Edwards Auto Service Co. IN THS LONO Aim** Family and Throng: Meet With Martin tMPRMSD URTOKM INTER!(ATlOt U. Globe Fliers Arrive In America After Recent Escape From Death. Greeted By 5,000 People. Bellingham, Wash., May 25.—Major Frederick L. Martin, original com mander of the United States army globe encircling flight, whose plane was wrecked on the Alaska peninsula, April 30, arrived here this morning with his mechanic, Staff Sergt. Alva L. Harvey, on Pacific American fish eries steamship Catherine D., from Port Moller, Alaska. The fliers step per ashore amid the cheers of 5,000 persons. The major and his mechanic were under orders from General Mason N. Patrick, chief of the army air service, to proceed to Washington, D. C., with out delay. Major Martin plans to re main here with his family tonight, going to Seattle tomorrow, where he will rejoin Harvey, who expected to go to Seattle today. Mrs. Martin and her eight year old son, Bobby, met the major at 8:30 o'clock this morning at Lummi Island, about ten miles out from Bellingham. The Catherine D. stopped there an hour earlier to permit newspaper men and photographers to come aboard. The family was reunited aboard the cannery tender Nile, which carried the major’s wife and boy. It was a joyous meeting, the boy tackling his father’s leg, while Mrs. Martin em braced him. A mirage was blamed by Major Martin for his misfortune after leav ing Chignik. “Shortly after leaving Chignik I saw what appeared to be water and thought it was the Pacific,” he said. “1 traveled toward it for some time and finally it disappeared. Then I realized it was mirage which I had been following. It had taken me off my course in a northwestly direction. “The weather was foggy and the clouds were low, probably 600 feet between the snow covered ground and the clouds. I changed my course head ing south but suddenly hit the north side of the mountain. Had we hit ten feet lower we would have struck an abrupt cliff and would probably both have been killed but as It was, we crashed on a gradual slope of the mountain and the planc^slid up about 100 feet, tearing it to pieces.” Harvey was uninjured, but Martin broke a small bone in his nose and one eye was ^lightly injured. The men told of wandering, sleep less for three days, striking out on the trip which led them to a trapper’s cabin. They thought they were on the Pacific side of the peninsula in stead of the Bering sea side and their charts did not tell them of a cannery at Moller. * ji- Owing to a bit of good fortune at the time of the crash a bqttle of con densed liquid food called “Why,” two spoonsfuls of which are sufficient for a meal, escaped breaking although almdst eve- ything else was demolish^ ed. With this food supply available they were never hungry. When they reached the unoccupied trapper’s cab in they found more food. They also noticed a milk box with the letter ing “Paf, Port Moller,” upon it. This clue gave them much encouragement as it indicated Port Moller was not far away. Harvey said he was slightly snow blind the first few days following the wreck but recovered. Major Mar tin also suffered from snow blind ness, which grew steadily worse, and the last three days Harvey broke trail through the snow, leading Major MAtin to the beach along which fol lowing they came to the cannery. Harvey praised his superior as an ef ficient flier and Major Martin declar ed there is no better airplane mechan ician than Harvey. “If I thought the wreck was due to inefficiency on the part of the major j or because of faulty work on my part, *1 would never have broken through the snow to get‘back to civilization,” said Harvey. While the two men were out in the open, snow covered country, there was no wind, no snow and no rainfall for eight days but it stormed fiercely one day when they were in the cabin and on the day of thsir arrival at Pott Moller. Speaking of his future, Major Mar tin said he was eager to rejoin his command but would not care to take the place of any of the other three fliers on the final legs of the journey as they, he said, are entitled to the honor jf they are successful. The major said he experienced good flying weather in the north only one day and that day a hole in the crank case caused a forced landing after leaving Sitka. “If it had not been for that acci dent, I probably would be with the others yet,” he said.

GOLDEN TEXT—“RtghteouaneM ex- alteth a nation; but ala Is a reproach to any people."—Prov. 14:14. PRIMARY TOPIC—What a Boy King Did. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Destruction of Jerusalem. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—The Last Days of Jerusalem. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—A Nation In Rulna. I. The Sins of the Nation (w. 11-10). 1. Zedeklah, the King (vv. 11-13). (1) Insubordination to God’s prophet (v. 12). In the theocratic government of Israel God’s prophet occupied s higher place than the king himself. The prophet was God’s messenger. In stead of receiving Jeremiah as God’s messenger and conforming his life to God's win, as made known by the prophet he refused to humble him self before God. (2) Rebellion against Nebuchadnez zar (v. 13). Zedeklah was made king of Judah by the king of Babylon but, In spite of this kindness and the word of the Lord spoken to him by Jere miah (Jer. S8:1T, 18; 02:3), he re belled against the king of Babylon. (S) He stiffened his neck and hardened his heart against God (v. 13) . Those who rebel against rightly constituted authority soon are resist ing the will and grace of God. 2. The Priests and People (vv. 14-10). (1) They followed the heathen (v. 14) . Even the priests who ministered In the house of God were practicing the sins of the heathen nations sur rounding them. (2) They polluted the honse of the Lord (v. 14). The house of the Lord was sacred, having been dedicated to the Lord and consecrated to His serv ice. For priests to officiate while llv- Ing^llvp ^ Impurity was pollution to (3) They mocked God's messengers (▼. 10). Instead of receiving them as from God, they mocked them. (4) They despised God’s word <v. 10). To set at naught God’s counsel Is to despise His word (Prov. 1:25). (5) Misused God's prophets (▼. 16). They not only mocked them but Im prisoned some and slew others. This they persisted In until God could no jonger restrain His wrath. II. The Judgment Fade (w. 17-21). 1. Slaughter by the Sword (v. 17). So severe did this judgment fall that the King of the Chaldees slew young men even in the house of the sanctu ary and “had no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man or him that stooped for age.” 2. The Treasures and Sacred Ves sels Carried to Babylon (v. 18). This Included, not only the treasures of the house of the Lord, but of the king and his princes. 3, Burned the House of God (v.10). This was the sacred temple built by Solomon with certain additions and modifications. 4. Broke Down the Walls of Jerusa lem (v. 10). The aim In this was to render the walls useless as a means of defense. 5. Burned the Palaces (v. 10). It would seem that the common houses were left for the poor people w T ho rs< tnained in the land. 0. Destroyed All the Goodly Vessels (v. 10). This would mean that the palaces were plundered of all that was valuable. 7. Carried the People Into Captivity and Made Slaves of Them (v. 20). Those'* who had escaped the sword were now carried away and^enslaved. It would seem that a number of peo ple had deserted to the Babylonians. From II Kings 26:12 we learn that the poorest of the people were left In the land. Those who would not like ly make any trouble were left as vine dressers and husbandmen. Since the custom was to colonize conquered ter ritory by foreign peoples, the object In leaving the poor people was that the country might be ready and over these people Gedaliah was appointed with headquarters at Mlzpeh. When the walls were broken Zedeklah fled by night, his object being doubtless to crqss the Jordon at Jericho and hide in the mountains east of Jordan. He was overtaken in the plains of Jericho (II Kings 26:9) by the Chaldean army. He was captured and taken to the king of Babylon who was at Rib- lab, a town north of Damascus. Zede klah was tried before Nebuchadnez zar, his eyes were put out, he wag hound with fetters of brass, and car ried away to Babylon, where he re mained a prisoner until the day of his death (Jer. 52:11).
