cussion of the lesson followed, this
being a “Temperance” lesson. The
Sunday school continues to grow nu-
merically, spiritually and financially.
Mrs. Saunders, the evangelist, closed
out a 6-day meeting which was very
successful from several angles. Six
were added to the church, all being
adults and one for baptism. The
Evangelist is a powerful speaker and
a convincing reasoner with a person-
ality unsurpassed. The evangelist
agreed to give us a return engage-
ment when oportunity presents it-
self being highly elated over the
courtesy shown her during her short
stay. The A. C. E. League was large-
ly attended. A debate on next Sun-

Sunday school opened at 9:30 by
Supt. Dean. A great number were
present in spite of the rainy weather.

Lesson
(By REV. W. A. JOSHUA, Pastor Greater
Jordan Grove Baptist Church, Houston, Texas
Instructor In B. Y. P. U. Work la State 8. 9
and B. Y. P. U. Congress of the General
Baptist State Convention of Texas)
LESSON XIII, MARCH 26, 1933
REVIEW: Jesus Our Example in
Service.
MOTTO TEXT: "Jesus of Nazareth
went about doing good."—Acts 10:38.
INTRODUCTION-
The lessons of this quarter are the
acts, teachings and examples of Jesus
Christ according to the testimony of
Mark, whose purpose is to prove that
Christ was the Son of God with pow-
er. As we have followed the story,
we cannot but be convinced that
Mark’s point is well taken.
SUMMARY OF THE LESSONS
Lesson I—John Prepares the Way
for Jesus.—Mark 1:1-11.
John, the baptizer clearly points
Jesus as the promised Messiah, and
prepares the world for His reception,
and also prepares Him for His work.
Lesson II—Jesus Begins His Work.
—Mark 1:12-20.
Jesus begins His work by preach-
ing repentance and accessibility of the
kingdom of heaven. In this lesson
four disciples are called.
Lesson III—Jesus at Work.—Mark
a drunken individual by Solomon, and
the picture of a drunken tribe by
Isaiah, and the picture of a drunken
kingdom by Daniel. The destruction
of drink is conclusive, and so clearly
are the points of the argument set
forth and proven that no array of ar-
gument can break through thia line
o ftestimony.
GLEANINGS-
In these lessons Jesus displays
everywhere the servant character.
The key verse of these lessons is
Mark 10:45: “The Son of Man came
not to be ministered unto, but to min-
ister and give His life a ransom for
many.” The word minister means
servant.
The outstanding word of these les-
sons is “straightway;” this is a serv-
ant word. Christ was the chief of all
servants.
No genealogy is given, because it
was not customary to give the geneal-
ogy of servants.
This lowly servant emptied Him-
self of the form of God, and waa
found in fashion as a man, that He
might be a servant of men.
He calls Himself the Son of Man.
and who can be a real, honest and
honorable servant aside from a son.
A servant-son’s service is not affect-
ed by salary, because all the fathers
goods are his, but a servant-son is
found serving because of love for the
father, and so it was with Christ.
CHARLTON-POLLARD P.-T. A.
The Charlton-Pollard P.-T. A. was
called to order at 3:30 by president,
Mrs. Bobbie Charlton. After invoca-
tion, the president stated that we
1:21-35.
We find Jesus in this lesson teach-
ing, healing and casting out unclean
spirits. The witnesses were astonish-
ed and lasting impressions were made
upon them. At the close of the les-
’ son we find Jesus in solitary prayer.
Lesson IV—Jesus Forgiving Sin.”
—Mark 2:1-12.

ANTIOCH BAPTIST CHURCH
The soul savng meeting at Anti-
och, conducted by Rev. S. R. Prince,
Fort Worth, has closed, but not with-
out its far-reaching spiritual effect.
There were 45 additions to Antioch.
Sister Florida Espress joined while
she was visiting in the city. The
clerical committee gave her a letter
of dismissal to connect with Bethel
Baptist Church, Houston. Brother
Lonnie Phillips also accepted Christ
and expressed a desire to become a
member of Allen Chapel Methodist
Church, Beaumont.
Sunday morning, the pastor, Rev.
W. S. Brent expressed thanks to the
many friends, members and pastors of
other churches and Antioch for their
loyal support of the meeting. He said
the Sunday school had done its whole
duty in that it had contributed great-
ly to the meeting. Baptistm began
Friday night and continued through
Sunday. Twenty were baptized Sun-
day morning at 11 o’clock, including
10 men and the rest being women and

would be entertained for ten minutes
by the C.-P. Choral Club. Under the
direction of Mrs. Limbrick, ten min-
utes of high class, enjoyable enter-
tainment was rendered by this group
of singers, the continuous applause
being an expression of appreciation
from the parents and teachers. This
demonstration lent much encourage-
ment to these young people. After
some comments on the program the
report of the special committee on in-
vestigating the opening of the dental
clinic was called for and through the
chairman, Prof. Pierson, reported that
the dentist gave a price for the en-
suing two months of school that met
the approval of the P.-T. A. After
some deliberation a committee was
appointed to arrange ways and means
to finance it immediately. Prof. Charl-
ton, the principal, held a conference
with the committee and reported in
the meeting that T. J. Charlton, F.
R. Wilson and Aaron Jefferson would
underwrite the project; that the clinic
could be opened at once, which

