YALE MISSIONARY BAND.
Will Conduct a Series of Meetings
Here Next Week.

The pastors and workers of the
churches and Young Peoples societies
of the city have been for some time
lamenting the lack of interest shown in
foreign missionary work. What little
interest there exists, is very spasmodic.
There are many missionary organiza-
tons in the city that are missionary
in name only. and in order to get the
work in better condition the Yale Mis-
s'onary Band vii! visit the city rext
week.
Arthur Williams. of this city, is one
os the band. 1t will be possible TO hold
five meetings each night in different
parts Of the city for three days. These
arc not to be mass meetings but simply
meetings of members of the mission
. AIRY committees and of the societies.
Every society of young pc 1ple. regard

TO have their work reorGaniZed aru

vey. 1913 Vine street.

its work next Sunday, morning and
evening at the Second Presbyterian n
church.

EVENING DISCOURSE.
DIR. Mcleod breaches on the Parable
of the VINEYARD,

of the Vineyard.
Rev. Dr. James Mcleod at the First
Presbyterian church last night deliv-
cred a brief address on the parable
of the householder, his vineyard and
the laborers. Despite it's brevity it
was full of instructions and interest
DIR. Mcleod said that the spirit and
motive of service to God has more to
do with its worth than has anything
else. This thought is the theme of the
parable according to st. Matthew.
lt Is claimed that all in the parable
is subordinate to the apostles repeat
ed chronicle that the first shall be last
and the last first. Those whose ingen-
uity has eXcelled their wisdom have
gone into too much detail in attempt
ing to particularize the meaning of all
that the story contains. 1t is sufficient
to know that Christ means to convey
the information that the faithful will
be rewarded, that their reward will
not be according to what they do so
much as by the spirit of their labor.
The household is Jesus Christ, the
vineyard his church, and the laborers
his disciples. In that parable the one
class, "the first" bargained for their
hire, while the latter class, more hum
BILE, trusted in the fairness of their
employer Bearing in mind this diff
ference we will better understand the
argument of why labor for reward is
comparatively less valuable than labor
for love.
1t is not said that "all," but "many"
of the first shall be last. The descip-
les were not prompted by any worldly
or selfish motives SO we understand
why 1t was promised "verily that they
shall receive their reward" They
loved the vineyard. the people of the
vineyard, their fellowmen. Clothed
with humility they labored and trust
ed.
Still many of the last will remain
last because of their hireling spirit
and lack of true devotion. There has
been too much comfort taken by some
who have interpreted the meaning of
the reward given those who began 10
labor at the eleventh hour. IT was on
ly meant TO show that Christ could
save the tardy and not to indicate
that any sinner is warranted in post
poning his salvation and work for
Christ until the eleventh hour. 1t does
not appear in the parable that any
of the laborers delayed in responding
at once to the invitation to begin work.
All outside Christs vineyard is idle
ness. life filled with business is
idle if without Godliness. Those who
keenly feel the vanity of life, dull labor,
many sorrows, a plunge into oblivion,
should not hesitate to respond when
the Saviour asks why stand ye here
idle all the day" Why should
they delay in beginning a work that
the Saviour left heaven to begin? We
| may well ask ourselves what work are
we to occupy, what position to fill?
True religion never was nor never
can be a fruitful source of idleness
though it can be of happiness.

use Sunday best when in some of It's
hours we strive to put in practice the
Masters lessons. This may take us to
manual labor. We use the day best
when on IL we go forth on missions Of
humanity. Far from being n day Of
inactivity, this one day which we mark
off from the other six and call the
Lords Day, should be the most ACTIVE
of them all. Then we should indeed
be alive with something Of the Lords
life. then we should be awake to our
privileges and duties; then the real
interests should be uppermost in our
thoughts"
