SAUL OF TARSUS: HOW A PHARI-
SEE BECAME A CHRISTIAN
LESSON TEXT—Acts 22:8-15.
GOLDEN TEXT—Yea doubtless, and
I count all things but loss for the ex-
cellency of the knowledge of Christ
Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suf-
fered the loss of all things, and do
count them but dung, that I may win
Christ.
PRIMARY TOPIC—An Enemy Who
Became a Friend.
JUNIOR TOPIC—An Enemy Who Be-
came a Friend.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP-
IC—What It Means to Be a Christian.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP-
IC—Conversion: Its Nature and Ef-
fect.
I. Saul’s Training as a Pharisee
(vv. 3, 4).
1. Taught to love his own nation.
(“I am a Jew.”) The Pharisees were
the nationalists of their day. Saul
being a strict Pharisee was a patriot.
2. Taught to love God’s Law.
"Taught according to the perfect man- i
ner of the law of the fathers." Love
for the Bible is a valuable asset in i
life. One may misinterpret the Bible j
and dangerously misapply it. but if
there is love for It. he may yet come
Into right relation to it.
3. "Was zealous toward God.” The
root meaning of the word “zealous' is
"to boil.” It signifies a passion for
God and his work.
4. Was conscientious (Acts 20:9,
10). Saul was conscientious in his
opposition to Jesus. He regarded
Jesus as an Imposter. While Saul is
to be condemned for his attitude
toward Jesus, he is to be praised for
responding to the dictates of his con-
science. Conscience is the law of life
for every man, but should be regu-
lated by God’s Word.
II. Saul’s Burning Hatred of Jesus
(vv. 4, 5, cf. Acts 9:1, 2).
He knew full well that unless the
movement set on foot by Jesus was
stopped It would supersede Judaism.
However, he was entirely Ignorant of
the genius of Christianity. He did not
know that “the blood of the martyrs
Is the seed of the church.” Stephen's
noble display of faith intensified Saul’s
hatred of Jesus. It made him more
determined than ever to stamp out the
*TpHK woman who makes her own
simpler frocks, has a happy
surprise awaiting her In the way
of suitable and fascinating materi-
als. We have in mind the new
crepe de chines which take on the
coloring and patterning of gay cre-
tonnes.
Cretonnes, because of their hand-
some colorings and striking de-
signs have always held a fascination
for most of us. Lacking, however,
the sheerness and suppleness of silk
and carrying with them the flavor of
mere drapery material, they did not
quite qualify as desirable media for
other than sports apparel.
There Is a real treat In store for
the seeker of "something different”
in the way of silks, in that certain
enterprising designers have eliminated
the "Ifs” concerning cretonne as a
suitable dress material. Tiiat is, by
"putting two and two together” or
rather adding the siikiness and sup-
pleness of crepe de chine to the col-
orfulness and designfulness of cre-
tonne, a happy union has been effect-
ed. And so It is that a charming
series of silk prints are this season
available which are just the thing for
gay little afternoon frocks.
Just to show you how attractively
these silken cretonne prints work up.
we are Illustrating our story with a
picture of a cunning model made of
a strictly new crepe de chine in point
of coloring and design. It features n
high waistline effect, with a shirred
girdle which ties at the back. The
bands which trim it are of blue taf-
feta silk.
Striking originality Is the keynote
of most all of the advance silk prints.
In many instances, modern art themes
form tiie basis of highly decorative
pntternings. Large cubes and coni-
cal shapes, zigzag lines and various
forms are worked Into masses of
shaded colors with thrilling effect.
Among outstanding types are silks
which adopt pen lines or etching de-
signs. Because of the fineness of
lines, the patterns take on an exquis-
ite delicacy which is a welcome
change from the more massive effects
of solid coloring.

