Supplyinj a week-to-week inspiration for the heary-burdened who will hnd
every human trial paralleled itrthe experiences of "The Man Nobody Knows.*
A QUESTION WILL DO
On many occasions Jesus won his case with a single
question one of the best weapons in the whole armory of
persuasion and all to infrequently employed. How often
a blundering advocate allows himself to be dragged into fu
tile argument, when by throwing the burden back on to his
opponent’s shoulders he could attain an easy mastery. Jesus
seldom argued. The record of his questions is a fruitful
study for all of us who, in our every-day affairs, must deal
with other minds. Let us recall two of those questions.
The Pharisees set a trap for him. One Sabbath day
they hunted up a man with a withered hand and tleposited
him in the Temple where Jesus would be sure to pass. Then
they waited. If Jesus healed him, it would be a breach
of the Code, which forbade any activity on the Sabbath.
They would have that to recall when the crisis came. Jesus
sensed the test and met it without hesitation.
“Stand forth,’* he said to the poor chap.
The bigoted formalists pushed in close. This was their
moment. They had dug the pit cleverly and now he was
about to fall in. The soft light went out of Jesus eyes, the
muscles of his jaw grew tense, he looked “round on them
with anger,” as he demanded:
“Is it unlawful on the Sabbath day to do good or to do
harm? To save a life or to kill?”
He waited for an answer but none came. \V hat could
they say? If they replied that the law forbade a good deed,
their answer would be repeated all over town. Th? crowd
of common folks who followed him were his friends, not
theirs only too glad to spread a story which would cast dis
credit on the proud defenders of the law. The Pharisees
had sense enough to recognize that fact, at least. They
“held their peace,” and sullenly slipped away.
On another day it was his own disciples who learned
how he could compress a whole philosophy into a well-di
rected interrogation. They were by no means free from
the frailties of ordinary human nature. They fussed about
little things arguing among themselves as to who should
have preeminence; wondering how their bills were to be
met, and just where the whole enterprise was coming out.
He brought them up short with a question.
“Which of you by being anxious can add a single day
to his life?” he demanded. “And if you can't do this
simple thing, why worry about the rest? Consider the rav
ens; they don’t sow or reap; they have no store-houses or
barns, and yet God takes care of them. Don’t you suppose
that you are of more value in his sight than a flock of
birds?”
How trival seemed their concern and controversy after
a question like that.

The final figures of ginning of
the cotton crop of 1932 show that
12,994,430 five hundred pound bales
were ginned, as against 13,931,597
in 1930 and 17,095,594 in 1931. The
cotton crop of last year was sev
eral million bales too large for
a good price, in view of the large
carry-over and the working of the
law of supply and demand. How
ever, there is another feature in
the cotton ginning report that is
worthy of interest. The number of
round bales last year was 722,152
compared with 621,370 the year be
fore.
It will be seen that, while the
whole crop last year was 4,101,164
bales less than the year before, the
number of round bales was 100,-
782 greater. Will that per centage
of gain be kept up?
j will recall that when the macnin-
j ery for turning out round bales
j was first put on the market, it
was leased. Its owners felt sure it
would displace promptly the ma
chinery turning out the square-
edged bales and that there would
be an enormous profit in its op
eration. Those hopes were not
realized, but there has been a slow
and steady gain in use of ma
chinery turning out round bales.
There are some advantages in the
round bale process, but the round
bales take up more room in ware
houses and freight cars and this
offsets to some extent the advan
tages.
