master to whom II was submitted re-
marked how the goblet stood out per

and wiped IL out. saying that any
thing that stood out more prominent
than Jesus had no place in the pic
ture.

In his opening remarks, the speak
or pointed out the necessity and at
the same time the value of
! Faith in Christian Life.
and OF the folly and danger of unbe-
lief. lie said: II believe that the
message contained in the text is as
great as any found in the Scripture
the commandment TO have belief in
I prayer. Faith is the root Of love
the paramount upon which other
graces OF Christianity are based.
Show me your work by faith Faith
above all else. brings the blessings OF
OF God unbounded. Ii is found in
prayer. Efficiency of faith in prayer
Z lnSureS peace win GOO.
People are not without faith. But
faith must be developed and to de-
velop faith il must be exercised. To
develop physically. one must exercise
his mind and body. He may read
from book how 10 do it but he must
later practice what the book says.
And so faith develops as it is eXer-
cised II you don't use what faith
you have you will lose Il. II you
would exercise the same faith toward
God as you do in eating your meals
you'd save your soul and
Get 20 Heaven Quicker.
You exercise faith continually. You
eat because YOU have faith that II
Will feed your body and brain. When
you mail letter. you have faith that
Uncle Sam will deliver a. You
marry because YOU have faith. Nine
ty-hvc per cent of the business today
is done on the credit system because
YOU have faith that the people will
pay YOU. Tho National Tube mill IS
running because the company has
faith iha, The people will pay for
their orders
