PRIMARY TOPIC?The Lordn Sup per. INTERMEDIA! I. ANO SENIOR TOPIC?Th? Me.m n?r of the Commu nion Service. YOUNC 1EOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC ?Communion With J(-sua Christ. I. The Passover Prepared (w. 7-13.) 1. The Pis ipl<?f.' Inquiry (vv. T'icy inquired of Jesus as to where they should prepare for the Passover. They no doubt were anxious to be of service to llliu. 2. The Muster's F?n?nue Directions (vv. 10-1"). They vere to go Into the city where they would meet a man bearing a pitcher of water. He an Biirod them that they would then be shown a large upper room furnished. 3. The Obedience of the Disciples (v. 13). They did not stop to ques tion th?' sanity of the command but like true disciples obeyed. Jesus, be cause He Is omniscient, knew Just how the matter would turn out. 11. The Passover Eaten (vv. 14-18). 1. fly Whom (v. 14)? Those who sat down t<> this last Pnssover feust were the Master and the Twelve Apostles. 12. His Words Unto Them (vv. IB-IS). * (1) "I hnve desired to eat this pass over with you before I HuflVr." How anxious lie wrh to show them the meaning of the pulsion through which He wns to go; also lie craved their human sympathy is He passed through this trying ordeal. (2) "I will not any more eat there of, until H be fulfilled In the kingdom of God." Ills death was the nntltypl eni fulfillment of tho passover meal. He looked forward to that time when the process of redemption would have been completed and a perfect union between the disciples and the Lord would be consummated. (3) "Take this cup and divide It among yourselves." The disciples were now partaking of that symbol of Ills blood. He nssured them that He would not again drink of the .frult of the vine until the kingdom of God should come. Drinking anew In the kingdom does not mean that In heaven this service will be renewed, but thnt this was symbolic of the heavenly reality. III. The Feast of the New Covenant Instituted (vv. 10-20). This topk place at the dose of the paschal Ripper. 1. The Bread, a Symbol ef Christ's Bbdy (v. 10). Christ giving of Him self to them. In order to get benefit from physical bread It la necessary to receive It. In order to get benefit from Christ one must receive Him. 2. The Cup, a Symbol of Christ's Blood (v. 20). This was symbolic of the atonement which was made by the shedding of Ills blood on the cross. He said: "This cup Is the new tes tament In My blood which was shed for you," Indicating that each one must personally accept the atonement made by the shedding of Ills blood. IV. The Wicked Behaviour at the Feast (vv. 21-27). 1. The Treachery of Judas (vv. 21-23). (1) The time of Its manifestation (v. 21). It was while they were eat- j Ing the Inst pnssover that Jesus made ' the announcement of the betrayal, i Perhaps the reason why this feast was disturbed by such an announcement wns that Judas might be given an op portunity at this last moment to re pent. (2) The betrayal wns by the deter minate counsel of (Jod (?. 22?cf. Acts 2:23). Nothing takes place by chance. Eve* the evil, sinful acts of men come ?within the permissive providence of God. but this docs not lessen the guilt, for Jesus says: "Woe unto the man by whom He Is betrayed." (3) Sorrowful question (?. 23). The disciples did not seem to suspect one another, but made the question a per sonal one. 2. Selfish Ambition of the Disciples <rv. 24-27). In this trsgtc hour the ' disciples were so concerned wltli the ! thought of honorable position that i they were striving nmong themselves 1 iu? to who should be greatest. V. The Apostles' Place In tfte King dom (vv. 28-30). He assures them that those who continue with Him In His trials shall be appointed unto a place in the king dom which will entitle them to eat and drink at His tabls and sit qn ' dfcroneg Judging the twelve tribes of 2sr?eL She Was the Square Peg By JOAN M. GRAY (Copyright.) ASQUAItB pes will not fit Into n round hole, as everybody knows, and that Is probubly the reason why Margaret Page could not tit luto-the life her family lived. When ?he was alone she wondered why she wis not happy. There was Beatrice, her older alster, married to a millionaire and perfectly happy In an Immense house of her own. There was Mi ml, her younger sister, perfectly happy in Just tearing from one gnyety to another, with nothing on her mind but clothes and a good time. There wus her mother, happy in her clubs, and t*?T? was her father, happy in hla business and golf, and finally, there was Peg herself, happier since her mother had turned the bit; house over to Iter to manage. She went to all the parties and tour naments and did everything the others did, but she was so quiet that her "crowd" was almost unconscious of hrr. Yet the Page house was by far the most popular place In town, simply because Peg made It so. "You're so awfully quiet, Peg." Mlmi told her, "and you act bored to death. You can't act bored to death In a crowd