earth be Blessed Other noble char
acters on the pages of history are not
ed as having possessed great wealth.
We should therefore view the mat
ter of poverty and riches philosophi
cally. Both poor and rich should be
encouraged to use faithfully the oppor-
tunities which they possess and to
wait patiently for the Lords time and

order of things which He has promis-

| to hasten or delay the Divine program.
Bible Counsel For the Rich.
| The Apostle says, Charge those
amongst you who are rich that they
trust not in uncertain riches" The
history OF centuries corroborates the
4 Apostles words. The rich and promi-

forgotten of another "Riches take
| wings" in manner that poverty rare

mites which have brought great wealth
| to some of our prominent Americans
have brought wealth and prosperity In
! smaller measure to those associated
with them in their enterprises. In
deed, In some respects the entire world,
and particularly America, owes them
debt of gratitude for their energy and
perseverance in the exercise of their
talents along such broad lines.

questions to come before the Ameri-

here tomorrow is the proposed rule
that all drafted players must be given
