UNION RECORDER. MILLEDGEVILLE, GA.. MARCH 28, 192* INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR APRIL 7 THE MINISTRY OF ISAIAH D. D. Six month* are now tn be given to the Old Testament. Th<} general -itle is "Prophetic Teaching and Leadership of Judah." The Aim, as stated by the International Lesson? Committee, is “To lead the pupils in discovering and appreciating how God. through prophets and other leaders, gave and guidance to the people of Judah, in order that the pupils may come to see the hand of God in their own lives in all numan affairs." Five weeks are given to Isaiah, so read that book in that time. Th:* series continues the course which concluded with "From .Samuel o I n-ah" December 1927. and is part of the six year cycle. \ great heart ache led Isaiah to a special audience with God. Her. kiah the efficient and greatly ht.Vtrd king died and life for the nation looked dark indeed. There is a I way* resource in the recourse to prayer and the prophet was comfort, ed .-,- he looked into the future with Jehovah. Spiritual sight pierced be. yo. J -he horizon of the physical and Isaiah beheld his enthroned Lord in ir.-jertsc setting. Heavenly messeng ers were about Him. Their six wings ■ypified worship, humility and ser vice. Salutation was heard in the rntipbonal greeting "Holy, holy, holv js Jehovah of host?: the whole earth is full of his glory." Instantly the consciousness of the presence of Deity made Isaiah aware of :)is own sinful human nature by contra- . It is always so. As we com. unto Him we are mindful of the deference, ns the real self is acknowledged.

I.-aiah served faithfully during four reigns. He fulfilled the office of n prophet. He froetold the truth us a messenger commanded by Je hovah. No toil was too hard to be undertaken in obeying a commission. He boldly faced kings as well as peasants, /or every class equally needs the truth of life.

Dr. Ed Thurman, of Americus, Ga., wrote the flolowing preface: Dr. Thomas B. Meadows, MilledgeviUe, Ga. Dear Torn: To get the re_al kick (mule kick) from the enclosed read the refrain with some emphasis. As a boy you doubtles? heard people at time? speak to mules with some degree of firm ness. Down here :n South Georgia we have heard men inflict language on he lowly brutes that bordered dangerously near the offensive. You may never have cursed a mule your self. hut there are those none too Hi-'fintly related to you that have been guilty of this offense. I get more thrill out of the poem by substituting "Beck” for "Jane," for the mule that I used to persuade to obey with my farm dialect was called old Beck. My mule had one very commendable habit that appeal ed to me far more than to my father. My dear old Beck would insist on qui'ting immediately after the first dinner bell rang in the community I found it absolutely noces-ary t« take out and ge to dinner when the bell rang. The poem is as follows: And, oh, what a faith The plow-man shows. As he treads each year Those selfsame rows; And prays as he plows For a generous yield As he shouts as he toils Out across the fields; “O, Gee there, Jane! Won’t you Haw there mule! Ain’t you got no sense? You durned old fool!" And don't forget It’s a poor reward That the plowman gets For his labor hard; And don’t forget, Though he may seem rude, He holds in his hands Your clothes and food.
