General topic: Paul in Corinth.
Scripture lesson: Acts 18:1-11.
Acts 18:1. After these things he
departed from Athens, and taine to
Corinth.
2. And he found a certain Jew
named Aquilla, a man of Pontus by
race, lately come from Italy, with
his wife Priscilla, because Claudius
had commanded all the Jews to de.
part from Rome: and he came unto
tli'.m;
3. And because he was of the
same trade, he abode with them, and
they wrought; for by their trade
they were tentmakers.
4. And he reasoned in the syna-
gogue every sabbath, and persuaded
Jews and Qreeks.
5. But when Silas and Timoihy
came down from Macedonia, Paul
was constrained by the word, testi-
fying to the Jews that Jesus was the
Christ.
6. And when they opposed them-
selves and blasphemed, he shook
ou& his raiment and said unto them,
Your blood be upon your own heads:
I am clean: from henceforth X will
go unto the Gentiles.
7. And he departed thence, and
went Into the house of a certain
man named Titus Justus, one that
worshipped God, whose house joined
hard to the synagogue.
8. And Crispus, the ruler of the
synagogue, believed in the Lord with
all his house; and many of the
Corinthians hearing believed, and
were baptized.
9. And the Lord said unto Paul in
the night by a vision, Be not afraid,
but speak and hold not thy peace;
10. For I am with thee, and no
man shall set on thee to harm thee:
for I have much people in this city.
11. And he dwelt there a year and
six months, teaching the word or
God among them.

hope, love, these three: and the
greatest of these is love.—i cor

Time: A. D. 51, 52.
Place: Athens, Corinth.
PAUL IN ATHENS
"When he reached Athens, Paul
caine to a city which has never been
equaled as an original intellectual
force. It is renowned as the city
of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle
among philosophers, of Solon and
Pericles among statesmen, of De-
mosthenes among orators, of Aeschy-
lus and Sophocles among dramatists,
of Herodotus and Thucydides among
historians, of Pindar among lyric
poets, and of Phidias among sculpt-
ors. Though Athens in Paul's day
had fallen from its ancient glory,
it was still resplendent with incom-
parable works of art, and especially
its great rocky hill, the Acropolis,
glittering with marble temples, above
all the Parthenon, the temple of
Minerva." Every gateway and porch
carried its protecting god. Every
street, every square, nay, every pur-
lieu had its sanctuaries; and a Ro-
man poet bitterly remarked that it
was easier in Athens to find gods
than men
"And because he was of the same
trade, he abode with them." If, as
is most probable, they were already
Christians as well as Jews, that
would furnish the strongest bond
uniting the apostle to them. "Fcr
by their trade they were tentmak-
ers," Thus the tltree formed both a
business and a spiritual partnership
—one of the finest In history.
"And he reasoned In the syna-
gogue every sabbath." Here also,
as at Athens and everywhere else,
Paul began with the Jews and in the
synagogue, finding there his easi-
est start and most fruitful field
TURNS TO THE GENTILES
"And when they opposed them-
selves and blasphemed, he shook out
his raiment." A vigorous gesture of
entire separation from them, as if
he would get rid of even the duit
that might have settled on him
from -hem. "And said unto them,
Your blood be upon your own
heads; I am clean." I am hence-
forth free from responsibility witl
NEEDY CHILDREN ARE
GIVEN LUNCHEONS
WITHOUT COST
The cafeteria opened Thursday at
Baker school already is proving to
be a success, according to members
of the Baker Parent-Teacher asso-
ciation, who are sponsoring the
project.
It was announced that 50 paid
luncheons and 30 free luncheons
were served Thursday, and about
the same nmbers Friday.
Mrs. H. G. Meyers, business man-
ager for the cafeteria, is assisted by
Mrs. H. D. Jones. Mrs. J. W. Crowd-
er.is in charge of the cooking and
regard to you; I have done all that I ^.rvi"? Tllose assistinK in serving

said this before, as in the Pisidian
Antioch (Acts 13:46), and In other
cities, as in Corinth, had begun hl.s
ministry with the Jews, which he
was to continue doing when he came
to new cities (see Acts 18:8), which
shows that such expressions relate
only to the local ministry.
VISION IN THE NIGHT
"And the Lord said unto Paul in
the night by a vision." We are not
told why this vision of Christ was
needed, but Paul was evidently de-
sponding on account of the opposi-
tion to his work and he was in per-
sonal danger. "Be not afraid."
Those words were often on the lips
of the Lord when he was in the
flesh. "But speak and hold not thy
peace." Do not allow this opposi-
tion to quell your ardor, to daunt
your spirit. The more difficult the
hostility, the more need of brave
Christian perseverance.
"For i am with thee, and no man
shall set on thee to harm thee."
This shows that fear of bodily haim,
such as he had suffered so ter-
ribly at Lystra and at Philippi, had
something to do with Paul's de-
spondency. "For i have much peo-
ple in this city." "it was in purpose
and prescience as yet that Christ
had them as his people, and not in
accomplished fact. But this pres-
cience, instead of suppressing ef-
fort, is given as the encouragement
to exertion. And Paul understood
his Lord. The intimation that a
multitude of the Corinthians would
certainly be saved spurred him on
to instpnt and persevering labor in
the gospel, that thereby he might
save some."
PAUL BEFORE GALLIO
"The opposition of the Jews,
which, at the beginning of St. Paul's
stay in Corinth, had driven him
from the synagogue and forced him
to seek a new center for his work,
and which had continued to impede
necessary to give
lunches (about 50)
tions from various individuals will
be necessary to provide the initial
equipment, according to Mrs. S. G.
Atwood, member of the organida-
tion. Dishes or any other equip-
ment necessary for serving the chil-
dren will be appreciated, It was
said. Later, the cafeteria Is expected
to be self-suppoprting.
Free luncheons are given only to
those children recommended by the
Welfare board.
Announcement will bo made later
of those contributing to the cafe-
teria, Mrs. Atwood said.
Each of the following items is
placed on sale daily for 5 cents per
item: soup, sandwiches, vegetables,
desserts, and beverages (milk and
cocoai.

