flask-shaped bottle filled with vine gar, some rags, a narrow white rib bon, a white cardboard heart, a yel low piece of cárdboard cut in the shape of a book, a red cardboard cross, and several diamond-shaped piecés of paper of various colors. (The jewel boxes can be made from cardboard and decorated with col ored paper, or they can be purchased at a novelty store. String the black heart, cigarette, bottle, and rags' on the black ribbon, and place in one of the boxes. Let a little of the rib bon stick out from under the lid of the box. String the other objects on the white' ribbon in the order men tioned, leaving the diamond-shaped papers flying at "the end in the man ner of a kite tail. Put these in the other box, leaving some of the white ribbon sticking out.) LESSON: I brought a pair of twins with me this morning. They look ex actly alike, but they are far from be ing the same. Here they are—Bob and Bill Box. Can you notice any difference in them? - “They have different colors of rib- bdn sticking out under the lid.” You are correct. This is the only difference in their outward appear ance. When the Lord .Jesús was here on earth, He said that you could tell the condition of a person’s heart by the words which came out of the mouth. He said, “Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” By looking at the ribbons which come out of the “mouth” of these boxes, you can tell the color of the heart on the inside. See! Bob has a black heart, the same color as the ribbon When boys and girls have unclean words, it is because the heart is un clean. Look! A cigarette follows the black heart. It’s only an imitation ciga rette. Next is a bottle, representing whiskey. Rags follow the bottle, for the drunkard will come to rags. That I which comes out of Bill’s mouth is clean, and his heart is clean, too. Bill has the Word of God. Following this is a red cross, speak ing of the blood of Christ. The one who takes Christ as Saviour will have peace and happiness, just dfc Bill has this long string of beautiful papers following the cross. It is far better-to haye Christ with peace and happi ness than it is to have whiskey fol lowed by rags.

with angry thoughts. %He wanted to put all the people in prison who loved and trusted the Lord Jesus! He had not seen Jesus—just as we have not seen Him—but he- could . love Him, just as we do. But he didn’t The Lord Jesus wanted—oh, so very much—that Paul should l o v e and trust Him. This Is what happened. As angry Paul was trudging along the road, suddenly a bright light shone from heaven. Paul heard a voice calling him by n ame , and though nobody told him, he knew that the risen Lord Jesus was speak ing to him. He answered, ‘‘Who art thou, Lord?” Then the Voice answered some thing like this: “I am Jesus, the One the Christians 1o v e, the One who loves you, the One you are trying to hurt.” Paul understood. He had b e e n wrong in trying to hurt / the Chris tians. He knew that he should love,, the Lord Jesus with all his heart and be ready to s e r v e Hi m. These thoughts were in his mind for three whole days, because during that /time he was not able to see anything. Paul was ready to say “Yes” to anything. Jesus asked him to do. The Lord forgave all his bad deeds, and made him one of the greatest preach ers and missionaries who eves lived. Ever after that,. Paul was glad for the day when the Lord helped him to understand how much He loved him. Jesus wants us to understand His love for us, too, so that we, like Paul, may have truly ' happy days.
