Through some means she hnd heard of Jesus' pardon' Ing grace- nn ene( ncr heart to receive Him as her Saviour Out of heart of gratitude she kissed His feet and anointed them with pre clous ointment 8. Who She Was (v. 87). Her name Is not mentioned. She was of a notoriously bad character.

Though known to the public as. a bad woman, something had happened which transformed her. She was now a saved ilnner, because she believed on Christ. I). The 38).

Simon felt scandalized by such happening at his table. He wan a re- jpectnble man. For Jesos to tolerate gnch familiarity on the part of a woman of such evil repute greatly perplexed him. He reasoned that if Jesus were a prophet He would have known the character of this woman tod would have either withdrawn HlB feet from her or thrust her 'back with them, or If He knew lier ter His tolerance of such familiarity proved that He was -not a good man. Simon's righteousness was of sort which gathers up Its skirts' 'and lives the sinner a backward push into Ms filth.

III. Teaches tha (vr. He taught him by means of a parable of a creditor and two debtors. Observe that Jesus made it very clear that He not only knew the woman, bat knew Simon also. 1.

The Common Debt (v. 41). woman was a sinner, so was 'Simon, though he was not the same kind of a sinner that she was. There were two 'debtors, though the one owed ten as much as other. This is 4 representative of all sinners still.

The Bible declares all to be sinners, yet recognizes degrees of guilt. Full cred- 'It ought to be given to tlie man who Is honest, virtuous, generous and kind, let such a life will not secure entrance Into heaven. The Savior's words are a severe rebuke to the respectable Pharisees who are sitting In Judgment against the sinners of a coarser type. 2. The Common Insolvency (v.

42). "And when they Ihnd nothing to pay" Jesus freely granted the difference in the degree of the woman's" sins and those of the Pharisee, but drove home to him the fact that they were both debtors and had nothing with which to pay (Rom. Therefore all have need of a Saviour. As sinners we may quit our sinning and hate our deeds, but that does not wake satis-, faction for the sins of the past. What we.

have done la irrevocable it has passed from our reach. Every trans- gresslon shall receive a Just recompense of reward (Heb. We must come to our Creditor, God Almighty, acknowledge insolvency and accept the kindness of Jesus Christ who bore our sins In His own body on the tree (I Pet. We are all Paupers, und Instead ot Judging each other us to relative guilt, we should come to Rod und sue for pardon. 3.

The Itelatlon of Forgiveness and Love (w. 44-48. Simon's reluctant answer to Jesus' question shows that got the point of Jesus' teaching. 1 In order to make His teaching concrete He turned to the woman, call- In? Simon's attention to what she had done In contrast to what he had done. Simon hnd neglected to extend to Jesus tlie common courtesies of a re- eptetnhio guest, but this forgiven woman had lavished upon Him her affection and gifts.

The measure of one's love determined by the meas- of the apprehension of sins for- flven. The one who Is forgiven roost love most.

HUMAN MOTH DRAWNTOTHE TOWN FLAME Points to Economic Danger of Steady Deser tion of Farms MERCER COUNTY ONE SHOWN IN STATISTICS Some Counties Show Heavy Decline in Rural Population as Cities Grow This is from an article in a series by John W. Brooks, director American Highway Educational Bureau, Washington, and published in tho 1'hilndclphia North American. What American city will set tho brakes on population Increase and use its power to divert the human throng back Into tho open spaces? Is tho city of the future to be gauged by tho number of struggling poo- plo It holds within its confines, or will HH greatness be measured by unselfish service in decentralization rather than concentration of human activities around super-costly shipping and housing points? Cold wo but let them toll strange tales with facts that carry a warning note. Hero Is a story which figures tell of Pennsylvania at this hour. They recite first, that the state has a total kind area of 44,832 square miles.