TO CHENILLE DOTTED FABRICS
SWINGS FASHION’S PENDULUM
III. Saul Kicking Against the
Pricks (vv. G-ll).
The figure here is of an eastern ox
driver following the animal with a
sharp iron attached to a pole. The
ox is prodded along with this instru-
ment, and if it is refractory and kicks
against this iron, it only injures itself.
1. A light from heaven (v. 6). The
time had now come for Jesus to inter-
pose in behalf of his own. Saul is
stricken with blindness and falls to
the earth.
2. A voice from heaven (v. 7). This
was the voice of Jesus saying, "Why
persecutest thou me?” Jesus Christ Is
so closely identified with believers
that he regards treatment of them as
treatment of himself.
3. Saul’s inquiry (vv. 8. 10). "Who
art thou. Lord?” "What shall I do,
Lord?” The dictator is now willing
to he dictated to.
4. A second voice from heaven
(vv, 8, 10). In response to Saul’s in-
quiry, Jesus revealed himself, and In-
structed Saul what to do.
5. Saul entering Damascus (v. 11).
This hitherto savage persecutor went
humbly into the city, led by attendants.
What went on in his soul during three
days of blindness and fasting we can
only surmise.
IV. Ananias Ministers to Saul (vv.
12-15).
1. Sent by the Lord (Acts 0:10-12).
In a vision the Lord showed him that
Saul was now a praying man. The
name of Saul’s host and the number
of his street were made known to
Ananias.
2. Ananias’ hesitancy (Acts 9:13-
16). Knowing Saul’s violent hatred of
Jesus, he was afraid to go near him
until he received the divine message.
3. Ananias’ message (vv. 13-15).
(1) "Brother Saul, receive thy
sight.” (v. 13). Sight was given.
(2) "The God of our fathers hath
chosen thee” (v. 14).
This choice was for three things:
a. "That thou shouldest know his
will.” This Is true of every one chosen
by the Lord. b. "And see that Just
One.” The sight of Jesus Christ
transformed Saul’s life. c. "And hear
the voice of his mouth.” now won-
derful that even a savage persecutor
should come to hear the voice of
Jesus.
(3.) "Thot) shalt he his witness
unto all men of what thou hast seen
and heard” (v. 15).
Choice Is With God
Wretches that wo are! to be keep-
ing up jealousies of our Lord, when
we should he rejoicing In his love.
As If any man could cnoose Christ be-
fore Christ hath chosen him; or any
man were more willing to he hnppy
than Christ is to make him happy.—
Baxter.

flameth all things it toucheth.—Eras-

Cl \yf Y PARTY dress Is of tulle nil
1V1 dotted with chenille”—could
Miss Modern peep within the pages
of grandma’s diary which she kept In
her youthful days, she might find
these very words written in the pages
of the long ago—which would be the
more Interesting because the pendu-
lum of present-day fashion has swung
back to chenille dotted fabrics. Not
only tulle but materials of all sorts
with chenille dots are "in” again.
Seeing that la Parlsienne Is express-
ing a special fondness for black-and-
white effects, It is not surprising that
the gown pictured is right in line with
this vogue. The tiers on the skirt
stress that sprightly flare which Is
Indicative of the new trend. The
scarfing of the shoulder In billowy
tulle Is also expressive of that which
Is latest.
Speaking of color, among handsome
new fabrics for the coming season,
are many chiffons In street shades
with chenille dots In self-tones, the
dots grading from large at the sel-
vedge to small at the opposite side of
the wide border. A beige georgette,
for Instance, with matching chenille
dots, makes up effectively for after-
noon wear. Black chenille on a black
sheer background is especially hand-
some for dressy occasions as are the
various chenille-dotted fabrics in bur-
gundy or navy, or any of the new
blues from navy to marine, also green
In its many phases is a favorite.
Browsing around in vogulsh places
one discovers that chenille is playing
a fashionable role In more ways than
one. There’s shoulder flowers, for In-
stance, very chic ones are of chenille.
Like huge chrysanthemums are they,
their supple petals falling In graceful
lines. You can buy them in an exact
matching shade to your chiffon, vel-
vet or satin gown, and they are even
more popular for daytime than for
evening wear.
Chenille embroidery Is also lending
charm and a note of elaboration to
many a hat or gown or blouse. Mo-
dish millinery also features the che-
nille-crocheted hat. The beret, cro-
cheted or chenille is especially cited

