GOLDEN TEXT--Rigteousness exalt eth a nation; but sin Is a reproach to any people.-Prov. 14:34. According to Professor Beecher the extent of the period we have been studying during the last quarter is 332 years, from the death of Joshua B. C. 1434 to the reign of Saul, which began B. C. 1102. Though other chronologists may differ slightly, this is approximately correct. We may roughly divide this period into the republic of God and the king dom of man. In the first section we studied the period of the Judges, Barak, Gideon, Samson and Samuel; one prophetess, Deborah; also the priest Eli and his sons; Samuel and Ahiah; and Ruth, who was an ances tress of our great high priest. In the second section we considered Saul the king, and a prince, Jonathan, Saul's son. While the lessons may thus be roughly divided, yet we feel that a general review of the charac ters and the principal lesson to be learned from each will perhaps be the most profitable form of review. There are four things to be said about each character and his relation to the events occurring in Israel: (1) The people had departed from God; there was disobedience and a reli gious decline. (2) God permitted on the part of Israel's enemies oppression that finally became unbearable. (3) There was repentance on the part of the people and an appeal to God for help. (4) God raised up a judge who "saved" the people and through this Judge wonderful acts were performed showing his power and the favor which rested upon Israel. The adult classes can profitably discuss such questions as, "Why did the people so easily forsake God?" "Why and how did their repentance so quickly lead to their deliverance?" "How did God help the people to return unto him?" "What were the methods and the prin ciples used in God's punishment of the people's sins?" "Was this form of government in vogue a failure!" Coming to the second section, many questions suggest themselves: "What advantages and opportunities did Saul, the first king, have?" "How did his failure begin?" "What was the es sential difference between the king dom of Saul and the Republic of God under the Judges?" "What are the outstanding characteristics of Jona than's life and character?" "What great message for today do these characters and these two forms of government have?" Doctor Torrey suggests a profitable form of reviewv, viz., a doctrinal review: (1) The teachings of the lessons of the past quarter about Jehovah and the Holy Spirit; (2) The preview, types and manifestations of the Lord Jesus; (3) The teaching about sin and the particular sins mentioned; and (4) The teachings about the word of God. Of course to do all this, or to follow any part of these suggestions will de mand that much work shall be as signed in advance and that great care shall be exercised to make any one of these lines a connected and inter esting whole. Above all, beware of attempting too much lest the schol ars become confused. If someone can be secured who is moderately successful in using the blackboard an interesting review can be presented to younger scholars by making a drawing presenting a "hall of fame,'- with panels for Deborah, Gideon, Ruth, Samuel and Jonathan. Another drawing may, by comparison, be termed the "rogues' gallery," and may have in it panels for Samson, Eli, Eli's sons, and Saul. Then tell, as simply as possible, the salient points in the history of each and show how God approved or disapproved of their lives; which wvere used, and which set aside. Any school can have be fore it on a chart or a blackboard the following: The lessons, chief persons, chief facts are given in order. 1. Joshua, Iraelites, Judges; a great patience. 2. Deborah, Barak, Sisera; a great deliverance. 3. Gideon, Angel of Jehovah; a great call. 4. Gideon, The Three Hundred; a great test. 5. Manoah, Samson; a great failure. 6. Naomi, Ruth, Orpha; a great re solve. 7. Eli, Samuel, Jehovah; a great vision. 8. Philistines, Israelites, Eli; a great capture. 9. Samuel; a great victory. 10. Samuel, Saul; a great honor. 11. Nahashi, Saul; a great rescue. 12. Jonathan, Armor bearer; a great hero. If written work is asked for be care ful not to assign too much and, as far as possible, assign different tasks to individuals of a given class. It would be an inspiration to have a number of girls of the early teen age each to read a brief essay on one of the female characters of the past quart'er's lessons, also to have a num ber of boys selected to do the same for each of the important male char acters we have studied. There is no lack of subject matter for this ~i a period in the history of [sraeh that teems with life and actir 'ty.

Civic Pride and Advertising It is a matter of civic pride to upport the manufacturer and nerchant who advertises. These men are the "push theads." They are the builders who are telping the county. They are naking it a better place to live in The merchants and business nen who do not advertise are imply carried along by the other haps' energy.
