The Straight

TEXT-Strlve to ontiT In at the atrnlght
gate; for many, I say unto you. will seek
to enter in. and shall not bo uble. Luke
13:21
The occasion for this warning of
Jesus was a question asked him by
one of his follow
ers as he went
through the cities
aud' villages
teaching and
Journeying toward
Jerusalem. The
question was,
"Are there few '
that be saved V
As Matthew
Henry says, It
may bave been a
serious question,
a curlouB one, or
a captlouB one.
but nevertheless
It was one of
deep and momen
tous importance to us. As another
says, If one ne?ds to know the num
ber of the saved In this dispensation
he has only to look around him and
compare the ways of man. with the
word of God. He will soon come to
the conclusion, If be Is on honest man,
that the saved are few. It la an aw
ful conclusion, and our souls natu
rally turn away from It, but Scripture
as well as fact shut us up to it. Sal
vation (Is offered to all, but few are
willing to comply with lt,s terms.
The Need of Effort.
Our Lord answers the question In
an indirect way by a solemn exhorta
tion to this duty, "Strive to enter In
at the straight gnte." Whatever oth
ers may think about It, he would have
us feel the need for exertion. This
need Is not becauso salvation Is so
difficult In itself, for It Is written that
"Whosoever shall call upon the name
of tbe Lord shall be saved" (Romans
10:13). Hut the striving la necessi
tated (1) by the power of tho counter
acting influences of the world, whose
gate is "wide," as we see from Mat
thew 7:13 and (2) because of the
subtlety of false teachers, as we see
in the same Scripture; and finally
(3), because of the urgency of tbe
times, inasmuch as tho day is com
ing, and perhaps sooner than we ex
pect, when "The Master of the bouse"
shall "shut the door."
The 6elf-Deceived Ones.
Our Lord enforces bin exhortation
by describing thut day, ndding: "For
many, I say unto you, will seek to en
ter In and shall not bo able." The
long-euffering of Cod towards men
will some day have an end. It will be
the day when our Lord, shall come
again, and we know not how soon It
may be. The throne of grace will be
removed then and the throne of judg
ment set up In its place. It is awful
to think that men who are now re
jecting the blood of tho Lamb will
then be exposed to the wrath of the
Lamb.
But tho most astounding part of It
is that so many in that day will find
themselves to bave been self-deceived.
In this place In Luke, and in tbe
parallel plac. , In Matthew's Gospel,
Christ calls attention to four kinds of
self-deception, lie speaks of those
who have been his guests, so to speak,
eating and drinking in his presence;
he speaks of those who have listened
to his teachings; of Uiobo vbo bave
taught bis word, and of those who
bave wrought his signs. None of these
on that account merely bave any claim
upon his blessing in the life to come.
What need there Is for solemn self
examination here.
The Meaning of the Gate.
Of course when our Lord speaks of
the "gate" be really means himself,
and he said at another time, "I am the
door; by me if any man enter In, be
shall be saved and shall go In and
out and find pasture. (John 10:9)."
We enter In by believing on the Lord
Jesus Christ as our Savior and con
fessing him as our Lord. Have you
yet definitely done this? ' If so, why
not do it now as you think upon these
words? The distinguishing mark that
we are saved, thnt we are bis disci
ples, and that eternal glory is before
ns, is tbe fruit that we bear. Christ
makes this, very plain, In this same
discourse, but blessed . bo bis name,
when we receive him as our Savior
he gives us his Holy Spirit so that we
are enabled to bring forth this fruit.
Indeed he himself produces it in us.
Who would not trust himself to such
a friend? Let me urge' you to do It
as the first and most important of all
things for your well-being In time and
eternity. I know there are other
things, other allurements, holding you
back, but what are they in compar
ison with thiB?
There was a shipwreck on the Pa
cific one or two winters ago, when
a certain vessel went to pieces, on
which there was a passenger who had
with him a bag containing (1,500 in
gold. Survivors said that he fran
tically offered that bng of gold to any
one who would place him on shore
but his gold lay on the broken deck,
kicked under foot, no one stopping to.
pick it up. How this impresses us
with tbe Importance of salvation and
eternal life abovo all things which this
world can offer, and the Importance
of our striving to "enter In at tbe
straight gate" whllo the opportunity
offers.
Must Be No Hesitation.
The Issues are with God, and bis
servants know not the word disap
pointment, for they are Incapable of
reading bis designs. Only this tbey
know, that the sllgbtost hesitation in
obeying what tbey believe to be a
divine impulse, produces a Buffering
more intense than any consequences
wbicb may accrue to them from tbe
world. Laurence Ollpbant

LESSON FOR MARCH 23
REVISW.
IIKADINO I.ESRON-Nuhemlah 9:K-S1.
