battle Of right against might was
fought at the cradle.
Moses mother was a slave. She
had to work in the brick yards or
labor in the fields, but God was on
her side and she won, as the mother
always wins with God on her side.
Before going to work she had to
choose some hiding place for her
child, and she put his little sister
Miriam on guard while she kept her
self from being seen by the soldiers
of Pharoah, who were seeking every
where to murder the Jewish male
children. For three months she kept
him hidden, possibly finding a new
hiding place every few days. 1t is
hard to imagine anything more diff
ficult than to hide a healthy, grow
ing baby, and he was hidden for
three months. Now he has grown
larger and more full OF life, and a
more secure hiding place had to be
found. and / can imagine this mother
giving up her rest and sleep to pre-
pare an ark for the saving OF her
child.
God Made Plans.
II believe the plans must have beer
formulated in heaven. / have often
thought God must have been as
much interested in that work as was
the mother of Moses, for you can't
make me believe that an event so
important as that and so far-reaching
in it's results ever happened by luck
or chance. Possibly God whispered
the plan to the mother when she went
to him in prayer and in her grief
because she was afraid the sword OF
Pharoah would murder her child. And
how carefully the material out OF
which the ark was made had to be
selected! think every twig was
carefully scrutinized in order that
nothing poor might get into it's COM
position. and in the weaving of that
ark the mothers heart, her soul, her
prayers, her tears, were interviewer.
And with what thanksgiving she must
have poured out her heart when at
last the work was done and the ark
was ready to carry it's precious cargo.

Mothers day az the tabernacle,
when Evangelist Billy Sunday preach
ed his famous and stirring sermon on
Mothers, was one of the banner days
of the great revival campaign that
is being conducted in this city by
Mr.. Sunday and his corps OF workers.
1t is estimated that there were about
$500 women in the audience yester-
day afternoon to hear the mastery
tribute to maternal love.
A number of local business plants
and the two business colleges closed
during the afternoon for the express
purpose Of allowing their employees
the opportunity of listening to Mr..
Sunday give his address.
Following the song service and the
sermon itself, Mr.. Sunday asked all
to place their handkerchiefs in the
left hand and wave it as token of
respect and love for the memory of
mother. 1t was wonderful sight
and one that greatly moved the spirit
of everyone present.
Evening Service.
At the evening service one man
rose of his own accord and stated in
broken English that he had refused
to do any work on the tabernacle
when 1T was in the process of erec-
ton, but now he had repented and
had gone home and had buried all his
liquor bottles, confession that was
greeted with loud applause
w. ID. Tucker of Canton, o., was
present and told of the good results
of the Sunday campaign in that city
since the evangelist had left At the
service last night thirty-five persons
hit the sawdust trail and were con-
verted.
Sermon on Mothers.
The sermon on Mothers was taken
from the text of Exodus II, 9 and in
part Mr.. Sunday said
"The story of Moses Is one of the
most beautiful and fascinating in all
the world. 1t takes hold on us and
never for an instant does 1t lose its
interest, for 1t is so graphically told
that once heard ii Is never forgotten.
Il have often imagined the anxiety
with which that child vas born, for
he came into the world with the sem
