JUNGLE BEASTS
TAKE CIRCUS TUNE
FOR THEIR CUES

when was little shaver used
to read stories about music charming
animals. The yarns always got my
imagination to soarin' like a kite. l
never got over 'em entirely. for I'VE
noticed lots of things about music and
beasts that other animal men seem to
overlook
The boss animal man Of the Sells
Floto Circus, which will exhibit at
Richmond. Tuesday, May Is. was talk
ing.
ITO tell the truth, however, the pic
lures Of the gentle missionaries play
ing on cracked harmonica while the
man-eating Bengal tiger halted his
pounce upon them Is . bit far-fetched.
Music makes some zoo animals mean.
In the circus, music is sort Of call to
action for the beasts-they know 1t
means parade and performance. It
and the crowds Of people get the jun
gle folk restless. Music Is sort of
cue for them. I remember one group
of lions that worked in the steel arena
a season to a certain tune. One day
the band struck. The show went on
Just the same, but when the animals
came stalking into the arena and
jumped upon their pedestals, they gaz-
ed around and at each other as though
they missed something. Then 1t de-
veIoped that they would not work.

tended for so bad night, and Rev.
Rayburn took for his text the heal
ing of the man with the palsy. This
was a wonderful message of a wonder
full story. 1t teaches that man must
help man come to Christ-a spiritual
lesson to churches. How many pal
sled people have you brought to
Christ? Yes, palsied through SIM
The church must come to the real
ization that we need Christ.
The same old gospel must be
preached now as then and we need
it just the same. Every knocker and
kicker and GROWER in the church and
city is hindering people from being
brought to Christ just as the crowd
hindered the man in the lesson to be
brought to Christ, but they were bur-
dened and forced their way, broke up
the roof and the man was healed.
Why? Because of faith in these men.
Thus it will be in this city. Faith is
what we need all Of one accord.
The speaker gave an earnest plea
for the churches to come back to
Christ; that when the church believes
that men should come to Christ there
will be a. great revival, and as was
the case in the lesson, when the roof
was broken in, something in our lives
must be broken before we can be filled
with the spirit and bring others to be
saved. Someone has to be stretcher-
bearers. The church should never
let loose.
We need recruits now. We cannot af-
ford to do nothing. Those men real
lied that no one but Christ could do
the palsied man any good; so should
we realize that nothing but Christ
can save The church should believe
in what it breaches, found in Acts
Alp.
