ROBERT H HARPER t Yhe Hemmed Exiles and Their Work. Lesson for May 27: Nehemiah 8:1- 4a, 5-6, 8, 12; 9:1-3. Golden Text: Jeremiah 29:13. The Persians having overthrown the Babylonians, Cyrus encouraged the Jews, about 60 years after the exile began, to return to Judah and rebuild Jerusalem and the tCSnple. Led by Zerubbabel and 'Joshua, descendants, respectively, of the last Jewish king and the high priest, 43,000 Jews returned and • within 20 years rebuilt the temple and partially restored Jerusalem. Eight years after their return, Ezra the scribe came from Baby lon as a religious leader, and he was followed 13 years later by Ne hemiah, whom Artaxerxes had ap pointed governor of the Jewish community. Under Nehemiah’s en couragement and able direction, the wall of the city was completed. Ezra and Nehemiah together brought the people to a great re ligious awakening. After the pass ing of nearly a century, the people bad fallen into many evil things— marrying foreign women, desecrat ing the Sabbath, neglecting their religious duties. To the assembled people Ezra read the law of Moses, while the people stood in the open tor a half-day attentively listening. Assisting priests and Levites “gave <he sense” and led the people to Understand what was read. Here is a good pattern for all who now rieclare the word of God. A great revival followed—some of the people wept, all were bidden to rejoice and a season of joy and thanksgiving followed. And soon came another great day in which the people in sackcloth and ashes separated themselves from foreign ers, confessed their sins, and gave themselves to a study of the divine law. In the study of this period we may find helpful lessons toward a religious revival. It is urgently needed in our country. Let it first begin in each of us.

They could show you why it is cheaper and quicker to give our Pacific Forces en tirely new equipment sometimes—instead of shipping tanks and guns from Europe. They can, in short, show you 101 ways in which your dollars are needed more than ever to bring America’s might to its full strength—so that we may crush our foe the faster, make an end of killing, and bring our men hack home. •'TV I o I trnmm , a " ’ - mg»Mg *,c*4*i* a •: >" ''■■■■ i ■ > ■/■Xsl-v.-.'-* • •GmWSsfr' (iff A i** m m • * Will you tef! these men "I can’t afford to buy my share”? j T HE GENERALS and admirals can show us why our money is needed — more money than before.
