BURGESS LIGHTFOOT BECOMES UNCERTAIN [ lOHTFOOT the Deer through the Green Forest straight ahead in the direction from which the Merry Little Breezes were ijiowlng. Every few steps he would raise his Jelicate nose and test all the scents that the Merry Little Breezes were bringing. As long as lie kept the Merry Little Breezes blowing in his face he could be sure whether or not there was danger ahead of him. You see. the Merry Little Breezes delight in carry ing all sorta of scents, and Llghtfoot’s Every Once in a While He Would Step in a Thicket of Young Trees. nose If so wonderful lhal even though those scents be very, very faint he can catch them and tell Just what they are. Lightfoot uses his m'se very much as you and I use our eyes. It tells hin'i the things he wants to know. He knew that Kedily Fox had been along alidad of him although he didn't get so much as a glimpse of Reudy’s red coat. Once he caught Just the faintest of scents which caused him to stop abruptly and test the air more carefully than ever. It was the scent of Buster Bear. It was so very faint that Lightfoot knew Buster was not near, so he went ahead again, but even more carefully than liefore. After a little he couldn't smell Buster at all so he know then that BURNING LEAVES By ANNE CAMPBELL I T SEEMS as if the whole lost sum mer grieves When we are burning leaves.

Buster had simply passed that way go ing to some other part of the Green Forest ^ So Lightfoot knew that he had noth- ng to fear In that direction so long as the Merry Little Breezes brought him none of the dreaded man-scent, and he knew that he could trust the Merry Little Breezes to bring him that scent If there should be a man any where in that direction. The Merry Little Breezes are Llghtfoot’s best friends. But Lightfoot didn’t want to keep going in that direction all day. It would take him far away from that part of the Green Forest with which he was familiar and which he called home. It might In time take him ont of the Green' Forest, and that wouldn’t do at all. So after a while Lightfoot became uncertain. He didn’t know Just what to do. You see, he couldn’t tell wheth er or not tnat hnntpr with the terrible gun was’still following him. Every once In a while he would stop in a thicket of young trees or behind a tangle of fallen trees uprooted by the wind. There he would stand facing the direction from which he had come Hat and H&lter and watch and listen for some sign that the hunter was still following. But after a few minutes Of this he would grow uneasy and then bound away in the direction from which the Merry Lit tle Breezes were blowing so ns to be sure of not running into danger. _ “If only I could know if that hunter is still following I would know better what to do,” thought Lightfoot. “I’ve got to find out.” © T.

First Copper House Is Completed , I. Jeremiah’s Call (1:1-1P). ’ t. it was pr*natal (vj. 4, 51. fore Jeremiah was born God ordainij him a prophet to the nations. 2. His diffidence (v. fl).' This, seems to have grown out of his youtji and Inexperience. 3. His hesitancy overcome (vv. 7, 8). • God graciously appeared to him and made clear that he should go where sent, speak as commanded, and to he not afraid of the faces of his enemies. This was accompanied by Hhe assurance of the divine pres ence. It matters little as - to the strength of the foe If Cite presence of God is with the messenger. 4. The divine message given (v 9) Ttre—very—words—were put—into the 'prophet’s mouth, not merely the ^thoughts but the proper words to ex press the thoughts. 5. The nature of his ministry (v. 10). It was fo he wider than that of prophesying. Six words were given as descriptive thereof. The first four are destructive In their Implication; ’root out," “pull down,’’ "destroy,” and ‘throw down." The last two are con structive; “build” and “plant." The destructive precedes the constructive. II. Jeremiah’s Grief (9:1). ' The unlMdief of th*^people made him feel that his efforts were fruitless. Seeing so clearly the awful doom which awaited this people, be wept sorely. The true prophet of God takes to heart the seriousness of his niinisiry and sorely grieves over the wicked unbelief rf M>e peopla. III. Jsrcmian's Prophecy In the Temple Court (26:1-24). 1. Jeremiah’s solemn warning to I luduh (vv. 1-7). The Ixtrd commanded ^iflm to stand In a conspicuous place In | ihe Temple and proclaim the Judgment 1 which was about to fall upou them The object was to provoke them to re- pentarue. If they did not re|»ent. God would make the Temple as Shiloh. Shiloh was once the dwelling place of God; now It had fallen into decay. So will it lie with the Temple! Jere- mlah was sent to speak the won which Ids Lord had told him and not ’ to diminish a word. 2. Jeremiah on trial (vv. 9-11). a. Cause of arrest. He was sr- j rested for 8|>eoking all that the Lord I had commanded. * b. The charge (vv. 8. 9). They charged him with a capital crime which Involved pretending to speak for God and speaking against the Temple and the city. This would make him to he guilty of blasphemy and sacrl lege, Imtb of which were to be pun ished hy death (DeuL ]8:20; l^ev. 24:10. c. The princes sit In Judgment (vv. IU. 11). We thus see that matters of state were not entirely In the hands of priests, but In part were controlled hy members of the royal family. 3. Jeremiah’s defense (vv. 12-15) Threats of death did not deter him from preaching, but only inspired him to re|>eat his message with clearness and tenderness. a. Reiterated the divine commis sion. b. He urged them to amend their ways and to obey God and thus avert the divine Judgment (v. 13). c. He gave himself np (v.,14). He did not resist the powers of govern raent. Knowing stint God had sent him, he was content fo trust God for deliverance. d. Warns of fatal consequences. He frankly told them that God had sent him and If they killed him they would be guilty of defying God. 4. Jeremiah’ saved (vv. 16-24). ~ a. The princes pronounce him not •guilty (v. 16). They were convinced that J|eremiah was speaking the truth. b. The elders plead for Jeremiah (vv. 17-23). They cited Two cases; Mlrah (vv 18, 19) and Urijnh (vv. 20-23). They argued that killing God’s prophets did not turn aside his Judg ment hut Intensifled It. The only way to avert the judgment is to turn from their sins. c. Jeremiah rescued by Ahlkam (v. 24).
