International Sunday School Lesson for July 7
THE STORY OF EZEKIEL
Ezekiel 3:4-11; 24:15-18
Three lessons are pven to the book
of Ezekiel and plans should be made
now to read the 48 chapters within
that time. Visions and symbols abound.

home missionary, though in a foreign
land, and he had the advantage in
knowing the language.
The task w’ould be hard, indeed, for
Much will be found to stimulate think-^ yet the people did not have a mind
ing which cannot be explained. You
will be lifted, as was the author, into
realms of the spiritual and come to an
even grreater conception of the reality
of the Almighty.
Ezekiel had been carried to Babylon
from Jerusalem in the deportation
during the reign of Jehoiachin, in B97
B. C. Daniel was already there by a
still earlier transfer of captivity, feeep
in mind that the overthrow of Jeru
salem was 586 B. C. Our author, pro
phet and pastor began his work at the
age of 30, which was the usual time
to enter the priestly office, and such
his father Buzi held. The very day is
indicated when his ministry began,
and it translates into our June 26. The
place is Tel-aviv, located on a canal
in Babylonia. Indicated passages for
special research are Ezekiel 1:1-3;
2:1-3; 8:1-4; 11:22-25; 24:15-24; 33:
30-33.
The deported Israelites were estab-
to listen. They were styled “impudent
and hard-heai*ted.” Evangelizing is
rarely easy. Though the greatest
good is freely offered multitudes are
wholly indifferent to God’s gift of
love. For such an attitude Ekekiel was
prepared in advance. Rebuffs and open j
insults have usually been part of the
experiences of missionaries, but they
could always know that the greatest j
insult was thrown in the face of Je- [
hovah, whose representative they
were. “Adamant, harder than flint’’
was the attacking and withstanding
power of Ezekiel’s “forehead.’’ Their
indifference or even rebellion was not
to make him afraid.
For seven days the ambassador sat
in silence as men looked on and won
dered. Then they were told of the de
pravity he had to report from Jerusa
lem, where basest iniquities we^e still

center of the stage for evening, the
little garment is a most gracious ac-
accompaniment.

Skirts Feature Originality
Sometimes it is the sleeve, some
times the neckline or bodice treatment
that gives the costume its claim to
originality. But this summer it hap
pens to be the skirt.
With the idea of creating fullness
and novel ways in which to use it have
come all manner of irregularities.
Many soft layers cut in long points
distinguish the skirts of sheer even
ing and afternoon frocks. Tiers of
flounces or groups of set-in tucks or
godets become the chief trimming
motif for 4Ather madels. Floating pan
els and whisps of fabric attached low
on the skirt and transparent skirts
with short fronts and dipping back-,
lines—all these vagaries in design
find expression in the prevailing mode
which has quite forsaken its former
sheath-like plainness, and becomes
most decorative.

Thinks Calling of Extra Session Ac
complished Little. Other Mat
ters Are Discussed.
The calling of a special session of
congress to enact a farm relief meas
ure and to transact other pressing
legislative matters, was a mistake, ac
cording to the belief of Congressman
J. J. McSwain who doesn’t seem to be
pleased with the results of the short
session Mr Mc.Swain has returned to
his home and The Greenville News of
the past week published the following
with reference to his views:
No good has come of the special
term of congress recently closed, the’
administration making a mistake in
calling it and wrecking all hope of
constructive legislation by its manner
of conducting the session so far, ac
cording to Congressman J. J. McSwain
of Greenville, who recently returned
from the capital. He was accompanied
by his secretary, Dixon Davis.
“Only two committees out of 54 in
the house were organized,” Congress
man McSwain declared, “and conse
quently practically all members were
forced to sit idly by, doing nothing,
while awaiting reports from these
two bodies. With only the committees
on agriculture and ways and means
functioning, there was no hope of pro
gress.”
j Regarding farm relief, one of the
main objects of Presiden£ Hoover in
calling the session. Congressman Mc-
I Swain said that nothing had yet been
accomplished. “President Coolidge
would have ratified all measures five
or six years ago if congress had taken
action,” he declared. “From all indi
cations, President Hoover would have
i vetoed the debenture clause if it had
I been passed and I can see very little
benefit for farmers in what was done.”
I Demands for an investigation into
the Southern textile situation met
with little support, the congressman
said, general impression being that
the inquiry was not desired by textile
interests generally and was not con
sidered necessary.
Nothing was done along the line of
'placing an import duty on jute, it was
stated, although it is believed that
this would be a stabilizing influence
on the price of cotton. “Such action
would remove much low grade cotton
from the market and naturally tend
to improve prices somewhat,” Con-
gressman< McSwain stated.
Mr. McSwain said that his health
was much improved and that he is
gaining strength daily now after se
rious illness last spring.

The CottonMill Dollar
The following statement for the month of March, 1929, from one of South
Carolina’s most substantial wide-print cloth cotton mills, shows the percent
age of expense distributed to various accounts. More than half of the wide
print cloths made in America are produced in South Carolina. A mill of this
type illustrates the present status of mill operators and operatives, as regards
their shares in each dollar of gross sales.
The amount paid to the operatives absorbs nearly the entire gross profit
after deducting the other necessary expenses of interest, power, depreciation,
cotton, supplies, etc.
w¥ilis statement is taken from the hooks of a mill whi<di is
without plant debt. The mill equipment is modern and up-
to-date, with upwards of 70,000 spindles and 1,500 looms. ^
