Hebrews 6:13-20


For when God made promise to
Abraham because he could swear by
no greater, he sware by himself.
Saying, Surely blessing I will bless
thee, and multiplying | will multiply
thee.
And so, after he had patiently en-
dured, he obtained the promise.
For men verify swear by greater
and an oath for confirmation is to
them an end of all strife.
Wherein God, willing more abun-
dainty to shew unto the heirs of pro
mise the immutability of his counsel.
confirmed it by an oath:
That by two immutable things, in
which it was impossible for God to
lie, we might have a strong consola-
tion, who have fed for refuge to lay
hold upon the hope set before us:
Which hope we have as an anchor Of
the soul, both sure and steadfast and
which entereth into that within the
veil:
Whittier the forerunner is for us en-
tered, even Jesus, made an high priest
for ever after the order of Melchi
sedec.

PEPPER TALKS
Lost and Found.

The Lost and Found" column in
the newspaper is very interesting.
But there is something far more inter
esting in the existing though imprint
ed and unexpressed Lost and Found
column among the moving mass of
people Man after man, woman after
woman, daily jump from job to job
and from task to task-Lost. No pur-
pose guides, No Set Determination,
no Real Will rules their course. Their
aim is to live out the day" not realiz-
ing that there is tomorrow. They are
just Lost
Happy is the man who Finds what
he has Lost. Happy is the man who
after purposeless wandering and after
strange adventuring finally Finds him
self.
There is nothing so responsive as
the human brain and with all its facul-
ties in order with a Single Plan and
System working noiselessly and even
ly, there is no man living who cannot
achieve what to him he feels is pos.
sible of achievement.
Maybe the reason why you are dis
satisfied with yourself and forever
grumbling about conditions and the
successes of other people is that you
are Lost Are you waiting for some
body to Discover you? Don't wait.
Discover yourself.
For when you do really Find your
self, the happiness and power that
are bound to accrue will be better
and greater than the thrill that will
shoot through your system upon the
Finding of some priceless Treasure.
Do you feel Lost now? Try then be.
fore this day is gone to Find just
where you are and where you ought

at Bentley's expense, though two of
these were the result of scratch hit
, with which Chapman was credited in the
third inning. But for this fiuke drive,
a dropping fly over Gandirs head with
two on and two out, the chances are

But with a two-run lead to work on
Steen took lot of liberty with his
splitter and was also helped by the
fact that he has confidence

was relieved after the sixth, in which
round he allowed the final run for the

Both runs scored and Chapman pulled

grounder to Morgan, which should
have resulted in a double play, he
fumbled and Chapman scored. The
bases were full when the side was
retired.