GOLDEN TEXT-HlKhU-ousncxs exolt
ith a nation; but sin Is a reproach to any
iople. Prov. 14:34.
According to Professor Beecher the
extent of the period we bave been
tudying during the last quarter Is
3.13 years, from the death of Joshua
I). C. 1434 to tbe reign of Saul, which
began 1). C. 1102. Though other
chronologists may differ slightly, this
Is approximately correct.
We may roughly divide thl period
into the republic of God and the king
dom of man. In the first section we
studied tho period of the Judges,
Barak, Gideon, Samson and Samuel;
one prophotoss, Deborah; also the
prlost Kli and' bis sons; Samuel and
Ahlab; and Itutb, who was an ances
tress of our great high priest. In
tbe second section we considered Saul
the king, and a prince, Jonathan,
Saul's son. While the lessons may
thus be roughly divided, yet we fuel
that a general review of the charac
ters and the principal lesson to be
learned from each will perhaps be tho
most profitable form of review.
There aro four things to be said
about each character and his relation
to tho events occurring in Israel: (1)
The people had departed from God;
thero was disobedience and a reli
gious decline. (2) God permitted -on
the part of Israel's enemies oppression
thut finally became unbearable. (3)
There was repentance on the part of
the people and an appeal to God for
help. (4) God raised up a judge who
"saved" the people and through this
judgo wonderful acts were performed
showing his power and the favor
which rested upon Israel. The adult
classes can profitably discuss such
questions as, "Why did the people so
easily forsake God?" "Why and how
did their repentance so quickly lead
to their deliverance?" "How did God
help the people to return unto blm?"
"What were the methods and the prin
ciples UBCd Id God's punishment of the
people's sinsf "Was this form of
government In vogue a failure:"
Coming to tho second section, many
questions suggest themselves: "What
advantages and opportunities did Saul,
the first king, bave?" "How did his
failure begin?" "What was tho es
sential difference between the king
dom of Saul and the Republic of God
under the Judges?" "What aro the
outstanding characteristics of Jona
than's life and character?" "What
great message for today do these
characters and these two forms of
government -have?" Doctor Torrey
suggests a profitable form of review,
viz., a doctrinal review: (1) Tbe
teachings of tho lessons of the past
quarter about Jehovah and tbe Holy
Spirit; (2) The preview, types and
manifestations of the tord Jesus;
(3) Tbe teaching about sin and tbe
particular sins mentioned; and (4)
The teachings about tbe word of bod.
Of course to do all this, or to follow
any part of these suggestions wt!. de
mand that much work shall bo as
signed in advance and that great care
shall be exercised to make any one
of these linos a connected and inter
esting whole. Above all, beware of
attempting too much lest the schol
ars become confused. Better far to
emphasise ' one lie and let it sink
deep than to spread over so much ma
terial that no one single Impression
will be a lasting ana (
If someone can be secured who is
moderately successful In using tbe
blackboard an Interesting review can
be presented to younger scholars by
making a drawing presenting a "ball
of fame," with panels for Deborah,
Gideon, Ruth, Samuel and Jonathan.
Another drawing may, by comparison,
be termed the "rogues' gallery," and
may have in It panels for Samson, Eli,
Eli's sons, and Saul. Tben tell, as
simply, as possible, the salient points
in the history of each and show how
God approved or disapproved of their
lives;' wblch were used, and which
set aside. Any school can have be
fore It on a chart or a blackboard the
following:
Tie lessons, chief persons, chief
tacts are given In order.
1. Joshua, Iraelites, Judges; a great
patience. 2. Deborah, Barak, Sisera;
a great deliverance. 3. Gideon, Angel
of Jehovah; a great call. 4. Gideon,
The Three Hundred; a great test
6. M anon a, Samson; a great failure.
6. Naomi, Ruth, Orpha; a great re
solve. 7. EH1, Samuel, Jehovah; a
great vision. 8. Philistines, Israelites,
Eli; a great capture. 9. Samuel; a
great victory. 10. Samuel, Saul; a
great honor. 11. Nahash, Saul; a
great rescue. 12. Jonathan, Armor
bearer; a great hero.
With the aid of this chart It will
be easy to draw a word picture of
the lessons of this quarter or to con
duct an oral review. It might be wise
to have read a short account of, "The
girl who married an Immigrant"
(Ruth); ?A .battle with lights and
pitchers' (Gideon) ; "What a boy
heard at night" (Samuel); "How a
'youth helped" (Jonathan's armor-boar-cr);
"Physically - strong, morally
weak" (Samson); "A woman who
saved her people" (Deborah); "How
the ark was lost," "Tbe story and
meaning of Ebenezer." 'It would
also be a traltful expenditure of time
to question the school upon tbe struc
ture of tbe Old Testament, Its fonr di
visions, and the books of each division.
