How much the debtor owed; how much he was likely to product In bankruptcy; how much the dividend would be; whether It would pay better to take Ml per cent and get rtd of a potential rl\al. or get 75 and let him start again with • dean sheet, or give him lota of time to par in full.

A bit of grated cheese is a popular resource In this direction, but Its effectiveness is frequently lost by Improperly selected or poor cheese. Ordinary cheese will naturally re sult in an ordinary dish. Few cooks seem to-know that genuine -Hwlas cheese, which has an aro matic Alpine flavor peculiar to it self, will transforjn a commonplace dish Into something so tasty and delicious that it will scarcely be recognised. , And aside from Its flavor. Jt adds greatly to the nutri tional value of the food. The Swit zerland cheese may be added to any dish to which cheese is ordinarily used.

In these wells Is placed a sauce made by mixing together one half cupful of grated Switzerland cheese, one quarter cupful of chili sapee. a dash of Worcestershire sauce, with salt and paprika to tasre. The craters are plated undtTlhe broiler until they brown 'lightly and the sauce bub hies and flows down the sides.

GOLDEN TEXT—He must Increaae, but I must decrease. * PRIMARY TOPIC*—John Tells About Jesus. JUNIOR TOPIC—John Welcomes and Baptizes Jesus.** _ INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP ICS—John Prepares the Way for Jesus YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—John Heralds the Mighty One. In order to understand the lessons for the first six months of the year It is necessary to grasp the central pur pose of the Gospel according to Mark. In the Old Testament is set forth an august portrait of Jesus Christ. He Is the Branch, the King (Jer. 23:5); the Branch, the Servant (Zech. 3:8); the Branch, the Man (Zech. 6:12); the Branch of the Lord (Isa. 4:2). The fourfold account In the New Testament called the Gospels, placed alongside of the Old Testament pre dictions, (Hayexactly. Matthew pre sents Him as the King; Mark, the Servant of the Lord; Luke as the Kinsman Redeemer and John as the Son of God. The theme of Murk is the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God (ch. 1:1). The word gospel means Jesus means “Savior." Christ means “Anointed.” It Is good news therefore because It Is the good tidings that God has anointed Jesus Chrlrt to be the Savior of tlie world. The key verse Is Mark 10:45, “The Son of Man came not to be minis tered unto but to minister and to give Hit life a ransom for many." The key words are, "straightway," “forthwith," “immedlab I. WhoJ* Jesus Christ (1:1)? He Is none other than God’s Be loved Son. II. The Forerunner of Jezus Christ (vv. 2-8). 1. Who he was (vv. 2,3). He was John, the Baptist, who ivas prophesied of more than five hundred years before (Isa. 40:3). His mission was to prepare the way for Christ’s comLngf. He represented himself .as but a voice of one crying In the -wilderness. He was therefore God’s voice sounding forth the divine will and purpose. He was content to be hut a voice. 2. John’s message (vv. 3-8). • (1). Prepare ye the way of the Lord (jr. 3). It was customary for servants to go before distinguished personages and prepare the road over which they were to travel. In this preparation there was to be removal of stones, the leveling of the surface, etc. John’s message meant therefore that the peo ple should remove from their hearts everything which hindered the Incom ing of the Lprd. ““ (27 ‘The baptism of repentance (v. 4). In preparation for the coming Christ the people were to repent of their sins. Those who repented were to he baptised. Baptism was to he adtnin- istered to th«n*e who repented as an expression of penitence which led to forgiveness of sin. (3) The coming of the Messiah (vv. 7. 8). The coining one was to be much greater than jjlniself; so great that John was unworthy to loose the Iptches of HIs shoes. ‘The mperior dignity of Christ was not only in HIs person bat In the work He whs to (terform. 3. His success (v. 5). People from all over Judea and Jerusalem went out and were baptized. Ills food and dress Indicated that he had withdrawn from the world as a protect against its follies and sins. III. The Baptism of Jesus Christ (vv. Ml). Jesus was not baptized because He had sinned and therefore needed re pentance, hut because He was now about to accomplish a work which would constitute the basis of all rlghteousnese. He waa now dedicat ing Himself to the task of bringing In rlghteo'^tpess through His sacrificial death. (1) The opened heavens. This In dicated Ilia connection with heaven. (2) The descent of the Spirit upon Him. This gave the divine seal to His work. (3) The - voice of approval from heaven. Thla made clear to John tlie fact that JeMis was the Messiah. clinTrs In one corner oT Hifi room and call it a steamboat." They trail through tlie house; they leave mai^s on the walls.

Punishment Not Given for the Child’s Goodl That most children are punished not to make them better but because the parent is angry or has had his ego wounded is revealed by Winthrop D. Lane, writing in the Delineator Maga zine. “Parents have certain/pictures of themselves," points out Mr. Lane, “cer tain conceptions of themselves, and they do not like to have these dis turbed.
