mon i'm which he described those
qualities which are necessary for

Rev. Decker told how the legend
of the Holy Grail was the favorite
theme of the poets of the middle
ages and how it had colOred the
literature of all intervening ages
and continued. The Holy Grail
was the dish from which Jesus ate
at the last supper. Joseph Of Ari-
mathea preserved the platter as a
souvenir of that great occasion and
brought il 70 England. According
TO the legends the grail possessed
mystic qualities being able 10 feed
those who. like Joseph. were with
out sin and comforting many bless
ings upon those who beheld it.
ION this account the sight of the
Holy Grail came 10 he much de-
sired. and for it the knights were
willing 20 give their lives But GER
tain qualities We're necessary for
those who would find the Holy
Grail. II blinded all who looked
upon IT, or struck dumb all who
came into its presence. except those
who were pure. Those. therefore,
who would find the Holy Grail must
be brave and pure. They must he
willing 20 leave friends and poses
sions behind and each must 20 his
way alone
"In the quest of Life Eternal"
continued the speaker. those same
qualities are essential 1t is a bat
de that requires bravery IL is a
life that demands purity The love
of ease and goods. and even friends
must not hinder the knight of this
holy quest"

SAYS HEART IS
LIKE A VOLCANO
Rev. M. c. Hunt Declares Evil
InCIinationS Ever Ready
to Break Out.

Comparing the human heart to
the slumbering volcano, which sud-
denly breaks forth into violent
eruption, Rev. Melvin G. Hunt. pas
tor Of the Trinity Methodist church.
i'm his sermon sunday on Buried
Volcanoes" warned his audience
that evil inclinations within men are
ever ready TO break forth if not held
in check by Christian influences. As
illustrating his theme, Rev. Hunt
described the sudden eruption of
Vesuvius which buried the ancient
city of Pompeii and the heart of
the unredeemed man as pictured in
the story of Simon Magus. set forth
in the eighth chapter of Acts.
He said in part:
Evil il Natural.
The unchanged human heart
contains a more volcanic element
than ever nestled within the crater
Of the volcano. The thing wrong
with Simon Magus is the thing
wrong with every man untouched of
GOd-he had a bad heart. This
does not mean that there is no good
in folks, or even that there is but
little good; it does mean that in
every life there is a fatal tendency
toward evil This is seen in nature
leave an American beauty rose
without care, and it tends rapidly
back TO the wild state: leave your
line apple tree uncultivated, and in
few years small, sour fruit will be
borne. Leave the human heart to
itself and it always reverts TO gross
evil. The civilized man in heather
lands goes lower than the heather;
the refined man of the eastern home
degenerates in the lumber camp of
the northwest. Without its ten
righteous. Sodom will he over
thrown: and without the influence
of Christian people this land would
sink beneath the morals of the
cave man. Why? Because there is
moral twist in all men, that left
to themselves. fore dOOms them 10
evil
New Heart the Remedy.
a new heart is the unacceptable
remedy Had the Bible not pro-
claimed that necessity. nature
would. Man is basically wrong on
the inside, and all the outward ablu-
tions and ceremonies will leave that
wrong wholly untouched. Every
heart has in it a volcano, and the
| only way To eradicate it is TO have
new hear. The Psalmist cried:
Create in me a clean heart, and
! God spoke through the old prophet,
i will give YOU "A new heart. This
is the need, and only God can sup

If any man will hear my voice, and
