EPWORTH LEAGUE MEETING TOPICS
November l-Mission Study Rally Day.

We have gone far beyond the day
when hazy vision of missionary
under palm tree, preaching to o
half-dozen natives, was counted suf.
ficient knowledge of missions. There
Is now great and adequate literature
of missions. There are men and
women who have first.hand knowledge,
both of the mission fields and Of tho
resources OF the Church. Their knowl
edge is now within reach. We have
a newly increased interest in the sub
ject of missions. 1t has come to be
the point of strategic Importance in
the forward movement of Christen'
dom. 1t has political and social and
commercial bearing on the life of our
own land. There is no part of the
work of the Church more worthy Of
study than the missionary enterprise.
A copy of the textbook for mission
Study Glasses should be secured early
from the Methodist Book Concern.
Full information concerning the
textbooks for the year may be OBJ
tanned Of the Epworth League office,
81 Washington Street, Chicago. The
central Office will send free of charge
circular explaining the courses and
further helps in the preparation for
the meeting, as well as full details as
to the organization of Mission Study
Classes
Insist on the interest to be found in
Mission Study. Prove it, by examples
from personal experience.
Set forth in some graphic way tho
facts found under What Our Church
ia Doing To-day"
Emphasize the fact that Mission
Study is a tracing OF the journeys OF
our LORD. among the nations-as truly
as study of the Gospel is tracing
of his going up and down in the Holy
Lanu.
Present the plan of the Department
of World Evangelism for systematic
Mission Study.
Look for immediate results. Expect
that some people will desire to begin
the study of missions, Give them an
opportunity to make themselves
known.
If possible the leader of the class
should have been selected before
hand Then. while interest in the sub
ject Is still fresh, the class enroll.
ment may be begun at the close OF
the meeting. and the time and place OF
the first class hour appointed.

Storks In Denmark.

Denmark is the country which Is
especially favored by storks. In the
towns you may see many nests ON the
buildings In close proximity to one
another, and the birds themselves
feed unconcernedly In the meadows
and roadside fields. In the country
nearly every farmhouse has a place
made for the storks' benefit In tho
gable end of the thatched roof. And
they are generally occupied.

Leescn Thoughts.
David's life gives us these two les
sons very emphatically. the necessity
Of trust in God, illustrated by David's
successes when relying upon Gods
help, and his failures when depending
upon himself; and the wisdom OF
trusting God, who never failed to re-
ward richly all the confidence of Da,
vid.
one great secret OF David's con.
sinually growing faith in God was his
readiness to recognize Gods help and
to acknowledge it In psalms of glad
thanksgiving.
Selections.
Come, blessed Psalms. when weak
and lone
My heart breaks down and finds no
aid,
And let me find in your deep tone
Some voice of comfort ready made
For who shall find, in pain or loss,
Words of such sweet, sustaining
power
As those that hung about the cross
And soothed my Sayiors dying
hour?
We are safe anywhere while the
Lord has work for us to do. Be it ours
to live with the harp in our hand,
praising God and blessing our tellow.
men, and We shall be preserved from
the javelins of our foes.
Good men are grateful men. iona.
than had shown David great kindness.
and therefore David sought to return
It to his descendants. He who is not
faithful In friendship gives no evi
dence that he is sincere in religion.
Happy is the man who from his
heart can bless God that he has been
kept pure and true, for he shall find
as David did. that the Lord will soon
er bow the heavens and dry up the
seas, than leave the godly to theiI
enemies.
David going forth alone and un
armed, trusting only in God and his
good arm, to meet the naughty cham
pion of Philistia, has become the type
Of single-hearted faith, confronting the
powers of the world, and overcoming
the great Adversary.
Suggested Hymns.
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord.
Praise. my soul, the King of heaven
Search me, o Lord, and try this
heart of mine.
While thou, o my God. art my helr
and defender.
Sing unto the Lord, o ye saints OF
his.
When morning gilds the skies.
