New Minister breaches
A Fine Serman

The Palisade church pulpit was oc-
cupied last Sunday by promising
young minister, Rev. Marcus A,
Spencer, whose home is in Pittsburgh,
but who is serving church at pres
ent in Weehawken. He is a modest
young man, a student of Union Sem
mary, with the marks of sincerity in
all his words. He delivered an able
little sermon of some twenty minutes
duration, and it is a question if a
single syllable he uttered was lost.
1t was his directness, his definiteness,
his abject simplicity, his complete
lack of establishment that made his
talk most impressive. No one failed
to grasp all that he was saying, and
furthermore, all took his sermon
home to themselves, and home with
them.
The text was from Acts 1:8, "And
we shall be my witnesses, both in
Jerusalem, and in all Judea and
Samaria, and unto the uttermost part
of the earth"
"The is the last recorded utter
ance," the speaker said, "of our
Aolu vi SdItil, anu DIS SuCu IL COIIlcS
to us with peculiar weight and au-
thority. 1t partakes the nature both
of prophecy and last command
'Ye shall be my witnesses'--a pro-
phecy surely that has been abund-
antly fulfilled in the past, and is be-
ing fulfilled now in the present-a
command that still lays it's hold upon
our hearts and wills to-day.
Christ" said the speaker, seemed
to behold in vision great court
house scene. 1t is from that that his
figure is drawn, just as is the case
in his talks about the Judgment on
the last day. The world is the jury
all the men and women who are not
yet his followers. Whether Jesus S
case will convince them or not will
depend upon the testimony of His
witnesses. He is to leave the earth
now, so He can no longer plead his
case personally as He has done
hitherto. That must be done by His
witnesses. On them depends His sue
cess, He tells them. And who are
those witnesses to be? The Apostles
to whom He is speaking, and through
them, all Christians. You and / and
every Christian that ever has lived
or ever will live, are the witnesses
whom Christ calls to establish His
claims over the hearts of men. I'm
less we testify well, His case will
never be won. And we are testify
ing all the time, whether we realize
it or not. The jury never stops
sitting for single moment. One of
our commandments says, Thou shalt
not bear false witness against your
neighbor.' Do we always bear true
witness to this Greater than our
neighbour"
After telling story of what con-
stitutes the best witnesses before a
court of law, the young speaker told
of how we could best testify in be-
half of the Master. In court, hear
say evidence is not admissible. The
witness must have seen or known
something. think such and such a
thing will have no bearing. All the
jury wishes to find out is, "What do
you know that bears upon this case ?"
"Now, it is just the same kind of
testimony" he said, "that bears upon
the case of Christ, that convinces the
non-C Christian about Christianity.
You cannot bluff him into thinking
you know lot about it by mere talk.
God does not expect you to testify
about something you do not know.

WASHINGTON, Sept, IA plan
for cooperation in war legislation in
the parliamentary bodies OF the United
States. France, Great Britain, Italy
and Russia was presented to members
OF the house last nigh, by Henry
Franklin Bolton, vice president Of the
chamber OF deputies at Paris.
Mr., Bolton, speaking in the hall OF
the house urged appointment OF a con
gressional committee oi twenty-five
seven senator's and eighteen representa-
tiveS. as United States intcrparlia-
mentary delegation TO Join with similar
bodies from the other allied govern
ments IN quarterly meetings, Without
power oi any Kind the conference would
act IN an advisory capacity to the va
riouS parliamentary aSSCmhlagcN The
suggestion was warmly applaudcd but
no member proposed that it be carried
out
Mr. Bolton spoke NJ the need OF
cooperation and friendly aiilllatlon be
tween the allies and sad meetings al
ready held IN Paris London and Rome
had been very beneficial IN war lcgiS
lation. He explained that the plan was
not to bind the governments in any way
but to haSc sessions lasting not cN-
oecding five days-at time to exchange
ideas and get all the information pos
sible as TO what the respective govern
ments are doing TO obtain victory Of
the allies"
There apparently is little sentiment in
the house in favor OF participating in
the plan.
