Topic.--The joys Of church membership.
~ Thess. v, Sis. Luke xii. s. tConsscra-
ron meeting)
To many people II may seem impos-
sibie that there should be JOY in at
tending the services Of the house of
God. in belonging 70 the church and
In performing the duties upon the
church member But that there IS JOY
In such associations is undispGted.
Only those wh0 belong to the church
ard attend and support il are capable
Of tes.ifying If the effect Of such ef-
forts and their testimony Is strongly
In favor of the Affirmative Of our sub
5oct Ii is true that there are many
formal members IN our churches who
fad no joy in their church member
ship. but they are incompetent wit
resses. for they are cold and half
hearted in their relations 70 the
church. and half hearted interest In
anything never wins joy from il
The psalmist says. I was glad when
they said unto me. Let US 50 up To the
house Of the Lord" He vas glad
when the time came for friends and
loved ones TO march together TO the
holy city to serve God In the temple.
He also exhorts all men to enter into
Gods house with praise ana joy and
giadness. At the organization Of the
New Testament church on the dag Of
Pentecost we find that the people did
eat their meat with gladness. and sin
gleness Of heart pralsing God and hav-
ing favor with all the people" When
TIE church was established in Sa-
maria. there was Joy in that city"
Hearty. sincere and faithful member
ship in the church Of Christ has al
ways brought Joy, and 1t win do so
stn.
Joy Is experienced in church mem
bership from many phases OF church
life.
/. There is the JOY that comes from
ne performance OF duty. Church
membership Is a duty. Christ asks It
Of US, promising that II we VIII con
fess Him upon earth He wiz con
TESS US before His Father which is in
heaven The performance Of duty al
ways brings JOY Many have united
with the church not because they felt
Inclined 10 do so, but simply as duty.
and have found great pleasure -
church membership.
2 There is the joy of Christian Eel
iowship One OF the sweetest Joys c.
nfe IS fellowship with those about Us,
and the most blessed fellowship Of life
Is that possessed by Christians who
are bound together by the common tie
that binds item 70 Christ.
3, There Is the joy Of service Scrv-
ice produces JOY. 1T is more blessed
to give than TO receive" whether we
give money or gifts or service. Selas.-
ness breeds dissatisfaction. while self
denial for others brings joy ana hap.
piness. For the Joy that was set before
Him Christ endured the suffering and
shame Of the cross. and IF we suffer
with Him we shall also reign with
Him" The reward of service is al
ways a crown Of JOY.

they were received with cries Of Mad

and his family were also saluted in

on visiting the prescribed citizen. and

Increasing the Corn Yield.

II this years plans for increasing the
corn crop of the corn belt Of the middle
west succeed corn is going TO be a fit
subject for conspiracy to limit pro
duction. after the fashion Of the new
cotton movement in the south. Two
billion bushels. or thereabout. is a fair
corn crop. and the country can absorb
it conveniently. but if an extra billion
Of bushels should be produced in 1908
the price would fall off in a startling
fashion. \ drop of 80 per cent in corn
prices would mean much cheaper
meats and also cheaper WHISTLES.
And all these things are already pre-
dicted freely by western grain experts.
for the western farmer is determined
TO raise corn scientifically hereafter.
He is going to get the worth of his
labor and his land
The general expectation is that
cheaper meats will be the most i'm
