met their eyes that they had not even
dreamed of in their life. For when
they awolke they saw His glory and the
two men who were with him. Hitherto
they had known Jesus only in His hui
initiation, and it is to their credit that
in spite of the fact that He upset
their every idea of the Messiah, they
yet believed in Him with absolute con-
f1dence. But now that they saw Him
in His glory the glory only begotten
of the Father. they could realize in
some measure what His Messiahship
really meant. At least because of this
vision they were in position to appre-
ciate the meaning of many strange
things that He said and did, in the
days after He had left them. They
have tried to give us some idea of His
appearance but words fail them. His
face and clothes We're whittier than any
soap could make them, said one another
said whittier than snow thinking no
doubt of the reflection of the sun from
snow-capped Hermon but evidently
these expressions did not convey what
they really saw.
They were confused, they knew not
what to say. Finally Peter, impetuous
as usual, said, Master, it is good for
us to be here; l will make three tab
ernacles, one for Thee one for Moses,
and one for Elijah"
Poor Peter, he was trying to get
out Of a difficulty that he had been
in for more than a week. He could
not yet comprehend why Jesus would
insist on suffering the shameful death
of the cross. re had been trying all
the week to figure out some way Of
escape, and now he thinks he has found
the solution. While they were on this
blessed mount, he would build three
tabernacles and let them stay there,
and thus his blessed Master will escape
the cross.
But he had hardly uttered the words
before a cloud inveloped them, and God
the Father spoke, saying: This is my
Son, my chosen; hear we Him" And
when the cloud lifted they saw no man
save Jesus only. God had rebuked Pc
ter again. He had used the words which
He used when Jesus was baptized lie
is telling Peter to listen to Him and
follow Him, even though the way may
seem dark and inexpLcable. 1t is sig
nificant that when this word was spoken
they saw no man save Jesus only. My
beloved, this is the message that should
come to follow Him. Even though the
way may seem to us absolutely wrong,
1T will bring us to victory and glory,
as it did these men, although they did
not understand it at that time. Keep
ever before you, Jesus only.

"MODERN JOURNALISM"
SCORED BY BAPTIST
(By Associated Press. }

PETERSBURG, Va, Nov. 20.-Dr. w.
L. Poteat, president of Wake Forest
college, of North Carolina, denounced
Modern Journalism" at the concluding
session here Tuesday night of the Vir-
ginia Baptist General association's
convention.
In the course of his sermon on Con
fict with Christianity" DR.. Poteat said:
playing up the names of crime in
type an inch high, giving vicious de-
tails of the court proceedings from
which courts have excluded boys and
carrying those details into the home,
the modern newspaper drains the sew
ers of civilization and poisons the foun-
tain of morality, and you hold your
nose, but make no protest"
