Texl, Ex. II :15: "And Moses
built an altar, and called the name
of it Jehovah -nissi."
Rephidim is one of the battle
fields of Scripture. When Israel
prevailed over Amelek on that
field, Moses took care that God
should have all the credit and
glory, and God was careful that
Israel and the generations to fol-
low should have the comfort and
encouragement of that triumph.
The man OF God accordingly ar
ranged for the erection of a men,
orial altar inscribed: "Jehovah-
Nissi, the Lord, my banner;" and
Jehovah gives orders that Moses
should prepare a memorial VOL
ume giving the story of the strug-
gle and rehearse the recorded
facts in the ear of Joshua. So
journal of The days doings was
written, containing a record Of
what had been and of what was
soon to follow in the complete
overthrow of this hostile power.
Moses also reared an altar on the
field of battle and gave it a name
to express his faith in God and
to own the part he plays in hui
man affairs. The sentiment ex-
pressed in that long past age by
the memorial volume and altar,
is the same as that which was
uttered by the Demosthenes of
the American Revolution many
centuries later in the eastern end
OF our city, i. e., "The battle is
not to the strong, nor, the race
to the swift"
The people of the early ages
believed in memorials and along
the track OF time left their re
cords on paper, tablet or stone.
We should also value our mem.
orials. If we forget the past,
future generations will forget US.
A people who do not value hero
ism in others will never display
it themselves. If we build no
monuments to the deeds of the
fathers, it is sure sign that our
children will find nothing In our
lives deserving of commemora-
ton.
