HOE YOUR OWN ROW
BAPTIST CHURCH TEXT
Interesting Discourse BY Pastor Deliv'
cred Yesterday Morning.

Hoe out your own row." This was
the subject chosen by Rev. c. Sidney
Maddox. for the Sunday morning dis
course at the Baptist church. The
text was taken from Genesis Al, "Sin
I,ieth at the Door" The sermon in
part was as follows:
The personal element of sin; we can
see the weeds in the other fellows
yard. even if they are so high in our
own that we have to go to the fence
to. see over A whole wood yard in
our own yard does not prevent us from
seeing the splinter in the eye of the
other fellow When the church MEM
Der is talking about his fellow mem
bers, If he could only see his own sins,
he would be ashamed of what he was
saying.
L When our sins are found out, we are
always ready to put up an excuse.
Eve made the apple sauce so tempt
ing that Adam blamed her for the fall
Of mankind. She in turn blamed the
willy serpent Conditions give us no
excuse for sin. God expects us to meet
any and all conditions. We must win
a handicapped race and surmount any
and all obstacles of environment. In
born nature is no loop hole at which
we may get out; if one man has to
exert ,one-hundred per cent of moral
energy in an effort to control his in
bred :. disposition, while his brother
controls his quiet, easy temper, with
only ten per cent, let him retain the
full power and develop the moral dy
namfcs. and control himself Because
our fathers have "eaten sour grapes"
is no reason for us to frown. We are
constantly showing the blame of our
sins backward upon our ancestors,
until it finally gets back to Adam. and
poor old Adam is compelled TO carry
the blame of all our cussedness.
The sin that hurts the church as a
body. the sin that hurts the Christian,
is the individual personal sin, the
one that lieth at the door. Hoe out
your own row." clean before your own
door Pull the weeds from your own
backyard before you mock at the high
grass in your neighbors. But the in
dividual Christian must clean his own
heart to get right himself with his
God. Not hurt his fellow members
feelings by short cutting words, but
think of his own uncIean heart. Brush
the sin from the door, let the light of
heavenly sunshine into your SIM filthy
soul. and thus prepare yourself to car
ry the precious, beautiful, clean, holy
gospel of Jesus Christ to lost men,

RAILROAD RUM0R
NOW SET AT REST
C. M. Scott Tells Why Work on the
New Depot Has Been Delayed.

The failure Of the M. & p people
to start the work of moving the p. &
E depot last week as had been ex-
pected, has given rise to several I'M
pleasant rumors to the effect that the
plan had been abandoned and for the
time being at least, the depot would
remain where it now stands and that
would continue to suffer the disad-
vantage of having two stations with
trains stopping at both of them.
Superintendent c. NJ. Scott of the
NJ. & p was here Saturday afternoon
and was approached by the reporter
on the subject. He stated that after
all definite plans had been made to
move the depot, certain things had
come up in connection its location
that caused the company to hesitate
a short time. The matter having been
satisfactorily adjusted, Mr.. Scott said
that it was expected that work would
be resumed this week The bridge and
building gang had been located here
for nearly a week and a few prepara-
tory moves have. already been made.
Asked regarding the motor cars that
the company has given promise of in
stalling between Mesa and Phoenix at
an early date, Mr.. Scott said that he
still had a hope that this would be
accomplished this fall but that was
about all the encouragement ne could
offer at the present time
