Your Fathers Son
BY REV. w. A. MOORE
Pastor First Christian Church.

Years ago your father began a tremendously
worthwhile task.
Believing i'm the Bible as the word of the living God
and in Jesus as the Christ the anointed the Son of
God he made the good confession and gave his very
lifetime, talent and money-to the church for the
extension of the kingdom.
Years have gone your father has grown old in
Christian service; perhaps he has gone to his reward
You were boy; now man. A generation has al
most passed.
You now the MAN of the family; observe your
wife, children friends, business-and perhaps few
gray hairs. We're not as young as used to be
our fathers. But is you fathers son making
good in the church!
Your father has in his son good citizen-plain
straightforward, square. YOUR fathers son could
hardly be otherwise. But his son must remember
that the highest type of citizen in this country is
more than plain straightforward and square; he is
an out and out Christan-loyal to his God and loyal
to the church
Many sons are trying to dodge the responsibility
so heartily accepted by their fathers. In this they
are not making good. How about YOUR fathers
son7
Your fathers son knew that his city and state to
be great must have the church. Being loyal man
loyal both to his God and his fellow men-he gave
himself right royalty to the support of the church.
One hundred prominent business men of our city
have had fathers who were loyal to God but whose
trying to satisfy themselves with citizen
ship that leaves out God. The most difficult, and
the most worth while task in your city is that of
making the church go, grow and glow. Your father
did his part. Is his son making good?
Every reason that commanded your fathers serv-
ice commands yours His greatest desire was to see
the kingdom of Christ established
Do not permit his greatest desire to fail. Your
failure in the social circle, in business in EVERY
THING can not pain him like your failure toward
God. Even death of both father and son is prefer
able to failure here. Give Christ your whole heart
Keep God in mind. Command that your fathers
son make good in the church Life is short.

Solomon in all his glory never got off anything

Own me a foe your mettle! All,

THE WALL OF A
PAIN-RAOkED BODY
l stopped reading Mary's letter
right where she said she was
afraid, for Dick came for his daily
visit TO me.
He bent over my bed and kiss
ed my cheek lightly and said,
We'll, my dear. l have at last
got things Strengthened out at
the book concern, and, Margie, we
are almost rich."
But you do feel well, don't
you Dick?" l said somewhat ap-
prehensively, for he looked very
worn and tired.
"Yes, l am feeling very we'll.
What / meant was that by the
terms of the will, you know, it
will take me about ten years to
get this thing Strengthened out
SO that il anything happened to
me you would be perfectly inds-
pendent, and l want to live at
least that long.
'How are you feeling, Margie?
How is the Ieg?"
II guess 1t is all right, Dick,
but l feel terribly to be a stick
lying here while you are working
so hard. I am not even a good
chum, let alone q wife,"
I'VE won't discuss that, my
dear" said Dick quietly. "All
you have got to think about is
about keeping your courage and
getting WE'LL"
Would it be a terrible thing
IL / did not get well?"
"Margie, why do you like to
torture yourself and me?"
II don't know, Dick, but truly
] would much rather die now than
be bed-ridden for long time.
When do you think l can go
homer"
II don't know that, Margie;
you must be patient"
DO you want me home.
Dick?"
Dick was silent for a moment,
and then he said, Il am not stay
ing there"
II was so astonished that I
gave my bad leg terrible wrench
and nearly tainted.
II am staying with Jim, Mar
gle; / simply could not stay at
home without YOU"
Then you do love me, Dick?"
you dear woman, can't / ever
again make you believe that I
only love you. that / have never
loved anyone but you, and never
will love anyone but you? All
my foolishness has nothing to do
with loving. Such things have
nothing to do with any mans
loving"
l looked at Dick closely. "Then
you think that no married man
loves the other woman with
whom he has a liason?"
II would not say that, for
some men don't love their wives.
1t is sometimes the wife and
sometimes the other woman a
man loves, but whichever it is he
will keep her in his heart al
ways"
And you love, me. Dick?"
Always. dear heart. SO much
