EXPECTS GOOD IN FUTURE
G. w. Neville, Noted GreenvilIe Cottor
Trader, Talks of the Conditions
of Future.

Greenvil1e.-T am an optimist, al
ways an optimist," said George w.
Neville, formerly president Of the New
York cotton exchange. The statement
was made recently when Mr. Neville
was asked concerning the business
conditions of the nation. He was in
Greenville on a bushes visit to C. s.
Webb, his partner.
Discoursing upon the outlook, Mr.
Neville said that the New York bank
ers saw no bugaboo in the new cur.
rency law, that they were very hope
full concerning the outlook for bust
ness, and especially welcomed that
section of the federal reserve act
which provides that the government
shall recognize commercial paper as
collateral. Hitherto, said the speak
er, commercial paper has been an "un-
digestible lump, so far as the ultimate
banker is concerned" Now this lump
is an asset, more than ever before.
The reserve act was characterized as
a marvel in its way" It's workings,
said he, will be beneficial, as 1t makes
the currency flexible without working
hardship.
Wall street, said MIR. Neville, and
New York business generally, are not
conspiring to rob the rest Of the coun.
try. The business interests did oppose
the currency bi las it passed the
house, but regard the final form of
the measure as acceptable. A promi-
nent banker recently said to Mr.. New
lille that the new law was seven
eighths good, and that the other eighth
could be corrected.
The speaker said he was Jul that
President Wilson would appoint only
At men to the federal reserve board,
and then he went on to say that this
board was almost, If not quite, as i'm
portant as the supreme court Of the
United States. 1t will control a great
branch of the government. The loca
ton Of the reserve cities, said Mr.
Neville, was to his mind one Of the
most important tasks. He does not
see how IL Of these cities can be de
cided upon, as he does not see where
the requisite capital could be secured
for so many reserve banks.
That the nomination Of John Skel
ton Williams Is not strongly opposed
by New York, is the opinion Of Mr.
Neville.

Scripture lis usually thought Of as be-
ing a great teaching on prayer. 1t Is

great illustration Of the sound princi-

wonderful Bible teacher, u Lord and

lesson the oncoming generation needs
to learn it is that Of reverence. His
prayers were too sacred to permit OIL
any intrusion. His praying also aWoke

perception, concept, all in their logical
order. The power Of example, this Is

It is that which will arouse a keen de-

III. Teaching by parable wv. 6-10) "a

Let US beware, however, Of a wrong
comparison and Of to vivid details.
This is not a picture of God, only by
way of contrast is he suggested. There
are three friends here: Cd The needy

Most Wonderful Prayer.

II. Teaching by formula wv. 2-4). The
human mind is weak and needs that
assistance which is to be found in a
clear statement of truth. Not always
can we have the benefit Of a strong
personality. Hence Jesus gives US a
formula, or prayer, often called the
Lords Prayer" but more correctly
termed the disciples prayer" This
is In some respects the worlds most
wonderful prayer, certainly the most
familiar. Lacking in personal pro-
nouns, it begins with that matchless
conception Of God, "our Father" it de-
scends step by step from a c%onsidera-
ton of his hallowed name, his king
dom, and his will duke 22:42) In
heaven and upon earth, down to the
question of our need Of daily food. 1T
then sweeps backward, through the re-
lations of mankind to each other, to
temptation, to the power of sin, back
(Matt. 6:13( to God once more, back
to the Alpha and Omega. In it Is in
vocation, s%upplication and alteration.
It sweeps the whole gamut of mans
need. physical, mental and spiritual. 1t
begins in heaven, 1t encircles the
earth. it rebounds to those realms OF
glory from which the Son came, and to
which he returned. A study Of the
prayers of the saints, living and dead,
ought to be more emphasized. This
kingdom here mentioned is yet to be
fully established. A kingdom de-
mands a king (Rev. 1920; its begin
ming, though, is in the hearts of men;
1t implies entire submission to Gods
will luke 22:42); 1t delights in doing
that will John 6:3S, Eph. $50; it de-
mands an entire sanctification Of our
lives, and a desire that his will shall
rule in the earth Il Thess., 4:3). The
fifth petition is not the prayer OF the
unsaved sinner John 9:31). Fellow
shin with God depends upon u will
ingness to forgive others (Matt. 6:l4,
Is; Mark 1926; but that Is not the
ground of Gods forgiveness (Eph. IT;
4:32). God does not tempt men (Jas.
1:13); he does permit temptation to
assail us, such as modern economic
conditions mark 1:12, 1885, but God
never allows us to be tempted above
what we can bear Il Cor. 1913. Vol.
umes have been written about this
prayer and yet it's fulness has not even
been suggested. The teacher who
really prays cannot be a failure, for he
has the power of God behind his labor.
He must, however, not limit himself to
his prayer only (Phil. AS; Jas. 5:13,
14o. The Christians prayer must be
in the name Of Christ, which is not
named here, for he was not yet cruel
