P t A 3 God. If we live as we ought and maniféest the life of our God, we will ‘d@raw men to the love of Him. The proverbial relation between motherâ€" inâ€"law and daughterâ€"inâ€"law is *anyâ€" thing but that pictured here, but it ‘wa,s loyalty to Jehovah that made the relation so tender and beautiful in this case. In many a case toâ€"day the professed Christlanity of motherâ€" inâ€"law and daughterâ€"inâ€"law â€" doesn‘t ma.keY the relation any happier beâ€" ‘eause the professed Christianity is not real. Ruth was really making a choice 8f Jehovah (ch. 2:~12). â€" Quite likely the life of Mahlon her hushand had had much to do with it. More real heroism of faith was shown in the action of Ruth than in the darâ€" ing exploits recorded in Judges, The truest heroism toâ€"day is displayed by the | selfâ€"sacrificing acts of tender women in home life, and not by the warriors. Ruth did not stop .to ask ‘where Naomi was going, whithersoâ€" ever it might be, she would go also. so we should go with Jesus (Jno. 12: 2§)) It paid Ruth and it will pay us. The humblest hut in Bethlehem would be sweeter to Ruth than the finest palace in Moahb because Naomi was there (cf. Phil. 1: 23). Christ‘s people should be our people, Christ‘s God our God. Where Christ dies we should die (Gal. 2; 20). We should be buried too with Him we love (v.‘17; ef. Rom. 6: 4). But. we can go beâ€" yond Ruth in her words to Naomi; for we not only die and are buried with Him, but also rise with Him @Eph. 2: 6: Col. 3: L). Ruth would think of nothing as separating them but death; even death will not separâ€" ate us from Christ (Rom. 8:38; 39; 2 Cor 5:§; R.V.; Phill 1: 28).: Naâ€" omi saw the wholeâ€"heartedness of Ruth‘s love and accepted it and said no more about her going back. Christ will accept that kind of love from us and no other. : II. Not Naomi, but Mara, 19â€"22. They came to Bethlehem, the house of bread, a good place for hungry wanderers to come. We will find our Father‘s house a house of bread when we come out of Moab, the far counâ€" try (Lu, 1‘5: 17â€"24). Naomi was welâ€" come home, the one who has been in Moab always is, and there will be a great stir when she comes back. Naâ€" omi had gone out full and came back empty. The one who goes into Moab is quite likely to come back empty. The people could hardly believe it was Naomi, and it is hard to recogâ€" nize in the spiritually empty and starving backslider the Naomi we once knew, Naomi was quite right in attributing. her present emptiness to Jehoyah (yvs. 20, 21; cf. 1 Sam.!2: 7, 88). Yet Naomi was to blame, for she never should have gone into Moâ€" ab. Blessed was that misfortune, bitâ€" ter though it was, that brought her back out of Moab into Canaan (cf. Heb. 12: 11). But Naomi was not as empty as might be, for she had Ruth t Lesson IV. / @Golden Text: ‘"Thy people sha‘ my people, and thy God. my God Ruth 1: 16. | Lesson Textâ€"Ruth 1: 14â€"2 Ruth. 1: Ps. 91.) I _ Timeâ€"Uncertain. Placer~ hem. PAGE SIX S. S. LESSON April 25, 1920. Thy people shall be â€"~22, (Read Bethle 1920 for Moâ€" bitâ€" her This brings us to the question. What is good music? â€" By the best music I mean exactly what I should mean if I were to substitute the word literaâ€" ture for music. I mean the composiâ€" tions of the great masters. And if you say the great masters do not write music suitable for little children, I reâ€" ply such music has nevertheless been produced by all races in their childâ€" hood; that it exists in profusion that is commonly known as folk song; that it is the basis upon which much of the greatest music in the world rests and the best specimens of folk songs are quite as perfect within their small range as the greatest work of the great masters. It is a great mistake to think any tune good enough which is attractive at first hearing. This is why many songs taught have short life while songs like ‘Annie Laurie live on forâ€" ever. Children love good songs. It is their natural inheritance. Suppose we take fifteen minutes each week for a month and give a Victor programmeée playing three reâ€" cords within the child‘s capacity of appreciation. Let us write the proâ€" gram‘me on the board, briefly explainâ€" ing the records and direct the children to listen to cértain features. If a list of ten records to illustrate definite points could be studied in every grade each year the result would more than compensate for the time and money spent,. A Victor would also be a great assistance to the children in marchâ€" ing.. This training in listening to muâ€" sic is being carried on in many Ameriâ€" can schools under the name of "music (ch. 4: 15). We are quite likely to overâ€"estimate our sorrows and underâ€" estimate our â€" possessions. Naomi rightly considered her misfortunes as Jehovah‘s testimony against her sin (cef. v. 2). We may â€"seem to escape famine by going into Moab (v. 1), but we will lose more than we gain in the long run. It was providential that they got back just in the time of barâ€" ley harvest (chs. 2 and 3). Every litâ€" tle detail of our life is arranged by God. Considering our handicaps and crowded curiculums I believe the greatest thing we can do for our chilâ€" dren is to cultivate a love for music. How are we going to do this? It is obvious that a long experience of muâ€" sic through â€" singing shoul% precede any instruction as to the time ‘value of notes, intervals, etc. Having learnâ€" ed to enjoy music through singing children are interested to learn more about reading it and cheerfully accept the drudging part of learning music. It is perhaps not possible to take our whole school to hear a great orâ€" chestra as the Philadelphia or New York symphony or to hear a great choir like the Mendelssohn sing:. This has been done by some American city