Special attention was given to the discussion of methods and policies by which the giving of the people in the future can be sustained at the highest level thus far reached. The experi- ence of the several churches in their efforts to secure the full apportion- ment from participating churches, to enlist the support of the churches in making appeals to large individual Another major theme under consid- eration was the relation of the pro- motional department to the adminis- trative agencies of the denomina- tion. This question was felt to be 5o important, and the discussion re- vealed a wide range of judgment as to the wisest procedure that a special committee was appointed by the gath- ering to make a study of the exist- ing ~ promotional organizations in the various denominations and to} submit_their results to all the promo- tional bodies for suc. guidance as the study might afford. The committee. as appointed by Rev. Joseph H.

Golden Text.—I know him whom T have belleved, and 1 am persuaded that he Is able to guard that which 1 nave com- mitted unto him against that day. 2 Tim., 1.12. 1 ‘ | i BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. There is 1o more fascinating story of the sea than the graphic record of Paul's voyage and shipwreck, which |is the subject for this week’s study. Shortly after the apostle had made his defense before Agrippa he started upon his eventful journey to Rome under the charge of Julius, an officer in the Augustan cohort. Paul's app-al to Ceasar resulted in the government ranging for transportation of the great- est representative of the gzospel to Rome. The moment that the cousting el which bore Paul and two of his closest friends left the pier at Ceasarea. “that moment a new world began.” It meant more to Paul and Luke than it did to Aristarchus, the apostled Mace- donian friend, as they sailed up along the coast and looked for the last time upon the shores of their beloved land. He was carrying the gospel to Rome, as God had promised him and aad planned. He was to open up a new cen- ter for Christianity in the world's capi- tal and plan to make it the headquar- ters of missionary work that would carry the gospel, with its blessings, to ar- all mankind. i Luke has given, in his account of Paul's journey, the most valuable record us from tie ancient Graeco-Roman world, Smith in-hig “Voyage and Ship- wreck of St. Paul,” has amply vindi- cated, by his exhaustive studies and in- vestigations, the accuracy and consist- ency of Luke's statements concerning the journey. Smith claims that the writer could mot have been a Seaman. since his languafe is not technical or professional, vet his precision and knowledge of nautical affairs, revealed of the voyage, A ople’s forum on far east prob-[in 2is graphic story Known as Church of Lems 1o e Neld on the wfierhoons |Brove that he must have been an cyco of December 9 and 10.

That disarmament will be an ac- i complished fact in the near future is the belief of ‘udge Rutherford. He claims that disarmament will be ac- complished as a result of Christ's kingdom being established on earth, {and” that, additionally. all mankind will have the opportunity of obtain- ing everllasting life and happiness.

He gave Paul and friends special privileges while 3 were at Sidon that permitted the apos tle to visit the Christians taere and be the recipient of their kindness and hos- pitality. Whiie they were at Lasea, on the western end of Crete, Paul adtised Julius of the danger that they faced in attempting, even in the great wheat ship, that they had shipped in. when at Myra, for Ita if they ventured at that late season to attempt to make |h_0 rest |of their journey. They were without {compasses and charts, which added to the difficuities that they faced at that season when travel by sea was consid- ered very dangerous, due to the Violence of the windstorms. The captain was lured by the south wind, “blowing under breath” (as the Greek has it), to believe that he could make with safety Phenice, which would be a much better harbor for wintering and which was only fifty miles west- ward of Lasea. Paul's appeal to the master concerning the danger to his vessel and to the owner, who Wi on board, concerning the possible loss of his cargo of wheat. and to Juiius and others concerning the peril that the pas- sengers faced was disregarded. The {large wheat ship, creeping along cauti- | ously under the shore with the rowboat |in tow astern did not appear to be in danger. No man _can_disregard th warnings sent to him by God's mes- sengers and remain in security and safety. Suddenly “a typhonic northeastener” came down from the mountains (which rise at Crete about 7,000 feet) seized the ship and whirled it around so that the Euroclydon carried the ship out of its course. During fourteen days with- out the aid of stars or sun to guide the sailors in navigating the ship the cap- tain and his crew, {renzied with fear. | fasted and prayed unto their individual idols for protection. Under Clauda they succeeded in pulling the lifeboat, which they had been towing, on board, and ipassed frapping cables around the boat to strengthen the ship. They “passed these cables under the keel and over the gunwales, and drawing them tight by means of pulleys and levers” in an ef- fort to prevent the planks from starting, especially at that point where the strain from the large mast and one sail usuail; threatens most vessels with leakages. They could not steer the ship in that terrific storm by the two paddle rud- The terrific gale tossed like as if it were a cork the ship that creaked beneath the waves that beat upon it and rolled over its deck.

They had feared at the commencement of the storm that they would be wrecked upon the dangerous shore.of Africa between Tuni and Tripoli No one who has never been in a l¢ ing ship during a storm cag understand the strain of the people on“board that wheat vessel as it drifted with the wind through the storm-swept Adriatic sea In the darkness all on board gave up except Paul and his two compan- }ions. The captain and crew were pre- pared to-desert the ship at the first favorable opportunity. The soldiers were ready to kill their prisoners.
