The Question the Guns Answer The International Sunday School Lesson for April l'l Is "Jesus acquires Confession and Loyally."—Mark H; 1,9:1 By WILLIAM T. ELLIS Doubtless it would help clarify the thinking of some persons concerning! this great war if they were to look j at only one section of it, that part j which is comprehended within Bible; lands, and realize that the question j ' is whether Christianity and ciyiliza- : tion, or Islam and deterioration and ; terrorization. is to rule over the an- J cient pages. The Christian Allies are j thundering in dreaii gunpowder j tones, "Thou are the Christ," —Thou. ! *nd not Mohammed. The issue that i has brought on this long-expected . war is at root the question of the place of Christ in life. Shall the Carpenter be sovereign or the camel- ; driver? May Moslem continue to o|>- [.itss Christian? Vivid and near as this supreme question of life is made by the wai in Europe, it is not singular for it : thus to be actualized. This is the i*Mie which has been dividing human j ciety, and creating wars and con- llict, ever sine* the gentle Galilean Peasant trod the pleasant fields of j Palestine. Walking close by every nation, and rising to assert itself at I the most unexpected moment, is this I question of questions, which no man tan escape for himself—"Whom say ye that .1 am?" (•ettliiK l)on to lliihlm A town meeting is called to consid- ! e ■ an important and immediate issue. I and then it fritters its opportunity j away by irrelevant questions and discussions. This is so with almost j every gathering. Lying on the sur- j face of this tragic conference at j Caesarea Phillippi, which we study ' t< -day, are many subjects for discus- j s ; on. Yet at bed rock the issue is j wholly one of the character and mis- j sion of Christ. Was He the Messiah, the One long prophesied and ex- j pccted? The lieutenants of Jesus reported I to their leader the common opinion , of their day and world. He was re- J imted by one party, they said, to be ; the Baptist, another declared that He j was Klijah come again, others con- i tended that He was Jeremiah in the j flesh. All conceded Him an extra- j otdinary place. This was the opin- j ion of the scholars and of the so- | phisticated men of the time. The > world's best wisdom agreed that j Jesus was not like other men. and j , the most grudging of verdicts in the ! centuries since grants Him at least | this much. Not flattered, but rather disheart- ] entd by this report, Jesus turned from the wisdom of the wise to the j simple faith of His own friends.) Then, as now. the eyes of the heart , had clearest vision. Lowly belief saw j further than scholarly skepticism. | Therefore Peter's prompt reply rang . boldly out, thrilling the heart of the! 1' nely Leadr, who in this hour of | luing understood and trusted, "Thou! pre the Christ." With all his faults. I teter had that spiritual faculty which I discerns the inwardness of truth, j His was elemental wisdom. That same wisdom discerns Christ , standing at the crossroads of time, h <- swaiting the judgment of men upon; Himself, by which judgment men j I themselves are to be judged. A (irrnt Soul'* Suffering Lifting its snow-crowned head in i grandeur so high that it dominates j the entire region of Palestine from Jerusalem north, stands Mount | Hebron, strong in its majesty and beauty. To trie solitude and strength j of this mountain Jesus had taken ! His friends. At its foot, in or near j Caesarea Pliillippi. He underwent , this experience, which some writers | have called the "passion of the north." Here He faced the question, of what He had come into the world ( for and how far the world recognized ; • Him and His mission. Into every strong life there come these experi ences, when the" soul is searched to Its depth, and the eternal "why?" is ( fronted in all its solemnity. * Suffering by anticipation is keenest pain. *lt is not the shock of the bul- | let in the body, but the thought of | it that hurts the more. Jesus under- i v. ent His Calvary in spirit beneath | tlie shadow of Mount Hebron. What j this crisis of self-examination and o'" realized public appraisal meant to j Him we cannot understand. We j know that His soul was exceedingly j sorrowful. Out of the. depths of this ( hour flowed the sublime teaching of; self-renunciation. Here Christ lifted ! up the cross upon which He later; was to be lifted. A Friend's Koolisli Counsel Nobody suffers alone. We are tied tftgether in the bundle of life, for weal or for woe. The sharpest thorn in the Leader's crown of sorrow was the knowledge of the suffering of His disciples. To prepare them for what lay before them, Jesus "began! to teach them that the Son of Man! must suffer many things and be re-| jected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes and be killed,' and after three days rise again." Without figure of speech and with utmost directness and plainness, He; told these men who were looking forward to earthly crowns that the J world had for them nothing better> than crosses. At this point the mistake which is j Tonal! Health Talks General Debility In tlie Sprtng Is the Time to Take Tonall In the life of every human being! there comes a time when the body.! either from over-eating, lack ofi exercise, or too much