A. G. Koenig, ance a poor teacher, who struck oil in Texas, has resumed his study of chem- stry at the university He started his course in 1917, but lack of funds caused him to abandon it. In 1921, when he had saved enough to prodfice a small income, he made two pledges.

He began teaching at Mexia he made a wise investment in iand that had a gas well which under his analysis showed a gasoline content. A well was sunk, oil was found and his vearly income increased in six months to $100,000. The same year.he gave $20,000 to education and charity. Koenig says he believes in the efi- cacy of prayer and has found that it harmonizes with scientific thought.

HUGH T. STEVENSO] THE SECOND/ MISSIONARY TOUR — Acts xv.836; xvi.b. Golden text—He shall domain also from sea to v and from the river unto the ends of the th.—Psalm 72.8. Missionarles sent from the! have fields of labor. The spirit of missions fills them with ssatisfaction when auything inter- | reres with their pushing forward the work of the kingdom of God among the people of their field. They feel the compulsion of Christ's command that has made Christianity a mis- sionary religion ‘The apostles and all the other leaders had recognized during the council at Jerusalem that Paul had been given the mission of svangelizing the zentiles, so that the pull of the missionary work made him anxious to resume his great| work The great pioneer, whom | Renan recognized as the greatest missionary of the first century, had caught the Master's vision'of world dominion. His program of winning the Roman world, province by prov- ince, was based upon the marching orders that Christ Jesus had issued to His church During the preceding missionary tour Paul had come to understand the principles of missionary work as a result of his experience. They had learned that the establishment of the Roman Empire and its system of | highways had opened the door in all | directions for the expansion of Christianity. The wide use of the Greek language had facilitated their work, giving them an almost uni- versal hearing. Wherever they went they had a mezus of approach and were certain of being able to obtain a hearing. Althought the empire had removed the nitional barriers, they knew that they faced perse- cutions because they despised the “gods” that the people had been in the habit of worshiping. Paul un- derstood that Rome was opposed to | Eastern faiths and that Judaism the only one that could legally be propagated - It is quite probable that this fact may have entered into the controversy that caused the separation between Paul and Bar- nabas, who had shown courage when he stood sponsor for Saul when he was trying to join the disciples in Jerusalem at an hour when they | distrusted him, and confidence in him | whe he sought 1d up the we tians of him out to help among the gentile Antioc Controversy with Barnabas. The dissension which arose between Paul and Barnabas grew out of Pa roposition that they should revisit the churches that they had estab- lished on their first missionary jour- nev. The misslonary movement was commenced by the call of the Lord. God spoke and the work was com- menced. While that fact marked the opening of the first tour, here we note that Paul proposed to Barnabas the second tour. when he said, “Let us go." Evidently Barnabas approved bu Chr of the n to “visit the brethren” in the centers where they had preached and ablished churches. He shared Paul's love for the breth- ren and evidently desired to strength- en them. One has (o read be to see the “paroxysm’ that marked the clash between the two zealous missionaries, who were the outstand ing figures in the Christian mission- ary work of the first century. The differences developed over the pro posal of Barnabas that they give John Mark a second chance and let him ! accompany him. He did not believe | that he should be cast aside befausei of his slip at Perga. He pled that he was at least entitled to a chance to make good. Paul refused to im- peril the work by allowing one who had failed and not yet demonstrated that he could be depended upon to join them. Mark appeared at the time to Paul to be an apostate, who would not sympathize with him eon- cerning the work among the Gen- tiles. While differences over John Mark led to the abrupt breaking up of the missionary partnership, that had made Barnabas and Paul true voke fellows in winning the Gentiles for Christ. the cause of the controversy was in all probability due to some social differences, which evidently had not been settled by the Jerusalem conference. It developed during a visit of a delegation from Jerusalem, whose argumbnts caused Peter to change his attitude and Barnabas had shared the views of these representa- tives of James. who had protested azainst the positions taken by Paul. In all probability, John Mark shared the view that Paul condemned. The cause of the difference is not stated, but Paul refers to it in his letter te the Galatians, which indicates that the differences were based upon vital principles, which Paul held wers settled In Jerusalem by the decision that gave approval of his plea for spiritual liberty and freedom from the bondage of the law. There was more in the “sharp con- fention” than can be put in words. It covered more than the conduét and character of John Mark. Evidently Barnabas, who had been given first place in the Jerusalem decrees, had resented, but he had for the time smothered his personal feelings against Paul's leadership out of his love for the cause, had spoken out concerning Paul's superceding him. ‘The “son of consolation” showed the ordinary temper of other men. Paul who later “wrote the noblest hymn on love in_existence” was not able to control his tongue. He opposed with passionate heat the suggestions of Barnabas, for he kept on repeating his position, although Barnabas only made the suggestion about John Mark once. It is the tragedy of Chris. tianity that two such great souls should ‘fail to. agree. Both suffered because of the estrangement. There was no way tb avold the rupture after ft had started. They did not allow it to divide the Antioch Church en the lines { or allow it to embitter them Discovering Timothy. The (wo missionarles separaied. Our hearts go with Barnabas and we long to know more of the man, who befriended not only Paul but John Mark in his hour of need. He knew how to take men that had failed and GAS DROPS 1 CENT.

