Rev. F.. II. jerks Believes He Has
Located Historical spot.

Rev. f. II. jerks Believes He Has
Located Historical spot.
Rev. p H. jerks last night related to the
members of the First Presbyterian church
some of the interesting experiences of his
trip to Palestine early in the spring. His
talk was one OF a series he 10 giving on
the subject.
In his lecture Rev. Mr.. jerks laid
claim to the honor OF discovering the place
where the prophet Elijah killed the priests
of Baal on Mount Carmel. He said he
believed Mount Carmel mentioned in the
Bible meant not only the mount itself. but
the foothills around 1t. II was upon one
of these foothills he located the spot
where he believes the defying OF the priests
took place. Before II stretches a large
plain where he said he could imagine the
chariots of Ahab drawn up. Mount Carmel
was visited on the way from the sea coast
to Nazareth. The journey was undertaken
under a number of diflculties so great
! that some of the party turned back before
it was completed. The method OF travel
was largely on horseback.
One of the incidents of the trip was
sail on the Sea Of Galilee, which ended
in a race among the boats in which the
members OF the party we're making the trip
The natives, he said, think more OF the
Mohammedans than they do OF the Chris
tians, declaring they are more honest and
truthful. The party visited the traditional
localities of number of the incidents in
the life OF Christ and many places where
incidents mentioned in the Old Testament
took place.
Palestine, he said, is in deplorable condi-
ton in spite of the fertility OF the soil in
many parts, owing to the excessively high
taxes demanded by the sultan. The tax
| on olive trees is so heavy that in many
places the people cut down the trees to
I avoid the payment of the duty. Large
orchards of mulberries are being planted
in order TO furnish food for the silkworm,
which is being introduced into the country.

CHARACTER OF MEMS MOVEMENT
Outline of work Given by Rev.
a. ". A. Mcbride.

IT, NJ ~ WFhEAuCs
Rev. r. b. A. Mcbride at the Central
United Presbyterian church Sunday morn
ing spoke of the mems movement in the
Reorganization. lie said
THE movement is not exactly peculiar
TO the United Presbyterian church. sim
liar movement is on foot in the Presbyte-
rian church and many other large denom-
nations. Nor is the movement new, for
there have been mems clubs, leagues. etc.
in many congregations and denominations
for years.
"The mems organization is the outgrowth
Of Sabbath school work and young peo-
pies work. In the later years men trained
in this work are forced to drop it because
they are no longer young. There remains
no specific work assigned them and trained
10 work along the lines Of organization they
find themselves with nothing to do. Nat
urally and logically the men have looked
about for some organization whereby they
might carry on work of service for the
Lord
THE Mems league is not another organi-
cation in the church. It is simply ar
rangement by which the men in the church
are enabled TO render service. The Mems
league proposes to help every man to find
and then to perform definite task. There
are many objections to the league. We are
told churches already are overorganized-
that many pastors and layworkers find all
their time taken up in keeping the wheels
of the machinery going.
After a careful study OF the church
needs ! am prepared to say most emphatic
ally that In my judgment the church is not
Overorganized.
Il venture To say the church is ineff-
GENTLY organized The church never will

vidual i'm II is conscious OF responsibility

PETER ACTS IN XAME OF CHRIST
Power Of Attorney from Jesus Text OF
ReN. =. II. McDoMell.

Power Of Attorney from JeHus Text OF
REV. r. ~. Mcdowell.
with power Of attorney from Jesus
was the subject of the sermon yesterday
morning by Rev. p. n. Mcdowell Of Inn
manuel Baptist church. He took his text
from the story Of the healing OF the lame
man by Peter In part he said
Peter acted not in his own name. but
in the name Of Jesus and he acted with
authority. He goes henceforth to act with
power of attorney. and this right was given
to the rest OF the disciples and has de-
seconded to YOU and me 1t is not confined
to the ministry. but It belongs to all OF
those who are in Christ We are not to
pray in our own name nor to preach remis-
sion OF sins in our own name, but in the
name of Christ
Peter said: why gaze We at us? We are
but men. We are only humble followers
Of Jesus. hut by the power of Jesus this
man is made whole 1t Is better TO stand
in the name Of Jesus than in your own un-
worthy name and your more unworthy
strength.
while Peter acted in Jesus name he
acted with authority. There Is a grandeur
In the words Of Peter here. lie knows he
is acting within his rights. He knows he is
not exceeding his authority when he says,
Rise and walk When we go rout to preach
in the name NJ Jesus Christ we go with the
seal and sanction Of the Godhead. We are
acting within our power of attorney when
we guarantee to a sn-sick soul eternal life
Jesus has given us the right. Would He
send us out in the world to do His business
without clothing us with the authority?
Jesus has a work and authority here
and the church is here for the express pur-
pose of doing that work.
You act as an attorney for Jesus in car
rying comfort to sick souls and in giving
promises of eternal life But eternal life,
comfort and forgiveness OF sins Is not yours
but you are acting for Christ Whose they
are"

TOO MUCH EMOTION IN RELIGION
ChrIstian should serve God and Not
His Impulse.

1.-THE Religion Of the VIII" was the sub
ject OF Rev. l. o. Baird's discourse at
st. Marys Avenue Congregational church
Sunday morning I'VE are living in an
emotional age" said DR.. Baird. Each
age has its emphasis. Christ made his APP
peal for religion not upon the emotions
but as a religion of the will He said. II
We love me keep my commandments
There are three governing things which
control our religious or religion. They are
that OF emotion, intellectual understand
ing and the demand Of Jesus for obedience
With Christ the supreme thing was obli-
cation. In the old testament the religious
feeling was an appeal to fear, which was
succeeded by intellectual wisdom, which
was the religion taught and Influenced by
the priests. solomon had that wisdom that
would MI a dozen motto calendars with
wise aphorisms, yet he could not bring up
his son to fear God.
Jeremiah called upon the men to base
their religion on something deeper than
this, a religion which exercised loving kind
ness, judgment and will. We are governed
too much by emotional and too little by the
obedience OF religion. The Christian should
not obey his feelings, but his Master The
work Of God is not measured by some
body's handshake. We are too prone to
make our creed Mt our conduct rather than
that our conduct Mt our creed. Obedience
is the origin Of spiritual knowledge"
