"A Breakfast With Jesus"
preached yesterday afternoon by Dr. Lyon

John xxi: II CRevised version)
Jesus said unto them. come and break
fast.
There is no truth Of the New Tes-
lament more important or more wor-
thy to be emphasized than the resur-
rection of Jesus Our Lord lost no
opportunity during the forty days be-
fore his ascension to reveal himself
to his disciples. When Mary came to
them with the message that Christ
had risen, and that He bade them
meet Him at the sea of Gallilee. we
would naturally expect that they
would have hastened Immediately to
see Jesus. But we are told that they
remained in Jerusalem eight days.
Why was this? Doubtless because
they were endeavOring to get all OF
the apostles to go. At last when they
did start they had but a bare ma
iority. Here is the first lesson, do
not linger behind for the laggards ;
do not wait for a unanimous vote.
When Christ calls you. go at once.
When they reached the Gallilean
shore, they looked about and could
not see Jesus. Peter exclaimed ''I an
going fshing!" Here we see the
power of influence l imagine / hear
the others say, We'll, Peter, Jesus
told us to come here and wait for
Him. but if you are going fishing. We
will go also" They enter into a boat
Immediately, but that night they
caught nothing. All the long hours
of darkness, their oars ratified in thu
row-locks, and their nets strained the
seas; but they caught no fish. Why
Because they were working apart
from Jesus. This is a picture of the
church today. They are putting forth
great exertion, church activities are
numerous. but converts are few. The
average religious fisherman is catch
ing few fish. Pastors are padding
their membership rolls and whistling
TO keep up their courage, but the facts
are that in all denominations. things
are in a bad way.
Now in this description there comes
very expressive phrase, But when
morning was come, Jesus stood on

somewhere. Each morning is Gods
offer of a new opportunity. Where
Jesus is. it is always morning. They
were not looking for Him.
How the question OF this supposed
stranger must have struck terror to
their hearts. Have We any fish," II

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?

This question is asked every day.
A cold is really fever, not always
caused by the weather but often due to
disOrdered blood or lack of important

WHAT do you know about it?
" Jack Curley is supposed to be
managing Freddie Welsh, the light
weight champion? Harry Pollok is
in London and other business may
prevent him retaining his job as the
fighters manager and a report in
New York says that Jack Curley is
already holding down the job. The
comment on the change is hardly
flattering.
RICHIE MITCHELL and Charlie
White, two contenders for the
lightweight crown, are to meet at
Milwaukee on May 9. The bout will
serve to eliminate one from the pack
now chasing Freddie Welsh with
demands for a title bout.
"COLDIER" MARESCH didn't

Simms Davis made the right move.

however, that the best of pitchers
have their bad times and it is no

GEORGE BURNS was a catcher
with the Utica club Of the New
York State league when he was
bought by the Giants. They used
him in the Outfield. Now McGraw
proposes to try Burns at third base
as he has had poor luck in grabbing
4 man for the hot corner. It seems
that McKechnie isn't coming up to
expectations.
CLAIMS are being made that "the
largest attendance at any sport
event in the world" turned out for
an auto race at the Indianapolis
speedway. This is a pretty big claim
and it is doubtful if it is correct.
The coup tie" soccer matches in Eng
land and Scotland have drawn
10000 persons to a game and the
Henley regatta, on the Thames, Is
reported to have been witnessed by
100000 persons. The soccer admis-
sion, however, averages about IS
cents and while Indianapolis may
have had the biggest receipts it is
doubtful if it had the biggest crowd.
Some very large crowds, too, have
attended the races near Paris,
France
CLIFF MARKLE, the young pitcher
secured by the Yankees from
the Waco club Of the Texas league,
last fall, is certainly going strong
and is proving that it doesn't take
size to make a big league pitcher.
A RICHER, long rated as the star
catcher of the major leagues, has
been ousted as first string catcher
of the Cubs by Bill Fischer. Bill
went to the Dodgers three years ago
from Toronto of the International
league. He wasn't a star with the
Dodgers. In fact, he was looked upon
as a dub. But he sure is playing
the game with the Cubs. He is
catching like a champion and is
singing the pill at a .292 rate.
