led all such orders and stubs.

sioner with the records in the County
Treasurers' Office, and find them to

We have compared all orders drawn
on the County Poor Fund with the
records in the County Treasurers' Of
flee and find them to agree and we

Element"
We have, in accordance with a re-

God corresponds to crossing Jordan
dying to old interests and entering into
the new inheritance under the leader
ship Of Jesus, our Joshua.
Then we learn that the New Crea-
ture is to conquer the perverted appe-
tites of his own flesh. which CORE
spond to the idolatrous peoples Of Ca
naan-tO drive out these earthly hopes,
ambitions, weaknesses, perversions. etc.
If the work of exterminating were
carried on thoroughly, the result would
be ripened character.
Joshua's Wise Exhortation.
When Joshua realized that he was
about to be gathered to his fathers"
he called the Israelites together, re
minded them of the Lords mercies and
manifest favOrs toward them. and
warned them respecting the necessity
OF separation from the people Of the
land-Gentiles; otherwise the tendency
might be toward idolatry. Then he
took his stand and announced, ."As for
me and my house, we will serve the
Lord" The others joined in the same
resolve.
According to human reasoning, idols
would appear to keep religion before
the mind; but II was not Gods way.
The true God had instituted in Israel
pure worship, In every way con
demning sin. pointing out the necessity
for its cancellation and for drawing
near to God in His appointed way.
The true religion appealed to the high
est, noblest sentiments, while the false
religions appealed to the baser pas
sions, combining form Of godliness
with qualification Of the flesh, dancings
and various saturnalia.
Gods Favor Returning to Israel.
As previously shown, the Bible indi-
Gates very clearly that Israel's last
great lesson Of oppression under the
Gentiles closed in 1914. That pc
period, $500 years long, began when
the crown was taken from King Zede
kiah, B. c. G06. Since then, Israel
has not been an independent nation.
