JESUS the
GREAT DEMOCRAT
THAT'S THE WAY BISHOP
VIM. A. QUALE PUTS IT.
A Sermon on The Exaltation of
The Christ-A JOB" and
a Task"

Our readers will be interested
in reading a few quotations from
Bishop w. A. Quale, of Oklahoma,
which he used last Sunday in de.
dicating a new $4,000 church in
St. Louis, of which Rev. Grant A.
Robins. well remembered by
many in Mexico, is pastor.
I'm this country we have so
few soldiers they're joke, a run
riot. If all of them were to shoot
off their guns at once we
wouldn't even smell powder If
all of them were to shoot at once
the people would only think they
were smoking hams" said the
Bishop.
"Why haven't we any more
soldiers?" he continued. Be
cause we are too busy producing
men and women.
Christ said, Put up your
swords, and the world as world
has put up its sword. " Turning to
former Vice-President Fairbanks
who was a guest of honor on the
platform, the Bishop said: "Mr
Fairbanks a few years ago Went
around the world and he diGn I
have a pistol in his pocket, nor {
knife in his sheath. WhyY Be.
cause Almighty God has pacitied
the world.
Il have been in every large
American city. l have been in all
their byways and highways and
hellways and l never even carried
cane. Whenever | saw anybody
going to hold me up l just took
off my hat and let them see the
danger signal of my red hair.
There's lots of foolish talk
about war and about world peace
because everybody's talking
about it, and when everybody
talks there's bound to be some
silly talk. OF course, if only the
discriminating, like you and me
talked about it it would be differ.
ent."
The Bishop paid a tribute to
American newspapers.
This is the only country
where we're not afraid to let
everything out" he said. "Man
didn t need to read until he knew
he was "A man.
"To exalt the Christ" he de.
clared "that is the job of the
cnuich. | don't mean the task
OF the church. Somebody will
ask me why didn t say task in,
stead of job Well, the reason
Is, | don t want to say task. Task
means real hard labor. Job means
business on the run.
There never was a Republic
TIL Jesus got here. There could
nave been no such things as
Plato's Republic. There couldn I
nave been a Republic under
Socrates. Jesus is the great
Democrat. We may not have a
perfect democracy here in this
country, but we are getting
ahead. We are trying the princi.
pie Of plain, straight human
equality.
What is democracy 1t is the
nVlng operative sense that man
ana man are equal. 1t is the sub.
hmest doctrine ever brought to
earth, and Jesus brought it.
