FACE TWELVE
MADE WORK EASIER
Cliaion People Are Pleased to Learn
How It Has Been Doi|e.
It’s pretty hard to attend to duties
With a constantly aching back;
With annoying urinary disorders.
Doan'S Pills have made work easier.
So thousands have gratefully testi-
They’re for bad backs.
They're for weak kidneys.
Clinton people gratefully recom
mend Doan’s.
Ask your neighbor!
W. J. Duncan, E. Carolina Ave.,
Clinton, says: “Farming caused my
back to trouble me as I had to do
a great deal of hard work. Every-
time I stooped, a sharp catch took
me in my kidneys. At night I
couldn’t rest well on account of the
pams through my kidneys and when
I got up mornings my back was stiff
and sore, and I felt as tired as
though I hadn’t had a bit of rest. I
waa finally convinced it was my kid
neys that caused the trouble. They
acted too freely. A friend advised
me to try Doan’s Pills and I got
some. They were just fine and in
a short time they rid me of the
trouble.’’

Unless Country Arouses Support,
Senator Walsh Declares In Talk
To Women Veters.
Buffalo, N. Y., April 27.-—The pro
posal for American participation in
the world court is as “dead as Cae
sar” unless the country can be arous
ed to its support, Senator Walsh
(Democrat) of Montana, declared here
tonight 'in an address to the League
of Women Voters.
“Unfortunately it is associated, in
its origin, with the league of nations,”
Senator Walsh said. “Enough. Away
with it.” r
“Singularly enough the proposal
commended by two Republican presi
dents, including the suggestions as
to reservations, has the concurrence
of every Democratic member of the
senate save the few who were oppos
ed to the covenant of the league of
nations, and yet it lies moribund be
fore the committee on foreign rela
tions without having any part in any
known program of the majority party
for the work of the current session or
any session, for that matter, a sub
ject of jest indeed, with most of those
influential in thd framing of such a
program.”
Describing the relation of the world
court to the league of nations, Sena
tor Walsh said the United States was
free to submit or not to submit any
controversy' to the court. America,
may say at any time without offense,
he added, that the particular contro
versy is of a class according to which
the settled policy of the United States
is never submitted to the determina
tion of any ^xibunal or it may de
cline to submit without offering any
reason.
“Now what is the objection to our
joining the other nations of the earth
in upholding this agency for peace,
feeble though it may be?”-asked
Senator Walsh. “Bear in mind all
we are asked for is to give to the
court our moral support and to con
tribute our pittance to the expense of
maintaining it for our nation is now
a competent suitor before the court,
being mentioned in the annex to the
league covenant.' We are asked to
give it our cordial approval instead
of standing on the side lines, and
sneering at it. Again the league.”
• “Unwarranted expectations are in
dulged^ in by many,” Senator Walsh
said, “with respect to the worldr c<fartT , |
U. sttrrtes tio assurance Vhatever of
world peace. It is but a feeble step
to that end, a tribunal in which some
controversies which might lead to war
may be determined and thus war
averted. Remember that as between
the great powers it will deal with no
controversies except such as they
may care to submit and from its very
constitution will deal only with con
troversies of a justifiable character,
not with non-justifiable controversies,
the more likely of the two to lead
to war.
“So we do not progress very far,
even if we should give our hearty ap
proval to the world court. We hesi
tate to take even that feeble step,
remembering that we were once ask
ed to go much farther. We even re
frain from active and open participa
tion in those activities humanitarian
and social in character being conduct
ed by and through the league be
cause it is found, by the rest of the
world, a convenient agency for the
conduct of work of that nature rer.,
quiring international cooperation.”
Dwelling at length on the effects
of European unsettleraeijt on Ameri
can agriculture and business, Senator
Walsh asked that cooperation for na
tions wherever possible. He stated,
however, that he was not making a
plea for entrance of America into the
league.
“I do not plead for a reversal of"
the verdict through which the United
States declined membership in the
league,” he said. “I plead for the
active participation by our govern
ment in any effort which may be
made through jt (the league) or any
other channel to bring about 9 resto
ration of normal industrial activity
in Europe and to estubliah a state of
actual peace among them in every
case in which it is reasonably safe to
do so without entangling ourselves in
their quarrels.”
Pointing out that the United States
long had had an unofficial observer
with the reparations commission,
Senator Walsh declared that if con
gressional authority were necessary
to such participation, it ought to be
asked and freely granted, “subject to
such restrictions as may seem neces-
sary to insure us against involvement
in schemes of national aggrandize-
m^nt or like controversies distinctly
political in character.”

