GEO. M. HULME. Minister MEN'S BIBLE CLASS

The subject of our lesson for next Sunday is The Last Supper. It is a true account of one of the most im-pressive events in Biblical history.

The Feast of the Passover was celebrated annually by the Jews. Its purpose was to commemorate the sparing of the Hebrews in Egypt when the first born were slain A lamb was sacrificed and unleaven bread was served with wine. It was a season of prayer and thanks-giving.

At the time of our lesson Christ faced a gathering storm of adverse sentiment. He had openly con-demned the priests, the scribes and the Pharisees. He was secretly shadowed and careful plans were being laid to trap and kill him. So it was necessary to prepare the last supper with great secrecy. The story of this preparation is beau-tiful. The fellowship of that gath-ering, the brotherly love in evi-dence, and the mingled joy of Christ's presence with the sadden-ing influence of the realization that he was so near his death, de-veloped a tenseness which was suddenly surcharged by the start-ling announcement that a traitor sat at tha t very table.

Buss Siddall, Arnold Roxbury, Wil-bur Koons, Newton Guise and Boib Maas have rented a cottage for the rest of the summer, fall and winter at Muzzy Lake located somewhere between Ravenna and Rootstown, Ohio, U. S. A. The cottage is fu r -nished with a lake, boat, piano and other suitable equipment necessary for bachelor quarters. Out there this summer, these young gentle-men expect to entertain their fa th-ers, the fire department and them-selves. Prom all reports received thus far it is a very restful place where little rest can be obtained. For example Dick Osnian and Wil-bur Koons. musicians extraordinary, spent over half the 'night recently tuning the piano with a pipe wrench. After the job was com-plete other musicians (?) played until two or three A. M. Such a life!

It is refre'.ihing at times to think of young folks who can and will do well in school. Read this :

Among all students in the Stow High school this year two f reshman girls, Miss Mary Semon of Silver Lake and Miss Elaine Everett, tied for first place in scholastic stand-ing. Their average grade was 96la per cent. A senior, Miss Annabelle Wade of Silver Lake, was next with an average of 96.25 per cent.

Miss Jane Dibben, freshman, of West Arndale road, was third with an average for the year of 95.9 per cent, Donald Moore, sophomore, fourth-average 95.85 per cent, Jan-ice Bittman, senior, fifth, average 95.5 per cent, and Imogene McClos-key, junior, came next with an av-erage of 95.0 per cent.

On Senior Recognition Day it is customary to make an award for good citizenship to one boy and one girl. Jack Wilbur and Mary Kempel were the recipients of that honor this year. Furthermore, it should be of interest to Stow citi-zens to know that the Summit County Scholarship team took first place one week ago last Saturday in the State Scholarship contest held at Cciumbus. Four members of the Summit County team were from Stow, namely, Jane Dibben, Imo-gene Mc'ClosMy, Mary Semon and Annabelle Wade. In individual merit at the State Contest, County Classification, Jane Dibben stood sixth in Latin I, Imogene MeClos-key sixth in French I, Annabelle Wade, fourth in English XII.

Stow was placed eieventh among • high ranking individual schools on county teams.

T i k e it all in all we should be proud of Stow school.
