TAKING UP THE CROSS.By The Editor.

f^^mmitM PEAKING of the price to be paidfC-l^^^m ^ revival�"There's the

y^^l^^ rub." Any Christian, anycommunity can

lr'>, have a revival if they are willing to pay the price; in other

words, take up the cross and bear it. Thereligion of Jesus Christ involves cross-bearing. There is something in human natureadverse to the cross ; this somethmg must beconquered, the cross must be borne.

* * * *

Unfortunately, we have come upon a timewhen a very large percent of church mem

bers want a Christianity without a Christ.They do not want to pay the price of separation froni the world, or .any sort of reproach because of their devotion to Christ.They fear to enter the realm of the supernatural lest they be looked upon as a "peculiar people."

* * * *

You hear people talk about the need of a

revival, at the same time, speaking as if itwere some sort oif mysterious, difficult, almost incomprehensible, thing. It is not atall. In order to have a revival there mustbe earnest prayer, longings for the refreshing of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of God'speople. Fasting and prayer are a wonderfulmeans of grace. The faithful proclamationof the word of God will work wonders in almost any community in this nation.

* * * *

We must not lose sight of the fact that theHoly Ghost�^an all-powerful, invisible Person�^is in our midst. He endues men andwomen with power. He teaches them how towar against Satan and sin. He gives themjoyful testimony in invitation, exhortationand entreaty; but there is a cross involvedin it all. One who enters into the work of

bringing about a revival must be willing tobe rebuffed, ridiculed, perhaps insulted. Suchhas been the portion of this writer on many

occasions, most always leading to victoryover the enemy.

* * * *

The sad fact is, we have too many preachers and people who are not willing to bearthe cross, to separate themselves from the

worldly; to joyfully suffer reproach forChrist's sake; to humbly, but bravely, witness to the inward assurance of the HolyGhost that they are saved from sin. Wehave so many people who are not at allashamed to witness that they do sin ; churchpeople, mark you ; that they do not expect tobe saved from sin. They know nothing ofthe mighty power of our crucified and risen

Redeemer, and yet, they are by no means be

yond the reach of the gospel, and the possibility of a glorious salvation. But it will takesome heroic methods to awaken them. Some

body must be willing to take up the cross, to

trample on timidity, 'fear, and every formof .cowardice and press the work of a holyenthusiasm to reach and awaken the souls oftheir fellowbeings.

OUR TEMPERANCE ISSUE.This will be a thrilling, startling, interest

ing, illuminating issue of The PentecostalHerald. We have the latest news from theoutstanding leaders of the Prohibition forces,such as Dr. Clarence True Wilson, of Washington, D. C, Hon. Arthur Capper, of Kansas,Who will give us an article on "ProhibitionCan Be Enforced." Rev. E. A. Hunter willgive us a strong article on "Ten Years ofNational Prohibition." Evangeline Booth willgive some of her observations as to what Prohibition has done for this country. J. C. Penny, merchant and philanthropist, will give us

something on the "Economic Results of Prohibition." These are but a few of the splendid articles which we shall treat our readersto in our special Temperance Issue.Dr. Clarence True Wilson recently debated

the question of Prohibition with Clarence Dar-row, noted criminal lawyer, and we shall givethe gist of Dr. Wilson's reply to Darrow, andleave the reader to decide what shape he lefthim in.Josephus Daniels will have an article on

"Prohibition No Experiment."Our Editor will have his pages bristling with

pithy, virile, interesting matter.Commissioner Brengle will have an article

on "Do Not Be Deceived by Wet Propaganda."There wUi .he. other items ful.ly as interestingand illuminating.What we want is for our readers to help

scatter this Prohibition Issue into every nookand corner of this nation. With our thousandsof readers, all of whom are red-hot for the en-

forcemient of our prohibition laws, we ought toget this issue into thousands of homes. Theway to do it is for each one who reads theselines to send an order for as many copies as

possible, at 2 cents each. It was claimed thatThe Pentecostal Herald helped to carry theSouth in the presidential election of 1928. Rally to it at this time, and help to create publicOPINION against the liquor traffic, that theenemies of all that is good would foist uponus. Don't wait until you get your Herald, toorder.- We must know before the paper is offthe press to provide for the extra copies youdesire.Send today, enclosing 2 cents for each copy.

Order at least 50�more if possible.

were quite ashamed to be seen kneeling by a

weeping penitent, full of pride and conceit.They would almost rather die and be lostthan to take up the humiliating, crucifyingcross of Christ and go out after their lostfellowbeings. We have been amazed manytimes at the large number of church mem

bers in a congregation who would not do

anything to help in the winning of lost souls.They are so in love with self, so shut up intheir pride, so absolutely opposed to any

thing that might interfere with their popularity, or subject them to the mockery andridicule of the pleasure-loving wicked, thatthey will do nothing. They will not go outand bring a sinner to a revival ; they will notreach the hand of kindly greeting to a stranger in the church ; they will not kneel besidethe weeping penitent; they will not join in

praise with a regenerated soul. How sadlydead they are, how wrapped up in their ownconceit. What a fearful judgment day awaits

Yes, we can have revivals. Get a little

group of people who are not only willing, butwho will joyfully bear the cross of Christ;

who are neither afraid or ashamed to come

together in the church, to sing, to pray, topreach, to exhort, to visit their neighbors Intheir homes, invite them to the revival, to gofor them in their automobiles and bring themin; to throw off their fear, to trample theirpride under foot, to bear the cross of Christ.One of the blessed features of the baptismwith the Holy Ghost in sanctifying power is,that it gives those who find this pearl ofgreat price an opportunity to bear the cross,to suffer a little reproach for Jesus' sake.The disciples of our Lord rejoiced that theywere counted worthy to be beaten for theirRedeemer's sake. In the Boxer War thousands of Chinese Christians met their butch-erers with dauntless Christian courage, andwere murdered, with steadfast faith in our

Lord. What are we doing! What are we

suffering ! What price are we paying ! Listento the words of our blessed Lord : "If anyman will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me."

Text: "The carnalmind is enmity againstGod: for it is not subjectto the law of God, neither indeed can be. Sothen they that are in theflesh cannot please God.But ye are not in theflesh, but in the Spirit,of so be that the Spiritof God dwell in you."Rom. 8:7-9.

What is the carnal mind, which the apostle says is "enmity against God?" It willbe helpful to us in answering this questionto notice the various names given in theScriptures to this something in human na

ture out of harmony with all good, and atwar with God. In Rom. 6:6, it is called "ourold man." In the same verse, it is referredto as "the body of sin." In Rom. 7 :20, it ismentioned as "sin that dwelleth in me." Frequently it is called the "flesh."It must be understood that the word flesh

here does not refer to the meat on our bones ;the body in which we live. The apostle was

addressing living beings and he says, "Butye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit." Itwill be seen at once that the term flesh re

fers to the carnal nature�the indwelling sin,,and not to the physical body.Let us bear in mind that all references to

the "old man," the "body of sin," "indwellingsin," the "carnal mind," and sinful flesh re

fer to one and the same thing, and that thingis our inherent sinful nature which makesus prone to wander from God, to violate hislaw, to go into rebellion against him.

ASBURY MEN AND WOMEN IN THE MISSION FIELDS.Rev. G. W. Ridout D.D., Corresponding Editor.

It is a very significant factthat the College and MissionFields have been very closelyconnected from the very first.The American Missionary

Movement owes a great deal toAndover and that HaystackPrayer Meeting. What a mighty

influence in the realm of missionary thinkingand activity went out from the CambridgeSeven�those young men�graduates fromCambridge University who went out to Chinain the eighties?It was a group of Yale men who started

missions in Hawaii. I can still hear the cryof one of them asking for more workers anddescribing the kind of men the field needed.His words were : "We want men and women

who have souls, who are crucified to theworld and the world to them, who have theireyes and their hearts fixed on the glory ofGod in the salvation of the heathen ; who willbe willing to sacrifice every interest butChrist's ; who will cheerfully, and constantlylabor to promote his cause."Dr. A. J. Gordon in his wonderful book

"The Holy Spirit," gives a unique setting�forth of the Holy Spirit in Missions in Acts13:15, U.(1) "In the selection of missionaries:

'The Holy Ghost said. Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I havecalled them.' (13:2).

(2) "In their thrusting forth into thefield : 'So they, being sent forth by the HolyGhost, departed unto Seleucia' (13:4).

(3) "In empowering them to speak: 'ThenSaul, who also is called Paul, filled with theHoly Ghost, said' (13:9).

(4) "In sustaining them in persecution:'And the disciples were filled with joy andwith the Holy Ghost' (13 :52) .

(5) "In setting the divine seal upon theirministry among the Gentiles : 'And God,which icnoweth the hearts, bare them wit

ness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as hedid unto us' (15 :8) .

(6) "In counseling in difficult questions oifmissionary policy: 'It seemed good to the

Holy Ghost and to us' (15:28).(7) "In restraining the missionaries from

entering into fields not yet appointed by theLord: They 'were forbidden of the Hoi'sGhost to preach the gospel in Asia. . . Theyassayed to go into Bithynia but the Spiritsuffered them not.'" (16:6,-7).A young minister came back recently from

a tour of India with a good illustration. Heoverheard an Indian land-owner asking a

British irrigation engineer if a certain pieceof farm land could ever be made profitable.The engineer responded�"Yes, I can makeit bear enormous crops, provided it lies lowenough."There are a great many Christian workers

and missionaries whose lack of fruitage is

explained by saying they don't lie lowenough."Lower and lower, dear Lord, at Thy ifeet,Seeking Thy Spirit, Thy mercy so sweet ;Down in our need, blessed Master, we fallLower and lower: be Thou all in all.

"Lower and lower, down at Thy Cross,All the world's treasures counting but

dross ;Down at Thy /eet, blessed Savior, we fall,ij0wer, still lower, Christ all in all."

Asbury College has never striven to com

pete with the big Colleges and Universitiesof the land touching the matter of numbersand equipment and money. Holiness Colleges will never count their students by thethousands. Asbury has aspired more toteach her students to lie low at the feet ofJesus so that they might hear his voice andwhen he calls, listen and obey. I am quitesure those students who offered themselves

to the mission fields and who have achievedresults there have been those whose souls'ambitions have been to lie low and find inChrist their all in all�both at home andabroad.Meredith has given in poetical language a

very beautiful thought on Influence.

"No stream from its source flows seaward,how lonely soever its course,

But that some land is gladden'd.No star ever rose and set without influence

somewhere.Who knows what earth needs from earth's

lowest creature?No life can be pure in its purpose and

strong in its strife,And all life not be purer and stronger

thereby."Streams of influence have flowed out from

Asbury College during the last thirty yearsand more which have gladdened many lands.Africa, South America, India, China, Japan,Korea, etc., have been blessed by them. During our visit to the mission fields around theworld we have met many Asbury men andwomen and I have been so happy to knowthat they have not gone after some other gospel since leaving Asbury, but ring true intheir distant fields. I like to think that themajority of Asbury missionaries in this ageof perilous doubt and modernism can saypersonally for themselves :

"When the anchors that faith had cast.Are dragging in the gale;

I am quietly holding fastTo the things that cannot fail."

In fact, Asbury missionaries are generallyknown for the full and vigorous gospel theystand for ; and I have met not a few leadersin Mission fields who would rather have theirrecruits from Asbury College than from anyschool in the land.My own work and experience in Mission

fields, let me say, was widened and extendedto no small degree by the fact that I belonged to the Asbury Faculty ; doors opened widefor our messages in China, Japan, Korea, theStraits Settlements, India, Egypt, Palestine,and everywhere Asbury College was wellknown and her type of missionaries approved and endorsed.Augustine says in the City of God, "God

makes holy souls his friends and noiselesslyinforms them of his purpose." This is no

tably true of those working in the missionfields, and I am quite sure that Asbury as a

holiness school has been a place where manyhave had God noiselessly inform them of hispurpose for their lives and it has meant forthem Africa or India or China or someother far away field.When I was on the way to Prague in

Czchesolovakia I fully expected to meet withone of my former students, Alex J. Read andhis wife, who had been sent out to Prague bythe M. E. Church, South. Brother Readhad begun a fine piece of work at Prague ; hewas preaching every Sunday at St. Martinsin the Wall to an English-speaking congregation ; he was learning the language and soonwould be able to do some preaching in theSlav language ; he was laying the foundationfor a fine evangelistic ministry, but something happened�Bishop Cannon wanted aman to take to Africa for special evangelisticwork and he came to Prague and carried offBrother Read and wife. One of the presiding elders. Rev. Joseph Dobes, and Mrs.Dobes, told me how they wept tears over thatchange. They remonstrated with BishopCannon. They said : "We cannot spare Bro.Read. Prague needs him, the Conferenceneeds him here." Bishop Cannon's replywas: "If Brother Read was not wanted somuch and was not such a valuable man Iwould not want him for Africa." So to

Africa he went and he has written me of thevast field he has over there for evangelisticwork and ministry.When I was in India I hoped to meet Dr.

E. Stanley Jones, but failed. In one or twoinstances he preceded me in some city in hismeetings for the non-christian groups. Wherever I went in India�and we travelled over5,000 miles there�we heard of the extraordinary work Stanley Jones was doing in India. No man in the history of missions thereever had such hearings from Hindoos andMoslems as he has had, and perhaps no manever preached and interpreted Christ to Moslem and Hindoo crowds as he has done. Hisbooks have influenced the thinking of all nations and his last book on Pentecost is perhaps the most powerful of them all. In hisstudent days at Asbury College Stanley Joneshad certain religious experiences and principles burned into him which never got burntout. The flame started there, like the burning bush of Moses' day, has burnt on but thebush has never been consumed.Our schedule in India was so full that we

found it impossible to get to Calcutta�Bishop Fisher's territory. We were invitedto his conference but it was impossible to ac

cept. Suffice to say that Bishop Fisher wentfrom Asbury College to India and there laidthe foundations of a missionary career whichall through has been phenomenal. As Bishop, he has been called to administer a mostimportant section of Indian work and he hasbecome known the world over for his missionary vision.The last man to talk to us as we left Bom

bay for Egypt was Rev. A. N. Warner, ofBombay. Here is another Asbury man loaded down with responsibility and work�enough to stagger an average minister. AsWarner drove us around Bombay that morning and showed us place after place of missionary work carried on by the Methodistsin that great city, as he pointed out thestrategic centers our church occupied andtalked of the possibilities for services, andthen spoke of the limitations they had tosuffer from in the work because of lack ofmen and supplies, it made me feel like getting under the burden with this missionaryand help him carry on. As District Superintendent, he has all this work under his direction, and as the home board is very sparingin its distribution of funds for India he has,in addition to all his other work, to carry ona big correspondence among home people in.order to finance his numerous Bombay activities. I remember when preaching at Nag-pur, India, how much that wonderful missionary plant was due to Warner. It was a

wilderness place till he took hold of it, raised .

the funds in America and built splendidschools there in which hundreds of Indiangirls and boys are not only getting schooling, but are being saved and brought upChristians.The Bishop Taylor Memorial Church is

under Brother Warner and he was so desirous of securing a young preacher fromAmerica to take hold of that English-speaking congregation and run it on good, sound,solid, evangelical lines, and make it a centerof religious activities that would count muchin the lives of people young and old whomake that church their spiritual home. Nobetter place, I thought, to find the youngpreacher for that church than from amongAsbury graduates.

_

When preaching in China I met a lady missionary who was a graduate of one of thelarge Church Colleges of U. S. A. She was

deeply interested in our message on full salvation and sought the experience and, byfaith, entered into the fulness of the Spirit.This brought her a new vision of her work.She deplored the fact of not having had anysuccess in soul winning and she said to us,

"Why, when I went through college we were

never given any training on that subject."How true it is! So many even go to themission fields who have had no training or

experience in soul saving. Asbury is different!

Its students know what Revivals ofReligion are; they know about soul savingand have evangelism, not only taught them.

State Organizations as a Means of Spreading Scriptural Holiness.

AT ANNUAL MEETING OF THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE PROMOTION OF HOLI

NESS, UPLAND, IND.,April 28 to May 5, 1930.

Friends and Brethren :�

f^^^M OMETIME ago a statement wasmade that the aim of the Na-

hr^ik^ tional Association for the Pro-

�^^^r\ motion of Holiness would be^Ly Q^�^A "Every State be organized as a

State Association for the Promotion of Holiness and every County in ev

ery State organized as County Holiness Associations." The Michigan Association was

organized just prior to the time the abovestatement was made. Though we are veryyoung in the work of organized Holiness we

are glad to say that the LfOrd has seemed tobless every effort put forth in this direction.Very recently a report came to the writer

of an organization being perfected for theState of Kentucky. For this we truly praisethe Lord. Not more than fourteen Statesare organized at the present time, but at theoutset we shall say that we believe that everyState can and should be organized for thisvaliant work and service.A caution as to organizations. New Or-

ganizatins are generally more effective wherethey are the most simple; we mean to say,have only a few officers and a few committees. Have the Executive Committee live inas small a geographical area as possible so

that the work of the Association can be car

ried on more easily during the interim ofthe Annual Meeting.There are doubtless different plans being

carried on by the various State Associations,but let the writer mention a few things thatwould seem to be advisable. We will consider them as By-Products of the State Association.

BY-PRODUCTS.1. The Anrmal Meeting.

Of course, there is the Annual Meeting, whenso far as possible, all Auxiliary Organizations, as well as individual believers in Holiness, gather for a great Convention of atleast one to three days. A program packedfull of good things, papers and discussionson vital and related themes concerning the

spreading of Scriptural Holiness, will proveto be an inducement for many to attend.Minimize the preaching ; let that be done at

Camp Meetings and in the various churches.Call in some of the strongest workers available: these outstanding leaders will alwaysmake a valuable contribution, though there

may be an added expense connected with it.There will be the usual Annual reports, in

written form, from the officers of the Asso

ciation; there should also be a report presented from every Auxiliary Association.These latter reports will prove to be a finestimulant to every Auxiliary and may alsoinduce the Holiness people from other counties to desire an organization in their coun

ties. Then, too, let the Council members beelected at this time; applications for mem

bership in the State Association will also bevoted upon. Make the business session as

brief as possible yet interesting to all present.2. Conventions.Another By-Product will be the Conven

tions held during the year. The geographyof a State needs to be studied. Where do Holiness people live? Where are there some

Holiness preachers ? These can usually be a

Rev. Lloyd M. Blakely.nucleus for Conventions and possibly laterfor the organization of Local or County Associations. Where possible and when advisable, Mid-Year Conventions can profitably beheld. These should be planned with a few oforganizing the county in which the Convention has been held and this plan followeduntil all counties in the State have been or

ganized. Gather as many of the people inthe locality as you can for a great Convention, perhaps from two or three adjoiningcounties, and the Christian fellowship thatwill result, aside from the organizations thatmay be perfected, will repay many timesover for any and every effort put forth.

On these Convention programs use as

many of the local Ministers as possible ; possibly some laymen, too. It would usually bewise to have the State President, or some

other State Organizer, present. Perhapsthe President from some adjoining Statecould serve acceptably. Have at least one

strong "outside" preacher. He will proveto be a valuable asset and will draw a largehearing.

3. County Associations.Naturally the next By-Product will be the

formation of County Associations. In theseorganizations the largest permanent returnsfrom the effort of the State Association willbe found. To know that through the workof the State Association these County Associations are holding meetings at stated andregular times during the year ; that at theseall-day-meetings souls are being converted,backsliders are being reclaimed, and believers are being sanctified wholly; that peopleare meeting together in the finest spirit ofco-operation and Christian fellowship ; theseare some of the happy returns from the workof organizing County Holiness Associations.When the County Association has been de

cided upon, leave as simple an organizationas possible. Secure as many charter mem

bers for the County as you can. Leave itwithout financial embarrassment. Let theState bear the expense for the Conventionand organization of the County.

4. Christian Unity.Another By-Product of the State Associa

tion is the closer unity among denominationsthat is secured through Conventions and theorganization of County Associations. Thewriter has the feeling that a greater unityshould exist among professors of Holiness.Denominational and racial lines should herebe laid low. Let me illustrate with a simplestory :�"In a certain section of this countrylived two men, not in the days of the feudalsystem, but within recent years. Each ofthese men confided in a mutual ifriend thathe was waiting for a chance to kill the otherbecause he was afraid of him. When thismutual friend suggested that they meet inhis presence unarmed, they both agreed. Theresult was that as this mutual friend left thecabin where they had met, these neighbors,an hour before bitter enemies, stood witharms around each other arranging for a

hunting trip. The writer has the humblerfeeling that many of the misunderstandingsbetween Holiness groups can and would bebroken down if we came to understand eachother better.Jesus once referred to 'the weightier mat

ters of the law, judgment, mercy, faith:these ought ye to have done." Holiness is notso much a matter of dress prescriptions or

restrictions, ritual observances, and denominational affiliation as it is a condition of

heart that will help us to dwell in peace even

with those with whom we do not agree inminor detail. So long as there is no teachingthat would throw one off on a spiritual tangent to the harm of his soul standing withGod, let us learn to 'dwell together in unity.'Rather, to follow the figure in the illus

tration, when we are not afraid of each other, the writer's personal observation hasbeen that where a County Association hasbegun to function as it ought with monthlymeetings, inviting the preachers of the County or some outsiders to be the preachers forthe day, and where this has continued, therehas been a growing fellowship and unity thathas enriched all of their lives. To hear a

Mennonite preaching in a Methodist pulpitand a Nazarene in a Pilgrim Holiness pulpitwith, possibly a Free Methodist leading thesong service has cheered the heart of thewriter as he has felt that these are evidencesof a breaking down of former misunderstandings and questionings. We have thehumble conviction that where the heart hasbeen made pure and clean many of thetangled webs of misunderstandings, bickerings, discord, doubt, strife and division 'willbe broken down and we will be able to com

mune and worship at a common Mercy Seat.5. Camp Meetings.Another By-Product of the State Associa

tion is the Camp Meetings that can be heldduring the year. Of course in the northernpart of our country the Camp Meetings mustbe held during the summer months. Butwhat State Association is there that cannothave at least one Camp Meeting? Thesecamps may not be large; they need not beexpensive; they may not have any ground,equipment or buildings: perhaps a tent canbe pitched, a brush arbor built or some building on a Fair ground or pavilion in some

City Park can be secured in which the meeting can be held. The experience of the writer has been that these camps, even whenheld in counties where Holiness has not beenpreached to any great extent, will, however,practically pay their own way so that theState Association need not be embarrassedwith a great expense. Two preachers, witha singer and a pianist who can, perhaps, besupplied locally, and a children's worker,who sometimes could be the wife of one ofthe preachers, would be all the workers nec

essary. Storm the forces of sin for ten days ;organize the group if possible; follow themup with papers, correspondence and in otherhelpful ways during the year and see howthey will grow before the time for the nextcamp arrives. If this could be done in thirtyStates in the Union, this writer ventures thestatement that there would be upwards offifty conversions in each camp: that wouldbe 1500 souls won to God. Would this pay''Of course the State Association should re

tain control and supervision of these campsfor many years�perhaps indefinitely. Thiswould prevent a lack of interest or a changing constituency from allowing a j-ear topass without holding a camp meeting.

6. Monthly Meetiyigs of County Associations.

But there is still another B\^-Product inthe form of Monthly-All-Day-Meetings ofthe County Associations. These are an important factor in keeping alive the seed ofHoliness that has been planted in the variouscommunities throughout the State. No As-

BUD ROBINSON'S MONTHLY LETTER.^Sa^S^ 0 the Saints that are scattered

K^^yP^^ abroad throughout this great|\^�Vj^ nation, who read The Pente-

COSTAL Herald, I greet you thisIQ^^^^ week with a heart that I feel

has been touched by the mightyhand of our God. Our Theme this week willbe Salvation. As I read, think, and see theconditions of the people of this great nationI am convinced that Salvation is the greatest thing that mortal man ever heard of, andthat it is the greatest thing that is known toman. While that is true, I am convincedthat sin is the most fearful and awful thingthat man has ever heard of, or ever couldknow about. Anything that will rob a man

of his soul, and heaven, then populate Hellwith him, is the most awful thing in existence.

In Ezekiel 18 :4, we read, "Behold, all soulsare mine; as the soul of the father, so alsothe soul of the son is mine: the soul that sin-neth, it shall die." Now dear reader, in spiteof the soap peddlers with A. M. at one end oftheir names and D. D. at the other end, theday will come when God is going to cut offboth ends, and if there is no fire in the middle that fellow will be relegated to the scrap-pile.Again in E-zekiel 18:20, we read: "The

soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shallnot bear the iniquity of the father, neithershall the father bear the iniquity of the son ;the righteousness of the righteous shall beupon him, and the wickedness of the wickedshall be upon him." Here we see the realcondition that we will all have to face at the

�great Judgment Day. At that day no man

can shift the responsibility; we each andevery one must appear before the judgmentseat of Christ, that every one may receive thethings done in his body, whether it be goodor bad. 2 Cor. 5 :10. The reader will see inthe above text the danger of the human soul.Now we will turn to Matthew 16 :26, and

see the value of the soul. "For what is a

man profited, if he shall gain the wholeworld, and lose his own soul? or what shalla man give in exchange for his soul?" Nowbeloved reader, we have given you the dangerof the soul, and the value of the soul fromthe Book. The next thing I want you to see

is' that the only hope of you ever getting to

heaven is in the salvation of your soul. Pleasesee Heb. 2:3: "How shall we escape, if we

neglect so great salvation." We have al

ready stated that salvation was the greatestthing that man ever heard tell of, because itis the only thing that man ever heard of thatoffered him a remedy for sin. To deny sin isnot a remedy. To deny hell is not a

remedy for sin. To say that a sinneris too good to be damned is not a

remedy; and to say that God is too good to

damn a sinner is not a remedy. We read inLuke 13:3, that, "Except ye repent, ye shallall likewise perish." I know that God is goodand loving and merciful, but if you walk over

toward a hot stove and stick your hand to it

God will let it burn off ; for God has told youto keep your hand out of the fire. God has

given us judgment and feeling. So we know

better than to stick our hand into the fire.Salvation is great because God is the Au

thor of it. It is not human made. It is not

a plan that was devised by man. None butGod could have provided the salvation of a

man's soul. Salvation is supernatural. Ev

ery soul that was ever born again proves thatGod is still working miracles. The man thatdenies that God can work a miracle is theman that was never born again. He is stilldown on the plane of the natural man, andnot upon the plane of the supernatural. Allthe brains of the world could not forgive a

sinner of his sins ; and all the power that isknown to the human family could not regenerate a sinner.Salvation is great because of its cost. It

cost God his only begotten Son,. It costHeaven its brightest jewel, and it cost Christevery drop of his most precious blood. Whata pity that a man will neglect this great salvation and try to satisfy his soul on the slushof this poor old sin-cursed world. Just thinkof a man made in the image of God, andwithin his bosom he carries a soul that willlive as long as God lives, yet he is trying to

satisfy his soul on such junk as gold and silver, and oil wells and gold mineg, race horsesand prize fights, and all such stuff.Salvation is great because it is threefold.

The reason of that is found in the fact thatsin is threefold. You might understand itbetter to put it in this light : We have inbredsin and outbroken sin ; then the awful effectof sin, and God is so good and so wise and so

loving that he provided a threefold remedy.It takes the new birth to remove outbrokensins ; it takes the Baptism with the HolyGhost to remove inbred sin, and then youwill have to be glorified to remove the fearfuland awful effect of sin on your spirit andsoul and body.

Some good people have told me that theycould not agree with me on the above statements. Maybe this will help you to see thefacts as I see them. Here is a man who gotdrunk and in a drunken fight the bartenderthrew a beer bottle across the counter athim and knocked out one of his eyes. Several years later, he was beautifully converted,but his eye was still gone. A few years wentby and he got into a camp meeting and was

gloriously sanctified, and behold, his eye was

still gone. A year after he was sanctified hedied shouting and went to his home in glory,but no thinking man can believe that he isto spend eternity in Heaven with one eyegone. Now beloved, you just think for a mo

ment if you were to die and go to Heavenand meet that fellow and he was still a one-

eyed man you would be disappointed. No,beloved. Heaven has no one-eyed men and no

one-legged men. In the morning of the res

urrection, each man will receive back themembers of his body that he lost down herethrough the awful power of sin.At a glance we see that Salvation is three

fold and must be, because of our threefoldneed. Pardon for the guilty is great, andcleansing for the believer is great, but we

must reach that stage where the blessed Lordsaid that this "mortal shall put on immortality." As grand and as glorious as justification is and as wonderful as sanctification is,neither of them is glorification. A salvationfrom all sin for all men is God's plan forfallen man. In the fall of man he went downin a threefold sense. Anger is a disease ofthe spirit side of man, while ignorance is a

disease of the mental man. While smallpoxis a disease of the physical man, smallpox i�not anger, and anger is not ignoraace, andignorance is not smallpox. In spite of theteaching of some folks the above facts are

true.Again, when you think of the extent of

salvation it becomes more wonderful. Thinkfor a moment of the new birth. How Godcan touch a man that is dead in trespassesand in sin and make him alive, is a miraclebecause it takes the supernatural power ofGod to do it. We read that in the new birththat we were translated out of the kingdomof darkness into the kingdom of light. SeeCol. 1:13. The reader will agree with me

that the above fact is one of the marks of thegreatness of our salvation.Another mark of greatness is found in

Matt. 3 :11 : "We are baptized with the HolyGhost and with fire." In this connection thewriter says that God will burn up the chaffand will gather the wheat into his garner.Another mark of the greatness of our salvation is seen in Eph. 5 :18 : "And be not drunkwith wine, wherein is excess, but be filledwith the Spirit." No man can think of a

more desirable life than a Spirit-filled life.That brings to our mind another wonderfultext. Gal. 5:18: "But if ye be led of theSpirit ye are not under the law." The readerwill notice in the three above quotations thatwe are baptized with the Spirit, then filledwith the Spirit, then led by the Spirit. Nochurch member can testify that the blessedHoly Ghost led him to the ballroom, or thegambling-house, or to the Sunday baseball,or to the horse race, or even to the tobaccofactory. Every trip that is made to suchplaces the church member leaves the blessedHoly Ghost at home when he starts.Here is another mark of the greatness of

our salvation. In Isa. 41:10: "Fear thounot; for I am with thee: be not dismayed:for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee;yea, I will help thee ; yea, I will uphold theewith the right hand of my righteousness."Beloved reader, just think of these four greatfacts in the salvation of your precious, immortal soul. First, baptized with the Spirit.Second, filled with the Spirit. Third, led bythe Spirit. Fourth, God's hand under youholding you up.Another mark of the greatness of our sal

vation is seen in the 36th Psalm, 7, 8: "Howexcellent is thy lovingkindness, O God ; therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings. They shall beabundantly satisfied with the fatness of thyhouse ; and thou shalt make them drink ofthe river of thy pleasures.Dear reader, will you take time to run

over this' last bill of fare. I want you to see

eight marks of the greatness of your salvation : Baptized with the Spirit, filled with theSpirit, led by the Spirit, God's right hand un

der you. Next, notice under God's wings;next, in a house of fat things; next, withabundance of satisfaction ; next, drinking outof a river of pleasure. Beloved, doesn't itlook like that if you had these eight scriptural facts fulfilled in your heart and lifethat you would not have to stroll down townon a dark, rainy night to buy a quarter'sworth of fun from the Devil?Let's clinch the nail with these two other

facts. See Zechariah 2:5: "For I, saith theLord, will be unto her a wall of fire roundabout, and will be the glory in the midst ofher." Add to this wonderful bill of farePsalm 32:8: "I will instruct thee and teachthee in the way which thou shall go: I willguide thee with mine eye." Here it is boileddown for you, dear reader�baptized withthe Spirit, filled with the Spirit, led by theSpirit, upheld by his right hajid, under hiswings, in a house of fat things, with an

abundance of satisfaction, drinking out of a

river of pleasure, a wall of fire around aboutyou, guided with his eye. May the richestblessings of Heaven rest upon you, is myprayer.

In perfect love and all for Jesus.Bud Robinson.

"WKy I Send my Son, or Daughter,to Asbury�The Parents Speak�

A Symposium.W. Brandt Hughes, Dean of Asbury College.0000000000000000000�}OCXXXX>OCXX}000000

OiMETIME. ago we sent out thefollowing letter to the parentsof our Asbury College students :

"I trust that you will pardonthe formality of this communication, but the size of the group

I wish to reach precludes the use of personalletter to the parents of each student."We have been so ever conscious that back

of the wonderful life that is lent us ifbr a

few short years and with whom it is such a

glorious privilege to associate in the relationof teacher and student and have a part inpreparing them for their life work; back ofthis there is another group, praying for us,working, sacrificing, and giving of themselves in all the great love of parent forchild; helping us in what we are undertaking here."When a student comes to Asbury College,

passing many fine colleges on the way, we

are always sure that there was a special reason for his coming. In view of this I am

undertaking the preparation of a symposiumon the subject, 'Why I sent my son (ordaughter) to Asbury.' If you will kindlygive me in a few words your answer to the

question it will be greatly appreciated."The replies are so sincerely and eloquently

expressed that we shall make no attempt toedit them but will quote from them word forword. The limits of this article will not permit the use of but a very small number andwe must of necessity omit many most excellent ones and in many cases give but a partof the reply. I believe the general trend can

be most succinctly and adequately expressedin the reply of Dean F. H. Larabee of our

Seminary whose two children were educatedat Asbury. He says, "Pre-eminently for therteligious instruction and influence." The ifbl-

lowing are characteristic of the replies re

ceived :

"I think it is the safest, best and most economical school you can send to, especially so

because you lay special emphasis on education of the heart first."�Wm. Jordan, Miss."We felt that their faith in the Word of

God would not be undermined there."�A. R.

Morford, Ore."Because there is no other place compara

ble. 'Safety first'�in education and religion."�C. L. Hawkins, Ky."Because it is distinctly a Christian college

�not in name only�^but in teaching, practice, faith, and living."�Mr. and Mrs. Geo.

"Because the pure Gospel is taught, andJesus is honored and glorified."�J. A. Ew-

ing, Ga. , j�

"Because in Asbury the mental and physical phases of school life, while well providedfor, are second to the spiritual culture given.Pre-eminent are spiritual things."�L. W.

Thomas, Ky."Because you make spiritual culture pri

mary, mental culture secondary and then

physical culture."�H. C. Maitland, Kan."Because of personal knowledge of high

spiritual standards and fine social environments along with strong scholastic leader

ship."�E. S. Taylor, 111."That with her 'wisdom she get under

standing' of God's Holy Word."�FrankRosekelly, Ohio."First: Because it upholds the Bible

standard of real salvation of Holiness ofheart and life, and its professors, whilelearned men, have that simple, childlike faithin God and in his Word, as revealed to man

kind in the Holy Bible."Second: Because they practice what they

preach by exalting Christ, stressing conver

sion, and sanctification as a second work of

A SAMPLE OF WHAT YOU MAY DO.In a letter from a good woman who sent us

the subscription of a young man for TheHerald, she has this to say:"I feel you should know of a few of the good

things you are accomplishing with your wonderful paper."Last fall, on your special offer, I sent the

paper to a friend in a distant city, and havejust received a letter from her saying that herhusband had given his heart to God and is trying to do as he would have him do. She said,'I think The Herald that you sent to us hashad a lot to do with his coming to Christ.'"Another friend whom we sent The Herald

to was here last evening and said, 'It was thebest paper published, for it was real spiritualfood.' So while the praises were still freshin my mind, thought you should hear of it."My dear reader, this is one instance of what

may be accomplished by using a little time andmoney to send The Herald into homes thatneed it just as much as these homes into whichthis sister sent it. May this not encourageyou to "Gk> and do likewise," trusting in Godto water the seed that you plant with his gracious blessing upon your work of faith andlabor of love. Sincerely yours,

Mrs. H. C. Morrison.

mind as we think of our daughter under allof the good and wholesome influences whichobtain at Asbury College."�C. L. Shepard,Georgia."Two outstanding reasons : The live spir

� "My son wanted to study for the ministry,and I knew of no other college equal to Asbury College in preparing him for this work,so I advised him to go to this school."�C. C.Laine, Va."Because it is strong on the fundamentals

and holiness, and has a world wide vision."�

and infidelity, taught in many schools andcolleges."�Dr. Geo. E. Shattuck, Pa."Because I believe the Bible is taught in all

of its fullness, and for the Christian influence thrown around the child."�J. M. Taylor, Ky."Because of the deeply spiritual influence

that would surround her life daily."�Mrs.B. H. Thomas, Ga."To be in a Holiness School free from de

expressions from the parents of our students.Teachers lecture, students recite, and makeeloquent speeches, but the parents who makethe sacrifice and bear the brunt of the burdento make college education possible are so seldom heard.To the parents who have helped us in the

preparation of this paper we express our sincere thanks for your hearty co-operation.May the Lord richly bless you and yours.Pray for us that we may never depart oneiota from the high spiritual standards ofAsbury College.

Another Wet State Votes Dry.Last week we showed wherein the Literary

Digest's straw vote proved itself worthy ofthe name�a sort of man of straw�by showing how Pennsylvania Republicans had over

whelmingly nominated dry candidates, although that state had been prcinounceddrenchingly wet by the Digest. Now we areintroduced to another "wet" state that votesdry�Miss Florida. Two weeks ago when theDemocratic Primary was held in that stateMrs. Ruth Bryan Owen, daughter of the latebeloved William J. Bryan, won in her racefor Congress over an alleged wet by a vote ofabout four to one. And that in the face ofthe fact that the Digest's straw vote showedFlorida wet ! We knew that the part of thecountry in which we live is overwhelminglydry, but, frankly, that Literary Digest pollwas making us a little bit uneasy until theelections, such as those in Pennsylvania andFlorida, started ; then we were given peaceof mind again. The country's still dry, theLiterary Digest to the contrary notwithstanding.�Alabatna Christian Advocate.

"The Rock of Ages" is the only safe foundation upon which to build character.


STATE ORGANIZATIONS AS A MEANS(Continued from page 3)

sociation can keep alive without these or similar meetings. Our observation has beenthat where these meetings have been held themost regularly, the County or Local Association has not only been held together more

compactly but a growing interest has prevailed in the spreading of Scriptural Holiness. A live corp of officers in the CountyAssociation, probably President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer, if willing toput a little time, effort and prayer into thiswork in arranging for speakers, meetings,etc., can have monthly meetings where re

sults will be evident at practically everygathering. The officers could be the Program Committee. The regular dues togetherwith the offerings received at the meetingswould easily take care of all the expense incurred. Call a speaker for the day at fromnot too great a distance and together withsuch local talent as can be secured a splendidprogram can be provided, interest can bemaintained'and territory gained for the Master.Undoubtedly other By-Products could be

mentioned, but we believe these will be sufficient to prove to all of us the advisability ofhaving every State organized.Now let me mention a few Problems in

State Holiness Work.1. Publicity for all State Associations.While we truly appreciate the fact that all

of our Holiness papers, with only one exception�and that from a denominational standpoint,� have, from time to time, been willing to print reports of meetings as submitted ; yet we have wondered if there could notbe prepared through the agency of the National a Monthly or Quarterly Issue tellingof the work carried on by the various StateAssociations. If this could be accomplishedand proper distribution of these reportsmade it might encourage other States as wellas other counties to organize and conductregular meetings.

2. State Evangelists.There is another problem that ought to be

considered and yet we almost hesitate toraise the question for fear we may be misunderstood. You may feel that one who is a

Pastor, one who has had pastorates that haveextended over a period of several years each,ought not to be speaking in this fashion and

yet he has had a little experience. We are

doubtless all willing to concede the fact thatthere are Evangelists and Evangelists.We believe that every State Association

should have at least one Evangelist on thefield who is to plan for and hold Conventions,hold Revival Meetings where possible andvisit the County All-Day-Meetings quiteregularly ; that his salary and expenses shallbe paid by the State and all offerings takento be returned to the State Treasury. By thismethod the gospel of Full Salvation can becarried into many communities where theycould not afford to have an Evangelist. Thisis a real problem in the State as well as a

glorious opportunity.But we need to be very cautious. The im

pression that is made upon the average con

gregation and community by a visitingpreacher can be at once both sane and helpful ; on the contrary it can damage the workof the State Association and leave the com

munity in such a state that it will take yearsof careful pastoral work to overcome. Thechoice of an Evangelist is an essential matter. Not every Evangelist will be able to

meet the exacting requirements and demands. To say that he should be a man of

God, full of faith and of the Holy Ghost andone who lives a sacrificial life of prayer untilhe has a burden for souls that borders on a

real passion, would seem superfluous, yetthese qualifications are extremely necessaryfor the furthering of Holiness Evangelism.His preaching must be in the demonstrationand power of the Holy Ghost who alone is

able to make the biting truth sweet and con

victing.This writer read an article recently in

which occurred two words that have stuck tohis soul like a burr�CANNfcp SERMONS.We are wondering if the spreading of

Scriptural Holiness ought not to demandthat all of our preaching shall not be "froma barrel" but under the direction of the HolyGhost. While this is not a study in Homi-letics permit this writer to make a simplesuggestion to all Evangelists: Even thoughwe are far removed from New Years let us

all make the resolve to prepare at least onenew sermon each week. Beloved, we need tobe at our best when in the pulpit with God'struth on our lips and any sermon that is applicable today will doubtless need a completerevision for tomorrow.

3. Compromise.Still another problem. The heart of this

writer has been grieved more than once whensome friend, not trying to carry a bone,neither would he try to take one, has said,"Brother Blakely, tell me how a Holinesspreacher can be so much at home in and indemand with the popular churches andpreachers tainted with Modernism." Beloved, if this be true, my suggestion is timely. Iam personally afraid of the virus of compromise. Let us refrain from toning down inour preaching even when we are in pulpitswhere the truth of Full Salvation is neitherpopular nor preached. It may take some

courage to stand for our convictions whenwe know they will not be well received; butrather than weaken we can well afford totake the less popular course and remain trueto God and Holiness. Some may even needto die�even die out to popularity,�thatGod's cause suffer not. Some will alwaysleave, but we will also find that a considerable number of persons will be willing to takethe way of the despised few. Brother preachers, evangelists, friends, let us not compromise, tone down, nor trim the corners at anyplace ; but shall we not rather band togethernot to destroy the ancient landmarks whichour fathers have set: let us blaze new trailswhere necessary; let us hold up the bannerof Holiness at every point and place all alongthe line.We love the Holy Way.We believe in State Associations.We are thoroughly convinced that these

Associations can be made a real means ofHoliness Evangelism.To the task. Brothers ; God calls us to

spread his truth when he says, "Ye are mywitnesses."

Dont's For Preachers.Rev. F. Lincicome.

Don't attempt to substitute prayer forsweat. There are various things that con

tribute to the failure of preachers but laziness stands at the head of the list. A preacher may have been unfortunate in having toenter the ministry with an insufficient preparation; but, if he has good religion plus a

moderate amount of common sense withwhich to start, enough sweat and hard work,backed up with prayer and faith and holyliving, will put him over the hill. In thesemodern times it takes a lot of hard study,sole leather and gasoline, mixed with the regular indispensable qualities, to make a successful preacher.Don't invite the people to come and hear

you talk unless you have something to say. Aman has no right to ask the attendance andattention of people unless he has somethingto say. Therein lies his solitary justificationfor asking a hearing. If a preacher thinksa congregation should sit and listen to himfor more than an hour at a time simply because he is a preacher, he is badly mistaken.A man who does it may expect to be withouta congregation.The preacher has to think with so-uls. This

is quite different than thinking for souls.

Protestantism has dethroned that false god.The Protestant gospel is 'not put up in capsules, to be taken without thought, but is abook with open pages to be read and pondered. Men cannot weigh nothing. Apreacher is asked to give the minds of hishearers something to weigh.It is not enough for a preacher to talk

twice on Sunday. He must say somethingtwice on Sunday. What the people want isnot that what you say should be so voluble,but valuable. Blessed is that preacher ofwhom his people can say, If I miss Sunday Ishall miss something, for our pastor alwayssays something.Less study on how to say and more study

on what to say would rescue some of us fromthe cheapness and meanness of intellectualmillinery. It is shameful for a preacher whoought to be a man of iron and granite, to become a milliner, always dealing in laces,feathers, and ribbons.Coming before a congregation a preacher

may honorably say, "My brethren, I havesomething to say which appears to me to beworthy of your thought."The search for sermonic themes then will

be the masculine search for things that oughtto be said.Some may indulge in simple tracery upon

the window pane, but a preacher may not.Preaching is not witchery. Preaching isproviding souls with household necessities.So let us study what to say.

Taylor University CommencementFifty-five young people graduated at Tay

lor University this year, representing thirteen states. Several of them were to bepreachers or missionaries and virtually allhave a vital Christian testimony. The LegalHundred and Alumni meetings were markedwith unusual hopefulness. The Alumni began underwriting another hundred thousandof needed endowment for the institution. Onthe request of President John Paul, the LegalHundred was divided into ten committeeswith a chairman over each, and each com

mittee agreed to try to raise $30,000 to coverthe school's indebtedness represented in its$300,000 bond issue. Mr. T. H. Maytag, Mr.John D. Campbell, and other benefactors ofthe institution were present at the meeting.

Expositor's Treasury.This is a most remarkable book. It is well

bound, clear print, on good paper, a largebook. The pages contain double columns,and the book has 782 pages. It is a libraryin itself. The matter in it would fiill five orsix ordinary $1.25 volumes. It contains hundreds of outlines of sermons to children. Itought to be in the library of every minister.It is full of suggestions for children, youngpeople, and any audience to whom a ministermay be called to preach. I wish I could haveowned this book early in the history of mypastoral work, and it would have been won

derfully useful in my evangelistic work. Ido not believe a pastor, young, middle-age, orold, could invest a small sum of money betterthan in the purchase of this book.It is edited by Sir W. Robertson Nicoll,

M.A., LL.D., and Jane T. Stoddart. Theoriginal price was $6.00. Mr. Pritchard hassecured some copies from the publisherwhich can be had for $2.00. The pastor,evangelist, Sunday school worker, or thosewho engage in any sort of religious talk tochildren and young people, will never regretthe money necessary to secure a copy of thisbook. Order from The Pentecostal Publishing Co., Louisville, Ky. H. C. MORRISON.

If You Want SomethingConvincing on the tithe, something that tells you

what God says about it, send 10c and get a copy of"Will A Man Rob God." It is a splendid little bookto hand out to members of your church who do notbelieve in tithing. We will send one dozen for $1.00.

\^ednesday, July 9, 1930. THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD

GLEANINGS FROM THE EVANGELISTIC FIELD"UNTO THE UTTERMOST PARTS OF THE

EARTH."Dear Friends of The Herald Family:We have never been busier in our lives, than we

have since coming to Korea, and yet never happier.Our day's work begins every morning with a fiveo'clock service which is usually well attended bythe Korean Christians. During our weeks campaignin Seoul with the Oriental Missionary Society we

conducted from three to five services every day.We were invited to conduct services in SeverenceHospital for the patients, nurses and medical students. At various times we had charge of thechapel hour at the Chosen Christian College, TheEwha Methodist School for Girls, The Paja Methodist School for Boys and the School for Foreign Children. God blessed us in all these gatherings.Robert Chung our good friend and classmate at

Asbury met us in Seoul with a warm welcome. Wewere very glad to see him again and find him on

fire for God. He has been continually with us doingour interpreting. Everywhere we go we hear splendid reports concerning his work as an evangelist,and continually see many results of his labors. He

preaches the gospel of full salvation in the powerand unction of the Holy Spirit. He is called the"Billy Sunday" of Korea, and when he preaches hei.s as active in the pulpit as Mr. Sunday is on the

platform. Great crowds cpme out to hear him andhundreds are saved and sanctified under his ministry. He'has more calls than he can take care of,and missionaries of the leading denominations hereare continually calling for him to come and conductrevival campaigns.It was through the invitation of Robert Chung

that we are in the Orient today. When he came

back to America two years ago he plead with us tocome over and help him hold some evangelistic cam

paigns in Korea. He stirred our hearts as he painted the crying need of this people. At the time itseemed an impossibility for us to go, but we tookthe matter to the Lord in prayer asking him to opentlie door if he wanted us to go on this great mission.We hardly dreamed as we prayed that God was soon

to open the door and provide a way for us, but ourGod is able to do exceeding abundantly above all wecan ask or think. So we find ourselves busy in thisgreat harvest field. Brother Chung has preparedthe way for us, having arranged our schedule, and isworking hard to make these meetings a success.

While in America Brother Chung succeeded in

getting many of his friends to contribute towardhis work here in Korea. He is not supported by anydenomination over here, and the Koreans are so verypoor they cannot give him otferings large enough tosustain him and his family, so he is compelled tolook to America for support. Many made pledgesto support his work, and some have continued tosend in funds, but many others have either forgottenor for some other reason have failed to send in theamount pledged. Until now his support has beentaken care of, but his funds are now running verylow. ' If any of our friends have any tithe moneywhich you want to bring large returns in the Lord'swork you cannot find a better place to invest themthan in the work Robert Chung is doing here m

Korea. Without a doubt he is reaching more people in his services than any other evangelist m

Korea today. Dr. F. H. Larabee, Dean of AsburyTheological Seminary, is acting as treasurer for thisfund. Any money sent to him at Wilmore, Ken

tucky, will be immediately forwarded to Bro. Chungon the field.We are now engaged in a revival in Hamheung.