ASSYRIAN EXILE OF ISRAEL
LESSON TEXT—II Kings 17:1-11.
GOLDEN TEXT—“I will delight my
self In Thy statutes: I will not forget
Thy word.”—Ps. 11S:1«.
PRIMARY TOPIC—How a Little Olrl
Helped a Great Soldier.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Israel Driven Into
Exile.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
IC—A Nation Punished for Ite Sins.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP-
IO—Lessons From Israel’s Downfall.
I. Israel Taken Into Captivity (w.
1-0).
Thiy w(is In fulflMm’ent of that which
Amos had predicted In the days of
Jeroboam II at a time when the nation
was at the height of Its prosperity.
The northern kingdom was ruled by
nineteen kings, all of whom, were
wicked. Their wlckednesrf was not be
cause of lack of Information or op
portunity but In spite of , it. God
promised the first king His blessing
If he would he loyal to Him. Jero
boam departed from God and the apos
tasy thus begun continued downward
to the end. In the reign of Hoshea,
the last king, the king of Assyria came
and besieged Samaria and carried the
children of Israel captive to Assyria,
from which they never returned.
'll. The Sins Whlchf Caused Their
Qoom (vv. 7-18).
1. Conformed to the Ways of the
Heathen (vv.7-9). God had command
ed them not to fbllow in the ways of
the heathen, but these Israelites, In
stead of maintaining lives of sepa
ration, secretly did that which was
displeasing to God. Secret sins, as
snrely as open sins, bring rain, for ail
things are naked and open to Him
with whom w« have to do. The One
who vialta Judgment upon the sinner
knows all things.
2. Serve Idols (vv. 10-17). They not
only compromised by “walking In the
statutes of the heathen” hut wor
shiped their gods. It waa a short
step from following In the statutes of
the heathen to worahlplng their gods.
Before they worshiped Idols they cast
off the true God. Indeed Idolatry came
Into the world because the race did
not wish to retain God In Its affections
(Romans 1:21-23). Idolatry did not
come In through Ignorance but through
perversetswm. People today
worshiping false gods have first cast
off the authority of the living God.
Man is a religions being. When he
ceases to worship the true God he
worships other gods.
3. They Were Rebellious (vv. 13-15).
God by his prophets has said unto
them, “Turn ye from your evil ways,
and keep my commandments,” but
they stubbornly refused His testlimmy,
even rejected His statutes. God In
love tried to save them. He sent some
of the noblest and best prophets who
ever spoke to men to persuade them
to turn from their sins, such as Eli
jah and Elisha, but they stiffened
their necks and plunged deeper into
wickedness. This they did In defiance
of God.
_ 4, Caused Their Sons and Daughters
to Pass Through Fire (v 17). This
was the dreadful Molech worship, the
roost cruel rite of heathen worship. It
was done by kindling a fire in a hob
low metal Image until Its arms were
red hot and placing live children there
in to be burned to death. This was
the depth to which the Israelites had
musk., ,
5. Resorted to Magical Practices
(v. 17). Whffi faith in the true God
wanes men always turn to the magical
arts. In this way the Israelites sold
themselves to evil In the sight of the
Lord and provoked Him to anger.
III. Tho Judgment Falls (v. 18).
At this stage of the drama the cur
tain dropped. God could not be inac
tive longer.
1. God Was Very Angry. His anger
Is not raving fury but the revulsion
of His holy nature against sin. God
fimnot tolerate sin In His presence.
His wrath must strike. Though He
waits long, the debt mast be paid and
that always with compound Interest.
There Is only one way to escape God’s
wrath; that is to turn from sin unto
God through Jesus Christ
2. Remove Them Out of His Sight
The land of Palestine Is regarded as
the land of God’s sight—that Is, the
place of His manifested presence.
These people are still scattered
among the nations and as a political
organization they will never return
to their land. Tho judgment was se
vere, but not mors so than the sins
merited. God had waited long. The
despising of His grace eventually
works rain. Therefore, what judgment
mast fall npon the people who in the
light of this day reject His grace and
His mercy.

Practical Christianity
“Go," never spells “Stay.” We need
more religion In the s-o-l-e, as well as
la tbs soul—a walking as well as a
talking religion. The trouble Is not
so’much with non-church-golng masses,
as the non-gplng church. We need
not only a lookout committee but a
“Go-out” committed—H. G. Glbbud.
