NERVOUSNESS OF MAN
 IN THE SIGHT OF GOD
The Subject of Hr. HOwell'e Address
 at the Camp Meeting.

Yesterdays services at the camp meeting grounds were largely attended at all of the meetings and the day was filled with them. At an early hour in the morning a prayer service was held attended not only by those who are camped at the grounds but by many who went out from the city. At 9 o'clock Sunday school began and at 10 o'clock there was an experience meeting. At II o'clock Rev. R. r. Howell, presiding elder of the Los An geles conference, preached a sermon, taking for his text Gods value of hu- man life" The preacher found his text in Isaiah 1912. and in an eloquent and convincing manner spoke most inter- estigly. He said in part:
 "These words tell of Gods value of human life. This is a prophecy of dev- estation by war, so great that men were to be so scarce that gold would lose it's precioUsness. The Babylonish empire was destroyed because human life was held in contempt. Babylon, the glory of Kingdoms, the beauty of the ChaI.. dees was Overthrown as Sodom and GOmorrah. Human life in the sight of God is more than all Organizations and institutions are useful only as they minister to the wants of man.
 |" I'll fares the land to hastening ills
 prey;
 Where wealth accumulates and men
 decay
 "There is nothing in all the earth so precious to God as man. In all may be seen the trace of the hand divine. Human life was the sublimest express ion of the loftiest thought in creation. and the object of his tenderest care to the present hour.
 ''There is nothing so alarming as the cheapness of human life as held byI some. We should be stirred to Chris tian activity against the organized agency in the traffic of precious girl life. The conception of life is held too low by far too many One of the most brilliant agnostics has said When on the horizon of the future not a single star of hope appears any one is justi- fled in committing suicide Poor misguided mind; poor man. Ever since the star was seen in the east the star of hope is on the horizon of every soul
 Further God has shown his valua- ton of human life in ample and rich provision for the physical side of his nature. Tn the sweat of thy face thou shalt earn thy bread is the word. Too many make the physical side of nature the highest. What shall l eat? What shall I drink? WherewithaI shall l be clothed? How far below Gods stand ard to make this the chief part in life
 "The higher side is the intellectual God would have us think. Christianity compels thought. No man can enter the Kingdom of heaven until he thinks. God ever seeks man to catch his

thought and to interpret his will. Cos pei does not bind intellect but frees it. PauPs word is prove all things, hold fast that which is good There is too much taken for granted in church and state. It will be a sad day in Metho- dism or in any other church when it comes to believe a thing simply be- cause a preacher of thsA faith has said it. There are no clasps on the Bible. The layman in the pew has the same right to read and take courage from the promises of God as any minister. No man has any right to come between any soul and it's God Men of great and profound thought have bowed at the feet of Jesus since the wise men found him in a manager. Great Brit aims leading thinker, humbly sang All to Him I owe God would have us all think
 Every bursting bud, every opening flower and sprig of grass every sing ing bird. rolling stream and laughing star, every particle of dust from car riage wheel and sparkling sand on shore and beach calls for thought While the highest Christian university course is to be sought, let no youth be discouraged if such is denied, as God
 
 above and the earth beneath to call out the mind in earnest thought.
 Gods value of man is shown in the provision which is made for the high est side of mans nature. He has not provided for physical and intellectual and left the spiritual life destitute. He meets us with pardon through the blood of his own beloved son. Pardon for all our sins and then peace, a peace that the world cannot give. His valu- ation is lastly shown in a promise of life beyond. So deeply fixed is this that the most brilliant agnOstic of the age said in an hour of grief Tn the night of death hope sees a star and love can hear the rustic of wing" Among his last words were those about the life beyond, as was his last poem to a daughter on 'immor- tality' And all why? Because he be- Ionged to eternity. Tn the valley of the shadow of death he listened to the depths of the soul and he could not hush the voice, Man, thou shalt never die the slogan of the soul.
 Since you have been for single moment there will never be a single moment when you will not be. Death is but an event in life. Who would belittle himself to say We are poor orphans of nothing alone on lonely privilege to mount the hills of life and shore-born of a brainless nature who knew what she bore when it is your privilege to mount the hills of life and rejoice as the sons of God"
 In the afternoon the services were turned over to the Salvation army. In the evening there was a league rally and last evening MT. Howell preached his second sermon for the day, Faith Hope and Charity" At the close of the evening service four men went for ward and prOfessed their sins and two were converted. The meetings will continue all week with a sermon each and evening. On Wednesday afterOon the Woman's Home Mission societies of the valley will meet at the grounds for a devotional and business