SCHOOL NEWS
ADAMS SCHOOL NEWS
Mrs. Estella Scott-Wykoff was the
leader in our faculty meeting Mon-
day, March 13, “Supervision of In-
struction in Spelling” was the sub.
ject. She discussed the aims and
methods in the teaching of spelling
and gave some procedures for diag-
nosing the individual teaching of
spelling. The basis of the discussion
was taken from “Supervision in
Elementary Schools,” by Clarence
Stone, but quite a few references on
the teaching of spelling were given.
An interesting contribution from An-
gelo Patri was read.
The pupils and teachers were griev-
ed to learn of the death of Johnnie
Mae Miller, a pupil of the low third
grade. She was a loyal, lively and
lovable pupil and her presence will
be missed by both pupils and teach-
ers.
Quite a few of the teachers and
pupils heard the Wiley Singers in a
concert at the St. James M. E. Church
Friday, March 17.
Attorney J. Alston Atkins visited
our school this week.
Miss Thelma Durden, a second
grade teacher, has been absent from
school a week because of illness.
Jesus is here in contact with the
palsied man whom He forgave of his
sins and cured. Criticizing objections
were raised by the Pharasees to Jesus
claiming to forgive sins; but Jesus
met this objection by declaring that
the Son of Man had power on earth
to forgive sins.
Lesson V—Jesus and the Sabbath.
—Mark 2:23, 3:6.
The plucking of corn on the Sab-
bath day and the healing of a wither-
ed hand also on the Sabbth day caused
the Pharasees to question the right
of the Christ to break the law con-
cerning the Sabbath. Jesus here in-
forms them that He, the Son of Man
is Lord of the Sabbath (Master of the
Sabbath).
Lesson VI—Jesus Chooses the
Twelve.—Mark 3:7-19.
Jesus selected helpers, and in this
prepared for greater service in meet,
ing the needs of the people. His
kingdom was a growing kingdom and
therefore would require more effort
in the days to come. So Jesus pre-
pares for the growing need of hu-
manity by training twelve men for
this task.
Lesson VII—Jesus Teaching by
Parables.—Mark 4:1-10, 13-20.
This lesson presents four kinds of
sowing, representing four kinds of
hearers. This was the thrust with
which He met the objectors and re-
jectors of His words and works;
teaching them that they should be the
good ground hearers of His work and
witnesses of His work.
Lesson VIII—Jesus Teaching by
Parables.—Mark 4:21-34.
Three parables here set forth three
features of Christ’s kingdom; namely
the silence, secrecy and greatness of
its growth. We are also here taught
that spiritual growth does not depend
upon man, but upon God.
Lesson IX—Jesus Shows His Pow-
er.—Mark 4:35, 5:8, 18:20.
Jesus had established Himself as
the Master of demons and disease,
but men knew not of His power to
manage the greater forces of nature.
Hence they were astonished that He
calmed the sea during a storm, said:
“What manner of man is this, even
the winds and sea obey Him?”
Lesson X—Jesus Giving Life and
Health.—Mark 5:2, 1:24, 35-43.
The presence of the Christ meant
life and health to the daughter of
Jairus, whom He raised from the dead
not in the presence of the multitude
but in the presence of a faithful few.
Great blessing come to those who are
are great in faith.
Lesson XI—Jesus Ministering to
the Multitudes.—Mark 6:30-44.
The feeding of the five thousand
is an event in the life of Christ that
is ladened with many great truths.
Christ inspired faith in Himself, fed
the famished crowd, tested the faith
of His disciples, and showed His com-
passion or humanity all at the same
time.
Lesson XII—The Effects of Alco-
holic Drinks.—Prov. 23:29-32; Is.
28:1-4; Daniel 5:1-4.
This lesson presents the picture of
PENNY SAVING MAIN DISHES
Don’t joke about hamburg steak.
When properly prepared and garnish-
ed, it is delicious as well as economi-
cal. The seansoning is very import-
ant. A dash of sugar not only ripens
and mellows the flavor, but imparts a
wonderful zest and savor by acting
as a blending agent for the other sea-
sonings.
HAMBURG ON TOAST
Mix one pound of hamburg with
one teaspoonful each of sugar and
salt, * teaspoonful of pepper and
make into flat, loosely mixed cakes,
or leave in the bulk. Cut rounds of
bread 2 to 3 inches in diameter and
toast on one side only, spread the
ground, seasoned beef on the other
side and broil five minutes. Drop •
bit of butter on each hamburg and
serve tastefully garnished with sliced
tomato or parsley.

taste. Make up into flat cakes one
inch thick, twist a thin slice of bacon
around the cakes and broil or pan-
broil fifteen to twenty minutes.
Prairie View Notes
PRAIRIE VIEW.—Under the di-
rection of Principal W. R. Banks, an
advanced schedule of the summer
school for Prairie View State Normal
and Industrial College is under consid-
eration by the faculty. For the con-
venience of teachers and prospective
teachers the summer school will be di-
vided into two terms. Dr. Edward
Bertram Evans, director of the sum-
mer school, releases information that
the first term of the summer school
will begin June the 5th.
In speaking of the expenses of the
summer school, Dr. Evans said:
“There will be a reduction in the
maintenance and matriculation fees
which may be paid at the beginning
of each term rather than the entire
amount for both terms at the open-
ing of the session.”
HOUSTONIANS UNINJURED BY
EARTHQUAKE IN CALIFORNIA
Dr. and Mrs. Chas. Jackson, form-

California, were not injured by the
earthquake which swept Southern
California and did much damage right
in the vicinity of their home, it waa
revealed in a letter to Dr. and Mrs.
Stone from the' Jacksons last week.
The letter is dated midnight Fri-
day (March 10) and states that from
5:55p. m. to the time of writing the
letter the earthquake was very severe
at intervals. Long Beach, which is
just 18 miles away bore most of the
damage.
A post script on the letter dated 9
o’clock next morning stated that all
was still 0. K., although several
shocks had been felt since the letter
was written and that the family spent
a sleepless night with their clothes on.
