sacraments, or It's forms can save you.
They can only teach you the way Of
salvation"
Pointing out the facts that there
was no saving power in the various
lodges or organizations, nor even in
any church, he referred to the estab-
men of the church ON Gods plan OF
salvation through Jesus Christ. No
one gets license to do evil by giving
money to do good. Don't depend on
anything you do, give or get, There
is salvation in no other name but
Christ.
There is salvation for all. Two
words full of meaning are whosoever
and whatsoever. Whosoever throws
open the door into Gods kingdom
whatsoever gives free range to Gods
goodness and mercy after you enter
his kingdom. Dwight l.. Moody said
he was glad for the word whosoevei

claresi Dr.. vaclay Girsa, local mem

comprehends with difficulty how the
allied democracies can entertain this
noble but rather distant idea, and at
the same time look quietly on q
what is transpiring in Russia" con-
tinued DR.. Girsa.
Russia today is in need Of assist
ance. First OF all she needs reor~
ganization of her railroads. Never
theless. any form of assistance to
Russia is imaginable only in cen
junction with a military expedition
which would be able to guarantees
that the undertaking will not be de-
stroyed by pernicious rebellious and
disorders which have become chronic
"In order, however, that such mil
itary Intervention and economic as
sistance shall succeed, 1t is necessary
to carry 1t out according to clearly
defined plan. that is to say, the re-
moval of the Bolshevik government
from Russia the re-establishmen and
maintenance of order and peace
throughout the country up to the
time when II will be possible for the
Russian people to constitute for
themselves freely and without coer-
cion, their desired form OF govern

be accepted with exultation and with
full confidence by all Notwithstanding
its even more efficient interfering

Adherence to the principle Of nom
interference with Russian internal af'
