Mr. Morley's message, " "Ben Hur" is not a story of chariot race," the speaker be- n, "jit is a tale of the Christ." Its arpose is to show that the king- Sms of time, whether national, [asiness, or personal, will always superseded by the kingdom of [le spirit--the Kingdom of God. "At the time of the story, 21 ars after the Wise Men had wen- 8d their way to Bethlehem. Rome b§1l held its arrogant, haughty ay over the Jewish people. Ju- , son of the Jewish Prince, Hur named in Hebrew Ben Hur--had Bd as a playmate gn childhood Bessala, son of the chief Roman xgatherer. But Messala had ne to Rome to finish his edueca- bn, and returned arrogant, proud unserupulous--a Roman, with the native Romish contempt for Jews and their customs and ligion. By accident a tile from roof of Bem Hur's princely use struck the Roman governor he was passing by, Massala ints the young prince out as an assin. and he is taken captive. In spite of all he can do, Ben nr"s mother and sister are en- ~bed in a dungeon and he him- * condemned to a sentence worse 2m death--+to spend his whole life a zal'ey slave. } But this life. it cruel though was, could not break the princely spirit of the young captive, and when, three years later, he saved the life of Quintus Arius, tribune, commander of the Roman fleet, he emerged from the galleys with a + wonderful physique, hut more, as the adopted son of the tribune. Now, with position in Rome, he is in a place to revenge himself on Messala, traitor of friendship--he would use Rome to fight Rome! After five years, his chance jcame. At Antioch one day, he | heard that an Arab wanted a driv- er for his four desert steeds, in the world championship chariot race, and the representative of Rome was Messala, With every- thing he had at stake at 6 to 1, Messala tries every artifice to win, takes every advantage, but, near the end of the last round, is spill- ed by Ben Hur, who wins wealth, honor and position while Messala is pennyless and, worse still, crip- pled for life. Surely revenge is sweet, but even yet Ben Hur's soul is strangely un- satisfied, and he goes to seek the Messiah, who, he hears, is doing wondrous miracles in Galilee. On the way he gathers three legions to fight if necessary for his king who, be hopes, will establish a temporal power and banish forever the yoke of Rome. On the brink of Jordan he sees John Baptist, pointing out one "the Light of the World." Surely this cannot be he. One sc peaceful looking as this, and yet --.80 Ben Hur follows Christ through the three years of his min- istry, watching to settle in his own mind the purpose of his ministry. Finally he sees him heal his own mother and sister, who had been stricken with leprosy in their eight years of confinement in the dung- eon, then turned loose in the leper colony outside the eity walls. The three together watch with horror the scenes of the betrayal and, eru- cifixion, when all but two meu of his three legions desert to join the mob shouting "Crucify Him". But all this time Ben Hur still could not quite understand Christ's mission--he was still measuring Christ by himself instead of him- self by Christ. But, at the cross, he caught the grea. vision--Ilove is mightier than the sword--and peace settled over his soul. | tor 20TH ANNIERSARY VICTORIA LODGE RED LETTER EVENT Featured By = Elaborate Program The 26th Anniversary of Vie- toria L.T.B.

THE STAGE AS A CAREER Those who hope to succeed in any carcer which really depends on mak- ing the most of a possibly gifted per- sonality line up for a hard race; and those who have gone some way to- wards success, and who therefore know the difficultics of the track, are often tempted to advise the hopeful to seek some other sphere of adven- ture. But the truer advice is to warn the intending competitors that they must have the root of the mat- ter in them from the start--though as a matter of fact that only means that you must have the courage and ability to start before the test can he- gin. It is impossible to tell whether there "something peculiarly de- veloped inside you" until you have submitted the evidence of that some- thing to the outer world. That is the drawback to all professions which depend on personality; it is only by not failing that you can finally prove that you were qualified for success. And the stage can be one of the hardest settings for that ancient cnough test, is Auckland, N. Z., plans to hold its "Auckland Winter Show" in July or August this year, those being the cold months of that country.
