DR.. Tomkins Says It Is Beautiful That Garden Was
Connected With Christ's Suffering and Death.

BY REV. DIR. FLOYD w. TOMKINs,
Rector of Holy Trinity Episcopal Church of
Philadelphia.
It is beautiful to realize that garden
was connected with our Lords suffering
and death.
| We can never forget Gethsemane, and
even today we are told that the place,
although probably much changed since
our Lords day, has a sacredness which
the visitor feels.
| The name itself. from the Hebrew.
means ''oil press" and seems to suggest
the holy amounting which was a part Of
the Old Testament teaching and which
undoubtedly prophesied the amounting Of
the Holy Spirit.
| Truly the King of Men was amounted
in the garden, when for our sins He en-
dured the mental agony which was even
fiercer than the physical agony which was
to follow.
| Our Lord, with the apostles. seems to
have come to Gethsemane about mid
night There has been some little differ
ence of opinion as to when He uttered
the beautiful words which St. John gives
US from the 14th to the 18th chapters
Of his gospel.
Some have thought that they were
spoken in the upper room; others that
they were spoken ON the way to the gar
den, and others again that they were
spoken after they reached Gethsemana
The first verse of ST. John, Is, would
seem to imply that they came to the
garden after the words were spoken;
and II that was the case, then we have
a most beautiful preparation for the
garden experience in those wonderful
words which have been the spiritual
blessings of the church for ages.
We always need to read them in con-
nection with the last days Of our Lord
in order that we may have the express
sion of His love as well as the tender
words of sympathy and guidance to stand
as a background for His patience and
suffering.
The events in Gethsemane which we
will study today are, first, the WEAKNESS
of the disciples; second. the agony of
Christ.
I. It seems strange that the disciples,
at such crisis in their own lives and
in the life of the Master, should have
been drowsy. The excuse is given for
them in the gospel that they were
overcome with grief. It may well have
been SO. But how pathetic the cry OF
the Master, particularly in the face OF
the boasting of Peter that he would
never fail Him. "Could'st not thou
watch one hour?'
The beautiful hymn in Stainer's ora
touched me very deeply. 1t seems such
Master, for still we remember His
agony and suffering, even although

Opportunity in Latin America.

Consular representatives of Latin
American republics met recently in
New York to consider the serious trade
situation due to the European war. A
statement given out by these represen!
tatives says: North Americans cannot
appreciate the terrible predicament
South American republics are in as q
result of the European conflict. There
has been q complete paralysis of trade.
and the paralysis extends even to food
stuffs. Credit has been wiped out. and
merchants are unable to place orders,
as all business heretofore has been
done with European firms" Accord
ing to the sentiment expressed at the
meeting, the only possible relief for
these conditions is in the extension OF
credit by United States exporters and
manufacturer.

And by His prophet Haggai says
Consider your ways"
In adversely there is much to pro-
mote consideration. The mind is mace
serious. In seasons of bereavement, In
times of financial loss. in periods OF
sickness. the mind is turned from the
trivial thoughts and affairs of life; yet
in such cases men do not always con-
slider the hand of God in leading them
| through discipline to higher and purer
conceptions of life. but give themselves
over to repjnings and murmurings. They
do not consider that all sorrows are the
result Of sin. and that their personal
sin must be purged away before they
can be free from its consequences OF
suffering and sorrow.
Were we holy and perfect, adyer-
stiles would not exist; but as SICK
ness requires medicine. as gold re-
quires refining, SO our souls are healed
and purified by Universities.
In the day of adversely consider
that our Affections are under the con-
troll of God; that they are for salutary
purposes; that they are merctfully
alleviated, and that they are limited In
duration.
When We realize, as Paul did (who
had sufferings more abundant than
usually fall to the lot of mani, that

