would do. He threw out a challenge
to the priests and to the scribes at
Jerusalem. To make as public an
event as possible of his entry into
the city he was going to ride in but
he had no steed upon which to ride.
So he sent two of the disciples to
get him a colt. They procured the
colt and threw their coats upon it
make * or saddle and thus Jesus rode
into Jerusalem followed by the
crowds from the surrounding coun
try. This crowd was beside them
selves with joy and greeted Jesus as
the promised Messiah. The reception
given Jesus by the crowd very much
enraged the Pharisees. It is recorded
in Luke 19:39,40. In verse one we
are told “and when they drew nigh
unto Jerusalem and were come to
Bethpage, unto the Mount of Olives
then sent Jesus two disciples to the
city to get a steed for him that he
might ride into the city as prophe
sied hundreds of years before. These
disciples were told where to go and
that they would find an ass and her
colt tied, and for them to bring the
ass and colt to him. He also told
these two disciples that the owner
might inquire as to why he was
talcing them and if he did to tell the
owner that the Lord Rath need for
them, and that when told this the
owner would consent to them being
taken away. Jesus knew that the
owner would feel honored at having
the Lord or Messiah of the world to
use his steed. The Jews had been

BUTLER DEFEATS TALBOTTON
The B. H. S. baseball team con
tinued its 'winning streak by nosing-
out the stnong Talbotton Club Wed
nesday afternoon by the score of 5
to 3. The victory was the second in a
week for Butler over the same team.
Gray, Davis and Pope led the hit
ting and scoring for the home team
while only three men connected safe
ly for the visitors. iMott pitched an
excellent game for Butler and with
good hacking, had tio trouble in hold
ing the early lead.
The lineup will be found on the
school page (page five) of this issue
with the exception of Mott.

looking for a Messiah for mole than
one thousand yeurs. After all this
was done that the ancient prophecy
might be fulfilled. Muthcw, a Jew,
was writing to his countrymen tell
ing the that Jesufi was the Messiah,
He quoted the prophet, Isauh, and
linked Jesus with these prophecies.
The disciples that brought the ass
and colt must have been very much
surprised as Jesus on all his former
entrances into Jerusalem hud gone
on foot. It was only a short dis
tance to the city. They could not see
why Jesus wished to endanger his
life at the hands of his enemies in
Jerusalem by heralding his coming.
They could not understand it unless
he was coming to Jerusalem to lake
over the reins of civil government
that they thought he was going to
establish. They were badly bothered
oyer the situation. They were di
vided between fear and hope.
The C.halenge
It is to be recalled here that the
chief priests and I'harasses had chal
lenged Jesus. The people were won
dering if Jesus would come out and
face them after this challenge had
been hulled at him. Jesus had de
cided that he would not go quietly
ar.d unobserved into Jerusalem this
time but that he would enter pub
licly and let al! the people, both
friend and foe know that he had ac
cepted tlie challenge and wns not
ready to observe wtiat his enemies
would do.
The Journey
When Jesus had mounted the colt
\ve have a picture with him and the
multitude of an orieptal procession
of some victorious general returning
from war. The people took off their
outter garments and spread them on
the ground in front of Jesus. Many
o fthem broke off palm branches and
spread them over , the road that
Jesus was to travel. This was their
way of showing that he was their
hero and their expected ruler. The
palm branches that, were thrown in
to the road signified to'the oriental
mind peace and victory. Anothei
thing about the palm is that it is
perpetually green. This fact brings
to mind the words of the Psalmist
“the righteous shall flourish like the
palm tree”, and also of John in the
Revalations when speaking ,of the
gorified of all nations in the heaven
ly city as arrayed in white robes and
palms in their hands. r
The Multitude
The multitudes were the ones who
folloyved Jesus and the disciples from
Bethany and Bethpage and the ad
jacent territory. T hey ‘ cried out
Hosanna. This was really a cheer
and a prayer. It really meant save
we pray. It was a call to salvation
for Israel They shouted to the son
of David. Jesus was of the kingly
line of David. It was from this roy
al lineage that the Messiah was to
come. The people ail wildly pro
claimed Jesus as coming from God.
A Time For All Things
There is a time to act openly and
a time to act secretly. There are
times when we must come out into
the open. For three years Jesus had
been coming and going quietly to
the feasts. John tells us that he
went not publicly but as it were in
secret. This time was the time for
Jesus to come out jnto the open.
His life had even hebn threatened
and his teachings disputed, and peo-
pe wondered if he dared come out
into the open in face of all this.
Now was the time for Jesus to act
openly though by so doing it would
hasten his death.
After Entering Jerusalem
Jesus upon entering Jerusalem
went into the temple and proceeded
to have a cleaning up of saipe. His
first act was to run out the * money
changers who changed the people’s
money into temple money and in so
doing were short changing them.
This brand of thievery received the
condemnation of Jesus as he demon
strated by casting out the changers.
He even called them a den of rob
bers. These money changers made
no contribution to religion. Their
motives for being there were purely
and solely mercenary. So we are not
surprised at Jesus running them out
of the temple. We are to know from
this incident that we cannot be too
careful in our regard for the house
of God. It is our duty to reverence it
at all times.
Christ the Way
We are now made to recognize
Christ as the way. “I am the way,
the truth and the light." After the
happenings ,of this lesson we are
more than ever convinced that
Christ is the way. It- is the funda
mental, central and crowning truth
of the Bible. It is that which ex
plains every apologue, allegory,
image and type in the Bible. It is
that which imparts significance to
every genealogy, chronology, history
in the Bible. It is the key that un-
Jocks God’s revelation. It is the mas
ter hand which unravels its mys
teries and weaves the disentangled
threads into a beautiful web of con
sistent and comprehensible truth. It
is the kingstone quarried by our Im
manuel out of the diamond rocks of
heaven,' chiseled and polished by his
artistic hand, while Calvary trem
bled beneath the blows of his
weighty hammer which awakened
the dead and frightened created
light back into the world of unceas
ing night and now finished and du
plicated glitters in the symmetric
arches of the beautiful bridge of
salvation stretching from the regions
of death to the regions of life
spanning hell and hades, its every
stone cemented bv the blood of its
architect and builder.

Thousands have Ended
their Bowel Worries
by taking this advice! ^
Can constipation be safely relieved?
“Yes!” say medical men. “Yes!"
say the many thousands who have
followed their advice and know.
You are not likely to cure your
constipation with salts, pills, tablets,
or any of the habit-forming cathar
tics. But you can correct this con-
suitablc
y gent
liquid
laxative.
THE LIQUID TEST:
First: select a properly prepared
liquid laxative. Second: take the
dose you find suited to your system.
Third: gradually reduce the dose
until bowels are moving of their
own accord.
” Simple, isn’t it? And it works!
The right liquid laxative brings
thorough bowel action without
using force. An approved liquid
laxative (one which is most widely
used for. both adults and children)
is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It
is'a doctor’s prescription, and i*
perfectly safe. Its laxative action
is based on senna—a natural laxa
tive. The bowels will not become
dependent on this form of help, as
in the case of mineral drugs.
Hospitals and doctors have al
ways used liquid laxatives. The
dose can be measured, and the
action controlled. Pills and tablets
containing drugs of violent aetion
are hard on the Dowels.
If there are children in your
household, don’t give them any fad
form of laxative, out use a health
ful, helpful preparation lik Crop
Pepsin. Its very taste will t Ttyo*
it is wholesome, and agreeable to
the stomach. Delightful tasks, and
delightful action; there is no dis
comfort at the time, or after. Ask
your druggist for uc. Caldwell**