God is giving us gracious victory and many are

praying through. Continue to pray for us.

Yours in His Service,Asbury College Foreign Missionary Team.

Evangelist George Bennard will continue the re

vival of the East End churches in the tent at Texasand Dumble throug'h Wednesday. The meetingswere scheduled to close Sunday.During the meetings of this "Old Rugged Cross

revival about 400 persons were converted or reded-icated themselves to the faith, according to CharlesC. Hard, general chairman. Special music at the

Monday evening service was provided by the male

quartet of the Magnolia Park Christian Church.Doctor Bennard will leave Houston for Hermosa

Beach, Calif., but will return to hold another series

of meetings in September for the Heights, Norhilland Woodland section. Erection of a large woodentabernacle in which to conduct the services is

planned.

BUSY FoTtHE MASTER.We left Florida May 12, and arrived in Houston,

Texas, where we held our first meeting Sunday evening in the Richev- Tabernacle. They claim the con

gregation was about 1500, and about two hundredseekers at the altar that night. The power of God

Was present and the people praised the Lord. The

meeting continued nine days; the closing service

Way to the Lord. What an army of young men and

women! They came for miles around and were a

great help in testimony, prayer and song! It is a

delight to hold a meeting when you have such help.Calls are coming from different parts, "Come over

and help us." I shall remain here four weeks beforeI go farther west. Where he leads I will follow.

EAST EMMETT CAMP MEETING.The East Emmett camp meeting near Newton,

Kan., recently closed. Revs. Joseph H. Smith andChas. Stalker were the evangelists. Both of thesebrethren served the people well with rich messagesffom the word. The altar services were seasons ofprayer and tears and testimonies of victory throughgrace, for pardon, or reclamation or sanctification.Although the camp is six miles in the country, theattendance was good, the spirit of the meeting delightful. This camp is supported by loyal, fervent-spirited people who are ready for prayer or praiseor manual labor, all or anything for God's glory.The singing in charge of Prof. Landis was of a

spiritual nature and bl.essed to the good of the hearers. I had a nice, new building for the boys andgirls' meetings. Enjoyed the work and meetingthroughout. Delia B. Stretch.

REPORT OF R. P. MAR^ALL AND WIFE.Since our last report we have conducted only three

special revivals, yet have been in a revival constantly since Christmas. After our meeting at CrescentCity, Fla., we came to Birmingham to take chargeof the Birmingham Gospel Tabernacle in the absenceof Brother Tingley. We were also director of theRadio Revival services over WBRC each day forfive weeks, assisted by our good friend Rev. ThomasWilley, who is an Asbury man. This was a goodmeeting and many were saved.Following this, we came to Chattanooga to begin

a Radio Revival over WDOD. This was the twelfthof March, and since then the work has been growingin interest and power. Hundreds have been savedin this time. Thousands of letters have come intelling of the blessing of this radio gospel service.Many who are shut in, and who haven't heard a ser

mon in years now are able to hear the old-time gospel every morning. On the street corners in the citymen congregate to hear the old-time songs and themessages about Jesus. All through the city are

found thousands listening in, and out in the countrythe Church of The Air provides the only church ser

vice for weeks at a time.Each morning at nine o'clock we go on the air.

The service is conducted in an informal manner, thedirector acting as announcer. No set program

_

isfollowed, and a singer may introduce his song witha word of testimony which is greeted with a chorusof "Amens" from the studio audience. A few morn

ings ago one of our regular listeners from an out

lying town came sixty miles to see the. service beingbroadcast. He is seventy-five years old, and, as heassured us, a genuine John Wesley Methodist. Itwas a treat to watch him as he sat in the studio andsaw in person the singers and speakers whom he hadbeard but never seen before.Our work is entirely supported by freewill offer

ings which come in each day from the unseen audience. We would appreciate very much the prayersof The Herald family for our work here. If youhaven't heai-d our program, and live within twohundred miles of Chattanooga, tune in on WDOD atnine o'clock each morning except Sunday. To thoseof you who have heard us but are wondering whoand what we are, we would assure you that we are

believers in the power of the old-time gospel to save

and cleanse all who will come to the fountain. Thatis our message.A few weeks ago we had the privilege of going

over the grounds of our dear Asbury College. Howit has grown since we were there in '21!We ask your prayers for a great and sweeping

revival in this city. R. P. MarshalL

KOLAR TOWN, SOUTH INDIA.As another year's work of love rapidly draws to

ward its close, we are found in very good health andabout as happy as can be in this great work of re

vealing Jesus Christ to India's multitudes who sitin darkness. And we are more grateful than we

can describe to each and every kind patron of thework for their continued help both financially and

by their prayers for us. We can candidly reportthat the financial side of the work is brightening upand God, through his servants, has been indeed goodto us throughout the year. We do praise our lovingFather for all his mercies�and take new courage.We have just concluded another session of our

Bangalore District Conference and judging from the

spiritual results which attended the gathering theoutlook for Kingdom advance in our section is very

hopeful. We took two weeks time to this occasionand gave ourselves day and night to matters spiritual to waiting on God for a deep and genuine re

vival and for his preparation of each one of us for

the battle of the future. And beloved, we were not

disappointed. The Lord sent us real showers of

blessing and gave a general victory in all the campbefore the end.It was our aim to pray down a real manifestation

of the power of God unto salvation in all this workand among all our outside village teachers and evan

gelists who were in attendance. On an average some

seven meetings would be held in each day. The nineMissionaries of the station united in a beautifulspirit of harmony arid agreed to attend to finishthings first,�the salvation of souls,�and this unitywas sure pledge of the ultimate victory which didcome. After some ten days of battling the greatdeep broke upon us and wells of salvation sprung upin every part of the work. A special work was

wrought by the Holy Spirit among our scores ofyoung men and women. Bishop and Mrs. Badleycame in for the last few days of the conflict andhelped out blessedly. Their hearts were indeedgladdened to hear the hilarious, spontaneous testimonies of a hundred or more souls at the finalPraise Service, and to see some half-hundred finepromising youth at the altar consecrating themselves to Ciirist's service in their own dear motherland. Truly, the "future is as bright as are thepromises of God," and the end is not yet, praise theLord.Do please pray on, dear friends, for us and con

tinue your help in gifts for the Master's work, forwe shall all reap together some fair day if we faintnot. E. A. Seamonds.

UNDER THE TENTS.The first meeting held this summer and reported

to my office was a meeting held at Eubanks, Ky., byone of the ministerial students of Asbury Seminary,Rev. Carl Looncy. This young man hustled aboutand got this meeting started before he had quitefinished his work in the Seminary for the year. Hisuncle helped him and together they had a real salvation time. About 25 people were definitely blessedin this meeting, and the entire country round about.made to feel the mighty saving power of our glo"-rious Redeemer.Rev. Thomas Willey from Egan Park, Atlanta,

Ga., sends in the second report. This meeting washeld in the cotton mill section of the city and fortwo weeks was a hard-fought battle, but as alwayshappens when the gospel is faithfully presented, ourChrist gave the victory. In this meeting there wereabout thirty seekers and fully ten of them got definitely blessed. F. H. Larabee.I wish to send a supplement to the report sent to

Dr. Larabee. After I sent the report we had a

very gracious break in the meeting. Up to date wehave had over fifty seekers at the altar. Some haveshown very clear evidence by their testimony andwillingness to pray in public of their conversion.We had planned to close the meeting two weeks ago,but under the circumstances I felt that I must continue. We are having seekers at the altar everynight. Thomas Willey.

BECK BROTHERS IN THE SOUTH.We have been in Baton Rouge, La., for six weeks

in a real battle for our Lord. We were invited byRev. C. H. Mayo, pastor of the Church of the Nazarene. We put our tent in an addition near the Standard Oil Company, which has 1000 acres under tanksand refinery. They work over 5000 men. This oughtto be a great place for crowds. The people of theother denominations did not co-operate with us astheir pastors seemed to be out of sympathy with them.eeting, while others disturbed us so nuich that wehad to ask the sheriff to intervene. Notwithstanding the fact of these drawbacks, and also that ourtent blew down, we had twenty-five or more whoprayed through to victory and two sanctified, one afine Baptist woman who united with the NazareneChurch, and the other a young husband who hadbeen converted in the meeting.We have not witnessed the revival that we de

sired, but the holiness people have been faithful intheir efforts and entertained us, also gave us ashower of useful articles that we deeply appreciate.They are among them the most devout people Ihave met. May the blessing of the Lord rest uponthem.

Yours in the Master's service,A. S. Beck.

FIELD NOTES.After reading from the secular press the record

of sin and crime, it is really refreshing to read inThe Pentecostal Herald, messages of full and com

plete redemption, and to hear of the victories oversin and Satan on the various fields of the world. Thereports on this page are a fine panacea for the ailsof skepticism concerning revivals. I delight in reading the reports of our old Asbury friends and of themany soldiers of the cross many of whom I have notknown in the flesh. May God grant us larger measures of power for soul winning and greater efficiencyin conserving the results of evangelistic efforts!As Conference Evangelist of the Kentucky Con

ference, I have been very busy this year, exceptinga rest period covering parts of the months of Apriland May. Since Christmas, we have assisted inmeetings in Methodist churches at the follo^vingplaces: Cumberland, Ky., with Rev. W. F. Cochran;Mendon, Ohio, with Rev. C. 0. Good; Russell, Ky.,with Rev. V. E. Fryman, and Covington, Ky., withDr. J. B. Stratton. We are now at Cannel City, Ky.Our slate is filled until Conference. Will you pray

that God will make me a fruitful branch in the vine.Yours in the service of the King,

Joseph H. Lewis.

(Continued from page 1)

We must make a distinction here betweensin and sinning. Sin is a condition, a natural, unholy state, an indwelling corruptprinciple. Sinning is wicked action. It iswrong doing. There may be sin in a man

who is not actually sinning. Evil appetitesand unholy passions may be so restrainedthat they do not break out in actual violationof God's law. It requires careful and ear

nest prayer to restrain, subdue, and hold thecarnal nature in subjection. It is almost certain at times to break out into actual transgression.The carnal mind is as universal as the hu

man race. All men are by nature sinful. Allhave suffered because of the fall. Let us no

tice the nature of the carnal mind. Gal. 5 :19-21 : "Now the works of the flesh are manifest which are these: Adultery, fornication,uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath,strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, rnur-

ders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like:of the which I tell you before, as I have alsotold you in time past, that they that do suchthings shall not inherit the kingdom of God."This is a fearful picture presented by the

Apostle Paul, but it is not overdrawn. It isnot only in harmony with the general tenorof Bible teaching, but it is descriptive of manthroughout the history of the race. It is not

only true of the people who live in the jungles, but it is true of those who have lived in

palaces and kings' courts. All sorts of beast

ly sins are not only found in the slums but inthe mansion on Fifth Avenue. Murder,theft, adultery, debauchery and outbreakingsins of every kind are found 'in every class of

society; not only among the illiterate, but

among the highly educated also.The teachings of our Lord and Master are

in perfect harmony with the apostle Paul. LetJesus describe to us the natural state of the

human heart. Mark 7:21-23: "For from

within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil

thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride,foolishness: All these things come from with

in, and defile the man."It will be seen at once that there is no

difference or conflict in the teachings of the

Apostle Paul and of our Lord and Master.

Jesus here gives us a true portrait of the hu

man heart. The carnal mind is not de

stroyed in regeneration. The inspired apostle, in his first Epistle to the Corinthians,third chapter, first, second and third verses,

very clearly points out the fact that thesenewly regenerated believers had in them thecarnal nature. "And I, brethren, could notspeak unto you as unto spiritual, but as untocarnal, even as unto babes in Christ. I havefed you with milk, and not with meat: forhitherto ye were not able to bear it, neitheryet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal :for whereas there is among you envying, andstrife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, andwalk as men?"This teaching is very clear. These Corin

thians had experienced the new birth. Theywere babes in Christ. It were impossible forthem to be babes in Christ without the newbirth ; but they were yet carnal, and theircarnality was manifesting itself in disagreements and contention. When St. Paul criesout against the "sin that dwelleth in me" heis speaking of the common state of God's re

generated children. He is very specific. Hesays: "Now if I do that I would not, it is no

more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth inme."The carnal mind�indwelling sin�is not

an essential part of human nature. God didnot create it. It was introduced by Satan ;it can be eliminated and the whole God-created man remain intact. Regeneration isthe impartation of a new nature. Sanctification is the expurgation of an old nature.These are two great works of grace. Thefigures of speech used to designate these twogracious works are entirely different, wideapart. Jesus takes birth to convey the cor

rect idea of regeneration. "Ye must be bornagain." It is the incoming of a new life.The Apostle Paul in speaking of the de

struction of the carnal nature uses the figureexactly opposite of that of birth. "Knowing this, that our old man is crucified withhim, that the body of sin might be destroyed,that henceforth ye should not serve sin."Rom. 6:6. You will notice at once the verywide difference of the two works of grace,the incoming of the new life, which is a

birth, and the outgoing of the old carnal life,which is a death, a crucifixion.When the Apostle Paul tells us to "put off

the old man" he has in mind this carnal nature, "which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts." When he tells us to "put on

the new man, which after God is created inrighteousness and true holiness," he is thinking of the regenerating power of the HolyGhost making us in Christ new creatures.

These Scriptures are in perfect harmonywith Christian experience. Not a Christianhere and there, now and then, but with allChristians throughout the history of thechurch; God's children who know positivelythat they have repented, that they have forsaken sin, been graciously regenerated andreceived the witness of the Spirit know alsothat they have had bitter struggles againstinward uprisings of evil desires, carnal impulses and have had to battle against theseimpulses, sometimes crying out with theApostle Paul, "Oh wretched man that I am!Who shall deliver me from the body of thisdeath !"Thank God, there is deliverance from the

carnal nature. The old man can be crucified.The atonement provided by our Lord Jesussecures for us not only the forgiveness of ouractual sins, but it also provides for thecleansing of our hearts from indwelling sin.The body of sin can be destroyed. TheApostle says, "But ye are not in the flesh, ifso be that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you."He did not mean that they were not yet inthe body, but he meant they were not underthe dominion of the carnal nature. The com

ing in of the Holy Ghost is the outgoing ofthe old man. If the strong man of God, theHoly Ghost, keeps the house the old man isnot only cast out, but he is kept out.Suffer a word of exhortation : Have you

experienced the regenerating power of theHoly Spirit? Have you had inward upris

ings and desires contrary to the spirituallife? Have you prayed and fought againstunholy thoughts and appetites striving forthe mastery? How strange! You know youhave been converted ; you love God, his truthand his people, yet this inward foe pressesyou sorely; you are often in great distress-your faith is crippled, your love grows cold!You are grieved at your lack of zeal. Youcannot understand yourself. You fully realize the statement contained in the text thatyour carnal nature is at enmity against God.Be assured that this carnal can be cast out."

The blood of Jesus Christ, God's Son, cleans^eth us from all sin. It is not the will of Godthat his people should be hindered and harrassed by this old man, this indwelling, perverse nature. The Lord Jesus can masterhim, the Holy Ghost can come in, purifyingthe heart by faith, taking up his abode andabiding, keeping the soul in peace and se

curity. A thousand evils may press withoutbut Jesus dwells within. He is the strongman that can keep his house bought with hisprecious blood, against all the power of theenemy. This is a blessed experience ; it is alittle heaven in the heart. It brings withina full assurance of faith, it gives one songsin the night.Would the reader have this experience? It

is a divine gift. Our part is consecration ; toyield ourselves without reservation into themighty hands of him who loved us and gavehimself for us, and to trust without doubt inthe all-cleansing power of the atoning bloodshed for us on Calvary's rugged cross. Letus have boldness to enter into the fudness ofthe blessing of the gospel of Christ; to dareto trust him and to plunge by faith into thefountain that cleanseth from all sin.Those who have found Jesus in repent

ance and faith as a Saviour, who have trusted in him and had their sins blotted out,their guilt all taken away, and have walked with Jesus by faith, and having takenhim as a Savior, may now take him as Lord,as complete owner, in a consecration whichkepes back no part of the price; a love andtrust which gladly yields up all forever andreceives, as a result of this consecration andfaith, the Lord Jesus in his fulness, sanctifying and cleansing, and entering in by theHoly Spirit to the temple which he hasbought, which he owns, cleanses with hisown blood, and possesses wholly. Such persons are fixed and established in their faith.They do not belong to those wandering andrestless spirits forever seeking and never

able to find the truth. They have found Jesus, and they are satisfied. They have settled and fixed themselves in the capital andcenter of the spiritual universe. They knowthat their souls have come into the fulness ofthe blessing of the Gospel of Christ. Theyare liable to be regarded as narrow and bigoted because they are so conscious of what hastaken place, so contented and so immovable;but they can easily endure ridicule, misunderstandings, persecutions, or whatever maycome, because they have Jesus, and havefound in him full redemption and graciousrest for their souls. They seek no farther;they rest in his love and delight in his service. They seek to know more and more ofhim, who sanctifies and satisfies.

Commencement Exercises at TaylorUniversity.

It was my privilege, at the invitation ofDr. John Paul, President of Taylor University, to preach once at the CommencementExercises of this school. Wife and I came

up ;n time to spend several days with thesegood people. The new gymnasium and auditorium is not fully finished, but was in excellent condition to care for the large gatherings which met for the enjoyment of theCommencement Exercises. This is- really a

splendid building; will hold, I judge, at leastthree, possibly four, times as many peopleas their college chapel, and the people knowing they would have ample room, came in


large numbers, and enjoyed the Commencement Exercises.We were not able to get there until Satur

day afternoon, and regretted to find thatBishop Oldham had rendered his part of theservice ifor the occasion and had departed.He is greatly beloved there as elsewhere, andwe heard many comments on the blessing hebrought with him and left with the people.Bishop Blake, of the M. E. Church, bishop

of that area, delivered the Baccalaureate ser

mon. It was a great message on Pentecost.I sht>uld like to see it in print. The peopleof that region seem to be greatly pleasedwith his ministry.Rev. Clarence True Wilson delivered the

Class Address on Commencement Day. Hissubject was "The Guiding Hand of Providence." He gave, first of all, a remarkablescriptural basis for his theme and then followed it with an application among the na

tions of the earth, especially in these UnitedStates. He convinced the people that God isguiding the destinies of nations, rebuking sinand rewarding righteousness. The addresswould make an interesting pamphlet and beread with great profit.We attended a number of the entertain

ments given by the students and found variety and very high degree of talent amongthem.A host of visiting friends were present to

attend the exercises and be present at thegraduation of their sons and daughters. Aspirit of good fellowship prevailed everywhere. The Alumni had an enthusiasticmeeting and delightful banquet. My wifewas at the head of the Department of Musicin this institution for some years, and hadthe pleasure of meeting many of the studentswho were under her instruction. I judgefrom the color of the hair of some of thesestudents who took music under her direction, the dear woman must be getting on inyears. We find Dr. Paul in excellent health,hard at work on his big job. There is a finespirit of enthusiasm among the Alumni forthe enlargement and ongoing of the institution. May the blessing of God abide withthem.

Asbury Theological SeminaryIs thoroughly Wesleyan in its teaching,which means it is in perfect accord withWesiley's interpretation of fundamentalChristian doctrine. It is clear and strong on

the doctrine of "the fall and depravity ofmankind, the necessity of the new birth, regeneration by the Holy Ghost, the witness ofthe Spirit to acceptance with God as his newborn child, the remains of the carnal natureand its removal by a direct baptism with the

Holy Ghost purifying the heart by faith, subsequent to regeneration. This Seminary inits teaching and spirit not only stands for

regeneration and entire sanctification, but

vigorous evangelism ; above all things, it undertakes to send forth young men filled withthe Spirit eager ifor the salvation of spuls;Gospel preachers on the ceaseless hunt forlost sinners, with a holy passion that can besatisfied with nothing less than the rescue

from sin the souls of their fellowbeings.There is not, there cannot be, anything

more important in our world today than a

God-called, blood-cleansed, Spirit-filled, en

thusiastic ministry endued with a power en

tirely beyond anything except that which is

imparted by the Holy Ghost himself. Webase our hope, our prayers, our efforts uponGod's eternal promises and the urgent needof the world of these times of startling wick

edness, of unbelief, of false teaching, of rising tides o!f worldliness. In our very soulswe feel that we must appeal to any and everyone who can help us in this great work. Whyshould we hesitate! Death and judgment arecoming. Why should we be timid or ashamed ! We are not pleading for ourselves. It

must be that the Holy Spirit is pleadingwithin us and through us to those who willhear.

DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.Mrs. H. C. Morrison.

raw^gsa HERE is much discussion, proand con, concerning our young

/t^Sj..^ people. Some claim that theyPsMt^^ are an improvement on the gen-

erations gone, while others are

inclined' to think that they are

all bad, headed for the bottomless pit.I am not to sit in judgment on what may

be the opinions of others, but I do think theyoung people of today are to be pitied more

than blamed because of the fact that, wherewe older ones had one temptation, they haveten. We should remember that in our daythere were no Sunday movies, baseball wasnot so common, cards, as a rule, were indulged in only by men who frequented barrooms and gambling dens ; automobiles were

not standing at every door to entice youngsters to joy-riding on Sunday and night-riding during the week. Road-houses were notin the vocabulary of us country folk, nor didthe city youngsters have such attractions inthe days gone by.It is true, young people danced in the olden

days, but they were very different from thedances of today. They had what they calledthe "square dance" which did not requiresuch intimate contact as the modern danceswhich are amazingly immodest and vulgar. Iam not excusing the ancient way of trippingthe light fantastic toe, but I do say it wasmore in accord with decency than the dancesof our present time. How any man can see

his sister, sweetheart or friend handled as

they are in the modern dance and not become disguested, yea, infuriated, is a mystery to this writer.When I was a girl about the only diver

sions we had from the daily routine was Sun

day school, church, prayer meeting and simple games that were innocent and harmless.Yes, there was sin, but it was not hangingon every front gate inviting unwary feet to'indulge, as it is today. When a girl went"astray" she was secluded and the family felta lifelong disgrace had befallen them.Then in former days, the cigarette was un

known. It is the product of more recentyears. Our co'untry is becoming the rival ofEngland, which leads the world in cigarettes,where the average is 912 cigarettes to everyman, woman and child, if equally distributed ; while in the United States it is 856 perperson. In five years the increase in England has been from 800 to 912, which is ac

counted for by so many women taking up thehabit. It is said that the women smokers ofGreat Britain last year spent $30,000,000 andconsumed 3,417,333,970 cigarettes. This isalarming and we should fight it with mightand main.Then we did not have the enticing swim

ming pool where boys and girls, almost naked, dive into the water together, often em

braced in each others' arms; and yet, nothing is thought of it because it is custom. Arewe to conclude that a thing is right becauseit is custom! That being true, we mightwink at most anything that our precociousgeneration might launch upon the swift rolling tide of humanity as it laughs its way toouter darkness.I don't know one card from another, but I

do know that when we hear women speak cfattending a "party" it means a card party.Now what it is they play, I do not know, butit is something that is consuming the timethat could be given to something more helpful to character building. It is almost impossible to get our young people to think se

riously on religion, for they know to be religious they will have to separate themselvesfrom these vain things of the world, so theyprefer to "dance and play cards" and lettheir souls take the risk of salvation in some

far-oflf time when the sands in life's hourglass run low and they have few remainingdays left. But God has said, "My Spiritshall not always strive with man," and itmay be they will be left unto themselvesdesolate, without God and without hope inthe world.We who are older and have seen the seri

ous side of life, know that it takes watchingand prayer to keep ourselves unspotted fromthe world ; then how much more will it takefor our young people to steih the tide, whoare subjected to the innumerable evils thatconfront them on every hand. Let us warn

and pray for them and, if possible, give themthe benefits of an old-time revival where theSpirit may shine into their darkened heartsand bring them to repentance before it is toolate.

OUR BOYS AND GIRLS

A BEAUTIFUL ACT.

Some poor children were standingoutside a building in a city in England. They were waiting for the doorto be opened. It was supposed thatthey were going to have a meetingfor children inside.While they were there waiting in

the cold, a most beautiful scene took

place. There was a poor little girlstanding there with no shoes andstockings on. She was shivering and

kept lifting up first one blue foot, andthen the other, from the wet and coldground.A boy standing by noticed the shiv

ering little creature trying to warm

her cold feet, when she really had no

way of doing so. He pulled off his

cap and laid it down on the groundat her feet, saying, "There, you maystand on that."What a kind and tender heart had

that boy! It seems he must haveknown the Lord Jesus as his Savior,to be so thoughtful of the little sufferer, at a sacrifice to himself. Someother boys might have thought to dothe same thing, but they might nothave wanted to stand bareheaded inthe cold, nor get their cap dirty bythe wet ground or the little girl'ssoiled feet.It was a brave little act. How

thankful must the little girl havebeen to be treated with such kindness by a boy who had a real heart!The boy might not have known

that the Bible says we shall love our

neighbor as ourselves, yet he did it.Our neighbor is any one who needsour help in any way. Wherever we

are, or wherever we go, we can findsuffering and sad people to help forJesus' sake. This world is filledwith needy people, and no one can

help thfem better than those who lovethe Lord Jesus, and do it for his sake.�Mabel Glenn Haldemann.

Bertha Mae Long.New Market, la.

Dear Aunt Bettie: I have beenreading The Herald for some time,and certainly do enjoy it, especiallyBro. and Sister Morrison's articles. Ilove the gospel of Jesus Christ andthey surely do preach it in its purity.Would to God all who are strivingto be Christians would read their letters. I'm sure it would do them good.I don't know what I could say to beof help to any one. There has already been so much said, but will sayto the boys and girls who have takenthe Christians' vows. Be true to yourpromises. Be true to your church.

and above all, be true to God theFather of us all, and where he leadslet us follow. My desire is to be a

Christian, and I know to do this Imust give up the world and its sinfulpleasures, which are causing so manyto turn away from the true faith. Iam a girl of twenty-one summers.

Have tried always to do what Jesuswould have mc do. In the first place,to take my m�ther's counsel, and feelsure she knows best for her children.I deny myself of the so-called bigtimes, just for the sake of Jesus.Have never been out in the world totake part in its follies. Have always loved home and work. Housekeeping is my delight. My mother'shaalth being delicate for many years,I took up the household duties veryyoung, and I feel sure it has been forthe best, as God's way is always best.Of course, I have had my heartaches,but take it all to the Lord in prayerand leave it all to him. I am superintendent of our Sunday school and askthe prayers of all the Christians thatI might be a shining light unto theworld. Would be glad to get lettersfrom any of the Christians and willanswer all I can. Lois Gallman.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSONREV. O. G. MINGLEDORFF, D.D.

Lesson IIL�July 20, 1930.

Subject.�Moses. Exodus 3:1-12.

Golden Text.�"By faith he forsook

Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the

king: for he endured, as seeing him

who is invisible. Hebrews 11:27.

Time.�B. C. 1570 to B. C. 1450.

Places.�Egypt, Sinai, the wilder-

less, Mt. Nebo.Introduction.�Some one has said

that when God desires to make a

great man, he must needs first make

a great woman to be his mother. I

think this was true in the case of

Moses. No doubt his father was also

worth while. Their three children,Miriam, Aaron and Moses bear the

marks of good human stock; and the

training they received in their little

home was above praise. It does not

appear that the two older children

were ever put out of the home at all;but Moses was taken into the home

of Pharaoh's daughter when he was

very young�possibly not more than

five or six years of age. The fact that

Amram and Jochebed so trained him

during those early years that all the

teaching of heathen Egypt could not

undo their work almost staggers be

lief. Solomon was right when he

said: "Train up a child in the way

he should go; and when he is old he

will not depart from it." Parental

responsibility is almost infinite. This

alone would be sufficient lesson for

today, if we could thoroughly master

it.We studied three Jacobs to find

one. In like manner we must studyMoses during the three marked per

iods of his life. He must have been

a beautiful child. In Acts 7:20 we

fead that he "was exceeding fair."

The Greek says: "Fair to God." In

Hebrews the same Greek word is

translated "proper." God's hand was

on that baby from the hour of his

birth.From the time that Moses was tak

en from his parents to the end of the

first forty-year period, his life is al

most completely Ihidden from us. To

all intents and purposes he was an

Egyptian, living in the palace and

faring sumptuously every day. But

those were not wasted years. Dur

ing that time he was being educated

in all the learning of the Egyptians;and that was no small matter for one

who was to become the leader of his

people; for at that time the Egyptians were possibly the best educated

people on earth. One marvels that

he did not lose sympathy for the

downtrodden Hebrew people; but he

did not. There was good, clean man

hood in that young Jew. When he

emerges from that first forty-year

period he is not an Egyptian, but a

Hebrew who is thoroughly loyal to

the true God. There does not seem to

be the slightest taint of idolatry in

all his make-up. I lift my hat to

Amram and Jochebed. Jehovah was

preparing their great son for one of

the mightiest tasks that ever fell to

the lot of any man.

The second forty-year period is a

bit mysterious. Why should Jehovah

bury his man for that long period in

a desert land with a flock of sheep?It looks like a waste of time. Accord

ing to our modern notions he was justthe right age for a great leader of

men; but God thought differently. He

likes seasoned timber. We like the

pep and snap of boyish years: God

prefers the leadership of riper years.Those were great years in the life of

Moses. Have you ever noticed how

God sends men into periods of quietness to prepare them for great ac

tion? Saul of Tarsus spent three

years somewhere near Mt. Sinai in

quiet loneliness with God. Luther's

stay in the castle was not lost time

because he was shut off from theworld. We are all far richer because

John Bunyan was imprisoned for sev

eral years. To be alone with God en

ables one to build character to face

the world. There is too much beingsaid in these days about buildingcharacter in the open. It is a mis

take. Great characters are built in

the private walks of life; but one

must come into lihe open for life's

work. Both are necessary to genuine success. Those shepherd years

gave Moses time to think and grow.

They gave him a true estimate of

himself, and some just conception of

Jehovah. They were blessed years of

real schooling for his big task.

My old college president used to

say to his students: "Young gentlemen, stop long enough to grind youraxes. Yj3U will cut more wood than

you can cut with dull tools." It took

Moses eiglhty years to grind his; but

when he met God at the burning bush,it was quite sharp�sharper than he

knew, for he had not tested its edge.He would need good metal and a

keen edge during the next fortyyears. But I must not go fartherwith this introductory matter. The

lesson text will need some comment.Comments on the Lesson.

1. Jethro.�Moses' father-in-law,he having married Jethro's daughterZipporah. Jethro is also called Ho-

bab, it being customary at that timefor men to have two names. Thereis some difficulty in clearing up the

lines of kinship here. Some havecontended that Jethro and Reuel were

the same person. On the contrary, itseems that Reuel was the father of

Jethro. Jethro was probably an idol-ator when Moses first met him, but

later was converted to the worship of

Jehovah. It is supposed that he ac

cepted the invitation of Moses, and

accompanied the children of Israel toCanaan wfhere he afterwards lived.

He is called "the priest of Midian";but the term may also mean a prince,or a combination of the two.

2. The angel of the LORD.�The

messenger of Jehovah. In a flame of

fire out of the midst of a bush.�Abush on fire without being burnedwas miracle enough to attract the

attention of any one. No one knows

what sort of bush it was.3. I will now turn aside, and see

this great sight.�Many wild guesseshave been made as to how Moses feltwhen he saw this sight; but he says

that the thing that attracted him was

the fact that the bush was not con

sumed by the fire.4. The LORD called unto him: . .

Moses, Moses.�Now you can imaginefor yourself what sort of feelingswere thrilling through the heart of

that lone shepherd. The voice was

speaking out of the fire. Moses ans

wers according to Hebrew custom:

"Here am I." It took some courageto face that situation. Most men

would have run away. "Consciencemakes cowards- of us all," unless we

are morally clean.

5. Draw not nigh hither.�It is a

dangerous thing for one to court fa

miliarity with God. The behavior of

some in this regard is shocking. Bet

ter be careful. The deepest reverenceis always becoming when we ap

proach the Divine Person. The sort

of so-called praying that one hears so

often these days is awful. It sounds

as if the one pretending to pray were

speaking to an equal, or perchance an

inferior. Put off thy shoes (sandals)from off thy feet, for the place where

on thou standest is holy ground.�The very soil was holy because of

Jehovah's presence. God was dealingwith Moses according to the belief of

the time, that one should stand bare

footed in his presence. There are

some terrible lessons here for this ir

reverent age.6. Jehovah identifies himself: "I

am the God of thy fathers, the God of

Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the

God of Jacob." That is, "I am the

God whom they worshipped andserved." Moses hid his face; for he

was afraid to look upon God.�And

well he might be afraid. Beloved, itis a fearful matter for one to find

himself face to face with AlmightyGod, whether he is seen with the eye

of flesh, or realized by the spirit'stouch with the unseen Being. Go

erence.

7. I have surely seen the afflictionof my people.�I do not suppose that

one would blunder if he stated that

Jehovah would have delivered the

Jews from their Egyptian bondagesooner than he did, had they been

ready for deliverance. He permittedthe people to suffer in slavery for

their own good. He was preparingthem for the accomplishment of greatends; and the preparation requiredsevere training. There was much in

Negro slavery that was reprehensible; but God used it to Christianizeand civilize a large group of ;rawheathen more quickly than such a

thing has ever been done under anyother circumstances. We must not

forget that God's hand is on the na

tions.8. I am come down.�God is omni

present; but here, as in many other

instances, he accommodates himselfto human thought and speech. Todeliver them out of the hand of the

Egyptians.�That had ever been his

purpose; but the time was now ripefor deliverance. That was half the

purpose; the other half being to leadthem into Canaan. It was never his

purpose that his people should wan

der in the desert forty years on their

way to the promised land; but theycheckmated God's plan by their unbelief. A land flowing with milk and

honey.�Figurative for aboundingriches.

9. The cry of the children of Israel.�The record is not clear as to

whether this was their prayer for de

liverance, or simply a broken-hearted

cry because of oppression. Probablythe latter; but God heard it, and ans

wered. Their sufferings under thehand of the Egyptians had not passedunnoticed in heaven. Matters will be

adjusted some day. Justice must

triumph, or the divine governmentwill go down.

10. I will send thee unto Pharaoh.�Moses had never thought of it, butit was God's purpose before he was

born in Egypt to meet him at this

burning bush, and to send him to deliver his people from bondage. It wasthe severest test that had ever come

to Moses. Without knowing it, he hadlived eighty years with special ref-

erence to this very hour. He hadbeen faithful to Jehovah all along the

way; and now tremhling with fear he

faces the issue for wihich he was bominto the world. Moses was not the

only man with such an experience.George Washington was born to deliver America. Frances Willard was

born to drive drink from the face ofthe earth; and by God's grace her

influence will never die until the glorious work is done. If we have not

met the issue for which we were

born, it is ahead of us somewhere. Be

ready when it comes.11. Who am I, that I should go be

fore Pharaoh?�That was honest,and it was splendid. Had Moses

sought the office, I am sure God wouldnot have sent him. We wait for men

to seek office; and we get a lot ofscrub oaks where we need red-woods.God knows better, and does better.Moses felt that he was too small forthe job. That is a mighty good feeling for one wlho is going to undertakelarge responsibilities. But he mustnot be a coward. If he must go, lethim go with undaunted courage, andwith faith in God.

12. Certainly I will be with thee.�One can go anywhere, and undertakeany sort of task with that sort of

promise from God. "If God be for

us, who can be against us?" God'stoken was later fulfilled exactJy:"When thou hast brought forth the

people out of Egypt, ye shall serve

me upon this mountain." There Godmet them when they came forth from

bondage.

HERALDS OF PASSION.By Rev. Chas. Goodell.

In many quarters the church seems tohave lost the fine flavor of its early raptures. In some way we must win backthat early enthusiasm. The author proceeds to speak of the methods of Jesus,and of the price which all men must payfor spiritual power. He shows the passion which was upon the hearts of the

prophets, the apostles, and the reformers.The book is a passionate appeal to ministers and laymen to give themselves without stint and with infinite yearning to thesalvation and service of men.

ASBURY THEOLOGICAL SEMINARYHENRY CLAY MORRISON, D. D., President.

"What we preach in these days" seems to be an open question in some theological circles. Asbury Seminary is in harmony at this point with St. Paul's dictum,"Preach the word."

With Asbury, "the what" is not an open question, and "the how" is answered '

by taking a three-year course in theology culminating in the B. D. degree. "Thewhole Bible for the whole world" sanely interpreted and heroically preached is theideal toward which we strive. Write Dean F. H. Larabee, Wilmore, Ky., for catalog.

PROHIBITION DOES PROHIBIT.By The Editor.

' F a man's religion does not affecthis politics he ought to throw itaway and seek the religion ofthe Lord Jesus Christ. Thatwill affect his entire life, histhoughts, desires, and actions.

To be a true Christian man is to vote as one

The first vote I ever cast I voted contraryto my political prejudices and in harmonywith my relig-ious convictions. There were

two candidates, one of them who representedthe pojitical party I preferred, was of a character that I could not believe was fit to represent decent people with high ideals, anywhere; the other was a man of intelligenceand character that I could trust. I wouldhave violated my conscience and votedagainst my religious convictions, if I had followed political notions and prejudices in-stead ofmy Christian ideals.

� * * �

Ihave lived during. the reign, riot and ruinof theiiquor traffic. When I was a boy distilleries were about a^ thick in the country as

grist mills. There was drunkenness everywhere. Young and old were drinking.Young men were galloping their horses, firing their pistols, cursing and swearing indrunkenness along the highway. The distilleries were places of drunkenness, profanity,brawls and 'battles. Enough fine young men

have died drunk in old Kentucky to fill almost every high oflfice in the Capitol at Washington. I could write a book of tragediesfilled with ruin and bloodshed that havetranspired before my own eyes, because ofthe liquor traflac.

� � ? *

I have had personal knowledge of thepride, arrogance, profanity, contempt forGod and humanity that has characterizeddistillers, saloon-keepers and their politicalslaves bought and sold who obeyed their bidding, trampled upon God's law, cursedpreachers, ridiculed the church, sneered at

righteousness, accused everybody who opposed the greed and ruin with which they en

riched themselves of hypocrisy, narrownessand meddling with other people's business. Ihave known some churchmembers, but I havenever known a Christian to be connectedwith the liquor business. All the distillers,whiskey merchants, bar-keepers whom I haveever known, who did not bitterly, deeply, andtruly repent of their selfish wickedness andseek the Lord Jesus Christ for forgivenessand have passed away, are now in eternaltorment. I make this statement with sadness of heart. But the pits of hell are thefinal doom and home of the men and women

who advocate, encourage and carry forwardthe liquor trafiJic, even if they are EpiscopalBisHops, who own stock in distilleries andbreweries in England. That selfishnessWhich would blast and ruin humanity with'iquor in order to take from its victims their

"ttoney, is one of the highest sins against God

BE SURE TO READ THIS.Every thoughtful person must recognize the

fact that there exists a condition of wickedlawlessnes in this country that is appalling.The liquor traffic when it had the endorse

ment and protection of the government was

always overbearing', dictatorial, selfish andregardless of law. It was the master of weakand vascillating politicians who took their payand their orders from their masters�the liquoroligarchy.The attitude of the public press is of a char-

acter that gives encouragement to the violation of all prohibition law, and this lends itselfto a diabolical influence which tramples, withruthless feet, all law.We shall, have tp look largely to the Church

Press, to fight out the great battle for righteousness against the rum demon, and all theevils which the liquor traffic fosters. � Thoseof you who have read The Pentecostal Heraldknow that it is a champion warrior againstthe liquor traffic in all of its phases. God hasgraciously blessed our protest against thistraffic in blood and souls, and its representatives who seek to get into their hands thereins of our national government.We are now offering The Pentecostal Herald

for 50 cents until January, 1931. We wantthe lovers of righteousness, sobriety, thehomes of" our people, and desire their peaceand happiness here, and their salvation hereafter, to help us sow The Herald down inthousands of homes. If we expect a harvestof sobriety and peace we must labor withholy zeal to sow the seeds of truth and righteousness among the people. Speak to yourneighbor. Get a subscription; in addition, furnish a 50 cents and give the name and address of some one to whom you send the paper until January, 1931. Names are comingin rapidly, but for the sake of sobriety, salvation and peace and happiness among men, helpus to send out The Herald into thousands ofnew homes. Faithfully your brother,

and humanity. There must be deep repentance, or there will be deep perdition.

* * � *

There is a cry going up from the liquoritesall over this country, that prohibition willnot prohibit. A good many people in thiscountry have found out that it will prohibit.We learn from the public press that sixmonths, ending with February of the currentyear, our good old Uncle Sam tried 27,575cases, arrested on charges of violating our

prohibition laws. Out of this number 26,811persons were convicted; a large per cent ofthem plead guilty ; an army of them went toprison. The fines assessed against themamount to $3,379,448. The anti-prohibitionists seem to be too blind to see, or deaf tohear, these facts. What if a man of the character of Teddy Roosevelt had been Presidentfor seven years before Mr. Hoover took officeand began to energetically enforce the prohibition laws ! What a different state of thingswe would have today ! The time to have en

forced the law so it would have counted formost, was immediately after the EighteenthAmendment went into the Constitution.Then was the time for a strong hand and vigorous enforcement. Then was the time formen who were prohibitionists at heart tohave been in authority and enforced, most

vigorously, prohibition laws.

We need at this time a nation-wide awakening on this subject. Every preacher of theland ought to thunder against the liquortraffic in all of its phases. Every religiousjournal ought to sound its note of warning,encouragement and battle against this foe ofmankind, the greatest evil that has evercursed and blasted humanity. Every (fatherand mother in the land ought to become deeply interested, talk and pray and vote againstany and every person who, is in any way,tolerant toward the liquor traffic. The timehas come to strike this foe of righteousnesshard and fast until it is down and trampledunder the feet of the progressive and forward moving army of sobriety and righteousness. We want the sympathy and helpof a hundred thousand good people to circulate and sow down this paper among theirfriends and neighbors. It is entirely possiblethat within something more than two years,at the next presidential election, the David ofSobriety and all human interests will becalled upon to fling the stone of an over

whelming vote into the head of the Goliath ofblasphemy and drunkenness. May God put aholy enthusiasm into us, make us courageousand strong and gird us for holy war againstthe liquor traffic in all of its phases. Nothing could be better, more opportune and helpful for the cause of prohibition and every interest of humanity, than a deep, nation-widerevival of pure and undefiled religion. LETUS FRAY!

Open Letter to Mr. Brisbane.000000000<X>CXXKXXXXX>0000000�e30000�XX)

Louisville, Ky., July 4, 1930'.Mr. Arthur Brisbane,On the Wing.My Dear Arthur :

I OR some years, when I havepicked up a newspaper withyour paragraphs in it, I have al-

H;;-^::;;;^! ways read them; sometimes in-. <i>�:3iiJ formed, occasionally pleased,

frequently disgusted, and sometimes warmed with a bit of righteous indignation.Let me suggest a paragraph for your inter

esting column :

"A man is never wilfully lying when hebelieves himself to be telling the truth, however widely his statements may differ fromthe facts in the matter under consideration."I notice you are disposed to play upon a

statement supposed to be from one of Mr.Roosevelt's in-laws. You say her position will"make the prohibitionists sad." Not especially. Her influence on the subject does notamount to so much. It is unpleasant to see

any woman line up with the liquor interests,however small her influence may be.This good woman says too much. You

represent her as saying that "young girls(Continued on page 8)


WHY PROHIBITION HAS COME TO STAY.Clarence True Wilson, D. D.

"noted English ignoble, who violated our law in every citythrough which he traveled byseeking out bootleggers andbuying intoxicants, asked facetiously on leaving the country,

"When does this prohibition begin?"A little thought would have revealed the

fact that the colossal liquor trust had already been outlawed and is now under theban ; that the commonest thing in Americanlife, namely the manufacture, sale and drinking of intoxicants, has become "news." Whatwent on without the notice even of the policenow gets on the front page of the daily.Legalized and organized temptation has

been removed from the streets and pathwaysof men. A man can get liquor if he huntsit, but liquor no longer hunts him if he wantsto quit.The liquor power has been broken. The

days when Presidents were threatened ;judges were corrupted ; state and nationalconventions dominated by the liquor interests ; the faithful men in office defeated andbad men elected to take their place�theseare almost forgotten.The liquor traffic is now a cringing boot

legger, "raging because it hath but a shorttime."You know if you cut a chicken's head off

you increase its activity�but not its longevity.We used to spend Two and One-Half Bil

lions of Dollars for liquor every year. Whenthe war was over, the nations of Europedoubled their liquor bill. If we had doubledours, we should be spending Five Billions forbooze. The women took to drink just as themen had been following the public bars. Wehad the abnormal excitements and tendenciesof the war just like other countries. Why did

. we not double our liquor bill and have our

women and boys take to drink? Prohibitionsaved us. It came in the nick of time. TheProvidence of God timed it for America.Prohibition has absolutely transformed

the social customs and life of the poor, ofthe millions. If a man takes a drink ofwood alcohol and goes blind or dies, we allhear o!f it. To the most remote corner ofthe land it is published. In the old days,7,800 saloons could ply their trade in Chicagoall day and all night and all day Sundaywithout note or hindrance. They were nev

er mentioned unless they had a murder or

two to publish. Now one man with a hip-pocket flask can sell one drink and get frontpage space. That will be published, but notone word has been said about the millions on

millions who took the occasion in 1920 to quitdrinking.There are men who could not get by a

saloon, who have never been in one or soughtone or taken a drink of intoxicants since thenation went dry. Everybody knows some ofthese, but we never hear of them. They donot break into the press. They are loyaland sober American citizens. A few bootleggers are more talked about than all thesemillions.Yes, prohibition is here and it has wrought

marvels before our eyes. It has not finishedits work and that work has not been perfect,but prohibition at its worst has been betterthan license was at its best, and we proposeto see that it has as fair a chance and as longa trial to show what it can do as the license

system had. That was tried out for aboutone hundred and fifty years.

Some people speak of prohibition as an ex

periment. The truth is that everything elsewas experimented with first.We tried moderation but found that alco

holic liquor as a beverage was a narcotichabit-forming drug ; that moderation fed theranks of the immoderate.We tried using mild liquors but every

drink of the mild created a craving for thestrong�the distilled.We tried total abstinence from intoxicants

in all forms but found the evil was a socialmatter and that our safety depended almostas much on what the other man did as inwhat we did.We tried restrictions. The liquor traffic

violated every law for its regulation, its re

striction or its local prohibition.We tried it by States but the Federal Gov

ernment by .Interstate Commerce laws brokedown the State restrictions and permittedany outside State to import its liquor acrossthe dry lines, and Missouri and Nebraskabroke the morale of Kansas.Under this handicap we went on until we

had thirty-one States dry.It was time to make it a national policy.We had the vast majority of the people and

the vast majority of both Houses of Congress, but we never asked them to vote thenation dry. We took the most difficult modepossible, namely that of amending the Constitution, which requires three-fourths of allthe States in both Houses of their legisla^tures.Prohibition did not come until ninety-two

legislative bodies out of a possible ninety-sixhad ratified the amendment. This is themost overwhelming expression of the American people that has ever been given to anyone proposition since the government began,and those who ignore it and violate this lawmake the most excuseless attack not onlyupon our reform but our mode of Government and upon orderly government whereverfound. Disloyalty will not win this fight butthe law-abiding and loyal citizens will.Prohibition will stay because no citizen

would vote against it without looking backto see what he was voting for.If you abolish prohibition, you will have

to have the license system with all its cor

ruption of public morals, its putting up themorality and souls of men for sale for tainted revenue. You would have to have theBrewer's Association and the Distiller's Liquor League and put the wine merchants ofCalifornia again in the saddle.You would have the saloon, the public so

licitation to drinking, the treating system re

established, the tramping down of our Sunday laws in every city; the violation of ourmidnight closing ordinances ; the selling ofliquor to minors ; the harboring of women ;the re-establishment of the ladies' side en

trance; the brothel up-stairs; the gamblingaccompaniments.It is needless to say we will not stand

this.The same men who established these evils

and fought for them would be in control.Prohibition will stay with us because we

like the atmosphere, the type of men now

conducting politics, the cleaner order thanwe ever had in the old days. We are rid ofthose base and debasing men who used torepresent the saloon in the politics oif America; those Judges who stood in with the"gang" for their re-elections ; those Sheriffsand District Attorneys who made a scrap ofpaper of their oaths of office; those politicians who used to come from the slum voteof the cities, overwhelming the better element and getting to the legislatures, citycouncils and even into both Houses of Congress and by conduct that was a shame tomankind, misrepresenting a Christian nationand a decent people.The Association Against the Prohibition

Amendment is really inviting us back to that,but we will not accept the invitation.Prohibition has come to stay because a

new generation has come on the scene andthese young men and women, now voters,have been trained up in the public schoolsand know the nature of narcotics, intoxi

cants and opiates. They have been taughtthat booze is never a food but always a poison ; that the sale of it is not a business buta crime ; that rum rule is the ruin of popula-lar institutions.When I was a boy, living in Maryland, I

came to a word in my second reader, "Chattel-slavery." This was a strange lookingword. I came to my father and asked, "Papa, what is this word?" He replied, "Sondon't you know that word 'chattel'?"He took me upon his lap and told me about

the days of slavery, until my heart was inmy throat, and a glance at my face showedmy father that he had made too deep an impress upon his child, and changing his tone,he said, "Don't worry about that, my boy!Abraham Lincoln stopped all that and thereisn't a slave living under our flag."Prohibition will make it necessary for the

readers of this article to explain to their children some day what the liquor traffic usedto be; what the license system was; what arum seller was like ; what the Brewer's Association meant; what a drunkard used to be;what a lowdown, self-seeking, consciencelessliquor politician, representing the saloons forthe graft that came to him and the re-election they could assure, so low down that theywould have to jump up to touch bottom, socrooked that you would have to dig theirgrave with a cork-screw�we will have to tellour children what these things were whenthere isn't another one left in the UnitedStates even as a sample of the sad old dayswhen the wide open saloon set pit-falls forour young men, death traps for our younggirls, and corrupted public morals by thewholesale debauching of mankind.