the weekend suit case, and with a
smart, new tailor-made costume on her
back. dinner gown or two in her bag
and a good, warm motor coat over her
arm. any woman can go away for a
two or three day visit, adequately pre-
pared for any occasion that will proba-
bly, arise.
For wear with the tailored suit there
must be an extra blouse or two, of soft
fabric that can be tucked into a suit
case without crumpling. One of these
blouses may be of lace over chiffon,
or the sheer Americanwoven wolfe
that the makers have managed to turn
out as transparent as chiffon since the
war made French chiffons SO high in
price. Ecru lace over f1esh-tinted wolfe
of this weave makes an especially
smart blouse, for ecru and cream tints
are more fashionable now than white.
Even stockings are taking on
the creamy tone-or, to be exact, they
are not taking on any tone at all, but
are in what is called natural silk
shade, very delicate cream, just Off
the white. These natural silk stockings
are much the thing now and one sees
dancing slippers that cold weather has
not yet called in, and with new button
ed boots with tops of fawn cloth.
Another blouse should be of tub silk,
for wear in the mornings. The pref
test of the models are of pin striped
or candy striped pussy willow shifting,
paiest pink or faint lilac stripes on the
white ground. And, by the way, the
morning blouse now has high turn
over stock collar under which is pass
ed a crushed band of wide black satin
after the manner of the old-fashioned
stock Of 1895.
With these two blouses in the suit
case and a third one completing the
smartness of the tailored suit which is
worn on the train, any woman should
be well equipped for two days in the
country. so long as daylight lasts The
blouse worn with the travelling suit has

All are continually exposed to thou
sand sources of adversely. The sensible
thing for every one is to discover and
adopt the best course of action amid
the certain G:JSresses of life.
Cistresses Will come. How may they
be soothed?
viii an. indulgence in the giddy dis
sipations Of worldly amusements remove
or mitigate them?
This Is the common course pursued by
those who do not rightly consider in the
day of adversely. but some seek refuge
in the cultivation of sullen apathy and
iudinerence-striving to blunt the feel
ings into insensibility from suffering.
Will dissipation or stoicism relieve or
remove misery in the day of adversely?
The wise preacher says to consider in
The great trouble with men is that
they do not consider. and thus fail to
learn the lesson adversely teaches, and
DO not profit by the discipline 1t is in
tended to afford.

the Master was endured for our sakes
that He loved us and therefore suffer.
ed for US. apd in suffering He set us ar
example as well as opened dooi
through which we may pass into the
richest and hottest sympathy when we
are called upon to endure.
We must not forget the wonderful
prayer of our Lord. 1t is an example
love and trust we must submit to Gods
higher wisdom: Nevertheless, not
what will. but what Thou wilt"
How marvelously these words express
the confidence which the human should
have in God! We must always pray
that His will may be done, and we
must try gladly to submit our ignorant
desire to His infinite and loving knowl-
edge. 1t is very hard sometimes when
we are in great trouble to be submis-
slve, but it is the part of the loving
child, and it is made easier for us by
this dear Master of us all. who in His
houN of awful agony submitted His hu-
man will to the Divine will.
III. And now think of the tender and
yet earnest appeal which our Lord
made to His Disciples when His agony
was over. There is sharp contrast in
the words. sleep on now" and Rise
up" which Frederick w. Robertson has
beautifully noted in one Of his sermons
on The Irreparable Past" He shows
how the past Is beyond recovery, and
~
tive and devoted service In the future.
1 wish that this sermon could be re-
printed and circulated among all Ghris-
tians.
The hour for action had come and It
was for the disciples. now, even though
they slept while their Lord agonized,
to face a contest. which has been 60
ing on, alas, ever since, between the
enemies of God and Gods children.
Rise up"' cried the Master. This is
an appeal to every one of US. 1t Ia
no time for sleep; it is no time for
selfish luxury or for indulgence in
those things which weaken and some
times destroy. But 1t is for us to
awake to the great issues and go forth
to the struggle between sin and good
termined spirit. If. from the Geth-
semane story, we can learn how to
mount above the troubles of life and
make them serve US; if we can learn
how to go out every day to stand up
for Jesus, and if we can learn that life
demands every bit of physical and
mental and spiritual energy that We
can summon, then our lesson Will not
have been studied in vain.

Thee, and not to be stupefied by the
pleasures or sins of the world. Help
me to be brave when sorrow comes and