Locate tbe lessons of this quarter in
these divisions and show thetr rela
tion to tbe history and development

SALOON THE PA.UPER MAKER.
One out of every ten people a
pauper! This statement Is made con
cerning Cook county, Illinois, of
which county tho city of Chicago con
stitutes tbe chief part, and is given
In the annual report of the president
of the board of county commissioners.
During last ear the number helped
was 250,000, the chief cause of need
In 9,000 of these cases being reported
as unemployment. Tbe close connec
tion between the 7,000 saloons of
Chicago and the burden of pauperism
Is easily seen. Any business man
accustomed to employ labor could
make a tolerably accurate conjecture
thnt fully two-thirds of the men who
cannot In ordinary times secure em
ployment are unreliable and undesir
able as workmen because of their In
dulgence In liquor.
And the men and women who each
year dig deep into their pockets for
the taxes necessary to care for these
250, COO paupers and other dependent
citizens, are in a majority of cases
the same men and women who li
cense the in.ititutlun that produces
them!
MENACE TO THE BOY.
(From the speech of Congressman
Gsrrqtt of Texas, In behalf of the
Hobson resolution.)
"I aro not afraid of the blind tiger
for my boy or myself, but of the tiger
that can see tho tiger that stands on
every prominent corner with bright
Hunts that blink at me. Young men
do not begin the drink habit In the
blind tigers. They learn to drink at
mahogany tables In the high class beer
gardens and restaurants, where they
serve nice little drinks with fruit stick'
ing around them. When you took
our slaves away from us we suffered,
but wo thank you for it today. We
thought we bad a right to decide that
question for ourselves, but you said
we could not Now when we want
to destroy the saloon curse, you will
yell 'states rights' at us."
JUallORS DRY UP THE TOWN.
In Georgetown, O., a few weeks be
fore election, young men of from fif
teen to twenty years of age organ
ized a Junior Business Men's club and
announced themselves as a "bunch of
winners." They made a thorough
canvass of the town and solicited
every voter, saying to the drinking
classes, "You wanted saloons in
yonr day; you've had them; we boys
don't want them In our midst; won't
you help give ns what we want?" The
result was thnt Georgetown went
"dry" three to one. This campaign
has attracted much attention in the
state and the "wets" feel they bave
nothing to hope from the new gen
eration about to step Into the eleo
torato. LIFE-CONSERVER.
An exhaustive investigation into
3,000,000 lives Insured during the last
24 years was recently completed by
the life insurance companies. Ar
thur Hunter, a New York actuary, re
porting some of these findings to tbe
Association of Life Insuranco Presi
dents in New York city, said tbey
showed that "tho loss of 500.000 men
In the present war could be made
good In less than ten years through
complete abstinence from alcohollo
beverages by the inhabitants of Rus
sia." FOOD FOR THOUGHT.
Tbe following figures , are given by
a writer in economics: In 36S days
there are (24 hours to the day) 8.670
hoars. Tbe church is open on an
average of 600 hours a year, tbe
schools about 1,900 hours, the aver
age factory about 2,400 hours, and
the average business concern about
2,800 hours, while the saloon and
other like resorts are open about 4,725
hours.
SAME OLD PROBLEM.
Tbe problem that faces us today
is the problem all ages have wrestled
with, and tbe pen of history has. yet
' to record Its pcrfuct solution, that of
causing the Individual to accept In his
life the ideas and the Ideals that mark
the trail cf an advanced civilisation.

GOOD JOB FOR BOYS.
At an Epworth league, meeting re
cently a group of boys, each with a
spade on his shoulder, marched to
the platform. Another boy met them
and asked: "Where are you going,
boys?" In nnison and with emphasis
they replied: "Going to bury the
liquor traffic," and then marched from
the stage.
CONFIDENCE IN PHYSICIANS.
Said E. L. Stewart, M. D., in a re
cent articlo in Kansas City Star:
"The liquor truffle could meet no surer
end today than to leave Its fate In the
hands of , the physicians of the United
8tates."
TEMPERANCE REFORM ADVANCE.
"A movement of victorious yester
days and confident tomorrows." Thus
the Union Signal epitomizes the ad
vance of tho temperance reform.
KILLS AND PRESERVES.
Alcohol kills tbe living and pre
serves tbe dead.
Jesus' Most Loved Disciple.
A special , interest attaches to St
John, "the disciple whom Jesus loved."
He, outlived all the other apostles, es
caped martyrdom and died peacefully
at the age of ninety-four at Ephesns
In tbe year of oar Lord one hundred.
This apostle, the youngost of tbo 12,
Is always represented as a young man