Wet Money vs. Dry People.Mr. Henry Curran, head of the Association

Against the Prohibition Amendment, has en

lightened the people as well as the SenateJudiciary Committee by his remarkable testimony before that body.It seems that 60 per cent of the revenues

received by the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment during the first twomonths of 1930, were contributed by seven

men, three of whom are members of thesame family.Mr. Curran's own salary of $25,000 annu

ally is guaranteed by five wealthy contributors.Seventy-five per cent of the income of the

Association Against the Prohibition Amendment in recent months was derived from 53men.

Eighty-four per cent of the Association'sincome is contributed by citizens of NewYork, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Illinois.It appears, therefore, that a few men, rep

resenting a very small section of the population of our states, are financing an effort tochange the Constitution !The wealth and place of residence of these

men bring them into frequent social contactwith the editors and publishers of a few powerful periodicals which are carrying on a

propaganda against prohibition closely approaching the propaganda which immediately preceded the declaration of a state of warwith 'Germany.There is no popular uprising. There is no

spontaneous resentment against the prohibition law even in the few wet states. All ofthe apparent feeling against the dry law is,it appears, carefully incited by hired agentspossessing almost unlimited funds and acting on behalf of a few privileged families.These men possess great power. In their

communities are published periodicals of national circulation. In their communities,even the popular songs and popular slangoriginate. In their communities the plays are


written and produced. And they are attempting to range their communities againstthe remainder of America, to incite their people to deep feeling and obstructive action, todemonstrate that the common man of "theprovinces" may not expect by the use of hisballot to achieve effective decisions at thepolls.

Mr. Curran testified that a "revolt" was

under way. When asked if this revolt involved armed resistance to the United Stateshe said that that bridge woud be crossedwhen it was reached. He testified that ourgovernment is "murderous."It is amazing. Do these men think that

the citizens of Arkansas and Oregon andMontana and California and Indiana are so

stupid or so cowardly that they will permitmoney to defeat the popular will? Do theythink for one moment that these freemen,sons of the men of Valley Forge and York-

town, will surrender their right to participate effectively in their government?

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO'OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOC

PROHIBITION IS NO EXPERIMENT.

f^f^ ROHIBITION is no experiment.It is the settled policy of the re

public. It was decreed by thewill of the American people, evidenced by the adoption of the

_Eighteenth Amendment to the

Constitution by the favorable action of forty-six of the forty-eight sovereign common

wealths in the manner prescribed by thefathers. "This thing was not done in a cor

ner." It came into being, like all notable re

forms, through travail and conflict. The temperance societies of the early days, organizedby Christian men and women of all creeds,brought sharply to the public attention theevils of the drink habit. Public sentimentwas slowly but surely crystallized againstthe still and the saloon as the enemies of thehome and the Church. This eventuated inthe outlawry of the liquor traffic. The victories were hard won. They came first inthe town, then in the country, then the State,and then as a national method of extinctionof the manufacture, sale, and transportationor liquor. Step by step came the advance.The Eighteenth Amendment was ratified inthe fullness of time with a celerity and una

nimity more marked than in the case of other constitutional changes. Thus it becamean integral part of the Constitution of theUnited States.The goal was reached only by overcoming

many obstacles. At every point in the advance of the reform there was stubborn re

sistance. Every dry law was contested, andthe process of the courts was invoked by ev

ery possible appeal. None of the court procedures availed the opponents.From the day the Eighteenth Amendment

was ratified, the decisions of the UnitedStates Superme Court have been the bulwarkagainst all assaults. The temperance forces

rejoiced this month when that high court declared that the prohibition law was enactedto "suppress the entire traffic" and held that"the Act should be liberally construed to theend of this suppression."In the early period of the operation of na

tional prohibition, it was respected and generally observed. Nearly all the States adopted enforcement laws to carry out the man

date of "concurrent enforcement." Most people settled down to acceptance. The violations Oif the law were comparatively few.There was no general disrespect. There were

no scandals, no organized propaganda for repeal. It began to look as if this reform,which had been achieved after long struggle,would become acclimated and convert thisinto a sober nation.Later there came a time when violations in

high places heartened the lawless.. Inefficientenforcement encouraged violators. Easymoney in making and selling stimulated both.Men who flouted the law were in some in

stances selected to enforce it. Nullificationwas invoked. Violation escaped punishment.The powerful did not fear exposure. Thenfollowed organized propaganda made possible by mobilized money to stampede the

country into the belief that the law could notbe successfully carried put. The programof the organized opposition has been to violate the law themselves and to suggest toothers a like course. They urge repeal as

'better than the widespread contempt for law,for which they are responsible. Their plan

Josephus Daniels

is to create a condition of lawlessness andthen demand that government and law abdicate.Today there is, therefore, a serious chal

lenge to prohibition as a principle and a policy. The issue is joined: Shall the outlawedsaloon be restored to its former place? Itwas the clearing house of the forces of unrighteousness. By its patronage of everyvice that degrades, the saloon invited destruction. It now asks to come back underan alias. The only ultimate alternative toprohibition is the saloon. Those who imaginethere is some halfway house, or any othersubstitute for prohibition are deceivingthemselves. The suggestion of governmentmanufacture and sale through dispensariesoffers no real alternative. The experiencewith the dispensary in State and city is thatit does not decrease the consumption of intoxicants or reduce drunkenness or lessencorruption.We declare our enlistment for the war

against the "drink habit." Prohibition came

about to end the evil of strong drink. Weurge upon all our members personal observance of the law. Total abstinence is the bestand only safety. We call upon our preachersand leaders to be instant in season and outof season in the education of the people con

cerning the injury to the body and to thesoul of those who look upon the wine when itis red, and to-reiterate the Biblical truth thatat last "it biteth like a serpent and stingethlike an adder." Consideration of health andefficiency, as well as morals, are all on theside of total abstinence. Christian peoplecannot with consistency urge the burden ofenforcement on government when they failto do their duty as to observance of the law.We firmly set our faces against any reces

sion from the constitutional outlawry of theliquor traffic. We highly resolve to enlist ourevery power to maintain in full force theEighteenth Amendment and all laws of Stateand nation for its observance and enforcement. We pledge our sincere support to allofficials of the law, from the lowest to thehighest, who are vigilantly using their bestendeavors to end violations of this and alllaws. We will never surrender the advancemade for national sobriety. No retreat shallbe sounded.We appeal to the American press, power

ful agency in making public sentiment, toconsecrate its power to upholding respect forthis and all laws, to help strengthen thehands of those to whom enforcement is com

mitted, and to aid in pushing back the tideof law defiance which threatens to sweepaway that respect for law which is the lifeof the republic.And we call upon all those who believe in

sobriety and who respect the law and theConstitution to buckle on their armor. Wehave won in all points of law; we propose to

fight on in this great cause until this hasbeen made in fact as in law a sober nation.We hereby reaffirm the declarations of the

General Conference of 1918, 1922, and especially of 1926, on the attitude of our Churchtoward prohibition, and we record our approval and endorsement of the leadershipand work of our Board of Temperance andSocial Service to accomplish the purpose ofthose declarations.We approve and affirm the following

declaration in the episcopal address: "TheMethodist Episcopal Church, South, professes no political creed. It is not and cannotbe affiliated with any political party. It gladly embraces within its membership men andwomen of all political parties and of all political creeds. The Church, as such, can haveno alliance with partisan politics and politicians. And it had no advice to give its mem

bership with reference to their party affiliations. All this is quite beyond the sphere ofthe Church. But the Church does standas the eternal enemy of unrighteousness ofevery name and every form. And we shouldlet it be everywhere known that wheneverany institution or organization becomes thefriend and patron of the liquor traflJic, or encourages the violation of the ProhibitionAmendment, the Methodist EpiscopalChurch, South, will be found in the future, asin the past, battling against iniquity and onthe side of personal and public righteousness."To this declaration of our episcopal lead

ers we would add our clear and definite aflir-mation of the inalienable right of everymember, whether minister or layman, of ourChurch to oppose and vote against any candidate who fails to stand for the principlesherein advocated and approved.

In_ conclusion, we urge our people to selectpublic officials who believe in enforcement"not only because prohibition is the law, butbecause it ought to be the law."�AlabamaChristian Advocate.

"Break the Law" Proclamation of WetsArouses cry of "Treason" and

Demand for Punishment.Open defiance of the law urged in the lat

est nation wide propaganda of the wets hasresulted in the branding of this "Break theLaw" proclamation as an act of treason anda demand for punishment for those responsible for this attempt to incite the Americanpublic to show their contempt for law andorder.The cause of this new conflict was an arti

cle written by Corey Ford, which later wasused as a basis for national advertising. Inthis article he said :

"Personally, I should like to call on everyfree-thinking American of my generation,and every American of the older generationwho can think at all, to break this law ; breakit repeatedly; break it whenever he can.Drink what you please, when you please!Urge others to drink. Don't betray the bootleggers who ara smuggling liquor for you. Inevery way possible flaunt your defiance ofthe Eighteenth Amendment. Render it inoperative. Ignore it, abrogate it, wipe it out.Whilst it stands there, let it be disobeyed."As a challenge to what it characterizes as

a national incitement to anarchy the American Business Men's Prohibition Foundationthrough its president, Charles R. Jones, asked for the sentiment of prominent men inevery walk of life. Practically the consensusof opinion was that this attempt to urgeAmerican citizens to break the law was nothing short of treason.Here are some of the statements sent to

the Prohibition Foundation :



Dr. Clarence True Wilson's SpeecK in Darrow Debate.PROHIBITION SUCCEEDS.

T is beyond controversy tliatwhen prohibition came to thiscountry, wages began to rise,savings to accumulate, thestandard of living of the averageman to mount; bank accounts

multiplied and automobiles were at everybody's command. The man who could notget by the corner saloon with his pay checkin his pocket, now takes his family out andspends the earnings for "Mollie and thebaby." The sovereign citizens of this nationwill never consent for the government to as

sume a financial interest in the debaucheryof its citizens again. It will neither licenseit, nor have a government-owned liquor business. Before the United States tried prohibition, it tried every conceivable form of regulation, license, local option, and they allfailed. A fair-minded man will insist thatour country now be given a fair chance tocrush this evil which has oppressed the human race since the dawn of history, andwe will insist that prohibition be given as

fair a chance and as long a time to showwhat it can do for the people as the licensesystem had.You can sneer at prohibition prosperity

and say it was really brought to us by thewar. AH the war brought to us was a thirtybillion dollar debt and a lot of ingratitudefrom European countries.. True, we madeabout six billions of dollars extra before we

got into the war ourselves, but then we gotinto it and wasted all of that in a year and a

lot more. And yet they say that the war

brought prosperity.You can't get away from this if'act: that

there were 350,000 college students in 1919and about one milllion today, and that theincrease in the very first year of prohibitionwas phenomenal. You can't get away fromthe fact that savings deposits, building andloan savings, the consumption of fruit andmilk and fresh vegetables all took a mightyleap upward in the same year that prohibition came to the country. You can't get

, away from the fact that wages raised tremendously then and have stayed up ever

since. All down the line we find that 1920when prohibition came was the dividingpoint, and that in that crucial year our prosperity simply surged forward so that thecommon man in America today a^ the resultof prohibition lives better than the common

man ever lived before in any country God'ssun ever shone on.

WHAT ABOUT THE "LOBBY"Mr. Darrow objects to "The Moral Lobby

in Washington." He calls our MethodistBuilding "the Vatican." We have lobbiesifor labor and for capital ; for peace and forwar preparedness ; for Jewish welfare andCatholic interests; for tariff, low and high;for more laxity and for better enforcement;for Prohibition and the Association Againstthe Eighteenth Amendment; for all sorts ofliquor permits. Why not one for law observance, good order, and public morals?The Constitution of the United States

makes ample provision for it. The FirstAmendment of the Bill of Rights says : "Congress shall not establish any form of religion or prohibit the free exercise thereof." NoChurch, therefore, need seek to establish itself as a favored religion of the State nor

may Congress restrict its full expression inthe exercise of its rights and freedom.But the First Amendment does not stop

there. Congress is further prohibited iftomrestricting our American rights "of free

speech," "free press," "the right of callingpublic assemblies," and "of petitioning Con

gress for the redress of grievances." TheConstitution sets up four corner-posts withinwhich all lobbyists, all propagandists, all

agitators must confine themselves. They

have all the rights inside and none outsidethose limits. I maintain that the dry forces,the Protestant Church representatives, theso-called moral lobbyists, have so far never

stepped outside the lines indicated by thosefour posts. We have exercised free speech,we have used the free press, we have calledand conducted public assemblies; and we

have petitioned the government for the re

dress of grievances.Our Church will never surrender its rights

within those limits, nor apologize to anyonefor using them to promote any good cause.

The Board of Temperance of the MethodistChurch has been criticised by innocent people who hold up other sects as good examplesto us. What these good people don't knowabout churches would fill a big book. Thecharge of lobbying has fallen flat. Therehave been no "secret" interviews ; the Boardhas no secret purposes or methods ; it neverseeks an office for any Methodist or Protestant because he is either or his removal because he isn't; it never asks a dollar of government appropriation, or an exemptionfrom taxes for its property. In short, it seeksnothing for itself or its denomination, but isin Washington to work for the Public Welfare. And yet there are some people who getindignant at the padlocking of speakeasies,but unblushingly advocate the padlocking ofour pulpits. 'There is no accounting fortastes. They know that the bootleg trade getsits inspiration from the still house, and itshope of immortality from the still church.A church that would stand still and see the

rum traffic re-established or the bootleggertake this country would be unworthy of theblessing of God or the respect of decent menand women. The Church is not simply hereto get people to Heaven, but to make this a

better world here and now. The Churchhas had many free lectures of late as to itsspiritual functions. It might be supposedthat the Church itself would know aboutthese fully as well as its unspiritual critics,whose sole use for the Church, which theynever attend or support, is to keep it out ofthe arena so that they can do as they pleasein exploiting the public.If I wished to prove to the world that the

Church of Jesus Christ is not dead or dyingor recreant or indifferent- to the world'sneeds, I could think of no more strikingproof that it is alive and alert, conscientiousand constructive as to present-dsy needsthan its recent historic adventure when itcommitted itself with all its interests andinfluence, its popularity and prospects, to theprohibition of the liquor traffic in the UnitedStates and announced its program to extendit around the world. The Church has led inthis reform. It has paid the bills ; it has furnished the men and women ; it has made thesacrifice and it takes the full responsibilityfor such leadership. It puts up no white fiagtoday. This world is not big enough to holdin peace the militant church of Jesus Christto save men and the licensed liquor trafl^cwith its open saloons to destroy them andtheir children.The wet propagandists will keep on until

they succeed in again waking up the Church,and when they do, they will seal their doom ;we will beat the wets in the argument; wewill beat them with the facts; we will beatthem with the work and sacrifices of tne com

mon people; we will beat them with votes.We will heat them until there isn't a saloon,a license, or an open enemy of the EighteenthAmendment left, and Abraham Lincoln'sprayer will be answered�"A whole worldand not a slave or a drunkard, or a drunkardmaker in it."I am surprised that Mr. Darrow would

speak irreverently of the Vatican or anything it does. Perhaps he means the reference as a compliment. It took the Catholicworld 1900 years to build up that institution.

Our little building is only six years old�justold enough to start to school.

TWO DISTINCT PROBLEMS.It is hardly fair for an able and discrimi

nating lawyer to come here with a personalliberty argument, when he knows that weare not discussing total abstience, or temperance, or moderation, or the scientific effect of alcohol upon the human system, oranything else that hears on liquor drinking.We are discussing prohibition, and any ar

gument bearing on total abstinence, or moderation, or intemperance, or personal libertyis�as the lawyers say�immaterial, incompetent, and irrelevant.There are two things with which we have

to deal in the temperance reform�^the private appetite and the public traffic.The private appetite is an individual mat

ter. It is governed by taste, inclination, as

sociation, education, persuasion, judgment,conscience, will�and a man can discuss thequestion of personal liberty in its bearing onthis private appetite and he may, or may not,be right. But it has no bearing, or relevancy to the question of what to do vnth the liquor traffic. That is a subject for law. Noidea that Mr. Darrow has expressed on personal liberty or the right to drink has anyrelation whatever to what the public good re

quires should be done with the liquor traffic.The saloon, the brewery, the distillery, thewinery, are public matters, regulated Or suppressed by law, and the question now is notwhether I have a right to drink intoxicatingliquor, but whether I have a right to open an

institution objectionable to the coihmunityand sell it upon the public market to any whowill buy ; whether I have a right to sell it allday Sunday and election day and all nightlong. If I have not, then the law has theright to regulate the hours and the days. Ifit has a right to regulate, it has a right torestrict, and if restriction does not meet thecase, it has a right to prohibit absolutely. Acreature of law can be suppressed by law.Mr. Darrow has a right to eat diseased

meat. That is a part of his personal liberty.But he has no right to open a butcher shopand put diseased or rotten meat on the market. That comes to be a question of the publicwelfare; and society, organized into municipal government, has the regulation of thatmatter. I have a right to drive an automobile. There is no intrinsic wrong in drivingrapidly, but if I go forty miles an hourthrough a crowded street, it becomes thecity's affair. My personal liberty must endwhere the public good begins ; and, as civilization becomes more complicated, its citizensmore and more congregated into cities, themargin of the public rights moves up againstthe public rights and personal liberty becomes a very much smaller inclosure than itwould be if we were living a Robinson-Crusoelife on an island by ourselves.Some philosopher has said : "I have a right

to swing my fist, but that right stops ex

actly where your nose begins." Mr. Darrowought to get once and for all, a clear distinction between the private appetite and thepublic traffic and recognize the difference inthe arguments that bear on these subjects.Personal liberty applies to one, but it has no

reference to the other. Moral suasion, scientific enlightenment, have to do with what a

man shall drink, but what he puts on themarket becomes a public question and it isto be regulated by law, and after a hundredyears of experimenting, the law has finallyin its evolution come to the absolute prohibition of that which is hurtful and wrong tosociety. It regulates the grocery businessand the drygoods business; it regulates theproduction of oil, gas, electricity and power ;but when it comes to drunkard making, dopepeddling, maintaining a gambling resort ora brothel, the law uses its prerogative inprohibiting the maintenance of the same aa


public nuisances detrimental to the publicwelfare and subversive of the interests ofthe state.If Mr. Darrow claims that while the liquor

traffic does produce evil, it is a necessary evil,I call his attention to the decision that Mr.Dooley gave to Mr. Hennessey. He said:"There are no necessary evils. If they are

necessary, they are not evils ; and if they are

evils, they are not necessary."CHRIST AND WINE.

Mr. Darrow says that Christ made wine. Ihaven't the least objection to Mr. Darrow'smaking wine, providing he makes it out ofwater as Christ did. Mr. Darrow, like a lotof other anti-prohibitionists, puts his five-cent glass of beer above everything. TheAmerican people are trying to deal with one

of the greatest problems the human race hasever confronted and here comes Mr. Darrowgalloping down the street with an emptyglass held high and bawling for five centsworth of beer. I don't particularly carewhether Mr. Darrow gets his beer or not, butI object to his cramming a vast corrupt liquor traffic down my throat in order that heshall have his beer. I don't believe five centsworth of beer is more important to him thana, baby's life is to the baby, or than prosperity is to the United States.Mr. Darrow's description of Noah is amus

ing. Noah was a good man who in old agehad gone wrong. He is a bad example forMr. Darrow to follow.Mr. Darrow objects to one-half of one per

cent._

That's just wet fanaticism. The trouble with these wets is they have the rabies.They can't even stand the sight of water. Mr.Darrow told you about Old Man Noah whogot so sick of the sight of water that the firstthing he did when the rain stopped was toget drunk. Well, the Bible holds him up as ahorrible example. The fact is that these wetshate water a lot worse than we hate alcohol.We don't care if Mr. Darrow drinks a barrelof alcohol, provided he'll dl-ink 200 barrels ofwater with it. The way he talks you wouldthink he needed 200 barrels of water or

something else to calm the unquenchable fireof his thirst.Now you wets out there ; I want to say this

to you: Joking is all right and humor is allright, and perhaps hoots and jeers are allright sometimes, provided there are not toomany of them in the same place. But whenyou come to consider your duty to your country, it cannot be determined by jokes or

jeers. You will have to admit this : that theUnited States tried moral suasion and totalabstinence, local option, state f)rohibition,high license, and government control in atleast one of thp states, and that for over a

hundred years every remedy which was triedfor this evil was a lamentable failure. Thetraffic went right ahead, debauching theyoung, taking 'bread from the mouths of children, destroying homes and inflicting uponthe country a great burden of poverty. Why,then, when the United States, in despairturned to the only other remaining hope ofdealing successfully with this problem, someof you wets say, "To hell with the Constitution ; you can't take my beer." And you propose to break down this experiment by resistance to the law. You may be wets, but I believe that down at the bottom you are patriots. Is it a square deal that you give yourcountry when you say to Uncle Sam, "Wedon't intend to let you test this thing to see

whether it is good or not. We are going tomake it a failure even if we have to resort tocrime and the commission of crime to do it."Suppose the United States is wrong? Whatof it? It's making an honest effort. It ishonestly intended and prohibition came afterit was an issue in thousands of local and stateelections. Don't you think the United Stateshas a right to a fair chance to try this thingout and see whether or not this last hope willprove to be a great hope of the human race?I want to remind you of this : that every

thing you hold precious in life exists underthe protection of the government which some

of these wet brethren want you to defy.When your wife goes down the street shegoes under the protection of the law. Youown your house under the protection of thelaw. Your children are kept in safety whenthey go to school or the corner grocery by themighty hands of the United States. And yetthe people who want to restore the legalizedliquor traffic are willing to break down thestandards of this land which protect youand your wife and your children and yourproperty, all because some people think theywant to have a glass of beer. It is personalwhim against the Public Welfare

Put Teetk in Prohibition Enforcement.

Hon. Arthur Capper, Senator from Kansas.

eXX>OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGOOOOO

^^T^'^ am supporting the pending^^jiJa^y amendments to the national pro-y^^^^^J^ hibition act because they will

^^M^Aflj; undoubtedly be of great assist-Rs^S^^^Sg ance in bringing about more ef

fective enforcement of our liquor laws.I do not share the opinion of those who

say that prohibition cannot he enforced. Itcan he enforced, and we have demonstratedthat fact in Kansas, where we nad prohibition for more than forty years before the en

actment of the national law. We are now

passing through the experimental, stage ofenforcement in the Nation that we had in theearly days of enforcement in Kansas underthe State law.In the beginning, many Kansas business

men were not in symypathy with prohibitionbecause they thought it would "hurt business." Other good citizens honestly thoughtthe move was unwise; but they have longsince recognized the benefits of prohibition,and the question is no longer an issue in theState. An overwhelming majority of our

people consider prohibition as one of thegreatest blessings ever bestowed on the Statethrough legislation.I say just as emphatically that prohibition

can be enforced in the Nation, and we havealready made progress in that direction. Itmay take as much as 20 years to make en

forcement effective ; but, even if it does, theywill be years well spent, and from whichposterity will reap untold benefits.It is the wet and lawless cities more than

any other part of the country that are theplague spots which need cleaning up and thatneed the sharp prod of the law; and enforcing prohibition will help rather than hinderthat work.Kansas has had prohibition for half a cen

tury. It spent many years in experimentingand pioneering in this reform, gradually perfecting the Kansas law. Earnest enforcement of the law in Kansas dates back 20years, after its increasing benefits could no

longer be denied.Some of the eastern and big-city enemies

of prohibition say if theiprohibition law were

made more liberal they would be satisfied,and the more liberal law would be obeyed.Kansas has been through all that. The truthis that no law in any way regulating the saleof liquor has ever been obeyed anywhere bykeepers of saloons or of public houses. .

For years prohibition was not enforced inKansas, nor even halfway enforced ; but eventhen the benefits began to show. The peoplebecame converted to the dry cause, and got inearnest about prohibition. They passed a

bone-dry law. They began ousting ifrom office city and county attorneys and mayorswho were lax or were wet sympathizers. For25 years prohibition has been a fact in Kansas, and now it is a permanent part of itsState and National creed.Kansas does not want and would not toler

ate modification. Liquor is an outlaw within her borders. She is 47 years removedfrom the thought of legalizing the saloon.

Conviction of violators is easier than in thepast because public sentiment has been crystallized. Kansas ofl^cials and private citizensare agreed that prohibition is the State's bestbusiness asset. If Kansas could enforce prohibition with wet States all around it, as ithad to do then. New York or any other Statecan.

"One of the most astonishing transformations in economic history is the progressmade in industry in the United States duringthe last five years," wrote Secretary Hooverin the 1925 annual report of the UnitedStates Department of Commerce. Mr. Hoovermentioned prohibition as one of the chiefcauses of that transformation, and few bigmanufacturers in the United States will disagree with that statement.I think we can lay a considerable share of

this Nation's abounding good fortune toeight years of national prohibition superimposed on many more years of prohibition bythe States ; to the tremendous increase in our

industrial efficiency resulting largely therefrom ; to the rise in the last eight years of anew and hitherto lacking nation-wide thrift,which seems but another outcome of thissame cause, and which, as Mr. Hoover pointsout, finds us in this year of our ijord the besthoused, the best fed, the best clothed peoplethat ever inhabited the earth.If the opponents of prohibition succeed in

bringing back the sale of wine and beer, thelawbreaking saloon will as surely come backas that water will run down hill. The Province of Ontario, Canada, legalized 4 per centbeer. Within 60 days or less the brewers ofthis beer were violating the law. Ontariofound the drinkers were no more contentwith 4 per cent beer than they were before.So it would be in the United States. Insteadof a comparatively few bootleggers breakingthe law, we would have thousands upon thousands of saloons ; and if each saloon had one

policeman to watch it the law would still beviolated as regularly and without question as

it was when that odoriferous institution waswith us.

We need go no further back than the re

cent election to discover that the great majority of the people of this country�not anypraticular section, or class, or party, but justthe mass of the people�believe in the Eighteenth Amendment and in the enforcementof its provisions. To my mind, the nationalelection of 1928 constitutes a mandate to theGovernment of the United States to make theprohibition amendment effective; not to attempt to repeal or evade it.I have seen various experiments tried to

regulate the drink evil�high license, localoption. State dispensaries. Prohibition hon-

'

estly enforced has by far proved the most effective remedy, and national prohibition wasthe logical outcome after half a century ofexperimenting.I wish to repeat, it is not a change back to

the free use of intoxicating liquor that we

need, but fair and square 'prohibition en

forcement. Prohibition is not now so mucha question of laws or changes in laws. It israther a question of law observance and lawenforcement. The all-important job aheadfor American citizens at this time is to educate ourselves to observe the Constitutionand obey the laws of our country, and tomake the fight necessary to see that the Constitution is observed and the laws enforcedon all alike.Prohibition enforcement now is a chal

lenge to public ofl[icials�Federal, State, andlocal�from one end of the land to the other.It is a challenge also to the loyalty of thecommon man to his Government. We havenever had a greater opportunity to do a finerservice for our country than today�byshowing through speech and action a decentrespect for its laws and its Constitution.Prohibition has not had a fair trial. The bigcities have not made an honest effort to enforce it. It can be enforced if Federal, State,

United States Senator Lynn J. Frazier, ofNorth Dakota�"It is the most anarchisticdeclaration I have ever seen in print. Certainly no right-minded citizen can seriouslyapprove the arguments in this article."United States Senator C. C. Dill, of Wash

ington�"I am not sure but what the placingof such an advertisement in a newspapermight be in violation of law as an act thatabets and encourages the commission ofcrime, and for that reason I have referred itto the U. S. Attorney General for his attention."United States Senator Morris Sheppard, of

Texas�"The article by Corey Ford embodiesa policy of thought and action which wouldmean the destruction of all that has beenachieved for freedom and progress throughout the past, a policy leading to anarchy, barbarism and chaos."Dr. Harvey W. Wiley�"Prompt and vig

orous action should be taken against this,which is nothing less than a second Whisky Rebellion.' George Washington madeshort work of the first, and I hope that President Hoover will make equally short work ofthis one. A term of 15 or 20 years in jailand fines of $10,000 or $15,000 would be a

proper answer to such treasonable utterances."Robert Treat Paine, great-great-great-

grandson of Robert Treat Paine, signer ofthe Declaration of Independence�"Suchsentiments are calculated to impair American civic integrity. So brazen and despicableare they in their betrayal of the country'slaws that even Scarfare Al Capone mightwell object to these Corey Fords beinggrouped as 'Caponsitas'."Congressman M. C. Garber, of Oklahoma

�"Publication of such law-breaking propaganda should be proceeded against in theUnited States District Court by injunctionproceedings, and any United States DistrictAttorney who fails to take action after suchdisloyal utterances have been called to hisattention should be dismissed from the publicservice."J. Stanley Durkee, pastor of Plymouth

Church, Brooklyn�"Anyone who calls uponthe public to flaunt or break the law is a

traitor to the American government."Willis J. Abbott, journalist�"It is a posi

century ago."Bishop William F. Anderson of the Meth

odist Episcopal Church�"I regard this article as seditious and traitorous."Bishop James E. Freeman of Washington

�"To advocate disobedience of the law is a

grave offense, and such an attitude, if widelyobserved, would threaten the very security ofgovernment itself."

National Prohibition.What are the facts with regard to public

opinion and the Eighteenth Amendment? Be

fore that Amendment was adopted, 75 percent of all the counties in the United States,80 per cent of all the villages, and 85 percent of all the townships, were already un

der prohibition by local or State legislativeprovisions. Before National Prohibition was

adopted, two-thirds of the members of the

United States Senate and 70 per cent of the

members of the lower House of Congress, satin Washington representing prohibitionStates and prohibition Congressional dis

tricts. Sixty-eight per cent of the populationof the nation lived in territory from which

the liquor traffic had already been banished

by law. The United States Senate by a vote

of 65 to 20, and the National House of Representatives by a vote of 282 to 128, submitted the prohibition amendment to the several

States. Both houses of each of 46 State

Legislatures ratified that amendment. Therewere only two States that did not ratify theAmendment.

The Literary Digest Straw Vote.Rev. a. S. Hunter.

The final report of the Literary Digeststraw vote on national prohibition gives thefollowing totals :

For enforcement�1,464,098, or 30.4 percent., plus.For modification�1,399,314, or 29 percent., plus.For repeal�1,943,052, or 40.4 per cent.,plus.The last two items make above 69 per cent,

or more than two-to-one that are opposed toenforcement of prohibition. That looks rath-

, er bad for prohibition, doesn't it? Yes, as

far as those who returned the Digest ballotsare concerned.Of the 20,000,000 ballots sent out, less than

5,000,000, as shown by the above totals, or

less than one-fourth, were returned. And thenumber returned is less than one-eighth ofthe number who voted in November, 1928.Also the three-and-a-third millions (the 60per cent, as above) who voted against en

forcement, are about one in 13 of the fullvote of the country. When the other 12 votenext November, what will they say? Maybethat does not look quite so bad for prohibition.Then, what about the 15,193,536 who re

ceived Digest ballots, but did not vote them?Why did they not vote them ? It cost nothingexcept a pencil mark. Are they wet or dry?Who knows? Do you imagine that 10,483,-439 enemies of enforcement (69 per cent, asabove, of the missing ballots) neglected sucha chance to register their sentiment againstprohibition? It is a safe guess that, of themore than 15,000,000 people who threw theDigest ballots in the waste basket, nine-tenths are dry! In a word, it is most prob-ble that three-fourths of the whole wouldhave been for enforcement!Why did not the more than 15,000,000

vote? Probably because the great mass ofour American people are�^first, fed up on

"straw" and can't "digest" any more; andsecond, they sensed at once that the Digestpoll was wet propaganda, and ignored it. Butthey will report at the ballot box in November, when their ballots will not be straw !Again the returns show that the great vol

ume of the ballots returned came from thefew States and the big cities having the largeforeign population. That indicates quiteclearly that the foreign wets, as a rule, vo

ted ; while the American drys discarded thething! There are indications that comparatively few women and church people receivedDigest ballots. Some tests made in publicchurch congregations showed that but a

small proportion of the people present, andalmost no women, had received ballots.The recent primary election in Pennsyl

vania is suggestive here. Mr. Phillips, theDemocratic candiate for nomination for Governor, was openly and avowedly wet ; and declared for the repeal of prohibition. Mr.Brown, the Republican machine candidatefor the same, was also wet, but not openlyand avowedly so. He wanted to hold boththe wet and dry vote of his party, and declared for a referendum of the voters of theState. Mr. Pinchot, an independent Republican candidate for the same office, was openlyand avowedly dry, and has been known as

such always.Of course Phillips, being unopposed, was

nominated by the Democrats. Brown car

ried six out of 67 counties, with a majorityover Pinchot of more than 200,000. That included Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and otherlarge cities and the sections which are

strongly foreign. In the other 61 countiesPinchot beat Brown, and won the nominationby a small majority, about 12,000. That indicates who are the wets, and where they

are found ; and it coincides with the Digestpoll on that one point.It is now plain to all, as many knew in ad

vance, that the Digest poll is utterly worthless as a criterion of the real wet and drysentiment of the people of the United States.A like poll by the same paper in 1922 wasalso shown to be wide of the mark. Our people are mostly enough independent and fearless to vote as they believe, without waitingto be told in advance which will be the winning side. The Digest will hardly repeat thefiasco again !


Teaching of Law Defiance BecomesNation Wide Program.

OOOOGOCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

1^^^^ URRENT developments of liquorf^^^^^ propaganda should awaken the

\wm^^^L. �o^^ indifferent friends of Na-

1^^^^^^ tional Prohibition to militantaction."If there were no way for the

friends of the Eighteenth Amendment to effectively meet this situation the failure ofNational Prohibition would indeed be cer

tain."The facts regarding the benefits of the

Federal Law wherever it has beert fairly administered, wherever the press has loyallysupported it, are convincing proof of thevalue of the amendment. But these factsshould be marshalled so that millions of otherwise intelligent, well-meaning Americancitizens can see them and thus be able toform a fair opinion of their merit."There is no question as to where the

great majority of American citizens wouldstand if the true facts of Prohibition in operation as a safeguard of home life, a boon toindustry, and a bulwark of protectionagainst the return of the once all-powerfuland gigantic liquor trust can be fairly presented to their thoughtful consideration."Whatever is being done for law-enforce

ment, for the retention of "dry" law makersand the prosecution of liquor criminals,�allmust depend for their continued success, upon the strengthening of public sentiment andthe education of the whole people as to thetrue constructive values already revealedand inherent in more adequately establishedadministration of the Eighteenth FederalAmendment."This is the faith and conviction of the

American Business Men's Prohibition Foundation.Chicago, May 5�"The greatest mistake

that could possibly be made at the presenthour by the friends of National Prohibitionis to continue the deluding game of Polly.Anna alibis, the too favorite indoor sport ofAmerica's careless good citizenship," todaydeclared Charles R. Jones, Chairman of theAmerican Business Men's Prohibition Foundation, in commenting upon the attitude ex

pressed by many well meaning editors andwriters in the Foundation's personal correspondence.To say that the Anti-Prohibition propa

ganda of the past six months, now growingdaily both in emphasis and extent, is a "puffof smoke," a "flash in the pan" of disgruntled "wets," that nobody pays any attentionto the flood of misrepresentation still pouring from the publicity offices of the Anti-Prohibition organizations, as many personsare doing at the present time, is not onlyabsurd, it is positively dangerous to the future welfare of the Prohibition law and is an

example of the simile of the classic ostrichwith his head submerged in the desert sandto escape the coming storm.

WHAT NATIONAL PROHIBITION FACES."National Prohibition, as a part of the

Federal Constitution, seems to be in no immediate danger," continued Mr. Jones, "butsomething worse even than its repeal willhappen if the liquor forces succeed in achiev-


ing its immediate goal. That goal is the widedeception of the people of America by cleverand continuous misrepresentation, clothed inevery possible form of approach to the publiceye and ear.

"During the past thirty days no less than5,000 columns of fresh and ingeniously pre

pared Anti-Prohibition news editorial matter have been given a circulation reaching byconservative estimate 50,000,000 readers,three-fourths of whom no doubt are men andwomen without bias and willing to supportefficient Prohibition administration unlessconfused and misled by the perversions andfabrications of liquor's allied apologists. OnWednesday, May 7, began the ninth con

secutive week of display Anti-Prohibitionadvertising in the Nation's leading dailies.So far, more than 6,000,000 copies of thesevicious full-page Anti-Prohibition advertisements have appeared in approximately 35leading dailies, published in 35 cities so se

lected as to reach directly nearly 25,000,000readers in practically every one of the 48states. These full-page ads have been prepared by brilliant advertising writers andeven as a lie travels a thousand times fasterthan the truth, so it is difficult for the factsand concrete data of Prohibition to followspeedily enough to at once checkmate thepositive influence for nulliflcation. Paid forin advance and based upon current advertising rates costing to date close to $100,000.00,it is announced this week by the Life magazine, the comic wet weekly which is standing sponsor for the campaign, that up toApril 20 some 20,405 people have voluntarilycontributed in cash over $2.00 a piece for thefurther publication of these display attacks."Oontributions are coming in so fast it isimpossible to enumerate them all," exclaimsLife in a recent issue.Meanwhile the Association Against the

Prohibition Amendment is mailing its violently worded assaults upon Prohibition directly to the Nation's 100,000 ministers un

der such titles as "Reforming America WithA Shot Gun" (a closely printed 48-pagepamphlet;) "Scandals Of Prohibition Enforcement" published March 1, 19-29, (a 42-page re-hash of every charge of corruptionmade against Prohibition officials in recentyears;) "The Eighteenth Amendment Not ARemedy For The Drink Evil" a Pierre duPont outburst; and among others a broadside entitled "'The States Are Not Under Obligation To Enforce Prohibition" a directcounsel of nullification and open refusal ofofficial support for the Eighteenth Amendment.The Literary Digest poll totalling to date

3,705,742 actual ballots returned, may or

may not represent the exact, relative proportion of all voters friendly or opposed to Prohibition. But all qualifications aside, the factremains that, 612,997, a fraction over 70%of the votes returned are recorded for the re

peal of Prohibition or the legalization of thesale of beers and "light" wines. To be sure,

analysis of the vote shows that 97% of the

plurality favoring straight repeal are locatedin the five wet states of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Illinois.But this is a majority registered ten yearsafter National Prohibition went into theFederal Constitution by a ratification of 48states to 2 opposed. Excuses and explanations do not and cannot change or obscurethe seriousness of this situation. As this isbeing written comes the information that49,614 bankers, 19,776 ministers, 61,761 educators, 44,629 lawyers, and 45,803 physicianshave registered their stand for legalizing thesale of beer and wines, or for the completerepeal of Prohibition..

WHAT "wet" propaganda HAS DONE.

The overwhelming majority of good citizens in the United States believe in NationalProhibition, but concrete evidence of such a

fact is tremendously needed. Three effectsof wet propaganda which for many monthshas gone practically unchallenged and un

answered except for the brief period of theHouse Judiciary Committee hearings, are

self-evident :1. It has spread misinformation and un

informed hostility to Prohibition far andwide throughout the country.

2. It has kept millions, especially in our

large cities, ignorant of the practical purposes and values of Prohibition where honestlyadministered.

3. It has encouraged nullification, incitedlaw defiance. Vicious editorials in great papers circulating by the million have repeatedly declared that the Prohibition Amendment is not law, is a violation of the Constitution, and deserves the respect of no citizen.Every bootlegger and speakeasy keeper willdrink the health of such editors and fairlyclaim the right to exist when millionaire publishers and educated writers abet their criminal acts.The situation is serious. But the strength

of Prohibition rests in the facts which proveits value wherever it has had a fair chance.Public sentiment will support it and willoverwhelm liquor apologists once these factsare adequately presented. There is no needto fear the result, nor the future, if only thefriends of the Eighteenth Amendment willunite to put across a nation-wide educationalmovement to the millions who have been misled and stand confused today."ANYTHING TO BEAT DRY LAW"�WET PLAT

FORM.

The above headline appeared in large typein the Chicago Herald-Examiner, and refersto the Anti-Prohibition campaign announce

ment of Ruth Baker Pratt, candidate for reelection to Congress from a New York district. But the phrase seems a most appropriate keynote for the Anti-Prohibition developments of the week. Here for fnstanceare two of them, selected by the EconomicResearch Service from the daily records be

ing compiled at the headquarters of theAmerican Business Men's Prohibition Foundation, 7 S. Dearborn St., Chicago.President Curran not Exactly Clear as to

"Remedy.''' The reply of President HenryH. Curran, of the Association Against Prohibition, to the question of Senator Robinsonof Indiana at the hearing of the UnitedStates Senate Lobby Investigating Committee, Wednesday, April 23, is worth preserving. He was asked if his Association did nothave a plan to propose as a substitute to National Prohibition. His answer as it appeared in the press was: "We'd be in hot wateraU the time if we did that," he said. Curransaid his association was primarily interestedin obtaining repeal of the national prohibition law and to leave to the States decision asto prohibition. "There are a hundred milliondifferent ideas on how to control the liquortraffic," he said. "No two persons agree."

Urges "All Citizens" to Break Laiv, Repealand Nullification Too Slow. A flaming full-page advertisement in the Chicago Tribune,New ^York Herald-Tribune, and other"great" dailies this week developed an en

tirely new slant in the Anti-Prohibition program. This time it is the urging of open violation of law, the advocacy of direct and un

qualified anarchy. In conspicuous type thead quotes the following words from a ten-column, four-page, four thousand word article by a youthful law-breaker, Corey Ford,in the May issue of the magazine, VanityFair. The whole article is of a piece withand well epitomized in the paragraph reproduced in the ad, which is as follows : "Personally I should like to call on every free-thinking American of my generation whocan think at all, to break this law ; break itrepeatedly ; break it whenever he can. Drinkwhat you please, when you please. Urge others to drink. Don't betray the bootleggerswho are smuggling liquor for you. In everyway possible flaunt your defiance of theEighteenth Amendment. Render it inoperative. Ignore it, abrogate it, wipe it out.Whilst it stands there, let it be disobeyed."New Orleans Banker Analyzes Literary

Digest Poll. Fred W. Ellsworth, Vice-President of the Hibernia Trust and Savings Co.,New Orleans, and member of the AdvisoryBoard of the American Business Men's Prohibition Foundation, Chicago, writes to theLiterary Digest, April 13, "In analyzing theinteresting Prohibition poll as published inyour issue of April 19th, I am wonderingwhy you do not emphasize these interesting facts: (1) The states numerically areabsolutely equally divided as between enforcement and repeal�twenty-four favoringenforcement, and twenty-four favoring re

peal. (2) Thirty-one states favor enforcement rather than modification, and while 17states prefer modification to enforcement.(3) In analyzing the votes for repeal as opposed to enforcement, I find that of the majority favoring repeal totaling 1,943,052,nearly 97% is in the five states of New York,New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut andIllinois. These figures are significant and indicate of course, that the wet sentiment infavor of repeal is not necessarily as nationwide as the wet advocates would have us believe, but is somewhat concentrated in ourbig cities like Greater New York, Philadelphia, and Chicago.Full-page Anti-Prohibition Ads Reach

25,000,000 Readers. Up to and includingApril 26, 34 leading dailies in 32 cities and21 states, with a daily circulation of approximately 5,250,000, will have carried full-pageanti-prohibition advertisements alleged tohave been paid for by the Life publishingcompany out of contributions received sinceMarch 12 from wet readers of these publications. On the usual basis of estimate 25,000,-000 people have perused this advertising todate. It is packed with misrepresentation,contains many deliberated falsehoods, but socleverly displayed as to mislead millions notacquainted with the facts.

nearly all drink now." This is a sweepingstatement. There are some millions of us

sober citizens who know that there are some

millions of fine, intelligent young women inthis country who do not drink intoxicatingliquor. Perhaps she should have said practically all of the young women I associatewith drink liquor.In your paragraphs you are repeating a

slander on young women of this country. Youalso say that this same woman who bringsthis exaggerated statement against millionsof our fine, sober young women, says that

"public officials are hypocrites on prohibition, and that she has seen them drinking."One wonders what kind of company thisanti-prohibition witness keeps!My dear Arthur, you ask any good lawyer,

and he will tell you that a good witnessguards against saying too much. Extravagant statements by a witness reveal prejudice on the part of the witness, and a desireto either convict or clear, that makes the tes

timony of little value before the court or an

ordinary juror.How does it happen that these officials are

hypocrites! Why should they claim to be

dry, while drinking in the presence of starwitnesses? The inference is very plain. The

majority of the people who elected these ol-

ficials would, under no circumstances, votefor a wet. So these drinking officials mustclaim to be dry in order to get office. Do you

get this logic into your noodle?After all, the good woman was testifying

for prohibition and did not know it; andyou, Brizzy, smart as you are, failed to geton to the real logic of the situation. Say, mygentle Jew, don't try to run any wet Roose-velts down us.

While it is on my mind, let me tell youthis woman was settling her hubby's politicalfuture. If he ever runs 'for office again, theslandered, sober women of this nation will"remember the Main" power behind thethrone and make his wife regret that shetalked so much against prohibition.

Faithfully yours,H. C. Morrison.

P. s.�Say Arthur, this paper at one timesold forty thousand extra copies of one issuein a battle against rottenness and rum. Bythe way, did you ever hear of Mrs. HenryW. Peabody, of Boston, chairman of the Wo

man's National Committee for Law Enforcement? of Mrs. Henry Ford's most emphatictestimony ? Mrs. John F. Sippel, president oifthe General Federation of Women's Clubs;Mrs. Ella A. Boole, for the Woman's Christian Temperance Union; Evangeline Booth,for the Salvation Army; Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, for the suffrage women ; Mrs. Jessie Nicholson, President of the NationalDemocratic League for Law Enforcement;Mrs. Ruth G. Strawbridge, of Philadelphia;President Mary Woolley, of Mt. Holyoke College? I say, did you ever hear of these wo

men who represent twelve millions of thevery finest women on the globe? They all testified enthusiastically for prohibition. Noneof them belong to Mrs. Roosevelt's drinkingfriends. It seems you entirely overlookedthem, as you failed to mention them in yourparagraphs. No doubt your master, BillyHearst, would object to your doing so.

CAN THE LORD COUNT ON YOU!Reader, if YOU have not ordered extra cop

ies of this Prohibition Number of The Pentecostal Herald get your pen and ink, send us a

dollar for at least FIFTY COPIES, more ifpossible. This Number ought to be sown broadcast throughout the Nation! Think of whatthe liquorites�the greatest enemies of our

homes�are spending to get their deceptive literature among the people, and shall God's people, the people who made the Nation free fromthis home-wrecking, bra(in-destroying, soul-damning power of the Devil�I say, shall God'speople hold their hands, close their pocket-books and let the enemies of sobriety marchover us rough-shod! Let us join in solidphalanx to make one of the most desperateattacks upon the Liquorites they have ever

known. Let's jar their foundations from un

der them by striking, as one man, their mightystrongholds. If you have not a dollar, borrowone, and send for a roll of this PROHIBITIONNUMBER and become a missionary for thecause of RIGHT and RIGHTEOUSNESS! Letnot one of us turn back in the dav of battle.The enemy is DOWN! LET'S KEEP HIMDOWN BY PRAYER, FAITH AND WORKS!

