So 1t is also Christ's command. to the church today, and it is the duty of the church today to lead the penitent to Jesus and to leave with him for his trust and imitation the incomparable Christ, Son of God, Son of Man, The Light of the World,' Our Only Hope.
 The evening sermon was upon St. Paul and the race set before him.. St. Paul knew that if he would win the prize he must run the race. So we. too; must learn that we must run the race. For us the race means our Christian course. our life here below It Is a race that requires all our exertions. all our self denial, but the prize is worth thousand times the. effort. The prophetic message of the Ash Wed nesday epistie is Turn we even to Me with all your heart. and with fasting and with weeping. and; with mourn ing" And having turned to God, we are to wipe our tears. arise from our knees and with an u1alterable deter imitation run the race of life which is set before us. i

The high apotheosis of the old order is seen finally in Ger many's claim to unlimited sovereign ty. the natural outcome of the pre- ceding principles when carried to their Illogical conclusion.
 The New Order.
 The new order that is to be when 'sthe morning cometh" substitutes Christian principles for pagan. The first of the basic principles of the new world order is. Internationalism This principle recognizes the familyhood of nations. As President Hibbins says, There is a higher patriotism that over laps the geographical boundaries of individual nations and dedicates itself to the whole family. Plato was mag nifcently right when lie proclaimed that above all nations is humanity The new order will manifest itself in the second place by universal rec egnition of the principle that sover- eighty must be limited by the definite rights of others as established by in- lternational law. namely the right to i existence, the right to independence, l the right to be recognized as legally and politically on an equality with all tother members in the family of na- tions, the right to hold territory with. EexclusiVe Jurisdiction, and the right | to have these rights duly respected 1 by other nations,
 n the third place the principle will l be recognized that natural wealth is snct for the exclusive and selfish use of Ithe peaTie who chance .te possess the Hand. This principle must control inn Imigration Jaws. i Again the new world order will re- spect the right of every nation to di- frect it's owl, development and maintain i its distinctive culture. The crime of Alsace-I eort'aire and German Poland { must not be repeated. Finally inter national competition must yield place I to international economic cooperation The honoriEg of this principle will pre- clude any economic war after the war.

HOROSCOPE.
Tbursdny, September IL, 1919

This is an unimportant day In
planetary direction, according to as
irology. While Mercury is adverse,
Neptune Is in benefc aspect
It Is not a favorable day for the
signing of leases or contracts. 1t is
particularly unfortunate for any
agreement that depends on artistic
achievement
Authors have the promise Of good
fortune. Literature will gain much in
the coming year. American writers
have a good direction.
It is supposed that Mercury has a
special influence over the nervous
system. Care hould be taken to safe
guard against shock or overwork
when the planet is in evil place.
During this configuration II may be
found difficult to concentrate thought
or to maintain its continuity.
Travel by water is subject to the
best influences this day. The navy
has an augury of success, and there
may be in the next few weeks some
engagement with enemy wershipa
Labor comes under a direction maxi
ing for great benefits that will form
a foundation for extraordinary prog
ress after the war.
Washington, D. c., has as its prin-
cipal ruling planet at this time star
that is believed to encourage selfish
ness and to cause covetousneGs on the
part Of residents. This rule will be
the cause of a sensational occurrence,
the seers predict.
According to ancient lore the rails
ing Of fowls should be most profita Bile
in the coming months.
Many unusual vocations in which
wounded soldiers will succeed are
forecast. Among these will be some
that are the outgrowth, Of inventions
to meet new customs.
Persons whose birthdate II is may
have many annoyances in business
during the coming year. Business
should be safeguarded. New friends
are probable. Extraordinary care
should be taken in signing papers.
Children born on this day may be
wayward and impatient under con-
troll. These subjects Of Virgo usually
succeed best as employees.
