The comparative statistics show 4
very substantial growth in the popu-
lation of the district, but there are
gains not noted which are even NOR
gratifying. The decrease in the
number of cases of truancy and IN
the number Of case of corporal pun
ishment is matter of congratula-
ton. Pupils, evidently are main
tanning a better attitude toward the
school, and teachers are not attempt
ing to govern by brute force.
High school teachers and students
continue to make the best of their
temporary quarters in the churches
of the Methodist, Christian and Pres
byterian denominations, and while
the work done there can not, of ne
cessity, be of the kind done in quar-
tiers better adapted to high school
work, we feel we are very fortunate
in having any place at all in which
to meet, and are deeply sensible OF
our obligations to the above-namei

of the text is just as necessary for
you and me today as it was for
Peter and Thomas in the days OF
our Lord and Master. But we
may ask the question, Why have
faith? The answer seems obvious
to the thoughtful mind. Faith IS
one Of the necessities Of the human
mind. We accept many things as
true for which we do not have
positive proof. We seem TO be
compelled to act upon convictions
and theories which at the present
time at least we are unable to
prove. In the ordinary affairs Of
Of life we take much for granted.
For example we do not know
positively that the sun will shine
upon the earth tomorrow but we
act upon the faith that day viii
follow night in the future as in
the past. We do not know that
there will be a time of harvest
this year but the farmer acts upon
his belief that seed time will be
followed by harvest according TO
the promise of God, and that the
seasons will come in their order.
We are not sure that we can trust
to the honesty Of any one, yet we
are under the necessity OF exercis-
ing faith in our fellow-men.
Otherwise the business of the
could not be carried on.
Moreover we must have faith in
ourselves also for unless we do
nave confidence in the abilities

There are two prominent
characters in history who illustrate
TO my mind the difference between
trusting in one star and trusting
in God. Those two persons are
Napoleon and St. Paul. There is
no doubt that the former is one
Of the greatest men Of modern
times and the latter is one Of the
greatest OF all time. But while
Napoleon was OF the world Paul
belonged to the kingdom OF God.
Consider briefly the careers Of
these two men. There is no
question that in the early part Of
his public life Napoleon performed
for France and for his fellowmen
a great service. BY his military
genius he brought law and order
out Of the anarchy and confusion
that followed the revolution. But
after he had obtained absolute
control of affairs seems TO have
become infatuated with himself and
unable to brook any opposition TO
his viii. He became proud and
imperiOus. There came a turning
point in his career. At the battle
Of Leipsic il was necessary for his
army 10 retreat but such was his
pride that ne would not accept the
inevitable and retreat in the night
but to show his audacity he
retreated in the day time. The
result was his army was almost

It's regret at last or the life of

The one thing that makes all the
difference is that Paul had faith in
God while Napoleon had faith in
his star. Let us heed the words
OF Jesus when He says to us

with which our Creator has
endowed US we viii not be able 10
accomplish much III life.
Since faith, therefore, is a
necessary function of the soul Of
man, it is only right that it should
be exercised in the right direction.
Some, indeed, trust in luck relying
upon fortune for success in life.
Some again rely upon wealth or
wits or social or political influence
to help them through. But it is
folly for one 10 ignore his own
religious nature and forget the
God from whom all real help must
come. But this is an age Of
irreverence. The tendency is to
leave out of sight the dignity and
worth of the spiritual and eternal
and to emphasize the importance
of human knowledge and power.

1t is folly TO trust in the creature

admonishes us 10 have faith in
God and there is great reason for
following His advice for if il is
wisdom 10 trust a person who is
able TO help us we ought to trust

A SERMON
A sermon presched in the First Baptist { .urch
Bookings, ;. d., by GEORGE f. MORPHY
and published by request.

Text-Have faith in God, Mark II: %.
In these words our Saviour
encourages Peter and all His
disciples 10 trust in God. 1t is
good advice and should be needed;
especially since it has the sanction
OF Jesus Christ our Lord. For
Christ spoke with authority,
although it was not the arbitrary
authority OF an oriental ruler, nor
the presumptuouS authority Of a
Greek oracle, nor the dogmatic
authority OF a Jewish rabbi, but
the Divine authority Of spiritual
character and eternal truth. We
are sometimes told that the age
in which Jesus lived was an age Of
~credulity, ignorance and supersti-
ton, and that such teaching as is
found in the text while it was
suited TO that time is not at all
adapted TO the more enlightened
times in which we moderns are
living. But although there is in
this age much enlightenment, yet
there is much credulity also, at
any rate, mar is much the same
in all ages and the instruction that
was adapted TO his moral and spir-
needs al one period, will
probably not be out of place in
any age. The injunction, then,

Secretary Unwilling to Give Ru- nOfs Official Notice Japan
 Makes No Complaint
ONLY JAPANESE POLITICS
 SAY OFFICIAL CIRCLES
Agitation Over San Francisco Incident Due to Opposition Party-Fear the Press May Make
 Trouble.

Washington, D. C., June 11.-Secretary Root today positively declined to make any slatenea. respecting the Japanese situation. This was done with the full knowledge of the uneaslncss which cx- ists in financial circles Ie the result os the circulation of war iumors
 It may be said, however, that the sec retarys refusal was passed solely upc;l his unwillingness to accord the rumors official notice and not upon the belief on his part that there is the least danger of war, or even of a breach of the friendly relations that now exist between America and Japan. The fact is, that in the off cial mind the present agitation is due to the working of internal Japanese politics "a strenuous opposition party in Japan. seeking for weapons to attack the party in power, is appealing to the populace and to the pride of the Japanese to affront the United States. The complaint, it is stated here, is principally caused by an overpopulation of Japan and the popular wirh [ admission into the United States.
 The situation was summed ID by a very high official today in tl4c following response to the question as to what could be said to allay the unea5ineSS m thls country:
 If the administration has any fear tf trouble with Japan following the disturb ances in San Francisco, no responsible official is willing to admit it. On she contrary, the state department officials feel hopeful that everything will come out all right and that the situation between the two countries will gradually become normal'
 That Japan has made no complaint 10 the United States was the statement made most positively in responsible quarters to- day. there Is no trouble between the two countries and there is no danger of war.
 The greatest fear is from the agitation carried on by certain newspapers in both countries and from th,s officials admit that there Is constant danger. Asiue from this, officials will not admit there is anything which cannot be adjusted in the ordinary diplomatic way.

ston of Birmingham. The official vote on these two men was Bankhead 4S,362 and Johnston 36,l07. The natural inference is therefore, that Colonel Bankhead will be chosen successor
 The action taken in the primary had nc legal force, however. and 1t is barely possible that the action may in measure be ignored and the whole question thrown open to the lawmakers of the state. In case this is done Bankhead and Johnston will both be candidates for the place, but if 1t becomes an open light it is gen erally conceded that there will be numer- ous aspirants and the fight may develop into one of the most memorable in the history of the state.
