The Burning Question.

Paul. in his letter to the Romans,
states: "Whosoever shall call upon the
name of the Lord shall be saved How.
then. shall they call on Him in whom
they have not believed? And how shall
they believe in Him of whom they have
not heard? And how shall they hear
without a preacher. And how shall they
preach except they be sent?''
There is no question that the Scrip
lures reveal that it is the design and
purpose of God that Christ's gospel shall
reach all the ends of the earth.
With us now 1.-The burning question is,
to quote the words of John R. Mott,
Shall hundreds of millions of men now
living, who need Christ, and who are
capable of receiving help from Him, pass
away without having even the opportu-
nifty to know Him.
What answer will the Christian portion
Of the world give to this question during
the year 1913?
We cannot tell what the union of effort
will be or the result until history unfolds
lit, but we can determine what We indi-
vidually win undertake to do in evan
gelistic work.

The Evangel.

Not only love and joy. but hope is in
dispensable in the thought of evangelism.
'E.vangel means good news.
We never carry good news with a sour.
disconnected face.
In telling it the light of JOY and hope
beams in the countenance.
If any one comes to us with long face
and cheerless eye whatever may be the
words of his message. We know that he
is not an evangelist.
When Christ after His temptation came
TO Nazareth, He entered the synagogue,
as His custom was. and read from the
book OF the Prophet Esaias the declara-
ton of His evangel to men. duke,
4:1S. I'D
The spirit Of the Lord is upon me, be-
cause He hath anointed me to preach the
gospel to the poor; He hath sent me to
heal the broken-hearted, to preach de-
hverance to the captives. and recovering
OF sight to the blind, to set at liberty
them that are bruised, to preach the &C
ceptable year OF the Lord"
Good news to the poor. healing to the
broken-hearted. deliverance to captives.
restoration Of sight to the blind and
liberty for those that are bound, Is a mes
sage to be delivered with glowing heart
and radiant face. 1t is impossible for
a true evangelist to be long-faced.
Every Christian is an evangelist
1t Is not alone the Office Of the Spirit
and the' bride-the church-to say, come,
but he that heareth is to say. come.
The youngest as well as the oldest
Christian Endeavorer, having heard the
evangel, is to tell the good news to others.
1t is message to every race. every
class. every condition Of men. A gospel
to be preached by every Christian.
There is preaching from the pulpit-and
il is a glorious ministry-and there is
preaching from heart to heart, from
life to life.
For the poor. it is a story of the
IL Sux. Co. 81 IL

Christ: for the lame and halt. it is

Sometime by Somebody.

Why not be an evangelist in your
sphere and place? In the larger ministry
of public service. il you can. II not. then
in your own home and in the circle OF
your acquaintances.
Your first opportunity as we'll as obli-
CATION Is to those who are nearest, but
your service will not stop there.
The chief element In the gospel is love
and that love Is not for a few only, but
for all men.
The great thought Of the church today is
the evangelization of the world. That the
gospel Is to be carried some time by
somebody to every creature Is the uni
versal beiIaf Of the Christian church. but
different opinions obtain as to when this
Ii to be done.
Some. in view of the vastness of the
undertaking. believe that IL will require
many centuries. while others claim that

The Great Message.

In it's origin the evangel appeals to the
most sublime qualities Of our nature. The
Babe of Bethlehem, the Child of Nazareth,
the Man of Galilee fill the Christian
heart with song. admiration and adOra-
ton: in the worldwide range of it's COM
mission 1t proclaims the universally of
it's authors dominion; in the sweet and
gracious mysteries of the salvation 1t
offers it touches the deepest emotions of
the hungry, longing heart: in the hopes
and inspirations 1T affords is suggested
the highest aims and purposes of life.
Aye, this evangel We are called upon to
proclaim at home and abroad is a
wondrous message of love and hope to
man. 1t is a gospel Of help, guidance and
comfort in all the temporal and spiritual
necessities, duties and trials of life.

Bill With State Supervision
Clause Now Up to House

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. 12.-LaSt night
the state senate by vote of 20 to Y
passed the substitute bill to the house
tax reform measure, after nearly five
hours of argument, which centered
around the question as to whether OF
not the bill should include in it a pro-
vision for a state tax assessor as wei
as county boards Of tax equalizers.
Senator B. S. Miller who with Pres u
dent Randolph Anderson, fathered thu
substitute measure, led the supporters
of the bill, speaking for it two and 4
half hours. u
Senator r. T. DuBose offered an
amendment striking the section creat-
Ii ing the state assessor. He spoke fol
an hour, but his amendment was de-
feated and the bill passed with the
state tax assessor section intact. Only
few minor amendments were offered
The bill was ordered transmitted tc
the house Immediately, where it cam;
up for passage today.
The bill has a minority report filed
with it, signed by Senators Dubois 2
Richardson, Chenault and Bush. The
minority report says the substitute BIZ
would work hardship on the farmer
and would not be acceptable to the
people of the state at large. A bitter
discussion of it's merits ensued. The
senate at the morning session passed
resolution limiting debate to five
minutes to each member.
Several important general measures
were adopted in the senate Monday
morning. At the hour of adjournment
the subject under discussion was the
| bill offered by Senator HUE and others
which applies to the present garnish-
ment law. BY it's provisions, as re.
ported by substitute, all people wheth-
er mental or physical workers, hav-
their wages subject to garnishment. II
salary is over $50 a month and und'r
$500, half of it is subject to garnisl-
ment. If 500 a month or over, all o.
| it is subject to garnishment. Debate
on the bill was still in progress when
the senate adjourned.
The senate passed the bill of Sena-
tor Huie's making it misdemeanor 10
issue check when the drawee has
no funds in the bank with which TO
meet it. The bill provides that the
drawee shall have thirty days in which
to meet the check, and that he must
have issued it without intent to de-
fraud" Debate on the bill was torrid.
Senator Mcneil declaring that 1t would
serve to shield crooks" and swindlers
more than any other measure passed
in years. In the first place, he claimed
the bill was illegal in form and would
not hold before the courts, and that
with the thirty days clause in it, 1t
would be impossible to arrest the man
until he had skipped"
