their whole Bible told about Je&us and His coming. But some of them got the meaning all mixed up. Our les­ son tells how the Lord ' Jesus tried to help them to .understand. LESSON STORY: One day, the Lord Jesus and His friends went to God’s house to worship Him, as we do when we go to church. There were other people there, and all they did was find fault. When Jesus saw a poor man whose arm was so withered and drawn up that he could not use it, He healed him quickly, right there in church. The people were so angry be­ cause Jesus had done this in the Lord’s house and on the Lord’s day that they wanted to kill Him! They whispered among themselves that God’s Word says the Lord’s day must be kept holy, and that »people must not do needless work' on that day. They were right that the Bible does say that, but they should have known that it is right to do anything—any day—that will help some one love and trust the Lord Jesus. That is the mean­ ing of our Memory Verse. Object Lesson T he S abbath and the S aviour OBJECTS: A banana and a knife. (Prepare the banana by inserting a threaded needle under the skin a t„ one of the ridges and passing it be­ tween the skin and the core, bringing the needle put at the next ridge. Use a thread long enough so that the knotted end will be left projecting two or three -inches from the first hole. Insert the needle in the opening it made in coming out, and continue to the next ridge and around the banana in this manner, until the circle is complete and the starting place is reached. Then pull both ends of the thread which comes out of the same hole, and the core of the banana will be cut. Make this circle six times at regular intervals, and thus cut the banana into seven pieces without re­ moving the skin.) LESSON: I have never seen the in­ side of this banana, but I am sure that it is different from any you have ever seen. When God created the world, He divided each week into Seven days, just as if I should take a knife and cut the banana into seven pieces. (Place the knife near the banana in six places as if you intended to cut it, but do not let it touch the banana.) We shall peel the banana to see how it is different. Look! It falls into seven pieces! Remember that when God cre­ ated the world, He made each week seven..days long. He gave man six days in which to work, and He re­ served the seventh for rest and wor­ ship.

Busy on Sunday M ark 3:1-5 MEMORY VERSE: “It is lawful to do well on the Sabbath days” (Matt. 12: 12 ). AIM: To show that it is the Lord Jesus Himself, and not merely His day, that is to be honored. APPROACH: Two boys were talking together. One of them said, “It’s go­ ing to be easy now, to know which things I may do on Sunday.” “Why is it easy?” his friend asked. “My mother told me to ask myself every time, ‘Will this help me love the Lord Jesus a little more? Will it
