the land frightful with their roar and
are fattening upon the bodies and souls
Of immortal menl Who is ready for such
a party as that? Who will be a mighty
hunter for the Lord?
The Game.
! remark, again, if you want to be
successful in spiritual archery you need
moi only to bring down the game, but
bring it in. I think one of the most
beautiful pictures of Thorwaldsen is his
Autumn" 1t represents a sportsman
coming home and standing under a
grapevine. He has a staff over his
shoulder, and on the other end of that
staff are hung q rabbit and O brace of
birds. Every hunter brings home the
game. No one would think of bringing
down q reindeer OF whipping up q
stream for trout and letting them lie in
the woods. AT eventide the camp is
adorned with the treasures of the forest
-beak and fin and antler. If you go out
to hunt for immortal souls, not only
bring them down under the arrow Of
the gospel. but bring them into the
church OF God, the encampment we
have pitched this side of the skies.
Fetch them in. Do not let them lie out
in the open field. They need our prayers
and %sympathies and help. That is the
meaning Of the church of God-help.
y ye hunters for the Lord, not only
bring down the game but bring it inl
II Mithridates liked hunting SO we'll
that for seven years he never went in
doors, what enthusiasm ought we to
have who are hunting for immortal
soulsl If Domitianus practiced archery
until he could stand a boy down in the
Roman amphitheater. with q hand out,
the fingers like that, and then the king
could shoot an arrow between the fingers
without wounding them, to what drill
and what practice ought not we subject
ourselves in order to become spiritual
archers and mighty hunters before the
Lordl' But let me say, you will never
any better than you pray. The old
archers took the bow, put one end of it
down beside the foot, elevated the other
end, and it was the rule that the bow
should be just the size Of the archer; if
it were just his size, then he would go
into the battle with confidence. Let me
say that your power to project good in
the world will correspond exactly to
your w spiritual stature. In other
words, the first thing in preparation for
Christian work is personal conservation.

draw the resolution upon which he was
making his fight. He insisted on full
debate and then called for a vote. Mr..
Clark's resolution, which was TO put
municipal league collars on all candidates
by making them pledge themselves In adj
vance was lost and Mr.. Clark constituted
the entire minority which voted for 1t.
Secretary Bicknel offered an amend
ment to the constitution by which pay
ment of dues is made a qualification for
mem bership and this was continued un-
til the next meeting under the rules.
A resolution was passed to the effect
that the Municipal League is opposed TO
corporation interference with municipal
affairs.

as authorized by the City Solicitor, OF the
