Purposciully he walked toward the table where, in a drawer, he had put the six-gun he had wrench- ed out of Clark Weber's hand. Bartle flung open the door as a horse flashed by.

The shots kicked white puffs from the plaster wall over the landownet's shoulder. Campletely panicked, Bartle dash- ed for the barn. No amount of real estate nor millions in a bank could have held him in that house another minute. All he asked of life now was a swift horse! A great shadow fell on the barn door as he tugged at it.

Barclay Warren Naomi, Woman Of Faith Ruth 1:18-18; 2:20; 4:14-171 Golden Text:--Thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God.-- Ruth 1:16. : The history of the period of the Judges in Isracl is one of repeated backsliding followed by oppression from neighbouring peoples, Then the people 'in their" sorry plight would call on God and He would raise up a deliverer who would lead Israel to v'ctory and become their judge. After a time they would forget God's goodness and again revert to the sins of their neigh- bours. The story of Ruth is a most de- lightful episode. But in to-day's lesson our attention is focussed on Ruth's mother-in-law, Naomi. She with her two sons had left Bethle- hem-Judah in a time of famine and gone to the land of Moab. The sons married two young woman of Moab, Orpah and Ruth. "After ten years the men died and Naomi de- cided to return to herjhome country, Ruth insisted on accompanying her, saying: "Intreat me not to "leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest. 1 will go: and where thou rodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God." Naomi arrived-home disappointed. To her friends she said, "Call me not Naomi (pleasant), call me Mara (bitter): for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with.me"", But the, goodness of God soon became manifest. Ruth, gleaning in the fields of Boaz, a kinsman of Naomi, bcame his wife. A child was born whose grandson was the illustrious King David.. Jesus, too was a des- cendant of this young woman rom Moab. Naomi's complaint was gone and as grandmother she became nurse . . to the child. The love which Ruth bore her mother-in-law was appar- ent to the neighbours and is an ex- . ample for us to-day.