The brief account of Paul's ad-1 culled "the fascinating Gallio," so
dress which Luke gives us is enough charming were his manners,
to show how powerful and wise It
must have been. The apostle took
his text from an altar which he had
seen inscribed — in the Athenians'
anxiety not to omit any deity from
their pantheon, for fear of offend-
ing him—'"To an Unknown God."
"That unknown God," said Paul, "I
can tell you about. He Is the one
God, who made the world and all
things therein, who docs not dwell
In men-made temples, who made of
one all nations, in whom we all live,
after whom all men are instinctive-
ly groping though he Is not far
away."
THE CITV OF CORINTH
"After these things he departed
from Athens, and came to Corinth."
"Corinth was situated on the nar-
row passage of land which connected
the northern portion of Greece with
tjie Morea. The connecting piece of
land was called the Isthmus, and so
great was Its fame that Its name has
since been bestowed upon every sim-
ilarly situated neck of land. The
town Itself gave its name to the
fruit which is so popular under the
name of currants. Corinth of the
two seas, as the city was styled by
poets, was magnificently situated
for purposes of trade. All travelers,
whether for business or pleasure,
between the northern and southern
parts of Greece, had to pass by the
gates of Corinth. In addition to
this, Its two harbors, Lcchaeum on
the west and Cenchreae on the cast.
were full of ships which came from
every country which was known at
that day, crowded with travelers
eager to drink deeply of the pleas-
ures of this famous city of delight.
Corinth was the Paris of the Em-
pire. A mercantile town, its chief
business was to attract wealthy for-
eigners whose purse-strings would
not be kept too tightly drawn. The
shameless licentiousness of the
place was notorious even under the
Empire.
AQUILLA AND PRISCILLA
"And he found a certain Jew
named Aquilla." A Latin name,
meaning "eagle." "With his wife
Priscilla." Also called Prlsca, of
which Priscilla Is a diminutive
form. It is not said that she was a
Jew, and she may have been a Ro-
man of a higher social rank than
Aquilla, being commonly named
first. But no other married couplc
in the Bible appear In such com*
plete all-round association." Both
were earnest Christians, both teach-
on of the Word, and they aurked
together at the same trade.
Before this accomplished and pop.
ular ruler the apostle was brought
by the Jews who were furious at the
success of Christianity in Corinth.
The charge was that Christianity
was not a religion formally allowed
by the Roman law to be taught.
Gallio did not wait for Paul to make
his defense, but at once decided that
no question of wrongdoing was be-
fore him, only a question "about
words and names and your own
law," which they should attend to
themselves; and he drove them con-
temptuously from his court.
THE LOVE CHAPTER
Paul was making his long stay i.i
Ephesus during his third anniversary
Journey when a committee reached
him from Corinth, telling him of
dissensions in the church and of
evil practices which had arisen, and
he wrote his first Corinthian Epistle
to urge unity and purity on the
Christians of Corinth. In the thir-
teenth chapter of the letter "we en-
ter into the purest atmosphere and
breathe the most fragrant odors.
"With the exception of the end of
Rem. 8, this is the most beautiful
and moving passage in St. Paul's
letters."—Principal John K. Mazley
"Nowhere does Paul show more
clearly how entirely his thought is
ruled by the Spirit of the Lord Jes-
us. This hymn is a lyrical interpre-
tation of the Sermon on the Mount
—the Beatitudes set to music." —
Prof. W. F. Howard. "For moral
elevation, for richness and compre-
hensiveness, for beauty and felicity
of expression, this chaptcr has been

CHURCH of CHRIST
Francis and Warren
We give six days of each week to
our business and pleasure and
sometimes we want to use the Lord's
day also. Such is equal to a beggar
meeting a man with $7. Upon the
approach of the beggar, the man
gives him $6 and wishes him well.
The beggar then rushes around the
corner and borrows a gun. He runs
up to the man who gave him $6
and demands the other dollar also.
What do you think of such a man?
This Is the very spirit we manifest
when we use the Lord's day for our
own pleasure or profit. The Lord
has been good to us. Let us show
our appreciation by being at the
house of the Lord next Sunday.

If you suffer from ordinary con-
stipation, you will be benefited
by Kellogg's All-Bran. Millions
have found it brings relief.
Scientific tests show All-Bram
supplies "bulk," Vitamin B, and
iron. "Bulk" promotes elimina-
tion. Vitamin B tones the intes-
tinal tract. Iron helps build blood.
In the package, All-Bran has
a shredded appearance. But
within the bfcly, It changes to a
soft mass, which gently cleanses
the intestines, ft ia much like
the "bulk" in lettuce, or spinach.
Get the red-and-greon packago
at your grocer's. Try two table-
spoonfuls daily for a week. All-
Bran is natural — far better
than pills or drugs, which may
cause too strenuous action.
All-Bran is already cooked,
flavored and
krumbled — bran
in its finest form.
Serve as a cereal
or try the deli-
cious recipes on
the package.
