We were each armed with a rifle and bayonet and three Mills bombs to be ussd for defense only. I bad my ear to the ground. All of a sudden I heard faint, dull thuds. In a low but excited voice I whispered to Wheeler, "I think they are mining, listen."

LESSON TEXT —Mark 10:32-51 GOLDEN TEXT-He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the Cross.—Phlllpplans 2:8. DEVOTIONAL READING!—Isaiah 42:1- ADDITIONAL MATERIAL. FOR SEACHERS-Matthew II. The Ambitious Request of James and John (vv. 85-45). 1. The request (vv. 35-37). It was for a place of prominence In the kingdom. According to Matthew, their mother was the Intercessor. Uany mothers have been used by chil dren to carry out that 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 and for getting the nearness to Christ. Z. Jesus' reply (vv. 38-45). (1) To Peter snd John (vv. 88-40). He speaks directly to the men, de claring that they know not what they ask. The Lord many times has to re prove and rebuke us for our blind re quests. He shbwed them that the way to this position of glory was through suffering. The cup which they were to drink waa all that was embraced In tha agooy on the cross. He concedes that the positions which they craved were obtainable, but In a very differ ent Way from what they apprehended. The way to places In glory In the Kingdom of Christ Is through the path of lowly, self-forgetful service. (2) to the ten (vv. 41-45). The ten were displeased with Peter and John, but doubtless they were not free from the same selfish ambitions. Christ showed them that to give Is greater than to receive that to serve is greater than to be served. The standard of his kingdom Is to forget self and serve others, even to give one's life. Christ is the supreme ex ample to be Imitated by all who would follow Mm, III.

Blind Bartlmaeus receives his slftt. 1, Bartlmaeus' request (vv. 40, 47). He cried to Jesus for mercy. The fact that he addressed bim us the'Son of David, shows that he recognised his Itessrqhshlp. though he was bllnd« bis faith enabled him to take hold ot Jtsna.

Jesus Foretells His Passion and Resurrection (w. 82-84). Tliis Is the third time he makes this prediction. The circumstances are most tragic. 1. Jesus going to Jerusalem tv. 82). He was going with the full conscious ness of the awful tragedy of the cross before him—the treachery of Judas, the flery persecutions of the priests and scribes—the unjust judgment. 2. The disciples following after (v. 82). They were In dread bewilderment His utterances and demeanor filled their minds with perplexity, and their hesrts with awe. In this state of con fusion, Jesus called them to him and patiently Instructed them. a "What needs should happen unto him" (vv. 33. 84). (1) "Delivered unto chief priests and scribes." (2) They shall condemn him to death, and deliver him to the Gen tiles." (3) "They shall mode, scourge, spit upon, and kill him." (4) "The third day he shall rise again."
