Figures compiled by the stock sales
committee Monday showed that there
is yet $4,000 needed to complete the
sales of $4,000 worth of stock be-

There are many men in the city

stock, and the committee plans to
broach them Tuesday or Wednesday
on the matter of aiding the associa-
tion. When the $4,000 is raised the
stockholders will hold a meeting and

boast the power of the man who
wrote:
$50 nigh is grandeur to our dust.
So near is God to man,
When duty whispers low Thou
must"
The youth replies, 4 can
Over against this colossal compla-
cency of the impotent man stands the
word of God concerning the mind of
the natural man that it is enmity
against God and they that are in the
flesh cannot please God.
If We will be able to undertake the
great ministries Of life we must come
to the place of the Gross. Then we
can say, II can do all things through
Christ, who strengtheneth me-"
One-third of the gospel stories are
taken up with recital of or a re-
ference to the death of Jesus. If our
Savior Himself as well as those whom
He taught deemed His death and
resurrection so vital and necessary to
the salvation of man. surely we must
remember that it is ''the power of
God to everyone who believeth."
I'm the Cross of Christ l glory,
Towering DER the wrecks of time;
All the light of sacred story
Sheds around it Head sublime"
The Cross gives to man the gift of
lift eternal. 1t gives the one dynamic
for service. 1t affords the one power
to uplift humanity. The history of
Christian missions attests this fact.
1t is told of an old Scottish woman
who attended the preaching of the
blind preacher, George Matheson.
who when asked why she moved from
her basement room to a sunny gar
ret, replied, "Ye Gamma hear Mathe-
son preach the Gospel and live in
cellar"
Then we have in the death and res
direction of our Savior our one hope
for heaven and home in the beyond.
