From the text chosen: Man shall
not live by bread alone, but by every
word that proceedeth out OF the mouth
! OF God. Dr. Morgan preached n SER
mon particularly applicable to the
present social unrest. After literally in
\ terpreting the text, he defined capital
wealth and labor The reverend speak
er said that demaGogues and news-
I papers had so nflnmed the minds Of
many people. that wealth, In its true
4 sense was not correctly understood.
This arraying OF capital against labor
was an existing evil that should not
( exist. W 2 { 81
We have wealth In many senses that
Z we do not consider as such, yet It eS-
lists nevertheless. To have a govern
ment that affords us privileges and
.Hprotectionsis a form Of wealth. Learn
Z ing. knowledge, culture are Very high
& forms ofiwealth-wealth to the mind. A
school house is 81 much a. storekousc of
wealth as granary OF wheat. A poor
Il boy with thread-barc coat and panta-
looms may store up his mind with the
I wealth of learning.
Facilities for travel by land or sea
are also tormsj of wealth. A trip to
4 other countries, by man who has
q saved his money for such trips, en-

{ creates wealth Is a constant cry OF the
demagogue. In a sense this Is so, but

the manual labor, comes the tools, the
machinery-ail produced by the tnven-

creator OF wealth as the man using
the tools OF machinery. The chemist

Human society Is becoming to be an
organism. No community Is sclf-rc-
liant; no nation can say to another:
I've can stand without your By the
utilizing and application Of steam and
i electricity, the world Is being made
i smaller and smaller. We cannot disso-
5Sciate ourselves. 81 Il n
The pursuit. OF wealth is legitimate.
4 Everyone should seek to be a producer
n OF wealth as well as n consumer, and
& not a destroyer. But aftersali tie high:
est form OF wealth Is religion. It Is the
only wealth that satisfies that great

Il The wealth of heaven Is one that viii

& wealth We should constantly follow.
