I. Jesus Growing (v. 40).
While Jesus Christ was God, yet HI*
#elty did not Interfere with His de
velopment as a human being. The
pmsesses of Ills physical, mental and
•pirltual growth were the same as In
MjU«octtw4y-humwO" hoi
1. “Grew and Waxed Strong.” It
w«s necessary for His body to develop,
fils brain, nerves and muscles must
«ot only ^ttain unto their proper size
IKrt must come to act together, become
ton-elated.
2. “Filled With Wisdom.” His train
ing was largely In the hands of His
Bother. She was a Bible woman, as
•vlnced by her song of praise when It
was announced to her that God’s favor
wa*to : come upon her. She was, there
fore, a suitable teacher. She, no doobt,
taught Him to commit Bible verses to
memory and taught Him the great
•torles of the Old Testament from the
creation through the patriarch* and
prophets.
S. "And the Grace of God Was Upon
Him.” By the grace of God doubtless
fc mean*. God’s loving favor and tender
rare.
II. Jaaus Tarrying Behind at Jeru
salem (vv. 41-43).
At the age of twelve years the Jew
ish child took His place as a wor
shiper In the temple. He was then
considered “a child of the law." Being
ivnsdous of fils mission, when His
mother and Joseph were returning
from attendance at the Passover, Jesus
tarried behind In the temple and In
quired Into the meaning of the ordi
nances of God'g house. He had an
alert, eager mind which Inquired after
truth, especially the truth concerning
His Father’s house. His heart yearned
for His Father.
fH. Jmus Found In the Temple (w.
44-47).
When His mother and Joseph had
gone some distance on their return
Journey they perceived that Jesus was
not with them and sought for Him
among their kinsfolk and acquaint-
iinces. Not finding Him there, they re
turned to Jerusalem, where they found
Him In the temple.
1. He Wag Sitting (v. 46). This
shows that He was no passing visitor
er sightseer. He was perfectly at
home In His Father’s house.
2. He Was Hearing the Teachers of
God’s Word (v. 46) This shows that
He was eager to learn God’s will.
3. He Asked Questions (v. 46). His
growing mTniTwas Inquisitive, ft more
than received what was taught It
Inquired after truth]
4. He Answered Questions (v. 47).
Tils answers showed great wisdom,
such as to astonish those who heard
Him, yet we should not surmise that
He was consciously displaying tfis wis
dom. It was not an exhibition of His
divine wisdom, hut the expressl6n of,
the workings of a perfect human mind
suffused by the Holy Spirit.
IV. Mary’s Complaining (vv. 48-50).
She remonstrated with Him for His
behavior. To this He replied In a dl^
nlfled, yet tender manner. He made
no apology, showing that He was more
than the son of Mary. God was His
Father. Though Mary did not under
stand these things, as a wise mother
she kept them In her heart.
V. Jesus’ Obedience (v. 51).
Though He was fully conscious of
His divine being and mission he lived
a life full of filial obedience, thus
tea'chlng us that obedience to parents
Is pleasing to God and a duty which
will be discharged faithfully by fhoeo
who have the Spirit of Christ.
VI. Jesus’ Development (v. 52).
1. Mental. He Increased In wisdom.
Although the divine nature was united
with the human, the human was left
free to develop as a normal human
mind.
2. Physical. He Increased In statnre.
This shows that His body developed
according to the lawg of a normal hu
man. ;
3. Spiritual. He Increased In favor
with God and man. As His mind in-
creefed. ami His apprel^enshm of God
hecaBe more full, the Hlvlne Being
could more fully* expacae Himself
through Him and, as the perfect Ufft
was lived, men could recognise In Him
superior qualities tnid, therefore their
hearts' would open to Him.

Rah for Grace!

Address of Dial
Son of Laurens County Gives Hearers
Review of Situation In
Washington.
Laurens, July 7.—Home folk, as
sembled in the county court house to
day by appointment, were addressed
by Senator Dial, who is spending part
of hi^ week off the campaign in Lau
rens at his home here.
The speech Whs made immediately
after the public sales, there being a
crowd present for the first Monday
sale and for the meeting in the court
house.
The senator gave a clear, compre
hensive review of his activities at
Washington, emphasizing many of
the measures in which he stood for
economy as against the attempted
exploitation of the treasury 'at the
expense of the taxpayers. Portions
of his address were in the nature of
a heart to heart talk with his home
people, and the speech was received
with evident approval.

A small still and about thirty gal
lons of mash, located on Cain Creek,
about three miles from Goldville, were
destroped last Monday by Sheriff
Reid and Rural Policemen C. L. Ow

found as to the owners and all efforts
failing to make an arrest, the officers
destroyed the entire outfit.

of prehistoric ages, have been found

The End.
Hand-to-Hawd Struggle
' A city cousin who had never been
on a fishing and camping trip came
out to his uncle’s farm equipped with
steel rod, reel, silk line and other
fancy equipment. After the first hour
of fishing in the old mud creek, he
hooked a small catfish. Desperately
he reeled it in until the tiny fish’s
nose was jammed up against the end
of the rod.
“What shall I do with it now?” he
asked Cousin John.
Surveying the catch in all serious
ness, John said: “Climb out on the
pole and stab it with that new hunter’s
knife of yours.”
