nPHIS year marks the 100th anni-
yers^ry of what (Is probably the
most famous bath In history. The
interesting thing is that the bath
was never taken, that Adam Thomp-
son Was the man who didn't take it
and that he -didn't take that famous
bath "In Cincinnati, Ohio, - back ih
December, 1842, even though you can
And plenty of prin?ed ^'autherttiesi-
which solemnly assert that he did.
Here's how it all came about:-
Sack'In December, 1917, when

about VYortd'.War
fl, H. L. Menck-
en,-later famous
as thje editor of
the American
Mercury, wrote a
story which pur-
ported to be the
history of the first
.bathtub in Amer-
ica. "My motive
was sirhply to
have some harm-
t less" fun in war
clays,-' says Mr. Mencken,
er occurred to me that it would be
taken seriously'' because it was
packed full of absurdities." But ap-
parently he didn't realize how gul-
lible the public was-—
story, which first appeared in
th^Jftew York- Evening Mail of De-
iiember 28, 1917,'Seated, that the first
:meri.can bathtub! was displayed by
one -Adjam .Thompson,. "a wealthy
cotton and'grain.dealer," to a group
sof his admiring friends in Cincin-
nati on December 10, 1842. It was
at "a~parly "lor rn?n~Only,,_and" ali
of'the guests took baths in the new
contraption. v
That party, according to Menck-
en, had an unexpected -aftermath.
The bathtutrwas denounced by phy-
sicians as a menace to public health
and the Boston city fathers ""passed
an ordinance prohibiting its use ex-
cept upon medical advice. In Vir-
ginia a $30 tax. was imposed upon
the installation of each bathtub and
Hartford, Conn., Wilmington, Del.,
and Providence, R. I., all charged
extra rates for water in which tc
bathe in bathtubs.
The Philadelphia city council, he f-
solemnly averred, tried to~pass an
ordinance prohib-
iting the use of
bathtubs between
November and,
May but the
measure was de-
feated by two
votes. However,
adverse legisla-
tion couldn't stop
the use of the
Vnew . jpven tl on "
and during Mil-
lard Fillmore's
administration as
President he; had a bathtub in-
stalled in the White House and thus
became the, first Chief Executive
to take a bath there.
Such were the "facts" which the
public accepted in all. seriousness.

tory of his hoax, he said:
"Pretty, soon I began to encoun-
ter my . preposterous 'facts' in the
Writings.'Of other men. They began
to be used by chiropractors and Oth-
er such quacks as evidence of the
stupidity of medical men. They be-
gan to be cited" by medical men as
proof of "Uine 'progress of public hy-
giene. They got into learned jour-
nals. Thfey were alluded to .on the
floor of congress. They crossed the
ocean, and-"-were discussed solemnly
in England and on thp Crmtinent,
Finally, I began to find them ,in
standard works of reference."
In one of his books Mencken tells
how' the story was reprinted in the
Boston Herald with. a four-column
head and a' two-column c-artoen ia-
beled satirically "The American
Public Will Swallow Anything."' Says
Mencken: "And then, three weeks
later, ifl the same editorial section,
but promoted to page one, the same
Herald "f'eprinted my 1-year-old

I. Appointed to Serve Christ- <w.
12-4.9J- - , .
It is the etrfistaiit teaching pf
Scripture that those called to serve
God are not self-appointed. They
are:
1. Chosen by Him (w. 12, 13). He.,
chooses whom He will, givefs them
the gifts and the grace for ministry
(and both are Important!.), and pr<>
tvides them a place, of service. It is
ital to the servant of Christ that
he know that he has been chosen
and called of the Lord. Only with
that assurance can- he .meet the
problems and bear the burdens of
the work.
• Observe that It was after a night
of -prayer that-'Jeaus appointcd-the
twelve. How many churches give
that much prayer to the choosing
of its leaders? Do we not need il
far more than did our Lord?
2. Called fpom Many Walks ol
Life (wi 14-16). The apostles were
men of widely differing gifts, tem-
peraments, and personal character-
istics. Some had unusual ability,"
-bthers apparently Vere of ordinary
qualifications. They were of many
occupations, fishermen, a tax gath-
erer, etc.; but not one was. by. pto-
fession a preacher ©r priest'"*
W§re men to choose for such^of-
fices they would look within the nar-
row limits'of a few learned profes-
sions. with certain nationalities pre-
ferred, and with position in life an
important factor. God cuts across
every. . man-made limitation and
calls His workers as He sees fit
3. Companions in Service (w. 17-
19). At nonce the Iwelye , received
their introduction to service to the
great multitude diseased*- demon
possessed, in spiritual-need. It was
Jesus who healed them (and notice
that "he healed them all," v. 19),
but verse 17 tells us that the newly
appointed-apostles .came and stood
"with Him. lliey had'fellowship with
the healing and serving Christ, just
as we may have it in service for
Him today. *
II. Prepared to Live for Christ
JW. .20-26).
Service for Christ is as much (per-
haps we should say, more) by life
a£ by ministry. The twelve needed
instruction that their spiritual per-
spective might be right He tells
them
1. How to Meet Difficulties (vv.
20-23). Poverty, hunger, weeping,
being hated for Christ's sake,—these
were the things that Jesus knew
His servants might cxpect. so He
prepared them. They were told that
these things need not disturb them,
for there is a kingdom coming:
there will be a. time when every
hunger will be satisfied, when weep-
ing shall turn to laughter.
Hatred for Christ's sake is de-
clared to be the occasion for an
outburst of joy because of the re-
ward which." awaits in heaven.
Scripture speaks much, of Rewards,
and we do well to' encourage our-
selves arl^ other Christians by the
bteSsied prospect ' i- -
Meeting difficulties is a matter
of Having mental and spiritual eyes
rightly focused. If w.e do. we can
see right through them and see that
on the..other side there is blessing.
But there are temptations, in an-
other direction, so He tells them
2. How to Avoid Dangers (vv. 24-
26). Jesus is here speaking of those
who, lacking, true spiritual vision,
revel in the satisfaction of worldly
things without a thought of God., The
passage, however,, may well be ap-
~ plied to the worker for Christ. Often
he "Will be tempted "to covet the
wealth, the prosperity, the pleas-
ures, and .popularity of th,ose roupd
abeuLhim.