He placed the responsibility upon them to win souls for Christ Jesus and His church They entered Lycaonia from the South and passing through Derbe came to Lystra, where Paul called to the work of the mintstry a young disciple, Timothy, who had been con verted ‘during his previous journey and was well spoken of by the mem bers of the church.

S. MARINE LAWS Logging Operator Says Canadians Have Advantage of Using Any Shipping Vessels. Bs the Associated Press. SEATTLE. Wash.. August § — Mark E. Reld, one of the m;en logging operators in the State. testi- fying yesterday before the United States Tariff Commission, which con- tinued a hearing here, blamed the merchant marine laws for the condi tion of the lumber market. Reid told Chairman Marvin that even with a high tariff against her, British Columbia could hold up her own end of competition with the Pacific Northwest of the United States in selling lumber on Atlantic coast. The commission has been asked to recommend that President Coolidge cut in half the American duty of §1 & thousand feet on logs from Canada. Reld argued that the duty should be raised by a half and that the tariff on lumber and shingles should at least be maintained. v “Canadians have the advantage in shipping,” Reid explained. “They can use any tramp steamer loading in a Canadian port and discharging in an American port, getting lower rates. We are forced to use American car riers between American ports and the difference in carrying costs more than offsets any advantage we get under a protective tariff on our Eastern markets.” WASHINGTONIAN NAMED.

UNEMPLOYED REPORTED FEW Surplus of Clerical Workers Here Showed Small In- crease in July. Employment conditions in the Dis- trict of Columbia compared satisfac- torily with conditions in June ‘and showed an increase of 604 over the to- tal number placed in July, 1924, not- withstanding a decrease in the num- ber of Federal workers in Washing- ton. This announcement was made today by the United States Employ- ment Service of the Department of Labor from a survey of employment conditions in Washington for July. The survey disclosed that a large vol- ume of building construction is un- der way and work is to start within a few days on construction totaling more than $900,000. One of the projects is a $500.000 store and office buiiding. Building Trades Employed. Skilled building tradesmen are very well employed, the report said, with the supply apd demand for skilled and unskilled labor very well bal anced, no surplus of either being in- dicated. The surplus of clerical work- ers, always noticeable in Washington, increased slightly during July and the employment service holds out no hope of an immediate reduction. The Maryland employment service director noted u small amount of un- employment in some of the larger cities of the State, although industries were gald to be operating on fairly sat- isfactory schedules, with the exception of those that are seasonally closed. State road work and municipal im- provements under way in the various cities were sald to be affording em ployment to a large volume of labor Activity in Virginia. Industrial activity in Virginia con tinued on a satisfactory basis during July, with very little unemployment apparent. Building continues on a large scale and is affording employ- ment to the resident tredesmen, the report says. Numbers of skilled and unskilled laborers are employed on State road work and municipal im- provements, while the farm labor sup- ply is adequate to meet the demand. Industrial activity continues on a fairly satisfactory basis in West Vir- ginia, with increased activity in the coal fields and State road work absorb- ing much of the surplus labor.

He stepped through the companionway with the obvious air of having something to say. ‘“There is no cause for alarm,” he assured them; “‘the whole affair is a mere trifle, but Mr. Slattery has met with a slight accident. He seems to have slipped coming down the steps from the bridge. We've taken him into the saloon. If one of you ladles who is accustomed- to bandaging—" Gertrude and Susan both rose to their feet. Susan, however, was half- way down the stairs befgre the others had started. Grant was, lying upon a sofa, and a steward was bathing his forehead. He looked up as Susan en- tered. She hurried over to his side and waveqd, the steward away. “Are you hurt, Grant?" she whis- pered eagerly. “Not 1,” he answered. “I'm making the worse of it, but I shall be all right in half an hour. It's a fair enough fight, Susan, but these fellows are in earnest, especlally Blunn. Look here, Nicholson and Martin must be locked up in the chief engineer's quarters. All the bells are cut, but the captain's boy is certain to find them within half an hour. The worse of it is, we shall be In sight of Monaco in an hour or 50 if they keep this speed up.” “They shan'n’t,” she declared. ““Tell me. Who's my man? Where shall 1 go, the engine room, or the bridge?” Grant smiled “Bravo, child!”" he muttered. *Look out! They're coming. The bridge!” Susan turned away with ag little shiver of excitement. Gertrude, who had just hurried in, knelt down by Grant's slde and called to the steward “Some more hot water and lint.” she directed, ome disinfectant, if you have it, and a sponge. Please leave this to me, all of you. I'm used 40 bandaging but 1 hate to have too many people round.” Susan left the saloon stealthily and made her way back on deck. She walked up the lee side and climbed the stairs down which Grant had been thrown. The officer in charge was standing, looking steadily at a light far ahead. He suddenly felt a touch on his arm and turned round with a start to find Susan by his side. “Do you mind my talking to you for a minute,” she whispered. “We're all so scared—so afraid that we're go- ing to break down or something.” “We're quite all right,” the young man declared, a little thickly. “Shall we get back to Monaco to- night?” “In about two hours’ time.