Who Wrote It?What old Frenchman was it who wrote a

book before the French Revolution with anote of warning, which raised a storm of indignation and protest, to which the writerreplied that, "The next edition of this bookwill be bound in leather made out of yourhides." Thomas Carlyle makes reference toit somewhere in his writings, and remarksthat the prophecy came true. A later edition of the book was bound in leather tannedfrom the hides of aristocrats guillotined inthe French Revolution.We are reminded of this incident by the

wealthy women of the cocktail rebellion.There is the growl of a savage beast of lawlessness rumbling around the earth. Thereare smoldering fires of revolution in the land.The cocktailers are pouring oil on the fire.The same godless anti-prohibitionists willmake sweet meat for the beast when it rises.How helpless is Chicago, and how bloody!Let the upper crust and under-world combineto trample law under foot and, by and by,they will trample each other, and the uppercrust will suffer.Nothing more fearful can happen to men

than that 'God should let them have their waywith themselves and with each other. Thosepersons who will not make some sacrifice andbear some burdens, in order to lift up thelower strata of society into better conditionsand larger life for the general weal of thepeople, are unfit for a place in civilizationand are clogs to the wheels of progress.The poor, wealthy denizens of our great

cities, with fat bodies and lean souls, whoknow nothing of the joy of self-restraint andan altruistic spirit toward their fellowbeings,may get a temporary thrill out of cocktailsand imagine themselves happy, but they arenot ; the very emptiness of their desert souls,where no flower of peace can grow or bloomon the sands of hollow desolation, no doubt

feel the need of stimulants, which are temporary deceptions, but only leave the spiritthe more desolate and starved.This sowing to the appetites of the flesh is

sowing to the wind and, in the end, it meansthe reaping of the whirlwind. This cocktailrebellion is one of the most selfish and contemptible bits of arrogance in the modernhistory of our nation.There is a final High Court. Death is the

High Sheriff of heaven who cannot be bribedor evaded; directly, he will hale the liquorhosts before the judgment bar of God, wherethere will be no postponement, no bail, noparole, but the blackness of outer darknessforever. Would God, some fearless preacherwould break into the wilderness of the wicked rich and give them a faithful warning.


The Minister and Prohibition.Bishop Edwin Holt Hughes.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooHE first statement is that wemust not give up the primacy ofthe pulpit in this reform. Insome respects the primacy ofour profession has been surrendered. Far up into colonial times

Harvard and Yale listed their graduates, notalphabetically, but in the order of social precedence�^the ministers being placed first!None of us would bring that custom backagain : and I could today guarantee an almostunanimous vote on the part of this clericalaudience against any such a motion. Butthere are primacies that we must keep�andnone more surely than our premier relationto this reform.We were once its somewhat lonely advo

cates. In the heart of one of our own profession the Anti-Saloon League was born.After periods oif agitation we began to wincomrades in our work. The great railroadcompanies came into the pulpit with us. 'Thepresidents of steel trusts joined us. Thescientists became our partners. The economists found out what we had long been tellingthem�that a thing that was morally wrongcould never be commercially right; and thatGod had not put into social life a mean andhopeless dualism. After a long season wewon our victory in legislation.

2. The second statement is that, whilewe feel a special responsibility for the prohl-bition laws in view of the fact that they are

being constantly attacked, we still intend tobe advocates of law-keeping in all the realmsof our national life. Even though we behevethat the automobile laws are more frequentlyviolated than the liquor laws, we do not intend to become nullificationists. Even thoughwe believe that our gambling laws are brokenhundreds oif times day and night, we are notwilling to yield to the gamsters as againstthe honest toilers of our land. Even thoughwe believe that our tax laws are not alwaysequitable and even though we may accept therumors that there are many men who do notmake full and correct returns, we purpose todo our part to improve our tax laws ratherthan to evade and thwart them. We simplydedicate the profession of our love to the cultivation of a law-abiding spirit everywhere.A while ago the principal of one of the greatsecondary Christian school for boys wired a

father than his son had persistently brokenthe laws of the institution and that the youthmust be taken home. The father came toplead that his son might be given a furthertrial. In conversation with the principal thisfather boasted that he himself had severaltimes broken our liquor laws, whereupon hewas asked why he should expect his son tokeep school laws that were irksome and distasteful to him, when his father boasted ofhis own rebellion against his nation in a matter of doubtful physical appetite. There isno sincere and adequate reply to that question. The great manufacturers of our land


are largely with us- in our fight, even as arethe masses of our so-called middle-classworkmen; but if later any capitalist whobreaks his country's laws finds his factorydestroyed by lawless hands, he may mourn

fully remind himself that he promoted thespirit that we are ifor the law and for thefkg, and that our voices shall not be lifted inbehalf of selfish nullification.

3. Beyond this, the ministers must reas-sume the processes of education. We are theonly people in America who can keep up regularly great public gatherings that are notprimarily entertaining. Even our lodges cansecure a big attendance only when they servethe legitimate successors of pretzels andbeer, namely, cofl^ee and sandwiches! Butevery Sunday millions of adults and millionsof children come under our instruction. Fortyyears ago we outwitted the enemy in thismatter of temperance education. Our greatgrandfathers were taught that liquor was a

food; our grandfathers that it was a beverage; our fathers that it was a stimulant; ourselves that it was a poison I By the time our

generation came fully upon the scene theharvest df temperance education began toripen ! Let us not now cease our educationin that fertile field of youth. We will do allwe can to prejudice our children and grandchildren in favor of Christ, and against therum which is anti-Christ !4. We must reassert the slogan of social

welfare as against the revived cry for personal liberty. In a very large sense the doctrine of brotherhood has been committed tous ministers. We are pec,uliarly the custodians of the principle announced by the greatJew, "If meat make my brother to offend, Iwill eat no meat while the world standeth."If the Pauline principle of charity applies toanjrthing on earth, it surely applies to the useof intoxicants. E.ven as we do not intend toallow the individual to assert the right oif thepersonal unit against society, so we do notintend to allow the smaller governmentalunit to assert its so-called right against thelarger units. The American people afterlong consideration came to the conclusionthat the liquor trade in this land was big anddeadly enough to deserve the force of a federal law. They passed that law by all properprocesses. The ministers should not give anyquarter to declarations that a man's personalliberty or a town's corporate liberty are

greater than the national liberty that gaveus the Eighteenth Amendment and the Volstead Law. We should be ready to sound thecry all over our cities and villages and coun

trysides, "Brethren, we are called to liberty ;only use not liberty as an occasion to theflesh." We stand for the liberty of the Re

public, one and indivisible, now and forever !5. Again, we do not intend to leave in the

hands of the enemy the interpretation ofpresent and past conditions with regard tothe liquor traffic. The unthinking and theunremembering may be led to believe that,though the days of the saloon had their disadvantages, the liquor traffic was at that timea law-aJbiding thing. But the liquor trafficwas never considerate of law. Abundantquotations could be made from old records,and likewise from the big brewers themselves, to show that the trade always tramped on legislation. Sunday closing was met

by rear and side doors. The law against selling to habitual drunkards was all but totallydisregarded. Who in those so-called lavwfuldays ever knew an habitual drunkard to failto become more habitual '.' We do not claimperfect conditions at the present time. Butwe do claim that the sight of, a drunken man

on our streets is a rarity ; that the old problem of the drunken son is almost unknownamong our people; and that among all thelaws enacted in our land in many years no

other has done so much to bless our citizensas the prohiibition laws.I saw ten times as many drunken men on

the streets of a California town one night under license as I have seen in all our land un

der prohibition. On one trip when I went into thirteen states, I never saw a drunkenman, and I heard only one. I will confessthat he sounded dreadfully drunk. It wasabout the time that Coue was visiting our

country. I was in a hotel in Cincinnati.About three o'clock in the morning I heard aman trying to find the key-hole in the door ofhis room opposite mine. He was talking tohimself and if he said it once he said it twenty times. "Every day, and in every way, Iam getting bummer and bummer." Doubtless he was, but the country was not !

,We are having a cluster of lies in the Uni

ted States with reference to this whole reform. Whenever any man begins to talkabout how much better conditions were inthe old days under the licensed saloon, youmay put it down that he is either hypocriticalor ignorant. We are not going to leave themodern Benedict Arnolds and Aaron Burrsthe right to interpret the conditions of thepresent time as compared with the conditionsof the old time. We are going to handle thosefacts fairly ; and we shall put proper emphasis on what is apparent in the present time�that we have done the biggest piece of humanwelfare that has been accomplished in thehistory of humanity.In the sixth place, we are not going to al

low ourselves or our people to be deceived bysome very innocent-looking propositions thathave on them the stolen labels of temperance.We are having just now to face the situationall over our country,�^that men who in thelast thirty years never once lifted a handagainst the saloon are beginning to pose as

the friends of true ' temperance ! God save

the mark ! They are not going to deceive us

by any of their innocent labels, whether thoselabels be pasted on themselves or on theirproposals.Finally, the seventh thing that the preach

ers oif the United States of America can do isto be less cautious about introducing the representatives of the Anti-Saloon League intotheir pulpits. In other words, in the old dayswe furnished the financial sinews of war;and I give it as my conviction that if thesesinews are to be furnished for the completionof this reform they must come out of thetreasuries of the churches of America. Donot be so careful about protecting your people's pocket-books! My own experience isthat they can take care of that matter themselves without any ministerial help! Heretoday in our preachers' meeting we Ifeel theintensity and the pressure of this particularcall, but sometimes we forget. Let us placethis cause before our people, and we shallfind that they respond to it as well as theyever responded to its past calls.You remember that in Cireasy's "Fifteen

Decisive Battles" there is given this story ofthe battle of Hastings. When William ofNormandy landed on the coast of England,they laid a narrow plank for the great conqueror and his men to pass over from theship. When William himself stepped fromthe plank his foot slipped, and he fell sprawling in the mud. His soldiers were superstitious, and when they saw that he had fallen,they murmured, "An evil omen An evil omenis this !" He saw that he must change theirmoods. So rising to his full height, with bothhands full of English earth, he cried, "See,my men, by the splendor of God, I have takenpossession of England with both hands ! It

is now mine ! And what is mine is yours !"It is true that a man cannot handle the illicitliquor business in the United States of America without filling his hands with filth. It islikewise true that we have laid hold of thatbusiness, by the splendor of God, with bothhands, and we are not going to let go, no

matter what may come ! Today, in the name

of that great reform and particularly in thename of that great and wonderful force forrighteousness which my profession represents, I pledge the leaders of the Anti-SalbonLeague of America the co-operation andprayers of the preachers of our great country, until at last we all unite in hailing Christas King of a sober nation, for ever and ever,Amen.

PUT TEETH IN ENFORCEiMENT.(Continued from page 5)

and local officials will get back of it in an

honest-to-God way.The American people have a right to dis

approve of a law and to seek its repeal ormodification in a lawful way. If the peopledo not want prohibition, they may removethe amendment by the same means they usedto adopt it. If a majority of the people ofthe country desire the Volstead Act changed,they have a legal method of accomplishingthis result through electing to the House andSenate Members who will vote to change it.Liquor has never obeyed any modifying law.It will never obey any law but a bone dry lawhonestly and vigorously enforced.I believe prohibition is gaining in spite of

the difficulties of enforcement. The Eighteenth Amendment will never come out ofthe Constitution. The Volstead law will nothe weakened. In years to come the people ofthe United States will have more and morecause to rejoice that they voted prohibitioninto the Constitution and made it the law ofthe land and stood by it.

A Gem of Scientific Information.Now, as never before it behooves those

who stand for righteousness and sobriety tokeep themselves well informed as to thehurtful effects of alcohol upon the humanrace. The Prohibition age does not lessenthe need of such information. "Alcohol andthe Human Race," by Richmond PearsonHobson, is a product of ten years' study bythis capable man. He has gathered up allthat has been discovered about the effect ofalcohol upon the human body and mind andits effect upon society and nations.If you want to intelligently present the

harmful effects to a Sunday School class ofyoung men, order a copy ; if you want to indelibly impress upon the minds of people,young and old, on any occasion, the deadlyeffects of alcohol, order a copy for 25c, or5 copies for $1.00, and hand them out. Thefacts are presented with such convincingpower that any one will read it with profit.

A LIFE-STORY.

Bishop Robert Mclntyre.

The Boy�The Booze�The Bishop.

In the back of my head lies an an

cient story of Sam Johnson, the bluff,bearish, brainy scholar of Britain. Inthe height of his fame he was found

standing in a downpour of rain on

the open road of an English village.When asked his reason for this queerprocedure the dripping Ursa replied:"I was making atonement on the spotwhere I disobeyed my father fortyyears ago."I recently returned to my boyhood

neighborhood. Full of .gratitude Irolled four decades from my shoulders and stood up therein to praise the

memory of a good man whose advice I

accepted and whose dictum I obeyedwith undeniable advantage to myselfand others. In the pulpit of thechurch to which he belonged I stoodand called his name, remembered byfew�^for he died years ago and allhis kin are scattered. I told the folkthat he was my boss during the CivilWar in a factory where I toiled as a

boy. How he showed interest in his

underlings, and stirred them to join a

society, now forgotten, called "TheCadets of Temperance," an offspringof "The Sons of Temperance." I re

cited the dim scene, where, in the

lodgeroom, I took the vow of total ab-��^tainence with uplifted hand in sol

emn mood, how I signed the roster,drank the pledge of fealty in cold wa

ter, sang the ode, received the pass

word, and went out girded for the

fray against King Alcohol.As I walked home alone that sum

mer night across the fields, with frogscalling "knee-deep," and fireflies

weaving their mystic dance around

me, I paused at a stile to repeat myobligation and renew my youthful resolve to abstain from all intoxicants.Half a lifetime after, in a state

asylum for feeble-minded children,when I heard the matron say that

three-fourths of the imbecile inmates

were progeny of drunken parents, I

dug up my oath against rum, and

deep in my soul registered once more

my undying hatred of this fell de

stroyer.A short time after my adolescent

initiation I was sternly tested on thismatter. I was apprenticed to the

bricklayer's trade .

My employer knew his businesswell, was a skillful craftsman, butmuch given to drink as were all his

employees. At noon of my first dayhe bade me pour the water from the

pail, go to a nearby tavern and get itfilled with ale for the dinner. I

brought it as ordered, took my placeat the end of the line, seated like therest in the shadow of the wall, andsaw the bucket with a tin cup therein

coming slowly toward me. I trembled

inwardly as I saw that every brick

layer, every hod-carrier, every mor

tar-mixer, every apprentice, drankthe beer.

From My Master Downeach took a share, and I realized that

I, a poor, weak lad, on my first dayin a new crew, must offend the whole

gang, censure their customs, standtheir sneers, endure their scoffs, or

surrender my principles.When the booze reached me I whis

pered a refusal to the one who passedit, but the "gaffer,'' thinking I was

merely timid in new company, cried

out, in hearty old country style:"Take it, Robert; don't be shy; I payfor it; you are one of us, have your

sip of it."I said, with faltering voice, while

all eyes burned on me: "Excuse me,Mr. George, I never drank liquor andcannot begin now."He laughed uproariously, as did the

others, and shouted: "Ho, ho, lad,you'll never be a bricklayer till youlearn to drink."I put the untouched meal in my

basket, arose slowly, shaking like an

aspen tree, and walking down the row

of scornful workmen, I paused beforethe leader and said: "Mr. George, ifthat is true, I will go home and tell

my father I am discharged; for drinkliquor I will not, now or ever; I willnot!"I think I had mysterious help that

day, unseen of all. To my amaze

ment, the boss leaped up, took my

hand, and said, "God bless you, boy.Stand fast and you will be a man

some day." Then to the wage-earnershe said: "If any man of you ever askshim to drink you will suffer for it."The first step is the hardest, and I

had won the heaviest battle. I worked four years with him and saw theruin drink made. One of my eai-lyfriends became through it a murderer; another a madman; another an

outcast; another a thief. I have seen

wives crushed, homes destroyed, children disgraced, babes diseased, families divided, mothers bereft, brothersestranged, firms bankrupted, lawyersdegraded, doctors degenerated, andministers debauched. And all who are

in prisons, insane asylums, or incurable hospitals, who rot in lazarettos,or sleep in potter's fields through thistreacherous foe of God and man began as moderate drinkers.

My words will not reach or shakethe inhuman parasites who are fattened by the gains of this awful traf

fic, but to the boys I cry: Swear eternal enmity to rum, and enlist for thisholy war till America is free from itforever.

Boys, which crowd will you join?They can't run the saloons without

you. The Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals of our

Church asks you to enlist to save your

generation from drunkenness and

your land from Rum Rule by signingtoday :

"Believing that the drinking of in

toxicating liquor does our peoplegreat harm and no good, and that I

A thick-set, ugly-looking fellowwas seated on a bench in the publicpark, and seemed to be reading some

writing on a sheet of paper which heheld in his hand."You seem to be much interested in

your writing," I said."Yes; I've been figuring my ac

quarrel with my best friends and bethe laughing stock of my enemies. He

gave me a black eye and a brokennose. Then I drank for the good of

my health. He ruined the little I had,and left me 'sick as a dog.' "

GEORGIE'S TEST.

Georgie was on his way to schoolone morning when he heard a voicecalling, "Georgie, Georgie!" and inresponse to the call he stepped intoMr. Smith's�the grocer's�store.

"Georgie, you are just the boy I

want," said Mr. Smith, and at thisGeorgie's heart gave a great bound."Why, perhaps here is just the

chance I want for earning some mon

ey," he joyfully thought."My trade has grown so," said Mr.

Smith, "that I need an extra hand fora few hours each day. It won't interfere a mite vnth school duties. I justwant you from seven to eight in themorning and from five to six atnight; my trade's briskest then, andI'll give you two dollars a week.WotiW you like to come ? "

"Wouldn't I, though?" said Georgie, with a beaming face, as therearose before him a wonderful visionof what that two dollars a week wouldbuy. I'm sure mother would let me

come, if it's only something I can do.""You can do it fast enough," said

Mr. Smith. "I want you to stand inthe back part of the store and sellbeer to the men."Poor Georgie's; his heart, which

had been so light, sunk like lead.Then Mr. Smith's store was a maskedbar-room with groceries in front and

liquors behind the screens.

"Oh, I can't come," said Georgie,manfully, "I've promised to fightagainst something.""To fight against something!" said

Mr. Smith; "what do you mean?""I've signed the pledge," said

Georgie, "and I'm bound to fightbeer."

"Oh, that's the way the wind

blows," said Mr. Smith: "we'll easilyget over that difficulty for John can

tend to the beer and you can help me

do up the bundles."

Georgie hesitated: it was a greattemptation: Should he say "Yes," or

should he say, "I'll ask mother aboutit." Ah! the thought of mother settled the matter."Come Georgie, I must have you,"

said Mr. Smith kindly. "You are justthe sort of a boy I want. Come, mylad, you shall have three dollars a

week, and that's a big sum for a chaplike you to earn. Think what a helpit will be to your mother!""Yes," said Georgie, "I've been

thinking of that, but I know motherwouldn't like to have me here. No,Mr. Smith, I'm not so very big, butyou haven't money enough to hire me

while you sell beer. Good morning."And Georgie was half way to schoolbefore Mr. Smith recovered from his

surprise."Mother, would you like to have me

work in a place where they sellbeer?" asked Georgie when he re

turned home.

"No, most decidedly, no!" Mrs. Arnold earnestly replied."I knew you wouldn't," said Geor

gie triumphantly, and then he told his

story."I hope you will always be able to

decide as promptly perplexing- questions of right and wrong," said the

good mother, with tears in her eyes.

WHY I BELIEVE IN PROHIBITION.

Mrs. Ella A. Boole,President, National Woman's Chris

tian Temperance Union.

I believe in prohibition because it isthe only way to deal with a lawlessbusiness.I believe in prohibition because in

outlawing the liquor traffic we are re

moving a preventable cause of degeneracy, vice and crime.I believe in prohibition because it

� Was enacted to protect the American(home.

The liquor traffic grew to be a pow-

jerful influence in the political and so-

-,'cial world through the measure of

,;control given by the states prior tothe adoption of Federal prohibition.Jhat the influence of the liquor traffic.Was bad is acknowledged by all. Thatthe use of alcoholic liquors during'his period resulted in mental andMoral degeneracy is acknowledged.That the saloon was a bad thing even

our opponents admit.Many methods of controlling the

Wnk habit and the drink traffic were

Wed in the days before prohibition.All those efforts were resisted bythose who denied the relation between moderate drinking and drunk

enness., and the further relation ofboth to the drink traffic.Moral suasion for the drinker, as

exemplified in the pledge signing"movements, failed because of the

temptations of social drinking andthe ever-present bar-room and saloon,all of which were supported by the

moderate drinkers. Also the propa

ganda of the liquor business was all

against temperance.Local option by towns, cities and

counties was bitterly opposed by mod

erate drinkers and the patrons of sa

loons and bar-rooms. It was too localand too optional to be effective.State prohibition by legislative en

actment or amendment to the state

constitution was adopted in thirty-three states before National Prohi

bition became operative. Here en

forcement was complicated because

every state had a border line and the

Wet states interfered with enforce

ment in the Dry states.

Why is national prohibition the

best method for dealing with the

liquor traffic?First. Prohiibition is the logical

method of dealing with an evil.Second. It makes the liquor evil

uniformly an outlaw in every corner

of the nation.Third. It prohibits everything in

the liquor business: manufacture,sale, transportation, importation, ex

portation of intoxicating liquor.Prohibition has disclosed no new at

titude of its opponents, for the liquortraffic has always broken the law.

The bootlegger is blamed for law

violation. He would not exist if peo

ple did not buy his liquors, neither

could he exist if only the criminal

classes patronized him. It is .the rich.

the influential, who still believe in

moderate drinking; those in high po

sitions who claim the right to violate

the law, who lead the way and are

supported by the lawless classes.The moderate drinker is the great

trouble maker. No total abstainerwill become a drunkard. Every drunkard was one time a moderate drinker.Restore the legal sale of intoxica

ting liquor, even under state controlwith moderate restrictions, and everyrestriction will be violated. It was so

before prohibition, it is so now. Itwas even stated recently before the

Judiciary Committee of the House of

Representatives by one of the witnesses that under no circumstanceswould he obey the prohibition law.There is no place in America for a

traffic which refuses, or even a groupof people who refuse to obey the lawsof our country. The prohibition ofthe beverage traffic is incorporated inthe Constitution and is binding on

all the people. Greed or appetite isno excuse for violating it.We challenge the opponents of pro

hibition to tell us what they havedone to help make prohibition a suc

cess. Have they obeyed the Constitutional provisions of the law? Have

they set young people the example oflaw obedience? What have they doneto create respect for law?Prohibition is the best method yet

tried of dealing with the liquor traffic,and the law should not be changed atthe demand of those who violate it.Beer and wine would not satisfy, andthe demand granted would be the

opening wedge for the return of thesaloon.The drink habit cannot exist with

out a drink traffic. Let us obey the

prohibition law, break the drink habitand thus break the drink traffic. Thatis the purpose of the prohibition law.Prohibition is the result of orderly

processes. It has been sustained byforty decisions of the Supreme Court.To refuse to obey the prohibition lawis a species of anarchy condemned byleaders of state and responsible in

part for the reckless criminality ofthe age.

DECLARE FOR PROHIBITION.

The General Federation of Women's Clubs, representing 2,500,000members, at its recent biennial con

vention in Denver, passed the follow^ing strong resolution:Whereas, There are sinister influ

ences seeking to undermine the efficacy of the Eighteenth Amendmentto the Constitution of the UnitedStates and to render the laws for theenforcement thereof impotent; and.Whereas, Individuals and organiza

tions favoring the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment are making strenuous efforts to destroy the faith ofthe people of the United States inprohibition and to promote the ideathat prohibition is contrary to theprinciples of our goverment; therefore, be itResolved, That the General Federa

tion of Women's Clubs, through itsdelegate body, reaffirms its convictions that prohibtion offers the bestmeans for curbing the liquor trafficand its attendant crimes, and pledgesits continued support to the Eighteenth Amendment and the rigid en

forcement thereof."

"I still feel that prohibition is thegreatest experiment yet made to benefit man."�Thomas A. Edison.


SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSONREV. O. G. MINGLEDORFF, D.p.

Lesson IV.�July 27, 1930.

Subject.�Deborah. Judges 4:1-15.

Golden Text.�Say to them that are

of a fearful heart, Be strong, fearnot. Isa. 35:4.Time.�Impossible to give the ex

act date, but about B. C. 1300.Place.�North Canaan.Introduction.�Among the Jews

the time between the death of Joshuaand the beginning of the reign of

King Saul is commonly known as the

period of the Judges. During thistime Israel's government was rather

loose-jointed, if I may employ such

a term. It might be termed a sort of

democratic theocracy that was con

stantly changing hands. The peoplewould go into idolatry, and therebysin grievously against Jehovah, andhe would punish them by permittingtheir enemies to triumph over them.

Then they would repent and cry for

mercy, when God would raise up some

leader from among them to over

throw their enemies. There would be

peace and prosperity for a time; thenthe people would fall away again into

sin, and receive another chastisement.This state of affairs continued duringa period of between three hundredand four hundred years.Our lesson today deals with one of

these judges, Deborah, the only wo

man in the group. Dr. Adam Clarke

says this is the first case of "gynae-cocrasy, or female government, on

record." I do not like his word, be

cause it is sometimes used in a de-

preciative sense, being about equal tothe terra "petticoat rule." One thingis certain: Deborah deserved no de

preciation, for she ruled Israel with

a strong hand. She was more than a

judge: she was both poet and prophetas well. She could have led the armyto battle, but preferred to tell Barak

exactly when and where to strike for

victory.Some women are born leaders; but

usually their best efforts are spent inleading great moral reforms. No man

could have filled the role of FrancesWillard: that called for a woman.

They are becoming great leaders in

important business affairs; and no

man will deny that they are success

ful. Some are entering, by vote of

the people, our legislative halls; and

they are doing good work. Others

are becoming shrewd lawyers. As

physicians for their own sex I see no

reason why they should not be vastlysuperior to men. As teachers theyhave done well, especially for smallchildren. My firm conviction is, thatafter pupils enter high school theyshould have teachers of both sexes.

Pupils need the stimulus that comes

from both sides of the house. Boystaught by women alone tend to be

come "sissies"; while girls taught bymen alone take on too much of the

masculine type.Now that I have written the fore

going, permit me to say emphaticallythat the home is the woman's kingdom. Some outside work may helpher to do better work there; butwhenever she becomes so engrossedwith other duties as to neglect her

home and family, she is outside of

her sphere. Maybe I am digressingfrom my subject, but I must say thatthe biggest need in America today is

HOMES. Boarding houses and apartments are a curse to civilization.

There are too many women loafingaround with hairy poodles and Bos

ton bulls. This nation needs mothers

and lots of babies. We need Christianhomes where God is feared and wor

shipped. Maybe I am an old fogy, a

back number, so to speak; but I donot believe that parents can bring upchildren "in_^the nurture and admonition of the Lord," and at the same

time permit them to gamble at card

parties, trot to the movies, frequentthe dance halls and go joy riding atthe midnight hour with Tom, Dick

and Harry. I believe, therefore I am

speaking.Is that off the subject of the les

son? If so, come back to Deborah;and we shall have some

Comments on the Lesson.1. When Ehud was dead.�This

was the judge who preceded JudgeDeborah. After the death of Othnielthe land had rest for forty years; butthe people soon fell again into sin;and God permitted Eglon the king ofMoab to enslave them eighteen years.When they cried to Jehovah for helpagain, he called out this man Ehud to

be a deliverer. Ehud deceived Eglonby telling him that he had a messagefor him from God (some suppose thathe meant from the king's heathen

gods, as the word could also be thus

applied), and slew him with a double-

edged dagger. We might term hisact murder; but we cannot pass judgment upon him by our standards.Better leave him in the hand of Godfor judgment. When Ehud died Israel fell into sin again.

2. The LORD sold them into thehand of Jabin.�^Permitted him to

conquer them, and to rule them. Kingof Canaan.�The Israelites failed to

completely destroy the Canaanites as

Jehovah commanded them to do, andtrouble followed. What a perfect picture is this of a converted man who

will not let God wholly sanctify him.Sisera.�Watch this man in the lesson. He was a heathen Canaanite. A

woman will deal with him.3. The children of Israel cried unto

the LORD.�I am not surprised at

their crying, but Jehovah's patiencesurpasses all human expectation.Nine hundred chariots of iron.�It is

hardly possible that the chariotswere composed of nothing but iron.The commental^ors tell us that itmeans that these vehicles of war

were armed with something like

scythes attached to the ends of the

axles, that were intended to throwinto confusion, and to cut down the

infantry as they rushed throughthem. Such warfare was terrible,but not more inhuman than our modern methods. Battlefields are hellson earth. When we cease to call war

glorious, and to look upon battlefieldsas shamefully disgraceful spots,maybe we shall have peace on earth.

May God speed the blessed day.4. Deborah, a prophetess, the wife

of Lapidoth.�We have discussed hercase pretty freely in our introduction.See that.

5. She dwelt under the palm tree.�Open-air courts were not uncom

mon in those lands at that time. Thechildren of Israel came to her for

judgment.�She held her oflace by divine appointment, which rendered hercourt authoritative.

6. Called Barak.�Egrak seem^ toj

have been the commander of the ar

mies of Israel; or she may have so

appointed him at this particular time.Her command to him takes the

strange form of a question: "Hath

not the God of Israel commanded?"She had received orders from Jeho

vah, and seems to intimate that pos

sibly Barak had done the same.

7. I will draw unto thee to the

river Kishon Sisera.�This man was

the captain of Jabin's army. He and

his people had long oppressed Israel,and the set time for deliverance had

come. God never permits any nation

to trample upon the rights of anothernation for any great length of time

without visiting vengeance upon the

oppressing nation. Individuals re

ceive retributive justice in eternity:nations receive it here. God would

bring Sisera and his host into the

proper place for Barak's army to putthem to rout. Does God sanctionwar? No; but there are times when

he uses it to destroy worthless na

tions, because they cumber the

ground. He prefers that men shouldbe good and do good; but when theywill not, vengeance must act. Goddoes not desire to send any one to

hell; but if souls are incorrigible,they must be sent there for the protection of the divine government.

8. If thou wilt go with me, thenI will go.�Barak was not a coward;but he recognized the fact that De

borah was Jehovah's appointedjudge; and he felt that it was properthat she should be with him to givespecial directions as to the battle.

9. Not for thine honor.�She would

surely go with him, but warns him

that it would detract from his honor.It reminds one of Moses' loss when

Jehovah appointed Aaron as his

mouthpiece. Moses lost some of thehonor. The LORD shall sell Siserainto the hand of a woman.�But it is

not said which woman. Deborah went

with Barak, and ordered the battle to

begin. Her presence, no doubt, in

spired the army; but when the enemy

was routed Sisera fled from his

chariot, and made his way into the

private apartment of Jael, the wifeof a man named Heber. This woman

belonged to the house of Hobab, Moses' father-in-law; and there was a

treaty of peace and friendship between her people and the people of

Sisera; but he violated all the laws of

propriety in entering her privateapartment, according to the customof his people. Jael treated him with

great kindness, gave him milk to

drink out of a costly vessel, and cov

ered him up that he might rest; butwhen he was fast asleep she drove a

big nail through his temple and killedhim. Was that murder? If she was

directed to Jehovah to kill him, it wasnot; but otherwise it was murd�r.The great commentators have foughtpitched 'battles over this case. Thinkfor yourself.

10. Barak called Zebulun and

Naphtali to Kedesh.�It does notseem that Deborah was judge over allthe land, but over the northern portion�possibly only over these two

tribes, and went up to give battle tothe hosts of Sisera at this placecalled Kedesh. It was near the riverKishon. And Deborah went up withhim.�Not in the capacity of a soldier, but that she might give adviceto Barak who led the army of Israel.In order to get the full story, it willbe necessary for those interested toread the entire context.Into the hands of which woman did

Jehovah sell Sisera? One class of

PRACTICAL BENEFITS OFPROHIBITION.

By Mr. J. C. Penney,Merchant and Philanthropist.

The total realized income of the

nation, as found by the President's

Committee, stood at not quite sixty-sjx billion dollars for 1919. It

dropped to a low point of sixty-threejKion dollars in 1921. Since then it

has been steadily mounting and for

1928 is estimated at eighty-nine bil

lion dollars. In ten years the income

of the country has increased at a

very much higher rate than ever be

fore and we are today, as a nation,much wealthier than ever before. Theuse of ordinary common sense and

obeervation brings one to the same

conclusion. One cannot go anywherein this country and not note changesof staggering magnitude.Every figure of wealth that we

know has steadily climbed. The in

dex value of sales in departmentstores has gone from 87 in 1921 to

108 in 1928 and in mail order housesfrom 67 to 137. In 1919 we had onlytwo thousand electric refrigerators,and in 1928 we had nearly a millionand a quarter. During the same

period, washing machines increasedfrom less than a million a year to

around six milllion. Neither electric

refrigerators nor washing machinescan be considered as appointments ofthe wealthy. Everyone is familiarwith the tremendous increase in auto

mobiles, in motion picture houses, andin the comforts and necessities of

life, as well as in the pleasures of lifegenerally.But there is also a very solid in

vestment side. In 1919 there were

about eighteen million individual

savings accounts to a total of thirteen billion dollars. Last year therewere more than fifty-three million ac

counts holding in them twenty-eightand a half billion dollars. In the

building and loan associations, representing for the most part ownershipof homes of moderate price, therewere in 1919 somewhat over fourmilhon members, while in 1927 thereWere more than eleven million mem

bers. The wealthy do not bother with

savings funds or building societies.The life insurance policy holders

increased from over thirteen millionin 1919 to over twenty-seven millionin 1927.You are all familiar with the enor

mous growth of the automobile in

dustry but you may not know that inlate years around sixty per cent of

� all the medium and low priced cars

have been bought by th& wage earn

ers. And you will note that the sa

loon expenditures of a man who usedto drink moderately will today buy an

automobile on the installment plan.As the saloon has passed, the automobile has come in.Take some household figures. Ex

clude the farms. In 1913 there were

109 bathtubs per thousand homes; in1919 the number had increased to

133, but by 1928 it had jumped to 200.

Telephones per thousand homes wentfrom 43 in 1919 to 58 in 1919 to 94 in1928.In 1913 only 48 homes per thousand

Were wired for electricity and in 1919there were 94, but in 1928 there were

200. That is an amazing growth inhome comfort.The nation is on its way to eco

nomic liberty. And it is Prohibitionthat has made it possible for us to

speak of true liberty as a fact about

to be accomplished instead of as a

state of mind for philosophers to talkabout.

COMBINE TO FIGHT PROHIBITION.

In The Herald of June 18, youspeak of the proposed "straw vote"for the South, and the fund from theEast. I am informed by good authority that large sums are being offeredby parties much farther east thanNew York or New Jersey. The wineproducing countries of Europe are ina great combine to fight Prohibitionin the United States, and propose tofurnish large sums to carry out plansto defeat it. It is my opinion thatfunds for such a purpose, furnishedby foreigners would be contraband,and could be confiscated by our government. J. M. Wilson.

DEFENDING THE DEAD!

sciousness that the only solution is

pressure in favor of enforcement."I see that the wets claim that the

election was not a prohibition victory.Well, one cannot argue with that

view, and can only let those who believe it continue to believe it.

"As ever yours,

(Signed) "William H. Taft."

FIGHT OR SURRENDER.

The body of the late Chief JusticeWilliam Howard Taft had scarcelygotten cold when the anti-prohibitionists got out literature indicating thathe was for the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. Fortunately, inthis case, "Truth crushed to earthrose again," for Mr. Taft's brother

presented a letter which set Mr.Taft's views on this matter in a perfectly clear light. The correspondence follows:

Washington, D. C, March 19. (AP)��The late William Howard Taft was

quoted today at the house judiciarycommittee's prohibition hearing as

having said in November, 1928, thatthe results of prohibition was "glorious" and that he felt it would be

possible to achieve satisfactory re

sults.Horace P. Taft, a brother of the

late chief justice of the United States,was the first witness at today's ses

sion. He presented a letter the formerPresident had written to Professor

Irving Fisher, of Yale University, under date of Nov. 21, 1928. It read:

Taft's Letter.

"My Dear Irving:"Thank you for sending me your

new book, I shall read it with a greatdeal of pleasure."In the late campaign I found my

self in a very awkward situation. I

could not issue any publication duringit, because of my heing on the bench,and yet the New York World published my anti-prohibition letters writtento Lincoln (a dry of New Haven) be

fore the adoption of the amendment,and then nobody seemed to take the

trouble to publish my speech at Yale

given after the amendment was

adopted."But the result is glorious and

points the only way that we have to

work out the problem presented. The

WHO IS OUR GREAT ENEMY?

The Christian Advocate publishesthe following remarks made by Horace D. Taft, LL.D., headmaster of theTaft School for Boys at Watertown,Connecticut. , They are strong and to

the point:In this battle, who is our great ene

my? Whence comes this prodigiousnoise, this propaganda over the whole

country which results in twisted news

items everywhere, in false statistics,in heaping scorn on officers of thelaw for doing their duty, in jubilationwhen they fail, in the sacrilegious use

of Faneuil Hall over the death ofthree acknowledged lawbreakers, inthe maudlin speeches in Congress, insuch an idiotic bill as the one to prevent officers from using arms againsta criminal in self-defense?It all reminds you of the Copper

heads in the Civil War. They keptscreaming, "The war is a failure,"and thereby did all that was in their

power to make it a failure. Everyvictory for the Union they deploredand belittled. Every victory for se

cession brought them joy, and theykept clamoring for an impossiblecompromise that should end the fight.But who is behind it all? Is it be

cause the good citizens on the wet

side are more self-sacrificing and en

thusiastic than those on the dry?No, we must recognize our real en

emy, an enemy that is fighting not in

Massachusetts alone, not in the Uni

ted States, but in Canada, in Scan

dinavia, in Finland, in England,throughout the world. It is what the

English call The Trade. They usual

ly confine that name to England, but

now the whole liquor, wine and beerinterest of the world is organized andis fighting with its back to the wall,with enormous financial resources,

against the rising tide of temperance,of prohibition ,of local option, or

whatever form the upward movementtakes.

And, of course, they have concen

trated on America, for they knowwell that if the success of prohibitionis acknowledged here their doom issealed.�Free Methodist.

14 THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Wednesday, July 16, 1930.PROSPERITY AND PROHIBITION.

There is no doubt about prohibitionbeing an economic success. All thewell-known economists testify to thatfact. The reason is that most of the

money once spent for liquor now goesfor these four things: Homes, home

furnishings, automobiles and savings.As a contrast to the day when the

drunkard stole his children's savingsfor liquor, today we have fifty-threemillion individual savings accounts I

Practically half the people in this

country are saving money. Threetimes as many as in the saloon era.

Home owning is such a hobby thatfthe building and loan association business is one of the financial giants ofthe new age, having increased its as

sets two thousand million dollarssince the saloons closed.All these facts indicate that even

if the bootlegger is taking a toll,homes and banks are getting even

more. We have had five million new

homes built in the past eight years.In the same years which gave us

2,500,000 new families, we find 3,500,-000 families purchasing houses.

Along with home owning manycomforts have been added to lightenthe burden of the housekeeper because the head of the house does not

spend his money for liquor. Electrical appliances in the homes are in

creasing under prohibition. Ten years

ago less than a million washing ma

chines a year were manufactured.Last year six million were made andintroduced into American homes. Theincrease in the laundry business is

startling. These things are a partof the bettered living standards. Life

'

is easier.There are more children attending

public school than ever before; fewerof them ill clad and undernourished.More of them remain through highschool; three times as many enroll in

college as in the saloon era.

Men who drank beer at noon time

today drink a quart of milk; and thenation's dairy industries have increased four fold. American workmen goto the job in automobiles. This coun

try owns three out of every four au

tomobiles in the world and spent twobillion dollars last year on new roadsurfaces.These are not idle statements; they

come from reliable sources, from the

reports of Building and Loan Asso

ciations; from the American Bankers'

Association; from government bureaus and departments.The general opinion of the heads

of industries as reported by SamuelCrowther in the Ladies' Home Journal is that people are spending less

money for intoxicating liquor andmore on homes.

Therefore, it follows that those

who flout the law and deal with the

bootlegger are not only conspiringwith a criminal to violate the law, butare actually diverting money from

the stream of prosperity to the

stream of graft and corruption.No one could accuse the Encyclope

dia Brittanica of being a prejudicedwitness. This is what that world fa

mous book of reference says about

the effect of prohibition in the United

States:"When one nation, such as the Uni

ted States, makes a definite advance

in this form of economy, there is no

reason to doubt that it will gain on

all others year by year, decade bydecade and century by century and

eventually dominate the civilized

world. They who refuse to take this

great forward step in the economy ofhuman resources are definitely choos

ing to occupy a secondary positionin the world."�Signal Press.

WHAT A RAILROAD MAN THINKSABOUT PROHIBITION.

Edwin Sanford Nichols, who has

given sixty years of continuous ser

vice on a railroad, having held every

position from "train butcher" or

news agent, at the age of 13, to con

ductor on the Chicago & Alton western division, a capacity in which hehas served since 1880, says, as reported by the Christian Science Monitor,that "even if prohibition affected the

transportation field alone, and thereWere no good effects in other direc

tions, the Volstead Act has been fullyjustified."He testifies that railway employ

ees, whose wages formerly went tothe dozens of drinking resorts thatclustered around the yards and work

shops, while their families went hun

gry, now own their own homes andhave come into an entirely new and

improved way of living. "Many whowent out upon their runs not sober,"he continued, "met with serious accidents or were killed. Nowadays whentrain and enginemen report for dutythey are clear-headed, steady-handedand with faculties unimpaired fortheir responsibilities. As a result accidents that were formerly charged to

liquor are now comparatively un

known.""It is a pleasure to handle a train

load of people nowadays," Mr. Nichols concluded. "Twenty years andmore ago, crews went out on theirruns dreading encounters with drink-crazed passengers."

THE VALIDITY OF THE STRAWVOTE.

The fairness, the impartiality andthe editorial integrity of the LiteraryDigest are recognized throughout theUnited States wherever magazinesare read. Christian Herald holds this

great news periodical in like esteem.

When, in the last Presidential elec

tion, the Literary Digest "straw vote"so accurately forecast the final result,we shared the amazement with whichAmericans generally regarded this

extraordinary editorial achievement.

If, therefore, we raise certain questions relative to the present Prohibition poll, it is not because of any lackof confidence in the Literary Digestbut because of our belief that thesame list of twenty million names

which might give an accurate forecast of a Presidential election, mightfail to give an accurate indication ofProhibition sentiment in the UnitedStates.In a Prohibition referendum, we

are of the opinion that the ratio ofthe distribution of ballots betweenmen and women seriously affects the

validity of the results. If, as Christian Herald's data indicate, threetimes as many men as women are re

ceiving ballots then the final totals ofthe poll must be discounted. Theremay be some question whether or notthe men of the country are dry. Butwe are certain that the women of the

country are overwhelmingly dry.We note that the Literary Digest,

replying to the question raised byChristian Herald, insists, again, thatthere is no reason why the presentlist of voters will not give as accuratea cross-section of American opinionon Prohibition as it gave last year on

the national election.

We do not believe that to be an ad

equate answer. Perhaps the opinionof the head of the average American

family accurately represents familysentiment in a Presidential election.

We certainly do not believe that such

opinion represents family sentiment

on Prohibition with any such accur

acy. A predominantly male vote may

have provided a reliable forecast of

the national campaign in 1928. But

a predominantly male vote would not,in our opinion, give any such accurate

indication of American sentiment on

the Prohibition question.We regret that the editor of the

Literary Digest has declared, accord

ing to press reports, that the lists to

whom the ballots have been sent are

not open to "properly safeguarded in

spection." Since, however, the lists

cannot be inspected and in view of the

increasing evidence that is coming to

Christian Herald in support of our

position that the ballots have beensent to a disproportionately largenumber of men, with the "womenvote" in a decidedly minor place we

are of the opinion that the results ofthe poll must be seriously discounted.�Daniel A. Poling, Stanley High,�Christian Herald.

SOME CANADIANS ARE WONDERING JUST WHAT IS BE

ING "CONTROLLED"

By "Government Liquor Control"For, clearly, it is not any of the fol

lowing:Not the Amount of Liquor Drunk,

for Ontario drinkers spent over $55,-000,000 in 1929 on liquors; of this

amount, the government got less than

$10,000,000, the brewers and distillersmore than |45,000,000,�nice for the

brewers, but a rather expensive wayof getting the $10,000,000 revenue.

In Ontario, between 1928 and 1929,the consumption of liquor increasedas follows: domestic wines, 108 per

cent; imported beers, 19 per cent; domestic beers, 17 per cent; importedwhiskey, 10 per cent; Canadian whis

key, 6 per cent.In Alberta, 4,000,000 gallons of li

quor were sold the second year of"control."Sales of beer increased 1,000,000

gallons over last year.The seven provinces having "Gov

ernment Control," with a populationof nearly 10,000,000 spend $160,000,-000 a year for liquor.Not the sale or "Hard" Liquor, for

since the opening of the Beer Parlorsthe sales of hard liquors have increased 50 per cent.Sale of hard liquor increased 32,-

275 gallons in one year.Sale of hard liquor increased 33

per cent in the last two years.Not the number of Persons Drink

ing, for Alberta issued 60,000 permitsthe first year; two years later she issued 144,000 permits.In Ontario 220,440 permits were is

sued in' the first four months. In

1928, 376,839 citizens got permits; in1929, 419,797�an eleven per cent increase in one year.Not Drunkenness, for "if all the

drunks were arrested there would beno room for them in the jails."Arrests for drunkenness increased

125 per cent in the first 8 months."All records for inebriates were

broken today when 98 Labor Day celebrants faced Magistrate Cohen."Not Bootlegging, for "Our greatest

problem is moonshine in the countrydistricts."

"Bootlegging increased 111 percent in the first year."

"As much liquor is sold by bootleggers as is sold in the governmentstores." (Who can tell the differencebetween legal and illegal liquor?)

Some Canadians are discoveringthat, instead of liquor being controlledby the Government, the Governmentis being controlled by liquor.

WASHINGTON MINISTER PRq.TEST.

A statement just issued by theWashington Protestant clergythrough Dr. H. E. Woolever, says:"Growing out of the publicity in

the daily press regarding what waspurported to be a poll of the clergyof the District of Columbia taken bythe Literary Digest, the Protestantministers united in a protest. Arousedby the headline, 'Capital Pastors Vote'for Repeal,' ministers representingpractically all the denominations metin the Mayflower Hotel to consider'what action to take. They declaredthat they had been misrepresented in'a gross manner and resolved to makeavailable the facts as to their attitude upon prohibition. Each denominational group appointed a leaderpersonally to canvass all the minis-'ters of his church within the city and'ascertain certain facts from each.'They were to keep a count of the'number interviewed, the attitude ofeach respecting enforcement, thenumber who received Digest ballots,-the number wRo voted and the char--acter of the ballot cast. A copy of-this summary will be provided for-each minister and sent to President-Hoover, that he may be assured ofthe support of the Protestant clergyin his effort to maintain the eighteenth amendment.

198 Ministers Canvassed."Those appointed by the various de

nominational groups reported the re

sults to the chairman of the publicitycommittee of the Washington Federation of Churches, Dr. H. E. Woolever, who tabulated the same. Onebunded ninety-eight ministers, representing 19 Protestant denominations,were canvassed, with the result thatnot one Protestant pastor was found

among all the white clergy of the District of Columbia who was in favor of

repeal."The false impression which the

Literary Digest poll gives is very evident when the figures for the clergyof the District of Columbia as published in the Literary Digest of May3 and used widely by the daily pressare compared with a personal canvassof the Protestant ministers.

"According to the Literary Digestreport�Enforcement, 42; modification, 38; repeal, 234."According to statements of Pro

testant ministers who voted�En

forcement, 85; modification, 8; re

peal, 0."Certain observations arise in the

mind of any one studying a comparison of the Literary Digest report on

the poll of Washington pastors, andthe personal statement of the ministers in 19 denominations. In the first

place the Digest questionnaire is un

fair in that it does not give a voterthe opportunity to express his preference between prohibition and the

return of the liquor traffic. The pollhas also lent itself to a trick of the

wets to count those who voted for

modification. Those in this group ofProtestant ministers who voted modification, only eight in all, preferred,as far as we were able to learn, the

present law to repeal.


Striking Fact is Cited."The striking fact which complete

ly refutes the Literary Digest reportis that not a Protestant pastor amongthe white clergy of the District ofColumbia was found who had votedfor repeal. On the other hand, thenumber of Protestant ministers whodeclared that they had voted for en

forcement was twice as large as thenumber reported by the Digest as

voting for enforcement. Despite thefact that the Digest reported that

only 42 clergymen of the Protestant,Roman Catholic and Jewish churchesvoted for enforcement, 86 pastorswhose churches are affiliated with the

Washington Federation of Churchesdeclared they had voted for enforcement."Naturally there is much curiosity

as to where the Literary Digest se

cured the 234 ballots which it claimswere cast by clergymen of the District of Columbia for repeal. These

certainly did not come from the Protestant clergy of the District as the

foregoing taible proves.

