EntST, they heard of Jesus, and it is
L said of them that they believed
on Him." This type of faith is com
mon in the world to-day Probably nine
out. OF every ten persons to whom you
might psi. the question would declare
that they believed in Christ They
might even be indignant and quickly re-
tort: "Of course l dol Do you take me
for heathen!" But in the majority OF
cases the belief would be one of the head:
the acceptance of the historic fact of, the
Christ, without the heart feeling the new
life throb from contact with that Christ.
This nation and the great nations of Eu-
rope are what are called Christian ma
tons, and the fact of the Christ is gener-
ally known and believed in. In fact.
Jesus is in much favor in a certain
patronizing way with many classes and
sects and ismites, who profess to be
charmed by His life and ruled by His
teachings. The fact Of the Christ is
we'll known and much considered, but IL
is to a large extent head faith in Him.
The fact of the Christ is too cheap and
common to-day, and proves real him
drance oftentimes in the work of bring
ing people to saving knowledge of
Christ. The world is ready and willing to
believe in the Christ, If that belief does
not have to go below the head But the
faith which reveals the Christ as the only
Saviour, and brings man guilty sinner
to His feet for cleansing and salvation;
the faith which leads to yielding of the
will to God and accepting His perfect
will; the faith which can sing:
my hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus blood ana righteousness;
] dare not trust the sweetest frame.
But wholly lean on Jesus name;
this faith is not sought after, and is
not wanted. The world is ready and
willing to hear Of the Christ and to view
Him from afar, but to come into close
contact with Him, to hear Him instead Of
hear Of Him, this is a deeper experience
than is desired, and SO having heard OF
the Christ, the world is content in this
life to so rushing on madly without
feeling the transforming power of that
Christ. and with only an uncertain and
vague hope for the life that is to come.
That IL one kind OF faith.

to the capitol Why was it that all

is manifest in the fact that all these

Mother Nature and we, for lack of
knowledge, cannot apply the key
which, rightly turned, would open up
undreamed of fields of wealth. We
know that we are richer than almost
any of our sister States in beautiful

WHO WILL RESPOND ?


The Or. Groves L. d. s. hospital is
nearing completion. It Is expected that
Il will be ready for dedication by the
October conference. This is a much
needed institution, A place where the
sick and afflicted among the Latter
day Saints may md fitting care and at
tention from physicians, surgeons,
nurses ana attendants of their own
faith has been greatly desired. and this
splendid establishment will fully meet
the long felt need. 1t will not, however,
be exclusive Of anybody. But the build
ing Is one thing and it's equipment Is
another thing.
The munificent bequest by Or. w. II.
Groves reaches the sum Of about $4,000
The Church has met this by a still
larger amount. The Fifteenth ward in
this city. at It's dissolution and division
Of funds gave $4,000 to the hospital
Senator Thomas Kearns has contrib
uted $1,000 and so has Mr.. David Keith
Mrs. Julia Brlxon has generously given
5000 and Mr.. w. y. Barton 500, The
latter amounts viii go towards internal
furnishings and It is IN that direction
that further help is needed. Here is
an opportunity for the benevolent and
well -to-do in the community TO extend
their aid to a most worthy institution.
The sum OF $500 will III up an entire
ward for the sick. $500 will furnish
what is needed for a room OF the best
class, the next grade will cost $3.50 while
cot viii require but $50, These sew
eral amounts will form an endowment
for the purpose desired, The names OF
donors Of such sums VIII be inscribed
on a tablet In the main hall OF the
building. and win surly be registered I'm

who lay up treasures there by sacri-
fec on earth. Now is the right time 20
come to the aid OF the hospital and we
hope the appeal will not be made in
vain.
, The structure stands upon a com
manding site, will be hrst-class In every
respect, It's faculty will be such as no
one can rightly belittlc, all It's appli-
ances will be up-to-date, and every
thing that modern science has demon
strated 10 be essential for the securing
OF the best possible results, Will be OBJ
tained by those who have this impor-
tant enterprise IN hand
We hope 10 hear that responses TO the
request for financial support will be
many and substantial; and that this
splendid project win be aided by the
Saints generally, so that we all may be
proud Of the institution which was
started In spirit Of charity for the
afflicted OF our fellow creatures. and
should be finished and furnished in the
same spirit of love for humanity
