Phonographic Memory.
Tersons who buy phonograph rec
ords probably have noticed that most
of the dealers possess the faculty of
remembering the numbers nml do not
have to refer to the catalogues when
n record is asked for by the title and
not by the number. It's nil n matter of
practice, according to n Chamber
street dealer, who said:
"It's nil In n day's work. Ton see,
remembering the tiumbns of records Is
Just nho,t the same as remembering
telephone numbers. Some are good at

PRIMARY AND JUNIOR MEMORT
VKRHK He of good cheer, rlae; He cal
leth thee.-Mark 10:49.
Jl'NIOR AND INTERMEDIATE
TOPIC Jesus teaches how to be great.
I. Jesus Foretells His Passion and
Resurrection (vv. 32-31).
This Is the third time ho makes this
prediction. The clreunistunees ore
most fnigtj.
1. Jesus going to Jerusalem (v. 32).
He' was going with the full conscious
ness of the awful tragedy of the cros
before him the treachery of Judas,
the fiery persecutions' of the priests
nml scribes the unjust Judgment the
delivery to I'miUus I'llate the mock
ing the scourging the crown of
thorns the cross between malefactors
the nulls the spear all were spread
before him. He moves on to this
(foul, not by eiternnl necessity, but n
fixed purpose. The servant had not
come only "to minister, but to glvo
his life u ransom for many." That
which he hnd voluntarily set out to
do wns moving on to Its glorious Issue.
The Joyous outlook upon the victory
which iroAltl r.e ucwmplished through
the shfddlng of his Mood led him for
ward (Hebrews 12:2).
2. The disciples following nfter (v.
32).
They were In dread bewilderment.
His utterances nml demeanor filled
their minds with perplexity, nnd their
hearts with awe. In this state of con
fusion, Jesus called them to him nnd
pntlently Instructed them.
3. "What needs should hnppen unto
him" (vv. 33, 31).
(1) "Delivered uuto chief priests
nnd scribes."
(2) They shall condemn him to
death, mid deliver him to the Gen
tiles." ' (3) "They shall mock, scourge, spit
upon, and kill him."
(4) "The third day he shall rl.so
ngaln."
II. The Ambitious Request of James
and John (vv. 35-45).
1. The request (vv. 35-37).
It wns for n place of prominence In
the kingdom. According to Matthew,
their mother wns the intercessor.
Many mothers have been used by chil
dren to enrry out thnt which they
were themselves ashamed to do. It
is very desirable for mothers to get
places for their children near to Jesus,
but unfortunately many are seeking
the pinnacles of the world nnd for
getting the nearness to Christ.
2. Jesus' reply (vv. 3S-45). J'
(1) To Teter mid Juhn (vv. 33-40).
He spenks directly to (ho men, de
claring that they know not what they
nsk. The Lord many times has to re
prove nnd rebuke us for our blind re
quests. He showed them that the wny
to this position of glory wns through
suffering. The cup wlsich they were
to drink wns nil thnt was embraced In
the ngony on the cross. He concedes
thnt the positions which they craved
were obtainable, but In a very differ
ent wny from what they apprehended.
The way to places In glory In tha
Kingdom of Christ Is through the path
of lowly, self-forgetful service.
(2) To the ten (vv. 41-45).
The ten were dispieased with Peter
nnd John, it dSMhttess they were not
frco from the same selllsh ambitions.
Christ showed tha that to glvo Is
greater thnn to receive; that to servo
Is grenter than to be served. Tho
standard of his kingdom is to forget
self nnd serve others, even to glvo
one's life. Christ Is the supreme ex
ample to he Imitated by all who would
follow him.
III. Jesus Cures Bartimaeus of
Blindness (vv. 4l-52).
Though the weight of the cross wns
upon him, ho had time for gracious
deeds. lUlnd ISartlmaeus receives his
sight.
1. nnrtlmneus' request (vv. 40, 47).
lie cried to Jesus for mercy. The
fact that he addressed him as the Son
of David, shows thnt he recognized
his Messliihshlp. Though ho was
blind, his faith enabled hi in to talto
hold of Jesus. As soon ns he heard
that Jesus was passing by ho cried to
him for help. Jesus not only can hear
our cries, but he can even toll when
n soul yearns nfter him, and will re
spond to thnt yearning. ,
2. Itebuked ly tho multitude (v. 48).
This rebuke provoked n more earn
est cry from Ihirtlmneus. IIo be-
llevcd thnt Jesus could nnd would help
him, mid knew that It was now or
never with him. Tho fact thnt God
has brought salvntlon within our rench
should conilnce ns thnt It Is time for
us to cry for help. Therefore, we
should not nllow tho opposition of;
men to keep u's from Christ.
3. The biasing granted (vv. 49-52).
TlwKrt- Jti 539-.V bis desire, he
"iWtwJ WW t isSaltely commit him
self. God s plrawd nhen wo come to
Mm with our doflnits needs.
Vucn his eyca were opuued, ho saw
amr.y flifrrmlug t1tTti, but tho s
promo object wns Christ, for he fol
lowed him. Note experience of Uurtl
mucus :
(1) A blind beggar (v. 4G).
(2) Ills cry for mercy (v. 47).
(3) Persistence In his cry (v. 4S).
(4) Responded to tho call of Jesus
(vv. 4!). CO).' ,
(5) Made specific request (v. CI).
(0) Received his sight Imniodlutely
(v. C2).
(7) Uo followed Jesus (v. C2J.