_

"The largest number of ballots in

proportion to the number of ministerswere received by the Lutherans andthe Congregationalists and the lattercast the largest pro rata vote for en

forcement. The Lutheran clergymencast the largest vote, 5, for modification. However, they cast 11 for en

forcement. The Presbyterians cast

the greatest number of ballots for

any single denomination, 16, everyone for enforcement. The three Methodist groups, numbering 62 ministers,received only 23 ballots and cast 18

votes, all for enforcement.Held to be Misrepresented.

"The opinion of the pastors as ex

pressed in their first indignationmeeting,., that they had been grossly(^misrepresented and made to appear"in a false light, has been more thansubstantiated by the canvass made bya score of their number. Our tabulation leaves no doubt in our mind

as to the untrue and deceptive im

pression given by the Literary Digestpoll. Furthermore, our attention hasbeen called to a layman who received

eight ballots and the number who re

ceived three seems to be considerable."No canvass was made of the Ro

man Catholic clergy or any of the

Protestants other than the white min

isters. The figures give the lie to any

statement which would in anywise in

fer that the Protestant clergymen ofthe District of Columbia are otherthan overwhelmingly in favor of prohibition and its enforcement."As a result of the pastors' own in

vestigation a vigorous protest will besent to the Literary Digest.�The

Forty-three Years Ago.

The paycar of the B. ife 0. Railroadlast week brought $50,000 to Newark,Ohio. Accompanying the paymasterwas a man who gave the total absti

nence pledge to every employee as

the condition of being retained in the

employ of that road. The late terrible

accident, said to be due to drinking byan employee, probably accounts for

this action.�Union Signal, January

27, 1887.

Thirty-four Years Ago.

^The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad re

cently discharged some of its trainmen, not for drunkenness, but becausethey "took a glass now and then." "Apolicy of this nature is severe," saysthe Railway Age, "but it only needs a

moment's thought to see that it isfounded in reason . . . The railroadbusiness is one of exceeding responsibility. . . . Mental clearness is allimportant in the performance of itsduties, and strong drink tends to theconfusion of the faculties." This therailway managers evidently believe,for we are told that on most of theroads in America at the present time,knowledge that an employee touchesstrong drink in any form and at anytime, is sure to cost him his position.Union Signal, Oct. 22, 1896.

Just Before War-time Prohibition.

"The Great Northern Railroad hasannounced its intention of enforcingtotal abstinence among its employees.Even to take a glass of beer, if foundout, means dismissal."�Union Signal,April 29, 1915.

Why Bring It Back?

"The living force which is holdingback the prohibition wave all over theland is the cohesive union of the sa-

loonkeepers, which few candidatesdare to provoke."�New Orleans

Times, May 13, 1896.

A Sample of a Nation-Wide Condition.

A. committee of the Citizen'sLeague, Chicago, made up of leadingbusiness men, have been investigatingsome of the iigli . licensed saloons ofthat city, "Jerry Monroe's place," andthe "Alcazar" among them. They re

port a most revolting state of af

fairs, showing that every condition

upon which their licenses were issuedare continually violated. Jerry Monroe's license has been revoked; but

Mayor Harrison refused to revokethat of the "Alcazar" which is espec

ially noted as the resort of dissolute

women, saying that "lewd women are

a necessity."�Union Signal, January20, 1887.

Young Folks Gave Concern EvenThen.

"In the craze of material progresswe are neglecting the moral instruc

tion of the young people who are

coming on the stage to control the affairs of the nation. There never was

a time in our history when so manymen from the respectable classes

joined the great army of criminals.

If these conditions continue, the out

look will be dark indeed. The situa

tion bristles with problems which

should command the attention of ev

ery preacher, statesman and friend of

humanity."�^Atlanta, Ga., "Constitu

Too Tough Even For Their OwnAssociation.

The Chicago Tribune, August 22,1896, printed a dispatch from Mil

m * * *

Some years ago, while engaged in revivalmeetings, a very fine young man of prominent family in the Presbyterian Church, cameto me with a very sad story. He was a churchmember and told me that his outward life, asit appeared to others, was perhaps, above theaveS^e, but that his inward life had beenfearfully polluted with imaginations and desires that were unfit to be put into speech.For seven years he had lived in absolutedarkness, without a ray of hope. He believedthat he had committed unpardonable sin, andthat God's tender mercy was clean gone for-evermore.

I labored with this young man in prayerand exhortation for several days, when finally, he was able to break the bars of theprison-house of Giant Despair and to enterinto the beautiful life salvation. The Lordpoured great joy into his soul; for severaldays and nights he could hardly eat or sleep,but gave himself up into a holy intoxicationof praise and witnessing and speaking toothers about the wonders of God's grace, thepower of Christ to save, and the inexpressible joy that come to a heart after seven yearsof imprisonment in the dark dungeon of despair.

Many of our readers will remember Rev.L. M. Russell, of the Louisville Conference.I was assisting him in a revival meeting; a

man living in the town where we were labor

ing, sent for us and told us a fearful story ofawful sin. He had sinned with his eyes open.He had gone into a startling depth of wickedness. He had felt the restraining and warn

ing influence of the Holy Spirit, but had castit away from him and had plunged on into

wickedness. But he had reached the pointwhere sin brought him no gratification or

pleasure, but only added to his torture. Thehuman soul is so created that by and by thismust be true. It so rebels against sin and itsown pollution that its deep wickedness becomes a torment within, a smouldering fireof unutterable torture. It was so with thisman. Several times he had determined on

suicide, selected the spot and prepared the

instruments for the deed. His wife, who

watched him carefully, had seized hold upon

him, wept, prayed and entreated until thespell was temporarily broken. I think it wasthe worst case I ever saw. Brother Russelland I labored with him, prevailed upon himto attend the meetings and come to the altarfor prayer. He did so, and was wonderfullysaved. He walked the aisles of the church,praised God and exhorted the people.

It may be that these writings will fall intothe hands oi some one who has been capturedby Giant Despair and locked up in DoubtingCastle. It is a fearful condition. It hasdriven some to suicide. Fellowbeing, brother, sister, whoever you are, I plead with youin the name of the God who loves you, th�!Christ who died for you, and the Holy Spiritwho is ready to come to your relief, to breakthe bars of your captivity and to bring youout into glorious freedom from doubt andsin. Resolve this moment, to forsake all sin,and to cry to God for mercy. Let nothinghinder you. Order Satan to depart in thename of Christ. Tell your doubts that youhate and despise them, and they shall dominate you no longer. Look to Jesus ! Pray tohim, trust in him, confess to him; resolvethat you will never let go, but if you mustdie, you will die pleading for his mercy andtrusting in his love. He will not turn youaway.

The Devil's Letter to His SpecialCo-workers and Servants.


Letter No. 1.

^^^^^ 0' all of my devoted servants

CT^^^^ who, for any cause, are interest-

l^^^^v^ ed in the liquor traffic, and are

^^Ax^ opposed to every phase of prohi-^^^^^ bition of that traffic, I send

greeting.I must congratulate you on the splendid

service you are rendering to me and the kingdom of darkness over which I am supposed torule. There is not, nor has there been,through all the history of the human race,any one thing that has so assisted me in thedestruction of mankind as strong drink.Wars come and go, but the war of strongdrink upon human beings has never ceased.It is my choice servant, a very demon of destruction, which has hovered with its blackwings of death and hell over humanitythroughout the centuries.If there is anything I hate it is happy

homes. They must not exist if we can possibly prevent it. I have been able to break up,impoverish and destroy more homes withstrong drink than with everything else Icould possibly invent, put together. If thetragedies that have come into the homes ofthe people through drunkenness, the mur

dering of wives, the beating and abuse, starvation and nakedness of children; and thesuicides that have been wrought by the drinkhabit could be written up it would make a

library of books.

You know it is my very nature to hatepeace, beauty, happiness, love. I delight inthe curse and destruction of everything thatin any way contributes to the well being ofmankind. I love murder. There is nothingthat so slakes my burning thirst as the bloodof the poor slaughtered, victims that have!been brought about by drunkenness.We have gotten Canada about as nearly

fixed to suit you and me as we can hope forthe present. The pits down here are beingcrowded with drunkards and drunkard-makers coming down from Canada. We wantnow to combine our forces against the UnitedStates. If the Eighteenth Amendment remains in the Constitution, and the Volsteadlaw is diligently enforced the eifect on myheadquarters will be fearful. The pits ofperdition set apart for the home-coming ofpeople from the United States have sufferedfearfully since prohibition went into effectin that country. Of course, the public press,which is very largely under my control, isdoing its utmost to break down the law, toencourage the criminal class and to bringback the saloottr- I have no better frientJsthan the editors of many of the big daily papers who have given themselves to, as far aspossible, destroy prohibition. They encourage bootlegging. They are my chief servants.Oh boys, but don't you know I have a placereserved for them down here! They willnever need their overcoats, and it will dothem no good to bring asbestos suits, and Ipromise them that they will never catch coldwhen I get them where they belong. Butdon't say anything about this. It is our business to deceive and delude our dupes, theenemies of God and humanity.I have a few faithful servants in the Sen

ate and Congress of the United States. Iwas looking over the list the other day and Ifind that every one of the Senators and Congressmen who stand for the liquor traffic,who oppose prohibition, is one of my own

children, a faithful servant.I was a bit amused when I found the name

oif this new Senator they are going to getfrom New Jersey. Some imp had written opposite his name "the bung starter." I was alittle inclined to laugh, but I didn't. To tellyou the truth, I can't laugh. There is nolaughter in hell. There is no law against it,but there needn't be a law. The people whocome into this region leave all laughter behind. There hasn't been the symptom of asmile in this place in 6,000 years.I want to tell you confidentially, that it

was a great thing for our work when thatman, Sam Jones, died. He was a great damage and hindrance to my plans. You see thatman spoke with great plainness. He was inearnest and his messages counted for prohibition. I am mighty glad Billy Sunday isgrowing old. He has hurt us fearfully. Heshoots to kill. He's got the truth on us andhe doesn't hesitate to speak in such plainlanguage that he powerfully arouses sentiment against us. That man Sunday is worth



NOTES FROM THE OLD COUNTRY.Rev. G. W. Ridout D.D., Corresponding Editor.

�BHppppiiil I am writing these notes fromBBr^ ! 'liff College up in the hills�

^ beautiful for situation�a n dnear to Sheffield, that great

inflK^ jfl English center for cutlery, and

nH^'iraP so ifar from Manchester, thell^^^^l second largest city of England,

and one of the great cotton man

ufacturing cities. We go from here to preachat Manchester over Sunday and to do some

speaking also Monday and Tuesday.Cliff College is one of the holiness centers

of England and the school is run very muchon the same lines as Asbury, Fletcher, Taylor, of the U. S. A. The note of full salvationruns through the singing, the testimony, thepreaching, and the lecturing. The youngpreachers go out from here with souls on fireto preach a free and full salvation.Rev. Samuel Chadwick is one of the great

men and one oif the great preachers of Methodism in England. Here's just a note fromone of his sermons at the anniversary:"There is a large congregation. The Pres

ident, Rev. S. Chadwick's, message on 1 Pet.1:1-2, has cleared the ground of thought onholiness. Every believer in Christ is ordained into a triumphant life, elected into sanc-

tification :

"Ere suns and moons could wax or wane.Ere stars were thunder-girt, or piledThe heavens, God thought on me, His| child,Ordained a life for me.""His will is our sanctification. We are calledinto the inheritance of the elect. Are we living the life God planned ? It is blasphemy todeny its possibility for what God requires;he enables, and 'if nothing is too hard forthee, all things are possible to me.' It becomes possible through a second work ofgrace, as definite as conversion, in which life,heart, mind and will are purified, unified andempowered ifor perfect obedience to God."

Writing about the School one has said:Cliff College is a school of old-fashioned Wesley-

fire and fervour. Our joy is the rapture of Pentecost, the recovered radiance of the Christian religion, the happy abandon of the early Methodists. Cliffis the home of song and spiritual glee. Everybodyloves our singing; not everybody knows how it isborn.Cliff teaches men to love prayer. They learn as

thejr watch. Our daily life is a pageant of Providence. The right man arrives, the needed moneycomes, the proper method is revealed, the impossibleis accomplished in answer to prayer. So strengthened faith kindles the love of prayer and the passionof communion.Our assurance is founded in experience and the

Word of God. Our experience requires the witnessof the Word; the witness of the Word confirms our

experience. The securities of our faith are intact.We are not shaken by modern "psychologism": our

hope is beyond its range. Modern criticism does notalarm us: we know the Word of God as a religiousunity. We have a reason for the hope that is within us; we know in Whom we have believed. Ourmessage is the Gospel as understood through theexperience of the indwelling Christ.The outward expression of the Cliff Spirit is in

aggressive Evangelism. During the term, the brethren are organized into groups, and attack the sur

rounding towns and villages. In the vacations, theyvolunteer for work on team missions and on Trek.It is of the latter that we would speak especially.In answer to an inspiration given to the Principal ina time of weakness in 1925, the first Cliff Trek setout. Some ten men tramped over four hundredmiles, sleeping on schoolroom floors or in a tent, living under camp conditions. All the way theypreached and testified, and everywhere they saw

men and women converted. They became known as

the Methodist Friars; they combined the universalGospel and assured testimony of the early Methodists with the joyous sacrifice and the simple lifeof the first Franciscans. Each year in increasingnumbers, but in the same simple way, the CliffFriars have taken the road. In parties of eight toten, they have trekked a distance totalling over fivethousand miles. They have borne witness on villagegreens and market squares, on crowded pleasurebeaches and race-courses, to crowds of every sizeand kind. Everywhere they found a ready responseto their appeal.I think when it comes to evangelism Eng

land has many advantages over us Americans, She can teach us many lessons. In the

great cities the Methodists get the crowds totheir great Central Gospel Missions. In London Dr. Dinsdale Young carries on a greatMission right over from Westminster Abbeywhere, every Sunday, thousands attend hisministry and he preaches the gospel of fullsalvation and also the Second Coming. In a

previous article I wrote about Footing, London, another great Central Mission where Ipreached to nearly 2,000 people Sundaynight, and Mrs. Ridout spoke Monday to 700women. Why do we not do something alongthis line in the great cities of America instead of selling out our down-town churchproperty and then moving away out at EasyStreet in the suburbs where we. have the richand the indolent and the pleasure lovers andhalf empty churches. We need to learn toreach the masses so as to sing again :

"Come all ye souls by sin oppressed.Ye restless wanderers after rest.Ye poor, and maimed, and halt, and blind.In Christ a hearty welcome find,"I have been reading the book "Collier of

Manchester." It is a wonderful story of Rev.S. F. Collier of the Manchester Mission,(Wesleyan Methodist) . When he went therehe went to a down-town church which hadbeen run to the ground, his first congregationhaving thirty-two people in it. The Methodists led by that giant and prophet. Dr. HenryJ. Pope, instead of selling their property forbusiness purposes and getting a big sum forit which would enable them to go to thesuburbs and erect a nice fashionable church,as the people do in America, decided to builda Mission Hall on the site of the old church,and when it was finished they called Collierto man the new situation. This he did, andhe spent thirty-six years at this one post.Within twelve months the crowds who came

to Collier's gospel service grew so large thattliey had to move the evening services to a

large theater and finally had to move to theFree Trade Hall, one of the largest auditoriums in Manchester, and there he preachedon Sunday nights for twenty-one years ; possibly this was the largest Methodist congregation in the world. One of Collier's favoritepoems was that of Myers, in which occurs

these lines :

"Oft when the Word is on me to deliver.Opens the heaven and the Lord is there ;

Desert or throng, the city or the river.Melt in a lucid Paradise of air.

"Only like souls I see the folks thereunder.Bound who should conquer, slaves who

should be kings,�Hearing their one hope with an empty won

derSadly contented in a show of things :�

"Then with a ru,sh the intolerable cravingShivers throughout me like a trumpet

call,�Oh to save these ! to perish for their saving.Die for their life, he offered for them all."Collier never finished his college work ; he

had matriculated and hoped that in Manchester he might finish his course at Owen College, but he was kept so busy with his workand the overwhelming duties the Missionthrust upon him, consumed his time andstrength. Whittier's noble lines seem to ex

press how Collier felt:"No trumpet sounded in his ear,He saw not Sinai's cloud and flame

But never yet to Hebrew seerA clearer voice of duty came.

"God said : Break thou these yokes ; undoThese heavy burdens. I ordain

A work to last thy whole life through,A ministry of strife and pain.

"Forego thy dreams of lettered ease.Put thou the scholar's promise by,

The needs of man are more than these.He heard, and answered : 'Here am I.' "

Collier preached to the multitudes, to themasses�not to the classes.

"Unto the poorAmong mankind he was in service bound.As by some tie invisible, oaths professedTo a religious order."Let me give this one story to finish with.

Touching Collier, he told his friend GipsySmith that on one occasion it was fouro'clock on Sunday afternoon before he gothis first chance to look at his text ifor hisevening sermon, and he said: "When I satdown at my desk I felt so absolutely worn '

out that before I knev/ what I was doing Iwas fast asleep, and I slept soundly until fiveo'clock. But I had my sermon." "Of course,you had," said Gipsy. "The Lord wouldrather let the sky fall than not give you a sermon after such a week's work."I think now I shall finish this article with

a little anthology on the Holy Spirit whichI gather from one of the Methodist papers:The highest life of the soul is from both Christ

and the Holy Spirit. It must be from both, buttheir functions are different. The Holy Spirit supplies the Divine motive power by which we perpetually deepen within us the Divine life of Christ.Christ is the Truth, the Holy Spirit is the DivineTeacher. Christ is the atmosphere, the Holy Spiritis the Christian's breath, his inspiration. St. Paulspeaks both of the Communion of the Body andBlood of Christ, and the Communion (Fellowship)of the Holy Spirit; the latter is the power by whichwe get the former. Christ is "our life," the HolySpirit is the kinetic energy by which we progress towards it. Christ is our Eighteousness, our Salvation, our Mediator; the Holy Spirit is our Sanctifier,carrying on, in co-operation with our wills, the process of making us actually as individuals whatChrist has made us potentially as one whole.�A. H.McNeile, D.D.The gift of the Spirit means a new quality of

sheer living. It is nothing far-fetched or ecclesiastical, but the emergence of finer and richer humanmaterial in average commonplace men and women.Our Lord described in the Beatitudes that temperand attitude of mind and will which make for thecoming of the Kingdom. St. Paul's great lyric in1 Cor. xiii. is, as it were, the Sermon on the Mountrewritten in the light of Pentecost ... it is a description of "Agape"�that distinctively new Christian quality for which no word in our language isadequate. It describes what human life begins tolook like when the Spirit gets to work on it.�Prof.Barry, "The Holy Spirit in the Church.""He must have very little spirit," says St. Ber

nard, "who thinks that a spirit is nothing."The password of the Spirit worldAnd the word from the Spirit throne.By which the fiends from their seats are hurled.And the knights of Christ are known.On a silent peakYour God will speak.As He only speaks to His own;On a lonely spotWhere the people come notOn the mount. Himself, alone.

�Principal P. T. Forsyth.The finest passage that has ever been written on

the Comforter occurs in a book of St. Basil's whowas Bishop of Cappadocia in the fourth century. ... In our own tongue we have two quite monumental works on the Holy Spirit. The one is thework of Dr. John Owen and the other is the classicalwork of Dr. Thomas Goodwin. And then we havean exquisite spiritual and intellectual gem by Jonathan Edwards. ... At the same time, if you willlearn to sing Harriet Auber's well-known hymn("Our Blest Redeemer") with the spirit and withthe understanding also, you miss little or nothingbecause you are not devoted readers of the bestbooks of Greek and English divinity.�AlexanderWhyte.

A New Trail Throu^K The New Testament.Rev. Andrew Johnson, D. D.

PAUL TEACHES TIMOTHY.

favorite expression of Paul and a

feature of the Pastoral Epistlesis the expression, Faithful is theSaying, (Pistos Ho Logos in theGreek). It is used five times inthe books of Timothy and Titus

and always in connection with some specialtruth or important duty. It seems to constitute the rallying cry of the Apostle as hepours forth a volume of valuable instructionto Timothy and Titus, his illustrious sons inthe gospel. He underscores a good point byreverting to the formula�Pistos ho Logos.It may be that this favorite saying which oc

curs in 1 Tim. 1:15; 1 Tim 3:1; 2 Tim. 2:11and Titus 3:8 was a watchword currentamong the Christians at the time Paulpenned the pastorals.In the continuation of the trail we will pro

ceed to the interpretation of the nine distinctcharges which Paul, the peerless apostle, delivered to Timothy in the first pastoral epistle.

1. The first charge to Timothy is bothpositive and negative. Paul stationed Timothy as pastor at Ephesus and exhorted himto charge or command certain men not toteach a different doctrine. In brief not toteach heterodoxy. The word in the originalis heterodidas-kalein. He was also to chargethem not to give heed to fables and endlessgenealogies. These were not the Gnostictheories of emanations and aeons whichflourished in the Second Century of theChristian era, but were idle Jewish legendsand genealogical claims. Paul put great emphasis upon true doctrine as opposed to falsedoctrine, or upon orthodoxy as contradistinguished from heterodoxy. The modern depreciation of doctrine is not a sure sign ofreligious promotion, but is rather an indication of moral weakness and spiritual indifference. Truth which makes us free is theessence of all evangelical doctrines. HencePaul's first charge to Timothy is an exhortation to conserve the correct form of doctrineby taking a firm stand against all phases ofheterodoxy. The ban of official denunciationmust, [from the very beginning, be put uponthe heterodidas-kalein of heresy.But, Paul's charge was not merely of a

negative character. It was also positive.But the end of the commandment (thecharge which Paul delivered to Timothy) islove out of a pure heart and a good con

science and faith free from hypocrisy.(1 Tim. 1:5). The end of the commandmentin this connection means the end of thecharge that Paul was delivering to Timothy.Hence Timothy was not only to inculcate or

thodoxy, proscribe heterodoxy, hut was tocultivate a good conscience, a sincere faithand maintain a pure heart filled with perfectlove.From the foregoing charge it appears that

Paul held a very high standard O'f personaland practical piety as a goal to be realizea

the preachers of the gospel in Apostolictimes. It is just the same today.

2. The second charge to Timothy requireshim to teach the duty and privilege of publicprayer and intercession. Paul says: "I exhort, therefore, first of all that supplications,prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, bemade for all men ; for kings and all that arein authority that we may lead a tranquil andquiet life in all godliness and gravity." (1Tim. 2:1, 2). "I will (wish) therefore thatmen pray everywhere (in every place) lifting up holy hands without wrath and doubting," (disputing). (1 Tim. 2:8). Note theexpression�first of all. Fir^t in point oftime and first in the way of importance. Paulwould have Timothy to put great emphasisupon the necessity of prayer. The elementsof prayer, such as supplication, intercession

and thanksgiving, appear in this connectionas if analyzed and outlined. The universality of the duty of prayer is here presented.I will that men pray everywhere. The man

ner of earnest prayer is also taught. Them.odel suppliant is to lift up holy hands without wrath and doubting. This was the gesture of the early Christians. How differentis the cold, classical, formal, stylish, cityprayer of the present day !

3. The third charge to Timothy has reference to the proper behaviour of womenand their place in the church. This apostoliccharge begins with the expression�Likewiseor in like manner. (1 Tim. 2:9). Somecommentators translate the Greek word inthis connection to mean "so also" rather thanlikewise. They do this in order to break thecontinuity between the eighth and ninthverses. They claim that there is no likenessin the conduct enjoined on women to whathas gone before. This feature of interpretation characterizes the expositors who denythe privilege of public prayer to the women.

But they cannot maintain this view according to the Scriptures. The Greek for likewise in this connection is hoosautoos and istranslated likewise in Matt. 20:5; Mark14 :31 ; Rom. 8 :26 and Titus 2 :3, 6. It alwaysconnects what follows with what has gonebefore. The likewise in this connection re

fers to the duty and privilege of public prayer. He has just stated that men should prayeverywhere. The like manner in verse ninegrants the women the privilege to pray, provided they adorn themselves in comely apparel with modesty and prudence, godlinessand good works. But, he continues, I do notpermit a woman to dictate or usurp authority over man but to be in quietness or silence. The woman is allowed to pray or

prophesy, but not to dictate or usurp authority over the man. Paul would not deprivethe woman of the duty and privilege of public prayer. The word, likewise, indicates theapostle's position in this respect. Howeverthe conjunction, but, (de in the Greek) showsthat he is opposed to women dictating andexercising official authority over men in thepolity of the church. I do not know how theApostle would get along with Amee McPher-son if he lived in the present age of theworld.

4. The fourth charge to Timothy relatesto the qualification and commission of eldersin the church. Here Paul recurs to the keyword of the Pastorals. Pistos ho Logos��

Faithful is the saying. It is difficult to tellwhether the formula closes the second chapter or introduces the third chapter. At timesit seems that the pistos ho logos clinches a

truth, and at other times it appears to introduce a maxim. But the present divisionof the Bible into chapters puts the formulaas an introductory to the statement concerning the bishopric in the third chapter. "Itis a faithful saying. If a man seeketh the office of a bishop (episcopes) he desireth a

good work" (1 Tim. 3:1). Dr. W. B. God-bey, who was a good Greek scholar, translates the sentence as follows: "If any one

desires the episcopacy, he covets a beautifulwork." But the word kalos means good as

well as beautiful, while the primary meaningis beautiful. In a former article we have ex

plained that the terms bishop and elder are

synonymous. The New Testament does notteach or sanction the form or function of thebishopric as it is now understood in the ec

clesiastical world. In apostolic times thebishop was an elder and an elder was a bishop. They were simply overseers in thechurch. The qualifications for bishops as

laid down by the Apostle Paul were essen

tially moral and spiritual. A bishop mustbe blameless, the husband of one wife, modest, prudent, orderly, hospitable, competent to

teach, gentle, peaceable, no lover of money,having his children in subjection or subordination with all gravity. Withal he must notbe a novice. He must be a man of sense andexperience. If a bishop lives up to the Pauline standard of a high and holy requirementhe will have his hands full. He will have tobe a good man, a wise man, a strong man, aholy man and a great man. If all who haveborne the high title and distinction of a bishop in the Christian church had fully measured up to the Scriptural standard set forth byPaul in his Epistle to Timothy there wouldhave been a different history of the conquestof Christianity in the world. Many bishops,we are glad to say, have measured up to theBible standard and have blessed the worldwith their holy and useful lives.

5. The fifth charge to Timothy concernsthe qualifications of deacons and deaconesses.Hear Paul's charge to deacons. He says:"Deacons in like manner must be grave, notdouble-tongued, not given to much wine, notgreedy of filthy lucre ; holding the mystery ofthe faith in a pure conscience. And let thesealso first be proved; then let them serve as

deacons, if they be blameless. That big little word, if, cuts quite a figure in the Paulinecharge delivered to his son Timothy.Here again the women in like manner ap

pear upon the stage of ecclesiastical polity.Women in this verse (1 Tim. 3 :11) are translated both by Lightfoot and Ellicott as deaconesses. It is thought that instructionsabout women in general would not be thusparenthetically inserted. The order of deaconesses evidently came into existence at a

very early date, yet we doubt if Paul usedthe term in this sense in his letter to Timothy. We are inclined to accept the KingJames translation and consider the Paulineinstructions as given to the wives of deacons.In passing Paul takes a lick at asceticism,

saying that the Spirit speaketh expresslythat in the last times certain ones will depart from the faith giving heed to seducingspirits and the doctrines of devils�forbidding to marry and commanding to abstainfrom meats. (1 Tim. 4 :l-3) .

6. The sixth charge to Timothy is personal. Paul begins his charge by saying�"Letno man despise thy youth; but be thou anexample to them that believe in word, inmanner of life, in love, in faith, in purity.Till I come give attendance to reading, ex

hortation, to teaching. Neglect not the giftthat is in thee by prophecy, with the layingon of the hands of the presbytery." Thischarge contains the finest advice ever givento a young preacher. It is a classic on thisline. The minister who will carry out thePauline instructions herein given will makea success in the greatest work in the world.

7. The seventh charge to Timothy regards widows and accusations against elders.The alms of the church went to the supportof widows who were widows indeed. Herewe see that the church blazed the way onthe line of benevolence and philanthropy.The lodges owe much to Christianity for thegreat lesson of taking care of the widow andthe orphans.Paul did not exhort Timothy to bestow the

benevolences of the church upon the merryyoung widows who were in the market for asecond marriage. (1 Tim. 5:11).In regard to the elders the apostle de

clares : "The laborer is worthy of his hire."Bring not an accusation against an elder, except before two or three witnesses." (1 Tim5:18,19).

8. The eighth charge to Timothy concernsslaves and their masters. We see here theway Christianity abolished slavery. It inculcated principles incompatible with slavery,

A CROOKED MAN MADE STRAIGHT.Rev. W. B. Walker

"And he said, let me go, for the day break-eth. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me." Gen. 32:26.

T is interesting to note the method Abraham used in securingIsaac a wife. Abraham was thegrandfather of Jacob. In our

lesson we have the world-famous twins. In the narrative

we read, "And the boys grew : and Esau was

a cunning hunter, a man of the field; andJacob was a plainman, dwelling in tents."

Esau, came in from a long hunt, franticfor food, and smells the savory dish that Jacob was preparing. Immediately Jacob sees

the deep hunger in his brother's eye, andsays, "What will you give me?" "What will

you take?" "Your birthright." Esau says,"Oh, well I will die if I don't get somethingto eat quick, take the birthright and give me

the pottage." It seems that Jacob was thefather of the modern bargain counter. Theworld is always after bargains. The bargain-day and the bargain-counter are thecrowded day and the crowded counter.

It was indeed a great loss for Esau to sellhis birthright. The birthright consisted ofthe following particulars: The first born in

every home was to be peculiarly consecratedto God. The first born was also next in honorto the parents. Also, the first born was given a double portion of the father's goods.Then, the first born succeeded his father inthe government of the home and the kingdom. And the first born had the sole right toconduct the service of God in the temple.Thus Esau's loss was irreparable.When Isaac was old and his eyesight dim,

he called his eldest son Esau, and commanded him to kill a venison and make savourymeat. When Esau goes to the forest to bringdown some choice game for the father, Rebecca hastens to prepare a kid to send Jacobinto his father's presence. God had said,"The elder shall serve the younger." ButRebecca could not see how God can work thematter out, as it was contrary to all customand law. She feels that God is in a tightplace, and she goes to desperate lengths to

help him out. When God speaks it is safe to

believe and wait for results. God promiseda Redeemer to fallen humanity, and in duetime Christ came. God told Abraham thathe would send a deliverer and bring his peo

ple out of Egypt with a high hand. Moseswith a mighty hand led them out in due time.He is faithful that promised.Jacob was obedient to his mother, but he

has great fear in carrying out the mother'swishes. He says unto his mother, "My father peradventure will feel me and I shall seema deceiver and he will curse me instead." The

only thing that worried him was the fear of

getting caught. It is all right to lie if youare not caught. Crime is not criminal. It isthe getting caught that is criminal. No, it isnot sinful to rob a bank, it is the apprehension that becomes sin.Rebecca puts a skin over Jacob's face and

hands to deceive his father. No, they are not

going to tell a lie, they were to act a lie. The

most damnable lie is the lie that is only acted. It's the lie of a hypocrite. As Jacobstands before his father, he was greatly sur

prised to hear his father asking questions."Who art thou?" "I am Esau, thy firstborn." Look at Jacob trembling before hisfather ! He did not expect to get in deep.The robber does not plan to kill. "How is itthou hast found it so quickly?" "Becausethe Lord thy God brought it to me." Yes, thedevil brought it, but what matters that tohis deceiver. "Art thou my very son Esau?"By this time Jacob is becoming sick of hisjob. But, finally he answers, "I am." Onesin demands another.Jacob receives the blessing, hastens out,

wiping the sweat from his brow, and says, "Iam glad that's ended at last." Ended? It wasonly begun. And infidel in Illinois wrote toa paper, "I plowed my field on Sunday, planted the corn on Sunday, cultivated it, cut it,husked it, hauled it on Sunday, and I findthat I have more corn per acre than any thathas been cribbed in this neighborhood thisOctober." The editor printed the letter andthen put under it in capil;als, "GODDOESN'T ALWAYS SETTLE HIS ACCOUNTS IN QCTOBER." Because judgment against evil works is not executedspeedily, men think God has forgotten. Themills of God may grind slowly, but they willnot cease to grind.For fifty years it looked as though Jacob's

sin was forgotten, but it wasn't. Jacob slewa kid to deceive his father, and his son slewa kid to deceive him. He lied to his father,and his sons lied to him. "With what measure ye meet, it shall be measured to youagain." Rob, and you'll be robbed. Hate,and you'll be hated. Haman swings from hisown gallows. You cannot separate sowingand reaping. "He that soweth sparingly,shall also reap sparingly. Jacob sowed thewind, and reaped the whirlwind.It is one thing when a young man volun

tarily goes away from home to better himself. It is quite another when he is forced toleave home, because of something he hasdone, that makes it impossible for him to re

main. From the hour that Jacob cheated hisbrother out of the blessing, Esau slept withone eye open watching his chance of revenge.Under the scourge of fear, Jacob flees. Weread: "And Jacob went out." Those are thewords that were written of Cain. "And Cainwent out from the presence of the Lord."What a lash is sin. Its scorpion sting droveAdam from Eden, the prodigal to the swine-pen, Judas to suicide, Nebuchadnezzar to thebeasts. Sin drives its victims to tragicends. Oh, man beware how you love sin, forin the end there will be a terrible harvest!When the evening shadows began to fall,

a home-sickness crept over Jacob, and helonged for the tender resting place of childhood. But, he only had the sky for a shelter, hooting owls for company, and thestones of Bethel for a pillow. Doubtless hethought, "I am away from home and con

science now." But, was he away from con

science? No, for that very night he was

forced to say, "Surely the Lord is in this

place, and I knew it not." Distance cannotobscure the testimony of conscience. Noteven the flight of time will obscure its voice.Years may roll�twenty, thirty, forty yearsgone�but conscience never forgets. Its testimony is the same after the flight of yearsas it was when the sin was committed. Thereis no escape from conscience so long as it isalive. A young man may flee from home,and pride himself by saying, "I am now

away from home, and I will not go to churchand Sunday school as in other days," but hewill run into Bethel's stones. It is easy lo

sin, it is not so easy to lie on sin's stony pillow. Sin makes a hard bed. "The way ofthe tifansgressor is hard."The Lord appeared unto Jacob in a dream

that night. And the voice of the Lord saysunto this young deceiver, "I am the GOD OFJACOB." What a name for God�"the GODOF JACOB." Who can conceive of God being the God of a cheat, a supplanter, and a

liar? Yes, he is the God of sinful and wickedJacob, and the God of all sinners. "And sheshall bring forth a son, and thou shall call liisname Jesus, for he shall save his people fromtheir sins." He came to seek and to save

that which was lost."And there appeared to Jacob a ladder

that reached to heaven." A young man saidunto his college professor, "When I finishschool I have brilliant prospects before me. Ishall become rich and famous." "And then?""I shall marry a wife and travel much.""And then?" "I shall settle down and enjoylife." "And then?" "I shall grow old andtake things easy." "And then?" "I suppose, like other people, I will die." "Andthen?" The young man grew pale before thelast "And then." His ladder did not reach toheaven. Does your ladder reach to heaven?Jacob was at one end of the ladder, and hesaw the Lord at the other end. And he said,"If God will�I will."During this night of dreams Jacob made

some solemn vows. It is one thing to make a

vow, it is quite another thing to pay thosevows. In Bethel Jacob promises the Lord topay one tenth of all that comes into his possession. Now the sun has risen in all heroriental splendor, and Jacob is well on hisway. Soon he reaches the land of his kindred. He hires to Laban his uncle.This shrewd and sharp trader meets his

match. The man who is always trying to getthe better of other people will sometime findhis match. Laban was a kind, and congenialfellow to work for, but he would fleece you ofyour last penny. When Jacob met Laban,Greek had met Greek.In all those years of cheating, there was

but one bright spot. "And Jacob lovedRachel and served for her seven years, andthey seemed but a few days for the love hehad for her." Love will do anything that i&right. A young Mohammedan ruler told hiswife he would build her the most magnificenttemple ever built. The wife suddenly dying,crying out in his grief, the young king said,''You shall yet have your temple, though nowit be your tomb." So, for twenty years,twenty-two thousand men labored, and twen-

ty million dollars were spent, and there stoodthe indescribable Taj Mahal of India, andover its great door the inscription, "To thememory of an undying love." Jacob enduredthe frost by night, the famine by day, the de

ception and wrong, for love's sake.Jacob having fully repaid Laban for all

his cheating with compound interest, slipsaway at night for his native land. Labanovertakes him in .Mizpah and there ensues a

bitter quarrel. May all our differences so

sweetly end. Laban had changed Jacob'swages ten times, cheated him out of seven

years' salary, defrauded him by many a

trick, but now they come to a satisfactoryagreement. Differences are not so difficultto settle, if both parties are willing to settlethem. Both sides must be willing to takethe blame.But as Jacob hastens from the face of La

ban he is sadly informed that his brotherEsau is coming to meet him with four hundred trained soldiers. The ghost of twenty-five years rises before him. He remernbersEsau's vow to slay him at the first opportunity. He sends all his family and the herdsacross the Jabbok stream. All iiuman helpgone, the narrative says, "Jacob was leftdone." Esau was in front of him, Labanbehind him, bandit robbers all about him.The only way open was up. When all otherways are closed, the upward way is alwaysopen. Moses was in a similar condition whenhe stood before the Red Sea, with mountainson either side, and the iron-hand of Pharaohat his heels. Jacob was at last cornered. Heis in a tight place. He was like Peter whenhe was sinking, like Job when he was

stripped, like Samson when he was in prison,Jacob cries to Gk)d for help.He wrestles with the angel until the break

of day. At last the day breaks in the East,and God breaks Jacob�his thigh, his self,his crooked nature, and Jacob comes out ofthe struggle limping, but ever walkingstraight. It is easy to straighten a sprout,but to take the twist out of a knotted oak is

not so easy. God had to break Jacob beforehe could make him straight. That night Godplunged Jacob into the furnace, not to de

stroy him, but to destroy the dross, to burnout the dirt, to refine him."In the furnace God did prove himThence to bring him forth more bright."That night Jacob received a new name, be

cause he' received a new nature. "Thy name

shall be no longer Jacob, but Israel." Thatlast syllable, "el," is the Hebrew for God.Bethel is the House of God, Peniel the Face

of God, but Israel is the Name of God. Jacobthe supplanter, now Jacob the prince of God-.This is an immortal illustration of what Godcan do with the most unpromising material.God is like Angelo who could take a scarred,cracked, worthless marble and chisel from it

a heavenly image."And the time drew near when Jacob must

die." What a hard word, that word "must.'"Must die" is written of us all. "The time

draweth nigh." With' his twelve sons gathered about him, the old man stretched out his

hands in giving the parting blessing to them,and calmly waits the call home. His childrenwatch him and listen for his fluttering heart

to cease its labors. On a sudden he lifts his

arm and points his bony finger into the far-

off, and,cries out, "Shilo will come."

Revival Methods.The honest method in revival work takes

longer, but it lasts longer in its good results.

What is the honest method? Begin with the

people where they are, and lead theni for

ward. Preach against sm, and preach the

importance of forsaking sin ; but that is not

enough. Preach the new birth, insist on it,contend for it, demand it, make it, as it is,an absolute essential to entrance into the

kingdom of heaven. You may rely on the

Spirit to enforce the truth, and produce con-

^^^siiali we not preach holiness? Certainly

�when you have some people to preach holiness to. You can't teach people higher mathematics who do not know their multiplication table. It is not only useless to castpearls before swine, but it is dangerous, a

great waste of pearls, and an unkindness tothe swine. They will rend you. Beginwith the people where they are and lead themon to where they ought to be. It will taketime, hard work, great patience, and there iswear and tear, and not quite so much money,but it will turn in the dividends later on.

And then it is to be remembered that yourown character is affected by your work. Inthe midst of a great religious hurrah youmay be losing your religious life. At honest,thorough work you grow in grace all thetime.In sensational rush, extreme methods, the

work will not last so well, the people do nothold together, and you tire and sicken ofyourself, and are in great danger of fallingaway. 'That which lasts until the judgmentday is all that counts.Then, when it comes to dealing with the

souls of men, let us be honest, and do thorough work. Let's begin patiently with men

where they are, and lead them on to that holiness without which no man shall see theLord. Let's run a race with no one, but let'spress the battle on a safe Scriptural basis forthe salvation of souls.


FRANTIC CRIES OF, DISTRESS.By Georgia Robertson.

^>^?58 UDGING from the frantic cries

V_j|A^ of the wets over violations of the

^^^fi^^ Eighteenth Amendment, andytfJ^Vil their oft repeated statementHb^^^S^ that it is unenforcible and there

fore must be repealed or our

country will be ruined, one would think thatthere had never been any violation of liquorlaws until the adoption of the EighteenthAmendment !Before the saloons were wiped out who

ever heard these same wets utter a word ofcomplaint against the constant violations ofthe liquor laws then on the statute books, bysaloons, distillers, brewers, liquor- dealers,bootleggers and speak-easies ? Or who ever

heard them protest against the sinister power wielded by the liquor interests in politicsat every election?When did they ever protest against the

danger to the country because the saloonswere violating the law by selling to minors,to confirmed drunkards, and to women and

girls who frequented rooms connected withsaloons ?Did they ever raise their voices in protest

against the flagrant violations by saloons of

week-day closing hours and the Sunday closing laws? Did they ever make any protestagainst the moonshiners whose illicit stillsthe Federal Government was constantlysearching out? Or did they make any protest against the bootleggers and speak-easiesthat flourished in those saloon days?Whoever heard the wets raise their voices

in protest against the saloons frequently violating the law by locating within the prescribed number of feet from public schoolbuildings and churches?Where can any record be found that they

ever attempted to suppress or to reform thesaloon that was ruining thousands of men

and youths, and robbing helpless women andchildren of their daily bread?Who among them ever protested against

the partnership between the saloon and the

red-light district, both of which were spreading crime and disease broadcast throughoutour nation?The wets never seemed disturbed by the

constant violations of the liquor laws of the

country in the old saloon days! But now

knowing that our aroused people will neverconsent to the return of the vile, law-defying

saloon, they hope by declaring that the saloonmust never come back to strengthen

_

theirown position in asking for the restoration ofliquor.These same wets were never disturbed

over violations of the liquor laws until theythemselves came up against the law that deprived them of liquor. Then, not havingsufficient nobility of character to be willingto forego their own self-gratification for thegood of the public at large, including helpless women and children�victims of drunken husbands and fathers too weak to resistopen temptation�they sought through thefrantic cry of law violation, and the oft-repeated unenforcibility of the EighteenthAmendment, to break it down and so secureits repeal.The suggestion of the wets that the liquor

question be left for each of the 48 states todetermine and enforce for itself is not thebrilliant solution they would have us believe.We had state control in the old saloon days,and the imaginary line called the state boundary prevented no one from stepping acrossit laden with contraband liquor, or fromdriving over it with outlawed liquor into theadjoining dry state�though the FederalGovernment controlled (supposedly) interstate commerce in liquor.The wet's proposition that the Federal

Government help any dry state enforce itsdry laws against its wet neighbors seems

laughable, when they declare in the samebreath that the Federal Government with allits power as the richest nation on earth, witharmy, navy, marines, and coast guard, cannot enforce the Eighteenth Amendment,therefore it must be repealed to save thecountry from ruin ; and that each state mustenforce its own liquor laws aided by this-same impotent Federal Government!As recently disclosed to the Senate Lobby

Committee, a handful of wealthy wets�seven in number�furnished the first twomonths of this year 70 per cent of the moneygiven the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment, and "That 90 per cent ofall funds" (with which they are abundantly supplied) "come from 53 wealthy men."

Some persons are wet hoping thereby tosecure political or financial advantages forthemselves, others because they want to indulge in liquor drinking, and a very, veryfew gnash their teeth in rage declaring theywill never allow any one�not even the Government itself�to dictate what they shall eator drink! This type reminds one of the five-year-old who declares "You just wait until Igrow up and I will eat all the candy, icecream and cake I want, and no one shallstop me." Psychologists tell us that "in infancy, before the mind is built up there is awish for complete uncontrol" concerning "allthe things dearly loved by the child," andthat this type of wets "have reverted to theinfantile." Not a very flattering comment onthe behavior of a grown man or woman.There are a few elderly people who believethat alcoholic liquor is a stimulant and therefore needed by them occasionally, so they resent the red-tape and increased price necessary in buying it. That science has provedthat alcohol is a "narcotic poison," and "as atonic or a stimulant has no scientific value,"does not convince them.Are the Christian people of our country

going to fold their hands and allow a portionof the Constitution to be nullified, or illegallytorn from that much prized document because a handful of selfish people who want toindulge themselves in liquor drinking arebound and determined that it shall be done?The wets are grooming one wet senatorial

candidate for the fight with what is called asure pathway to the White House. What isyour reply to this?

Up! Your country calls you to help defend its Constitution! Right will triumphover rum, if every man, and every womandoes his duty to God and Country preparatory to, and at, the coming elections !

Methodism and the Revival.J. Frank Armstrong.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOQOOOOOOOOOOOPART I.

; ETHODISM was a revival beforeit was a church. It arose out ofa deplorable condition in theChurch of England. It was notan incident. It was the mostmomentous religious event of

the eighteenth century. Neither was it an

accident. It was a necessity, and as inevitable as the tides. It had to come The appalling indifference to spiritual values could notcontinue indefinitely. Men could not go on

magnifying the forms of Godliness while

openly denying its power. In the realm ofthe Spirit no less than in the realm of the

physical, fluctuations have marked all progress. Science declares that there is no suchthing as a fixed dead level anywhere in theuniverse. Spiritual declension has alwaysbeen followed by a great religious awakeningas summer has invariably followed upon theheels of winter.And so the fire that had begun on the day

of Pentecost after leaping across the yearsin a mighty conflagration, had been allowedto die out of the hearts of men. This firemust be rekindled. Christianity must bearoused from her paralyzing lethargy. Sheis again called upon to put on the Garmentsof Righteousness. She must once more divorce herself from the world and fearlesslyidentify herself with God and his Son Christ.But who can qualify as leaders in such a

movement? Where can be found men who

are suflftcient for .such a task? Men with

enough vision to see what is in the mind ofthe Eternal? Men with enough intelligenceto grasp the significance of the plan? Menwith enough daring to initiate it? Men with

enough courage to continue in the face of re

lentless and overwhelming opposition ? Men

who forgetting all else will be willing to car

ry this torch of revival Truth over land andsea till at last they fall in their tracks?Well, be it remembered that we have a re

sourceful and far-seeing God who has al

ways found men when they were most needed and has often found them where the

world would least expect them. To beginthis greatest Revival since Pentecost the un

erring Father goes to one of the world's

leading universities, selects from its student

body a handful of willing, sober hearts andthe awakening that came to England throughthese young men was like the awaken

ing that comes to the slumbering sea

when shaken by a mighty tempest! A

new ideal is born. A new purpose steps forthto challenge that, and all succeeding generations. A new hope and a new life burst outof the morning of this new day. And fromthat moment of unnoticed beginning to the

present day of high and glorious achievement the word Revival has been Methodism's

Icey-word. Around this word has revolvedall her major activities. Her growth has been

measured by her times of spiritual refreshing. Her goings across all the fieeting years,

over dangerous seas and forbidding conti-

SOME ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF THEEIGHTEENTH AMENDMENT.

The Eighteenth Amendment has set up a

standard for the nation.It has challenged the thoughtful considera

tion, by the American people, of the beveragealcohol problem, as they have not been chal

lenged by any other great social problem sincethat of domestic slavery.It has pioneered a new realm of social leg

islation, which is bound to be more and more

in evidence in connection with other welfare

problems in the years to come.

