take COURAGE
4 Message From Gods Word
for This Time Of World
Conflict.

This word appears again and again
In the Bible. Paul thanked God and
took courage" And, to all who will
listen, the psalmist says: "Be Of good
courage, and he shall strengthen your
neart, all We that hope in the Lord"
These are trying times in which we
live. The world has lost it's balance {:
the seas moan as they swallow the
struggling bodies of brave men; the
land drinks the blood Of the valiant,
and the breezes are sad funeral walls {:
the suns light is dull; the universal
human heart aches; eyes the globe
around are dim with weeping. What
the morrow will bring forth, we know
not; anxiety prevails everywhere; we
walk erect and try to appear cheerful
but We are afraid.
Nor is the human heart disturbed
alone by the war. There is an unnat.
ural restlessness in every sphere. The
Christian religion. the worlds hope
the individuals hope-is. itself, an oh.
ject Of attack from all sides. Some
say it has failed; others declare that
1t must be reconstructed to suit the
times; and still others insist that It
has never been correctly interpreted.
The people. religiously inclined, as they
ever will be, are confused.
Also, we each wrestle with our own
disappointments and temptations and
sorrows. None are exempt from trou.
BILE. We suffer, we brood, we cry.
But Gods Book is in his world. 1t
Is his sun whose light is dimmed by
the clouds. The nations stumble; the
church stumbles; individuals stumble.
It's because the clouds are heavy and
black, and we fail to see the pitfalls.
But the Bible is stationary. The
roar of cannon will not move it, nor
will the pointed bullets of angry ma.
tons pierce it. This Book will sue.
cessfully withstand the battering rams
Of criticism God. manifest in the
flesh, hath said: "Heaven and earth
shall pass away, but my words shall
not pass away" The Book divine will
remain in the sky Of human life to
guide the church back into the original
highway of faith and obedience and
service, to guide the nations out of the
wilderness in which they now wander
and suffer into the Canaan of democ.
racy, to guide the individual up life's
hill Of toll and sorrow into the refresh.
ing attitudes of childlike trust and soul
repose.
Courage. all! We are in the twilight,
drenched with the rains, and Knocked
by the shadows. But there's compensa-
ton in 1t all.
Under the storm and the cloud today
And today the hard peril and pain
Tomorrow the stone shall be rolled away.
For the sunshine shall follow the rain.
Merciful Father I will not complain:
know that the sunshine shall follow
the rain.

DOING THINGS IN GODS WAY
We Need the Perpendicular Vision 70
BE Able to Discern the
Right Way.

Every thought and act Of a victori.
Gus Christian is heaven-high. GAS the
heavens are higher than the earth, so
are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts, -
God said through Isaiah. But when
God indwells a yielded life, he puts
his very mind into that one (Phil. 2:5).
Dean Peck Of Denver said in an adj
dress in Philadelphia recently: Moses
went to Pharaoh's court to learn let
tiers, and to the back side Of the desert
to learn sense" Just out Of the first
school, Moses "looked this way and
that" and killed man. After gradua-
ton from the second school, Moses ZEN
dured, as seeing him who is invisible"
One who has noted this adds that
Moses had at last learned the differ.
ence between horizontal and perpen-
dicular vision. Have we entered into
our privilege Of heaven-high thinking
and God's-way doing?-Sunday School

the unpaid bills of the state to BIZ
IN round numbers $5OS. 900. Had
the present administration ar-
celved the same income from direct
taxation for 1917. as was received
IN 1916. plus the normal increase,
there would have been available
to meet these unpaid bills. 1910

unpaid bills OH january Is.
would have been $lS7. 49S.OO
During the entire ten year De-
rlod the unpaid mills on January
LIST have run from three hundred
thousand to five hundred thousand
dollars. This is occasioned by the
fact that the levy is six months
behind the actual expenditures.
The revenue from June LIST to
January LIST, is never sufficient to
meet the current obligations
OF the state and the new tax levy
the bulk of which comes in during
the early part of the year, must
meet five or six hundred thousand
dollars Of bills accumulated dur
ing these months.
So far as the first year of the
present administration differs from
any year of the ten year period.
the difference is all in it's favor.
On January LIST, of last year the
unpaid bills on hand aggregated

made emergency appropriations
and extraordinary appropriations

ing the current biennial period or

cral fund balance at the close of
the last fiscal year, June Both
1917, was 40S,OOO.1G and for the
preceding year there was %4OS,.

present administration was

the preceding year. The average
for the past ten years was $3.50,
3Ol.64 or $157,69s.52 less than
that for the first year of the Fra
zier administration.
The fiscal year ends June Both
and is much larger than the bal.
ance on January LIST, owing to the
fact that the bulk of the taxes
both direct and indirect, are paid
in the early part of the year. The
average balance on December 3lst.
flor ten years has been $47, 577.O3;
this year the balance was $48,.
