A COMMUNICATION. Last week's Times published from good authorities reasons why men should not use tobacco es pecially in the ciragette form, and often has been deplored the habit of sending tobacco and eigamts to France. No one will deny the injurious effects of tobacco, especially on the younger classes, and to some extent on the olde ones, but noth ing lias been done to eliminate to bacco from our American soldiers while they were in training here and now that they are across in the midst of excitements and dangers why should we league ©urselves together against sending them the one thing which they want most, and about the only thing which they ask for. Foot ball and basket ball play ers are not allowed to use tobacco and the rules governing this are very imperative. They must dis continue one or the other, and this is as it should be, but it leaves no alternative for the soldier, for if they do not see that they can dis continue the use of tobacco amidst the hardships of war they ought not be forced to do it through the whims of "objectors" who do not understand the good which the boys get from the stimulation of a (few puffs of cigarette or pipe. Let the reform begin in the home with the young children, in the baby room in school and in Sun day schools, and maybe when they must cro and fight the Hun It will not fall to their relatives an.l friends to raise tobacco funds for them: but lot us not inflict more hardships on our soldiers than they already have.

INTERMEDIATE TOPIC-Telllng the good news about the Prlnee of Peace. MEMORY VERSE-Mark 6:19. This lesson Is a most dramatic one. Surprise and revelation, rebuke and encouragement are rapidly Inter changed. Leaving the multitude to whom he had been preaching, Jesus asks the disciples to pass over with htm to the other side of the lake (v. 35). let us pass over Jesus never asks his disciples to go where he will not go. How vivid is the touch in v. 36: "They took him as he was." He was tired and weary, he whose Invita tion is to "all who are weary and heavy laden." He who "had not where to lay his heart," is carried by loving hands into the boat, and is soon lost in restful slumber. Both Master and friends are soon tn meet a'grent sin ner but first they must encountered a I great storm. I. The Great Sterm. The M:tster of iVuvos sloops ciilmiy on. Why not? Who olse cnuHl :\tTonl to be so appar ently IndifferentNot FO those (lis- oipU'S. They have yot to know him iiorfcctly. :\ml hence it is natural that in their alarm (hey should awaken him as they view the rabidly fillins hoat, and exclaim. "Master, carest thou not that we pori -li?" .Woury and un concerned its he appears to have been, he arose and relinked the wind and the waves. Wind and waves are matt' rial things and therefore not suscep- ililile to rebuke. .Testis fronted the in- I tangible cause he rebuked the devil who was responsible for tills turbul ence and the calm was commensurate with the storm. The Psalmist says, "Great peace have they that love thy law." Individuals and nations are now in the midst of a "great storm," a day of crime, stress, distress and tragedy struggle, temptation, grief and loss, and the cry "Lord save us!" Is growing louder and more insistent. Some of us look fer the early return of the king, but all should llSten for his words "Peace be still" for It Is the peace which he alone can give that has power to calm the growing turbulence of this age. II. The Great Sinner. Reaching the other side, they entered the land of Gadara and there met a demoniac who Is, we believe, a type of the great sin ner, for he was. (a) without restraint "no man could bind him" (v. 3) (b) he was injuring himself, "cutting," etc. (v. 5) (c) he was separated from his friends* "dwelt among the tombs" (v. 3) (d) he was "unclean" (v. 2). There was also evidence of the futility of human resolutions and the vainness of attempt at control or reformation (v. 4). "No man had the strength to tame him." Note the tor ment of his life (v. 7). As he healed this man, the people saw their illegal gain interfered with, and hence the selfish request that Jesus should "de part out of their coasts" (v. 17), and this even in the face of what had been done for the stricken one. Selfishness knows no law. The Jews could not eat pork but they were raising It to sell to the (rontiles of the bind, which amounted to an insult to their God, and an evasion of their law. Jesus "permitted" tbe demons to enter the swine thereby rebuking the avarice of the people and conclusively showing that they had left the demoniac. Luke tells us (8:37) that the Cadarenes were "taken with a great fear." Pear of what? Surely no fear of the Gall lean teacher, but rather of the effect of the restored man's testimony on their material prosperity. Big busi ness will have many sins to account for in the face of greed for gain while Ignoring the cry of the afflicted amid unsuitable and unsanitary living con ditions. Church members have no right to condemn the liquor traffic, while they rent stores to carry on this destructive business. A suggested outline for this lesson would be as follows: I. A Great Storm—Ch. 4:35-41. The command of Jesus—v. 35. The weariness of Jesus—v. 36. The alarm of the disciples—v. 38. The indifference of Jesus—v. 38. The great calm—v. 39. II. A Glorious Cure—Ch. 5:1-20. The Gadarene a type of the sin ner—vv. 1-5. (Unclean, separated, no re-' straint, self injury). The Gadarene cleansed—vv. 6-15. (He recognized purity—desired communion—was assigned to service). III. The Great Mission—vv. 16-20. An improper request (v. 17). A proper request (v. 18). A hitr-i request (v. 10).
