being Daniel, then sixteen years Of
age. The king had school for the
training OF brains 20 that he might be
sproperly advised. and the ruler was
wise enough to know that among his
captiyes brains existed One day his
official found Daniel and several other
Of the Jewish slaves working on the
streets and told them the king was
hunting for brains; that they might
rise to position of great honor and
power and wealth should they accept
the chance to be trained In the kings
college and thus develop their worth
They accepted.
But although their table was laden
with food from the kings palace, it
was repelient to Daniel and his three
companions, who refused to eat 1t.
There we're meats and fermented
wines, which antagonized their relig-
ion, and they refused to partake Of it.
Are YOU going to let these old fool
scruples keep you from eating what
comes from the kings table; do you
want to ruin your prospects and cut
out your chance for honor and pres

And Daniel replied that he didn't be.

to develop brains; that such food was

companions would just eat boiled

Connell said, and he went on to de-
clare that the first reason why men
don't get along Is because of trouble
with their heads. This world is to-
day. as 1t was in Daniels time, put
ting q premium on brains" he said.
The tobacco 'chawer" who can spit
the biggest puddle, the fellow who can
drink the most booze, the chap who
can relate the greatest number Of
salacious and vulgar stories doesn't
get good pay for their labor, he said.
But just look at the number Of men
who are working at those things!v z
Mcconnell exclaimed. What fellow
takes into himself is pretty good in
dication OF his mental equipment, and
what he puts into his mind is good

how hard some fellows work to be no

lie said play was a good thing as
recration,. but that all play and no
work was foolish. Daniel estimated
his value to the king not on what he
could eat but on the brains he could
use in his masters behalf. The
preacher gave vent to humorous sar-
casm in referring to those nonentities
who are living on the reputation of
their fathers, insisting that the only
reason people pay big prices now for
little hogs on account of their pedi.
grees Is because they had daddies who
were Of such caliber that it was rea-
sonable to expect the little fellow to
be good hog too. He said he cared
also about hogs granddaddy as it
told in the hog he had.
A good rule to go by is that the
quality of the brain is safely deter
mined by what the owner does with
it. he said.
Refuses to Defile Himself.
Daniel didn't propose to defile him
self and offend his God even for the
favor of the king, but there are peo-
pie in this state who would sell their
souls to hell to be considered among
the big bugs of the country" McCon-
nell cried, and he went on to reveal
that many desire only the good opin-
ion Of others, to live a sham, wne

people were not present. They are sell

tics and law, but how he clung to his
clean character. There has never
been a fiaer Christian character in
America than William Mckinley" the
evangelist declared, and he went on
to proclaim that the two men most
honored in Democracy today are

Brains and Backbone.
Daniel had brains and these he ex-
pected TO recommend him to the king,
but at the same time he had back
bone; he resisted the popular influ-
ence of the day; he refused to commit
what was polite and popular but what
was to him an offense in the eyes OF
his God.
Mcconnell declared the reason why
there's an un-Christian 40 years old
In Chickasha is because of cowardice.
He said there was no shortness of
brains here, but fear kept many men
put OF Christianity, fear of being
known for what they should be.
Mcconnell declared there was little
use In a man having mental equip
ment barely short OF the divine If he
did not use 1T; that Daniel gave evil
1ence of God honoring brains and
and that no man has acted