It has established a principle of human lib

erty and real freedom which belongs in theclass with slave emancipation and popular government.It has mitigated, more than can ever be re

counted, the serious social consequences thatwould undoubtedly have followed the WorldWar but for that Amendment and the laws en

acted pursuant thereto.It has taken from the nefarious beverage al

cohol traffic the sanction of government andthe protection of law.It has through the operation of the law of

supply and demand eliminated the saloon.It has put an end to beer, whiskey and wine

advertisements on the bill-boards, in the magazines and in the daily press.It has torn the mask of respectability from

the vintner, the brewer, the distiller, the wholesaler, and the retailer of intoxicating liquors,and has placed all such in the criminal class.It has made possible a fairer distribution of

the weekly pay checks among the wives andchildren of millions of families.It alone of all systems ever tried in the na

tion has checked the growth of the liquortraffic in our great cities.It has contributed incalculably to the elimi

nation of licensed commercial vice as a source

of government revenue.It has made the "Old Soak" almost an ex

tinct species.It has made it possible for a new generation

to grow into citizenship, recognizing the bev

erage alcohol traffic as an institution under theban of law rather than one with the government's stamp of approval upon it.It has tended to reveal rather than to create

lawless tendencies in certain classes of our

population.It has made the streets and highways safer

than they would otherwise have been for men,women and children.It has made even the speakeasy and blind

tiger far less harmful than the old brothel anddive which used those names in the old daysfor purposes of respectability.It has brought the standard of efficiency

and safety promotion in government up to thestandard of the American railroad with itsRule "G" and of multiplied thousands of

highly mechanized and electrified industrial

plants with similar rules.It has made the beverage alcohol traffic,

which only yesterday was king in our economic,social and political life, a criminal�a fugitivefrom justice with a price upon its head�an

outlaw�a hunted thing.It has made hundreds of thousands of better

homes, millions of more contented wives andmothers, and many more millions of happierlittle children.�Ernest H. Cherrington, TheAmerican Issue.

nents have been marked by her Revival fires.She has been known of all nations as theRevival church! Take out of the book ofMethodism's history the story of her revivals and there would be left nothing out ofwhich to build a history. Every dynamicstroke of Missionary enterprise and effort,every brilliant forth-flaming educational program, every humanity-lifting social servicework she has undertaken, every loving hospitalization enterprise she has projected, herwork in clothing, feeding and educatinghomeless children�in fact all her work ofany nature whatsoever has had its humblebeginning in her Revival heart !But what of the future? There be many

who say that times have changed and we

have reached a point in our ongoing, or weare at least approaching a point where we

can dispense with the Revival as an institution of Methodism. They say this form ofevangelizing has had its day�and they admit it to have been a magnificent and un

matched day in all the annals of time, but itis gone and we must look otherwhere forsome agency that will do the work that it hasdone so well. There are others who believethat the essence of the Revival as the worldhas known it through Methodism must beretained. These insist that evangelism in

some form of Revival effort is not only anidea and a result that runs like a thread ofgold through the whole life of Methodism butit may be traced right on back to the timewhen sin entered our world. These men donot believe that the Revival is dead or thatevangelism has grown obsolete. They believe that it cannot die as long as sin is leftin the world ! They believe that as long asthere remains an aching void in one troubledbreast ; as long as there is to be heard anywhere the wail of sin-caused suffering anddeath; as long as there is a heaven for thefaithful, as long as there is a hell for incorrigible sinners ; as long as there is a God whocares; as long as there is a living, loving,longing Christ waiting to receive sinful men,so long will it be necessary for Methodism tolift her stentorian voice and cry exultantly toevery child of Adam, "Behold the Lamb ofGod that taketh away the sin of the world" !This is the ageless, saving Gospel that Methodism must proclaim everywhere. This isthe evangelism that is deathless till he iscrowned King and Redeemer by all nations.This is the Revival for which there is no

substitute !

Tarry Ye !Here is a most interesting volume edited

by Rev. L. R. Akers, President of AsburyCollege. He has published this book at thistime for a part of the pentecostal literature,which is now having a wide reading.

GLEANINGS FROM THE EVANGELISTIC FIELDHONG KONG, CHINA.

Dear Friends of The Herald Family:We were awakened yesterday morning by a

barrage of rapid explosions. The newspapers havebeen publishing many accounts of bandits and fighting in south China. Our first thought was that hostilities had broken out and we were under fire.Brother Fred Briggs, of the Oriental Missionary Society said, "The devil surely is getting it this morn

ing." He then explained that the first and fifteenthof each month were special worship days and thatour Chinese neighbors were shooting fire-crackers inorder to drive devils from their homes. Some one

suggested that we should have a most victoriousSabbath for judging from the amount of racket thedevil must be in full flight.For the past three days we have been the guests

of the Peniel Mission in Kowloon, just across thestrait from Hong Kong. This notable holiness mission was established by Brother and Sister A. K.Reiton in November of 1914. During the fifteen anda half years of its history unknown thousands havesought God at its altars. Eight hundred have beenexamined over a period of six months as to theirChristian faith and practice, and have been baptized after giving evidence of a change of heart andlife. The work now maintains five missions. It employs twelve missionaries as well as twenty nativeworkers. In their week's program they conducttwenty-one religious services besides Bible schoolwork and personal visitation. Reports have come tous that almost no service is barren of altar results.We met a most interesting character in the per

son of one of the mission's native preachers. Brother Ho-Chun-Tak. He was formerly a boatman ofthe lowest class, an outcast, a thief, and for twentyyears an opium smoker. One night he was wonderfully saved in the Peniel Mission. God instantly delivered him from the drug and he soon gave hisentire time to Christian service. Through his ear

nest ministry more than three hundred have beenestablished in Christ. Over twenty percent of hisincome (five or six dollars per month) is given toGod as tithes and offerings. Someone has askedthe question, "Do missions pay?" Surely we find a

convincing answer in the case of Ho-Chun-Tak.As in Japan and Korea we find China most recep

tive of the Gospel. The mission halls have beenfilled, the congregations have listened with interest,and the altar services have been scenes of abundantharvest. Our own souls have been refreshed andblessed as a result of mingling our faith with thatof the native Christians, and we have rejoiced to

gether under gracious manifestations of the HolyGhost.As we labor in China we remember with gratitude

the happy seasons of revival and spiritual upliftspent in the homeland last summer. We praise Godthat many of you who promised to pray for us thenhave not failed. We believe that your faith hasin a great measure been responsible for the physical and spiritual prosperity which we have enjoyed.Keep on praying. Our plans call for a full programof meetings throughout the intensely hot months ofthe summer and we must depend upon God for graceand strength to carry on.

Tomorrow our party is to move to Macau wherewe are engaged for a day's services with Rev. John

Galloway of the Southern Baptist Church. Fromthere we go to Canton for five days' convention withthe South China Mission of the Oriental MissionarySociety.Our foreign address continues to be 25 Takezoe,

KEYES, OKLAHOMA.Rev. T. F. Maitland, evangelist of Winfield, Kan.,

conducted a very successful revival meeting for Rev.C. B. Dickerman at the Marella Methodist Episcopal Church of the Keyes Circuit, near Keyes, Okla.The attendance was exceptional from the very be

ginning, and increased throughout the meeting. 1 he

last night the church was packed to the limit, there

being about 175 people present. _

The Spirit of the Lord was present in mighty con

viction. About thirty-three seekers found their wayforward to an altar of prayer. The church members

were revived, a number of them being reclaimed or

sanctified. Several others were converted._

Ihe

church truly thanks God for the way m which he

has poured out his Spirit upon it.C. B. Dickerman.

FRUITFUL%?EETINGS.We- have recently conducted some very fine meet

ings, one at Cedar, Iowa, a most excellent meeting;Ottumwa, Iowa, with Dr. A. S. Heath, Mam Street

Methodist Church. Great crowds, wonderful interest and scores were blessed in a definite way and

united with the Church. Dr. Heath has been its

pastor thirteen years and has added hundreds to

the church, and is one of the greatest pastors we

have ever helped. From there we went to Grace

M. E. Church, Springfield, Mo., with Dr. Frank Nett.

He has a wonderful church and is a great pastor.This was our second meeting with this good man.

The second week we were stricken with what the

doctors termed appendicitis and was in the hospital over a week; it cut our meeting short m Springfield although much good was done and we closed up

the last Sunday with great services.

J. V. Reid, of Ft. Worth, Texas, was with us inthese meetings and did wonderful work with theyoung people and in the music. You can't beat him.Our next meeting was at Thomas, S. D., and wasone of the best meetings I have been in this year forthe size of the place. The meeting reached all classesof people; many mature people were blessed andscores of young people were converted and unitedwith the Church. Rev. Geo. Rhoads, the pastor, isa fine man and popular with his people.We expect to be in Oklahoma and Texas for July

and part of August. I may be addressed at 109 E.Madison St., Oklahoma City, Okla., during themonths of July and August, or 1127 Richmond Rd.,Lexington, Ky. J. B. Kendall.

NEW ALBANY DISTRICT PREACHERS'PICNIC.

On Tuesday, June 24th, the preachers of the NewAlbany District of the Methodist Church with theirfamilies, packed their baskets and headed their ma

chines toward the beautiful picnic grounds locatedon Blue River about six miles below Corydon, Ind.,in Harrison county. From every part of the District the preachers came and before noon practicallyevery charge in the entire district was represented.Volley ball, croquet, swimming, horse shoes, base

ball and other games filled the day. At noon a dinner which loaded the long tables to capacity was

spread. Many a chicken was sacrificed to make thispart of the program a complete success. Two largefreezers of cream also contributed their part. Theday was so thoroughly enjoyed that no one seem

ingly wanted to start for home.From the expressions heard during the day it

seems that this beautiful spot will become the permanent meeting place of the District for all theiroutings if this meets with the approval of the kindpeople of Corydon who so generously donated theuse of the grounds, the buildings and the boats. Theentire district takes this opportunity of expressingto them their gratitude and appreciation.Dr. J.. Ed. Murr, our District Supt. and his family

were present for the day. This is the last districtmeeting they will be privileged to be with us as histerm of office expires this September. They havegreatly endeared themselves to all and from the en

tire District, both laymen and preachers express re

gret at their leaving. They have maintained a highspiritual standard in this District during the last sixyears, shown a kindly sympathetic spirit and thework of the District is in splendid shape. Theirmany friends are praying that the future holdbright things in store for them. The latch string ofthe Old New Albany District is ever out for them.Two charges in this District report over 100 conver

sions, reclaimed and sanctified so far this year. Sixothers report over 50. Not a charge but what reports some. R. A. Ulrey.

battles, but we praise God that for every trial therewas supplied from the eternal storehouse sufficientgrace, and in every battle there was always preciousblood-bought victory won through prayer and faith.We give God the praise and glory for the marvelous way he has undertaken for us ever since the_ inception of this work, five years ago. Our originaldebt of $25,000 has been entirely paid. Truly the

promise, "My God shall supply all your needs ac

cording to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus," hasbeen verified in our experience. While we praiseGod for the material blessings and for every kindfriend who has by prayers and gifts supported thiswork, our hearts go out to him in gratitude most forthe spiritual blessings.This work was founded on Holy Ghost lines and

throughout its short existence we have alwayssought to learn the mind of the Spirit and to followhis leadings in all things. Thus we have been blessedby his presence. In our revivals both in the out-stations and in the school at Mt. Carmel, the HolySpirit has made his presence mightily . felt and hehas carried on his office work in the convicting, saving, and sanctifying many precious mountain people.It is for this that we continually praise God. Ourremuneration lies not in what little salary we re

ceive, but in seeing the Shekinah glory of God rest

ing on the faces of many of the people to whom Godhas sent us to minister.Our school closed May 23, with rnost gracious

commencement exercises. On May 18, the baccalaureate sermon was delivered by Dr. H. E. Rosen-

berger, of Asbury College. There were twelve youngpeople who were given certificates of graduationfrom the eighth grade. At the close of the highschool graduation exercises, four students were given their diplomas. Prof. G. B. Burkholder, of Wil-

more, Ky., gave the commencement address. Ofthese four graduates each one was honored of Godwith a call. One of them, a young man, has not yetconsented to answer his call. We are praying thathe will yet be saved and do the bidding of the Lord.He once had a good Christian experience. Many ofthe under classmen in the high school and even some

in the grade department have calls on their hearts

and lives to be missionaries and preachers of the

gospel.This summer we have the largest number of

workers that we have had hitherto. There are

thirty-seven workers in the various sections of themountains who are keeping twenty-four stations going. This includes the all-year stations also. Wethank God for this increase over last year. Theseworkers are from Asbury College, Taylor University, C. E. I., C. B. L, and Fort Wayne Bible School.So many people ask for workers to come and holdSunday school and church in their community andeach year we are forced to say we have no one tosend. We have four places, now with no one to fillthem. Pray that this might be a great summer inspreading scriptural holiness throughout this sectionof the country, and that many souls will be won toChrist. Many of our saved and sanctified boys andgirls are helping in these stations and are proving a

real blessing in every place. It is true that theseprecious young people with their hearts made pureby the Holy Ghost can, by their prayers and testimonies, do more toward winning their own peoplethan can any one coming in from the outside. Weclose the summer with our Sixth Annual HolinessCamp Meeting August 22-31.For some time we have been planning on a Bible

Training School where our graduates and otherswho have a call to Christian work, may receive theBible training that will equip them to go out as mes

sengers and preachers to their own people. Wehope to open this Bible Training School in Jackson,Ky., the county seat of Breathitt Co., in September,1931. Will you who read this please pray that thisshall come to pass ?

So many boys and girls are begging to come toour school at Mt. Carmel, but because of our limiteddormitory and classroom space we can only accommodate sixty-five, and are forced to turn manyaway. We are praying that God will raise up forus some one who might make possible the erectionof another building on our campus here this sum

mer, so that we can take care of all who want tocome. Mr. H. C. Miller, of Erie, Pa., has graciouslyconsented to draw up the plans for the building andwe are trusting that God will make it possible tohave this new building ready by this fall. Will youplease, dear reader, pray that these two buildingneeds shall be realized.Pray for God to help us reach these twenty-two

mountain counties of Eastern Kentucky with thefull gospel. There are scores of creeks where thepeople have no opportunity to attend church or

Sunday school. In this interdenominational workof faith our needs are many. Pray for God to raiseup friends who will pray and give.

GREETINGS FROM THE SUNNY SOUTHLAND.We are glad to report at this writing that Jesus

still is able to save, sanctify, and keep. Also we are

thoroughly convinced that the day of revivals hasnot passed. We have just closed a gracious revivalin Edinburg, Miss., where God wonderfully manifested his power. We met with difficulty in getting our

meeting organized and started and matters were

very discouraging the first few days, however, Godwas surely with us and we found "All thingsworking together for good." It was only a veryshort time until the people began to take an interest and in spite of the mosquitoes and the busy season for the farmers of this section the crowds were

very good until the close of the meeting. We weresomewhat handicapped throughout the entire meeting due to the lack of a piano and other necessaryequipment, nevertheless God gave us a good meeting.God gave us liberty in preaching and increased our

burden for lost souls in this place. Realizing thatthe only way to have victory in any revival was

through prayer we took our burdens and situationsto our Heavenly Father and he never failed us. Godbegan to deeply convict people of sin and people began to get saved in their seats during the service,then the break came. One night during the lastweek of the meeting conviction became so intensethat ten people, mostly young people, came to thealtar and all prayed through in a gracious manner.We had some old-fashioned shouting to spice matters up a bit, all of which came from those at thealtar as new-born souls received peace and joy intheir hearts. During the entire meeting, so far aswe could tell, eighteen souls received a definite blessing.We owe a word of sincere thanks to the good peo

ple of -Edinburg for the kind way they entertainedus. God always takes care of his own and we praisehim for the victory we have had. Pray for our labors in this section that God might continue to giveus souls.Brother Willard Bell, who assisted us in the mu

sic, was a very faithful worker and a man with a

passion for lost souls.Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur H. Fry.

more to proliibition than a thousand preachers who are timid, hesitant; many of them

say nothing against our business, and othersare so easy about it that they in no way interfere with our work; but their hesitantmanners and little speeches make them ludicrous. They are a real help to us.

Now I want to tell you something strictlyon the quiet. This is for our family only.This must not get out of the circle who are

opposing prohibition and standing firmly forthe liquor traffic, and who intend to put themselves solidly into the war to get back thesaloons on the first floor, and the bawdyhouse on the second floor. That's what wewant. That's as near hell on earth as any

thing we can possibly get, and we must nev

er stop until we get that back to running fulland free under the protection of law. But

here's our secret, and mark you, now, thisis to be kept in our crowd.O'f all things I hate it's this Holiness Move

ment. These sanctified preachers talk withan earnestness, a directness and a zeal that's

very hurtful to our cause every way. All the

people converted and sanctified under their

ministry become aggressive for prohibition.The people of this entire movement talk and

pray and vote prohibition. If it should

spread over these United States we wouldn'thave a wet in the Senate or Congress, and,bless you, they would refuse to take the wet

daily papers and our business would be practically ruined. We must, in every way, op

pose the revival of the Wesleyan doctrine

and experience of sanctification. To carry

on this work we must transform ourselvesand work through the ecclesiastics. It's for

tunate that we have some servants in the

ministry who will put the brakes on this ho

liness revival and do all within their powerto prevent its spread among the people.Let it be remembered that the real relig

ion of Jesus Christ means the destruction of

the liquor traflic and drunkenness. We must

oppose this with all of our power. If a devil

can be grateful, I am profoundly grateful tosome prominent preachers who are denyingthe inspiration of the Scriptures, the virgin

birth of Christ, the atonement which he

made on the cross. Their service to us is

invaluable.There's another group of preachers who

are bitterly opposing revivals of religion.

They are a great help to us. A hundred greatrevivals of religion properly scattered aboutin New Jersey, would have meant a dry Senator from that state; but these anti-revivalpreachers ought to draw their salaries fromthe kingdom of darkness. They are worthmore to us and our work of destruction,than any language I can use can describe.We must stand faithfully by them and see

that our servants flatter and praise them inthe course they are taking, and the entertainments, plays and pastimes they are bringinginto the church, rather than real revivals ofreligion.If we can shut off revivals for a generation

we can eliminate the Eighteenth Amendmentto the Constitution ; we can bring back thesaloon, with all of its lawless wreck and ruinof humanity, and we can once more pourdown into the pits of torment countless millions of human souls. You mark my word, a

great revival of the old-time religion wouldestablish prohibition, bring untold blessingto humanity and drive bootleggers out of existence.The work of great revivals is almost en

tirely in the hands of the humbler preachers.The big fellows, with their rich, worldlychurches, are not going to have revivals, andif we can use them to influence and intimidate the humbler class of preachers our victory is won.

I have much else to say to you, but this letter has become rather lengthy but you willhear from me again in the not distant future.Yours for the liquor traffic, for the de

struction of human souls, for the breakingup of homes, for murder t.nd crime of everysort. Your Father,

Satan.

FACING SUNRISE.oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

HEN I arrived in Wilmore a fewdays ago I learned, late in theevening, that Rev. John Hugheswas in very poor health ; in fact,it looked as if he might be calledaway very soon. I went to his

house as soon as possible, but found it closedand the windows dark, and fearing I mightdisturb his rest I went away but returnedearly the next morning. I found him veryfeeble, but in great peace and almost eager toget away and be at the feet of his belovedSaviour and Lord.We spent a great hour together. I will

carry the memory of it through life. Brother Hughes is facing toward the eternal sunrise, rather than sunset. He has had deepconvictions from the time he received the re

generating grace of God. He felt the deepneed and sought the sanctifying power of theHoly Spirit, and from that day has not failedto bear witness. Brother Hughes has never

claimed that he was a faultless man. He isready, with the rest of us, to admit mistakesand blunders, but all the time the needle ofhis spirit has pointed straight to the pole offull redemption from sin in the Lord JesusChrist.We are members of the Kentucky Confer

ence ; forty years ago we located, he to foundAsbury College, and I to enlarge and build upThe PENTECOSTAL Herald, which I had beenpublishing for two years as a monthly. Welittle dreamed how these institutions wouldgrow and be blessed of God in the salvationof souls.We are profoundly grateful that it has

been our privilege to suffer some reproachfor our blessed Lord, but it has been too littleto mention. Our souls and labors have beenblessed. We deserve nothing. We give allpraise to the God who has loved us, theChrist who has redeemed us, the Holy Spiritwho has guided and helped us. Bro. Hughesis a few years older than myself, about 77years of age. He hung over my sick bed

when I was on the borderland and beggedme to stay a while longer, if possible. Nowit looks as if he might get home ahead of me;if he should, I shall feel lonely. Many timeswe have not seen things alike, but all thewhile our hearts have beat in happy unionwith one great desire to spread the gospel offull salvation throughout the nation andaround the world.Brother Hughes is a very intense man, a

man of deep conviction and positive expression, but I do not believe he has ever had a

single taint of fanaticism. He has been Wesleyan, he has had a firm Bible foundation forhis faith and message. His beliefs and teaching have been in harmony with those God-chosen men who kindled the revival firesthat brought the Methodist Church into ex

istence, redeemed and sent shouting home toheaven millions of souls cleansed in the precious blood of Christ.There is no human way to estimate the

gracious results that have cojne out of thefaith, zeal and fruitful labors of BrotherHughes. It took real consecration and faithto start a holiness school when he foundedAsbury College at Wilmore. There was hardwork and self-sacrifice m these beginningsthat are easily forgotten by those who car

ried nothing of the burden. It was BrotherHughes who insisted on planting Central Holiness camp meeting at Wilmore, and the re

sults have proven his wisdom. No one canestimate the powerful influence this camphas had in the salvation of sinners and thesanctification of believers.It was Brother Hughes who planted Kings-

wood College, organized and established a holiness camp meeting at that place. Theschool is now the property of the PilgrimChurch, and ha^ proven a great success.That camp meeting is one of the great soul-winning centers. He is not claiming anypraise for these works, but the Lord graciously used him in their beginnings. Hehas been a man of daring adventure. He hashad positive beliefs and has not been afraidto speak his convictions or hesitated to use

his influence to put these same convictionsinto action bringing gracious results.Let THE Herald family pray that if it

please God, Brother Hughes tarry with us awhile longer. If not, that his body may berelieved of pain and that his last days may bewonderfully filled with peace and praise, andhis passage an eternal sunrise into an endless day in the presence of our blessed Saviour and Lord.

Some Real Sacrifice.I received a letter today from a minister

who was graciously blessed under my ministry of full salvation a good many years ago,who is now in charge of a small church,stands out clearly for the Bible doctrine ofentire sanctification, as taught by Mr. Wesley, and which brought the Methodist Churchinto existence, and was the distinctive doctrine of Methodism for many years. Thisman has a wife and two children, and hissalary is so small that it is with the veryclosest economy that they can secure the barenecessities of life.I thank God that there are men in the

world who love the truths of the gospel thatsave the souls of men above everything else,and that they are willing to suffer forChrist's sake. There is nothing finer than a

humble, obscure man who has placed his allupon the altar and without complaint, froma pure heart, preaches the gospel of a full redemption in Jesus, brushes up, cleans, patches and presses an old suit in order to look asdecent as possible, and goes on, rejoicing inthe fulness of the love of our blessed Lordwho has saved him from all sin. There area number of such men in this old world ofours. They are not seeking office, or money,or place, but they are seeking to bring toChrist the lost souls of their fellowteings.No doubt they vdll shine brightly in thatgreat day when we shall all stand before the


judgment seat of Christ. May God bless andcomfort them, and give them great victory insoul winning. In the midst of their trialsand poverty, they have a communion and fellowship with our blessed Lord who walkedthe earth without where to lay his head,which is beyond all price.Many men are seeking many things, long

ing for office, for larger appointments, betterpay, more notices in the newspapers, andthings too numerous to mention, but who ofus are seeking to enter into the fellowship ofChrist's sufferings! Nothing could occur

that would count more largely for the purityof the church, the salvation of the lost, thepeace and prosperity of the nation, and theevangelization of the world, than that all ofus ministers of the gospel were really willingto consecrate entirely and unselfishly, suffer,if need be, to preach and spread the gospelof full redemption from sin in the preciousblood of Christ, regardless of opposition, ridicule, persecution, poverty, and whatevermight come, if only we be free in Christ,filled with the Holy Ghost, and see multitudesof our fellowbeings coming home to theblessed Master.In these new churches which are springing

up and standing firmly for full redemptionfrom sin, for a whole Bible, rejoicing in themidst of ridicule and sneers, there are manymen who know what it is to be poor, to use

the greatest care, who live on cheap food andwear old suits cleaned and pressed until theyfairly glitter in the sunshine, whose heartsare on fire, and who know the unspeakableglory of salvation from all sin and blessedcommunion with the Holy Spirit. God blessthem! There is a great day avvaiting themwhen the battle is over, and the gates ofParadise swing wide and they are welcomedby their blessed Lord, and the souls that theyhave brought through their ministry to thefountain which cleanseth from all sin. Befaithful, brethren. Suffer, economize; becontent to be poor in this world, but rich infaith and mighty men for God until the battle is over, and then oh, then, an eternity ofblessedness and praise about the Master'sfeet. H. C. Morrison.

A Great Religious Journal.Before my long and serious illness I was so

pressed with my evangelistic work, travelingfrom place to place, writing for this paperand looking after the interests of AsburySeminary that I had very little time to readthe church papers. For the past months Ihave had time to become somewhat acquainted with the papers, as they were forwardedto me from our office.I will say, first of all, that I am sorry for

any family that does not have a good religious journal coming into their home.Among the many exchanges that come to

our office is the Western Recorder, publishedin Louisville, Ky., the able editor being Rev.Victor L Masters, D. D. This is a Baptistweekly and has a very able staff of contributors. While nothing of an offensive, sectarian spirit appears in its columns it is, as itshould be, a faithful exponent of Baptist doctrines, ideals and fellowship. A denominational paper should, by all means, representthe people who support it. I am quite sure ifsome of our Methodist weeklies were a bitmore Methodist they would have a more liberal support and accomplish far more good.A denominational paper should interpret,

inculcate and weave into the minds andhearts of the people the Bible doctrines uponwhich the church it represents is supposed tolay special emphasis. It should give a reasonfor the existence of its denomination amongmen, the just claims upon them, and for theconsideration of the message it bears to humanity.The Western Recorder is just such a

church paper. Dr. Masters and his contributors believe something very definitely andgive out no uncertain sound. They speak and*rite as men in authority. They are fearless

defenders of the faith that lays hold of JesusChrist for salvation. There is scarcely a weekthat the editor of The Western Recorder doesnot write in defense of the fundamentaltruths of Christianity. He stands with intelligent fearlessness for a divinely-inspired Bible, the virgin born, crucified risen Christ,mighty to save all who come to him by faith.

One reason why the Baptist Church ismaking such remarkable progress in Kentucky and the southern states, arises fromthe fact that their editors and preachers havea definite, positive message. The pen of theeditor of The Western Recorder is making a

valuable contribution to our common Christian faith in these days of widespread unbelief and wickedness that skepticism fosters.His readers are to be congratulated.

No Revival Until we Repent.Mrs. H. C. Morrison.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGiOOOOOOOOOOOOO

i^^wl^ N a recent sermon preached byt4h^X^ Rev. Harold Paul Sloan at

f^^^^^^ Ocean Grove, N. J., he spoke as

a prophet of the Lord when heMu^^-^l^ declared "that the heart of the

Christian church, especially theMethodist Church, be opened to the claims ofthe Holy Spirit. He deplored the fact thatthe church has lost 50,000 instead of gaininghundreds of thousands the past year. What'sthe matter? The matter is, we have sinned.We preachers have sinned. We've allowedthe schools to take away from us the Lord ofGlory. We've allowed them to take the Sonof God, and so the ministry has been powerless. You in the pews have sinned. You'veforgotten the prayer meeting. You've neglected religious reading. , There will be no

revival of Pentecost until the people repent."The factjs, we have been "celebrating"

Pentecost with words, fine music, and formsand- ceremonies, instead or prayer, confession of our shortcomings and backslidingsand a drawing nigh to God. Where have we

heard of the pentecostal power having fallenupon a church because they tarried in prayer and humble waiting before the Lord ! Andyet, we were supposed to commemorate Pentecost by seeking for the fire that fell uponthat memorable day, and which sat uponeach of the heads of the 120 as they waited inexpectancy of the promised power.Pentecost anniversary has come and gone,

leaving only a memory, without any real visible results of its commemoration. We havetalked, read, prayed, after a fashion, buthave stopped short of actualizing the verything for which we should have prayed, humbled ourselves and expected. The Churchhas not realized any new power because ofthis anniversary celebration, but we trustthere has come before the people the factthat there is such an experience for theChurch, and that humble souls who are will

ing to pay the price of a complete consecra

tion, an absolute abandonment of one's selfto the whole will of God, may believe and en

ter into the experience.No, we shall have to repent of our luke-

warmness, our laxness in church duties, ourprayerlessness, our worldliness, our "following the Lord afar oflf," and shut ourselves insome "upper room" of prayer, and wait until

the pentecostal fire shall fall and all our drossconsume. We need not expect, nor do we desire, the incoming of the Holy Spirit, if we

are walking hand-in-hand with the world,indulging in its frivolities, pleasures, andfrolics just as do those Avho make no profession of being a follower of the Lord.The way to heaven and God is a narrow

way, so narrow that no sin can enter, yet sowide that all who will, may find plenty ofroom in which to journey to the Eternal City.

"Spirit Divine, attend our prayer,And make our hearts thy home ;

Descend with all thy gracious power ;Come, Holy Spirit, come!

"Come as the light : to us revealOur sinfulness and woe ;

And lead us in those paths of lifeWhere all the righteous go.

"Come as the fire, and purge our hearts,Like sacrificial flame ;

Let our whole soul an offering beTo our Redeemer's name.

"Come as the wind, with rushing sound,With pentecostal grace ;

And make the great salvation knownWide as the human race.

"Come as the dove, and spread thy wings,The wings of peace and love ;

And let thy c'hurch on earth becomeBlest as thy church above."

A Good Evangelist.You want a devout, earnest soul winner to

come and help you in a revival meeting. Myfriend. Rev. F. E. Moseley, of Wilmore, Ky.,is a zealous soul winner. He will be gladto assist you in your city, village or countrychurch. Don't let souls be lost without anearnest effort. While committees are busypreparing to fix, to get ready, to make ar

rangements to see if they cannot find a planto put on a campagn to awaken the church,to give a banquet for a discussion 'on the needof a revival, jump in and get this good brother to help you in a protracted meeting. WeMethodist preachers know how to hold a re

vival. Let's get busy ; announce the meeting.Visit from house to house, pray in the homesof the people, get happy, shout, shake hands,invite them to come out to the service. Preachabout sin and death and judgment day, andheaven and hell. If the altar is not longenough to hold them, put in a few chairs.Quote scripture to them, pray with them,point them to Christ and all the powers ofevil on earth and in perdition can't keep us

from having a revival. Of course, we canhave a revival. Send for Brother Moseley,Wilmore, Ky., to come and help you. 'Keepthe evangelists busy.

vival work. He has an open date of twoweeks beginning August 24. Any one desiring his services for that time, address himMurphy, N. C, at once. He will render excellent service. H. C. Morrison.

Realizing the great need of a divinely-called, educated, Spirit-filled ministry to proclaim a full salvation, I hereby pledge myself to give to Asbury Theological Seminarythe sum of , each year for five years, money payable September 1.

"SPRING JOYS."

By Beatrice Curl.One of the speakers was a stranger

in the country; we were sure of thatbecause her companion had askedwhat characteristic of the countryimpressed her the most. "The waypeople look forward to the changingseasons; the way you welcome yourspring, that is something we who livein the tropics miss."In the tropics where they have sun

shine the entire year and the city advertises it as a place where the sun

always shines. Where there is alwaysgreen grass, greener at times thanothers, no doubt, but always green.The flowers are always blooming, thesame flowers, the same green trees

day after day. Where the shrubs andflowers grow so fast that everyspring or autumn they must be cutback and the flowers transplanted toinsure bloom.They who live under those condi

tions do not know just how wonderful it is to see the first green bladepeering through the brown earth,then the green leaves and the gayblossoms.How we all love and welcome them.

Only those who have seen the greattrees standing stark naked againstthe blue sky know the blessing that

spring; brings with it. The joy of going to' the woods to hunt for the firstflowers in spring. To feel the warm

sunshine on our faces as we passdown the street or country road re

minds us of the changing seasons andthe return of spring. Only those whohave been through the cold winter canappreciate the lovely spring. Thosewho have been through the dark daysof adversity know the blessing of the

' silver lining in the cloud. It is likethe return of spring to a bleak, coldworld. We all have our dull days andwe do not like them when they come.

If we did not have the winter daysWe would not enjoy the return ofspring, and the cloudy days are theonly ones that will compel us to appreciate God's glorious sunshine.

-�.�.�^Dear Aunt Bettie: May I have a

little chat with you? How I love little children and would love so much to

put my arms around them and drawthem close to my Savior's side. Iwas once full of pride. I wanted tobe popular and craved the friendshipof this world, and also, wanted to befamous. I gave my heart to Jesuswhen I was twelve years of age, but,oh! there was a fight on all the time,for I seemed to have two girls livingin my heart; one wanted to do right,but the other seemed to be the stronger, and was forever doing things thatkept the better self repenting, weeping and confessing. Still it was all todo over again. I spent many, manydays of sufl'ering, affliction, woundedpride and heartaches, but oh, praisehis Name, dear children, there is a

way of deliverance and I have foundit. I used to love to talk about myselfand I loved also, to be praised, butsomehow I now covet those things forJesus. I see how unworthy I am andhow worthy he is. That's why myarms ache to draw you to Jesus, without you having to suffer, as I did before being willing to let go and letGod. I wonder if we can start a new

game of guessing? That will pleaseJesus more than guessing names anddescribing ourselves. So I will giveyou a few examples. Now get yourBibles, for we want God's Word in it:Why was I not happy with pride rising up in my heart? (one answer is,Psa. 138:6 and -16:11). What doesJesus say about the friendship of theWorld ? Why do we seem to have twonatures? Is there deliverance? Bywhom?If you like this game, I will come

again, and tell you more of what Jesus has done for me. In the mean

time, you ask questions on the Bibleand answer as many of mine as youwish, quoting Scripture or tellingwhere it is found. And best of all, letus ask Jesus to reveal his Word to us,as we study. Ezelle Robertson.

REQUESTS FOR PRAYER.

M. B. S.: "Please pray for a dearbrother to be saved from the awfuldrink habit."

Mrs. A. B.: "Please to pray for methat, if it is God's will, I may be healed of cancer."

A Reader: "Pray earnestly thatthe Lord may heal my sister of a serious throat trouble, and that we mayhave a spiritual awakening in our

community."

A Sister: "Pray that God may giveme the witness to my sanctification,and that I may become established."

Mrs. M. L.: "Pray for my husbandwho has had a stroke, that he may berestored to his family, and that we

tnay grow in grace."

G. H.: "Pray that my mother maybe healed of bronchial trouble, andfor me that I may live a life of ser

vice."


THE OPPORTUNITY IS SWIFTLY PASSINGDon't let it go by without your having placed THE HERALD in some home. It

may be the means of salvation to the entire household.

Every soul, some time, somewhere, longs to know God, and this may be your opportunity to help some one into a saving knowledge of Him. We have known instances where persons were not approachable in the interest of their souls, but theHoly Spirit has spoken to them in the quiet of the reading hour.

We pass this way but once, so let's make our time and efforts count for God andsouls. Try to induce some one to subscribe on the special 50c offer till January. Invest 50c of the Lord's money and send the paper to some one ; then pray God to blessthe message THE HERALD carries to the goodof that soul.

Dear HERALD readers, what we do must be done quickly. The special subscription period is rapidly slipping away, souls are passing into eternity, many of them lost,and it behooves us to get desperately in earnest to offer the Bread of Life to as many aswill receive it.

Think NOW of some loved one or friend who needs soul food, and either askthem to subscribe or send them the paper until January. Seemingly small things countfor much in the service of the King.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSONREV. O. G. MINGLEDORFF, D.D.

Lesson V.�August 3, 1930...Subject.�Naomi and Ruth. Ruth1:6-10, 14-22.

Golden Text.�And hath made ofone blood all nations of men for to

dwell on all the face of the earth.�

Acts 17:26.Time.�About 1300 B. C.Places.�Bethlehem and Moab.Introduction.�^The Moabites had

nothing to boast of in their origin.While they were not descendants ofAbraham, they were related to himin that they were descended from his

nephew Lot; though it was far from

being an honorable kinship. Read the

story. As they multiplied into quitean extensive people, they conquered�the region east of the Dead Sea, and

. made it their homeland. At the timewhen Naomi and Ruth lived theMoabites had fgorsaken the worshipof Jehovah, and had gone into com

plete idolatry.To get the true setting of the book

of Ruth we must picture ourselvesthe family of Elimelech, consisting ofhis wife Naomi and their two sons

Mahlon and Chilion. They belongedto good Jewish stock. Their homewas at Bethlehem, or nearby that

village. They owned some land, as

was common with Jews in that day.But there came a mighty famine inthe land of Canaan, and bread was

very scarce. As there was no faminein the land of Moab, Elimelech went

there with his family; and sometimeafter he died, and Naomi was left a

widow with two boys in a strangeland. The sons having grown to man

hood married two Moabitish girls,Orpah and Ruth. Ten years aftertheir arrival in Moab both the youngmen died; and Orpah and Ruth were

left childless widows. Leave that

point for awhile.As the book is history instead of fic

tion, it is hardly proper to term either Naomi or Ruth its heroine; butwere we dealing with a novel, thatwould be interesting. Some would

give the title to Ruth, while othersclaim it for Naomi. I think it is a

close draw between the two. Decidefor yourself. But do not overlookthe fact that we are dealing with one

of the most exquisitely beautifulstories in all the world's literature.The book gives a fine illustration

of Jewish land tenure. A Jew mightmortgage his land in case he was

forced to raise money to meet his

necessities; but he did not therebylose his estate. In course of time hecould redeem it; or some near kinsman could redeem it for him; andwhen redemption money was tendered to the person holding the mort

gage deed the land had to go back to

its rightful owner. All this is clearlybrought out in the case of Boaz whoredeemed the lost property, and ac

cording to Jewish law, or custom,married Ruth, the widow of Mahlon.I think you will find this to be a typeof our ownership of this world. God

prepared this world for man; butman forfeited it to the Devil who

now holds over it a usurped authori

ty; but we are the rightful owners.

When the Lion of the tribe of Judahshall have completely conquered the

Devil, and driven him off the face ofthe earth, we shall receive our prop

erty back again. See Eph. 1:13 and

14. Also Rev. 5, and Rev. 21 and 22.

Comments on the Lesson6. Then she arose with her daugh

ters-in-law.�There is something fineabout this old mother-in-law. Although belonging to that exclusiveIsraelitish race, she had so conductedherself toward her daughters-in-lawthat she had completely won boththeir respect and their love. Thisverse shows plainly that they bothstarted to go with her back to hernative home, and, doubtless, wouldhave done so, had she not proposedthat they remain in their own coun

try. We find the occasion for Naomi'sreturn in the latter part of thisverse: "For she had heard in theland of Moab how that the LORD hadvisited his people in giving thembread." We who live in God-blessedAmerica can form little conception ofthe meaning of an Oriental famine;but the starving millions of India andChina understand the matter. Literally millions of them live out theirdays without ever eating what we

would call a full meal.7. Her two daughters-in-law with

her.�This verse confirms what Istated in the note on verse six, thatboth the daughters-in-law startedback with Naomi. She had the gripof a mother's love upon both of them.We hear many adverse jokes aboutmothers-in-law; but most of themare the salt of the earth. This writerhad one who was an angel incarnate.

8. Go, return each to her mother'shouse.�Naomi well knew the exclu-siveness of her own people, and theirunkind feelings towards the Moabitesand other heathen peoples; and shethought it would be best for herdaughters-in-law to remain amongtheir own people in Moab. She payshigh tribute to Orpah and Ruth whenshe speaks of their kindness to thedead and to herself. It is hardlyprobable that during the three thousand years that have elapsed sincethe days of Ruth and Nkomi the human race has furnished women of anyfiner sentiment than that of thesetwo characters. Naomi had the advantage in that she came out of thebest people then on the earth; butRuth springs like an angel of lightout of the midst of heathen night.

9. That ye may find rest.�In Oriental language that meant that theymight again find husbands. The following clause is a commentary:"Each of you in the house of her husband." They lifted up their voice,and wept.�Indicative of their deepaffection for Naomi. Separation was

heart-breaking to them all.10. Surely we will return with thee

unto thy people.�I am sorry thatNaomi interfered with their purpose.The sequel was so good for Ruth,that I am persuaded that it wouldhave been a great blessing to Orpah

' if she too had gone with them toBethlehem. Surely God would haverichly rewarded that poor heathen

woman, had she forsaken all and

joined herself forever to the chosen

people.14. Orpah kissed her mother-in-

law.�That was their last kiss, theirlast good-by, their last affectionateembrace. It meant a thousand timesmore than can be put on paper. ButRuth clave unto her.�What a chasm

opens between them. Orpah goesback to her people to be a heathen

again�goes back to the worship ofChemosh. The picture grows dark.But Ruth turns her face towardsBethlehem and her heart towards the

true God. Since that day the worldhas heard nothing more from Orpah;but it will take all of time and all of

eternity to write the story of Ruth.

The direction we give to our livesmeans everything for us for allworlds.

15. Return thou after thy sister-in-law.�Naomi could see no fartherinto the future than we can. She, nodoubt, thought she was giving Ruth

good advice; but it was bad advice.God had different plans for that

young woman; and the Divine Spiritwas helping her in her decision forthe better things.

16 and 17. These two verses can

not be separated, for they are one.

If Ruth had not absolutely given upheathenism before that hour, she

gave it up then. How intense are

her words. "Intreat me not to leavethee, or to return from following after thee." I have seen nothing of thesort superior to the following: "Forwhither thou goest, I will go; andwhere thou lodgest, I will lodge: thypeople shall be my people, and thyGod my God: where thou diest, will Idie, and there will I be buried: theLORD do so to me, and more also, ifought but death part thee and me."That statement is about as completeas it can be made. I have tried totake something from it, or to add

something to it, but have made a

failure. It lacks nothing, and has no

word to spare.18. When she saw that she was

steadfastly minded to go with her.�

Naomi was satisfied, and they twowent on together to the village ofBethlehem. That was a great day'swork for both of them, as the futureproved.

19. When they were come to Bethlehem, all the city was moved aboutthem.�Naomi had been gone tenyears. She went out with a husbandand two sons; but now she returnswith one lone broken-hearted daughter-in-law. There were no newspapers, no railroads�almost no means

of communication; and possibly littleor nothing had been heard of her andher family after they departed forMoab. Is this Naomi?�That soundshomelike. Some of the older peopleremembered her, and they remem

bered Elimelech land the two fineboys who went away with them.

20. Call me not Naomi, call me

Mara.�Naomi means my delight, mypleasure. Mara means bitter. TheAlmighty hath dealt bitterly withme.�It was wrong for her to com

plain against God; but the same sortof complaining is common today.When one commits suicide, or dies ina fit of drunkenness, it is far fromthe truth to say that it has "pleasedGod to take out of this world the soulof our deceased brother." I fear Godhad little to do with his going; but asthe fool dieth, so died he. If God was

responsible for the deaths of Elimelech and the two sons, it was allright, for he never does wrong, nor

is he ever cruel or unjust.The last two verses of the lesson

need little comment: While Naomicontinues her quarrel against Providence, it is not in a bad spirit; nor

will we condemn her, because thatsort of thing seems to be common inall ages. It is important to note thatthey reached Bethlehem at the beginning of the Barley harvest�in thevery early part of the summer. Some

commentators make it as early as

April, or the first of May. It was

just the right time for Ruth to gogleaning in the barley field of Boaz.While gleaning grain she littlethought of the possibility of findinga good husband; but that was onetime when a far-seeing Providencewas looking after her welfare. Thatmarriage with Boaz put her in lineto be one of the ancestors of ourblessed Lord.

ROCHESTER, KENTUCKY.

Allow me to make a brief report ofmy meetings through The Herald. Ihave been a subscriber to this won

derful paper for some years and ex

pect to continue. On June 23, I wentto Ashbyburg on the Hanson chargewith A. C. Bowles. We had a greatmeeting. There were only two con

versions, but the pastor said hischurch was greatly revived. I thenwent to hold a community revival atStar Schoolhouse near nny old homeat Smith Mills, Ky. There were 12conversions and reclamations withfour giving their names for membership in the Baptist Church and twofor the Methodist. This is where Ibegan my evangelistic work yearsago, this being my fourth meetingthere. The 14th, I begin with J. L.Mitchell on the McDaniel's charge. Icovet the prayers of The Heraldreaders for this revival.

John W. Moore.�^.��

A WONDERFUL REPORT.

Robert Chung, one of our foreignboys who graduated from AsburyCollege some years ago, is now in hisnative land, Korea, holding revivalmeetings in various parts of thecountry. He has been graciouslyused of the Lord, and is known as the"Billy Sunday" of Korea. During thepast year and a half he has prayedthrough with 6,406 souls. What a

record! He says it is common to use

the whole church floor for an altar.You know they do not have chairs in

Korea, but sit on the floors and oftentimes the whole audience is bowedbefore the Lord crying for mercy.To use his own words, he says: "In

every meeting I remember the wayDr. Morrison conducted his meetings,and even out here. Dr. Morrison helpsme. He is my ideal man in my life.I am thinking again and again ofwhat Dr. Morrison has done in mylife and what he is doing. Tell himthat I love him."Is it worth while to educate such

boys to preach the gospel of Jesus toa neglected and hungry people likethe Koreans? I will let you answer.

Brother Chung is supported by people in America and Dr. F. H. Larabee,Wilmore, Ky., has charge of hisfunds. I mention this in case any one

should want to help him tell the old,old story of Jesus and his love to the

Koreans. Mrs. H. C. Morrison.

"What we preach in these days" seems to be an open question in some theological circles. Asbury Seminary is in harmony at this point with St Paul's dictum,"Preach the word."

With Asbury, "the what" is not an open question, and "the how" is answeredby taking a three-year course in theology culminating in the B. D. degree. "Thewhole Bible for the whole world" sanely interpreted and heroically preached is theideal toward which we strive. Write Dean F. H. Larabee, Wilmore, Ky., for catalog

LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION.By The Editor.

HOSE who have read a sketch ofJohn Bunyan's life as given insome of the publications of Pilgrim's Progress, may call tomind the fact that Bunyan saysthat he believed one reason why

he had some fierce spiritual battles, arose outof the fact that he neglected to pray withearnestness, "Lead me not into temptation,"or for personal deliverance from the fierceattacks of Satan upon his faith.

* * � �

By the way, do we really pray God to preserve us against temptation, to protect us

from the personal assaults of the Devil ? Heis a powerful enemy, has had large experience and, sad to say, wonderful success.

Look what he did for David, great, good man

that David was ! Look at the havoc hewrought in the life of Samson, Saul andSolomon. Mighty men, but Satan certainlystruck them fearful blows with disastrouseffect. His great effort is to rob us of ourfaith, to break up our peace, to introducedoubt into our mind, to draw us away fromour restful trust in the Word of God, theDeity of o^ur Lord, and his gracious savingpower from sin.

� * * *

Who has not had his low tides of spirituallife, some cloudy days for his soul? Well doI remember a tremendous battle for myfaith. It must have been a direct personalattack of Satan. I was in my first stationat Stanford, Ky. The first thing I knew my

spiritual joy seemed to run down to a mere

trickle. I was beclouded, almost frightened,and then, fearful doubts assailed me; darkquestions came into my mind about everything connected with my Christianity. I laystretched upon my floor, face down, and itseemed I could hardly pray. This continuedsome time. When Sabbath would come Iwould walk to the church with fearful questions in my mind. 1 would get relief whilepreaching, but the enemy would assail me before I got to my boarding house and the battle would wage fiercely. I was greatly distressed. The darts of the enemy flew fast

and sharp. I did not speak to any one. I

was ashamed to doubt anything connectedwith God and his Word. I had not read anyof the skeptical teachings of the destructivecritics. How fortunate!

* * * *

Under those conditions, if I had fallen into the hands of one of your modernisticpreachers or teachers I would have been an

easy victim. I stuck to the Bible and foughtthe battle out on my knees. The clouds rolled

away, my faith became restful and my heartwas happy. Those who fill their mind withthe skeptical teachings of religious writingswhich are not Christian, but anything else,in their times of testing are liable to be

swept from their foundation. In those daysof, great battle against the Prince of the power of the air, I determined by the grace ofGod to shelter my soul from the teachingsand influence of all skeptical men, whether inthe church or out of it, and now in the even-

FIFTY THOUSAND NEW READERSBY JANUARY 1, 1931.

I believe we shall get them. I know thatis a large number, but the paper has a mes

sage and it has many friends who believe itsmessage, and who will help to send it out totheir fellowbeings.The Pentecostal Herald has a firm, unques

tioning faith in the God of the Bible, in theChrist of prophecy, the New Testament andCalvary; in the fulness of the atonement hemade for sin that, resurrected and glorified, heis now blessedly real to those who trust in,love and serve him. That he manifests hirn-self to them in such way that their faith istriumphant, that they know whom they havebelieved.The Pentecostal Herald believes in the Holy

Ghost, his presence, power, witness; that heis a person; that he is here on this globe mov

ing among men; that he guides, witnesses,cleanses, comforts and empowers for servicethose who will receive him to aibde in his tem

ple; in the very being of those who have beenbought and cleansed with the precious bloodof Christ.These beliefs are scriptural. They are won

derful, but God is a great God and his re

sources are inexhaustible. He is omnipotentin power and, strange as it may seem, he lovesmen, loves them in their sins. Our Lord Jesuscame down and gave us the parable of the

prodigal son to teach us how wonderfully Godloves the lost. He opens his arms to receive

upon the bosom of his mercy, returning prodigals.These Bible truths are the message of The

Pentecostal Herald. No hesitation, no apology, just heralding the blessed fact of gloriousredemption. A heart hungry world wants a

great Saviour, one mighty to deliver and ableto keep. This is the Christ we would heraldto all men.The 50 cent proposition is going splendidly.

