LESSON TEXT: Ephesians 2~> '?3~ Ephesians G :104. GOLDEN TEXT: Let us love one another; for love is of God. ? 1 JOHN 4 :T. Paul in pracically all of his writ ings was practical and doctrinal, anc his letter to the Ephesians from which our lesson text is taken, does not vary in this regard, but Paul lived in the present time it would not be much of a stretch of the imagina tion to conclude that he would have ;(alt differently with the home life than he did with the people of his t ine. He doubtless would have ap proved of some fundamental princi ples such as "Grace" at the table. "Family Prayer," and "Co-operation" vmong the inhabitants of every home. From the lesson text we learn some :mportant truths: 1st, There should be mutual re- j spect with regard to the marriage j life. fo< without this marriage should !

Pan! in hi, letter, stresses Cli:i .ian ' r'. i:re ; bring your children u'> "'.!i j '?c r urturo and admonition of the L< rd." Here ;s a challenge f th.* head < of families. Are they allowing ' he.r children to "get experience," and 'hus brush aside the restraint^ of home ? What is the "nurture and admonit on ot tlie Lord?" Christian nurture ?? based on the Christianity of the home, and the means of Christian Trace must be invoked? the faithful observance of the Lord's day, faith ful attendance On church services, the 'ut day school and other allied or anizations, family worship and train ng ir> prayer, Bible reading and study, 'he use of good pictuiTr. and the ?'?act ice of neighborliness and help fulness. There is a challenge to the Amer an homes of today. Commenting on Horenco Kelly's article rublished he Century Magazine. Dr. Paul \Y.

Eight of the ten divisions have come through with over 90 percent on-time operation" a record to be justly proud of in view of tho fact that December, a month when train? I are greatly delayed account extr;> time necessitated at various stations due to loading and unloading of the extremely heavy mail, express and additional passengers making the trip for the holidays, taking more jtime than ordinary travel. The two divisions, just a fraction ; under the 'JO percent mark reached by the other eight divisions, is due to I the fact that an entire new section of one of the divisions was just open- | ed for passenger traffic during Dec ember, and, taking into consideration this fact, 00 per cent for such a divi i -ion is considered very good. j lias been very Interesting to those kee; ir.g a close w."'ch on tb?> varioi" divisions, the remarkable percentage each has been putting over in the past several months; meeting "irious handicaps due to construction of new Mindbed. installation ot new electric iutomatic block system, relaying of '.( avier rails to take care of heavier loads account increased business, re placing onf wooden bridges with teel, and many other facilities for w - leasing efficiency along the entire route, showing the result of co-oper .tion throughout.