and be popular unless you're a very great personage." "Oh. I know Pm not popular," Peg shrti 'ged. "Hut you certainly are, so run ulong and let me finish these flow ers." So Mlmi ran olT to a tennis match and Peg turned back to her vases, perfectly huppy to be among such simple things as (lowers. "I am bored with this life," she told herself. "If I could have a pretty, lit tle house, and a garden, and a garage, and a car. and one maid. I'd be per fectly happy. And 1 think I'd like a husband?not rich, but with enough money to he Just comfortable. There aren't any of that kind In our crowd. How Beatrice can live In that pile of hers, I do not understand." She was still thinking of hex ideal life when she started out toward the country In search of wild roses. Far out on the edge of the town she fume upon The Mouse, white, with green blinds barely finished, but with a gar den and planted fields on each side, and in the roar a garage. She stood and gazed at the place lovingly. "Oh. how I covet that," she cried. "I'm going to walk through that gar den and peep Into that house. No one is there, and I've simply got to do It. I may never have one of ray own." She walked slowly through the gar den and peeped Into every peepable window, completing her tour at the back. "Isn't It darling!" she sighed, as she dropped from her toes. "Isn't it P' echoed a deep voice be hind her. She turned swiftly, covered with con fusion. "I hep your pardon," she cried. "I have absolutely no right to be here." "I haven't, either, really," the young man answered, "but J hope to have. A friend of mine built this for his mother and she died before they could get It ready to live in. He cannot live here without her, and he cannot sell it to strangers, but Z, a homeless wretch and his friend, am going to buy it and live In It nnd keep it sucred to his mother's memory." f "Alone?" Peg queried, before she thought. "Yes?unless? Would you like to go through the hcfuse?" "Oh,* yes," breathed Teg, again be fore she thought. "All right, Pogg.v Page," the young mnu snid, "Just you follow m?i." "You?yon know my name?" "Is It likely I wonld forget the name of the only girl who was ever decent to me?" "Why, I?I've never seen you be fore." *Ah, bnt you have. It Isn't strange that you should forget the sickly, pim ply little lad cnlled Willie Mnrlin. whose father and mother died and left him penniless. But I haven't forgotten the little girl who gave him her favor ite story book the day he went West to live with his aunt and little cousin." "You! Willie Martini But?you've changed so," cried Peg. "Haven't I?" he chuckled. "I'm culled Bill now and my pimples are gone and I have a little money. Con sidering ray past, are you going to be friends with me again. Peggy?" he asked, his gray eyes tender. "Of course I am," cried Peg. "You've ?you're so fine. Yon must have had a very great struggle.'* "It's over, and I'm much the better for lt,M he replied. "I have an Idea that my greatest struggle Is ahead of me. Now, let's go through the house." "Let's. But, Willie?I mean Bill? won't you let me help yon with this j new struggle?" "You're the only one who can. Yon see. I want te marry a girl?a rich umn's daughter?who Is yged to luxury ?nd frivolity?And Tn not a rich man." "Oh," said Peg, /faintly. MMaj 1 know her name?" "P?tt7 Puge Is her name.** he an swered. "What do you think of my chancesV "I think they are very good," said Peg steadily. "I?won't you come home to lunch with me and let mother and dad see how splendid you've grown?" And that is the way the square peg found a square hole and fitted Into it securely. Thut Is how Peggy Page Martin?ss she was called a year later ?achieved a heart's desire and ruled supremely over a pretty little house, a garden, u garage, a car. one maid? and a big adoring husband. Positive Proof That Woman Had Been Poor She looked rich and acted rich, be cause she had murried a rich man, yet at ieast one woman at the tea party, says a writer In the New York Times, discovered that she had once been poor. "Take It from me," she said, "there was a time, nut so very long ago. when she was as poor as the rest of us." "How did you discover that?" In quired her neighbor. "Because she knew where I keep nil my housekeeping things. She knew that the tea caddy was in the writing desk, that the cheese biscuits nnd other edibles beloved of mice were In that box under the sofn, that the alco hol for my stove was In the corner be hind the wasbstand, that the butter and milk were on the window ledge and that the eggs nnd other foods were In a box on the bottom shelf of the wardrobe. When we were cooking she went straight to the spot and got every one of those things without ask ing once where they were, which Is something that a person who had not kept house in one room could never have done." When Barrett Wendell Was Roused to Anger For ail his scholarly dignity, Bar rett Wendell, Harvard professor, now and