But where as Christian disciples
shall we bum Christ's future class
rooms? Everywhere. In them must
be gathered the old and the young, the
rich and the poor, the white and the
black, the Jew the gentle. For them
the applications for membership do not
need the Endorsement of wealthy
mans check. They are not restricted
to social caste. as Is the famous prl
vate school near st. Petersburg, which
was established only for the sons and
daughters of the men who are the ia
vorites of the Russian car. Did l say
the future gospel classrooms must be
built for all people alike? I misquoted
myself They must be especially built
for the poor and the helpless and the
weak and the lame and the blind and
the outcasts, social and spiritual. The
command is given unto us in emphatic
terms, "Go We out into the highways
and the hedges and compel them to
come In" These are the words Christ
uses, Compel, compel, compel them to
come In"
A Message to the World.
What Il message it Is that the stu
dents in Christs school are commits
stoned to deliver to the world! 1t trans
forms the whole aspect of life. This
world, in the light of our Lords teach
ing, Is no longer the scene of meaning
less suffering, of useless struggle and
inevitable disappointment 1t is a
scene of preparation, of discipline, of
educa ton, in the highest sense of the
word, for larger fuller life. AS the
children who are now assembling in
our school-houses are being prepared
for manhood and womanhoCd of use
full service, so the men and women in
Christ's school have reached n higher
grade. They, too, are being educated
and trained for Il grandcr career. The
lessons are hard to learn. the discipline
is often painful. But we go to our
tasks with brave heart when we dis
cover that there is Il purpose in it all.
We can bear hardship and persecution
and aflliction when we know that they
are developing in us qualities which we
shall need in better world than this
Thus trials come to us with new faces

Thus, my Christian friends, by the
words of my text, open to you life
of endless gospel activity. First as a
student, YOU are to come into touch

We have often read how heroic deeds
an earthly king Can We not realize
how our deeds as the representatives
Of Christ can draw men to or drive
them away from the cross? Many
years ago n French army was battling
under the hot and blasting Algerian
sun. The forced marches and the coun'
ter marches which that army was com
PEELED to take were enough to kill an
African negro, let alone a European.
Then in order to increase the horror
fatal cholera broke out In one regi-
ment. Man after man died. The army
became panic stricken, and all seemed
to be lost. But one night Colonel Gar
darens wanted to prove that this
dreaded disease was contagious 'whol-
ly through food and drink and in no
other way" So he himself lifted one of
the cholera corpses out OF Its bed.
Then he turned to his men and said:
Now | viii show you that cholera Is
not infectious. will pass the night in
this mans bed" He raised the bed
clothes and lay down and slept In
the morning he awoke, arose and de-
parted to his own quarters n well man,
That power Of personal example in
spired his men. They took heart. The
French army was saved My friends,
our examples as representatives of Je-
sus Christ must exert the same kind of
good or bad influence that Colonel
Gardarens had over his men. AS gos-
pei students we must duplicate Chrlsts
life or we must misrepresent him. We
shall lead sinful men and women to his
altar or drive them farther away. eve

A Remarkable Exhibit For Fair.

w hen Columbus discovered
America there stood in a remote
mountain gorge in Cherokee coun-
| ty, North Carolina, tulip popular
tree that was then 400 years old.
For four more centuries it grew
and flourished, and was recently
felled for exhibition at the st.
Louis Worlds Fair. The tree was
l3 feet in diameter at the base
when it was cut. The gorge in
which it grew was so inaccessible,
being forty miles from railroad
that it was impracticable to OBJ
tain a section near the base. Forty
feet up, where the tree was a little
more than 6 feet in diameter, a
disk was cut. This has bsen pol
ished, and will occupy a place in
front of the hunters lodge. On
the polished disk have been en-
graved the important historical
events of the old North State from
the time that Sir Walter Raleigh
took possession of the land in his
sovereign's name on July 4, 1854,
through the colonial days, during
the revolution, and up to the pre-
sent time. Another section of the

Talmage once said, Between the ages

and kindness which the chemistry Of
the world has failed to analyze."
Nobody seems TO understand him, and
the little fellow doesn't seem to fit in
anywhere, comfortably, and is often a
source Of trouble, trial and torment,
even to his mother. Indoors or out, he
is the same riotous, restless noisy little
whinwind, continually upsettiDg every
body's calculations, and bringing no end
OF censure, unjustly, upon himself and
others, by his super abundant vitality,
which rnust find an outlet in some dlrec-
ton, which it generally does, TO the nc
small discomfort Of everybody connected
with him.
DO not whip the little fellow. The
world will punish him severely enough,
heaven knows, ard he will have need OF
all the self respect and confidence in his
Own manhood that you can train into
him. Point out to him the path Of rec
titude and honor, and show him that he
cannot afford to do a mean, or cruel &C

his kind from the hasty fiogging which

wrong and humiliation which he never
intended 10 deserve. There will come a
