Printed Text â€" Joih. 1: 2-6; 14-21 GOLDEN TEXT Ai for me and my house, we wilt irr'. e Jehovah. Joth. 24: 15. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Timt • â€" Joshua lived from 1537 E.'.â€" :427 B.C. Mace: â€" The Jordan River is that twistinfi, rapid body of water dividir.t; eastern and western Pal- estine, flowing from the Sea of Galilee to the Dead Sea in the south; Shecheni v.-as located in Ephraim between mounts Ebal and Gerizim on the highway between Judaea and Galilee; Timnath-.oer- ah V.1S five miles southwest of Shcrhc:n, and seven miles north of Sliiloh. .loshua appears in the Old Tes- tament narrative considerably be- fore the events recorded in the first passage assigned in our les- son. Thus in Exod. 17: 9-14, we find hini assigned by Moses the task of choosing men to go out and fiKht with .4malelc, a conflict in wliifh Joshua was victor'ous; in'E.xod. 24: 13, Joshua is railed the "minister" of Moses, nie.aning "his helper". The New Leader At the command of the Lord Moses took Joshua, the son of Kun, in whom dwelt the Holy Spirit, and, setting him before Eleazar, the priest, and before all the eonjrregation he laid his hands upon him and gave him a charge, the words of which arc recorded in'Dcut. 31: 7,8. Immediately upon the death of Moses, God finally confiiTns previ- ous promises to Joshua, «nd leads him into the great task immed- iately before him with a gloriously encouraging and strengthening message. 2. Moses my servant is dead ; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan. The major part of Pales- tine and the great proportion of events in sacred history are lo- cated on the western side of the Jordan River; the territory on the eastern side is, for the most part, quite barren, and today very sparsely populated. Thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel. Palestine 's re- ferred to as a gift of God nearly two hundred times in the Old Tes- tament, beginning as far back as the twelfth chapter of the book of Genesis. Five hundred years have now passed since that early prom- ise, and God is now about to bring to fulfillment the hopes of the children of I. '.'ael for a permanent home. 3. Every place that the sole of your foot .shall tread upon, to you have I given it, as I spake unlo Moses. Cf. Dcut. 11: 24; Jo.«h. 14: 9. Land of Promite 4. From the wilderness. Thij wilderness is what is known as the wilderness of Arabia or the desert of Arabia, located to the south. .â- \nd this Lebanon. This refer? to the great mountain range known as the Lebanon Mountains far north in Syria. Even unto the great river, the river Euphrates. The nearer of the two great rivers of Mesopotamia, about 1,780 miles long, mentioned as one of the rivers of the Garden of FIden (Gen. 2: 14). All the land of the Hittites. And unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun. This, of course, refers to the Med- iterranean Sea. Shall be your bor- der. This huge territory was nev- er fully occupied by the Israelit- ish people in all the hundreds of years that intervened between the conquest under Joshua and the Captivity under Nebuchadnezzar, eight hundred years later. 5. There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee; I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. 6. Be strong and of good cour- age; for thou shalt cause this peo- ple to inherit the land which I sware unto their fathers to give them. One might say that Joshua was to be strong both negatively and positively â€" he was to be strong in resisting temptation, and he was to be strong in carrying out the task which God gave him. Appro.ximately twenty-five years have passed since the death of Moses, and the entrance of the children of Israel into Palestine. Joshua is now an old man (110 years of age). 14. Now therefore fear Jeho- vah, and serve him in sincerity and in truth; and put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River, and in Egypt; and serve ye Jehovah. Put away all the images of the dead deities of the ancient world, who could never give to them one tiny par- ticle of all the grace and wealth that God had conferred upon them. Are You Listening?

