Lesson Text Matthew 1 and 2 | With this lesson we begin a six-month study of the Gospel of St. Matthew. The aim of this ‘study of Matthew’s Gospel is to learn of the teachings of Jesus concerning the Kingdom of Heav- en, and to ascertain the signific- ance of those teachings for the life of today, both in personal | character and social relationships. Having been one of the Apos- tles, Matthew was an eye witness and related facts from his own experience. We know very little \ definitely of his life after the cru- cifixior but it is generally accept- *'ed that he spent fifteen years preaching and teaching to Ethio- pia, Macedonia, Syria, Persia and other regions. Matthew’s Book was written primarily for Jews and it is said Sunday School Lesson ,dia, Persia and Arabia, respec- itively. Having seen a strange \\ star they were led to seek the new Savior. In 1604 the great astronomer Kepler saw the plan- ets Jupiter and Saturn’in con- junction, and’ shortly afterward a bright star burst forth in the constellaticn of the Serpent. Cal- culations show that just before ithe birth of Jesus these same jtwo planets were in conjunction. | Having found the new King, |with the aid of Herod, the wise (men presented him with their gifts but, warned by a dream, ; they would not return to tell the ! wicked Herod where they found ‘him. Herod had oppressed the |Jews and was fearful of opposi- tion, so he sought to kill this possible rival. As a result, the ‘holy family fled into Egypt, where tradition says they joined other Jewish refugees near Cairo, and stayed for something over a jyear and only returned to Pales- tine upon Herod’s death. How- ever, because they feared Arche- laus, Hered’s son, they did not stop in the territory ruled by him but continued.on and settled lin Nazareth in Galilee, where Je- sus spent his early life. 8 p. m.

Consolidatign of County and City Governments. The tender Poppy is really a rugged boat. Chaucer may have been a great poet, but his spelling was terrible. Every individual is apt to judge others by his, or her, inner morality. Somebody says that knowledge re- moves fear. Now we understand why there are so many cowards. Former King Zog of Albania re- cently visited Versailles, perhaps to have | a. look at the famous treaty which now | isn’t. Now the reason is apparent why the people of the United States refused to have this country join the League of Nations and the wisdom of the refusal is obvious. Let us continue to shinny on our own side! Twenty-five years ago, at the time of the World War, Jack Johnson, a Negro, was heavyweight champion of the world. Today, a quarter of a century later, anoth- er Negro, Joe Louis, is heavyweight cham- pion of the world, and another World War | im prospect. e | If the big newspapers with their vast | advertising patronage and large circula-| tion are folding up, how long can the! small town daily paper with meager ad- vertising and small circulation last until it | crumbles into dust?—Key West Citizen. | Cheer up! It is written that from dust ye came and to the dust ye shall return.— Sanford Herald. | In these times of great stress, Arch- | bishop Spellman’s direction to his clergy to | use the prayer ‘Pro Pace” has a deep sig- nificance. The prayer was written by | Pope Gelasius, about A. D. 494, when the | ald world was in worse shape, politically, | than it is today. It was in the days of At- | fila, Alaric, Generic and Hunneric, under Whose leadership the oppressed people | fared worse than under the dictatorships of | Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin. Hunneric, | fer instance, at Carthage, ordered all | churches closed in one day and all church property handed over to the Arians, and forbade anyone to give them food or lodg- ing on pain of being burnt with his house | merely a question whether Germany or | Russia acquired the territory. Having in- stigated the Hitler attack and being ready to grab her share of the spoils, the Russian | government must bear equal blame with | Germany for the destruction of Poland. GENIUS AND THE BIRTH RATE Many sociologists have bemoaned the fact that the birth rate, among healthy and intelligent couples, is much lower than among people who occupy a lower classi- fication along these two lines, That the poorer, uneducated and less healthy portion of our population is pre- senting the nation with most of its chil- dren and that the so-called more _priv- ileged group is apparently regulating the size of the family by economie factors is, we think, too apparent for argument. One thing, however, should be borne in mind. So far as we know, there is no | known method of determining where genius criginates and, often, from unfa- vored and unprepossessing parents the race is presented with great sons and daughters. Saying this much is not deny- ing the law of averages, which insists upon asserting itself, and makes more probable the gift of superiority to those infants blessed with fortunate parents. Given a number of children, the re- public through the schools and other demo- eratic processes, can develop good citizens. The larger the percentage of boys and girls that bless the homes of humble and | impoverished parents, the greater the obligation upon government and_ society .to give them a chance to develop for themselves. With proper educational ad- vantages and equal economic opportunity there is no telling where any boy, or girl, may go in a land of liberty, freedom and justice. TWICE AS DANGEROUS AT NIGHT — Investigation ‘of traffic accidents Jeads to the conclusion that night travel | is at least twice as dangerous as daytime travel. It seems certain that one of the con- tributing factors to this increased danger involves the lighting facilities of modern automobiles. Sometimes the accident is eaused by inadequate light on the high- way, and, at other times, by excessive glare which blinds the drivers of ap- proaching vehicles. In either case, acci- dents are more likely to occur. The automobile manufacturers have made great contributions to transportation ‘in the development of fine motor cars. It is about time for them to give more seri- ous consideration to the development of an adequate and safe method of providing light for automobile drivers. Automobile drivers in Key West, who find themselves on the highways after dark, can contribute to the safety of pedes- rules of good manners. For example, one driving an automobile with its beaming headlights. can show a regard for others by promptly dimming them upon meeting another vehicle. The failure to do this | volving the careless driver, and, at times, } prevents another driver from seeing a | pedestrian or obstacle in his path.
