JOURNEYS In BIBLE LANDS
Rev. John Reid Shannon breaches
Seventh Sermon of Series.
Pastor Carries Congregation Over
Route from Nazareth 10 Jerusa-
lem with Word Pictures.

Rev. DR.. John Reid Shannon preached
last might at Metropolitan Methodist
Episcopal Church the seventh sermon OF
his series on travels in Bible lands. With
his congregation he journeyed from Naza-
reth To Jerusalem by the same route
that Christ and his disciples so often
Travelled. Or. Shannon said:
we travel by rough bride paths. only
wide enough for horse. 1t takes US
several days to make the journey between
Nazareth and Jerusalem. This plain of
Esdraelon, over which we pass, is the
most historic plain in the world. The
trail OF the nations for forty centuries
and more is over this plain. 1t is infested
to-day with Bedaween. They are rob
bers; they make travelling here danger
GUS. unless you are accompanied by
armed guards"
Coming TO the ruins of the old city
Jezreel. DR.. Shannon gave a word picture
OF King Ahab and Queen Jezebel, at this
place overtaken by the law of retribution
for the killing of Naboth. as related in
the Old Testament.
DIT. shannon described the Palestine of
to-day as waste and bare. as desolate
and uncultivated.
'1f Palestine" said he, could be freed
from Turkish dominion and from the
rotten Mohammedan religion, il 1t could
be brought under good government and
under the influences Of the Christianity
born amid its empurpled hills. then again
in Palestine as in the days of holy
prophets and visioned seers. the wilder
ness and the solitary place would re-
joice and blossom as the rose"
word-picture was given of the ruins
of the ancient city of Samaria, and the
scene wherein the thunder-tongued Eli
jan comes down upon the wicked king
like a flood from the clouds, like light
ming at midnight. Jacobs WELL sunk
through limestone rock, is described as
it is to-day, and characterized as a gen.
uine relic of patriarchel times.
1.-THE city is invested with a splendor
of heart such as clothes no other spot
on earth. II Is the source of song, the
fountain Of poetry, the birthplace OF di-
vine music, the grand golden center in
the moral history of humanity"

Charles Wood. pastor Of the Church Of the

Moses, the maker of the law" last

For the law was given by Moses was
Rev. DIT, Woods text he graphically
traced Moses life from the finding OF the
infant in the bullrushes until ne gave
the children of Israel the law at Mount
Sinai He declared this was the first at
tempt TO lay down moral and civic laws
through religion.
And why should we not make every
capitol a Sinai?" he went on. Why
should net modern Legislators speak with
God as did Moses, because the laws OF
God are the best laws for men, and there
never was a good law that did not have
its origin in God
He said the Commandments are con-
stitutional laws that will last for ali
time. and that II modern statuta-making
bodies laid their laws along the same
lines. they. too. would be immortal. n
vitations had been sent to Washington's
lawyers and legislators. and many Of
them attended. A feature Of the service
was a musical programme by the colored
