INTERNATIONAL NEWSPAPER BIBLE STUDY CLUB THE GAZETTE'S BRANCH. Prizes for Answers. The Gazette has secured the right to i publish the International Sunday School Lesson questions by the Rev. Dr. Lin- scott, which have aroused so much in- terest elsewhere, and they will appear weekly. One of these questions each .. week is to be answered in writing, and upon these answers prizes will be award- ed. This paper IS also authorized to form a Local Newspaper Bible Study ~ Club for its readers, and guarantees to all who join and fulfil the conditions, that everything herein promised shall be faithfully carried out. Persons may join the club at any time during the year, but must, of course, answer the 52 questions hereinafter ex- plained, to qualify for the prizes. It is, however, desirable that the questions be answered as the lessons are studied. The International Newspaper Bible Study Club, which had its origin last year at Brantford, Ont., is for the pur- pose of promoting, in an unfettered way 'among the masses, a wider study of the Bible, the baser truths of Christianity, and the problems which enter into every man's life. It is composed of all those who join a local club and take up the simple course outlined herein, barring only ordained clergymen. We have the sympathetic coâ€"operation of the latter, but it is not considered fair to have them compete for the prizes. Sunday School teachers, Bible class scholars, and church goers generally may belong to this news- paper club, also non-churchgoers of all shades of opinion. All such are warmly invited to join and compete for the prizes. CONDITIONS OF THE CONTEST. 1. Each contestant, or his or her fam- ily, must be a paid-up subscriber to this paper during the continuance of the con- test in order to qualify for membership in the International Newspaper Bible Study Club and this Local Club. 9.. Each contestant in this Local Club must answer each of the written ques- tions for 5‘). consecutive weeks, com- mencing for Sunday, July 26th, and the answers must all be in the possession of this paper within two weeks after the close of the contest. 3. Each question must be answered separately, and the paper written on one side only. No answer must exceed 200 words, and may be less. If possible, write on letter paper, size about 8.} by 11 inches. 4. Each answer must have the name and address of the writer at the bottom of the answer, so it can be identified, given a number, registered, and then the name cut off so the examiner may know it by number only. 5. Students should be careful to under- stand the question before answering. To do this the lesson text must be read, and especially the verse or verses upon which the question is based. 6. The answers for this local club must be delivered at this office, and they ,will be collated at the close of the con- test and forwarded to headquarters for independent examination by competent examiners. The prizes will then be awarded according to the highest num- ber of marks won by members of the International Newspaper Bible Study Club, and prizes which may be awarded to members of this Local Club will be $13 ven out from this olIice.

All who can write, and have ideas, are urged to take up these studies regard- less of the degree of their education, as the papers are not valued from an edu- cational or literary standpoint, but from the point of view of the cogency of their reasoned ideas.

Verses 7-8 ~Is a babe born in a humble cottage just as dear to God as one born to a Queen in a palace? Is a young man, blacksmith, or machin- ist. or farmer, or daily laborer, person- ally just as dear to the heart of God as one who is rich and in an exalted position?

Where are our fathers who have pass- ed away ? Does the future of our sons depend most upon us, upon them, or upon the appointment of God? Were these promises of God to David, concerning his son Solomon, absolute and unconditional, or were they Continâ€" gent upon the actions of Solomon ? What is a vision, and to what extent are visions possible to a true Christian toâ€"day ? Verse 16â€"Where is God, and how may we “sit before him ?
