The Way of Humility.

The proud in spirit have their place
only in the seats OF the scornful, which
are far removed from the places of true
honor and distinction
'Whosoever exalteth himself shall be
ebased and he that humbleth himself
shall be exalted
There is no greater or nobler virtue
than humility. Christian humility does
not mean lack of strength or confidence.
The Consciousness of weakness awakens
dependence on divine strength and
through reliance OF that strength the
truly humble are made strong. The
proud rely on their own strength-the
humble rely upon supernatural strength.
Pride goeth before destruction, and a
naughty spirit before a fall" but the
humble are exalted. Humble yourself
in the sight of the Lord and He shall
lift you up.
Paul was man of great force and
courage, vet he manifested in the high
est degree the spirit of humility. Soon
after his conversion he declared himself
unworthy to be called an apostle A
little later on he said Il am less than
the least of all saints. and when he
was near the close of his splendid Chris
tian warfare he exclaimed, Il am the
chief OF sinners
The purest and the best are the mos,
conscious OF sin and unworthiness. and II
Is through that consciousness that they
are exalted Paul, though not inferior
to the chief of the apostles. was leas,
in his own eyes. and though one OF the
most exemplary of men. he felt that he
was chief of sinners.
1t is the humble heart before God thai
attains greatness.
None viii question that Paul occupied
chief seat in the congregation of the
righteous.
Could he have reached 1t II he had no
pursued the way of humility?
O. learn that it is only by the lowly
The paths Of peace trod.
II tEou woudst keep thy garments white ant
holy
Walk humtly with thy God. -..-

Character of Obedience.

Obedience consists in the performance
of the commands of a superior In re-
hSlon II must be animated not by fear
but by love Virtual obedience arises
from such a belief in the gospel as
recognizes the purity of it's precepts, the
truth of its promises and the necessity
of repentance for all sins
Actual. obedience consists in tb. mac
tlce and exercise of the virtues and
graces prescribed in the TEACHINGS of
Christianity. Perfect obedience means
complete conformity of the whole life to
the law Of God, free from the least i'm
perfection. Such obedience belongs to
the glorified state in the life to come
though it should be aimed at in this life
To reach the high stations in the
Church of God an obedience to Gods
law is required that is active personal
affectionate, diligent and perpetual. These
characteristics of obedience are specffi
cally stated in the Scriptures. Active. in
conforming unto and in avoiding trans
erosion Of the law: of God tCol. :::s, 1OD :;
personal. for though our substitute ha &
obeyed the law for us, yet he has not
set it aside as rule of life. =
DO we then make void the law
through faith?
God forbid. Yea, We establish the
law" Rom. 3:3D. Anectionate in that
obedience springs from love, not from

In business. and that strict attention to
integrity would involve danger. distress
and defeat. Yet the way Of integrity is
pointed out in the Scriptures as the only
course for sure and permanent success.
The integrity of the upright shall guide
them; but the perverseness of trans
gressors shall destroy them"
There can be no better guidance than
integrity. The road on which it leads us
Is the safest from disaster and ruin. In
this way thou shalt walk safely. and thy
foot shall not stumble. When thou lest
down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou
shalt lie down and thy sleep shall be
sweet
Integrity is the foundation Of all that is
highest and best In the character of men,
Without 1t man cannot reach the chief
seats In the congregation of the righteous.
'.Exalt her and she shall promote thee:
she shall bring thee to honor, when thou
dost embrace her.

WRESTLING MATCH r-
FRIDAY EVENING

Lovers of the wrestling game
are well pleased over the an
nouncement of the Gunderson-
Barber match which will be held
here on Friday evening, the first
of the new year as the indications
are that the game which was so
popular with the local people last
year will again be brought into
prominence this winter.
Without doubt Gunderson, the
local wrestler, is extremely pop
ular with the fans in this section
and the mere fact that he is
matched in a contest is a strong
feature in itself for drawing
good crowd. He has had sever
al matches here and without ex-
ception each contest sees the
audience we'll satisfied with the
contest and strong in their Opin-
that they have received their
moneys worth. The opening
contest this year promises to be
no exception to the rule that
Gunderson has laid down, that of
taking on only the well known
men who will be bound to kork
hard to sustain their reputation,
thus insurRg a good contest.
In Rudolph Barber GundersOn

is man who has already this
year gone through some grilling
contests with some of the best
men in the northwest.
With Gnnderson in tip-top
shape the match will prove g

ent being that me cannot get in
to the best of condition, consid-
ering the fact that he has beer
