TuE VILLAGE or NAZARETH
Grand cid village l. Nazareth. even put
ting aside iLs sacred associations. First OF
al. il Is clean. aud that can be said OF few
OF the oriental villages Its neighboring
town 0f NablOuf Is the flthiest town |
ever saw. although It's chief industry is the
manufacture OF soap. They export all Of
il. Nazareth was perhaps unusually clean
the morning speak OF, for as We rode into
The village the afternoon before the show
ers which had put our macintoshes 70 the
test had poured floods through all the
alleys under command Of the clouds, those
thorough street commissioners. Besides
that, Nazareth has been the scene Of
battles passing it from Israelite 10 Mo
hammedAn and from MOhammedan 70
Christian. the most wonderful Of the bat
ties being that Ia which twenty-five thou
sand Turks were beaten by twenty-one
hundred French, Napoleon BOnaparte
commanding, that greatest Of Frenchmen
walking these very streets through which
Jesus walked for nearly thirty years, the
morals OF tho two the antipodes, the
SHOWS OF Russia and the plaques of Egypt
appropriately following the one. the dox-

heaven appropriately following the other.
And then this town is 30 beautifully situ-
ated in great green bowl. the sides Of the
bowl the surrounding fifteen hills. The
God OF nature who Is the God OF the Bible
evidently scooPed out this valley for pri-
vacy and separation from all the world
during three most important decades, the
thirty years OF Christ's boyhood and
youth. for Of the thirty-three years OF
Christ's stay on earth he spent thirty OF
them In tAis town In getting ready-a
startling rcboke to those who have no pa
tience with the long years Of preparation
necessary when they entsr on any special
mission for the church or the world. The
trouble il with most young men that they
want 70 lauDch their ship from the drydock
before il is ready, and hence 50 many sink
In the first cyclone Stay in the store rs
subordinate until you are thoroughly
equipped BE good employe in your
trade until you are qualified to be an en-
p,oyer. BE content with Nazareth until
you are ready for the bufTetings Of Jerusa-
lem. You may get 50 gloriously equipped
IN the thirty years that you can do more in
three years than most men can accomplish
in a prolonged lifetime. These little sug-
gesti0ns nm apt TO put into my sermon,
hoping to help people FOR this world. while
am chiefly anxious 60 have them prepare
for the next world.
