Truth That Enliehtens and Purlfies--
Eph. d; 1924; Prov. 2: 1o22--

Eph. d: 1924; Prov. 2: 1922
Christian Education Day.
The theme common to the two pas.
sages Is, the truth enlightens and pu.
rifles and thereby saves.
Prov. 2: 1922. This theme is here
expressed in terms of knowledge and
wisdom. In verses 1.9 the universal
condition of coming into possession of
the truth Is POLITICALLY yet clearly and
accurately stated. All must pay the
same price. Only material things can
be cornered. No man can corner
truth. No one gets either more or
less than he pays for. This price Is
first to accept the truth whenever and
through whatever channel 1t may ap
pear no matter what the necessary
sacrifice; secondly, to seek for it, that,
having found it, we may accept IL.
To accept truth means more than to
assent to 1t as good. 1t means to let
wisdom and knowledge enter in and
become a part of the intellectual and
moral nature. AS a result the person
has discretion and understanding, and
delights to follow the dictates of the
truth. Thus assimilated, the truth be.

lEph. a; 1924 The purpose OF Saint
Paul Is to teach what it is to learn
Christ. He urges the people to whom
ne Is writing to show that they have
learned Christ, first by putting off the
old man. by eliminating everything
from their manner of life that is false,
vicious, and impure; secondly, by put.
ting on the new man. a manner of life
true, virtuous and pure.
1t is very difficult for us. even in
vigorous exercise of Imagination, to
realize how degraded in character and
life were the people to whom Paul
wrote. In our Christian civilization
character and life are so thoroughly
charged with Christian ideals, princi-
pes and practices that very many
who are either non-professing or in
active protesting Christians are. by

Alcohol Does Not keep Out the
COJdv

"Oh, 1t is an excellent protection
against cold. If you are going into
the cold air you ought to take a lit
tie nip of something. 1t does keep
out the cold!" This argument is,
used so often that even medical men
would sometimes seem almost to be-
lieve 1t. One can answer this i'm
preston with a question from an au-
thority, that alcohol tends to lower
the temperature by increased loss of
heat, and to some extent by lessened
oxidation, while the power of the
body to resist cold is much reduced
by it." That answers this particu-
lar argument, which, as you know, is
one of the most potent circumstances
under which alcohol is used in this
country.

number OF arrests that year reached
a total OF 734. showing a gratifying

Alcoholism and CriminalIty in France.

A paper upon Alcoholism and
Criminality" was read before the
Academy of Medicine In Paris on Oc-
tober by DR.. Ballon, physician-in-
chief of the Sainte Anne Asylum. As
expert physician to the courts he has
had to examine in the course of the
last twenty years 151 persons accused
of murder or attempted murder. OF
these persons there were forty-nine
more or less intoxicated at the time
of the crime. or more than one-third
OF the whole. DR.. Ballon said the
influence OF alcohol in the production
OF homicide is much greater II the an
tecedents OF those not intoxicated at
the time OF the crime were examined.

Belief Strengthens; Doubt weaken,

We venture a final suggestion.
Emphasize what you believed A man
ls strong In proportion to his faith.
One article OF faith is worth more
than million doubts. A man who
believes only one thing may be useful
but doubt Is the paralysis of power.
Acting on what we do believe will
lead to larger faith. but surrender to
doubt robs life OF all vigor.-Chris-

long illness, having been dependent
Tor several years on a sister who

he, believing that there was gold in,
Cripple Creek, remained there. AL
ter years of fruitless search, he found,
traces of gold in pieces of float rock
which he picked up. 1t was sent to
Denver for assaying and the messen-
ger returned with certificate, "The
piece of float rock returned $3.50 in
gold to the ton." Womack persisted
and in January, 1901, he dug a pros-
pect hole, and few days later struck
Bonanza lead" But he could not
stand prosperity and went to Colorado
Springs on spree and sold his
Bonanza for $500. Then, crazed with
drink. he jumped on his broncho and
rode through the streets brandishing
his revolver and proclaiming his SCI
cret. The next few days witnessed,
the most exciting rush to the scene
OF discovery that the world has ever
known. When Womack sobered up,
In two or three days and returned to-
the place, he found the best mining
