As the merchantman went out seeking the most valuable pearl, so all the
world is to-day seeking for something which will satisfy and render
their owners happy. There are many good things in this world, but none
of them can make any one contented and happy, like the salvation which
Jesus gives when we repent of our sins and in faith accept Him as our
Saviour. Before you get, or even desire any other pearl, I want each of
you to accept of this "Pearl of great price," which is Jesus Christ.

          QUESTIONS.--Of what is a pearl the symbol in the
          Bible? Are pearls valuable? Is salvation valuable?
          Where are pearls principally found? How are they
          obtained? Are pearls polished like the diamond?
          Why do people wear pearls? Can we lose pearls by
          having them stolen? Can we lose salvation? Who
          would steal it away? Who can give us the "Pearl of
          great price"?

          It is well to have the children learn the answers
          to many of the leading Bible questions. Try them
          in the following:--Who was the first man? Who was
          the first woman? Of what did God make Adam and
          Eve? Who was the first murderer? Who was the
          oldest man? Who built the ark? Who had the coat of
          many colors? Who was the strongest man? Who slew
          Goliath the giant? With what did David slay
          Goliath? Who was the wisest man? Who was cast into
          the den of lions? Who went to Heaven in the
          chariot of fire without dying? Upon whom did
          Elijah's mantle fall? A goodly number of similar
          questions are found on pages 25 and 26.




COAL AND WOOD.

JESUS THE SOURCE OF SPIRITUAL LIGHT AND WARMTH.

          SUGGESTION:--The objects used to-day can be a
          piece of wood, a piece of coal, a candle and a
          piece of electric light carbon, such as are daily
          thrown away in towns where the arc lighting is
          used.


DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS: When Jesus was upon the earth, He said of Himself,
"I am the light of the world." Now, I desire to-day to illustrate to you
something of the truth which Jesus had in mind when He uttered these
words.

[Illustration: The Sun and Moon.]

We are told in the Bible, that when God created the world, on the fourth
day He created the sun and the moon to give light upon the earth, the
sun to rule over the day, and the moon to rule over the night.
