PADDY'S POND
1 X 7HKN Honker the Goose dropped
W into the pond of Paddy the Beav-
er deep tn the Green Forest on Ms
way to the Sunny Southland other
eyes than those of Peter Rabbit saw
him. That clear "Honk, honk, k'honk,
honk," with which he had shouted to
tiie worid beiow the message that Jack
Most and Rough Brother North Wtnd
were coming had been heard by many
ears !t had reached way in to the
den of Old Man Coyote up in the Oid
Pasture and he had hastily thrust his
head out to took up in the shy. He
had seen Honker turn and iead his
followers down, down, and finaiiy dis-
appear in the Green Forest.
Old Man Coyote had iicked his chops
hnngriiy and grinned as he watched.
"They are tired and are going to
spend the night in the pond of i'addy
the Beaver," thought tie. Then he
yawned and went back to finish his
nap and dream pieasant dreams of a
fat goose for dinner. You Me he
knew that it wouid be of no use to go
over to Paddy's pond untii after Honk-
er and his foiiowers had had time to
go tf sleep.
Reddy and Granny Fox had heard
that message from the sky and they,
too, had seen Honker iead the way
down into the Green Forest and had
guessed just where he had gone. Red-
dy was for going over there at once,
but wise oid Granny knew better than
to do that.
"Ton think yon know it aii," she
Mid aharpiy, "but you've got a iot to

team yet, Reddy Fox. It isn't every
day that we have a chance to get a
goose for dinner, and if it were ieft
to you we wouidn't have any chance
at aii. Honker isn't iike those fooi-
ish geese in Farmer Brown's yard.
Oh, my no! You've got to have aii
your wits about you when you try to
catch Honker. In fact, i don't expect
that we are going to catch Honker at
ail, smart as we are. But I do think
we may catch one of the youngsters of
whom he is the ieader, and that wiii
he much better. Honker is oid and
tough. Perhaps we can catch two.
But whatever you do, Reddy Fox, don't
go near the pond of Paddy the Beaver
nntiilteii you it is time. Honker
mustn't even suspect that we know
that he has come."
iteddy promised to do just as oid
Granny Fox said, aithough he was so
impatient that he just had to go down
on the Green Meadows and hunt for
Jhinny Meadow Mouse so as to keep
from titinking of Honker the Goose
and his foiiowers. So it was that
Honker and the other geese, of whom
he was the ieader, went to sleep with-
out hearing or seeing a single thing
to make thim anxious or suspicious.
And *o !t was that in the stili smnii
hours of the night when those who
sieep at night are usually deepest in
dreamiand stealthy feet trotted softly
through the Green Forest toward the
pond of Paddy the Beaver.

[.Barnabas and Sau) Return from
Jerusalem (12:25).
The Christlaus at Jerusalem were
In need because of a famine which had
come upon the worid. When news of
this reached the believers at Antioch,
they were moved with sympathy for
them, and reiiff was sent at the hand
of Barnabas and Saul. On their re-
turn from this ministry, they were ac-
companied by John Mark.
ii. Gifts of the Church at Antioch
(v.J).
Young as was this new reiigious
center, it had prophets and teachers.
Such are essentinito right church iife.
in Ephesians4:8-12 Is enumerated the
gifts which when Christ ascended on
high he gave to men for the perfect-
ing of the saints unto the work of
the ministry. Gifts in the Church are
not for the Church itseif, bat to enable
it to perform service for others.
iii. Barnabas and Saul Sent Forth
(vv. 2, 8).
This marks the beginning of foreign
missions as the deliberately planned
enterprise of the Church.
1. The occasion (v. 2). While the
Hve prophets and teachers were fast-
ing and praying, the Hoiy Spirit com-
manded them to send forth Barnabas
and Saul. The work of evangeiizing
the world was laid so heaviiy upon
these men that they refrained from
eating In order to seek the wiii of
God in prayer. This is the kind of
fasting that has God's approval. The
missionary enterprise is the index to
the spirituality of a church. The emp-
tiness of missionary treasuries and
the falling off of missionary candi-
dates reveal the unspirituality of the
homebase.
2. The divine command (v. 2). The
Holy Ghost said, "Separate me Barna-
bas and Sanl." The real call to Christ-
ian service comes from the Hoiy Spir-
it. The Spirit called, the Church re-
sponded by sending out those calied
by him. Spirit-Hiied Christians know
the voice of the Hoiy Spirit. The Spir-
it cailed, and the best men which the
Church at Antioch had were sent out.
8. The obedience (v. 8). After fast-
ing and prayer, Barnabas and Saul
were sent out. The men were ready
to go.
4. Instant obedience was rendered.
Those who have received the Spirit's
cail are not taken by surprise when
they are commissioned by the Church.
There shouid be no hoiding back on
the part of the Church, nor of the
workers when the Spirit caiis. By the
workers when the Spirit calls.
IV. Preaching the Word of God in
Cyprus(vv. 4, 0).
We are not told as to why they
first went to Cyprus, but we are ieft
to infer that It was owing to the /act
that Cyprus was the home of Barna-
bas. He was acquainted with the
country and the people and could be
thus assured of a respectabie hear-
ing among them. Besides, it was most
naturai that those who had heard the
good news go Brst with it to their
kindred and friends. Andrew Qrst
went to his brother, and the man out
of whom the demons were cast was
denied the pleasure of following Jesus
in order that he might go and tell
his kindred. As they went forth they
carefully carried out their commis-
sion, for they preached the Word of
God. Those who are faithful to God
wiii preach nothing but his Word.
The great need today is Spirit-called
and Spirit-filled men preaching God's
Word.
V. Withstood by Eiymas, the Sorcer-
er(vv. 6-12).
Sergius Pauius, the deputy, invited
Barnabas and Saui to teli him of
God'a Word. Eiymas mailciously
sought to turn his mind from tiie
faitii. He sought to bar the gospel
as it entered upon its mission of
converting the heathen. Paul came
to the front and denounced Eiymas in
the most scathing terms. He calied
ltim the child of tite Devil, denounc-
ing him as fuil of guiie and villainy,
pronouncing him the enemy of aii
righteousness, and accusing him of
perverting the right ways of the Lord.
Surety a man is never more a viilaln
than when he tries to turn a soul from
God.
God Doe. Not Forsake Thee
Suppose that ail men forsake or for-
get thee; God does not. His eye sees
thee, his heart feets for thee, and his
hand is abie to detivcr thee. Thou
art not friendiess, nor wilt thou he

Charles H. Spurgeon.
!t is the resurrection life that is the
ruest as weii as the highest form of
life; the surest as weii as the most
glorious immortality; it admits of no
reversai and no decay.—-H. Bonar.
