LESSON FOR JUNE 29
REVIEW: RESPONSE TO GOD'S
LOVE.
SELECTION FOR READING—PhiI, t:
t-14.
GOLDEN TEXT-I will pralsa thee, O
Lord my God. with my whole heart—
Pa.
PRIMARY TOPlC—Showing Our Love
to Our Heavenly Father.—John 14:IS.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Some Things We Have
Learned About God.—John 1:11
INTERMEDIATE TOPIC—The Marks
es a Christian.
SENIOR AND ADULT TOPIC-Bome
Fundamentals of Faith and Practice,
The method of review will largely be
determined by the grade of the school.
The primary teacher can use the ma
terial which shows love to the Heav
enly Father; the junior teacher, that
which teaches about God; the inter
mediate teacher, the marks of a Chris
tian ; the senior and adult teacher, the
fundamentals of faith and practice. As
Illustrative of the method for the
senior and adult, note the following:
Lessen I. God who was before all
things is the cause of all things. The
universe came into being by the will
and act of the divine personality. Man
himself is a creation of God, not an
evolution. All things continue to be
by the preserving power of God. This
great being is the Father of all who be
lieve on Jesus Christ. We should give
him our undivided affection and trust
him for food and raiment.
Lesson 11. Jesus, the Son of God
and Israel's Messiah, is the lamb who
bore our sins. Out of God’s love he
was given, and “whosoever beiieveth
on him shall not perish, but have ever
lasting life.”
Lesson 111. Jesus Christ rose from
the dead. His resurrection guarantees:
1. The integrity of the Scriptures
I Cor. 15:20).
2. The reality of the divine person
(Rom. 1:4).
3. The sufficiency of Christ's aton
ing sacrifice (Rom. 4:25).
4. Life and immortality of the be
liever (I Cor. 15:20).
Lesson IV. On the day of Pentecost
the Holy Spirit was poured out upon
the disciples, baptizing them into the
one body of which Christ is the head.
The gift of the Spirit peculiarly qual
ified the disciples to be his witnesses.
Lesson V. God created man in his
likeness and image and placed him at
the head of creation.
Lesson VI. Through the fall of
Adam sin has passed upon all men,
bringing death, physical and spiritual,
and sorrow in its train.
Lesson VII. Lost men are saved ab
solutely by God's grace. His grace
means his kindness toward men
through Jesus Christ.
Lesson VIII. At the preaching of
Jonah the people of Nineveh repented.
Because of their repentance God's
wrath was turned aside. Those who
repent of their sins and cry to God
for mercy through Jesus Christ shall
be saved.
Lesson IX. It is only through faith
that man can please God. Through
faith the mightiest victories have been
wrought. The grand exemplar upon
whom faith can rest is Jesus Christ.
Lesson X. The grand incentive to
obedience is love to God. Calling Christ
Lord will not answer for disobedience
to his will. Hearing and doing his
teachings Is building upon the solid
rock. Such building can never be de
stroyed by flood or storm.
Lesson XI. The right motive in pray
ing is not to attract man's attention,
but to have fellowship with God. God
is pleased with persistency in prayer.
Lesson XII. The greatest of the
Holy Spirit’s gifts is love —the love
of God shed abroad In our hearts.
Love is not a mere sentiment or emo
tion, but a mighty dynamic which
transforms the life, expressing itself
in practical service to men. It abides
forever.
Staying Away From Church.
The habit of absenting one's self
from the Sunday services of the church
it one that some seem to acquire very
easily. It is a habit to be shunned.
Sometimes it Is occasioned by sick
ness; often some small excuse, some
grudge against a member, some re
sentment at a fellow member’s fault.
Is the occasion. Jesus will be there,
even if an unworthy member is pres
ent. Jesus may be present especially
to meet and forgive that unworthy
member; and who are we that we
should judge a brother or a sister?
Charity and Denial.
Brother men. one act of charity will
teach us more of the love of God than
a thousand sermons—one denial, than
whole volumes of the wisest writers
on theology.—F. W. Robertson.
Grandest Thing on Earth.
There is not a man or woman, how
ever poor they may be. but have It
In their power, by the grace of God,
to leave behind them the grandest
thing on earth, character: and their
children might rise up after them and
thank God that their mother was a
pious woman, or their father a pious
man. —N. Macleod.
Transcends All Substance.
God’s will tn the present moment Is
the daily bread which transcends all
substance.—Madame Swetchlna.

