P ^MTURNINQ FROM CAPTIVITY. IlJSMON TEXT-Eir* t ?TPVT _-TV? T s\rA hmt>s Aon* great thlsgs for UJ, whereof we aje f'jul gKbni 2it ijt C Israeljvent Into captivity because of per slna. The time of her disciplinary process we* about to end, as lta purpose was now accomplished: namely, the cure of Israel's Idolatry. Ever Since the Babylonian captivity the Hebrew people have been worshipers of the one God. Monotheism has stood forth as a vital characteristic. The knaln reason for the Jews' maintenance of racial Identity In spite of their na| tlonal dislocation and the breaking up pt their social ties, Is the unity of their Iajth. around the one God. I. .The Proclamation of Cyrua (w. 1-4). (1) The Time of (v. 1). The first year of Cyrus; that Is the first year after his conquest of Babylon. (2) How It Was Brought About (v. 1). The Lord stirred up his spirit. The Lord often uses very unlikely agents In the accomplishment of his purposes. There Is nothing too hard for him. He can readily use a heathen king o accomplish his purpose. He can' find a way of approach to any heart. Likely Daniel was the agent used to bring the matter to the king's attention. Daniel was still the Influential prime minister of Babylon. Prom his study of the prophecies of Jeremiah (Jer. 25:12; Isn. 45:1; compare Daniel 0:2), he knew that the time was near for the return of the people to tbelr own land, so he likely hiaArtatVit fVtn mattoc fVto ntfnnHnn rtf the king and persuaded him to thus favor his people. (8) Its Contents (vv. 2-41. r (a) A confession of the true God (w. 2. 3). He acknowledges him to be the God of heaven, the Host High, the Supreme God. a God of goodness. He declared. "He has given me all the kingdoms of the earth," and that God had with authority laid upon him the charge of building him a house at Jerusalem. I <b) Generous Permission to Israel | (v. 8). All who desired to go up to : Jerusalem and build the Lord's house | were permitted to go. He oven manded the blessing of the Lord to l upon them. (c) A Positive Co-Operation (v. -I None were obliged to go up. but a p" itlve obligation was laid upon tho>, who did not go up to render assistance to those who did. They were to aid In the building of the house of God by giving money, beasts and goods. It was more than a free-will offering, an obligation in addition thereto. The obligation wag even wider than the people of Israel. The heather were asked to render aid. II. Response to the Proclamation of . Cyrus (w. 5, 0). (1) By Israel (v. 5). Strange to sav the decree of Cyrus wns not met with 0*'aS t nntkoelnsm .. I latent. cumusiuMu. wuiv si miijui ber, chiefly from Jndah and Benjamin returned (v. 8). For most of tln-.n meant giving tip business Interests, f.,; they had settled down to the regular callings of life. Besides the sacrifice of business Interests it involved great risks as to the future. The entire company, including servants, was about fifty thousand (2:64). Of this [company we note the following divisions; first, chiefs of the fathers of , .Tudah and Benjamin, that Is magistrates; second, priests and Levltes, leaders In religion; third, skillful artificers. head workmen. (2) By Their Neighbors (v. 6). This response was apparently more hearty than that of the Jews themselves. Their neighbors gave freely of gold, sliver, beasts and goods. God had not only graciously disposed the heart of Cyrus toward his people, but they found peculiar favor from their neighbors, so that their wants were abundantly supplied. III. Restoration of the Sacred Vessels (w. 7-11). These vessels had been carried away to Babylon many years before. Little did Nebuchadnezzar realise that he would pnt into safe keeping the vessels which would be needed at this time. They were carefully num? . be red and turned over to the proper officers. Except for their desecration In Belshazzar's feast, they were nono the worst for having been carried away. These were brought up to Jerusalem from Babylon. Poverty. Poverty Is only contemptible when I t It 1* felt to be so. Doubtless the best way to make our poverty respectable is to seem never to feel It as nn evil.? Bovee. E-f;.: ' Love's 8eeret.

Woolworth Corporation will open Its 1001st store In the Deveny building recalls the humble beginning of Mr. Woolworth. Thirty-five or forty years ago he launched a business that bas grown to such magnitude in an unpretentious two story brick building, opposite the Pcnnsy station.in Lancaster. Pa. There Mr. Woolworth began behind the counter. His ideas were unique and the American people took to the five and ten cent store plan very rapidly. Hardly a town of 10,000 in this country but can boast or one or more, which goes to show their popularity and has established the fact that we cannot do without them. From the broken lines of pottery, queensware and other articles the five and ten cent store developed into a store of as many as twenty-five ana more departments. The five and ten cent store is a pop><iar institution, but other merchants usually find it a hard proposition to buck up against. Getting back to Mr. Woolworth It might be stated that he has always appreciated the fact that he got hiB start in Lancaster. Pa., and has there ertected?The Woolworth Building? i he tallest office Duilding in that city, which compares favorably with the Watson building in our own city, as a monument to his successful efforts there. Aside from that he gives liberally to many of the financial campaigns which were put on in that place for Y. M (' A., hospitals and other worthy causes. As a monument to the busi .world he has erected the tallest mowing in .Nov- v in; pity. Autumn's sulemn form is being notired day by day as the IeaveB keep iropping from the trees and the time lias arrived when the "frost is on the pumpkin and the corn is in the shock."
