Caring for a Monkey Mascot
The newest addition to the Berlin
zoological garden is a monkey which
was the mascot of the U-35 for a con
siderable time.
The monkey originally was the mas
cot of an English merchantman that
was halted by the German submarine.
He made trip after trip with the U-85
and was “in ut the deuth” of several
merchantmen. Ills transfer to the zoo
was ordered only when It became so
cold that he was likely to suffer if ex
posed.

JE8US THE LIGHT AND LIFE OF
MEN.
The studies for the first six months
of this year are devoted to the gospel
of John: the remaining portion of the
year to II Kings, Ezra and Nehemlah,
being a study with the prophets One
year from now we begin the new
“graded uniform lessous” recently
adopted by the reorganized Interna
tional Lesson committee.
John was younger tliun his brother,
James, und lived to be the oldest of the
apostles, dying somewhere between A.
D. 95 and 98. His name means
“Peace,” though he is suruamed the
“son of thunder" (Mark 3:17). Five
of the New Testament books hear his
name. He blended the gentleness of n
dove with the force and vision of an
eagle.” The purpose of his gospel is
clearly stated (ch. 20:31). Only ubout
8 per cent of it Is found in the other
three gospels. Seventy-six times the
word “witness” is used. The word
“father” occurs 140 times and the
name “Jesus” 240 times.
I. The Word (vv. 1-5). Words utter
thoughts; a word Is an expression of
nn inaudible and Invisible thing. As
the Word, Christ is Creator (ch. 14:9;
8:19), he is the source of light. “The
word is God heard; the life is God felt,
and the light is God seen”—Moody.
This eternally existing person is called
the Word because in him God fully ex
presses or reveals himself. The Bible
is the written word because iu it God
speaks aud reveals himself through
this person who is the eternal Word
(Heb. 1:3). The first verso brings out
the fact that there are nt least two
persons in the Godhead, the one divine
person iu company with whom the
word was, and the word, himself, was
God; that is, was also a divine per
son. He who by his incarnation be
came our brother and our savior was
first our creator and the creator of all
things, and apart from liim not any
thing came into existence. The Word
did not become the light of uicn by his
incarnation in Jesus of Nazareth. He
was ever the Light of Men. The light
that shone in the Old Testament time
shone from him. When sin came, night
came.
II The Witness (vv. 6-10). John the
Baptizer came for a witness. He was
not the light. Some might have
thought him to be the promised Mes
siah. This he.denied. He was a lamp
which held forth light to wen concern
ing the true light “which lighteth every
man that cometh Into the world.” He
reflected light (v. 8). John told all that
he knew. Testimony will expand ns
experience enlarges. The spoken
word of man must confirm the experi
ence of the word iu our lives. John
was a wonderful man, a man whom
God delighted to honor, but he was a
man. Men are not asked to believe
blindly, but always upon an abundance
of testimony.
III. The World (vv. 11-14). This
world was created by Jesus, and
throughout its existence he has been
in the world, though the world knew
him not. This living light had been
coming Into the world, and was not
fully come until he was manifest to
Israel at the baptismal act of John.
In order to be made manifest the
“Word was made flesh” in the person
of Jesus. The world did not apprehend
the light (v. 5) nor did the world which
he was in and which was made by him
(v. 10). Even his own people, literally
his own household servants, I. e. Israel,
received him not to themselves, but
whoever receives him, even the vilest
sinner of earth, and takes him into his
heart to be all Jesus desired to be, sa
vior, lord, teacher, friend, that insiaut
he becomes a child of God. We cannot
attempt to explain this mystery. The
union of spirit and body was in one
person, a sample fact; though unex
plained, still true. The union of God
with a human body, forming one per
son, Christ Jesus, sometimes spoken of
separately, sometimes as a whole,
sometimes as divine, sometimes os hu
man. We cannot divide his activities
into two sections and say this is divine
and this is human; they are inexpli
cably blended into one. This Christ
really dwelt among us. He did not
merely appear to some persons, or
come in a vision, and yet his abode
among us was only temporary, only a
few years, and we beheld his glory, the
glory of the only begotten Son. The
world expected a Messiah and his own
creation, his own inheritance received
