MISSIONARY WORK,

The Luther league topic for Sept. IS
Is based upon Acts. XVI, 1918, and is
devoted to a discussion of the work
of the United Norwegian Lutheran
Church of America Casually called
"The United Church") which was or
ganized in Minneapolis June Is, 1890, by
three Norwegian synods. 1t now num-
bers 1,224 congregations and over $780,
600 baptized members. It has, a for
eign field and one at home. 1t spent
over $4,000 last year in this good
work. 1t also has a mission for the
deaf, dumb and blind at FaribauIt,
Mimi.
A Deaconess Home and Hospital at
Chicago; Orphans Homes at Beloit,
Iowa, and Lake Park, Mimi; an Or
phans' and Old Peoples Home at Wit
tenberg, Wis, testify to the fact that
the United Church has not neglected
the ministry of mercy.
The educational institution of the
United Church are: The Theological
Seminary at st. Anthony Park, st.
Paul, Mimi; st. Olaf College, North
field, Mimi. Augustana College, Can
ton, ). D.; The United Church Normal
School, Madison, Wis.
The following academies, while not
directly controlled or owned by the
United Church, are generally regarded
as being affiliated with it, st. Ansgar
Seminary and Institute, st. Ansgar,
iowa; Scandinavian Academy, Scandi-
naVia, Wis; Pleasant View Luther
college, Ottawa, ILL.,. Concordia Col
lege, Moorhead,l MINI

military prowess; also his ability to
win and keep friends.
David shows himself at this crisis to
be wise concilator. He had heard
of the gallant act of the men of Jabesh
in crossing the Jordan to rescue Sauls
body, and it touched his own generous
heart. But his message of thanks to
them was not devoid of shrewd poll
tics. Congratulating them upon their
brave loyalty to Saul. he promises to
reward them, and solicits their allie
glance to himself as Sauis successor.
Notice how wisely David endeavors to
conciliate and harmonic the different
sections of his divided country.

kingship. Yet ito retin his own posi-

THE CALL OF ISAIAH.

The Epworth league topic for Sept.
13 is found in Isaiah vi, Is.
There was no lack of religion and
worship in the land of Israel Every
high hill had its grove of trees with an
altar in the midst, surrounded by ODE
lisks of stone or columns of wood. On
every street in the city was a shrine
for offerings. Sacrifices were frequent,
and all the life of the people was in
terwoven with acts of devotion. They
could undertake no task without in
voking the favor and help Of the di-
vine powers and asking some sign or
omen to guide them. Nor was this
merely outward show. In the very soul
itself the people stood in awe of the
unseen powers. All was mystery i'm
penetrable, and while they sought life,
health and property they feared the
powers which ruled over all things and
by offerings tried to buy their help.
The times were troublous. The ma
ton must maintain its existence by
constant war. The lust for power and
luxury infected all. Right was not a
matter of reason, but of strength
into such times Isaiah found himself
born and growing to manhood Yet in
the midst Of corruption, violence and
dissoluteness Of society there was a.
small band Of rare spirits who saw be-
yoHu the evils or the time and had
strong faith in divine force which
was shaping events according to a
wise and beneficial purpose. The vice
OF the people must be checked or dis
aster would overwhelm all in ruin.
To these men religion was not a rou-
tine Of sacrifice and feasting and burn
Ing OF incense, not an orgy Of debauch-
cry and blood. God TO them was a,lord
of righteousness who demanded hon
est dealing and purity of SOUL He
was to be propitiated not by offerings
of beasts, but by genuine piety and
penitence of heart. The crimes and
religious corruption of the people ter
rihed them not for their own safety.
but because Of the punishment which
must follow evil.
The commission of Isaiah to go TO
the people as a messenger of Jehovah
IS received and accepted with bound
ing heart.
This is the clew of the wonderful
after life Of Isaiah. He is counselor
to kings. He is preacher Of righteous
ness, recorder of history expounder Of
Gods will, the prophet of true religion
In the midst of every kind of falsity.
He sees with clear vision what no
man had ever seen before He speaks
to the men of his own time and of ali
after time the divine message that Je-
hovah Is ruler of all men and COM
mands to Righteousness and brother
love.

we did eat to the full. forge have

GER" God gave them food. The psalm
list says, He gave them their re-
quest, but sent leanness into their
souls" Their bodies were fed. but
their souls were starved. In their
prosperity they forgot God and neg
lected to live in vital and living
communion with Him, and were con-
ing into tempetation. 4
The application OF this subject to
temperance is easily made and readily
understood. Intemperance in drink is
disastrous IN many ways but 1t is espe-
The soul Is lean indeed when the body
Is full of wine instead of the spirit of
God. Drunkenness dwarfs and de-
stroys soul life. 1t makes it impos-
sible for a man to live in vital and
living communion with his God, and it
makes him an easy victim to the
temptations of life about him.
Along all lines intemperance is a
deadly foe to spirituality. And this is
one of the strongest reasons why it
should be avoided and opposed by ali
who do avoid it. We should not only
obey the injunction. BE not drunken
with wine, wherein Is excess, ~but be
filled with the Spirit" but we should
also strive to lead others to obey this
command and as far as possible to
make it impossible for men to become
intemperate = >.

And the punkin is a-pulling at the vine.
And once more it's Indian summer,
For the weather's smoky blue.
And the little ones are swinging on the

The melon and the cucumber
Are both making much ado.
And the officer seekers seeking Ger the

And we hear the loud exhorters,
For It's now camp meeting time,
And the chickens are a-laying very low;
And the harvest moon gives quarters
To all those without dime,
And lovers stroll where gentle breezes

And Jack Frost his nest has feathered,
And the squirrels are in glee,
And the threshers hum Is heard through

And Wen have husking bee,
