Jemima had inherited a keen interest in missions from her fa- ther and several months earlier while visiting an English mission school she was attracted by a Greek melody which a band of children were singing as a march- ing song. "What a fine children's hymn that will make," she thought, "if only I.can find the righht words for it."

BARCLAY WARREN It was the night before the cru- cifixion. Jesus had eaten with the twelve. He became 'troubled in spirit, and testified and said, 'Verily, verily, I say, unto you, that one of you shall betray me'." On John's. request he identified Judas Iscariot as the one who would do the awful deed. Judas went out "and it was night". Then Jesus told them that He would soon leave them. Simon Peter was unsatisfied with the promise that "thou canst follow me after. wards". He said, 'Why cannot 1 follow the now? 1 will lay down my life for thy sake." Jesus re- plied with words that brought still more sadness to the group, "Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The eock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice." At this point Jesus spoke the words which have perhaps brought more comfort than any others ever spoken. 'Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, be- lieve also in me. house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you, 1 will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." It was good to know that He would come again. But how would they ever get along without Him in the meantime? He would sup- ply this need. Said he, "I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever; even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth Him not, neither knoweth Him: yet ye know Him; For He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you." John 14:16, 17. : The promise of Jesus was fulfill- ed on the day of Penticost. We commemorate the occasion on Whitsunday 'which this year falls on June 1 It is well that we learn more of the Bible teaching with re- gard to the Holy Spirit. for verses to fit the melody that had caught her fancy. But none that she found quite suited her and finally Jemima discarded them all and decided to write her own. The stage-coach trip. a few days later, brought her both the opportunity and the inspiration for her com- position. The boys and girls in her, Sun- day School were delighted when she taught them the words and music of her hymn and it was not long until her father, who was.sup- erintendent of the school, heard of it. Without Jemima's knowledge, he sent a copy to the Sunday School Teachers' Magazine where it first appeared in print. For 100 years it has been a fa- vorite in Sunday Schools through- out the world. Through transla- tions, boys and girls of many for- eign lands have been able to share the enjoyment of its beautiful, thrilling message. Adults have en- joyed the hymn as much as have children, and young people have used it in Christian Endeavor con- ventions and other gatherings. Jemima was only 28 when she wrote "That Sweet Story of Old." Two years later she was married to the Rev. Samuel Luke. All her life she kept her interest in for- eign missions and to make her hymn appropriate for use in mis- sionary gatherings she added this third stanza: "But thousands and thousands who wander and fall . Never heard of that heavenly home; I should like them to know there is room for them all, And that Jesus has bid them to come. And O how I long for that glor- fous time, The Sweetest, and brightest and est, When the dear little children of every clime Shall crowd to His arms and be blest!" When the international Christian Endeavor convention was meeting in Baltimore in 1904, Mrs. Luke sent this inspiring message to the youthful delegates; * "Dear children, you will be men and women soon, and it is for you and the children of England to carry the message of a Saviour's love to every nation of this sin- stricken world. It is a blessed mes- sage to carry, and it is a happy work: to do. The Lord make you ever faithful to Him, and unspeak- ably happy in His sérvice! I came to Him at 10 years of age and, at 91, I can testify to His care and faithfulness." legal h s, where the Thursday from 2 to 4:30 p.m., Bible and Ch Sci e may be studied, borrowed or it: purchased and subscriptions placed for periodicals.
