A signal victory here would put the Israelites in control of the land. Failure here would mean Ir retrievable ruin. I. Jericho Shut Up (vv. 1-5). The Caan&nltea felt secure because Jericho, was strongly fortified from the south. Approach to the city from the east was not thought of as the Jordan river was a harrier. The miraculous crossing of the Jordan by the Israelites and their surrounding the city of Jericho greatly alarmed the people—“Therefore none went out and none came In." 1. God’s promise to Joshua (v. 2). “I have given into thine baud Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.*’ Because of this promise from the Lord their faith had a firm basis. r 2. God’s Instructions (vv. S-5). They were to encompass the city with seven priest* bearing trumpets of rams’ horns. The ark. a symbol of the Divine Presence, went before the people. They encompassed the city once a day for six days and on the seventh day they encompassed It seven times. When the last circuit was made the priests were to give a long blast of the trumpets and ttie people were to gpont with a great shoot and the walls of Jericho were to fall down II. Tha Obedience of the People (w. 6-16). They advanced according to the di rections of their lender, for they were going forth according to the command of the Lord. To the natural eye the means employed were very Inade quate. even foolish.. If they bad looked at the Inadequacy of tbe means- In themselves, they no doubt would have faltered, but they Itelieved that He \vlw» hnd given the orders wonld fight for them. Ja»hua wild bis peo|iIe set «»ut at once to oliey the divine di rections. The i-eeplc marched around tbe city every day for si* days. ThU, no doubt. Mti» -v-rr tcrlng ty their faith.

EVen at the end of the sixth round tin the seventh day there was no change. Yew, fl*e seventh round brought no change until the very hist moment. At the mighty shout, accom panied with the Mowing of tniutuet*. the walls came tumhilng down. This Is the way of all works aivompllshed by faith. At the time when every thing seems against us. faith holds on nnd wins the victory. III. The Fall of Jericho (rv. 1720). At the end of the seventh day the seventh round hi.vlfg tieco made of the city, the long stlem'e was broken with a shout As ti.e walls crumhled down, the .Israelites rlninhered over them, slaying men. women and chil dren. They were not, to spare any thing save the gold, silver, brass and iroiVWlileti were to he saved for the treasury of the Lord. However, Tta- hnh and her household were saved 'according to the promise of the spies. This wonderful deliverance was calcu lated t** inspire the people with cour-, -age nhd enthnstnsni. They could now- see how God could fight for them nnd deliver them from their enemies. Also, it would strike terror In the henrts of the •Caaminltes. The blowing of the trumpets and shouting of that day with Its great victory is typical of the greater day when larger victories shall he won by the Almighty for His people, and even greater consterna tion will he struck into the hearts of the enemies of God s people (1 Thess. 17). I , Let ns learn of this whole lesson that spiritual victories are won upon principles and by means which are not sufficient in themselves. • Accord ing to human wisdom It is utter fool ishness (I Cor. 1:17-21)).- Elinor Gly® in If recent article of.thoe* wh o we nding tor a Ytfi. i : * !

Strange that she goes on creating her own calamity! The boy who is drinking knows that he is undermining his health, ruining his business prospects, and bringing grief to his parents. The fall is in evitable, and he,rides gaily towards it. -No advicet nor guidance seems to help him. V- The girl who persists in-imprudent conduct is ruining her own chances of happiness. For the sake, however, of some contrary, idea about her own independence, she goes headstrong forward. | Many a man in business pursues a jjblicy which in the end will ruin him, but he seems to keep it up in spite of all that anyone can say. There is many a husband who treats his family in a way that even tually will destroy their respect for him and alienate them from him. Nothing, however, prevents him from continuing his course of conduct. It would seem that there is no remedy for these determined miscre ants except the golden ax. There is a certain cumulative mo mentum in wrong headedness that drives people forward to their de struction, and how to stop this is serious question. far Firing Bonds The election held in ’Williston Fri day for the purpoae of determ whether or not the town should issu $30,000.00 worth of bond* for park af and Steele, la the eubjeet of tbe the excited factor awaiting purposes was carried by approxima'ItrtLrv ly three and a half to one.

N OT so many years ago railroad building meant the construction of new lines in sections of the country where rails had not been laid before. ^ . A new age in railroad building has come. This is a time of intensive development of railroad capacity within the territories already served. The Southern Railway System is handling today two and one half times as much freight traffic as it handled two decades ago. The increase in traffic in the next decade also will be great. Beyond a certain point no railroad can meet the increase in the demands made upon it without i increasing its facilities. # This means double tracking its lines—and in some places adding third and fourth tracks, ft must also build new and stronger bridges to support heavier train-loads; erect larger shops and terminals; and provide more and larger engines and cars. The Southern is developing intensively its present facilities, and it plans many more improvements in the coming years. Continued good earnings will maintain its credit and make it possible to carry out these plans. RAILWA c Ihe Southern SYSTEM the South
