along all the activities Of men. Sometimes a
newspaper is charged with "exaggerating." but
have you ever considered in what manner men
exaggerate when talking to friends or the repre-
sentatives of a paper? The other day. not far
from Price, man reported TO newspaper that

Speaking Of the possibilities of increasing our
sales TO India of cotton goods the bureau of for
eign and domestic commerce says: The rising
cost of production in England which supplies
nearly all of these goods makes ii possible for
Americans TO compete in at least some of the
qualities that are imported" II has long been
the impression that the prize tenet of the the
democratic party was that cost of production cut
no figure with American manufacturers in re-
spect to competition with our foreign rivals. Has
Doc Pratt's bureau changed its stand on this ar

DOES THE CHURCH COUNT:
The International SundaySchoo
Lesson for Dec. 10 is Faithful
Unto Death Rev. Oh. 2&3.
BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS

Many persons voday have no
time for the church, and they
are brainy, moral and public
spirited persons, too. That
unpalatable fact is commonly
lodged by church folk. Undenla'
bly though, there is a large
group of social reformers who
do not take the church into their
thinking. They do worse than
oppose it: they ignore it. Now
what shall the openmlndeo
Christian say to this condition:
The question is pertinent in the
light of The present Sunday
School, lesson which deaeis with
the seven churches of Asia-for
although only three churches are
indicated in the assigned
passage, the study would be lop'
sided unless it considered all
seven. These were seven city
churches, established in the
great centers of Asia Minor. IN
the seats of Roman power and
cue;ure. The wonderful achieve
ments of the new Gospel are
apparent form the simple fact
that within the lifetime OF one
man, the Apostle John, who Lad
stood by the cross of the crucih-
ed and apparently defeated
Founder of the Church the
brotherhood has become a real
power in all the imperial centers
of Rome's dominions, So fully
matured has the church grown
to be, that we find John now
warning it against danger and
decline. Certainly the Christian
church was not a negligible
quantity in the first century of
the Christian are.

cometb, to bin will give to eat

To the church at Smyrna the
word was, "He that overcometh

death.
To the church at Pergamos

promise. To him. that ovarc o
meth, to him will I give the
hidden mama. and l will give
him a white stone. and upon the
stone a new name which none
knoweth bu. be that receiveth
it,"
The long promise to the over
comers at Thyatira includes,
He that overcometh will I give
authority over the nations.'
In the message to the church
at Sardis we read. He that over
cometh shall thus be a:rayep in
white garments and will in no
wise blot yis name out of the
book of life and l will confess
his name before my Father and
before His angels"
To the church at Philadelphia
John wrote, He that overcom eth
l will make him q pillar in the
temple of my God, AMI he shall
go out thence no more; and I
will write upon him the name of

Finally, to the church at
Laodicea came the message, He
that overcometL l will give to
him to sit down with me ir nv
throne, as also overcame and

Now this uniform conclusion
of each message, with an exhort-
alton to the spirit of overcome
ing, is not by chance. That
promise is stiffening for our
spineless time. Our people are
enervated. We Weld to
