"WAIT ON LORD"
is SUBJECT OF
INSPIRING TALK

The Rev, Galus Glenn Atkins. d.
d.. former pastor OF the First Con.
gregational church Of Detroit. and
now OF Providence, spoke in his
former church. Sunday morning.
taking as his text for very in
spring sermon. the passage from
Psalms, Wait. wait 1 say, on the
Lord" lie emphasized the partner
ship existing between God and man,
and the necessity of Gods waiting
for US even as much as We wait for
him. DR.. Atkins said in part:
Wait on the Lord for the word
to begin He who plants his seed
in the soil before nature and God
have prepared it for him will lose
his seed He who lays sickle 10
the crop before it is time, will lose
his crop. And so. however hard II
is to wait, It is necessary TO wait
upon the Lord for success.
Wait on the Lord for strength.
Each days strength is for that day,
and the morrow will find more en-
ergy being given for the morrow's
trials. Each sorrow will be followed
by comfort enough to bear that sor.
row, each disappointment by Joy to,
meet that disappointment
Wait for the Lord for his inter-
pretatlons, and when you have re-
ceived His word to begin, go with
Him step by step. When you have
received His strength, use it in fol-
lowing Him. When you have re-
ceived His interpretations. you will
be able TO do as He would have you
do.
There is a waiting that is mere
ly waiting. There is a waiting that
Is preparing and conserving ready
for the word TO go. He who waits
for fate will be disappointed He
who waits for law will be sorely
tried. But he who waits for the
Lord, viii wait as child the holy
love OF father, or the tender care
Of mother. Wait, say, on the
Lord"

TRUE CIVIC PRIDE.

All parents realize that certain
amount of fresh air is necessary for
the health and welfare of growing
children, and leave it to any or all
of the members of the Civic League
to judge as to whether it is not very
much better for the child to indulge
in any outdoor sport (even the horrid
skating) rather than to develop a
taste for down town soda water, and
moving picture shows. The future of
any community depends to a great ex-
tent on the coming generation and il
strikes me that nothing could give
greater cause for civic pride than the
fact of having our streets full of rosy
checked. fine looking, healthy chill