Knew Enough to Make
Careful “Test” of Wire
News had been received by the in-
spector of the seaside tramway sys-
tem that an overhead wire had fall-
en In a crowded street.
The Inspector betook himself to
the spot.
When he arrived he found a crowd
of people handling the wire in a
most careless manner.
Going up to the nearest man he
shonted:
"You had no right to touch that
wire. If the current had been on,
you would have been killed outright
by the shock!”
The other looked at the inspector
with a knowing air.
"Ah,” said he, "I was mighty care-
ful! I felt it carefully before I took
hold of it!”—London Answers.
Too Much Is Plenty
A Judge gave an Oregon grocer
Who beat up a government Inspector
a chance fo defend himself. The
grocer said:
"I am guilty. I lost my head. All
the morning I held my temper while
government agents inspected my
scales, tasted my butter, smelled my
meat, graded my kerosene. In addi-
tion, your honor, I had just answered
three federal questionnaires. Then
this bird comes along and wants to
take moving pictures of my cheese.
It was more than I could stand—I
pasted him in the eye.”
The case was taken under advise-
ment.—Atchison Globe.
Costly Statue •
The Ivory and gold statue of Ath-
ena made by Phidias for the Par-
thenon at Athens was embellished
with nearly $1,000,000 worth of gold.
That Big Difference
The real problem for most young
married people is not how to "keep
up” In life, hut what to "keep up.”

Cuba Taking Part in
Move to Save Forests
The lnternntionnl spread of the
doctrine of forest preservation is ar-
restingly evidenced by the news that
Cuba has just begun the creation of
its first national park for the propa-
gation and protection of native trees.
The preserve Is to contain more than
04,812 acres of tropical land, a news
account has it. The province of Ori-
ente, at the southern tip of the is-
land, is to provide the reservation.
The land is crossed there by three
large rivers, the Mayari, the Levisa
and the Caenico, and the intermedi-
ary area is checkered with brooks
and small streams, wherein fish will
be stocked. Moreover, and rather
surprisingly, It Is stated that the dis-
trict also possesses extremely moun-
tainous regions, so that Cuban spon-
sors hope for their national park a
beauty rivaling that of the national
parks In the western and southeast-
ern regions of the United States.
The Idea of a tropical nation es-
tablishing a national park, or need-
ing the agency of preservation, is
distinctly novel. Perhaps the need Is
less dire than in cooler lands, and
the inspiration may be toward beau-
ty rather than utility. This does not
diminish the excellence of the plan,
but only serves to emphasize the
happy relationship In forestry proj-
ects between utility and beauty.
Most of the forestry work In the
United States at present stresses the
former objective, because it is for
the present paramount. Blit where
preserves have been defined the gran-
deur of the trees has made their
ornamentation a factor , more con-
spicuous than their value.—Atlanta
Journal.
Lesson for the Careless
On leaving a Kansas City store, a
salesman found this notice attached
to his windshield: "Thanks for the
grips. Don't like to steal, but am out
of work nnd must feed the kiddies.
An Honest Thief.” Feeling very
melancholy about the whole affair,
the salesman was about to make a
routine report to the police when the
proprietor of the store let him in on
the Joke and confessed to taking the
grips himself. "That will teach you
to close the windows of your car
when you leave It,” the proprietor
said in a reproving manner. And it
has done so.
Tan Painfully Acquired
Gail Potter, a parachute jumper,
discovered a new method of getting a
tan. He sailed away in a smoke bal-
loon at Kansas City, intending to de-
scend by parachute. At an altitude
of 2,000 feet he pulled the knife cord.
Nothing happened. He jerked again,
then discovered the cord was twisted
around the balloon ropes and there
wns nothing he could do but wait and
come down with the balloon. The
smoke cooled nnd seeped out of the
balloon ns the bag drifted. The bal-
loon settled down after 30 minutes

"English Spoken,” of Course
The tourist of a few years ago In
Paris from England or the United
States, desiring to make some pur-
chases, would be likely to be influ-
enced In his visits to the stores by
the signs seen at regular intervals
“English Spoken,” but these legends
have gradually disappeared for the
reason that every large store and
hotel and many of the smaller ones
have some one around who can con-
verse with English people. In fact,
one of the few signs of this charac-
ter to be seen at present, reads;
“English Spoken, of Course.”
