Tbs principal persons appearing in the quarter's lessons are Moms, Joshua, Caleb, Gideon, Ruth and Samuel. Two pupil* may be assigned to report on tSOtfie’ character, the one on the strthg points and the other on the week points. m. Ask .the members of the daas to bring a written report on each les son, giving thq principal fact and the leading lesson thereof. The fol lowing suggestions are offered: October S. Moees sought the help of Hobab In guiding Israel through the'Wilderness. Though Hobab was a shrewd child of the deoert, the Lord God was a better guide than be. Like Moees, ws should acknowledge the leadership of the Lord, even though it may mean confession of our own failure. October 10l Through unbelief spies were sent to Conaan. The majority report was brought by the ten spies. Joshua and Caleb recognised the dlffl- culties equally with the ten,' but be cause they had faith In God, coun- •Had taking poaeeaalon of the land. October 17. Because, of an act of disobedience Moees was debarred from entering the promised land. Though be had to suffer this loss, the Lord gave him a place In the very front rank of HI* prophet*. October 24. Upon Moses' retire ment and death, Joshua was appoint ed aa a new lender of Israel. Though God's servants die. Hia work goes on because the Lord has always In readi ness capable leaders. October SI. Bix awful woes are pointed out aa coming upon those who Indulge Id wine. The only safe atti tude toward the Intoxicating cup la not to look at It. not to come Into Its way; total- abstinence la enjoined upon allj November 7. Jericho, the key to the land of Canaan, fell prostrate through faith In God. Spiritual vic tories are won upon principles and by mean* wlUch are utterly foolish In themaelvri —<- • November 14. Because of Caleb's sterling character and hla loyalty to God, he came Into poaaeaalon of the Inheritance which God had choMO for him. November 21. In Joshua's farewell address he brought to the attention of Israel God's providential dealing with them and appealed to them U* renew their covenant with hla God. The people entered Into a formal cov enant at Shechem. In order to clinch this obligation Joshua wrote down their agreement in a book, and as a further help set up a large stone as a witness. November 28. Gldeon’a arm* waa reduced to 300. All who were cow ardly were permitted to withdraw. Other* unfit were likewlae permitted to withdraig. A small company trust ing God can win the vlcjory over a mighty boat. December 5. Ruth chose to be identified with the people of the Lord. Because of this choice she came into possession of the blessings of the true God and her name has become lift- mortal. December 12. Because God gave to Hannah a son in answer to her prayer, aha gave him up to service in the house of God. Dacambar’lS. As Samuel in his old ag* jus retiring from the plnce of judgeifalp InMsrael. he challenged the people as to the integrity of hla con duct among them. Everyone in public life should be ambitious to leave an untarnished record at the close of his Our Souls' Craving Our souls crave a perfect good; we feel the puli thitherward, we own the law that points in that direction.—Wil liam M. Salter. Seui-AihmmI Mftttmf of W. M. U. «t Denmark The Semi-Annual meeting o f the W. M. U. of the Barn well Baptist Association was held with the Denmark Church on Thursday, Dec. 2nd. At ten-thirty o’clock the meeting was opened with a beautiful devotional conducted^ by Mrs. S. G. Mayfield. A very cordial welcome was then extended to dele gates and visatott by Mrs. Gordan Steadman to which Mrs. A. S. Blan chard ihb^Y graciously responded. The business wad then taken up and many splendid refcxrts w|ere made. One of these which deserves special mention was made on Missien Study by the chairman of this department, Mrs.. H. M. Brabham, of Ehrhardt. This report showed what rapid strides our women are making Along this line. Then came the roll call of all the societies end that delegates reporting, each made a report of the work done in their respective societies during the past six months. Mrs. D. A. G. Ousts, vice-president of the Western Division of Sntath Carolina, of which the Barnwell Association is a part, gave a very helpful message to the convention. She began by quoting the watchword of the W. M. U. for the eneuiqjg (rear—“Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteous ness.” Her talk may be outlined as follows: 1. A gereral survey of the work of the W. M. U. in the Western Divis ion. (a) What has been accomplish ed in the past year, (b) The goal toward which we are working in the coming year. 2. The aim and end of all our work—SouTwinning, (a) Soul winning et home, (b) Soul winning abroad. She closed by urging all W. M. U. members to make greeter efforts in the future in order that our Mission ary work may not suffer. Mrs. B. D. Carter favored the convention with a » gospel message in song. Following this a splendid address was made by Rev. G. N. Smith on the subject “The Central thing in Christianity.” He emphasized the fact that the central thing in Christianity is winning ot hers to Christ and pointed out some of the causes why we eg Christians , many times fail to attract others to the Savior. He mentioned the fact that we faced a crisis in our mission ary work and made a very earnest appeal to u* as W. M. U. workers to go forward. It was indeed a soul- stirring message. '* One of the most inspiring features of the meeting was the message given by Mias Clifford Barrett, a mission ary from China, in which she gave a brief outline of the work she has been doing in China for the past five years. She told of some of the diffi culties met with and overcome and how souls were brought to knqw the Savior of the jrorld. She asked the prayers of the Christians people in this work. At the close of this we felt that we wanted to reconsecrate our lives to God and do more to bring in His kingdom. A very interesting demonstration was then given by the Bamberg W. M. S. in which they showed—“The way not to conduct a rociety and the- right way.” Hiis was splendid. Af ter a delightful luncheon was served the aftemon sok-ssion was taken up. The devotional was conducted by Mrs. C. K. Turner on the subject of prayer after which the Denmark Sunbeams gave an intj.esting demonstration, and following this the G. A. of Great Saltkehatchie, Ulmers, had quite an interesting little play-let followed by a song. Mrs. Leon Holly, of Aiken, was next on the program, but the writer had to leave just at this time bteing deprived of hearing Mrs. Holly. The meeting on a whole was one of the best in the history of the W. M. U.
