Thus did William Mckinley gather

in history as excelling all that have gone
before. The citizens Of the Capitol city
worked to that end with a degree of en-
ergy unknown even in this public spir-
tied community. In beauty, in taste, in
novelty, the decorations of the city were
incomparably superior to anything ever
seen before in Washington; the ma gni-
fcent body OF regular United States
troops was more numerous than any
gathered since Grants great display at
the close Of the war; II sovereign states
had their citizens in the line Of parade,
and over so civil organizations helped to
swell its magnificent proportions

longer than usual-full four miles in fact
made so to ease the pressure Of spec
tators upon the line in the central sec

ToPic-Ha.g the Christian EAdeavor pledge
siren citizens the Christian life.-u Kings xiii,
la 2l.25.
The opposition to religious pledge,
such as the Endeavor pledge, is unrea-
souabe and unjust There is no impor-
taut relation IN life wkere pledges are
not prominent In the business world
men take solemn vows and obligations
upon thems Ives In the political world
men in being conducted into public office
take m t solemn oaths that they Will
faithfully discharge the duties Of their

PAT III tae most sacred Of all our social
Relations. irat of matrimony.
TINS opposition Is also unscrlpturll
TIL most le5. Mt servants Of GEO IN the
BIZ took solemn vows upon them
selves josh was a eoad king and
faithful servant Of Ged. No enc Ques-
ten tar>- i..is Yet he teok a pledge
upou hlm~a.t aud had all Judah DO the
same. IlI> p.vdge was taken at the
time IF t.e AudIhg CT the lost book Of
thu law Of hIla1ah, the priest 1t con-
sisted III rene wing the covenant which
had origiua y been made between God
ana his p.uy,e at Mount Horeb. This
pledge had FIR the time at least two
good effects upon the people, and these
illustrate how the Christian Endeavor
pledge stree ,eDs the Christian life.
/. The Christian Endeayor pledge
Strengthens the Christian life by keep
ing us more faithfully in the path Of
Christian duty This was the first effect
upon the people of Judah when they
renewed the covenant with God. They
took the covenant upon them, and 1t
kept them faithful. A pledge helps Us
to be faithial to God and to Christian
duties. 1t places an additional obllga-
ton upon Us to be faithful. In being
faitaless We not only sin in this way
against God, but also in the breaking Of
the pledge Human nature IS w eak- We
need about Us every incentive TO right
living and right doing. A solemn pledge
Is such an incentive No one can ques-
ton this fac; The drunkard who takes
the temper ~ pledge males more de-
termined effort to resist the temptation
to drink than if he had not taken the
pledge. and in me vast majority Of cases
with greater success. A pledge strength
ems our purpose to do right, and in SO
dong helps Us TO do right.
2 the ClIlstian E4deayor pledge
strengthens Us IL our Christian life by
restraining Us from evil. JOSIAH because
of his covenant not only kept faithful
to Coo, but also put away evil from the
people He did away with all things
that were denominations to God. Pledges
help US to be. faithful in duty and re-
strain Us from evil, the two necessities
to a strong Christian life. We must not
only learn 10 do we'll, but also cease to
do evil The Christian Endeavor pledge
helps Us TO do both, and in SO doing
strengthens our lives.
