The True-Witness Twins Triumph

[Of Special Interest to Children]

ANN SEATON BOSQUEZ

It was almost time for Sunday School to begin. Indicating the two empty chairs in the class, Johnny remarked, "We're all here but the tardy twins." Just then the bell rang, and the Sunday School exercises began. While they were singing, the outside door opened, and in came Lora and Lucy.

Although the twins looked nothing alike, their faces wore the same unhappy expressions as they took their places in the class circle. As soon as it was discussion time, the twins began to pour out their troubles. It didn't matter how hard they tried, they just couldn't get to Sunday School on time on account of their brother, they said. He always wanted to play, and he would hide his shoes and pretend that he couldn't find them so that he could stay at home and play, they added.

The teacher asked if anyone in the class knew what commandment was being broken. The children thought and thought. Then they opened their Bibles to Exodus 20 and began to look at the Ten Commandments. Finally Lora said, "I think it's the ninth commandment."
