' a very important part In the de-
velopment of Christianity.
The new preaching was no safer
in Europe than in Asia. The new
preaching was endangering the
seif-interest of certain people in the
community and they stirred up the
multitude in such a way that Paul
and his companion Silas were
thrown into prison.
Here the jailer charged to guard
his prisoners with r-re put them
in the inner prison and made their
fen fast in the stocks.
Then came an earthquake.
The great upheaval occurred dur-
ing the night while Paul and Silas
were praying and singing hymns
unto God. The prisoners were
listening with an amazed interest
to these men who with their feet
fast in the stocks in an inner
in hymns and in prayer. Not more
in hwmns and in prayer. Not more
remarkable to them surely could
have been this earthquake which
shook the foundations of the prison-
house so that the doors were opened
I and bonds were loosed. The jailer
j was aroused out of his sleep. See-
ing the prison doors open and
hardly real zing wha* had happen-
ed. he was about to kill himself
when there came the voice of the
. prisoners who far from being con
cerned about escaping were as-
suring the jailer that he should do
himself no harm for all the pris-
oners were there.
What strange power was manifest
upon the non-Chrtstlan prisoner*
that they should not have taken
their opportunity to escape? At any
rate apparently instead of running
away they were gathered round
while the prison keeper crying for
a light sprang before Paul and
Silas and falling down before
them with trembling called. “41.1
what must I do to be saved?”
What did the Jailer mean by the
question? Whatever he may have
meant the question that he asked
became one that was large and
glorious in its answer.
Paul gave him the ringing reply.
•Believe on the Lord Jesus and
thou salt be saved and thy house."
He took his prisoners out of the
prison washed their stripes and
was baptized with his household
immediately.
It is one of the world’s great sen-
sational conversations as solid and
effectual as it was sensational It
stands forever associated with this
city where Paul began h:s» Euro-
pean ministry. It is !i#iked with the
great Epistle to the Philippians
which Paul wrote from Rome dur-
ing the period of his own later im-
prisonment.
It is an inspiration. The man
mho could sing and pray in the
darkness of the night And of the
inner prison with his feet fast in
the stocks surely had warrant for
his words concerning rejoicing In
the Lord.
Prayer Is associated always with
thanksgiving and it is through
prayer and thanksgiving that peace
comes to the souls of men. The
prayer that Paul makes for these
Phillppians is surely the prayer of
deepest benediction that man could
make for his fellow men. “The
peace of God which passeth all un-
derstanding shall guard your hearts
and your thoughts in Christ Jesus -

THE BEST COMEDY IN AMERICA
Copyrighted 1931 by The Collegiate World Publishing Co. (College Humor) Through Bell Syndicate.
HOW' TO PLAY
BACKD AGGER
This game has been called
"shoving-up-the-daisies” but it
is not to be contused with back*
dammit or backstagger. which
although similar to liackdagger
are entirely different. Backdag-
ger is our oldest indoor sport
and began with the birth of
man.
The game is best played in
your own back yard. If you
have a kettledrum in which to
boil any oboes who happen to
be curveting about the kitchen
and are trying to steal the cool-
ing schtrudel off the Louis Cinq
(or maybe Louis Sick—he was
Sept the last time we played
bridge together). When these
are parboiled take a pair of
noodles and throw them away.
Yfis sir no noodles is good
noodles. Flavor according to
taste but don’t taste it if you
have a trench-coat in your
mouth. Personally I prefer a
dash of paprika—a short dash
—about sixty meters. (By the
way did you pay vour electric
bill last month? Gas me an-
other big boy. I’m on my way
to the chair—dentist's chair—
tee-hee-th.)
Into this steaming delicacy
thrust a dozen aluminum dag-
gers guaranteed not to incite
dagorreah.
This game at first sight
might not sound very inviting.
But are you'the kind of person
who needs an invitation?
No!
A thousand times no!
Ten thousand times no!
which makes a table upon which
the concoction must be placed
in one motion. Two motions
disqualify. After this is done
make a bee-line to the nearest
beer spigot. If there are no
bee-line*; arotmd make a bread-
line and hang your un mention-
allies on it. Now vou are
stripped for action. Tsk! tsk!
What? Yon say the game be-
gins to sound familiar. Well
wHl! Kindly remit name ami
address. The winner is deter-
mined through trial by ordeal
—ordeal ’em yourself if you
think I’d cheat on you.
New Yorkers and Calrforn-
ians are said to he the most

cans. They should be—they
can't get any further away from
