Fay Mills, the noted r%evivalist, serves
notice that the "old orthodoxy no
longer interests him. He has found
something new and abandons the
Presbyterians and the Evangelicals for
the Unitarians. He talks of a better
understanding of Christ's message to
the church.. He is sentimental, fanci-
full, mystical and defective in state
ment Of belief. The New York Outlook
takes him in hand in this wise:
His understanding of that message
is summed up in a conviction of sin and
a to a life of faith and self
devotion; our understanding of the mes
sage is that it is the proclamation of the
fact, historically attested by the death
and resurrection Of Jesus Christ, that
we can summon to Our il a power, not
other wise possessed by us, to enable
us to live such a life. MI. Mills under
stands the religion Of Jesus to be sum-
med up in love to God and low to man;
we understand that more fundamental
than either is Christ's message that God
loves us, His children, and will help us
to the life Of ove."

Died For His Master

When a man gives up his life for
another, posterity erects a monument
to his memory; but when a dog dies
that his master may live, men stop and
think, and John Walker, of Roselle, N.
j., was doing a lot Of thinking on Sat-
urday night. He was face to face
with death, and his dog had averted
the blow.
Walker left his house early in the
morning for a stroll. His dog followed
him. He tried to drive him back. Then
master and dog started to walk along
the Jersey Central railroad tracks to
Elizabeth.
Midway between the stations Walker
met a heavy freight running rapidly
eastward, making enough noise to
deaden all other sounds. Walker STEP
ped to the west-bound track. His dog,
which had been running ahead after
birds or lettering behind to make short
and noisy excursions into the bushes,
closed in on his master when the train
neared him.
Walke was careless. He never look
ed behind him, and did not hear or see
the Royal Blue express. Brakemen on
the freight train shouted warnings.
The engineer Of the express train blew
his whistle, with no avail. It was too
late to stop, although the engineer was
trying to do 80. Walker plodded on.
When the train was nearly on top
of Walker his dog sprang at him with
a growl. Walker turned, saw the
train and stepped aside in time to
avoid the cars as they swept past him
with a roar. Not so with the dog.
The pilot of the engine struck the
animal and tossed him aside.
When Walker recovered his senses
he looked for his dog. The faithful
animal lay dying, with his back broken.
Walker carried the dog to the side
Of the track. The brute licked his
hand, feebly wagged his tail and died
in his masters arms.

by either Of the two greatest novels
mentioned by Lang. Probably among
the mass of admirers of Thackeray the
majority prefer vanity Fair" a work
indeed Of singular vigor and originality.
AS a purely artistic work, with very
great scenes, Henry Esmond' is the
greatest-one OF the supreme master
pieces in fiction. So far as We have
read there is nothing greater unless we
name Victor Hugo's Les Miserabiles."
Mr.. Lang mentions certain other ia
nous and most interesting Victorian
noveiists. Bulwer, Trollope, Charles
Reade, Charles Kingsley and others,
but in clipping we have cut ourselves
off from copying what he says as it ap-
pears on the diverse side and what is
already pasted down in copy. He thinks
many living poets will probably live
in a few pieces, their best" but he
rightly says that there is nobody writ
ing great verses, great by the stand
ard of Tennyson." OF living novelists-
the best-he says, I'VE have still, thank
heaven, novelists of humor, sympathy,
delicacy, observation, and novelists who
can tell a plain tale Of adventure and
event, and novelists who can make his
tory live again."

The writer of the Letter to the He
brews in the tenth chapter first sets
forth that the Law could not by it's
sacrifices make the worshippers per-
feet, but that the Lord Jesus Christ
perfects forever them th-t are sancti-
fed. The 18th verse reads: For by
one offering he has perfected forever
them that are sanctified." There is no
getting away with this statement for
it is the declaration or inspiration.
Beginning with the nineteenth verse
the writer of the epistle sets forth mo-
tives to faith holiness, and discusses the
privileges and duties of Christian be-
levers, and in the 29th n two sue
ceeding verses he gives warnings,
dreadful and solemn, hat it will be
we'll for all believers to heed, for as he
says it is indeed "a fearful thing to
fall into the hands Of the living God"
A venerable man of some seventy-four
or five, long a member of a Christian
church, some little while 6 sought us
for consolation as he was in trouble.
He asked us what about Hebrews 10,
1929? Does the declaration therein
reach all who sin against God after be-
ing in the Church processing to be
Christians? No wonder he was dis
turbed if the general understanding of
those verses be the true meaning, the
clear teaching of the author Of them.
If we sin wilfully we are lost who then
shall be saved? If all men who profess
to be servants of the Most High are to
be damned if they once wilfully sin
then indeed are they bad off, for their
case is indeed absolutely hopeless. The
passage is rather long for full quota
ton. Turn to your Bibles and read
it carefully. We are taught,
1. That eff we sin wilfully after lat
we lave received the knowledge of the
TRUTH" We are lost, for there remain
eth no more sacrifice for SIM"
2. That then will be "a certain
judgment and fiery indignation which
shall devour'' the "wilful" sinners.
8. That the punishment shall be
"how much sorer' than that which
overlooked those who despise the law
of Moses and "died without mercy" be-
cause the sinners against the Saviour
hath sinned much more greatly as they
have trodden under ",ot the Son of
God, and hath counteG The blood of the
covenant, wherewith he was sanctified
an unholy thing" and by this enormous
sin hath done despite TO the spirit of
grace"
We notice that men who are lost un-
der this penalty for SMITHS kind of
SMITHS extreme form of sin as de-
scribed. We're once "sanctified"-were
"set apart" as the word means-were
adopted into the family of God by faith
in the Son Of God; else there would be
no treading under foot the Son of
God" and no possible sanctification in
Bible meaning. But this by the way.
Now what is the probable teaching,
meaning Of those four verses indicated?
We are not we'll supplied with authori-
ties at this point, having nearly thirty
years ago sold our then latest commen-
tators. We can only state our under
standing of what is taught in Hebrews,
after being taught Of others, and TAX
ing the hopeful side desiring to avail
ourselves Of the more favorable view
OF the doctrine presented. We under
derstand the inspired writer to be deal
