Texas Tuberculosis Associa-
tion in its animal seal sale to

PAUL IN EPHESUS
Lesson for Dec. 3rd.
Acts 19 and 2#. Golden Text: Matthew 5:10.
Ephesus was the capital of the Roman province of Asia. An
important center of commerce, art and religion, its crowning
glory was the famous temple of Diana, me of the seven
wonders of the world. In this pagan community, notorious
for its'faith in magic, Paul carried on a long,
eventful ministry. At first he taught ia the
synagogue, but because of opposition he with-
drew to the school of Tyrannns, and there
taught and preached for two yeats. So favored
was he by God’s Spirit that he was able to per-
form miracles of healing and exorcism.
Naturally enough, when certain Jewish
exorcists learned of Paul’s success in casting
out evil spirits, they were encouraged to imitate
him. The consequences, however, were so dis-
astrous that the Ephesians became panicky,
and a very valuable assortment of books on the Ofc war*
magical arts was publicly burned. The Chrhtian faith, as a re.

suit, gained in
and influence, spreading rapidly
throughout the whole province. So many converts indeed were
woe to Christ that the tradesmen who sold silver shrines of
Diana suffered a serious lass of business, snd therefore, hi
alarm, organized a noisy and turbulent demonstration against
the apostle..
Bat to get a complete picture one must supplement the ac-
count in Acts by a study of the references to Ephesus in Paul’s
letters. Here we learn that he was prostrated by a severe III-
ness (2 Cor. IjS); that he was apparently condemned to a
combat with wild beasts In the arena (1 Cor. 15:32); and en-
dured other painful trials (1 Cor. 4:11). His mission was a
success but he himself, as in other places, suffered greatly.
Yet how unconquerable is his spirit! Read carefully his ap-
pealing farewell address, in Acts 20, to the Ephesian elders.
Here we feel the contagion of one of the bravest, noblest, and
teaderest of men.
Paul bad now labored in four of the provinces of the Roman
empire. He now journeys to Jerusalem, bearing a collection
for the poor.__
Screen Tells Story

For the Fiat Time
Romance, comedy, melo-
drama snd pathos in heaping
and palatable doses are clever-
ly stirred together la the new
First National production.
“Bureau of Missing Persons,”
to make it cne of the most en-
tertaining aad fastest moving
P'—.- es that has been shown
the Palace theatre for some
time.
The mysterious, aad to a
large extent, secret workings
of that division of the police
department ia which are re-
corded the eases of kidnaped
men and women and those
who strangely vanish, are
brought to light for the first
time ia pictures with Bette
Davit, Pat O’Brien, Lewis
Stone and Glenda Farrell
heading the large cast.
In every large city there are
thousands of miming persons
reported yearly. A fair pro-
portion of these persons are
found, but many disappear
completely. Every class and
age is represented among the
missing, as related in the pic-
ture.
The Park Avenue* of the
na. n have famished their
quota .o the bureau of the
missing persons just as has the
slums, two such notable cases
being that of Dorothy Arnold,
the wealthy New York and
Newport society girl, who
dropped out of sight one
morning, never to be heard of
again: and that of the Hon.
Joseph Force Crater, a justice
of the New York Supreme
court no trace of whom has
been found since he disap-
peared.
ft is the effort of the police
to the Bureau of Missing Per-
sons to solve them mysteries
around wheih the plot of the
story is woven. The cases in
the picture me based on actaal
fact They parallel some of
the most famous disappear-
ance cases the country hao
known.
The story also gives an ac-
curate and graphic picture of
the methods employed by the
police.
There is an exceptionally
large and able cast of players,
many of them whom have star-
red on both stage and screen.
