WOODROW EEPOUNDS
MESSAGE OF CHEER
Pastor Shows Good of Hap
Ply Words Such as Jesus
Gave.

From the text son. be Of good cheer;
thy sins are forgiven thee" Dr. Samuel
n odrow. pastor of the First Con-
E.-....ouaI Church preached this morn
ing ON the subject, Good Cheer"
There is a world of comfort in the
word itself" said Dr. Woodrow. 1T is
IKE a well spread table to a hungry
man; like an ocean breeze on a suItry
summer day; like a ray Of sunlight over
a wet winJry landscape; like a refresh
ing shower after "a prolonged drought
BE OF good cheer; this is the joyous
message Of our Master. A cheer is the
expression of loyalty enthusiasm, vic
tory. Men groan in derision. in suffer
i'm defeat, but when all goes we'll
t..- enthusiasm is manifest in cheers.
To cheer is to s0lace and comfort.
81 is TO infuse life, courage hope, ami
nation. All this fuuness of meaning
and more than we can grasp. Jesus put
into His message of good cheer.
To the paIsied man. who was also a
sinner, and who doubted whether Jesus
would receive. heal, and forgive him,
came the assuring words. BE of good
cheer, thy sins are forgiven thee His
bodily paralysis was but a type Of his
spiritual bondage. Now he Is 10 be set
free.
The world is i'm bondage to sin. Men
lose hope and courage I'm the conflict
unless they can hear the words Of
Jesus. BE of good cheer He takes
His place by their side and makes them
more than conQuerors in every moral
conflict.
TO the disciples in the midst OF the
storm tossed lake, as they. were toiling
'be OF good cheer and Immediately
there was a great calm. Life is a voy-
age. Many little vessels sink before
they cross the haToOT bar; others before
they are out of sight of land. Many
strike on hidden rocks or are wrecked
on treaCheTOus shoals; others, after out
riding the storm, bring a cargo safe
into port. on life's great ocean there
are millions who are toilinE I'm rowing.
They all need the message of Jesus:
'I5e of good cheer
1.-THE other occasion was when Jesus
was about To leave His disciples: In
be of good cheer I have overcome the
world A victorious Christ will bring
all His followers through more than
COnQuerOrs. BE Of good cheer, for
Jesus has power TO forgive your sins
and cleanse YOU fTOn all unTighteOus-
ness Be OF good cheer. since Jesus
will be with you i'm ali the toll and
stress Of life. BE of good cheer, for the
future, i'm time and eternity, is safe with
Him.

was one OF these expeditions that de-
veloped DR.. Cooks dash to the North pole.
Photographs OF a hunting trip made by
Bradley through the African jungles show
a caravan, each man carrying from eighty
TO 100 pounds on his head. The men were
picked from various tribes and were under
the guidance OF native experts from the
country Of the Mad Mullah. By playing
one faction against another Bradley was
able TO preserve peace and order.
OF this African hunt Bradley has written
as follows:
Il have been a sportsman all my life, not
a hunter. A hunter Is a professional who
goes into the jungle for ivory and skins
for the market. The sportsman hunts for
the trophies only. I selected Africa. near
ths equator, to hunt and bury ~mysslf-be-
coming practically dead to the world
"When 1 left New York. I took along
a friend who had shot with me in the
Rocky Mountains q mar who was equal

ing expedition Il Is best TO have men OF
several tribes. ! had 100 porters, ten po-
ieemen carrying snider rifles and eight
Runbearers, with personal servants.

I'VE hunted from 6 o'clock in the morn

and rest. From 10 until 4 We stayed In
camp, then shot again from 4 Until G. The
days were intensely hot under the equator.
but among the highlands nights we're cool.
1T is curious that l never found a native
who really knew how to hunt game. The
Mast tribe knows nothing Of stalking wild
animals which roam in thousands around
their villages. Many natives are killed by
lions. leopards and especially by the rhino-
ceros. / consider this animal the most
dangerous OF all.
There are about eighteen varieties OF
horned game IN Eastern Africa. You find
punches Of from 1000 to 1000 or 5000 head
OF game. the giraffe. zebra. Gland. gazells
and hartebees:, herdinG together, The
leopard Is probably more dangerous han
the tiger or lion. next TO the ~rhinOceros
the most formidable OF all animals"
Bradlsys expedition into Asia was ever
more thrilling. He was able to make the
hunt through the courtesy OF the Rus
sian government but he met with eonsid-
cradle trouble with the secret police
Finally he was given what was said 10
ave been the strongest credentials ever
issued TO a traveller In those parts.

when pisraeH was prunk.

I was a good many years in Parliament,
writes Labouchere in London Truth. Dur
ing that time I heard many members
speak perceptibly under the influence Of
liquor, but very few who could be said to
be drunk. One OF these, curiously enough,
was MT. Disraeli, who was a very tenn
perate man. II occurred thus: He was
then the leader OF the house and a to
speak late. Feeling greatly tagged, he
begged a whip to bring him a glass Of
brandy and water. The whip brought him
a glass with more brandy than water In
It, which he drank. and in a few minutes
he was perfectly drunk. He smiled va
cantly. He let his handkerchief fall and
made wild attempts TO pick It up, like the
comic drunkard on the stage Then he
collapsed and sat down.
The house pretended to take no notice
Of the scene. But a few days later Mr..
Gladstone, in answering Mr.. DlsraelL, said
that q minister should do. or not do, this
or that. and wound up by observing that
he ought 70 treat every subject with So
briefly. Aecentuating the word and pointing
az Mr.. DisraelL The house was so Of
f~ended-for It was well aware how the
previous incident had occurred-that Mr..
Gladstone was actually hiSsed.
