haYe done both without and within
there is need that we keep before us
the picture Of some things within our
borders lest we too strenuously insist
upon certain ideas as the bringar of
milleniums to other lands. But our To-
sition as mandstor whether under the
league Of Nations or under the law of
service makes 1t inevitable that we
shall not dump into China and Mexico

never allowed to defeat his spirit. He
kept his body under lest he should be
disqualified" Moral loyalty that re-
fused to put stumbling block in the
way of any and held him rigidly to the
performance of those things that would
not injure marked every act of his life.
And such are the sort of folk that God
seeks for place somewhere in His far
flung fields.
THE VICTORY OF THE PERSON.
Final victory or defeat is settled upon
the plains of personal life. Do l learn
the secret of self-control? If l do there
awaits me larger field outside but
failure here dooms all the rest. Bishop
Mcintyre would never have held that
position hak he not won his fight as
boy of sixteen when Pearson upon his
very first day of employment insisted
that no man could become brick-layer
without drinking beer. Daniel would
never nave been heard of if he had not
struggled with his own strong desire
for social conformity upon which rested
so much of his hope Of perferment at
foreign court. And it was a real fight
because he had been chosen because of
these very social qualities that desired
to please rather than antagonize. But
having hoisted the flag of personal pur-
itv he refused to lower it and having
forced defeat upon policy within he was
prepared to carry it to the far heights
on the outside. Paul faced a social
nature whose strength can be measured
by the lists of his friendships appended
to all his letters and demanded that it
obey his will to exalt his Christ. Fail
ure here would have ruled him out of
the company of the Immortals. Upon
what motive may we make our fight?
1t hurt the body but that may be the
plea of cowardise and will aid only the
weak. 1t damages social standing but
this is merely the prop of policy. 1t Is
unchivalrous to do anything in my own
life that will debase womanhood or
childhood and formerly my own pleas
ure I'll damn no other mans daughter
to a condition to which would not con-
sign my own. Here we come to the big
ground to which even the blase roue
bows with the respect which he refuses
to the man who controls himself from
either of the earlier motives. This was
the thing that ruled Paul and must rule
every other worker of the King. This is
the CbristIy rule that's the only real
control of self.
THE VICTORY OF THE NATION.
There has been won one of the great
est victories in the nations life that
history has ever known. A democracy
of freemen has decreed that for the
sake of fitness to serve the high call of
leadership it will control its appetite for
debasing thing. And it is very
specious plea that this was done in the

TWO FARM HANDS.
These are days of selected service so
that the person who is fitting for par
-ticular task gets it while another is put
into another place. The church has al
ways pursued the system for called men
have been the ministers and leaders
from the days of Moses until now. The
lesson gives the picture of some of
these workers upon Gods farm that we
may learn something of the qualiica-
lions needed in the work. First is a
group of boys who have been selected
because of their high type of mentality,
physical fitness and social adaptiveness.
They were the first Rhodes Scholars in
history for chosen upon the basis of
personal merit they were set down in a
foreign university whose standards
differed from their own. Daniel was
their leader but they all easily came to
the foremost places. But it was not
thru conformity but by their loyalty to
the home standards so that the things
that they had already proven true in
the winning of their positions were to
be continued in the new life. Moral
standards were not to be abandoned
and the boys won thru their obedience
precisely as our later youths in khaki
have done in France to the amazement
of their generous hosts who would have
treated each one as Bishop Hughes
was treated with yeritable
procession of differing bottles
of rare wine until he was able to call a
halt. Work was to be done and only
fitness from unbroken training could
keep them up to the mark. Putting
Gods work first other things fell into
their rightful places and they hold po-
sitions of honor in the great record of
the Eternal. Another figure appears
in the text from the New Testament,
this time grown man who has scars
all over the bruised body from stones,
and stripes, and blows from lictor' s
rods. His head was bloody but I'M
bowed" This is Paul. university man,
Pharsaic leader, Christian missionary,
who knew enough of the need of physi-
cal stamina to employ trained direct
or of his health in DR.. Luke who drew
a conside -ably smaller salary than does
Billy Sunday but who filled the same
position. Paul speaks of the training
for the games and his own employment

and the missionaries who will proclaim
it as one element in the rebuilding of
the world that is constructive and SER
viceable instead of adding to the waste
already made. A long step forward has
been taken toward the day when all the
earth shall keep its brain clear and its
body fit for the tasks that must be
done and speedily.