strain, either' mental or physical, undergoes a | feeling of weariness or unrest. By treating this lightly only loads; to other complications. The right thing to do is to take steps to tone ; £ ti,) tlie system, by which >ve moan j the blood, liver and digestive organs. ! The spring of the year is generally' the time when nature begins to as- ! pert itself, but often needs some aid : in the way of a Tonic. Tonall is a force just needed to! perform this ai;! to nature. The j well-known roots, herbs and barks t contained in 'lonall will prove to! you their remedial properties, purge the body of all such debilitating. humours, which cause the trouble. There are no poisonous drugs, but! Nature's vegetable remedy. Prof. | Heck's analysis is wrapped with j every bottle. Tonall is sold at Gorgas' Drug] f-'torc, Harrisburg, Pa., where the | Tonall chemist will explain its i wcrits. FRIDAY EYENTNG being made every day by tond par i cnts and friends was made, by im | PUlsive Peter. He wanted to spare | hia dear Master the suffering which | Jesus had indicated, j Just so there are some short sighted families who would keep their sons from the dangers and- dis i ciplino of war. They unconsciously ; l<old to the craven philosophy that ] the comfort of the carcass is the real I end of life. Whereas, we know that ■ the war has won the achievement of ' grandeur of character by myriads of men. i Of course, Peter was shortsighted and foolish. The Peter plan is re sponsible for thousands of sons and daughters who have come to ma turity unfit for life's burdens. Par ents have spared children hardships to the softening of their soul liber. Pedagogy, philosophy and religion all j unite in the admonition to parents ! to teach their children to endure : hardness. No price of suffering is j too great to pay for highest useful ness. We cannot escape the profound f truth that ability to serve mankind | in loftiest ways always costs tears ' and bloody sweat. Something of shock comes to us as jwe (ind the gentle Master saying i sharply to the man whose confession | a short time earlier had been award ed the keys of heaven, "Get thee be li nd me, Satan." Whatever leads one ' aside from his truest destiny is of j the evil one. One of the worst of I all mistakes in life is to seek the i easy way. The temptation to escape | llie burdens and cares and hardships of life by shrinking clear duty Is a j temptation from Satan himself, even though it come in the loving solici ! tude of parent or wife or nearest ' friend. The Trnilemnrk of Christianity ! A New York advertising man. Her j bcrt Houston, once spoke of the cross its the "trademark of Christianity." I That was a happy phrase, and more. It plows deep into the soil of the j mind. The genuine article is always , known by its trademark. True . i iiristianity never lacks the cross. I The followers of Christ all wear His | brand; as Paul said, "I hear in my ! body tlie brand marks of the Lord J Jesus. In tile words of our lesson, j Jesus himself says, "if any man would come after me, let him denv ! himself and take up his cross and follow Me." The size of a human soul is meas | ined by its capacity for suffering. : i fie greatest saints have been those | to whom the cross was the most real ; sperience. That symbol of surren der and of suffering and of sacrifice I I and of service is more than a s sym- ' ; hoi: It is a life reality. Out of'the j aepths of His own agony in the ! "passion of the north," Jesus deliv- . cred to humanity this great truth of 1 | the life spent in suffering and in ! service. What else than this is the deepest nend of our day—men and women who will lose their lives for. the world's sake, and who will pour out their souls unto death, and who worJ r ™ lfle i with Chr,st ' that the, | world may have the life of Christ? j in this vicariousness is victory.

Robert L. Myers, West' i Shore coal administrator in a state-' ! ment this morning said: "An effort is being made by the j ! Cumberland county fuel administra-j j tibn and the retail coal dealers of; 1 the West Shore to keep the price of j i coal below $8 per ton, or very close | ! to that figure, without encroaching] i upon legitimate profits. "The State Fuel Administrator lias I promised the dealers clean coal, thus i reducing the cost of screening and in j most cases eliminating it entirely. He has also assured the dealers lull I weight, thus eliminating loss byj shortage. The Ketail Dealers' As-! sociation is asked to co-operate in getting from tne coal companies and | operators what its members pay for , and are entitled to. Have Promises Ready The Cumberland County Fuel Ad-: ministration will advise the con- j sumers to have their premises in! readiness to receive coal, thus re- I during delays in unloading. It will' , not sanction the delivery of carload' I lots direct from the mines to ton- j sumers. During the continuance of the war, it will discourage new] j dealers from going into the coal I ; business. Organized charity, to which i ; all contribute, and the church arei ' asked to take care of the improvi-j 1 dent and unfortunate, thus relieving j the retail coal dealers of that bur-1 ; den.

The time and expense of collecting billp will largely be I saved to the dealer. "The prices are now being worked ! out.