then lost his temper and especially at football games. In his biography, M. A. DeWolfe Howes recalls an occa sion when Doctor Wendell and his daughter were greatly annoyed by an excited fan directly in front of them, who kept leaping up and cutting off their view. When protests proved of no avail, Wendell upraised his professorial cane and brought It crashing down on the man's lieud, breaking his lint. A roar of laughter went up from the delighted students who witnessed the Incident, increasing when the man turned around shouting furiously: "Who did that?" "I did," replied Wendell calmly. "Come out and I'll buy you a new hat." They exchanged cards and were gone from the game long enough to make the necessary purchase. Sewing Machine Inventor The father of the modern sewing machine was Elins Howe, who died in 1807. The patent for his first machine wns taken out in 1846, and its prin ciples still form the basis of most mod ern ones. Howe came from Massachu setts, and earned his living In a fac tory for making cotton machinery; but the honor of Inventing the first sewing machine Is not entirely American, since various clumsy machines for sewing leather nnd stuff had been evolved previously In England and In France. Howe visited England, but only managed to sell his patents for a bagatelle of $1,250. The descendants of his machine can do anything from button-holing and darning to the finest embroidery. That Boston Joke A number of boys were playing baseball In n vacant lot in Iloston, when the ball crashed through the window of an adjacent house. The wrathful householder stormed out in pursuit of the guilty ones. He man ured to capture one spectacled, slow footed youth. "I didn't do it, mister! I wasn't playing with them," the lad panted. "Then what did you run for?" roared the Injured man. "i?I'm afraid that I was a victim of the prevailing mob hysteria, sir."? Country Gentleman. Value of Self-Control Self-control is self-direction, as well as self-restraint. The engineer controls Ids engine not simply by preventing it fn>m running ofT the track or from colliding with an obstruction. It is rather by making it. do the work for wliich it was constructed and intended ?in pulling the train and getting some where?that lie establishes his reputa tion as an efficient engineer. Once give the boys and girls this positive side of the matter of s?-if-control and you net them on the path to develop ment, of operation and a large measure of success.

For Umbrella Protection A well-known business man had a bad habit of losing umbrellas, and as " tliey were usually expensive ones, he hit upon the happy idea of having his telephone number engraved on the ; hnndle. Since then he lost his um brella half a dozen times, but o%ving to the telephone number he ha?J al ways recovered it. The finder does not have to send it back; he rings up the number and the owner gladly calls for it. If the finder is dishonest he will not feel comfortable with that tell-tale number, and if he himself loses It, as ten to one he will, a more honest per son will eventually Inform the original owner. The latter, of course, will know nothing of the umbrella's adventures. If only the umbrella could talk I v You Tell Him t Johnson had obtained work in a rail way yard and was told to mark some trucks. "Here's a piece of chalk," said tli? foreman. "Mark each of 'em eleven." A little later the foreman came around again to see how the new hand had been getting on. He found him sitting on a bucket regarding a truck thoughtfully. Marked upon it was a/ large 1. "What does this mean?" asked the foreman. "Only one truck done, and! the number wrong at that. I said eleven, not one." "I know," said Johnson, "but I couldn't think on which side of the T the other '1' goes!" How to Win a Man "A man longs for your love until you have given It to him?after that not only does he cease to desire your love, but frequently ceases to love you also. Moral?Never show hira that you love him?he'll be much happier if you don't." "A man can be clumsy, stupid, ugly and base, and yet have the eyes of a beautiful woman follow him adoringly about a room full of attractive people. Heaven knows what the explanation is I" "No wife should try to keep lier hus band at home during the evening. Take a cub from a club and you get 'ell."?"Mere Man," by Honor Bright. Orthodoxy The orthodox Jew Is bigoted and austere. He Is a glutton for pain and sorrow. He likes to brood and pity himself. He has no Instinct for the joy of living and disapproves of such a trait in other?. But he does not take life Indifferent ly; neither is he bumptious about It. He has strength of character and ie able to thrive in the face of adversity. He believes In work. He is seldom a drunkard and eats with prudence, and clean food. He Is a man of .iplritual ideals and a moral man. He loves law and order and seldom gets into the criminal class.?Sonya I^evien, ixi Hearst's International.