Since William Penn instructed his associates to build "a green country town" with ample space around each house, tho processes of town development have, merged into city construction to suoh extent thnt 3,411.738 persons out ot Pennsylvania's 8,720,017 are packed into 240 square miles of city space, occupied by fourteen municipal! ties, leaving ample room In the remaining 44,592 square mile's which an increasing number of people do not soom to want. FARM WORKERS DECREASE. Figures also recite tho fact that while $315,000,000 has gone into new construction In Philadelphia and Pittsburgh atono since 1913, nearly 12,000 food-producing shut down since 1900. Taking the state as a whole, those food-producing plants arc still shutting Only In the more favored spots and where the construction of modern roads is well under way is tho form holding its own against the city's illusions of lesa toil and higher wage. It will bo news to many to learn that the number workers on Pennsylvania farms decreased from 148,320 in 1910 to 84,021 in 1920, that crop values declined $153,554,509 in 1921, and that 13,650 farm operators themselves deserted the fields.

While rental nn'ft ground values increased in cities farm land values have dropped in the last twelve months from $80,50 to $73.50 per acre. Figures further recite the fact that the iintirc range of counties on tho north bou'ndry of the state, with the ex-' coptton of Erie, are declining in rural population, that is, population not included in towns of 2500 or over. MERCER COUNTY ITOLDINO ITS OWN. Not only is tho northern section suffering rural blight, but counties In tlio center and a few on the 'southern boundry aro affected OB weli. Pot- toi; county leads with a decrease of 22.3 cent.

Forest follows with 20.3 per oE'nt, Venango next with 18 per cent, Elk 16.2. Sullivan 15.1, Tloga 15.1. Lebanon 13.5, Susquonanna 12.4, Jefferson 12.4, Warren 9.G, Bradford 9, Wyoming 9, Lycomlng 8.5, Monroe 7, Berks 7.1, Crawford 6.4, Wayne 6.1, Perry 5.02, Mifllin 4, Juniata 3.7, Franklin 4.2, Cameron 3.10, and York 3.3. Tlie counties of Fulton. Adams, Clinton, Mercer, Bedford and Huntingdon aro barely holding own.

On tho other hand, city population, an compared with rural, jumped from 54.7 per cent in 1900 to 60.4 in 1910 and from there to 64.3 in 1920., Whoever tho "pied piper" may bo, or by whatever agency this drift in habitation and occupation has been brought about, it augurs ill for the future. Over- promotion of city and under-promotlon of rum! areas Is unmistakably ono phase of American progress that is literally loaded with economic TNT. There are many thousands more Pcnnsylva- nians to be fed at 'the city crib than there, were ten years ago, and this in the faco of a decline in tho" number of a vory slight gain In total farm, production. Dairy products, however, aro on the increase. Tho bee arid tho hen with tho patient cow, seem''to be tho only producers on the farm not affected by the lure of jazz-erazcil cities which the Lord be praised! FOOT) REQUIREMENTS GROW.

That tho growth of industrial and commercial centers has contributed in wealth to tho people of Pennsylvania cannot bo denied, Tho development of these centers has been both logical and necessary. But as producing areas de- lino, and food requirements Increase, tho time appears at bund when, it an all-finbruclng prosperity is to bo tho lot of the people, a chock must be placed upon farm decay. To an observant traveler, the causes which llo back of this modern exodus from farm to city aro apparent In every unpu'lntcd houso by tho roadaido, hi tho drab, insanitary conditions that surround it, in the isolation enforced upon whole communities by types of road that belong to another age, in pitiably poor schools that put a dumper upon youth, and in tin- over-increasing number of neglected of spiritual decay. A reconstruction, rededication and better uao of the country road, the tie that binds orderly communities into a great commonwealth, the distributor of nature's products and the blessings of peace, is submitted as the only route over which iho people rnay bo directed buck toward old lands of new promise. Happily, through its highway department, has already begun this important work.

Chats With Your Gas Man America's first bathtub was seven feet long, four feet wide, built of mahogany and weighed seventeen hundred and fifty pounds. Curious persons in Cincinnati dubbed it "a glorious but the doctors frowned and said it invited fever, rheumatism and inflammation of the lungs. This was in 1842. In 1850 President Filmore of the United States had the first bathtub placed in the White House. He had bathed in the original "glorious dishpan" and had liked it so much that he decided to have one of his own.

The White House "dishpan" remained until Cleveland became President, when a more modern contrivance took its place. Today the bathtub is a necessity, as is also running hot water at the faucets, Modern gas water-heaters and a quick, dependable, economical gas service, have done as much to make the bath a habit as the bathtub itself.
