Advice coming trom most people is en unwanted commodity. but the author ot "Thrurns" can make his readers cry tor it. "The Ladies and Literature" was the sub- Jeet of an address which he recent- ly delivered at the Authors' Club in London. In his opening sentences he de. clared that he was not going to talk about ladies or literature, or love, as his audience had no doubt ex- pected. Instead of that, he was go- ing to make a will, and those pres- ent were to be " sole bettetieiary legateea. He left to the Author's Club the most precious possesslon that was ever his-his Joy in hard work. He continued!

Scientist Describes New Vital Life Rays Tiantic City, N.J.-Ciaim that he has discovered vital "lite" rays in radiations beyond the shortest visi- ble rays of light was made by Dimini- try Borodin. ot New York, before the American Association for the Advance- ment ot Science. These invisible rays. he says. are responsible tor the "mutations" ot heredity, the changes which cause every person to be different in some details ot appearance and character trom every other person on earth. These "mutations" are caused by alternations in "genes" the deter- miners of hereditary characters for all men. animals, and plants. The rays he said are generated by all livlng bodies and hence reach and change the genes. The rays range trom 2800 Angstrom units down to 1800. which means that they are very short wave forms ot ultra violet "iight." The existence ot such rays has been studied by scientists for some time. What Dr. Borodin claims to have discovered is how they attect life at its beginnings. He detected these activities by use ot spectros- cope.

On the Sabbath Jesus. as His cue. tom was, went to church. The Mbt'- vice, as usual, was in charge of the local elder. Seeing Jesus in the con- gregation, and evidently knowing him as one likely to have something worth- while to say. ' he asked Him to speak. Rather short notice! The ei.

When a scribe made a state- ment he supported it by referring to some great teacher of the past. Jesus deliberately cast aside all this refer- ence to tradition.

THE MASTER or BODY, Mark 1: 29- INTRODUCTION - Today's passage does two things: (a) It gives 3 pie- ture of a typical day in Jesus' life at this time. A Sabbath day is chosen The rapid succession of incidents emu phasizes the ceaseless activity and the strain under which the Master was laboring all the time. (b) It stresses that consciousness of power and the authority which characterized Itesus ever since his baptism at Jot- dan and his conflict in the wilderness. In every case he is the masterful per- ‘sonality who is more than equal for levery situation. I. THE MASTER or Mr.ND, Mark 1:21-28. 34. III. THE SECRET or POWER, Mark 1:35. Verse 27 expresses the astonish- ment of the people because Jesus did not imoke the name of some other spirit which the man's demon would obey. This was the usual method. Jusus looked for no other name. He had within Hincclf the power to heal and to soothe. II. THE MASTER OF BODY, Mar: 1: 29- tu. After the synagogue r,erviee, Jesus, with some of His disciples, went to the home of Simon and Andrew. He was not yet recognized as a healer of bodily disease, but since the senior woman was the real head of the house, ‘her illness was mentioned by way of explaining her absence. Marl; vividly records Jesus' response, "He came, took her by the hand, raised her up." At once the fever left her, and she busied herself with those du- ties which her illness had made for the time impossible. Convalescence from fever is usually very slow. But so great was the strength that Jesus was able to arouse that this woman .went immediately to her work. Once ‘more the God-filled spirit of Jesus proved to be the master. The news about the healed demon. C and Simon's mother-in-law spread like wildfire throughout the city.

Nevertheless it .s probable that the people assumed that Jesus would be reluctant to heal on the Sabbath, or they themselves would consider it wrong. Therefore after sunset (v. 32) they brought their sick folk. With them came Iso the "demon-possessed.'! Mark's theory is that the demons, being supernatural, knew who was.

THE SECRET or rowan. Mark 1:35. It does not help us any, either in' our u derstanding of Jesus, or in out own efforts to live like Him, to be told that He was able to do all that He, did simply because of His divinity. If he could tap resources which are closed to us, then His oft-repeated ap- pcal to follow Him becomes meaning- less and mocking words. Conventional Christianity is always tempted to place Jesus where it is easy to adore Him, but impoeeible to emulate Him. Verse 35 indicates the secret of Jesus' power. It was prayer, a secret diseovcrnble by us, too. When Jesus was alone, He was always praying. Worn out by the exhausting events of the day, He was conscious of the need of spiritual recox.y. Hence, when His tired disciples were asleep, He stole away to some solitary place to be alone with His Father. For exam- ple, see Luke 6: 12. Intimate and frequent communion with Iris Father Jesus regarded as the secret of spirit- ual effectiveness. "Why could m. we cast Him out?” asked the phrplexed and unsuccessful disciples, Matt. 17: 19. They had "followed the directions," Aut nothing had happened. This was Jesus' explanation: "This kind goeth [not out but _by prayer adjusting." Jesus, with no organizat'on or ma- tual equipment such as we possess today, brought healing to mind and body, and gave men a new spirit. To His disciples he said, "Greater works than these shall he do . . . John 14: 12. He would lever have sbid so if He had not meant it.
