ness. He came to see that the respon- abilities of having this boy in his home were also attendant and struck the keynote to the modern dissatisfaction
 at the answering of our prayers. We do not always take inventories of what responsibilities would accrue should God
 answer our prayers just as we wanted. To have peace and joy we must con- secrate our homes, selves and children to God to do with them as He sees fit. Sometimes we think that we can not gain pleasure in pursuing this course, but it is the only path for the ultimate happiness.
 Answering of Prayer
 So the answering of prayer calls for the establishing of community as well as giving up the home to God. For as soon as other folks see that you and yours are devoted to high principle
 and worthy cause. they twill gather you
 and your children to join with you and
 share your joy and gladness at doing right. Zacharius surrendered his home | his wife, his future to God for the work | ing out of the answer to the prayer, and
 then began to inaugurate a social move. | ment
 | The forces were organized that the coming of the prophet might be more | far reaching. The angel had said that
 the prophet would turn the hearts of the parents towards the children, and this | meant that the old time spirit of loyalty to Jehovah, so manifest in the ancien, fathers of the race, would be revived in
 the hearts of the children. He was also to turn the disobedience of the wicked into the wisdom of the just, which In those days meant more than the term inn plies in the present time.
 "A practical lesson to be learned from the answer to Zacharius prayer is that there must be gathered together a con- | crete body of people before anything ef- fective can be done. You might have the finest Sunday school superintendent in the country, but unless you had the Sum day school pupils, he would not have any
 opportunity of displaying his ability. You cannot select any man anywhere in ac- tive work and not give him active sup port If you wish him to succeed. God has seen fit to put around every human be- ing another, whose influence may be felt or who may be uninfluenced by each one of us. John the Baptist could not have done his work in this world if he
 had not been backed up by the entire body of the Nazarenes. These Nazarenes are the people from whom Christ came
 into being, and are attracting a wide in- | terest because of their cradling of the church and their existence antedating l the birth of Christ.
 When you pray, don't say Give me l this day my daily bread, but give us
 the whole universe, our daily sustenance.' Don't say Forgive me my sins but for | give us, the world, our sins lead us, every living soul, not into temptation, and deliver us, not just myself and fam | fly, from evil; and may Thy kingdom come not only in Birmingham but in every spot of the whole globe is the na- ture of the prayer that zacharius uttered that won for us a Messiah"

That there was sympathy for the de-
fsated was shown by the silence in the
gallery as the players shook hands and
left the green. 1t was I'm vivid contrast
90 the shouts that broke loose from time
TO time in the memorable Hilton-Herres-
hoff match at Apawamis.
The story Of the Miss Hyde Miss Allen
contest is soon told. From the start It
became apparent that the latter was
outclassed. She had done well TO get as
far as the seni-fnal stage. IN the early
part of the match Miss Hyde putted
raggedly in spots. particularly at the
fourth. where she took FIVE strokes after
being hole high in three. She sank "a
twenty footer on the next green, and the
further the match progressed the steadier
she became Out in A., Miss Hyde turned
for home mp. She then won four straight
holes and the match. At the decisive hole
Miss hyde almost holed her approach for