I'm twice as quick as you are and a great deal more used to firearms."” “'Quick, I say!” The muzzle of her pistol gleamed wickedly in the light which shone from the chartroom. The young man stood and looked ahead of him mis- erably. [* “What a night!” he groaned ‘1 can’t wait,” she declared. "“We might be interrupted. Get into the room and ring down at once.

She listened to his brief conversation, covering him all the time. Soon they began what seemed to be a huge turn. The light on thelr port bow disappeared. Now It was abreast of them. Preséntly it was aft. The officer in charge finished his direc- tions and came out of the chartroom. “We're back on Mr. Slattery's origi- nal course,” he announced. “What will happen when that little fati man finds out, I don’t know. Or what will happen to me, eithe; “Stick to it now.” Susan enjoined, “and I'll do the best 1 can with Mr. Slattery.

What's that?"” He swung round. Coming toward them, stealthily and somberly through the darkness, was Blunn, walking on tiptoe, and behind him, gaunt and gray, vet even more menacing, was Funderstrom “Give me the gun,” the young man begged. “I'm fed up with this.” Susan looked into his face and gave it to him. He turned toward the in- truders, and the hand which held the pistol was as steady as a rocl “Look here,” he shouted. “Off my | bridge, both of you!

She edged a little away from him. “Where do you give your orders to the engine room?" she said. He pointed to the charthouse be- hind. She nodded “I have brought you a from Mr. Slattery,” she said. He looked at her suspiciously. There was something stealthy and guard- ed in her attitude. The wind was blowing her hair back from her face. It was a very strong, capable face—a stronger face than his own. Her eyes, too—soft and brown, but compelling— seemed to hold him. “Mr. Slattery’s message,” she went on, “is that you alter the course to due south. It is his wish to go no nearer to Monaco. Will you please ring down to the engine room at once and reverse your course.” . “I can't do that, your ladyship,” he declined. “I have my orders. I must stick to them.” “And I have mine,” she sald, “‘from Mr. Slattery. I have never broken my word in my life and you can take this from me, just as though 1 were a man.

The captain and the chief engineer are both there. Ask the captain to step this way. And listen to me,” he went on, “if either of you two interfere with that man. I'Ti shoot, and shoot where it Kkills, 100." The ba's'n saluted and hurried off. Cornelius ;Blunn shrugged his shoul ders. He'leaned against the rail, but he made no further movement for- ward. ‘My young friend,” he sald, “forgive me if I suggest that you are introduc- ing an unwelcome note of rgelodrama into this little affair. It has been a game of wits between your owner and ourselves. [ fear that the young lady,” he added, bowing to Susan, “has played the winning card. We will voyage with you, sir, in whatever direction you choose. Funderstrom, I am very thirsty.” The two men disappeared. Susan smiled reassuringly up at the young officer hy her side. “That's all right, now,' she de- clared. © ‘You've seen the thing through, after all. It has been rather a mix-up, you know. I'm afraid Mr. Slattery- has been behaving very badly.”” He looked steadily ahead into the windy darkness. “Your ladyship is very kind,” he re joined shortly.

A stew- ard was handing round glasses of champagne, and Cornelius Blunn, with an apologetic grin, was holding a glass in either hand. The prince, looking very pale and malicious, was seated back in the shadows. Grant, with his head bandaged, was standing on the threshold. “My dear guests,” he announced, waving his hand to Susan as she came up, “I regret having to tell you that the worst has iappened. There is no longer any hope of our reaching Mon- aco tonight. The captain, who has just gone up on the bridge, has as- sured me that it is impossible.” “There will be 2 heavy reckoning Funderstrom warned him solemnly. “Under the circumstances,” Grant went on, ignoring the remark, “I have ordered supper (o be served in the saloon " “Supper.” Mr. Cornelius Blunn said | thomghtfully sod bless my soul!
