Boaz watched Ruth as she gathered handfuls of grain. He told his men to let some grain fall, just for her. He asked her to eat with the reapers at mealtime and to drink from their sup­ ply of water when she was thirsty. One reason that Boaz was kind to Ruth was that Ruth had been so good/to Naomi. But there is Some One who is even more kind than Boaz ever could* be. Our Memory Verse says, “The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.” The Lord Jesus loves us when we can­ not do anything good at all—loves us enough to die for us. Ruth thanked Boaz for his goodness to her. Let us be like her, and thank the heavenly Father for His great kindness to us. Object Lesson How t o B e H o l y OBJECTS: A capital “ I” and a capi­ tal “U” made of white paper. (The “ U” is 11 inches wide and 8% inches high. The side and bottom bars are 1 inch wide, and the corners at the base are square rather than curved.' Fold the right side in 1 inch from the outside, which w ill be just inside the upright bar. Fold again 2■% inches farther—measuring from the outside folded edge—which w ill bring' the up­ right to the center. Follow the same procedure with the left side. .Thi& should bring the two side bars to over­ lap at the center, giving the appear­ ance of a capital “T ” upside down. Fold the stem of the “T” toward you, 614 inches from the free ends of the original “U.” This will make a cross. The •“ I” should be 13% inches, high, the stem 1 inch wide, and the top and Numbers 10:11 And it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second month, in the second year, that the cloud was taken up from off the tabernacle of the testimony. 12 And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran. 10:29 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in- law, We are Journeying unto the place of which the Lord said, I will give it you: come thou with us, and we will do thee good: for the Lord hath spoken good concerning Israel. 30 And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred. 31 And he said, Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest how we are to encamp in3the wilderness, and thou mayest be to us instead of eyes. 32 And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what goodness the Lord shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee. 33 And they departed from the mount of the Lord three days’ journey: and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them in the three days’ journey, to search out a resting place for them. 34 And the cloud of the Lord was upon them by day, when they went out of the camp. 35 And It came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up> Lord, and let thine enemfrs be scattered; and let them that Irate thee flee before thee. 36 And when it rested, he said, Return, O Lord, unto the many thousands of Israel.

bottom bars 4 inches wide and 1 inch high. Fold down 2% inches from the top. Make another fold 4-11/16 inches from the bottom. Thus the two bars will come together, making a cross. Unfold both letters before the lesson begins. Color the front of each black.) LESSON: I brought a “U” and an “ I” with me this morning in order that they might represent us. Did you know that the Bible commands us to be holy? “ Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy; for I the LORD your God am holy” (Lev. 19:2). This black “U” and “ I” look sinful instead of holy, but when God gives a command, there is always a way pro­ vided in order that the command may be obeyed. In ourselves we could never be holy, but in Christ we can. As I fold these letters, you see that they both make a cross. As such ¡they fit each other per­ fectly. If we desire to be holy in the sight of God, we should humble ourselves, accept Christ as our personal Saviour, and then, when God looks at us He w ill not see our old sinful selves. He w ill see His Son, Jesus Christ. LE$SON TEX T : Num. 10:11, 12, 29-36. GOLDEN TEX T: “ Còme thou with us, and we will do thee good” (Num. 10:29). DEVOTIONAL READING: Psa. 122.

On the twentieth day of that sec­ ond year, the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle, and Israel there-, fore started forward, following the cloud from Sinai to Paran. By the cloud, the Lord would guide them daily until they came to the promised land. There was a definite time and direction for them to travel, and the cloud controlled both these matters. They were wholly dependent upon the cloud, not even’Moses know­ ing when or how to move, apart from