Hill will go William Tell one better by lining up fifteen Every Man's Choice 15. And if it seem evil unto you to serve Jehovah, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fath- ers served that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amor- ites, in whose land ye dwell. A choice not only must be made by men, but a choice is made by ev- ery man. i^ll human life de- mands a God. The m.en most loud in their declaration today that there is no God and will not have God are worshipping a God all the time. Human life is so constructed that it cannot live without an object of devotion, something that appeals to desire and to which all life is responsive. But as for me and my house, we will serve Jehovah. .\ man of Joshua's achievements, a man of his unquestioned character, a man to whom millions of Israelites had looked for guidance and leader- ship, that man has an enormous influence over others, and now he is going to throw that influence, with all the power he possesses, into his pleading with the people of Israel to follow the only true and living God. 16. .\nd the people answered and said. Far be it from us that we should forsake Jehovah, to serve other gods; 17. For Jeho- vah our God, he it is that brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and that did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way wherein we went, and among all the peoples through the midst of whom we passed; 18. and Jehovah drove out from before us all the peo- ples, even the .A.morites that dwelt in the land; therefore we also will serve Jehovah ; for he is our God. 19. .'\nd Joshua said unto the people. Ye cannot serve Jehovah; for he is a holy God ; he is a jeal- ous God; he will not forgive your transgression nor your sins. 20. If ye forsake Jehovah, and serve foreign gods, then he will turn and do you evil, and consume you, after that he hath done you good. Joshua, realizes that these peo- ple do not fully apprehend the profound significances and consequences of what they are saying. Jo.shua does not say that God will not forgive sin when sin is confessed and put away, but he does declaie that he will not continue to bless his peo- ple and blot out their iniquities, or bear them away, if they con- tinue in their sin and forsake the Lord their God. 21. .\nd the people said unto Jo.thua, Nay; but we will serve Jehovah. They repeated previous- ly expre.<«!ed confidence in their own ability to serve the Lord and obey his Haw, and by their public protestation bare witne.ss against them.selves if they ever broke their engagement. Following this. Joshua set up a stone on this very spot, which for a<l the generations to follow would he a reminder to Israel of what had tai-en place that day. Record pretty girls with apples on their heads and shooting th« apples off. Remember the days when no .studio would ever admit that any I actor had a double for any stunt? They used to make Douglas Fairbanks have one some- times, when the stunt was too dan- 1 ;ierous â€" and he'd manage to do it himself when the cameras weren't grinding, just to show ttiat he Fairbanl<8 wasn't afraid. Speaking of Flynn â€" recently he worried Warner Brothers no lit- tle. He bought a new yacht, and denoed to go on a six ironths' trip in search of adventure. The executives objected. They finally gave him three weeks off. He had to go to Miami to get the yacht; he was to sail it through the canal, and fly to Hollywood to work in "Sister .\ct". Off he went, and off he stayed. He spent four weeks in Miami. A studio repre- sentative went after him, and went back without him. So Jef- frey Lynn, whose face isn't ex- actly familiar on the screen as yet, was given the lead in "Sister Act," with everybody cheering for him, and now the studio's de- lighted with his work. It may be another of those cases where a star walks out and a now star walks right in. If Jeffrey Lynn does climb to stardom he can thank Bette Davis for giving him a start. Whih ap- pearing in a road company of a New York stage success he was given a screen test by Meiro. Nothing came of it so far as Met- ro was concei'ned, but Miss Davis saw the test and wanted Lynn for a role in "Jezebel." He didn't get it, hut Warner Brothers liked the test and gave the young man a contract. They're admitting now that the clever Miss Davis was right when she refused to play in "Comet Over Broadway," saying tha: tha v..^^^ BETIE DAVIS story and dialogue weren't up to scratch. One newspaper man call- ed it "a very badly written story full of inane dialogue."

The novel, "Sixteen Hands," has been bought for tha screen for Bob Burns; it's a story about a mula . . . He'll do ".Arkansas Traveler" too . . . -â- Vnd he went to court the other day to ask that the records he made in 1933 and 1934 be kept out of circulation, on the ground that they injure his reputation as a creative artist ... In 1934 he made 11500; in 1937, |400,800 . . . Nothing like getting a good break, and deserving it!

Rode 578 Miles On Toy Tricycle A 44 -year -old Melbourne ex- Serviceman, .\lfred Wilkinson, has just ridden 578 miles from Mel- bourne to Sydney on a child's tri- cycle. Pointless sort of thing to do, you think'.' Not at all. H« did it in 9 days, 23 hours, 25 minutes â€" call it 10 days for the sake of working out the fact that he earn- ed $62.50 a day by his feat. The tricycle was an ordinary stock model, 2 ft. 6 ins. high, the only alteration being the fitting of a special saddle and a longer saddle pin. One of the conditions was that while he was riding his feet should never touch the ground. Germany is e.xpected to spend $4,500,000,000 on rearmament this year. Crumbling in places. Fort Etb- ier blockhouse stands today as one of -Alberta's few mementos of the Riel Rebellion of 1885. Efforts to have the structure preserved by the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada have been made to Judge F. W. Howay of New Westminster, the board's western member, by ser- vice clubs of Edmonton and Wetaskiwin, Alta. Five miles north of Wetaski- win and about 35 miles south of Edmonton, the old blockhouse stands only a few yards from the main highway linking Calgary and Edmonton and less than 100 yds. from the Calgary-Edmonton line of the Canadian Pacific railway. The fort's foundation is slip- ping now, with a possibility the whole structure may tumble into a ravine running alongside it. Some of the hewn logs in its walla are rotting and the near-cyclone which swept through -Alberta May 12 ripped some planks off the roof. But most of the logs in It are still sound. Especially well pre- served is the floor between the first and second storeys. Initials in the logs and trench- es, some of them still marked ill the surrounding ground, show a large force was -stationed there back in 1885.
