In this day and time of criticisms of the weekly newspapers by The State and th< News and Couiier, the kind remarks of two Rarnwell Madies a few days ago were indeed hearten ing. They were callers at The Peo ple-Sentinel office and in h aving, one very kindly remarked to the editor: “You are certainly giving us a good newspaper.” The other said: “And you are so liberal with your space jn ‘boosting’ church affairs and various other activities for the good of the community. Why, in going around with a local talent play, I find the attitude of the newspaper men in other towns so entirely different — they chaige for every little notice, whether for the church or any other organization. I didn’t really appre ciate our paper before.” The People-Sentinel is aware of the fact that the policy of many weekly newspapers is to class as paid adver tising notices of any entertainment where an admission fee is charged or articles are sold. From a business viewpoint, that is no doubt the cor rect policy. It has not, however, been the policy of The* People-Sentinel lie- cause the editor has always felt like this newspaper belongs to the com- We could also afford flying ma chines to protect those fightpig ships, which, in modern war, without flying machine protection, would be as help less as sheep among wolves, without shepherds or sheep dogs.

They saw Him giving Him self with absolute abandon to His work so tbe^y attempted to rescue Him forcibly by taking Him. from His work. 3. What they said (v. 21). “He Is beskJe • himself.” His passionate de votion to saving the lost seemed U* (era a kind of insanity. II. Jesus Opposed by the Scribes (vv. 22-30). 1. * Their charge (v. 22). They charged Him with casting oat demons by Beelzebub. According to Matthew 12:22-24, the Pharisees Joined the scribes In this charge. The occasion which provoked the charge l^as the healing of a man possessed with n demon.