Names are coming in by hundreds, and the listis growing. Help us herald to the people thatJesus Christ is mighty to save to the uttermost. Let's write it, and talk it, and tell it,and help the eternal Father to awaken a

multitude of prodigals in the far country, andarouse in them a deep hunger for the bountiful supplies of bread in the Father's house.

ing of life I am profoundly thankful that Idid so resolve and have kept that resolution.

* * * *

I suggest the same thing to my readers.Cultivate and strengthen your faith. Donot go to men for religious teaching who donot accept the Word of God as a divine reve

lation and Christ for all he claims for himselfin his teaching. Root and ground yourselfin the eternal truths of the Scriptures. Do

not, in your vain desires, undertake to ap

pear scholarly by reading the writings of thedestructive critics, the modernists, but al

ways, and everywhere, feed your intellectand spirit in the pastures of divine truth,that you may be able, midst all the testingsof life, to stand, and not only so, but may

you be able to succor your fellowbeings whoare under severe temptation and great danger of falling. Never drink of the stagnantpools of doubt but from the pure fountains ofdivine truth.

SometKing, Strange has Happened.oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

ILMO'ST every one I meet, andhave opportunity for quiet,thoughtful conversation, is in a

serious mood. Without an ex

ception, they feel that some

thing strange has happend to our

world. The sun still shines, the moon con

tinues to appear in the heavens, the watersstill flow toward the ocean, and dear old na

ture seems to be grinding away as usual.But there is something missing in the

world ; at least, there seems to be. Therewas a faith, a confidence, a reverence forGod, a love of truth, a faith in Christ, a witness of the Holy Ghost that seems to havesadly waned. There is a strange feeling ofdesolation, of emptiness, of! expectation ofsome sort of dire calamity. As reverence forGod has gone out of the hearts of men, as

their faith in the Bible has passed away, theyseem to have lost reverence for human law,faith in, and love for, their fellowbeings.Men are afraid to trust each other as theyonce did. There is an uncertainty in things.Banks fail, stocks and bonds depreciate invalue, often to the vanishing point. Men whofelt themselves in good circumstances yesterday, wake up this morning to find themselvespaupers. People who have money fear to invest or deposit it for safe keeping. Theylook at each other something like orphanchildren who have come home from the ceme

tery where they have buried both of theirparents who were killed in an automobile ac

cident. They have a sense of great emptiness. They walk about without knowingwhat to say or do. They have a feeling as

if they had reached the end of the trail.One devout old college professor down in

the southland says he believes the Holy Ghosthas withdrawn from the church. That hemay be found here and there in the individual, but the assurance, the peace and joythat once characterized the church, as a

whole, have strangely and sadly passedaway.When parents leave home to attend some

church affair for a few days, or to visit distant relatives, the children may imagine theywill have large liberty and a good time. Fora while they can cut up and have high jinks,then they can quarrel, pull hair, and scratchfaces. Then they can pile up the disheswithout washing them; they can disputeabout whose time it is to make beds andstraighten up the house and milk the cows.

They can put the dogs after the mule whenhe gets into the yard, and knock over thebeehives; they can go to the orchard andkindle a fire to broil some weiners, get a firestarted ; a heavy wind comes and burns up arick of straw and a couple of haystacks.After a few days of freedom, disagreement,rows and wastings, they will begin to feel

RIVER AND OCEAN AND WESTWARD BOUND.Rev. G. W. Ridout D.D., Corresponding Editor.

"I must go down to the seas, again, the lonelysea and the sky,

And all I ask is a tall ship and a star tosteer her by.

And the wheel's kick and the wind's songand the white sails' shaking,

And a grey mist on the sea's face and a greydawn breaking."

We have sailed many seas and gone up anddown many rivers. Now for the first time we

sail out from the River Thames as we takeour steamer homeward bound from London,May 30th.

� There is a story told of the Thames Riverabout two soldiers and John Burns (the famous House of Commons Labor favorite).They were comparing rivers. One of the soldier boys was Canadian and he said, "Oh, theThames is a great river but you ought to see

our St. Lawrence." The other soldier boywas American and he said, "But for a bigriver you ought to see our Mississippi." ThenJohn Burns spoke up and said, "Yes, I haveseen your great St. Lawrence River and itsclear waters, and I have seen your greatMississippi with its muddy waters, but Iwant you to remember that the Thames as a

river is liquid history."I think Burns uttered a great truth there.

Perhaps no river in the world has seen so

many galleys and ships of all nations sailupon its bosom. The Thames is a river ofhistory. Julius Ceesar maybe was propelledup this great stream in his state barge whenhe visited his newly conquered land. Probably Augustine, England's first ChristianMissionary, sailed up the Thames and fromits banks proclaimed the first gospel mes

sage. Who that has been in London can forget London Bridge, or Westminster Bridge,with the great House of Parliament besideit. The Thames R'ver is only a bit over twohundred miles in length, yet it makes thePort of London, the largest port in the world.Ships of all nations and from all the corners

of the globe come here because London is a

clearing house for the whole wide world.Here, too, on the Thames the greatest shipsof the world were built in the long ago; herethe "Great Eastern" was built which in thosedays was considered the largest ship ever

built. It was the wonder of the century, butnowadays they build ships so immense thatthe "Great Eastern" could be loaded on theirdeck.The Thames of London furnishes a great

field for gospel work. Churches and Missions and Institutes are built along its banksso that the sailors and the teeming thousandswhose homes are close by the great ships willnot have it to say : "No man careth for mysoul." One Methodist preacher who has madehistory in East London close by these famousdocks is a man known the world over now as

Lax of Poplar. He is one of God's live wires.Twenty-seven years of his ministry havebeen lived among the masses, the drunks, thethieves, the sailors, the working classes andthe merchants of East London. "Lax is a

man great in heart, in vision and in power;great in speech and with the pen, a wonderful gift of God to London, to Poplar and tothe Methodist Church." So says Dr. EnsorWalters, the Home Mission man. Lax is a

man of God with the human touch. Some one

has written :

"It's the human touch in this world thatcounts.

The touch of your hand and mine ;That means far more to the fainting heartThan shelter or bread or wine.

For shelter is gone when the night is o'erAnd bread lasts only a day ;

But the touch of the hand and the sound ofthe voice,

Live in the soul alway."Brother Lax has to meet all classes and

conditions of people and touches life from ev

ery point. Hear one or two of his stories :

One of the widow ladies has been absentfrom the Mission for quite a while; he looksher up and says to her, "I haven't seen you atthe Mission lately, I hope there is no troublethat keeps you away.""Yus, but there is sir, and very serious

trouble, too," she replied with asperity, at thesame time tossing her head, I'm not comingno more to be insulted.""Insulted," I exclaimed!"Yus sir, insulted in the 'Ouse of God.""And who insulted you?""Why, it was that tall young man with

long black 'air. 'E said to me, smiling like,as I was going in, 'Good Evening Miss.' Yus,'e called me Miss!�Miss indeed! A disgraceful name to give to a respectable mar

ried woman !""But then, Mrs. B," I replied diplomatical

ly, "I can quite understand why the youngman should make such a mistake, whoeverwould take you to be your age? With yourshingled hair and silk stockings, you lookmore like sixteen than sixty.""Does yer think so?" she said with a low

voice and an eager smile. "Yer know whenI looked in the glass this morning I thoughtI looked young enough to get married again.""Certain, Mrs. B."�I replied, "Never give

up hope.""All right, sir, I'll be there next Sunday.

Yer can tell the young man I've forgiven'im."Here is a street scene depicted by Lax. He

was passing along one day when he saw a

crowd gathered ; he inquired what the trouble was. "Eh guvnor, two women are in a

scrap down our street�they're goin' to killone another." Both women were drunk andthey were fighting. At length one of them,a woman of fifty, staggered and fell; theyounger woman who struck her stooped over

the prostrate body and said: "Git up Doll,I'm sorry I 'urt yer, git up mate." But thewoman seemed dead. "I believe she issnuffed out," said a man, eyeing her. "Yes,I believe she's beyond human help." "She'.'!dropped stone dead," said another. Two policemen drew near ; they sent for an ambulance and proceeded to apprehend the woman

who hit her. "I didn't intend to 'urt 'er,"she wailed. "Ers my pal !"A bigger crowd than ever now gathered.

Ambulance arrived with nurse who examinedthe body and decided that she was dead;stretcher was brought out and they proceeded to lift the heavy woman in the ambulance.A slight motion was observed in the body,then a lurch and then an effort to sit up was

observed. The "corpse" did sit up. Shecaught sight of the policemen, the nurse, andthe preacher and crowd, and then still sittingupon the stretcher let out a torrent of themost vile language that could be imagined ;her vocabulary of profanity knew no bound ;finally she struggled to her feet and shakingout her garments like a hen shakes out herfeathers after a tiff with a dog, she caughtsight of her young antagonist and said:"Come along with me Mrs. 'Arris." And as

they walked away arm in arm she screamedto the amazed crowd : "Cown't two respectable married women 'ave a few words? andcawnt a wife and mother 'ave a fit!" Andaway they toddled down street arm in arm,"Wimmin's queer cattle," said one of the policemen, dolefully. "I think like old Omar,Sir," said the other police. "Didn't he say,'God I thank thee that thou didst not makeme a woman.' "

The English people have a way of ex

pressing themselves that we Americans haveto get used to if we spend much time withthem. A woman came to Lax asking him ifhe would please explain a recommendationshe received from her late employer. It ran

thus : "Mrs. Patten has been my cook for sixmonths; it seemed longer. She left on account of illness. My illness." (Signed)

. It was a mystery to thepoor cook but not to the minister.Let me now turn to more serious matters.

London is a great Christian city, with, ofcourse, all the limitations and explanationswhich these words involve. It is a city ofchurches and Bibles. More Bibles are printedand published in London, I suppose, than anycity in the world. I came across the following lines in a London paper recently :

"Cling to the Bible, though all else be taken;Lose not its precepts so precious and pure;

Souls that are sleeping its tidings awaken;Life from the dead in its promises sure.

"Cling to the Bible! this jewel and treasureBrings life eternal, and saves fallen man;

Surely its value no mortal can measure:

Seek for its blessing, 0 soul, while you can.

"Lamp for the feet that in byways have wandered,Guide for the youth that would otherwise fall;

Hope for the sinner whose life has been squandered.

Staff for the aged and Best Book of all."

After .we came to our ship and had got settled in our cabin we were surprised by thesudden and unexpected visit of three brethren, two of whom I had never met before.The three were Rev. William Fetler, Founderand General Director of the Russian Missionary Society, Rev. Dr. A. McCaig, of Spur-geon's College, London, and Mr. Charles Phillips, a business man of London. These men

are devotedly interested in Russia and particularly in the work of evangelization inRussia. I had promised Mr. Fetler, whom Imet in California in 1928 as we were aboutto sail for China, that we would visit hiswork in Riga, Latvia and preach at the Salvation Tabernacle there. Unfortunately itseemed impossible to carry out our originalplans and we did not get as far as Riga.Now, let me here say a few words about

Mr. Fetler and his work. I regard him as

one of the apostolical men of our times andhis vision for Russia has never dimmed, andhis passion for the Russian people has never

wavered. Bye and bye when the unspeakable Soviet Government with its hell-born persecutions, its despotism, its reign of bloodand atheism shall come to an end and its cupof iniquity shall be full, there will come opendoors for the gospel of the Lord Jesus andMr. Fetler's great organization will be readyto step in with trained and experienced men

of God to do the work of evangelization. Inthe meantime a great work under Fetler isgoing on in Latvia, Poland, Roumania, Bulgaria, Finland, France, Germany, Switzerland, and over one hundred preachers andevangelists are kept at work in these variouslands among Russian refugees.I have always been deeply interested in

Russia and I have absolute confidence inWilliam Fetler's work and I would urge myreaders to get in touch with this movement.One day�it may be soon�God's clock willstrike, and the gospel bells will ring again inRussia, and when the doors open the mostunusual opportunity will be offered for missionary work.Last night, on board, we had a lecture by a

Yale man who ten years ago or more was inRussia engaged, I believe, in Missionarywork. The lecturer drew a very rosy pictureof Russia, extolling it and condoning its system of education, etc. The chairman of themeeting was a big man wearing the clothesof an Episcopal clergyman. He ravedagainst the church, called Voltaire as good a

man as David, denounced Christianity, etc.,etc. My blood boiled�the fire was stirred inmy bones and towards the close I got a

chance to say a few things. I asked. IfSoviet Russia was not now doing the same

thing as they tried to do in the bloody FrenchRevolution. They were blotting God out and


removing the Almighty from their horizon,and atheism and godlessness ruled the day.When France was wading in blood Englandwas going through a Revolution also, but it^as without riot and blood and fire. It was a

jnoral and religious revolution brought on

by the preaching of the gospel by John Wesley and the revival produced prevented thegnglish-speaking people from going over the

precipice.I hate to see an infidel dressed up in clergy

ganb. It is a sight to make angels weep anddevils laugh. The facetious and deceptivecry of "Hberty," "freedom," "open mind," isproducing in our age a total and absolute re

pugnance towards all law, all authority human and divine. The Ten Commandmentsare treated as fiction, the Bible is literature,and religion is weakness. There is sometruth and a good deal of error in those linesso often used these days :

"It matters not how straight the gate.How charged with punishments the scroll,

I am the master of my fate:I am the Captain of my soul."

The theology of that verse is wrong. Iwould rather singIt matters not how straight the gate,How charged with punishments the scroll,

Christ is the Master of my fate:Christ is the Master of my soul.

There is a story told of Napoleon that hetold a certain Ambassador that he would destroy their empire. The Ambassador re

plied, "Man proposes, but God disposes.""Tell your Master," thundered Napoleon,

"that I am he that proposes and I am he that

disposes."Napoleon met a retributive God at Mos

cow. The tiny snowflake rebuked him andhe left in the snows of Russia over two hundred thousand of his troops, and a little later

on, he met God at Waterloo and he was finished !

A New Trail TKrou^h TKe New Testament.Rev. Andrew Johnson, D. D.

PAUL TEACHES TIMOTHY.

NOTHER turn of the Trail takesus to the group of Pauline writings known as the PastoralEpistles, namely First and Second Timothy and Titus. Paul'sfirst imprisonment at Rome, as

recorded by Luke in the last chapter of theActs of Apostles, has ended. He is once

more foot-loose and free to continue hisevangelistic and missionary peregrinations.He appoints Timothy, his favorite son in thegospel, to take charge of all the ecclesiasticalaffairs in the cosmopolitan city of Ephesus,while he repairs to Macedonia, the famousstamping ground of former days. From some

unknown point in Macedonia along about theyear 65 or 66 A. D., Paul penned the Pastoral Epistle, known as First Timothy. Notwithstanding the fact that the Pastor Epistles are in the Syriac version which was

made in the Second Century, and are usedby Apostolic Fathers, Greek apologists, earlyheretics; have the witness of Ancient versions, primitive churches and are acknowledged alike by historian, canon and council,yet some destructive higher critics have thetemerity to deny the Pauline authorship ofthese books ! It might be well to take noteof the six arguments offered by the criticsfor rejecting the Pauline authorship of thesePastoral Epistles. In so doing it will showhow weak and flimsy are the objectionsusually urged by the critics against the genuineness and authenticity of the variousbooks of the Holy Bible.

1. Historical blunders. The critics claimthat the journeys to which the apostle makesreference are inconsistent with his move

ments as recorded in Acts. According toFirst Timothy 1:3 Timothy had been left atEphesus while Paul proceeded to Macedonia ;but in Acts (19:22 ; 20:1) Timothy was sentfrom Ephesus to Macedonia in advance ofPaul. This so-called difficulty is easilycleared away when we take into consideration the fact that there were two imprisonments of Paul at Rome. After his first imprisonment (Acts 28 :30 and Phil. 1:13) Paulwas set free in 62 or 63 A. D., and arrestedagain in 66 or 67. The incident recorded byLuke took place before Paul ever went to

Rome, while the journey mentioned by Paulin the Epistle of Timothy was made by theApostle in the interim between the two imprisonments. Clement of Rome in his FirstEpistle to the Corinthians (97 A. D.) speaksof Paul as having gone to the extreme limitof the West. This evidently refers to Paul's^sit to Spain. For many years it was Paul'splan to visit Spain. He expected to "takein" Spain in his first visit to Rome. (Rom.15:24). The Muratorian Fragment, a docu-

' raent dated about 200 A. D., indicates thatPaul visited Spain. But whether or not hevisited Spain he was released from the first

imprisonment at Rome and visited Macedonia as stated in First Timothy. If the

question is raised why Luke did not record

the release and second imprisonment ofPaul, the answer is plain. The date of theActs of Apostles, as determined by the bestscholarship, is aJbout 61 A D. Whereas Paulwas set free from his first imprisonment in62 or 63 A. D. This explains why Luke's history of Paul ended with a description of thetwo years of the first imprisonment duringwhich time the Apostle was allowed to re

main in his own hired house guarded ofcourse by a Roman soldier. (Acts 28 :30.) Butwhen Paul was arrested and taken to Romethe second time, instead of being permittedto remain in his own hired house he was

thrust into the dark and dismal Mamertineprison.

2. The critics contend that the heresiesexposed and opposed in the Pastoral Epistles, especially in 1 Timothy, have referenceto the Gnosticism of the Second Century. Ifthe polemic that appears in the Epistle was

aimed at the Second Century Gnosticism,then of course Paul was not the author, saythe critics. But the heresies condemned inTimothy and Titus are not the full-grownerrors of the Gnostic system of the secondcentury. They are heresies that sprang upduring Apostolic times and consisted of speculations about the Law (1 Tim. 1:7-10_; 2Tim. 3:14-17), about genealogies (1 Tim.1:4; Titus 3:9), about Jewish fables (Titus1:14). All these heresies doubtless existedin the days of St. Paul. So the critics failto make out their case against the Paulineauthorship of the Pastorals on this score.

3. Church organization. The criticsclaim that the nature of the polity of thechurch as reflected by the Epistle of Timothypoint to a time later than that of St. Paul.For instance they say that the term bishopas used in the Pastorals implies a post-apostolic date. The word bishop is from the

Greek, episcopos, and means overseer. It issynonymous with the term presbuteros or

elder. Hence we cannot infer a post-apostolicdate for an Epistle or book of the New Testament merely because it contains the term

episcopos. This method of procedure wouldbring down the date of the Acts of the Apostles to sub-apostolic times. Paul addressedthe elders of Ephesus who met him at Miletus as episcopous or bishops. In Paul's dayand diction an episcopos was a presbuteros.A bishop was an elder and an elder was a

bishop. Again we see that the critics com

pletely fail to rob Paul of the authorship ofthe Pastoral Epistles.

4. Paul an Apostle. The critics bring forward another objection to the Pauline au

thorship of First and Second Timothy andTitus found in the fact that the writer em

phatically asserts his apostleship. Theyclaim that Paul in writing to intimatefriends and disciples did not assert his apos

tleship and cite the case of Philippians andPhilemon as proof of their position. But in

reply it may be said that these Pastoral

Epistles are not, properly speaking, privateletters. While in a certain sense they are

personal they are also pastoral and popularepistles intended to be read to the churchesat large. The very fact that false doctrineswere to be guarded against sufficiently ex

plains the necessity of settling the Apostolicseal to the Epistles. It is out of the questionto suppose that some pseudonomous writerat a later time forged Paul's name in order togive his letter weight and authority.

5. Language and style. This constitutesone of the stock arguments of the critics intheir contention for a later or post-apostolicdate of the Pastoral Epistles. We are toldthat there are over one hundred and seventywords in these pastoral epistles which are notelsewhere present in the New Testament.Conservative scholars, however, have nullified this objection by carefully searching andascertaining that nearly half of these so-called new words are contained in the Sep-tuagint, that over fifty are found in classicalwriters that flourished not later than St.Paul. The remainder can be explained asnecessitated by new siibjects. Paul waswriting many years after his earlier letters.It is nothing but natural that any author,writing at different times, on difl^erent subjects and in different moods, should use asomewhat different style. Once again, therefore, the critics go down in defeat in theirattempt to disprove the Pauline authorshipof the Pastoral Epistles.

6. Insistence upon sound doctrine. Thevery fact that Paul so strenuously contendsfor sound doctrine has been seized by thecritics as an argument against the genuineness of the Pastoral Epistles. But nothingcould be more natural than that Paul shouldemphasize the necessity of contending forthe faith in the presence of false teaching.Thus we see that the critics who have at

tempted on the ground of internal evidenceto disprove the Pauline authorship of thePastoral Epistles have signally failed at every point in the field of controversy.The external evidence for the Pauline au

thorship of the Pastoral Epistles is verystrong. Irenaeus (180 A. D.) quotes from 1Timothy as a genuine letter of St. Paul. Ter-tullian and Clement of Alexandria speak ofthe Pastorals as Paul's writings. It is truethat Marcion, the heretic of the Second Century, omits these epistles from his collectionof authoritative Christian writings. ButMarcion could not consistently accept theseEpistles as they were utterly at variancewith his doctrine.The Pastoral Epistles, personal, practical

and doctrinal, contain Paul's last will andtestament in which he gives his final instructions for the maintainance and perpetuity ofthe Christian faith.

THE HOLY SPIRIT AND POWER."YE SHALL RECEIVE POWER."

Acts 1:8.

HAT sounds modern enough tohave been uttered only yesterday, doesn't it? Because we are

living in the age of power. Nomatter what realm you touch,power is the magic word.

Is it finance? There are the money kings^�the millionaires, the multi-millionaires, thebillionaires, the Fords, the Rockefellers, theMorgans, the Deterdings�men of vast financial power.Is it social? There are the four hundreds,

the bon-tons, the elite, the high social raters�the Ganns and the Alice Longworths. Bythe way, I am an aristocrat myself. I belongto the finest aristocracy in this universe. Myclaim is based upon the following: "We are

children of God now, beloved ; what we are

to be is not apparent yet, but we do knowthat when he appears, we are to be like him�for we are to see him as he is." Do youknow of an aristocracy equal to that?Is it politics ? There are the Lloyd Georges,

the Briands, the Mussolinis, the Kemals, theStalins�men of enormous political power.Is it the realm of brains? There are the

Edisons, the Stemimetzes, the Einsteins, theMilligans, the Deweys, etc.Is it the ecclesiastical realm? There are

the Shailer Matthews, the McConnells, theFosdicks, the Cadmans, the Mannings, theRileys, the Truetts, the Billy Sundays.Is that the kind of power Jesus meant ? No,

a thousand times no ! To Christ that kind ofpower was wholly secondary. He was talking about the power of God, the power oftruth, the power of a righteous life, the power that makes God a living and an availablereality in one's heart and life and the powerto make God real and available to others.That's the kind of power Jesus was talkingabout away back there in that primitive firstcentury. That's the kind of power mostneeded in this ultra-modern twentieth cen

tury of ours. And I will tell you why.O'ur civilization stands today in great dan

ger of being over-materialized and underspiritualized, of putting the emphasis on

things to the neglect of the great invisiblerealities back of things. In things materialwe are making amazing progress. Our ma

terial civilization has made more progress inthe last hundred years than in any thousandyears before. If you doubt it look at theamazing advance in the fields of biology, psychology, bacteriology, geology, astronomy,physics, chemistry. Or look at the amazinginventions that have poured in upon us fromthe minds of our inventive geniuses�thetelegraph, the telephone, the automobile, theairplane, the radio, and all kinds of modernmachinery, from Ely Whitney's cotton gin tothe great multiple presses that print our

newspapers. Or look at our amazing wealth.A national income of seventy-five billions a

year, unthinkable! Of course the big question is, what are we doing with our wealth ?Upon our answer to that question hangs our

future.

Rev. I. M. Harnett, D.D.Or look at our modern transportation as

compared to that of our grandfathers. Compare the old ox-wagon with its speed of' twomiles per hour to our modern planes goingtwo hundred' miles per hour. But where are

we going? That's the real question uponwhose answer hangs our destiny. One daywhen Mr. Huxley was advertised to speakbefore the British Association in Dublin, arriving late at the station he jumped into a

cab, jolting over the streets until the greatscientist becoming anxious inquired, "Do youknow where we are going?" The driveranswered, "No, I don't know where we are

going, but I am driving fast." We modernsare driving furiously fast, but do we knowwhere we are going? Are we going anywhere in particular? Or, fascinated with thespeed, are we just going?Or look at our modern means of commu

nication as compared to that of our forefathers. Was it not Lieutenant GovernorDinwiddle of Virginia who sent youngGeorge Washington, then nineteen years ofage, with an important message to a Frenchcolony over in the valley of the Ohio? Itwas a perilous trip and took him months tomake it. How long does it take the Governorof Virginia today to communicate with anyone in the valley of the Ohio or the valley ofthe Congo? I reached Copenhagen, Denmarkone Saturday, July 1st. Going into the officeof the hotel I asked how much it would costme to send a cablegram to my wife in theStates. Upon being told I made a rapid men

tal calculation and decided I could afford theluxury at least once. Writing out the mes

sage, I paid for it and he sent it away sizzlingunder the waves of the ocean. It was teno'clock at night. When I reached home Iasked my wife if she got my cablegram."Yes," said she. "When?" said I. She re

plied,. "About six o'clock Saturday eveningJuly 1st." So you see she got it four hoursbefore I sent it. That's modern communication for you. Tomorrow morning as we sipour coffee and eat our toast we will read inthe morning paper every important thingthat happened round the world today. Yes,we have amazing means of communication,but what have we to say? That's the realquestion. Upon the answer depends our influence in this great world.Modern science has made the world a

neighborhood and a whispering gallery. Itis now up to the church and the school tomake it a brotherhood. If we don't greed,selfishness and materialism will turn it backto a barbarism. It does look as though Godis shoving this generation out onto the hornsof a dilemma. He seems to be saying to us,"you can make your modern science and progress the means to world brotherhood or youcan use it selfishly in greed and hate and warand it will destroy you."

Does any thinking person honestly believethe church with its spiritual realities haskept pace with our material progress? Wasold Goldsmith right or wrong when he said :

"111 fares the land to hastening ills a prey.When wealth accumulates and men decay."

If the great sage of Concord, Ralph Waldo

Emerson, could say in his quiet day, "Things �

are in the saddle and ride mankind," what;would he say in our day?Was Lord Bryce right or wrong in his last

great book, "Modern Democracies," when he :

said, "The future of democracy depends up- ;on two factors, the progress of mankind inwisdom and virtue, and the future of religion." Wonder what little warts like H. L.,Mencken, Sinclair Lewis, Rupert Hughes';and professor Barnes think of a statement :like that from one of the greatest thinkers �

of the last century?Who dares say Calvin Coolidge was not..

dead right when he said, from his high posi- -:

tion as President of the greatest country in -

the world : "An intellectual growth will onlyadd to our confusion unless it is accompanied -

by moral growth. I do not know of any'source of moral power than that which conies .'�from religion. I do not know of any ade- ~.quate support for our form of government,.except that which comes from religion. I,can conceive of no adequate remedy ioiZthe evils which beset society except the influences which come from religion."Edwin E. Slosson, late lamented scientist,,

said, "We are riding a horse too big for us."Alfred Russell Wallace, the eminent scientist :and associate of Charles Darwin, made this

.

statement on his ninety-second birthday:."Our science has outstripped our moral de-",velopment; we have become possessed ofgreater forces than we are morally fit to use.

We have not sufficient self-control or good .

will to use these gigantic physical energiesfor the welfare of mankind ^nd are dailyturning them into weapons ot destruction."Five of the greatest living historians of

Great Britain were recently asked, "Will ourcivilization survive?" They all agreed thatunless our moral and spiritual power caughtup with the development of machinery, hu- ~

manity would destroy itself. Wilf we pay no

attention to these warnings, but be like stiff-necked old Nero who kept on playing his fiddle while Rome burned ?Let me ask you a very vital question. From

whence did the urge come that gave the mo

mentum to this amazing material civilizationof ours? Roger Babson, the renowned statistician answers: "Our national prosperityis a direct result of the moral and spiritualintegrity of our forebears." We are livingon the moral and spiritual capital of our

forefathers. If it took spiritual power to

produce our civilization, will it not take thesame to maintain it? Personally, I am thoroughly convinced this great material civilization of ours will not endure unless it is rootedin God and those eternal realities that Godrepresents. I believe God is necessary to ourlife and future happiness.That's where the church comes in. The

business of the church is to generate moraland spiritual power and pour it out into ev

ery department of life. That's where we

preachers come in. The big business of thepreacher is not to be a dilettante of art, music, culture and literature; not to be a back-slapping, hand-shaking artist, not to be a

past-master at after-dinner speaking with a

WTednesday, July 30, 1930. THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD 5

quiver full of funny stories to make fellowslaugh. Personally, I refuse to speak anywhere I am not permitted to put across a

spiritual message. The business of the

preacher is to generate moral and spiritualpower and to keep a sense of God alive in thehearts of men in this driving, exacting age.If you doubt me study the old prophets andtheir messages. They were specialists inmoral and spiritual power. They awoke a

sense of God in the hearts of men. If youstill doubt me look at the apostles and listento them as they preach righteousness and

judgment to come. They forced men to con

sider God and his claims upon them. If youstill doubt me, look at all the great preachersdown across the centuries�Savonarola,Luther, Knox, Fox, Wesley, Edwards, Finney, Asbury, Brooks, Moody.There never was a time in the history of

our world when our ministry and messagewere more needed than now if we have fromGod a real ministry and message. If we

haven't we had_ better quit. We representthose great spiritual and eternal realities bywhich men live, and without which our civilization cannot live.The very safety and security of the world

in which our children and grandchildren willlive depend upon our fidelity to God andtruth. I do not know how you feel, but I amniightily interested in the world in which mychildren and grandchildren will live.I feel exactly as did Dr. Samuel Shoemaker

of Calvary Episcopal Church, New YorkCity, when he said in words that literallyburn:"I am sick of hearing ministers say things

they know everybody will agree with insteadof huriing down a spiritual dare to disquietthe hearts and disturb the consciences of people who really want God but can never reallyhave him until the waters of their lives havebeen troubled by a great challenge."I am tired of churches which make every

appeal but the appeal of leligion; providingall sorts of amusements and clinics and clubs,while the souls of their people starve."We have not captured the imagination of

this corporation by attempting to tone downreligion to the level of the people. Whatthey want us to do is to raise them to thelevel of religion."Dr. E. Stanley Jones, in his recent book,

tells how in the Federated Malay States hehas seen men, grown men, sitting on theridges of the rice fields and fishing in a footof water. Within sight of them the greatocean rolls, but there they sit and fish in ricefields. One is forced to wonder if God doesnot classify much of our church activities as

"Fishing in rice fields." While all the timeneeds and problems are roaring in our ears.

Isn't it a fact evident to all that, while our

modern material civilization is roaring upthe road of progress with high power speed,the church is limping and halting and hardlyholding its own. Joseph Fort Newton says :

"One thing must be plain to all ; religion as

we now have it is impotent and uncreative."And yet never since the Middle Ages has theChristian Church built such magnificent temples of worship as now. In Tulsa, Oklahoma,a small city of a little less than a hundredand fifty thousand people, there are twobrand new million dollar churches. One ofthem cost nearly a million and a half. Ourministers today are probably the best educated and the best trained of all these nineteenhundred years. Our program of religiouseducation has never been so comprehensiveand adequate as now. The membership ofthe Protestant Churches runs up into millions; never so many people belonged to thechurch as now. The wealth of our peoplewas never so great as it is today. Much ofthe wealth of the country is in the hands ofthe church people. And yet the church islimping and halting and hesitating in theface of the world's dire need of the thingswe profess to have�God's power.There is only one thing that will save the

church of this generation and male it powerful to save the world and that is a new

Pentecost, The Power of the Holy Ghost,God's dynamite. An Episcopal Bishop wroteto one of his rectors and said, "I want tocome out to your Parish and hold a quiet retreat." The rector replied, "My Lord, whatthis Parish needs is not a quiet retreat, butan earthquake." Spiritual earthquakes ! Divine dynamite! The power of the HolyGhost ! That is what we need and that is theonly thing that will save the church fromthe doldrums, from fear, and hesitation andmake it a challenging, conquering church.Vye need the Holy Ghost to come to us andgive us back our spiritual initiative, challengeand dare and take us off the defensive andput us on the offensive. What army ever

won a war fighting on the defensive? Neithercan the church

Be it said to our everlasting sh-^me thatthe great Methodist Church with all of itsmagnificent temples, its wealth, its religiouseducation, its great Sunday schools and itsable leadership did not hold its own last year,but had a loss in American Methodism offifty-six thousand members, and the onlything that saved this from being a net losswere the gains in the mission fields. I am

afraid' we have been fishing in rice fields witnpin hooks and angle worms and all the whileChrist has been saying to us: "Launch outinto the deep and' let down your nets."How pathetic! The world is yelling its

challenge into the ears of the church and thechurch stands hesitant and afraid. Look atthe challenge the world presents to thechurch in this strange, stupendous age ofours. There is the challenge of racial an

tagonisms. Who of us did not blush withshame recently as we read in the newspapershow a mob of infuriated men in Sherman,Texas, burned down the court house in orderto lynch a negro. That blush went into a

deeper dye when a day or two later we readin the papers that a London newspaper mantelephoned the governor of Texas and said:"Is this Governor Moody of Texas? Say isthis Sherman affair a common thing in yourstate?" Not only did they know about thatshameful affair in London, but clear aroundthe world from Kalamazoo to Timbuctoo.And everywhere, especially in heathen landsas they read the account they said, with bitter scorn, "and that's your Christianity?"There is the challenge of the spirit of

greed and hate and war. There is the challenge of narrow, selfish nationalism and internationalism. The Japanese immigationexclusion act, so foolishly enacted by our

Congress a few years ago, is a glaring exam

ple. Congress said to them, "You are yellow, we are going to shut you out." The Japanese are a proud people. That act amounted to waving a red flag in the face of theirpride and in the face of the pride of a thousand millions in the far East whose friendship we need and may sorely need some day.Whereas if Congress had put the Japanese on

the quota system along with other nations,less than a hundred and fiftv of them peryear could have come to our country. Without doubt many times that number are smuggled in every twelve months. Then there isthe challenge of paganism in business and industry, in literature, and social life. Howsorely our American business system needsChristianizing.Then there is the challenge of our present

day materialism, animalism, and sex licenseas set forth in modern behaviorism andtaught in many of our great colleges and

practiced more than taught. Then there isthe challenge of our bold and blatant selfishness, as illustrated by scofflawism on everyhand and the cry for personal liberty which,being interpreted, means the right to do as

you please, regardless of the rights of others.President Hoover was right when he calledAmerican prohibition "a noble experiment."If this noble experiment fails it will be our

confession to the world that we do not have

the moral and spiritual manhood to putthrough a great law, which is for the well-being of all the people. A real democracyis a state wherein each individual citizensacrifices his own desire for the common

good. If prohibition fails our democracyfails.Finally there is the tragic challenge of a

worldly, prayerless, ignorant church, ignorant I mean of the things a Christian oughtto know. Surely no one can deny the factthat in recent years a great flood of worldli-ness has rolled in upon the church. Nor canany honest man deny that we have multitudes of people in our churches who havenever been born again, who are strangers toany personal experience of God and whoknow next to nothing of a life of prayer andfellowship, consecration and service. Inshort our church is becoming slowly butsurely paganized, if putting material thingsfirst is paganism.I know of only one power sufficient to meet

this staggering challenge and that is thepower of God through the Holy Spirit�God's dynamos�God's dynamite.When the Christian Church was born on

that first Pentecost day it faced a far worsecondition than we face today. Slavery was

universal. A slave-master could chop hisslave into mincemeat under shelter of thelaw. Religion and prostitution went hand inhand. Groups of Roman matrons wentthrough the streets of Rome, nude, to wor

ship at the shrines of the pagan gods. Government was cruel and heartless and exploited the poor for the benefit of the rich. Materialism, animalism and egoism reigned su

preme.Into that old pagan world, seething with

selfishness and' sin, went that little group ofSpirit-filled men and women. They took theoffensive and you know how triumphantlythey swept through that ancient paganismlike prairie fire through the dry grass. Inthree centuries the Roman Empire was

kneeling at the cross of the Nazarene. Butremember before they went out they tarrieduntil they were filled with the Holy Ghost,which meant they were filled with God'spower.Isn't it strange that the modern church,

which is generally conceded to be prettymuch in the doldrums, is trying everythingunder the sun but the very one thing thatgave that early church its power and victory�the Holy Ghost?Here in my text we find Jesus on the eve

of his ascension giving his disciples thepromise of power adequate to all their needs."Ye shall receive power when the Holy Ghosthas come upon you." If Jesus were here inflesh today I haven't the slightest doubt buthe would say the very same thing to us andto our church. And yet we are trying everything else but the one thing Jesus declarednecessary and adequate. Do you know of asingle theological seminary in this world thathas a chair on Spiritual Dynamics where thewhole emphasis is put upon the Holy Ghost,his personality and work from that firstgreat Pentecost down to today?The sad and tragic fact is the modern

church knows almost nothing about the HolyGhost. The average church member is pitifully ignorant of him, his personality and hiswork. Oh, yes, I know we recite the Apostles' Creed in many of our churches everySunday morning and our people say: "I believe in the Holy Ghost," but how much content and real understanding is there in whatthey say? We are very severe in our condemnation of the Jews of the first centurybecause they rejected and ignored Jesus, buthave we not committed a greater sin in our

ignoring of th Holy Spirit? Is it not just asgreat a sin to ignore the Holy Spirit in thetwentieth century as it was to ignore Jesusin the first? Who dares say it is not.We make much of Christmas, the birth-

GLIMPSING NORTH CHINA.G. Arnold Hodgin.

OCX}OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCX3

N our itinerating through the

^WjjB/^ Orient, we had planned an evan-

\2^^^^ gelistic trip through the interior

i^^MS)A� of China. We had expected toK2^^-c^^ start somewhere around the

middle of April, from Shanghai,and work our way up through Nanking, toward Peking. This trip was to have beentaken in company with Dr. Mary Stone andMiss Jennie V. Hughes. Both Mrs. Hodginand I looked forward to it with high hopesand great anticipations for a splendid timeof soul saving, as well as a gracious season ofvisitation of mission stations. Our feelingsmay well be imagined, when word was re

ceived, that war and banditry had closed theway, and it was impossible to enter the interior of China at all. We took it as fromthe Lord, however, and let the matter rest,knowing that if he desired to open the way,he could do it.We had been praying over the situation

and we are now sure that prayer was ans

wered. A letter came from the interior, saying that we could possibly enter from thenorth, and thus reach some of the missionstations. The letter was an invitation tocome. Our objective was the Missions underthe National Holiness Association, and thoseof the Nazarene Church. The former we

were especially interested in, from the factof an organic relation to the National Holiness Association. The latter was from a

friendship of many years, with Rev. andMrs. Peter Keihn, who are in charge of theNazarene work. Now that our visit has beenconsummated, and we are out oi the northern interior of China safe, looking back uponthe happenings of those short days, we desireto note a few of our experiences, and some

of the things we saw and heard.Our entrance to the places in question was

from Tientsin. Here we took what was supposed to be a train. We knew we were on

the road where a good train had run in times

past. It was called the "Blue Express." Butwhen we tried to make arrangements fortrain travel, we found that not only was thetrain mentioned not running, but that everything in way of rolling stock, that was any

good at all, had been seized by the warringarmies for troop transportation and officesfor the military. The best we could possiblyget was a third class, and that meant a thirdclass which would not be allowed to run anywhere else except in China. But this was an

open door, and we entered, determined thatinconveniences should not deter us from going where we believed the blessed Masterwanted us to go.Merciful for us, one of the missionaries

had come down to Tientsin to meet us andtake us back. So we were greatly helped on

our way, by one who knew the route. Ourtravel was by night, but sleep was practicallyout of the question. One could not imaginemore uncomfortable seats. Then we were

-crowded in among the dirty, coughing, spitting, diseased Chinese of the lower class. Wewere able to keep one seat for ourselves bypiling the traveling bags around us. Therewas evil smelling tea to be had, and we were

able to buy roasted chickens for about tencents apiece. Do not ask me if the tea was

clean, or the chickens either. That is asidefrom the question. The tea was hot and thechickens tasted good, even so. And ,so we

passed the night, arriving at the end of our

railway journey in the early morning, at a

place called Techow. Here we had a goodbreakfast in the home of a missionary, andwere soon on our way in an automobile. Our

journey by auto was to be one hundred miles.We did not get away, however, before we

were well assured by a kind nurse in the

hospital of the American Board that we were

to be robbed, for robbers were operatingvery close by. We were thoroughly con

vinced that she was correct, and so we turned over to her, watches, camera, pocketbook,and portfolio, to keep safe for us upon our

return. Then we set forth. I had my faceall screwed up with a forced smile, withwhich to meet the robbers, who would at anymoment dart out from behind a hill or tree,and take the few dollars I had kept for theoccasion. It is difficult to tell just what effect that smile would have had upon a robber, provided I could have kept it throughthe robbing time. He might have run forcover, and he might have shot me out ofsheer fright or anger. We saw no robbers,either going or coming, so far as we know.I have never asked Mrs. Hodgin if she reallyfelt afraid that day. I have not desired toembarrass her ; for she has been most braveand never failed me anywhere on this wholetrip. Our roads were rough, sure enough,and we had a sand storm nearly all day, butthe overshadowing presence of the Lord was

our strength and stay.We arrived at the mission station of the

National Holiness Association at about fivein the afternoon, tired, sleepy, and coveredwith dirt and dust. Here we were greetedand welcomed by those faithful soldiers ofthe cross, and had a most precious time offellowship and mutual blessing with them.We found practically all of the missionar

ies of the National Holiness Association hereat this one station, that is Nanquantau. Theother stations were occupied and still are, byrobbers and soldiers. Those who had beenthere were now refugees, in this station,which we hope is practically safe for thetime being.Rev. C. W. Troxel and Rev. Woodford

Taylor, who are in charge of the work, gaveus a splendid welcome. With them and alsowith all the other missionaries we had precious fellowship. A meeting was in progress.We joined in with what service we were ableto render, and were permitted to witness, inthe midst of all those physical dangers, a

gracious outpouring of the Spirit, with a

goodly number seeking and finding God.There were definite testimonies to the regenerating and sanctifying power of Christ.A serious situation faces the missionaries

in this part of China. Other stations havebeen seized by robbers. Missionaries havehad to flee for their lives. There is fightingwithin ten miles of Nanquantau. Robbersare practically everywhere. Worse than thatfact, is the other, that a man may be a soldier today and a robber tomorrow. Thefighting war lords are not able to pay thesoldiers, at times, and they turn easily fromfighting for a cause which they neither un

derstand nor care to understand, to banditry.Women are not safe in this interior. Themissionaries are sending out their wives anddaughters to the coast cities, in order thatthey may be safe from robbery and a worse

fate.There is a feeling of foreboding and dan

gerous uncertainty in the air. No one knowswhat may take place any hour of the day or

night. Those who get to the coast citiesbreathe with a great relief and pray for a

speedy change of affairs in China.Will there be relief from this condition in

the near future? Who knows? The National Government is well entrenched, and has ahand upon the resources. The warring NorthChina has many men, much determination,and daring. There is a universal feeling inthe North that the only hope for China is a

speedy change of government officialdom. Inall this condition, and lurking even where itis not suspected by many, is the red element,fostered by agents of red Russia. Hate, rancour, and mercilessness are everywhere.Life, as it is in most of the eastern countries,is cheap. The sight of the dead body of aman excites little more disturbance than thatof a dog. We see these dead bodies tloatingaround in the rivers, and it is a common

thing. There is a strong feeling of dislikefor foreigners. In some places it is growing-or at least that is the opinion given us inconversations. In other places they tell usthe dislike is declining. No one knows, sono one dares to prophesy.But of one thing we are certain. In the

midst of all this turmoil, strife and bloodshed, men are seeking God, and finding himThere is a deep hunger for the peace and joyof salvation. As is always the case, whentroubles abound, and danger and death lurknear, the Christians have an ever increasingboldness and faith that dares and does, evenin the face of countless obstacles.Some one may ask, should not the mission

aries come home ? It seems to us that it ishardly the thing to desert the field now.Even should a few suffer martyrdom, itwould only enrich the soil for soul saving, asit did in the days of the early Church. It maybe that some may have to lose their lives forthat very thing. It would serve to win manyChinese to Christ. Of one thing we are sure;and that is the Chinese marvel at the beautiful fortitude of the holy men and womenwho have suffered. They admire this virtueand calm among the missionaries, and say,"This is real Christianity." They desire thatkind of religion.Surely China and the missionaries need the

prayers of all who pray. Let us not fail themnow. Let us spend some time upon thosewhom we have sent out, and hold them up inour intercessions, that there may be safetygranted, and that the work of soul savingmay not be permanently hindered.

The Bible in Public Schools.Statesmen with vision are free to say that

America owes many of the best of its idealsto a knowledge of the Bible, and to make itan outlaw in the curriculum and library ofour school system is not fair treatment ofthis great volume. Especially when after itis kept out every other kind of philosophyand history and text on ethics and law is admitted. For example, texts on biology are

lugged in that claim that man has a bruteancestry while the Bible with its history ofthe origin of man is thrown out.

Some of these theories taught in theschools come very near to being a religion,and a false religion at that, modernism, forexample. It claims to show man's origin,and by implication, his destiny, explains thepresence of sin as the relic of a primitvestate not fully outgrown, takes the miraclesout of history, and denies the fall and hencethe necessity for an atonement.Referring again to the recognition of the

Bible in education, an article in TKe Presbyterian of the South has the following to say:"It is interesting to note what is being

done in other countries. The National Boardof Education in Mexico has placed a Bible inevery school room and in every library inMexico. Japan has placed Bibles in all of itsschools. In this country Florida and Idahohave recently been added to the list of Stateswhich require the reading of the Bible intheir schools. It is said by those who haveinvestigated the subject that, in schoolswhere the Bible is read, the moral tone ofthe children is higher than it was in thesesame schools before the reading of the Biblewas begun."

GLEANINGS FROM THE EVANGELISTIC FIELDENROUTE FROM HAMHEUNG, KOREA TO

SHANGHAI, CHINA.Dear Friends of The Herald Family:As we sit on deck surrounded by the green hills

and peaceful waters of Nagasaki, and think over theoutstanding events of the last few hours, we feelmore than ever before the truth of God's word whenhe said,"They that seek the Lord shall not want any good

thing." And again, "For he that hath mercy uponthem shall lead them, even by the springs of watershall he guide them."The Keifuku Maru was casting her ties from the

dock at Fusan, Korea, when a Japanese seaman

came up and in broken English said, "Asbury Missionary Team?"_ We told him that he had guessedright, and he said, "I am Christian." After considerable effort at conversation and many signs we

learned that he was a member of the Japanese Holiness Church and had read of our coming in hischurch paper. In the afternoon he served us withbread and tea. This was an unexpected pleasurefor our third class accommodations provided no re

freshments. After we had enjoyed this offering he� invited us to spend the evening in his home at Shi-momoseki. There were five hours between train andboat and we were greatly in need of a friend to

guide us through depots, ferries, and ticket officesas we transferred from Shimomoseki to Moji andmade reservations on the night train for Nagasaki,so we gladly accepted his invitation.Our way led through the Japanese 'Licensed Quar

ter.' We passed house after house of ill fame in thishell of adultery. Here were rows of elaboratelypainted "love slaves" who tried to sell us their licentious wares. Here was the young man of Proverbs8 who "Goeth after her straightway as an ox goethto the slaughter." What a blot is this governmentsanctioned traffic upon the splendid progress of the

Japanese Nation. Let us unite our prayers that the

Spirit of Christ will be enthroned at the seat of authority until this national abomination is outlawed.We were glad when the odor of cosmetics faded

into the stench of open sewers and rotting waste.The way led into a narrow, crooked alley and we

stopped shortly before a little thatched cottage. Itwas so open that we could see without entering twoseven by ten rooms containing a chest for bedding,a charcoal jar, one three-foot square, ten inch hightable, and four cushions for guests to sit on. Therewere a few odd pieces of clothing hanging aroundthe wall and some sacks containing dried herbs sus

pended from the ceiling. In these two rooms the

family of six lived, ate and slept. Our hostess was

greatly surprised to see us. She was in a little openshed preparing the evening meal with one hand,while she held a nursing baby to her breast with the

other. We removed our shoes in this shed and

stepped up two feet into the main part of the house,where we got on our knees, bowed to the floor andsaid "Konichiwa," as we were introduced to the wifeand children.Someone requested music, so we sat on the tloor

and started a sacred concert. The neighbors gathered until the little house was filled with children.Their elders stood on the outside and looked on

through doors and windows. Many were Christiansas a result of this godly seaman's labor. They laughed or clapped their hands when we struck some fa

miliar tune. After an hour everyone was requestedto leave but the family. They then served us with

a most delicious meal called "Gyako Dombun,which translated into English means 'parent-childdish."- It is a mixture of chicken and eggs served

with rice. We ate with chop-sticks while still sit

ting on the floor, and our former congregation stood

around the house watching us. When we had finish

ed, all who could came in again for another concert.This time they sang some familiar choruses in their

own language. Two of these we had memorized and

they were highly amused when we tried to smg m

Japanese. This gathering was closed with prayer.

