ter. When we see Jesus as He really is, we will want to go to tell others about Him. Our memory verse was one of His last commandments, to us! Shall we say it? The gospel is God’s “ good news.” Some day Jesus is com ing back., again, and while we are waiting for Him He wants us to be busy telling others about Him. Will you tell some one the “good news” this week?
God. ;[Cause the other 3 drills to be held by the magnet.]. At the foot of the mountain we see one drill trying to lift one ..of these extra ones without success. Christ, knowing that there was a need in the valley, went down! It- is easy for the large* drill, representing Him, to lift the other. Later in life, Peter, James, and John were used to help others after being with Christ on the mountain. [Show how these drills have been magnet ized.] We, too, need to be alone- with Christ in order that we may be help ful to others.

Object Lesson A H blpful H ike
OBJECTS: A large strong magnet, a shoe box, 2 dry-cell batteries, a flashlight bulb, 6 small steel drills ‘of various sizes, 2 feet of fine electric wire, and a piece of green paper. (Cut the paper in the shape of a high mountain and crumple to give a rugged appearance. Turn the box on end and paste the green paper on what was originally the bottom of the box. Fasten the magnet td the top end of the box. Cut two holes through the cardboard, allowing the prongs of the magnet to touch the green paper. Make a-small hole through the green paper and cardboard just above the prongs of the magnet in which to place the light bulb. Solder a piece of the fine wire to the screw contact of the light bulb. Solder a piece of fine Wire to the screw contact of the bulb and another to the core contact. Run each to opposite terminals of the batteries, which are concealed in the lower part of the box. Cut.one of these wires and put the ends through the box and paper between but not touch ing the prongs of the magnet. Extend the wires about % oT an inch through the green paper in order that a good contact will be made with the drill.) LESSON: Did you ever take a hike to a high mountain? Those who never have, have missed something. Peter, James, and John went with Christ ,tup a mountain on a certain occasion. We will let these four drills remind us of the Lord Jesus and the three who went with Him. The large bright drill represents Christ. It can lift, while the others cannot. [Pre viously magnetize by placing across magnet prongs.] ‘ Christ was transfigured" in'the pres ence of the disciples. His face and clothing shone with a bright light. [Aljow the large drill to contact the wires and the magnet.] Thè disciples saw the light and felt thè povvèr of
