can paper said a day or two age
that Woodrow Wilson was not only
the leading citizen of America, but
the leading citizen of the world. 1t
is also true that the United States is
now the leading nation of the world.
In religion, in civilization, in edu-
cation, as we'll as in the finances the
world must now get its pace from
our nation. The world of the future
be. Now is our opportunity to give
them, along with food and raiment,
knowledge of Jesus Christ and the
highest type of religion So then
under this responsibility, our young
people are called upon to learn the
facts
We can fill our hearts with love
for lost world. But to do this we
must first fill them with love to
God. We cannot love the world till
we love God. But if we love God,
and know the world he loves, and
know how much he loves the world
then we cannot but love that lost
world for which the Savior died
Then we can fill the missionary
treasury with sheckels And our
great nation is not wanting in
sheckels. For our nation we could
pile 100000 on every square mile.
We have more than seventeen hun
dred dollars for each man, woman
and child of our nation. If equally
divided, every family of five would
have nearly ten thousand dollars.
But it is not equally distributed.
But did YOU know that the religion
OF Jesus is the greatest equalizer on
earth? 1t does more to lower Lords
and lift the down-trodden than any
thing else on earth In unchristian
lands the rich are the richest and
the poor are poorest. Socialism is
pygmy for making equal beside
Christianity
Now if We will warm the world |
with the love of God it will thaw
out those who have the money and
loosen it up so that we may fill the !
treasury Of the Lord.
And when we fiji the Lords treas
ury He is pledged to give us pros

Lastly, we can fill the field with
workers. Pray the Lord of the har-
vest to send laborers into his vine

Kew. |. c. Jenkins Address On
Epworth League And Missions

Rev. /. C. Jenkins, pastor O
Tampa Heights Methodist church

dress on missions at the opening SEES
sion of the League convention last
night. good portion of which il
gives the Telegram pleasure to re.
produce. Rev. Jenkins said:
The question naturally resolves it.
self into what can the League do fol-
missions? 1T appears to me that
there are four things: We can fill
our heads with missionary facts; we
can fill our hearts with love for a
lest world; We can fill our mission
airy treasury with our American
skeckles; and we can fill the mis-
zion field with workers.
| Few people realize that in mis-
sionary facts there is a liberal edu-
cation. Not only must we learn the
origin of missions and the spirit in
which Christ came into the world
the spirit in which the apostles car
ried his MESA 2e, but we can learn
from the missionary movements the
important facts of progress in the
Christian world as well as that in
the heather world.
The civilization of the enlightened
nations for the last century has
gone hand in hand with their
awakening to the Importance of
missions and the way in which they
have propagated the work. The
progress of missionary conscience
has marked the progress of the
church in Christian lands; the prog
ress of the church has measured the
enlightenment of the people.
But the great flood of missionary
facts come from heather and semi
heather lands. II we learn the
facts of missions in the orient. in
the islands of the sea, In Africa and
in American countries we have got
ten a knowledge of the world that
can scarcely be found elsewhere.
Who has studied and translated
and made erammars for heather
The missionaries. Who
have been pioneers in pressing into
the interior of dark lands? The
missionaries. They have uplifted j.,
people; they have developed govern
ment; they have transmitted taste
for civilization; they have dug up
and written history; they have
studied the various peoples; and
they have opened the way for trade;
they have broken down the barriers
and built up friendship.

League Should Have Travelling
Agent


In recent years, the only field
agent we have had in this State has
been our State organizer, who for
many reasons has found it most diff
iicult to give as much time to this
work as the work requires. So i'm
portant an organization as the
League should have travelling agent
to visit the Leagues of the State,
conduct institutes, and above all cul-
tirate the far-removed corners OF
our State for the summer confer
ence. Therefore, | recommend that
this conference confer with the
State Leagues of the North and
South Geor2ia Conferences to the
end that a Field Secretary be pro-
vided. whose field shall be these
conferences. If we cannot pay for
the whole time of such an agent, we
can perhaps secure one for the spring
months. SO as to prepare the way for
the summer conferences.
The outlook for the League work
has never been better. The work of
the Lea gue-training -is on a high
er plane than ever before. The cry
of the church for trained workers
has never been louder The deter
mination of the League workers to
answer the call has never been
stronger We believe that this
coming year will be banner year,
1--WE are working for the safe of
Christ and the church, and for no
other reason whatever. For this
reason we confidently expect Gods
blessing. We have had it often
times. and we shall have it again,
For the sake of the good work that
they may do hereafter for Christ and
the church, do our 200 Leagues ap-
ply themselves to the task of train
ing their members. For the sake of
Christ and the church do the 5000
Leaguers over the State meet week
after week. Let us not forget that
our motor is "All for Christ" and
let us apply it in the conference here
as everywhere else in the League
