - Epidemiology, there were 476 cases of diphtheria throughout the State in 4 November, 211 of which occurred in , children tinder- 5 years of age and 176 in children from 5 to 9. ' "It requires only about sixty days for a child to become immunized,". Dr. Reynolds said, "and it tinis iawope(i the disease. There was an r.had Bee observed to the letter,' average of 33 more stalks per 100 ; diphtheria could have been wiped outjfeet of row at picking time where by midsummer of this year.

''. ' , : ', .'" The State J8od of Health requests ' all parents' to see that their children - are Immunized against this highly in .'; fectious disease, thereby saving us ; ' the embarrassment of having to take drastic steps," Dr. Reynolds added r; significantly. - The results of diphtheria are not , only ; dangerous to the child, but 1 through the neglect of not having children ' immunized the lives of all susceptibles within the "range of its . lontact are endangered. . ; '.'l call upon the parents of North Carolina to act now, before it Is too late!" -. .i.;.. .. A United 'States cotton crop ofi 11,845,000 bates, the smaUest since i:C5, was forecast' by the . Federal C -?p Reporting Board in its Novem r. 1 report, ance that he correctly interpreted the divme truth which he had received While the revelation came from heaven, it was to Peter's credit that his own spiritual nature had been developed sufficiently to grasp and understand the great truth. "From the day of this conference at Caesarea Philippi down to the present day," says Rev. Charles E. Jefferson, "there have never been in the world but two opinions concerning Jesus of Nazareth. According to one opinion, Jesus is a man, a great man, truly wonderful, not only a man, a bright and shining light like John the Baptist, a sensitive and tender hearted patriot and marytr like Jeremiah, an intrepid messenger from the courts of heaven like Elijah, a beautiful Heraclitus, or Socrates, a noble Seneca of Epictetus, a Pales tinian Confucius or Buddha, a ver great and wonderful, but still a man." Contrasted with this viewpoint, Rev. Jefferson presents the other: "According to the other opinion, he is the Messiah, the desire of the na tions, the consummator of history, the One who was to come, the Sop of the Eternal, the only Son of God, un paralelled, unapproached, unapproach able, unique, unlike any other person that has ever been, or that ever will be. These are the two conceptions of Jesus, and besides these two there is none other. From the beginning the Christian Church took the higher of these two conceptions, and she has steadfastly held it to the present hour." Jesus told Peter that he would build his church upon the faith which j ne confessed, not upon the person 01 the apostle, and Jesus predicted that the power and authority of deatn would not prevail against his estab- increase in spiritual lite that ne would know the divine will and wis dom, a promise which inures to the benefit of any consecrated Christian who earnestly and patiently follows him in an effort to find everlasting life and eternal truth. Then, Jesus tried to prepare his little band for the crusifixion which was soon to take place. Peter imme diately, in his impetuous way, pro tested, and Jesus rebuked him as the instrument of Satan, seeking to lead him away from the divine plan. To follow him, Jesus pointed out a man must deny himself, take up his cross, and lose his life. He wanted them to know that tne nereaiter oi eternity Treatment Of Cotton Seed Is Now General Cotton seed treatment to control damping off has become general in North Carolina during the past six years, and the results of 253 demon strations conducted in the State from 1936 through 1939 indicate an in crease in value of the crop by an es timated $5492,000, reports Howard R. Garriss, assistant Extension plant pathologist of State College. He an nounced a summary of the demon strations. Where seed was treated, it was found that an average of 431 plants emerged per 100 feet of row, as com pared with only 305 plants to emerge per 100 feet in untreated rows. This is a difference of 126 plants per 100 feet in favor of seed treatment. Over the four-year period, an aver age of more than three times as many plants were killed by damping off in untreated plots than in treated ones, Garriss continued. An average of 72 percent of the living plants from untreated seed developed sore- shin, while in the treated plots only 17 percent of the living plants devel the average yields of seed, cotton perl acre were 1,248 pounds from treated Seed and 1,023 from untreated seed. -rg values of 'lint and seed averaged $54.66 per acre from treated seed, and S44.84 from untreated, or an average difference of $9.82 per acre in favor of treated seed. The practice of treating cotton seed was started in the State in 1934, but records of result demonstrations conducted in cooperation with county farm agents are available for only the four-year period.
