inserted. My father took your paper

In the evening the subject chosen was
the power and efficacy OF prayer from
st. John. He assumed that prayer Is
natural 20 man as his flow OF language.
Tribes have been found without houses
without raiment. without letters, without
sciences. but never wlthoutprayer This
truth is confirmed by researches and eX-
plorstions OF modern travellers and
etbnologists; that it is an essential
element of lite, not physical but ethical
and spiritual lie. Logic cannot deprive
us of life. and religion is lie to the
religious, and Is M experience of con
sciousness it is beyond the assaults OF
logic. Prayer hath subdued the
strength of fire, bridled the
rage OF lions, hushed anarchy, eN-
tinguished wars, sppessed the elements
expelled demons, burst the CHAINS OF death
and opened the gates OF heaven. "lf ye
abide in me and my words IN you, ye

to the throne of grace, confident that our
PRAYERS will be heard and answered.
