The Gifts of the Spirit
! We are to distinguish between the
| gifts of the Spirit and the fruits of the
| Spirit The fruits of the Spirit are de
| velopments of heart and character
which come more or less slowly, accord
ing to the personality ana environment
of each spirt-begotten one These
fruits of the Spirit, the apostle says
can be seen-are manifest. They are
meelSness, gentleness, patience, long-suf-
fering. brotherly- kindness, love.
These fruits must be developed in our
hearts This will mean more or less
| manifestation of them in our thoughts
words and deeds. The ripper the Chris
tian, the ripper the fruits. If no fruits
appear, then there is no Christian If
any man have not the Spirit of Christ,
he is none of His" But these fruits
may be so overshadowed by weaknesses
of the flesh that all may not be able to
see to what extent the brother is fight
ing a good fight against the spirit of the
world. the spirit of the adversary and
the mind of the flesh.
When Pentecost came the disciples
were not prepared to manifest imme-
diately ripe frutage of the Spirit Such
development requires months and years.
Up to this time they were natural men.
We see, then, why they could not have
manifestation of the fruits of the
Spirit But 1t was very necessary that
they have some manifestation of God S
favor.
God manifested their acceptance by the
bestowment of certain gifts, which were
not fruits of the Spirit in any sense.
These gifts were widely distributed in
the early church, and We're miraculous.
Some spoke languages of which they
had no previous knowledge; some had
the gift of interpreting these languages;
some received the gift of healing and
some, power for other miracles.
i These gifts served a three-fold pur-
pose: % They manifested Gods favor.
therefore proving that Christ's work of
redemption had been satisfactory. ~
They were proofs to the public that God
was with the disciples, and would lead
lovers of God to investigate the gospel.
80 They assured the disciples that they
were in the right way and that God
was leading them.
These experiences, necessary for the
establishment of the early church. came
at a time when such manifestation was
most necessary The early church coulu
not walk by faith as we do. They had
no Bibles They had no instruction, ex-

UGLY BLAZE IN CITY
JAIL EXT|NGU|SHED
Police Charge Fire Was
Kindled by Alleged In
sane Musician

An ugly blaze in the hospital ward of
the city jail was checked last night by
the timely work of Warden Evans. Pa
troll Chauffeur Ollie Mullln and other
attaches of the jail
It is alleged that the fire was started
by man giving his name as Frank
Haver, who is being held by the police
authorities on a charge of having escaped
from the state insane hospital at Tus-
caloosa1 Haver, short time before, had
been confined in the hospital ward after
obtaining the warden's keys and fumbling
with the lock on the door of the, city jail.
1t is charged that Haver piled some bed
ding on the floor of the hospital ward
and set it on fire. Those downstairs
smelled the smoke, a hurried investigation
was made with the result that the blaze
was checked before any serious damage
was done.
Haver, who is a musician, was first
taken in charge by the police about three
weeks ago for disorderly conduct in his
rooming house, the specific offense being
tearing up furniture which, he said, did
not meet his approval After an exam
ination DIR. Whelan decided that the best
thing to do was to send Haver to the
insane hospital at Tuscaloosa, which was
done. He was again taken in charge
by the police Monday on complaint of a
citizen who charges Haver with follow
ing him and making threats.
He was allowed to remain in the de-
tectives' private office pending the ar
rival of Tuscaloosa authorities and last
night visited the wardens S office. He was
ordered into solitary confinement, how
ever. when Chief Bodeker was notified
of the fire and a close watch will be kept
on him as long as he remains in the
hands of the local authorities.

a proposal win be made in each as
sembly that they unite in an express
sicn of the broad general beliefs which
are common to all of them.

many assurances of support from in
'fluential members of each of the as
