GOD RULES BY LAWS


 and by motives. Self government is the grand spiritual principle of the. King dom of Heaven. Voluntary, loving obedience is what the Lord wants of men. The highest art of government is to lead men by the noblest motives to right conduct. Hence the Lord warns them of the evil consequences of their choice and permits them to have their way.
 "Now therefore hearken unto their voice, howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and show them the manner of the king that shall reign over them. And Samuel told all the words of the Lord unto the people that asked of him king, And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you. He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen, and some shall run before his chariots.
 And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.
 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers. And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your olive yards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants. And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vine- yards, and give to his officers, and to his servants. And he will take your men servants, and your maid servants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to work. He will take the tenth of your sheep; and ye shah be his servants.
 And ye shall cry out in that day be- cause of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the Lord will not hear you in that day"
 There is no government so costly and tyrannical as that of the ungodly; and the rule of the boss and the machine is worse than that of king. And, when "S AdFO ouSS 5uDIllUbcu JU SUCH &OVGTE- ment God will bring us to hearty re- pentance until we gladly return to the government of ourselves in righteous ness.
 How significant are the closing words of this chapter: Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay, but we will have a king over us; that we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and fight our battles.
 And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the Lord.
 AND THE LORD SAID to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel. Coy every man unto his own city" And so Saul was king. And then in the 12th chapter

TENDS RATHER TO ENLARGE


 and intensity our relations to the con- munity in all the interests of the world. We are not only citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven, but by virtue of that fact we are bound to use our utmost endeavor to make the state in all it's social and moral standards like the Kingdom of God. and indeed part of it, in the prin- ciples and conduct of life. It cannot be otherwise than that it should be ex- pected and required that Christians should establish and maintain Christian states and Christian government. It is therefore strange inconsistency that any Christian community should be gov erned by ungodly laws, and evil prac- tices, and wicked men. There must be something seriously wrong in any town, or city, or state in which the majority of it's voters are members of the church of Christ and still it is practically govern ed in the interests of Goddess and law less men.
 It is an evil fashion which has led good men to forsake the caucus and the ballot box because of the abuses of po- litical duties and privileges. 'sRender therefore unto Caesar the things which are C@sar's; and unto God, the things that are God's,'' said the Lord of life. What is it other than that grand sum- mary of the whole law which is love to God and love to men. The one is no less duty than the other and there can be no necessary conflict between our duties to the church and the state. Indeed they are one. Why, then. should we forsake he law of God and leave the institutions of the state in the hands of others, because the sons of Samuel have taken bribes and perverted jndgement?n The church teaches us ssTo honor and obey the civil askhnritY, 2 but how can we do this even,

Guently proved very severe test. Though
there were six entries only George A.
Newhall, j. Baldwin and John Parrot

Charles A. Baldwin with combined skill
and style.
Pedestals or posts were placed 7 feet
apart a. each end of the track and ak in
the center, three being at either side of
the judges stand, and arranged in tri-
angles. The test was to drive between the
various sets of posts without touching
them and to make the figure 50" through
the central ones.
Newhall whipped up his horses and
started for the end posts. He came at the
first pair with oyercon tidence and knocked
hoth down. Then he eSsayed passage
through the exceedingly close quarters at
the opposite end and made kindling- wood

making the second round pulled up with
