FOES THAT WE TAKE
 INTO OUR LIVES
Made Theme for Rev. Or. sIoeun at
 Shop Talk.

General Secretary Edwin Hill of the Y. M. c. A. conducted the first shop meeting of the season at the plant Of the Crescent Firearms company on Friday at noon and a helpful talk on Watch was given by Rev. Joel B. Slo- cum. D. D., pastor of the Central Bap- tiSt church. Dr. Slocum said among other things that during this war strong Notifications have been taken by bombardment and that forts sup posed to be impregnable have been re- duced to heaps of debris as though their walls were constructed of chalk
 Illustrating his point with the story of the Fall of Troy through the wood en horse that contained the city's enc mics and was taken inside the walls, Rev. Dr. Slocum said that the lesson for us is that we are in danger Of taking into our confidence some dan gerous thing that by and by will be the means of our undoing. Every thing seems all right If anybody should attempt to uudeceive you, 1t would net impress you But the wood en horse Is there, right in the midst of your life. and you are the one who is responsible for'his being there. You dragged him in yourself.
 The foes who thus by strategy have gained access to us in an unguarded moment will fall upon us when we are least prepared to resist. Bad temper, had language, impurity of thought, impurity of speech, intemperance. un- clean Hving-these are only a few of the officers of the enemy. Behind each of these is 8 whole regiment of evil things, any one of which is eager to deSpoi1 us.
 The only safe course for us is to watch with utmost vigilance lest the enemy gain a foothold. Jesus himself recognized and emphasized the im- portance of watching. At the conclu- sion of a parable which taught this same lesson, He exclaimed: What 1 say unto you I say unto all, Watch! "
 In view of so many and persistent foes, it is well to have friends. And the greatest friend we can have is the one who is more powerful than all our enemies combined. I refer, of course. to Jesus Christ, the worlds Saviour I commend Him to you to- day as your helper in all the times of your need. With Him you will be able to fight the good fight of faith and lay hold of eternal life.