schools. But through the best records of a Victor or Edison could we not bring some of the best music to our schools. MUSIC IN SCHOOL AND HOME AND ITS EFFECT a oN NATIONAL LIFE (Continued from issue of April 7) the child. There is no possible realiâ€" zation of the little personality comâ€" parable to this. The joy which a child gets "in reproducing beautiful melodies is like no other experience in life, The prime object then of muâ€" sical education for children is so to develop their musical_sensibilities; to make them love and understand the best music and so train their taste for it as to make them capable of discrimâ€" inating between good and bad. Our public schoois‘ music labours under great difficulties. The classes are too large, often forty and fifty pupils. The music period is too short. The music teacher in most. schools visits the room at too great intervals. And perhaps the greatest difficulty is that the regular teacher is not capable of teaching music. This is no fault of the teacher as I believe the majority of teachers can be trained to teach music well but our High Schools and Normals are not at present giving the necessary training. Yet we are trying to produce expert results. United States boasts of the many thousands even to millions they are spending on music annuvally. But reâ€" sults are not satisfactory, â€" Two cauâ€" ses are pointed out, namely: Spending too much time preparing music for concerts and a belief that reading muâ€" sic "at sight" is an. end in itself. Sermon by Rev. A Dennis, 1 Cor. 15â€"42 But again we remember ,that this bulb, with all its unattractiveness, has within it the germ of life and growth. But we remember also that this germ can. only develop through â€" contact with suitable soil. "go also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption." My message this morning will not be a long one because on such times as Easter I would sooner let the beautiful communion â€" service . itself speak to your hearts in all its fullâ€" ness. However, there are a few thoughts that I would like to place briefly before you. When our Lord wished to teach a special lesson He would often . take some object or person close at hand and use that as an illustration. On one occasion to teach conversion, "He called a little child unto Him ‘and set hini in the midst of them." I follow that divine example in my sermon this morning, only I consider the lilies of the field. Here beside me on the ‘pulpit I see an Easter lily in full bloom. A short time ago it was a bulb.> Let us imagine that bulb beâ€" fore us. It is not very handsome. It hais a cramped appearance. Some earth is clinging to: it. After all, when you come to think, isn‘t that just a picturg of our souls. They are cramped by the filesh of our mortal bodies, and even the best of humanity has a little of the sort of sim~clinging fovit. So with the soul, with all its weak ness, it has within it the germ of life WEEKLY SERMON A. J. Arthur, Mount MUSIC So with us, the spark . ofâ€" Divine possibility may linger undeveloped for a long time, ten, twenty, fifty or even seventy years, but it gradually gets wéaker and one day disappears altogether. That is the sin against the Holy Ghost to neglect the soul so long that it dies. but that germ can be developed only through union with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. If you put the bulb away on a If you put the bulb away .0 shelf, the life remains in it for while, but eventually dies out. Notice again that there must be decay in the bulb before the new life springs forth. So our mortal bodies must decay in death before our souls come into the more(abundant life. But when the bulb does decay, then comes forth the beautiful plant and flower. And as the fullâ€"blown lily surpasses the bulb, so will we at the Resurrection surpass our present state, only of course infinitely more. We see the green leaves of this plant. That represents to us the abundant life that will be ours on the last and brightest Easter. We see the beautiful flowers of this plant. â€" That represents the puriâ€" ty and beauty of the redeemed soul in heaven. "That which thou . sowest, thou sowest not. That body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat or of some other grain: but God giveth it a body as it hath pleasâ€" ed Him." Just as the beauty of the flower is latent in the humble bulb, so is the beauty of immortality latent in our souls. It only needs the lifeâ€"giving touch of Jesus Christ to bring it out. Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, in a powerful address at Guelph last week, madeâ€"a strong plea against any form of Bolshevism which she says deâ€" stroys the brain power of a nation. Another interesting (movement in Public Schools in United States is the teaching of piano lessons free and givâ€" ing instruction on any instrument used in the orchestra and allowing credit for work in piano done under outside teachers. This gives a child who intends to be a muysician the same chance to preâ€" pare for his or her vocation during public school days as a student who expects to become a doctor, lawyer, chemist or clerk. appreciation." The art of listening may be cultivated as truly as the art of performing music. We understand that only a limited number of people can ever expect to be real artists in performance and that by far the largâ€" er number of people must be listeners. Having thus learned to love music girls and boys on leaving school will naturally find his and her way into choir and â€"choral. A better manhood and womanhood will result and thus a stronger nation. Such is:the power of music. To this power open the doors of your soul and there will enter into your life a greater fullness of all that makes for progress and joy.
