Gently we had to spend a night in a
churchless community. We were ad-
vised to lock the car, and not leave
anything in it, or it would not be
there in the morning. Within 40
miles of that locality we stopped for
several days in a rural community
where church had been supported
through years and we never thought
OF removing tools or luggage from
the car, it was safer there unlocked
and in the open than in the other
community under lock and key. The
church had done its work-it had not
failed. The best safe guard for any
community is the church from which
the principles of Christianity are
taught. In such place children do
not grow up with the criminal in

ty, common honesty and Christian
character are contributions of the

it was timely, we did not expect sucl

on the people where it should rest
and we don't propose to change ever
though our critics continue to how
their heads off. "a mans foes shall
be they of his own household" From
the household of faith" came the
bitterest Recommendations. We have
only to quote from the screed of a
former minister. He says, "the
church has failed first and chiefly
because it has never set itself to de-
stroy the works of the devil which
Christ was manifested that he might
by his servants destroy-such as
slavery and the liquor dealing and
carnal war. The church since the
first century has followed and been
subject to the world powers to bind
autocracy and moves like a disorder
ly and divided retreat in roads of
indirection to the first thing that
Christ seeks to Destroy" The fall
lacy of the above argument is so self
evident that it is hardly worth con-
sidering, yet it is just such SANDER
Gus statements made by those from
whom we would expect more logical
reasoning and truthful assertions
that cause the mischief at the pres
ent time. First and chiefly he says
the church has never set itself to de-
stroy the works of the devil.
