CHRISTIAN tNDEAvOR TOPICS.
January A--"What II Christ Came TO Our
TOWN." John 4:18.3o: 39.i1

Scripture Verses-Josh 1:9: lisa. 43:
2; Matt. 1:23; John 1:1-141S; / John
1:3; Ps. 1868; Isa 1913, 8; Heb. 10: 5,
g. 1 John 1924.
Lesson Thoughts.
If all the politicians and all the in.
dividuals of our town could realize
that Christ knows "all that ever they
did," would he be a welcome guest ?
Would you be glad to see him?
Christ is in our town; we recognize
in churches, schools, hospitals, benev.
olent institutions, the influence of his
dwelling here.
Christ tarries only where he is in.
vited to stay, and never refuses to ac.
cept sincere invitation.
Selections.
Mr.. McNutt, the "dinnerpail evan.
gelist." says that whenever he hears
1T said of man that he has died "and
gone to meet his God" he wonders
where the man has been all his life,
and where God has been. that they
have not been meeting every day,
1t is the tendency of this age to
think much about what We shall do
for Christ. and too little about Christi
presence in our hearts. But if he
abides in us, the works will follow
inevitably. Our hearts are like dark,
unhealthy room, and we go about with
disinfectants, thinking to make it
sweet and pure before we dare open
the windows and the shutters. Let in
the light and the fresh air, and they
VIII sweeten the room as nothing else
can ever sweeten it,
o our Father, we are with Thee
when we know 1t not! Make us clean.
make us strong, that all our life may
speak to Thee, and answer back Thy
iovc.
Why cannot we slip our hands into
His each day, walk trustingly over
that days appointed path, thorny or
howery, crooked or straight. knowing
that evening will bring US sleep,
peace and home?
Never a trial that He Is not there,
Never burden that He doth not bear
Never a sorrow that He doth not
share,
Moment by moment I'm under His
care.
Prayer-O thou ever present Jesus,
unto whom all hearts are open and all
desires are known, help us to realize
thy gracious presence with US. Tarry
with us, in our town, to reprove
wIongdoing and to encourage right
eousness and charity Rule in cur in
diyidual lives. we beseech thee. and
make us happy to be with thee and
do thy holy will. Amen.

DR.. Justin Edwards said that 10000
drunkards who took the pledge had been

In Great Britain in 1901 there were 5000
deaths directly due to alcohol, while the

In Maine, Kansas and North Dakota

The legislator who will vote to fasten
the saloon system on the necks Of an un.

EPWORTH LEAGUE MEETING TOPICS.
January All Christ Should Come to Our
Town. John l. 1880, 3o.42.)

Should he come, he would find occa.
sion for grief Material splendors
did not blind him to the real city.
The people were to his clear eye the
town. Behind all the glCries of TEN.
pie and palace he saw Priest, Phar.
isee, Scribe, Sadducee Herodian,
many of them rotting with spiritual
leprosy. and the tickle. fanatical mob
ready to shrek Cruelty him!" Over
their moral and spiritual ruin, over
their impending woe he wept.
Should he visit our town what to
him would tie, in themselves, cur mag.
nificence of temple and palace, our
civic halls. our luxuries cleaned from
a globe. our expanding commerce, our
huge factories, bursting warehouse,
piled up gold, even our libraries, art
galleries, schools? Would he not,
now as then, look through them all to
the men?
Looking at them, the real town, he
would find much at which to weep:
In municipal life, rottenness, the peo-
pie too often asleep while grafters
heap up plunder and destroy for gain
the bodies and souls of men; great
vices winked at or protected by law;
law itself often defied and spit upon
with impunity and trampled under foot
by those sworn to enforce It, In bus.
!ness life. selfishness. strife, oppres-
zion. greed. lying, fraud. In social
life, heartlessness, frivolity. empti-
ness, frequent impurity, slavery to the
painted harlot Pleasure, and to the
blind god Fashion: the gambling
hell, the brothel the saloon. unmolest-
ed, drive the youth by platoons to the
pit. In family life. frequent divorce,
nate instead of love. jangling instead
Of joy, family discipline relaxed. the
family altar in ruins. In church life,
mercantiism, Journalism, phariseeism,
hollow profession, religionlsts not a
few with the lip saying, Lord, Lord"
but ready for consideration to be-
tray Of cruelty the Son OF God afresh.
But, he would have also cause for
Tladness. He would see that nine
teen centuries of his Gospel have not
been in vain. Looking at the world
of business and industry. he would
find cause for gladness. Slavery has
gone. Honest labor is respected. A
thousand evils that made men groan
in Chrlst's day have vanished The
spirit of strife is gradually giving
way to the Gospel of peace.
In the social world. over against the
frivolity. emptiness, impurity OF the
smart set. Christ would see whole
some social life of multitudes such as
his world never dreamed of. Great
charities. in his name. are blessing
thousands. both of those who receive
and those who give Institutions of
every sort are aiding to refine and
the social intercourse of men.

New Year Thoughts.

:, The thoughts OF the new year are not
thoughts OF the ease 3f attainment, se-

OF the. severity of the pilgrim path OF life
and OF the toilsomeness OF the track, and
these thoughts would prove disheartening

cheer. He who has helped Us hitherto will
not desert US now.--Sunday-Sehoo Times.
