HARPER Paul Trains tor His Lifework. Lesson for October 20: Acts 7: T9h-2t; 11:25, 1$: Galatians is 17-24. Memory Selection: Acts 9:20. * .. Several yean passed after Paul's conversion before he began his out* . standing work. Beginning to preach la Antioch, thinking the thing through In Arabia, and returning to Tarsus, he was found there by Barnabas, who accompanied him to Antioch.\ whence the two soon set out on the first fiiisSldnary Journey. Prom the lesson, text and else where we learn ghgt the humble Ananias led PattiJjp! confession and baptism. In the hdmd.bf one Judas. Following this he began to preach in the synagogues with such results that certain Jews sought his life. His friends let him dfwn/the city wall in a basket and he escaped. Boon afterward m went to Arabia, evidently to think things through. Just where in that country he abode and how lent he remained cannot be known. Many think he was in Arabia three years, evidently more than that time had passed when Barnabas found Paul In his native Tarsus and took him to Antioch. Thus by prayer, meditation, and serving as opportunity came, Paul trained himself for his great work as the Apostle to the Gentiles. And we may learn from him that earn est preparation Is required to render a fine sendee in Christ'# name The Sabbath, rightly observed, with Bible reading, meditation, and prayer, and all fbrms of ChrlsMia service should lead us into greater service.

Bob Hill could have tried his luck as a heavyweight fighter, but he choose the safer and probably surer road to athletic fame in big league baseball.

He war- heavy weight champion of the academy, and first baseman on the school’s ball team, , where he batted .360. He is a six foot, 200-pounder. They're saying that Johnny Lujact is the greatest quarterback Notre Dame has had since Frank Carideo, back in 1929 and '30. He has plenty of skill, speed and strength, but most important, he has strategy. Mike Jacobs is planning a rematch for Tony Zale and Rocky Graziano for the middleweight crown. He will stage it outdoors to accommodate a really big crowd—he hopes around 60,000, with gate receipts touching the half million dollar mark.
