Seeds Used as Fuel.

Hundreds Of tons of peach and
apricot seeds, which have been thrown
away every season heretofore by the
canning factories in the great fruit
districts of California, are now sold
as fuel and bring $3.50 a ton retail.
Formerly the seeds were considered
too hard for fuel, but recently it was
found that when heated in a stove
burning hard coal they soon pop open
and ignite, after which they burn with
an intense glow like that of anthra-
cite, and are practically smokeless, be-
sides holding a fire well.-Popular Me-
chanics Magazine.

had no trouble in finding topics for
sermons. My greatest difficulty was to
find opportunity to use the wealth Of
material which was constantly accu-
mulating. Moreover in q few months
God gave us q season of spiritual re-
frshing which increased the church
membership about so per cent.
Moving to another church later,
began the same method of giving a
book study once a month, asking the
congregation to read it in advance. I
began this time with the New Tesla
ment, and found the results to be prac-
tically the same as before. And again
in a few months there followed re-
vival which transformed the church,
and added greatly to its usefulness and
power.
Doubtless I have made ae many
mistakes and plumbers as the average
pastor. but as look back over C long
and happy ministry 1 can see that my
highest enjoyment and what little serv-
ice | have been able to render to the
cause of Christ, is largely due to the
book studies which l began in my
early ministry.

and to talk about it more, not only dur

week service, and young peoples
meeting. The young folks especially
were eager to get the monthly fold

How to
Encourage Bible
Reading
BY REV. HOWARD ". POPE

TEXT-Preach the preaching that
bid thee-Jonah S:12.
Early In his ministry the writer was
led to begin preaching on the books of
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1917-06-01

Of the Bible, beginning with Genesis.
| istic name, for instance, Genesis is the
book Of beginning, because it de-
scribes the beginning of the universe,
the beginning of this world, the be-
ginning Of man, the beginning of Ian
| guage, the beginning of the Sabbath,
the beginning Of sin and the beginning
of grace.
AS a large part Of my congregation
| consisted Of children and youths, it
was necessary for me to preach the
subject in a popular rather than
scholarly way, and above all to make
it exceedingly interesting. 1 tried to
explain what the authors purpose was
in writing or compiling the book, and
what were the probable sources Of his
| information.
Without going into the subject in an
exhaustive way, I tried to tell the
story of creation in popular style and
at the same time to show how the pic
ture accounts compared with the facts
of modern science.
! The temptation and fall of man
opened up the subject of origin of sin,
and the story shows the effect of sin,
not only upon our first parents, but
! upon the race as a whole, and there
fore it has a practical application to
everyone.
| Genesis.
AS the first two chapters of Genesis
deal with generation, the third chapter
takes up the subject of degeneration,
and the remainder of the Bible, as
someone has said, is devoted to the
subject of regeneration.
The story of the flood opens up
new theme of exceeding interest, and
Noah's deliverance is a splendid type
of salvation. Babel with it's confu-
sion of tongues, suggests Pentecost,
where people of all tongues understood
Gods message, and the coming day
when all Gods people shall use the uni
versal language. Thus I went on
touching the points which had the
greatest practical value.
Then briefly reviewing the book I
called attention to the three principal
haracters-Adam, Noah and Abraham.
From them we can learn three prac-
! teal lessons. From Adam we can
learn to obey God; from Noah to talk
to God; from Abraham to trust God.
At the close of the service | gave
| to each person in the audience four
page folder, containing brief outline
| of my address, including the principal
| facts, dates and outline, together with
| the Sunday school lessons drawn from
the study of the book.
l asked the people to read the book
of Genesis through, and at our next
meeting to come prepared to pass an
examination upon the outline l had
| given. At the next service l would
spend ten or fifteen minutes in ques-
tioning the congregation upon the book
of Genesis, briefly reviewing what we
had gone over before. Then took up
the book of Exodus and gave an adj
| dress on that.