ENTERTAINMENT BY PUPILS

The parents of the children of the

YOUNG CRISP COUNTY
WIFE SHOOTS HERSELF
CORDELE, June 23.—Lilly and
a wide community around were
thrown into excitement Saturday
when Mrs. Alma Ingram, popu
lar young matron was found shot
. through the heart in a room at her
father's residence following the re
port of a pistol which caused mem
bers of the family to rush into the
room.
rY (Thurs-dayPc'Mrs.whenAthrough'w
All indications pointed to an ef
fort at suicide, but Mrs. Ingram had
intimated nothing in the slightest de
gree wrong. Members of the family
were at a family gathering for din
ner. Others had gone to the meal
while Mrs. Ingram was slow alxyit
going. While the others were at din
ner she apparently shot herself with
her father’s revolver which she got
from the mantlepiece.
Mrs. Ingram is about 20 years of
age and has been married some two
years. She is the daughter of Mr. J.
E. McGough, who is a prominent and
well to do. Her husband is a mer
chant in Lilly, held in highest esteem
and a prosperous business man.

That is what the government sent
last year to make the soldier’s and
sailor’s feet comfortable and fi
for the kind of war they fought and
finished.
In peace and war for over 25 years
Allen’s Foot-Ease, the antiseptic,
healing powder for thi feet, to be
shaken into the shoes and sprinkled
into the foot bath has been the stand
ard remedy for all swollen,
hot tired feet, blisters and sore spots
and for the instant relief of coms,
bunions and callouses.
Thousands of people sent packages
of Allen’s Foot-Ease to their sons,
brothers or sweethearts in the army
and navy because they knew from
experience that it would freshen and
rest their feet, make their shoes
comfortable and walking easy. Those
who use Allen’s Foot-Ease have solv

SOUTH GEORGIA
COTTON FOUND
IN SAD PLIGHT
ATLANTA, June 23.—With re
ports flowing in that boll weevils are
on the rampage in larger numbers
than ever before in the state, grass
springing up thickly on cultivated
acres and farm labor growing more
inefficient and indifferent, the state
agricultural department has given
out a statement that this year's cot
ton crop will be about one-third or
at most one-half of normal.
North Georgia is not hit as badly
as in the southern section of the
state, including all territory as far
north as Macon. J. J. Brown, com
missioner of agriculture, declared
that the whole situation in South
Georgia, including the coastal plains
section, is gloomy indeed. Added to
their other handicaps the farmers
and the labor they have been able to
get is reported to be very inefficient.
Thousands of farmers, says Com
missioner Brown says, and there is
cotton and planting peas, peanuts
. and other food and forage crops. The
reports from all other cotton states
[are similar to South Georgia, Com
'misoisner Brown says, and there is
’no telling what cotton will bring by
Christmas.

1 THINK there is no worse feel
ing than to realize that a
gown or hat or wrap is not ex
actly becoming, and to nave to
wear it because it was expen
sive. That is the way I felt
about the evening wrap I were
Saturday night to the Ingersol’s
dinner. And this morning 1
have had the greatest piece of
luck! Jeanne came over and
said: “Dot, I was simply mad
about that wrap you wore Sat
urday night.' I told her I loved
the wrap but thought the lines
un becoming; and she begged me
to let her try it on and if it were
becoming to her, would I sell it?
It is really a lovely thing made of
black chiffon over white
chiffon, gathered to a yoke and
collar in one, made of tailless
ermine. The lower part is gath
ered into a wide band of the fur,
making it very narrow at the
feet when buttoned. It looked
wonderful on Jeanne, and she
took it back with her in the car,
for fear I’d change my mind.

Mr. Jackson points out the pro

al cost to the farmers in the Southern
states of about $43,950,000 in the
next ten years, and additional ex

“Georgia consumes annually about
865,000 tons of commercial fertili
zer, containing two units of potash a

ed by the government the total cost
of the potash used in this state in
the next ten years would be $30,275,-

$1 a unit the total cost would be
