I THUMDAT. NOVEMBER 1, |»28. —^ i vi W«WB Sctmtlessw International Sunday School Lesson for November 4 WORLD'S TEMPERANCE SUNDAY Jk # Homans 13:1-10, 13, 14 Rev. Samuel D. Price, DJD. This quarterly Temperance Lesson comes on World's Temperance unday, just before the national election. Scientific temperance teach- in g is a part of the curriculum in the public schools in every state in the Union. By all these means the growing youth of every generation are taught that alcohol is a poison and should not be used for bever age purposes. Such education is a world matter, for right is absolute and not relative. The nations oi vtt earth are loolnng to the U. S. A. to note the outcome of the greatest experiment in opposing the organ ised liquor traffiic that has ever been tried in the World. A quarter of a century ago temperance was a decidedly unpopular sub j)*ct. Today it is about the biggest item of interest in the country. . T his letter to the Romans was written from Corinth, a most licen tious city where liquor was used most freely to help the abandon in immoralities. Corinth was the play ground for the Romans and there they sought to outdo the worst in the Imperial city. With all that in mind Paul calls attention to the high place that rulers should have in the estimation of the people. Their omce was always to be respected for all power, in the last analysis, was derived from God. Taxes, though excessive, were not to be thought of as extortions but as their just obligation in helping to provide for their own benefits as .well as for the common good. If only they would purpose to keep the law they would have no ill will toward either the law or those wb o were enforcing it. They could think back to what Jesus had said: “Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s.” / T he law of God was held very definitely before them. Anything t iat tended to hurt their neighbor must be avoided. This is finely stated for every age in the injunction: “Owe no man anything, save to love one another.” The very opposite of this is the result when any one makes use of alcohol as a beverage. Alcohol is inherently a poison and its reaction is uniform. Personal liberty ceases as an argu- ment when our neighbor is hurt by what we give or sell him. Society is injured when one, claiming independence of action, causes damage or ?Y en < i an 8 cr to those who have a right to live in safety. That part of the Ten Commandments which deals with neighborly rekitionships is brought in review.’ Then all is summarized in “Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself.*’ Having lived at least two years in Corinth on his previous missionary journey and now again for three months, Paul is necessarily familiar with causes of evil. From his sad experiences he tells them about conduct that is so hurtful as he says: “Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; not in chambering and wan tonness, not in strife and jealousy.” The Corinthians had been making provision for the flesh not only to its destruction but also the loss of spiritual life itself. Morals are improved, business advances, money saved, life - - • • . ...... given up. jrotected just in « # * * -w —^ proportion as alcoholic beverages are tinuously proves this. The development pro The statistician continuously prove of the automobile industry is a good held of research for anyone who doubts these facts. About your Health Things You Should Know 1/ Corns 9 Ho—not any of the distillates, so plentiful nowadays. I mean the other thing—those pests, often agonizing— that find lodgment on the tops of, and between the toes. In these highly-specialized days, most everybody has a chiropodist. The fellow who don’t know just what a chiropodist is—and hasn’t one—he’s the one I’m talking to; the one who is willing to do most anything for a bit of relief. Of course you know, those corns are all your own fault; they couldn't help appearing; you invited them your self. t Corns never intrude themselves into polite society,—they are always invited guests, that stay longer than they are wanted once their character becomes known. If your feet need soaking, soak them. But it doesn’t help corns— much. As soon as you put that hea then shoe on again, the corns begin to speak up. Pull that shoe off again; if you throw it away, so much the better. Take a small “wisp” of long-fiber ab sorbent cotton and, wrap it snugly aroqud the toe—as you’d spread it aroAd a lead-pencil—snugly—so it will stay, when you draw on your stocking; then, saturate the cotton above the com with any sort of good, refined, lubricating oil. Olive oil 4 excellent; Sperm oil, is very good; if you haven’t either, sieze your wife’s can of sewing-machine oill I’ve u?ed it myself—and cured my corns too. Dress the toe in this manner, morning and night, and wear low heels. Your stockings will get oil on them, of course; but what of it? If you are extra careful, shave the callous thin before applying the dress ing. If you’d rather have corns, keep 00! heels /Or the Otoe the fool and narrow toes.
