leader did, we had to attempt. II he

say to you, III you are not making a

low Jesus, you are not playing the
game"
Are you following Him? The only
way to be sure is to turn to His life.
And again we read words something
like this, Don't you know that

He placed God first. Before. His
mother, His father, His relatives, His

He said, Seek ye first the kingdom

God first, enthroning God.

Gypsy Smith, at last nights ser
vice. took as his text, "Follow
Me-" John 1:43. The sermon is as fol
lows
These words are among the first
utterances of the Son of Gods re
corded. They are also found In the
last words recorded of the Son OF God
and you will find them in the last
chapter OF this wonderful gospel
where he says in reply to Peters
question, "and what shall this man
do?" Jesus said. "if will that he
tarry until 1 come, what is that to
thee? Follow thou Me-" In the first
and last utterances of Jesus Christ,
you have these words and all along
through His ministry, He was con.
stantly saying to men. Follow Me-"
II Is the one great, clear, personal,
urgent command OF the Son OF God
to man.
You can remember, many of you.
when you first heard that command,
for most of US present would call
ourselves Christians, that IL We are
linked up in some way with the
church, and IL L came to you and knew
your life and your profession and
knew that II was not in keeping with
the spirit OF the New Testament, and
asked you IL you were a Christian,
can imagine I see the flush rise in
your cheek and a flash in your eye
as you would reply, what do you
take me for?" And yet there are
Thousands in your city who have no
use for the title. Calling myself a
Christian does not make me one.
Another Text As Test.
So I want to bring along side CT
this text another one, and l want you
to test your life by it, as do mine.
ana pray the Holy Spirit will apply
the truth as ] proceed. This is the
text, "If any man have not the Spirit
OF Christ, he In none of His" II is
not what I call myself, but have 1
got His spirit? Are my words and
thoughts and actions controlled, DOM
mated by the spirit OF Jesus? Be

and IL 1 do call myself a follower OF
Christ and have not His spirit, ! am
a fraud. A lie, says the book "and
the truth is not in me-" II we say
we have fellowship with Him. and
walk in darkness, we lie and do not
tell the truth. 1t is Christ in me
and you that makes us Christians.
And one of the reasons who so
many men and women do not darken
our church doors and that so many
of our pews are empty on Sundays, IL
because the world sees so little Of
the spirit OF Christ in us. am pre-
pared to hold a brief for the people
who are abused as nonchurcbgoers.
We use the term blindly, ignorantly.
What about the non-churchgoing folk?
1t isn't true that they do not admire
Christ.
Hate Carieature Of Christ.
I have discovered, in dealing with
men and women, no low ideals OF god
illness; they admire Christ, they re-
we're goodness, but what they hate is
the caricature of Christ they see in
so many of us. II we had more of
the spirit of Christ, they would come
to church: IL we had more of the
spirit that made Christ so attractive,

months. And the less | say, tho more

However, ! suppose | can't refuse to

greeted a reporter in the lobby Of the
Bangor House. I'll try not to tell Won
anything that would assist the enemy
in any way"
Mr.. Davis is a type of the young
men who have gone from the United
States to fly for France. even before
the war was declared. Tall, inclined
to be slight, of athletic appearance
alert and intelligent, he talked of his
experiences on the front as if they
were of no moro consequence and dam
ger than flying at the Eastern Maine
State fair. Genial and with no airs
at all, it was a pleasure to talk with
him.
This aviation business in the war
is more or less a game of hide and
seek" he began.
"And how can you play hide and
seek in the air?"
well, you can seek after the other
fellows observation balloons when
they 60 up, and when you want to
