Scientists studied the earth’s mag netic currents, as affected by the eclipse. Every ship’s captain noticed that the eclipse had an effect on the compass. Science does not know why. Possibly some scientists got from this eclipse the most important infor mation of all, which has to do with the amount of radium in the sun. The sun’s length of life and the lives of this and other planets de pend on the sun’s radio-active force. If the sun were merely burning up, as was once supposed, the life of human beings here might be cut down a few u wtoaa it I probably go on for seV^faL hun dred million year's, aided by radium energy in the sun. Coal! Coal! Coal! Bishop the Right Reverend William Montgomery Brown, of Cleveland, is put out of the church. Accused of being unorthodox, he protested, “I believe in God.” But that was not enough, and he is out. Bishop Brown’s exact description of God in which he believes would be interesting. One small boy, asked to describe God, replied instantly: ‘‘He’s got a long white beard, and high-top boots.” That was perfectly respect ful. It described the boy’s highest ideal.

Many human beings imagine a God, somewhat as that little boy imagined him, with a beard that might need trimming, boots to be mended, etc. WhaT is the Right Reverend Bishop’s idea of a Supreme Being managing such a universe as this, with time and space unlimited, millions of suns and planets, constant change everywhere, with everything whirling and flying around and nowhere any comfortable stability ? Can any human mind really have any but a childish conception of such a being 7 \ Our navy heads might give the country information on a statement recently published by English papers. The British have arranged their ships so that they can take in water bal- by making the ship tip over, raise the guns to the desired elevation and in crease their range without actually changing the mechanical adjustment of the guns That seems to be highly ingenious, but of course, we can’t do it in this country because probably somebody in Europe would object. t. Hia Prayer for Himself (vv. 1-5). Fully conscious that the hour of His crucifixion was at hand He prayed to the Father saying, “Glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify lyhee.” His coming Into the world had as its Supreme mission the glorification of the Father. In order that the Father :ht be glorified It was necessary the Shn should be'glorified. L To Him Had Been Given the Pow er to Give Eternal Life, to God’s Chosen Ones (vv. 2, 81). Eternal life is knowledge of and a right relation to the true God and Jesus Christ. Thus we see that eternal life Is a re lationship and not an entity. 2. He Declared That He Had Fin ished the Work Committed Unto Him (v. 4). The definite work which He came to do was to give eternal life to the chosen of God. II. His Prayer for Hia Immedlata Disciples (vv. 6-19). 1. Their Preservation (vv. 9-10). He did not pray that they would be taken out of the world but that they might be kept from the Evil One. It Is not the divine will thrt we go to heaven at once when we believe because: (1) Christ needs our ministry. Those who have been made partakers of the divine life are His represents- tives in the world. (2) We need His grace strength ened and developed In us. Heaven is a prepared place and only those who have been prepared for it can be ad mitted Into it. (3) The world needs us. Christ de clares that the disciples are the light of the world, the salt bf the earth (Matt. 5:16). Only as the light of the Lord shines forth through the dis ciples can the people In the world find their way. 2. Their Sanctification (w. 17-19). (1) Sanctify means: First, to set apart; that means then that the dis ciples were to be set apart to do the gCh second, to cleanse; those who are’ set L* GIFTS THAT LAST I. B.

MOVES HOUSES A great surety company advertises $100,000 regard for the return of a million dollar’s worth of bonds stolen. It says it will pay ten per cent of the face value of any bond stolen, whenever it is obliged to make good* insurance on such bonds. That’s interesting news to bond bandits and holdup men. It stabilizes their industry. It guarantees them $100,000 of good safe cash on a mil lion dollar bond robbery. But what about the laws against compounding felony ? It is proposed to create an ‘‘air port” for New York by roofing over the yards of Pennsylvania railroad. Temporary landing and leaving places for fliers might thus be provided in many cities. That ought to he done. Automobile roads, without grade crossings, could he easily provided, making a roadway above railroad tracks, running out through city su burbs. Railroads should be properly compensated, of course. Makeshift airports will soon be out grown, however. Before you die, in every big city, the week-end will see thousands of flying “club cars,” each with its load of passengers, flying off to mountains, or seaside, in summer; to Florida, California, etc., in winter. The Philadelphia Mint begins coin ing 5,000,000 half-dollar coins to commemorate the courage of General Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and others, and the carving of the great memorial on Stone Mountain, near Atlanta. These coins have a meaning even more important than their meaning as memorials of courage and artistic enterprise. They establish even more firmly the fact that the Civil War be longs to an age that is past. And they will be prized in the North even more highly than in the South. secono.io Cleanse; im/w wuu me nm apart as His representatives need the special cleansing grace to make them vessels fit for the Master’s use. (2) The instrument used (v. 17). They were to be sanctified through God’s truth. God’s truth Is His Word. (8) The purpose (v. 18). They were sanctified In order that they might be qualified for His service In the world. (4) Jesus’ own sanctification was for that purpose (v. 19). He is the grand example. III. His Prayer for His Future Die- clplee (vv. 20-26). L Their Unifiestlpp (vv. 20-23). His great concern was that all believers should be united. (1) The grand pattern of this spir itual union Is the union that exists between the Father and the Son (v. 21). (2) The incentive making possible ^his union (v. 22). The vision of the glory of God In Christ (II Cos. 8:18) Is the grand Incentive which unites the believers. (8) The purpose (v. 28). The su preme objective in the unification of the believers is to convince the world that God sent Jesus Christ to save It 2. Their Glorification (w. 24-26). The disciple of Christ enjoys fellow ship with the Father and the Son and fellowship with his fellow believer, but he also looks forward to tbo time when he shall be glorified. (1) “I will that they be with Me where I em" (v. 24). There Is a pres ent glory enjoyed by believers. (a) They are now children of God, although It dpes not yet appear what they shall be. (b) They now possess eternal life and therefore shall never perish. While there is the present glory, Jesus wants His disciples to be with Him In Heaven. He said, “Except a grain of wheat fall into the ground and die. It abldeth alose." We can reverently say that unlHM the believer Is taken to Heaven Christ will be lonely. (2) “Behold my glory” (v. 24). The believer shall share the Ineffable glory of Christ (I John 3:1-8). Hi The Master-Word The master-word of Christianity la love.