Many who were non-christian bowed m reverence as

we prayed for God to speak to their hearts.We bade them "Sayonara" feeling that true

friends were parting. Our meeting was only three

hours past but carried with us rich treasures ot

blessing and Christian fellowship. Regardless ol

race, nationality, or culture Christ had bound us so

closely together that the grace and happiness ot this

hour still linger. ^, ,� ,

Again we ask for your prayers that God may

guide us as we try to preach the gospel m China.

Greeting to you in the precious name of Jesus

Christ. -It is a beautiful Sunday morning, just be

fore my preaching at Sasatsuka, Tokyo, Japan.Brothers Erny, Grouse, and Kirkpatrick, of Asbury

College Missionary Team from Wilmore, Ky., came

there and I was very glad to meet them. I preachedand they sang hymns. Bro. Erny gave a short mes

sage for our believers; all hearts danced with joy by

their help. It was their first Sunday morning m

Japan. Japan Missionary Society and Asbury Col

lege Missionary Team are brothers, because both

wire born in Asbury College. Since I was in Asbury

they are my good friends. I have not seen them for

'Ve^held^two'^meetings at Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan,by Asbury Cdlege Misshionary Team. There is the

center of our field and is always bustling. Firstmeeting was started at 2 P. M., and many believersand un-christians came. Bro. Erny preached powerfully and I interpreted freely by the grace of God.We thank God for the Holy Ghost with us and eightsouls came to the altar for salvation and sanctifica-tion, and they were all blessed. One young ladycame to this meeting from Utsunomiya City, 70miles from Tokyo and was saved.We had our hymn march and about 40 of our

Christians in the main streets, and we held streetmeetings at two places. We are holding street meeting at same places two nights, but that night was

very good because A. C. M. Team was with us. Manypeople came in the meeting hall, and their band andsongs helped in the meeting. That night Bro. Kirkpatrick preached for the unbelievers and I interpreted for him. God used him greatly and eightsouls came to the altar and found Christ.We have regular weekly meetings at only seven

places, because the workers are still short. Please,you remember these great needs in your prayers.All our fields are real battle grounds, and hundredsof souls have surrendered to Christ. For the pasthalf year there has been an average of 47 souls atthe altar every month. Praise the Lord! In thatday when we meet around Jesus' feet there is goingto be a great crowd come in from Japan MissionarySociety.In this month 13 Christians were baptized at Shi

buya, Tokyo, Japan. I held many baptismal ser

vices, but never one like this where the spirit ofprayer and praise was so poured out upon the people. Those who had been baptized remained in themeeting for about an hour of prayers, praises andsongs. They helped the meeting with their testimonies. I explained to the strangers that they were

not drunk with wine, but filled with the Holy Ghost.At present our general fund for Japan is in great

need, and we trust that you will really get under theburden with us. Tell the Father, in Jesus all-prevailing name, that the J. M. S. needs money forrents, for taxes, for itinerant work, for postage, forstationery, for moving expenses for workers andvarious other incidentals.Japan Missionary Society sends regular reports to

supporters because we want our co-workers to knowwhat their money is doing. Just now we are in needof several supporters for faithful holiness preachers. Here is your opportunity to be represented in

Japan. If you are not able to undertake the wholesupport, any assistance on their monthly allowancewill be appreciated and will help to keep them

preaching Jesus and his uttermost salvation in theseripe harvest fields.

Your brother in Christ,Rev. J. K. Aita.

HISTORIC MT. VERNON.Love of country and the religion of Jehovah were

closely entwined under the old dispensation. Wewonder if true patriotism should be allowed to in

any wise diminish in the hearts and lives of God'speople today. There i^, at any rate, one sacred spotin America that seems from year to year to becomemore dear to the patriots of our land and which hasvital religious memories and mementoes also. Thisis the old farm home at Mt. Vernon, Va., with itsfine old colonial residence and other buildings preserved practically intact and furnished as in the

days of General Washington with the quaint equipment of Revolutionary days. On the hillside near

the residence and facing the beautiful PotomacRiver is the tomb of our great National hero.A few years ago the excursion steamer and trol

ley line from Washington and Alexandria brought a

few scattered tourists to and from this sacredshrine each day. With the coming of the automobileage and the building of modern highways of macadam and concrete through this portion of the OldDominion, pilgrimages to Mt. Vernon have increasedto as high as four thousand persons in a single day.Perhaps the daily visitors now exceed the annualvisitors of twenty-five years ago. Nearly every lib

erty-loving American who visits the National Capital today drives in his own car or takes a sightseeing bus to Mt. Vernon, fifteen miles distant, andstops in historic old Alexandria, midway between.Christ Church in that city is interesting as one ofthe places which Washington frequently visited andin which he bore office as a vestryman. Perhapseven more intimately associated with the religiouslife of the Father of his Country is Old PohickChurch with its restored pews and relics of the dayswhen Washington and George Mason attended itsservices. Many are the well-authenticated storiestold there of the faith, reverence and piety, of theman used of God more than any other to fashion theinstitutions and ideals of this great land of ours.On a tract of land near the West Lodge Gate and

formerly a part of the estate, a spiritual memorialhas been erected to the memory of another hero, a

hero of faith. There Rev. H. B. Hosley, then pastorof the Wesleyan Pentecostal Church in Washington,D. C., and aggressive leader of righteousness and

true holiness, known and loved by many whose lives

he had blessed from Maine to California, soughtrest in a summer cottage. But his untiring energy

and zeal for Christ and his church turned this home

into a center of evangelistic activity. Eighteenyears ago a camp meeting was established here and

the work has been expanding and developing since.The frail body of its founder sleeps in a family burial plot on the grounds but his spirit actuates theconduct of the camp as when he prayed, preachedand labored with his hands, to bring into reality hisvisions of a great life saving station and holinesscenter near the National Capital.The camp has been blessed with the ministrations

of many great religious leaders, among whom wemention H. C. Morrison, Will Huff, Bud Robinson,Joseph Smith and C. W. Ruth. No false or uncertain sound has ever gone forth so far as we know,A new tabernacle was dedicated last year. This yeara new lighting plant is expected to be installed. Them.antle of the founder now rests upon his daughter.The ideals remain unchanged, vital godliness exem

plified in the life and preached from the pulpit. IfMt. Vernon Camp Meeting continues to stand forrighteousness and true holiness, aggressively proclaimed and free from fanaticism, frills and fancies,there is no reason to doubt that it vrill hold its placeas one of the great centers from which shines un-dimmed the light and liberty of the gospel. Wepray that it may be so and that as Mt. Vernon growsmore and more dear to the patriot, the camp meeting which stands on 'its sacred ground may increaseand grow more hallowed as a soul-saving stationand rallying point for God's hosts.

SPLENDID MEETINGS.It has been sometime since I wrote you concern

ing the meetings we have been privileged to conduct. We started the year with a great three-weeks'revival at North Vernon, Ind., with the pastor of theNazarene Church, a saved and sanctified Jew, Rev.Samuel Thomas. Bro. Thomas held the meetingthat got the church organized. We had a fine meeting which was in reality a revival. The devil wasstirred and people confessed to God and one anotherand got good salvation. Some members were addedto the church.Next we held a ten-days' meetings with Rev. Har

ry Long, Jr., pastor at Charlestown, Ind. God gaveus a soul-saving revival in which upwards of a hundred found God. The last night we took 17 into theChurch of the Nazarene. The next Saturday Rev.Quinn organized with twenty-nine members.Next we held a good meeting at Eden, Ohio, Naz

arene Church. This was a stirring meeting whichset the church ablaze for souls. The church had no

pastor. We came to Montezuma, Ind., in the South-side Church, Rev. A. W. Lowe, pastor. He has beenhere for seven years and the people still want him.We had a blessed meeting and many saved and sanctified.Next we opened a home mission campaign at Sel-

lersburg, Ind., but after three days I was calledhome on account of sickness.Our next meeting was with Rev. E. L. Hess, Supt.

Union Gospel Mission, Roanoke, Va. We had acrowded house and many sought salvation. Thework was greatly strengthened and holiness advanced. From Roanoke, we went to Richmond, Va.and opened a ten-days' meeting in Everybody's Mission, Rev. A. L. Ford, Supt. After a few days ofhard preaching, the last Sunday we had altar andfront benches full of hungry seekers.From Richmond, we came to Jeffersonville, Ind.,

in the First Church of the Nazarene, Rev. McDonald,pastor. We fought demons for two weeks, however,during this time we had many fine altar scenes inwhich souls found pardon and sanctification.Our next meeting was a tent campaign in Ravens-

wood, W. Va. We were opposed by preachers andholiness fighters from the start, but God gave ussome warm friends of the M. E. Church who stoodby us and we had a fine meeting with many seekersand finders and left in that fine little town a holinessprayer meeting to keep ablaze the cause of holiness.We came from Ravenswood and opened a four-

weeks' campaign in a big holiness tent in Fort Madison, la. After three weeks God has given us someseekers and good altar services, but Iowa seems tobe another hard state to spread and organize scriptural holiness in, however, we believe God will giveus some sanctified people who will want a good holiness church here before we leave. I am happy onthe way. I would be glad to help any pastor in anold-fashioned revival for entertainment and freewill offering. My new home address is Chesapeake,Ohio. Pray for souls and me.

very lonely, look dovs^n the road and say toeach other, "I do wish Pa and Ma wouldcome home." How empty the house appears !How strange the place seems! They are

quite through and done with the idea of theenjoyment of their larger liberty because ofthe absence of their parents. When they appear they race with all speed possible to

greet them. They climb onto the runningboard of the car and tumble, head and heels,to be embraced and kissed. The house becomes home again, order takes the place ofchaos and there is great joy.May it not be that the modern liberalists,

card-playing, dancing church members, theSabbath desecraters and prayer-meetingneglecters, have grieved the Holy Trinityaway! Isn't there a sense of emptiness anddesolation in the very atmosphere ! A sense

of spiritual orphanage! Oh, that God the

Father, Christ the Redeemer, and the HolyGhost the Comforter, would come back tothe church with great power ! That the people could rejoice under the benign influenceof heavenly blessing and consciousness of thedivine presence. Oh, that revivals broke out,the church revived, sinners saved, believerssanctified, and the kingdom of God wouldcome among men !The humble, devout soul may enjoy the

baptism and abiding of the Holy Spirit, buthuman beings are social beings. The mostdevout Christian longs for Christian fellow

ship ; he wants a spiritual atmosphere in hischurch where he goes to worship. There issuch a thing as sitting in the sanctuary on

Sabbath morning in the midst of spiritualdesolation where the child of God feels no

spiritual kinship. The music is as soundingbrass and a tinkling cymbal ; nothing of divine power and sanctified human sympathy.Something has gone wrong!We believe that modernistic teaching in

religious literature, from pulpit, summer

schools, Sunday school training schools has

grieved the Holy Spirit and drugged the human spirit, perhaps a sort of sleeping sick

ness, a lack of receptiveness, a dangerousdeafness when the merciful Master knocksat the door.There will have to be repentance. There

must be courageous protest and rebellion

against the apostles of doubt. The men

who have attacked and ridiculed the vital

doctrines of the Holy Scriptures, once so precious to the church, must be uncovered andexposed ; the strange gods which have creptinto the church and been enthroned, must beseized upon and hurled away with a righteous indignation. If this work cannot bedone in the magnificent structures whereidols are worshipped, we must get into tents,brush arbors, rented halls, and sing and prayand be baptized with the Holy Spirit, andshout, and go out with a torch of spiritualfire, visit the homes of the people, pray withthe families, preach the gospel, build tabernacles, and bring back the power of heaveninto the desolate hearts of the people.There is a remedy, and we must arouse

ourselves, take to our knees, and go topreaching, exhorting-, singing, praying,praising, and thus revive the Holiness Movement. Let's put ourselves with all we areand have under the power and guidance ofthe Holy Ghost, and again, we shall see theholy flame of revival fire burning throughoutthe nation.

A Word to our Kentucky Preachers.My dear Brethren:The Central Holiness Camp Meeting began

July 24, and closes on the evening of August3. Make your arrangements to attend everyday possible. It is your habit, usually, tocome after the first Sabbath and remainthrough the week. We shall look for you,and expect a gracious time. Do not fail tobe with us. Announce the camp from yourpulpit and encourage your people to attendthe meeting. It will do them good. If thereever was a time when we needed to get together and unite our prayers for the baptismwith the Holy Ghost, that time is now. Donot fail to come. H. C. Morrison.

The Army of the Lord.I have always had faith in that great ar

my of plain folk who have faith in God, whoare not ashamed of the full salvation ofChrist; who have positive convictions andholy enthusiasm in their hearts. If I can

get that army interested in the need of thisSeminary enterprise, if these dear souls canbecome enthused on this subject, we shallwin a victory for the spread of scriptural holiness that will send its beams of salvationlight throughout this nation and around theworld.It is not a question of people of great

wealth ; such people no doubt have great opportunities and large responsibilities, andhow grateful we should be for the assistanceof such persons; but at this time it is a matter of getting the humble, zealous children ofGod who devoutly love our Lord and rejoicein the full salvation he bought on the cross, Isay, if I can get them interested and enthusiastic to do what they can for this greatwork of building up a full salvation Seminary for the training of young ministers togo out radiant with holy joy to preach fullsalvation in Christ, our victory is won, andthe good work will go forward and, pleaseGod, I may yet live to see the school forwhich I long, an established fact.Will you join us in prayer to God, and an

earnest talk with your nreighbor. Can we

not awaken a holy enthusiasm on this greatneed of a well educated. Spirit-filled ministrywho shall go forth with the message of fullredemption from all sin? The common people heard Christ gladly; from among themhe chose his disciples. The common peoplemade up that great army of early Methodists whose singing and shouting awoke oldEngland to the greatest revival since the dayof Pentecost.Among the humble folk God has kindled

the fires of the Holiness Movement that havespread and warmed with full salvation, morethan a million of immortal souls. Oh, yehumble people of the Lord, no one of whomcan give largely, will you not become glad ofan opportunity to do what you can to buildup a Theological Seminary to send forth an

army of full salvation preachers ? God lovesthose people of moderate means, loyal soulswho gladly do what they can for the spreadof a full salvation gospel, who by faith, standupon the mountaintop of his glorious promises, ever facing toward the golden dawn ofa glad day when Christ shall reign withpeace among men, and God shall be glorified.I make this appeal to God's humble folk

who can give $10.00, $5.00 and $1.00 peryear flor five years, for one of the most important works for which they can pray andgive, in order that the blessed Christ, who isable to save to the uttermost, may be preached to all the world. The larger gifts will bemost welcome. According to your abilityhelp us to build. Sign the blank at the lowercorner of the ninth page and send to H. C.Morrison, Box 592, Louisville, Ky.

Ho! For Indian Springs!The Indian Spring camp meeting begins

Thursday, August 7 and closes on the evening of August 17. There is something aboutthis dear old camp different from anythingelse we have ever known on the earth. All ofthe holiness camps are good ; each one has itsspecial distinction, but this camp has something about it that I cannot define, that ismost blessed. Do not fail to be there. Praybefore coming, pray on your way there andpray after you get there, that God may grantus a wonderful outpouring of his Holy Spirit.I missed this camp last year because of illness, but I am looking forward with greatpleasure to being present at this camp. Letus look to God with earnest longing, prayerand faith for a wonderful visitation of theHoly Ghost. H. C. Morrison.


A Word to The Discouraged.Mrs. H. C. Morrison.


a^^^^ ISCOURAGEMENT is one of the

i^mtKb powerful weapons of theenemy of our souls. If Satan can

flaa^BP^I discourage us, then lead us on

ShC^^^^ to the point of "giving up," thatis all he cares for. Anything to

to get us to quit the job of soul-winning ishis plan.He tried this method on Job, but glorious

ly failed. The more he haunted Job withsuggestions and discouragement the louderthe old patriarch shouted in Satan's face,"Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him."It is ours to "never give up," no matter whatthe difficulties to be encountered, the steepsto be climbed, and the valleys through whichwe may be called to pass. Keep your seat onthe salvation train of trust and after whilethe end of the tunnel will be seen and youwill find yourself in the sunlight of triumphant deliverance.This article was suggested by a story I

read not long since which gives a very striking illustration of how a discouraged preacher was cured of his despondency. I think itwill be a wholesome tonic for our readerswho may be tortured with the temptation tobecome discouraged, especially preachers andChristian workers who often wonder if, afterall, they are doing anything worth while inthe Kingdom of God. It is as follows:

WHEN A PREACHER WAS DISCOURAGED."There was once an English preacher on

his way to a little country church to fulfil anengagement to preach, and he stopped andtied his pony by a little country inn on theway. He went in and lay down to rest. Hewas much discouraged. He was a target forabuse and misrepresentation. He was un

popular and the gospel he was preaching was

despised."As he lay down he felt so weary that he

wished his work was ended. He fell asleepand dreamed that he had been going to a little village church to preach and had stoppedat a little inn to rest, and had lain down


upon a couch in his chamber, wishing thathe might die, and that he did die."In his dream he was borne up by the an

gels in the air, to the land of glory, and as

they lifted him up he was borne in and seated in a waiting room resplendent like a palace, where he was told to wait a few mo

ments until the Master himself should come

to meet him."As he waited for his Lord to appear he

began looking around the temple upon thetapestries that so richly hung upon the walls,and as he gazed upon th'em he thought herecognized in the beautiful surrounds a picture of his own life."He could see his birth, his infancy, his

childhood, his early manhood, his fallingsand restorations, his toils and services toChrist, the souls he had won, the sermons hehad preached, all the places he had visitedand all the wonderful outcomings of thesethings reaching away into issues that he hadnever dreamed of. And as the meaning ofhis life opened out in all this glorious blessing, his heart was thrilled with wonder, un

til at last he came to the close, and he saw

the room in which he was lying, dead, andthe little pony by the door, and longed to beback again on the way to the little villagechurch for the preacher ; and then the greatunfinished work; and the wonderful possibilities that might have been."Then his heart became filled with sorrow

and he wished that he had not died, and longed to be back again on the little pony, on theway to the little country church, and as he

wept, he suddenly awoke. And lo ! he was

lying on the little sofa and the little ponywas standing at the door. He got down on

his knees and thanked God that he was stillalive. He went on to labor and to wait withnew courage and new hope until the workwas all finished, and the hour at last camewhen he, the blessed Richard Baxter, enteredinto "the saint's everlasting rest," of whichhe had so often spoken."Beloved, the pages are going up every day

with the record of our life. We are settingthe type ourselves by every moment's action.Hands unseen are stereotyping the plates,and soon the record will be registered andread before the audience of the universe, andamid the issues of eternity."

The Beacon Lights of Faith.Dr. C. F. Wimberly has been said to wield

the facile pen of a ready writer. We havecome to believe that he has a box of pens.He is a great reader ; his memory is storedwith a vast amount of valuable information.Beside this, he is a thinker ; he meditates, heponders ; he brings out of his own resources,

things new and old. He has written and published a stack of books, all readable and helpful. His books have had an immense sale.Within the past few months he has had published two books, the first, "The Beacon

lights of Faith," which is a handsome volume. In it he introduces to us in most attractive fashion, a long line of God's men

who have been called and equipped to keepthe beacon lights burning along the shores oftime to guide life's mariners safely againstthe rocks and shoals, and bring them intothe channels of truth and peace and eternalvictory and blessing. This book contains information that every Christian ought to

have. It should be in every home. It is en

tertaining and instructive in a high degree.No preacher can afford to be without it. It

Will spice and illuminate his sermons. Bythe way, if you have a pastor that can't

preach hardly at all, buy this book and makehim a present of it. Ask him to read it care

fully and give something of the message it

carries in his Sunday morning discourse.The second book of these two volumes is

"Modern Apostles of Faith," which is very

interesting. He undertakes to show that God

always has earnest, fearless witnesses of the

truth who are not living for themselves but

for others and who gladly proclaim our

Christ mighty to save to the uttermost.These books can be had of The PentecostalPublishing Company for $1.50 each. Sendfor them. Read them and pass them on.

THE HOLY SPIRIT AND POWER.(Continued from page 5)

day of our Lord, and of Easter, the resur

rection of our Lord, but how littte attentionwe have paid to Whit-Sunday, the birthdayof the church, the day of the first great Pentecost when that primitive church was filledwith the Holy Ghost and endued with God'spower for- the work of the Kingdom. Dr. E.Stanley Jones calls Pentecost the lost chordin the church, and who dares say he is notright?This last summer I had a letter from a

minister in one of our great conferences inthe middle states asking me if I would come

and give the evangelistic address at theirconference session which was to be held inhis church. A few days later I had a letterfrom one of the leading men in the conference welcoming me and assuring me of hisprayers for my work with them. He said:"We do need a real Pentecost here in our

conference. Not that we are worse than others, but some of us at least are aware of ourgreat lack of spiritual experience." One ofthe young preachers said to me, "If a man

should come to me and ask me to pray forhim I would not know how to do it." Another said, ""I was unable to pray for a dyingboy. I have lost the art." So many of ourministers are without the power essential totell captivatingly the gospel story.

Some months ago. Dr. Shoemaker read a

paper before the New York preachers' meeting in which he related this incident: "Afellow in great moral need came to me some

time ago. I found the only tie he had withreligion was his love for a well known minister, to whose church he occasionally wentand with whom he sometimes talked. Hecoughed up his real trouble finally and Iasked him why he had never told his minister about it, he said: "Well, you just don'ttell Dr. about such things. He isawfully interesting to listen to, but hewouldn't understand things like this."In the face of a condition like this ; in the

face of a serious loss in the prestige and influence of the church ; in the face of a continuous slumping in our missionary giving; inthe face of widespread worldliness in thechurch so that it is very difficult to tell a

Christian from a non-Christian; in the faceof the fact that we have multitudes of Methodists and Protestants who have never beenconverted ; in the face of the fact that we findit increasingly difficult to hold our youngpeople in line, especially our college young

people ; in the face of the fact that the churchis barely holding its own and hardly makinga dent on our present day life�in the face ofthese conditions is it not true that our greatest need is not another Pentecost? Not a

celebration of an historical event, but a

mighty baptism with the same Holy Spiritthat gave birth to the Christian Church.We Methodists have lost the sp'iritual pas

sion of the Wesleys and the Asburys. Thereis no use in our denying it. It is evident toall. Neither is there any use in our whitewashing and sentimentalizing. We had as

well admit the fact that we are losing our

genius as a converting church. "Hold on

there now preacher, don't get rash. Whatproof do you offer for that statement?""Proof!" "The church is filled with uncon

verted people !"It looks as though God were about to with

draw the Shekinah of spiritual power andleadership from us and give to some other.What are we going to do about it? Just cele-bate the nineteen hundredth anniversary ofPentecost with talk, programs and pageantsor will we, like Christ's disciples of old, tarryuntil we, too, get our great divine baptism,empowering us as a church to meet the crying challenge of our day.

Oh ! my brothers, as the scientists are discovering and appropriating the vast re

sources of nature, let us discover and appropriate the vast spiritual resources in Christfor us and take the offensive for God."My Father is more willing to give the

Holy Spirit to them that ask him than youare to give good gifts to your children."

A Gem of Scientific Information.Now, as never before it behooves those

who stand for righteousness and sobriety tokeep themselves well informed as to thehurtful effects of alcohol upon the humanrace. The Prohibition age does not lessenthe need of such information. "Alcohol andthe Human Race," by Richmond PearsonHobson, is a product of ten years' study bythis capable man. He has gathered up allthat has been discovered about the effect ofalcohol upon the human body and mind andits effect upon society and nations.If you want to intelligently present the

harmful effects to a Sunday School class ofyoung men, order a copy ; if you want to indelibly impress upon the minds of people,young and old, on any occasion, the deadlyeffects of alcohol, order a- copy for 25c, or5 copies for $1.00, and hand them out. Thefacts are presented with such convincingpower that any one will read it with profit.


Tarry Ye !Here is a most interesting volume edited

by Rev. L. R. Akers, President of AsburyCollege. He has published this book at thistime for a part of the pentecostal literature,which is now having a wide reading. Thebook contains sermons on various phases ofthe doctrine of full salvation, laying specialemphasis upon the baptism with the HolyGhost. It contains fourteen sermons by thefollowing writers: Joseph H. Smith, Clarence True Wilson, G. A. McLaughlin, John L.Brasher, Bishop Arthur J. Moore, John F.Owen, C. F. Wimberly, Guy L. Wilson, Mrs.Iva D. Vennard, C. W. Butler, Joseph Owen,John Paul, L. R. Akers and H. C. Morrison.The price of the book is $1.00. Any profitsderived from it goes for the benefit of theological students in Asbury College. It is avaluable book and ought to have an immensesale and careful reading. It covers a widerealm of gospel truth. Send to The Pentecostal Publishing Co., get the book, read it andlend it to your neighbors.


Realizing the great need of a divinely-called, educated. Spirit-filled ministry to proclaim a full salvation, I hereby pledge myself to give to Asbury Theological Seminarythe sum of each year for five years, money payable September 1. Lqcase of my death, or for any reason, I am unable to meet this pledge, my family or estateis not responsible for this pledge.

OUR BOYS AND GIRLS

A GROTTO.Children, did you ever see a Grot

to? There is one at Dickeyville, Wis.,and many tourists visit it daily,spending hours admiring its loftydomes and lovely colorful effect. It isso full of bright colors and delicatedesigns you would think it made offlowers instead of rock and cement.It is in a Catholic church yard, andbuilt by a priest who has spent fiveyears at it, and is still building new

designs in the same yard. Besides themany colored rocks and cement, he

puts many things into it which people give for the purpose,�thousandsof pieces of colored glass, china dolls,toys, glass and china birds, cows,

dogs, sheep, kittens, all held togetherin concrete. Nice walks wind about,along which are imitations of flowersstrung on iron rods like a little flower fence, but all made of tiny rocksand bits of glass in concrete. The mainGrotto is perhaps 30 feet high, ovalat top, open in front; deep within itsrecesses are images or statues, beautiful colorful designs, Bible quotations in letters of rocks, above all a

wonderful statue of Christ. TheGrotto cost years of patient toil, andmuch money. But what is it for ? The

priest says he is building it as a mon

ument to his memory: it surely isbeautiful and will keep him in mem

ory for centuries. But children, eachof us is building a monument thattakes a life-time to finish, and thatwill last long after grottoes andEgyptian pyramids have crumbled into dust. It is our soul-monument,called character, built of words, deeds,purposes, thoughts, none of which are

lost, but all are built into our own

selves. The priest has used great carein selecting his building materialtaking only what would endure, andbe most beautiful in appearance. Wetoo, must choose the best thoughts,sweetest songs, lovliest deeds, for our

soul-monument, for it must be beautiful for God to see, and will last forever. Of such, Jesiis says, "Arid theyshall never perish." Children whoread this, write me a card.

Rachel I. Avery.Rt. 1, Adrian, Ga.

Dear Aunt Bettie: As I read pageten from week to week, I just wonderif there isn't more we can do for our

boys and girls. Last summer our pastor announced that a revival wouldbegin on a certain date. My Sundayschool class, which consisted of 20boys and girls 12 to 15 years of age,flashed in mind; something said "Nowis your time." I began to pray forthe Lord to convert each member before a year had passed; they haveall professed but three. When theLord began to answer my prayers Ibegan to pray for the Lord to showme how I could help them to live a

successful Christian life. I think our

great mistake is when our boys andgirls are converted they are left todrift along in an aimless way untilthey lose their experiences altogether.I organized a Happy Band Club andinvited all of the boys and girls whowere Christians or who wished to be,to join. The ages were 10 to 16 years.The Lord is blessing us and we now

have 36 members. We meet once eachmonth. I make out all the programswhile the boys and girls take everything in hand when we meet. Theysometimes lead the mid-week prayermeeting, all taking a part. There is a

great work to be done among our

young people if we will only take thetrouble. If we don't take the troublewho will? Maybe you think you are

too busy, but I'm sure you can't bemuch busier than I. I am also a

mother of nine children, all underseventeen years of age. I am prayingthat the Lord will put it in the mindsof more Christian young people to domore to help the boys and girls tolive a Christian life, not to stop butkeep pressing forward to higherthings. May our prayer ever be,"Lord, plant my feet on higherground."

REQUEST FOR PRAYER.

Please pray that we may have_ a

real revival at the Smyrna MethodistChurch in Carroll Co., Ga. The meeting begins the first Sunday in August.

PRAY ONE FOR ANOTHER.Jas. 5:16.

We will be glad to hear at any timefrom the incurable sick, and thosepassing through fiery trials and deepest sorrow, who would like unitedprayer. Only ones with desperatecases need write, as our days are filledto overflowing. Enclose stamp for ap

propriate tract.�Leila M. Conway,Hurlock, Maryland.


THE OPPORTUNITY IS SWIFTLY PASSINGDon't let it go by without your having placed THE HERALD in some home. It

may be the means of salvation to the entire household.

Eyery soul, some time, somewhere, longs to know God, and this may be your opportunity to help some one into a saving knowledge of Him. We have known instances where persons were not approachable in the interest of their souls, but theHoly Spirit has spoken to them in the quiet of the reading hour.

We pass this way but once, so let's make our time and efforts count for God andsouls. Try to induce some one to subscribe on the special 50c offer till January. Invest 50c of the Lord's money and send the paper to some one ; then pray God to blessthe message THE HERALD carries to the good of that soul.

Dear HERALD readers, what we do must be done quickly. The special subscription period is rapidly slipping away, souls are passing into eternity, many of them lost,and it behooves us to get desperately in earnest to offer the Bread of Life to as many aswill receive it.

Think NOW of some loved one or friend who needs soul food, and either askthem to subscribe or send them the paper until January. Seemingly small things countfor much in the service of the King.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSONREV. O. G. MINGLEDORFF, D.p.

Lesson VI.�August 10, 1930.

Subject.�Hannah. 1 Sam. 1:9-18;1:24-28; 2:19.Golden Text.�My son. Hear the

Instruction of thy father, and forsakenot the law of thy mother. Prov. 1, 8.

Time.�About B. C. 1150.

Places.�Ramah and Shiloh.

Introductiort.�Permit me to quotehere from the "Methodist Advanced

Quarterly." "We note that when

a man was needed who combined the

spirit of prophecy with a genius for

affairs in meeting that need God be

gan with a good home, a prayingmother, and a baby boy. He is al

ways patient, and he works throughhuman agencies and by successive

stages."The needs were both ecclesiastical

and political. The human possibilities for the necessary qualities of

leadership in one man were in one

religious home, a childless wife andher devout husband. How true it isthat the home is the nursery of progress, and that reforms move forward on the feet of little children.The biggest, best job to which God

ever called a woman is motherhood. She may serve God andher generation in certain avoca

tions, but the home is her vocation.

Whatever militates against that calling, militates against woman's best

interests and cripples the nation to

which she belongs�and, in some

measure, the world. I am making a

broad statement, but I shall stand byit. All honor to the woman who sac

rifices the opportunities and joys of

a home in order to serve humanity in

some other sphere; but, unless prov

identially hindered, no woman doesher noblest work, unless she leaves to

the world some good, well trainedchildren to bless men after she goes

to her long home.America needs Christian homes.

The entire world needs them. I am

not much for boarding, or for livingin an apartment. Every hen should

have her own nest and her own coop.There should be some way to forever

kill the renting business. We need

sorely to reduce our taxes, especiallyin cities and towns. The rate is so

high in some places that it is burdensome to own a good home; and the

persons who own houses for rent are

forced to spend just as little as possible for repairs, in order to realize any

profit on their investments. All this

militates against the home-life of our

people. It should be remedied; for no

people can rise above the quality ofits homeis.Hannah's chance in life was poor

from the home standpoint. Her hus

band, Elkanah, was a good man; but

they lived in the days of polygamy,and there was another wife, Penin-

nah, in the home. She bore children,but Hannah was childless. This was

a sore trial to a Jewish woman; and

to make the matter still worse, Pe-

ninnah, "her adversary also provokedher sore, for to make her fret," be

cause she was cihildless. We can

hardly understand this in an age

when many married couples count

themselves fortunate if they have no

children. The man who told the vn-i-

ter that there was one child, but fiveaccidents, in his home, spoke a whole

book on the subject of modem mar

riage. If children are not wanted,

they are not likely to be well trainedwhen born by accident.The need is so urgent that I must

not suffer the opportunity to passwithout striking a blow at that formof polygamy that arises from the

marrying of divorced persons. Thisis undoubtedly about the worst formof adultery that we have among us.

Of course it is legalized; but thatdoes not render the sin any less heinous. Adultery under sudden and se

vere temptation is damnable in God'ssight; but there are no words strongenough, or nasty enough, to describethe legalized adultery of married peo

ple who have been divorced with no

scriptural reason therefor. I wouldGod that I knew how to hit this infernal thing sufficiently hard to makethe blush of shame come to thedheeks of those who are guilty. Theyare a disgrace to a decent civilization,and especially to the Church of Al

mighty God.I must state that this does not ap

ply to the case of Elkanah and Hannah. They lived at a time when God

permitted men to have more than one

wife; but such is not the ease now.

The world has moved forward some

what. We are living in the light ofthe New Testament. Our civilizationhas been built upon that foundation.Nor must we permit unbelievers to

destroy that foundation. This battlemust be fought out till victory is won

for righteousness. Otherwise this na

tion will rot to its death at the heart,as ancient Rome did.

Comments on the Lesson.9. Hannah rose up after they had

eaten.�This was hardly an ordinarymeal, but some sort of a religiousfeast. She left the family, and en

tered the tabernacle. Eli, sitting inhis accustomed place, observed heras she went in.

10. She was in bitterness of soul.�"Man shall not live by breadalone." Hannah's soul was hungryfor w'hat meant more to her thanbread and meat. Perhaps Peninnahhad been saying some unkind thingsat the meal-time. Hannah's heartwas filled with grief; so she "prayedunto the LORD, and wept sore." I repeat, we cannot understand this ful

ly, because we cannot realize what a

bitter trial barrenness was to a Jewish woman.

11. Let us read Hannah's vow, forit contains the burden of her prayer."0 LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeedlook on the affliction of thine hand

maid, and remember me, and not for

get thine handmaid, but will give un

to thine handmaid a man child, thenI will give him unto the LORD allthe days of his life, and there shallno razor come upon his head." Hannah was no ordinary woman. The

sweep and dignity of that prayer, or

vow, mark her superiority. Her soulwas big enough to talk to God with

becoming reverence. The fact that norazor should ever come upon his headmarks him as a Nazarite.

12. Eli marked her mouth.�Henoticed that her lips were moving,but could not hear what she was say

ing, as she was praying in a whis

per.13. Eli thought she had been

drunken.�Thought she was drunk.That may have been a natural conclu

sion, as his two sons, Hophni and

Phinehas, were very dissQl.uite young-

priests who were attracting to the

temple a certain class of very loose

women. Their conduct had become

disgraceful�so much so that theyhad brought the services of the tem

ple into ill repute.14. How long wilt thou be drunk

en? put away thy wine from thee.�

Some would have us believe that the

wine used among the ancient Jewswas very harmless; but this misdirected reproof from Eli shows that it

-could produce disgraceful drunkenness. Eli's work would have been

better, had he restrained his sons

from drunkenness and other direfulsins.

15. No, my lord.�Lord here hasabout the sense of our American wordSir. Hannah makes haste to denyEli's charge. She had not been drink

ing either wine or strong drink. Iam not quite sure that we understand exactly what is meant here bystrong drink; but evidently it was

something stronger than common

wine. Hannah was of a sorrowful

spirit, and was pouring out her soulbefore Jehovah.

16. Count not thine handmaid fora daughter of Belial.�That term was

descriptive of the very worst sort offallen woman. Hannah would makeknown the fact that she did not be

long to that class, but that she was

praying.17. Go in peace.�Eli saw his mis

take, and remedied it at once. I donot suppose that Samuel was born inanswer to Eli's prayer, but in answer

to Hannah's. I fear Eli was not liv

ing on what some good people term

"praying ground."18. Let thine handmaid find grace

in thy sight.�Keep on praying for

me, and wishing me well. Did eat,and her countenance was no more

sad.�Here is a demonstration of realfaith. See Mark 11:24. Her prayerwas answered. Jehovah would giveher a man child, as she desired.

24. When she had weaned him.�

Scholars differ as to the age of Samuel at this time. According to thebest information obtainable, Jewishmothers weaned their children atabout three years of age. It is hard

ly probable that Samuel was placedin the tabernacle younger than that.Even at that tender age he must havebeen a very precocious child. This

twenty-fourth verse gives the thingsthat were brought as an offering to

the Lord when they dedicated theirson to the divine service for his en

tire lifetime.25. Brought the child to Eli.�

That was proper. It was a demonstration that God had answered the

cry of Hannah's heart, and now shewas come to fulfill her part of thevow made to God some years before.During the years of Samuel's infancyshe had not been attending the year

ly worship at the temple, but remained at home to rear and train the boyfor the service of Jehovah to whichshe was determined to dedicate him.

27. For this child I prayed.�Per

haps Eli remembered her as the wo

man who had prayed so earnestly fora man child, and maybe he had for

gotten;, but she calls his attention tothe matter, and declares that Jehovahhad answered her petition.

28. I have lent him to the LORD.�There is a fine touch in that. Themother heart would keep an eye on

the boy. She was making a loan thatwas to last for the balance of the

boy's life. It means no little for a

child to know that from its birth itwas dedicated to God. Little Samuelmust have been well trained; for "he

worshipped the LORD there." Thealienists say that when a little childshows no appreciation of money, nor

any sense of worship, it is an idiot.Samuel had good sense.

19. His mother made him a littlecoat.�Now, just dig into that, if youcan. There is a touch of mother loveas sweet as heaven. Every yearmother and father went to see thelittle darling, and always carried hima new coat. The temple people couldhave bought one; but it would never

have been like the one that mothermade for him with her own fingers.Thank God for these little touches ofheaven that one meets here and thereon the highway of life.

FALLEN ASLEEP

CASSELS.Know ye that there is a prince and

a great man fallen this day in Israel.In the death of John F. Cassels

which occurred at his home at Glos-ter, Miss., on June 2, at the age of.78, an eventful and remarkably fruitful life was brought to a happy consummation. His residence continuedin the section of his nativity, but hisprolific activities, through generousgiving and channels of other lives,extended to earth's remotest gounds.Nature richly endowed him. Al

though not adorned with academicdegrees, his wide reading, the incessant reaching after valuable knowledge, the intimate association withgreat minds in life and in literaturerendered him a most versatile character. He was equally poised in legislative assemblies, in solving churchproblems with highest ecclesiastics or

instructing the penitent at the altarof grace.His wise counsel was sought alike

by jurist and peasant and he was rec

ognized as a peace-maker betweenlitigants and disputants. On an occasion when conditions in his residentcounty were in a chaotic and seriouscondition and the courts were unableto handle the situation, the presidingjudge quieted the mob-like throngand called for prayer by John Cassels. That impassioned pleading withthe Almighty marked an epoch in thehistory of the section. When theamen was said the indictments were

quashed, court was adjourned and thepeople returned thoughtfully to theirhomes minded to be better citizens.Brother Cassels' religious activi

ties were productive of good amongall classes, but among the humble folkhe found iihe more fertile soil and re

sponsive hearts. The common peopleheard him (too) gladly. He was afriend to man and sowed seed besideall waters; but his keen insight tocharacter and latent possibilities inyoung life suggested the wiser investments in ceptain individuals. 'Thegoodly number assisted by his generosity are rendering conspicuousservice in various vocations and professions and in widely distributedfields of labor. A saving gospel isbeing preached to the benighted multitudes in India and in Africa by missionaries whose preparation for larger service was made possible throughhis material help. Some of the prominent pulpits, north and south, are being ably filled by ministers receivinglike assistance. Numberless othershave been inspired to nobler efl'ortsthrough personal contact with thisman of God.A major contribution to the king

dom is his son, the Rev. Delos H. Cassels, an alumnus of Asbury College,whose ministry has been likewisemarvelously fruitful. Another son.Worth, is rendering efficient serviceto his county as Supervisor.Many religious leaders have shared

the hospitality of his palatial antebellum home while conducting revivalservices at tliat religious center,among them our beloved Dr. Morrison.

In the times of his prosperity our

deceased brother contributed liberally to Asbury College and in the earlydays of The Pentecostal Herald hepaid up a life-time subscription thereto.Such a remarkable life of service

naturally has a source. That source

was God! In early youth he joinedthe church and throughout the subsequent well-nigh seventy years he con

tinued a true Methodist in doctrineand practice. The justified experieneripened him for the fullness of Divinegrace and when the opportunity came

in the early days of the modern holiness revival he joyfully entered theexperieftce of full deliverance. Fornearly forty years his holy living,happy testimony, abundant labors andsound teaching have proven important factors in the movement. JohnCassels was not merely a good man,�he was a sanctified man.

The end was victorious. The multitude attending the funeral servicesattested his popularity and gave evi

dence that his labor had not been in

vain Ministers from prominent pulpits '(one from St. Louis) represent

ing three of the largest protestantdenominations had attempted to payjust tribute to his memory. The leading jurist of the second was present,recognizing the loss sustained bystate. But testimony from anothersource was desired by this writer.Among the large number of coloredfolk present was an old man givingtokens of his personal loss. He wasasked, "Did you know Mr. Cassels?""Shore ought to: lived right haire allme life." "Was he a good man?"was further asked. The good olddarkey looked with disgust upon thequestion, that he should be so lackingin common knowledge and repliedwith emphasis, "Good man? Hewa'n't nuthin else but!"That sincere tribute made it unan

imous. May our last end be like his!S. E. Carruth.

NELSON.Mrs. Mary R. Nelson, born in Fals-

ter, Denmark, Sept. 11, 1855, andpassed to the Homeland, March 26,1930. She immigrated to Americawith her parents, Hans and MargaretJensen, two sisters and two brothers,in 1861 and settled in Waupaca,Wis.Miss Mary R. Nelson grew up and

was educated around Waupaca; wasmaiTied to Sophus P. E. Nelson, Jan.19, 1874. To this union were bornfive children. Mr. Nelson took up ahomestead at Medford, Wis., in 1877and moved there. Her husband wenthunting June 9, 1886, and never returned. Three years later some onecame across his remains. Motherknew the gun, compass, and knife.The remains were buried in the Medford cemetery. Mrs. Nelson movedback to Waupaca in 1886, labored andbrought up her three children to thebest of her ability.' She taught us

early to reverence our Father inHeaven, by reading his Word, morning and evening prayer, instilling into our hearts trust, obedience andfaith. Although her church was theLutheran, she sent us to the EnglishEpiscopal Sunday school. All threeof us were converted in Methodistmeetings years ago and joined thechurch. Mrs. Nelson became lame inher hip in 1878; lost her hearing in1884, leaving her entirely deaf. Sheread her Bible daily, took manyChristian papers, one The PentecostalHerald, for a number of years.

She was laid to rest in the Waupaca cemetery near many of her people to await the resurrection. Funeral services held at Waupaca, Wis.,March 29, 1930. She had come into a

happy, joyous experience with herLord. We who survive thank Godfor a mother whose influence has ever

been upward, and her grandchildrenwill always remember her pointingthe way, ever watching and praying.

"The Home Land."Life changes all our thoughts of

Heaven;At first we think of streets of gold.

Of gates of pearl and dazzling light.Of shining wings and robes of

white.And things all strange to mortal

sight.But in the afterward of yearsIt is a more familiar place,

A home unhurt by sighs or tears.Where waiteth many a well-known

face.With passing months it grows more

near.It grows more real day by day.

Not strange or cold, but very dear�The glod home-land not far away.

Where none are ill, or poor, or lone.The place where we shall find our

own.

As we think of all we knewWho there have met to part no

more.Our longing hearts desire home, too.With all the strife and trouble o'er.

Her daughter,Mrs. E. A. Smith.

WICHITA CAMP MEETING.

In 1888 the Wichita Camp Meetingbegan in a small way, but has developed into the Kansas State HolinessAssociation. From 43 years of the

history of the work done, it raised upmany auxiliaries in Kansas and some

in adjoining states, during the many

years of the Field Secretaryship ofBro. W. R. Cain, the only one whoever held that position.From the meetings led by our

greatest holiness evangelists of this

country, and singers, and children's

workers, there have been and are

many ministers, evangelists and missionaries throughout our land and

foreign fields, in various churches,who were won to Christ, and gavethemselves in a complete consecra

tion and, through faith, were sanctified wholly in this meeting. We are

writing asking the prayers of TheHerald family for our meeting this

year at Wichita, Kan., August 14-24.Our leaders are Rev. C. M. Dunaway,Decatur, Ga., Dr. John F. Owen, Columbus, Ohio, Dean of Theology Taylor University, Dr. G. W. Ridout,from world tour of evangelistic mis

sionary work, also of PentecostalHerald. Prof, and Mrs. B. D. Suttonlead our music, and Rev. and Mrs.E. D. Bartlett are children's workers.

They are under appointment to theAfrican Mission field for the NationalAssociation. We consider this a crisisfor our camp and Association. The

building and equipment of our tabernacle and the flood of a few years agohave caused us to have to carry a

debt that has become burdensome,and changing in administration callfor special prayer. We feel the workis needed more than ever now.

Yours prayerfully for His glory.J. E. Wilson, Pres.

THREE OF AMERICA'S OUTSTANDING PREACHERS ON

KAVANAUGH PROGRAM

Dr. Alonzo Monk, Jr., Dr. Frederick Agar and Dr. H. H. Halley to beheard twice daily at famous camp

grounds, August 7-17.According to the first announce

ment, which is just off the press.

Camp Kavanaugh, near Crestwood,Ky., 18 miles east of Louisville, is to

have three great preachers on its

daily program, this summer.

Dr. Alonzo Monk, Jr., of Dallas,Texas, has been engaged to conductthe evangelistic services twice dailyat 11 A. M. and 7:30 P. M. No man

preaches the Gospel in a more heart-

stirring fashion than Dr. Monk. Heis known all over America because of

the tremendous success with whichthe Lord has blessed his ministry.Another outstanding feature of the

program this summer will be the lectures on Church Efiiciency by Dr.Frederick A. Agar, of New York City,who is without doubt, one of thegreatest authorities on Church Programs, Church Financing and ChurchEfficiency in the world today. Dr.Agar is in charge of the Departmentof Church Efficiency of the NorthernBaptist Board and is in great demandamong all denominations. He will beheard at 3 o'clock daily in the afternoons and for 20 minutes -each eveningjust before the evangelistic services.The regular patrons of the camp

will be delighted to know that Dr. H.H. Halley, of Chicago, will again appear on the program giving twoScripture recitals daily. Dr. Halleyhas memorized the Scriptures and hisRecitals make the Scriptures clearenough for even the small children tounderstand. It was the unanimousrequest of the 1929 Kavanaugh campers that brought Dr. Halley back foranother series of Bible Recitals.Unusual musical talent is on the

program this year in the McKinleyTrio, of Morristown, Tenn. The Triois composed of Prof. H. Evan McKinley, who is a splendid gospel soloistand song leader and who plays on a

number of instruments, including thetrombone, saxaphone and musicalsaw, Mrs. Beulah McKinley who playsthe piano and saxaphone and is theonly woman in America who plays thepiano accordian in evangelistic workexclusively, and Master H. Evan McKinley, Jr., who is only eleven yearsof age and is the youngest boy soloisttraveling in evangelistic work. H.Evan, Jr., plays the saxaphone in theTrio. Prof. McKinley was formerlya pastor, but for a number of yearshe has been in evangelistic work andhas been blessed with tremendous re

sults in soul winning.Miss Rena Chatham, of Louisville,

is again in charge of the children'sprogram and Miss Christine Golds-borough, of LaGrange, is again theofficial pianist. She will also be theChairman of Woman's Missionary Society Day, Thursday, August 14.The camp meeting and Bible Con

ference begins Thursday evening,August 7th and closes Sunday even

ing, August 17th. Reservations are

WILMORE, KENTUCKY.


"What we preach in these days" seems to be an open question in some theological circles. Asbury Seminary is in harmony at this point with St. Paul's dictum"Preach the word." '

With Asbury, "the what" is not an open question, and "the how" is answeredby taking a three-year course in theology culminating in the B. D. degree. "Thewhole Bible for the whole world" sanely interpreted and heroically preached is theideal toward which we strive. Write Dean F. H. Larabee, Wilmore, Ky., for catalog


Bethel Academy is a fully accredited four-year high school, recognized as "A"grade by the Association of Kentucky Colleges and is a member of the Association ofColleges, and Secondary Schools of the Southern States.
