When Jesus commissioned his
disciples to give the gospel to the
would, he promised them power; a
power greater than all opposing
forces. He also promised them His
personal leadership.
What is required of the church
in carrying out the plan of the
Lord for saving the world? Only
one thing: that is to obey orders.
These are not many nor unreason-
able. The first command is to pray.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be
done, on earth as it is in Heaven
What a difference would soon
be made everywhere if this prayer
were fully answered. What a differ.
ence it would make in the nation,
state, city and home.
Jesus also commanded, Go into
all the world and preach the Cos.
pei to every creature" And He
commands His church to GIVE.
The church is thus to be advanced
be blessed and to be a blessing tc
the world. = ~
The work of evangelizatiom was
to start at Jerusalem. This put
the stamp of the Saviour's approval
upon city evangelization, after
which the church was to move into
home mission fields, into Judea, anc
pass on into Symaria, partly q
foreign field, and not to stop unit
the world was encompassed. Thi!
plan is still to be followed.
A missionary in the western par
of the state, was one day asked
what he was doing out there
on the prairie. He replied;
4 am recruiting members for thu
city churches. And this is largely
true: The first great responsibility
of any nation is home evangelization
! This is a home mission republic
and must be kept so in order to b,
a safe base of supply from which
to carry the gospel to other lands
What is the responsibility of tn,
Presbyterian church in the HON,

share in the solution Of the Norman
problems which is live issue, for il

physical conditions is concerned
the whole county team ought to be
in fine fettle.
It is somewhat different with the
members of the city team. How
ever, Mayor Pogue has had strenu-
Gus year Of it and it is safe to
presume that his physical condition
is about right. However, City Attor-
ney Gibbons and Chief of Police
Knox are in condition that would
rival the prize porkez at county
fair, and they must needs take off
some Of their averdupois if they wish
to play in Saturdays game.
President Gould, being the head
of the new lumber company, is
always in good condition.
City Clerk Maloy will probably
not play, but he will undoubtedly be
present to lend his usual moral sup
port to Mayor Pogue.
Judge A. Gilmour of Blackjack
has been engaged to have charge of
the Kangaroo court and the spec
tators are warned to be decorous or
there will be trouble with the punish
ment of prison staring them in the
face. --# s.. s
The net proceeds of the game will
be devoted toward paying the

Everyone should attend the game
as it's for "blud" and no quarter
will be given at any stage of the
proceedings.

Exaggerated Reports Of Local Conditions

Theme, THE Relation of the
Church to the Crisis of the Ma
tion," 10y.
A national crisis is recognized
on every hand. The great prob
lens of the nation are coming to
a focus-point. They all converge
upon the issue of the perpetuity
of the nation itself. Columbia,
the Gem of the Ocean," is in the
fness fire. Can a Christian demo-
cracy endure and perpetuate its
blessing to posterity?
The real reasons for alarm are
mainly three: First, the rapid
growth and dominance of cities.
At the present rate of growth, within
fifteen years, there will be ten
million more people living in cities
of more than 5000 inhabitants
than all the rest of the country.
Second, the flood of immigration
pouring into our land from South
ern Europe, a million year. Third,
the changing basis of life. The
foundations of our benefcient insti-
tutions were laid by man of the
simple protestant faith, who believed
that men live. not by bread alone.
But we are rapidly getting off the.
faith basis and upon the bread basis.
This is our crisis time. We had
one, and a revolution from the
mother country saved us. We had
another and the war of the rebellion
resulted in holding the nation intact.
The crisis today is civil and is one
that cannot be successfully passed
through anything as easy as war and
as cheap as blood. 1t will require a
living sacri6ce.'' The whole
problem is primarily religious one
and the solution Of this great problem
lies with the church. The disciples
of Christ are the salt of the earth,"
the light of the world" and the
church is the agency for making
disciples.
The Gospel of the Lord, Jesus
Christ, is the only seed that pro-
duces fruit of enduring righteousness
1t is the power of God unto saliva
ton for man-and for a nation.
The problem of home missions is the
greatest national problem of the
generation. The great need is for a
new patriotism" that will make
men give their lives living sacrifice
upon the alter of their country and
their God.
This will mean a type of aggres-
slve evangelism not yet tried by our
church. The church has the means
and the promise of power. In order
to overtake the task, three things
are necessary, primarily: First, a
more practical adoption of every
local church to the needs of it's COM
munity. Second, christians must
consecrate their means to their God.
The present income of our mis-
sionery agencies is totally inadequate
to overtake the problem. The re-
sources of the kingdom of Christ,
under the gospel dispensation, in
view of the gospel commission, GER
tainly ought not 10 be less than the
proportion required under the old
law dispensations. g.. Z

Thursday Morning.

DR.. George Soltau. Theme,
Baptism of the Spirit" 49,. -.
The first use of this phrase is
Mathew 3:11, He shall Baptize you
in the Holy Spirit" This is John
the Baptist's phrase. The second,
Acts 3:5 Eye shall be baptized in
the Holy Spirit not many days
hence" This is Christ's use, of the,
phrase. John states two facts which
are world wide Behold the Lamb of
God Who taketh away the sin of the
world" and He shall baptize you
in the Holy Spirit"
The coming of the Holy Spirit on
the day of Pentecost was to dwell
in, in-fll and empower. Not so in
the Old Testament. Then there was
no dwelling in individual, hence the
coming of the Holy Spirit on the
day of Pentecost was the beginning
of new dispensation. First Cor.
1918 is a most important text;
For in one Spirit we were all bap-
tised into one body, A past fact,
not blessing to be asked for at the
moment of the surrendered will.
We become members of the mystical
body of Christ. This is conversion
or regeneration. And we are all
made to drink of one spiritual drink.
This is spiritual experience. This
was the joy of the disciples on the
day of Pentecost. There are eight
phrases of the work of the Holy
Spirit in the experience of Individual
existance. First, born of the Spirit;
second, sealed with the Spirit; third,
in-dwelling of the Spirit; fourth,
milling of the Spirit; fifth. the
empowering: sixth, teaching; seventh,
guiding; eight, emptying of our
inhrmities.
The in.dweiling is not a new fact,
not second blessing, but merely a
recognition of the fact. The in
filling of the Spirit may seem to be
a new truth, like a third blessing.
It comes through allaying hold on
the fact through faith. To be led
by the Spirit is fuller truth, where!
Salvation is a small part of our
religion. Led out into the service
and it, reward is a fuller life, quite
different from life of mere pleasure
and personal enjoyment. -
In these days we hear much Of
the doctrine of speaking with
tongues" Those who pretend to
have this gift appeal to the scrip.
lures, particularly to the book OF
Acts, to the passage All spake with
tongues. .,- F.
The movement is worldwide. In
the early church it was an emergency
gift to meet the case. Paul says the
gift is not to be coveted and not to be
used except when someone is present
to interpret. These people, among
whom are the Holy Rollers, are self
deceived and demon-possessed.
