''Oh, stop that eternal solitaire and talk to me-" said Imogene. impatiently
 @No," said Andrew. Instead of that I will teach you one of the simpler forms so you can do it.' He began to shuffle the cards.
 But what for?" asked Imogene.
 50 you can do it yourself" said An drew. "see, in this kind you take five cards off the pack, so." He suited the action to the words. You arrange them in five piles like an old-fashioned marble game, one on each corner and one in the middle.
 Now, you take the cards off the pack one at time and you build up on the corners and down in, the middle. Now. this is a six; it will notsplay any where, so lay it off to one side
 What for?" asked Imogene.
 That's the discard pile,p he ex- plained. ''Whenever you get a card which will not play on one of the cor ners or in the middle, you lay it off to one side, but you must always watch 1t, so if the chance comes to play it you can play it on one of the piles.''
 What for?" asked Imogene-
 "Why. you see, the object of the game is to get the cards all in one pile hero in the midd1e.'
 What for?, asked Imogene.
 Andrew looked up at her a moment and. then resumed: This, now, is z nine and can play it here on the eight and this ace will play there in the mid- dle on the deuce. Next, get a queen, which will not play anywhere, so lay it ocvere here on the six"

to take one into an art gallery and show him a masterpiece.
 50 the best way to get a correct idea of God is not by analysing His charac- ter and studying His attributes, but by Joking at Jesus, Who is the image of the invisible God. He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father said Jesus.
 "One thing that impresses us about Jesus is His consuming zeal. All His in- tellect, powers and passions seemed to be concentrated upon the accomplishment of a mighty task Nothing could dis courage Him or turn Him aside, and at the last He cried, It is finished. This IS a picture of the jealous God.
 "The zeal of God is manifested in the works of creation. He never gives up. Through the ages he has gone on per- fecting His plians and works. He has used unseemly instruments, but ali things have been made to work together fer good and the beautiful world of today speaks of the zeal of the infinite God.
 'grhe history of civilization is the story os the jealous God. He has brought the race through the milliniums, through wars and famines and pestilences; but He has never given up. He is looking to the final federation of the world and the brotherhood of man. This is our nope for sinful world the zealous God will not give up, and His ideals will yet DC realized.
 ssThe history of redemption tells the story of Gods unwNering and flaming zeal. He has used altar, tabernacle, tenn ple. synagogue and church; He has used sacrifices, priests and prophets; He dio not hesitate at the cross or the tomp. And finally the way was open ana pro vision abundantly made for all who Wiil to take the water of life freely. HIS redeeming zeaf reaches after aH;, He stands at the door of the sinners heart and knocks If any man IS lost, 1t IS not Gods fault. God is zealous to finish the work begun in the human heart; fie will not be satisfied till we are like unto the perfect Man, Jesus
 "The zeal of God means ultimately new earth. This is our hope and the ground of our rejoicing When the wheels of progress seem to be backward, let us not give up God still lives; He mas not lost his interest in the world. In spite of the sins of men and the greed o1 na- tions our God is moving on. The king doms of this world shall become the kingdom of our God, the zeal of the Lord shall perform it.

of life and from which the last dror must be drained in drinking salvation from sin.
 "The very first payment we must make for the benefits received from God is to take the cup of salvation and drain it, said Dr. Edmons. q do not know how many of you are living like Christ would have you live, but I do know that the first thing you are asked to do is to take the cup of salvation from sin, from un- worthy character, and from unworthy life. It is the first payment for benefits received.
 'The next thing asked of you is simply to pay your vows. How many of you have stood in the presence of the Bible and God and taken the vow to, follow Him and to live your life as He would have you live? How many have paid that VOW? The question is have you paid the simple vows asked of you? It is the only way to live the Christian life.f'
 At tine communion service Sunday morning the choir of the church rendered beautiful program of music consisting of anthems by Rogers and Shelley. which were thoroughly enjoyed. The choir cons sists of Emile Levy, director; Mrs. F. c. Chandler, soprano; Mrs. L. B. Crowder, contralto; Owen Gillespy tenor, and R. c. J. Kaufman, bass.
 The Lyric service of the Independent Presbyterian church Sunday was es- pecially interesting and a large audience heard Dr. Edmonds speak on the sub Ject of '"The Spent Summer" Of added interest at the service was the rendition of popular melodies and other musical selections by the chorus of the colored Congregational church. The music of the evening was given by this chorus and proved to be very enjoyable.

CHALLENGE OF THE
 CROSS"-DR. LENNON

At the morning service at the First Christian church, Ensley, the Rev. T. L.. Lennox preached sermon of appeal and interest on "rne Challenge of the Cross. ' pr. Lennox said, in part:
 'In the early days of Scotland the people were divided into clans. each Of which had it's chieftain. The spirit of strife was often very bitter between the different clans, so that secrecy was ob- served in al itheir movements as far as possible. Scott tells us that when cer- tain clan yas ohave a meeting, light cross of wood was charred by ire a ius poin. and the flames quenched in the blood of a goat. This cross was then sent around to the villages and mem bcrs of the clan, with only the name of the meeting place, each man sending 1t on to his neighbor. Each was bound under fearful anatheinas to heed this chal- lenge:
 's When fits the cross from man to man,
 Vich Aipine's summons to his clan,
 Burst be the ear that falls to heed,
 Palsied the foot that shuns to speed
 "So to men today comes the challenge of tte cross, "a cross scorched by his suf- ferings, stained by hfs blood. He who re- fuses uo heed it's challenge has no prom ise of salvation from sin, or an entrance into the city of our God. He said unto all: If any man would come after me let him deny himself and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
 This challenge to all' is the challenge of the gospel Wherever the story is told to men there the cross of Christ is hon. ored and glorified.
 "There is a high necessity for all. Ills way is the imperative highway for ai' who would reach 1ifes great end and at- tain to the glory revealed in the iife or Jesus It is the path of discipline, Of en- richnient. of higher worth, of holy ascent and of eternal blessedness.
 sIt is quite impossible to study the li1e of Jesus, especially as he drew into the darkness of it's tragic close, without be- ing struck with the note of challenge which was so often upon his lips. He con frontee the worlds unspeakable anguish with q great invitation: 'Comeunto me- Let not your hearts be troubled Tn my Fathers house are many mansions. Ten- dere- VI ords were never spoken. His soui was instinct with pity, his words pur- dened with love. sBut he had word vibrant with chai- lenze. Are ye able to drink the cup sha' I drink? or to le baptized with the bap- tism that am baptized with?' Are ye able? Are ye the men? Do ye will lt'
