AND ELSEWHERE
DIR. HENDRIx,s SERMON SUNDAY

There has never been a finer sermon
preached in Birmingham or any where else than
the one DR.. w. R. Hendrix pastor of High
lands Methodist church preached last Sunday
morning." said DR.. R. Y. Jones. 81 wish every
body in Birmingham could have heard it. There
was more practical every day religion in it
than almost any sermon have ever heard and
besides it was one of the most eloquent SER
mons Dr. Hendrix has ever delivered. He
reached great heights in his exposition of the
'Beatitudes' interpreting each in such a pract-
cal, human way, that every word he uttered
reached the hearts of his auditors and made
many things clear to otherwise unseeing eyes.
DR.. Hendrix had invited the Sunday school to
attend service and the young people occupying
the gallery hung on his words for he told them
at the beginning of the sermon that he had
something to say to them especially. This he
did at the very close of his sermon, telling one
of the most touching and appealing stories
have ever listened to. Altogether it was great
sermon-one that will never be forgotten by
the members of Highlands Methodist church
who heard it and that included many because
the congregation was one of the largest we
have had in many months DR.. Hendrix is a
great preacher and is doing great work at
Highlands Methodist church."

Poultry yards led with $S45, 900, followed by
$4,000 in meat. Canning, jellying and the

is fourth, although not taken up until late in the

There are 90 women and girls in the bee

The theory of Hobbies that warfare is the
natural state of man is far from proved, al
though it has a basis of fact upon which good
thesis might be built.
In all our prayers and workings for peace We
must not permit ourselves to forget that war
was once the normal condition of society. Peace
was the exception.
1t has been carefully computed that there
have been but 227 years of peace, when no ma
lions or states were at war, in the 3,417 years
of recorded history since 1895 B. B. 1--WE have
done much" said Mr. Joseph Choate, at the
second The Hague conference, August l.
1907 "to regulate war, but very little to pre-
vent it."
After the tremendous cataclysm of the great
war throughout the world thoughtful men and
praying women were aroused as never before to
the tragedy which had made such holocaust
of civilization. Pacifism, the churches, the
workers, the women, business and diplomacy
had failed to prevent it; but not because they
were Indifferent.
This is why today men are feeling that it is
not enough to rely upon the gradual effects of
a higher morality, and enlarged sympathy, and
better mutual understanding among the ma
lions; but that when war comes to an end it
will be after the leading nations have gotten
together in conference and devised plan to re-
duce ornaments and set up a tribunal of some
kind to preserve peace.
1t makes little difference what name is given
to it. but its sphere of usefulness will be through
permanent court of arbitral justice, in which
the consciences of.the nations function; seeing
to it that the Golden Rule shall have chance to
be tried out before resort is had to force Of
arms. The arms conference at Washington is
striving to reach basis of agreement in which
peace, and not war, shall be the normal condi-
ton of civilized nations.

HENRY RIDES A FORD

at so happened that at one of the waits l
happened to be standing near Ford car and
on the back seat I recognized Henry Ford. I
laughingly said: why, didn't know you rode
in Ford?' He smiled and answered: oh, yes,
do. My wife gave me one last Christmas for
present, closed one, as our Detroit climate is
much colder than your Alabama one.'
"The thing which amused me most was the
fact that the great maker of Fords seemed tick
led because his wife had given him one of his
own make for Christmas present"

POINTED PARAGRAPHS

From the Chicago News.
Patience is splendid virtue-in others.
A spoiled child is to be pitied. Also its
parents.
Even white lie is seldom as white as it is
whitewashed.
About two-thirds of the average human heart
is occupied by self-love.
1t is the early husband who catches a glimpse
of his wife's true complexion.
Fortunately mother never knows just what
the neighbors think of her children.
A girl seldom begins to take life seriously
until she has been up against one case of UNI
requited love.
No man who is unable to eat spaghetti grace
fully should attempt to compile book on table
etiquette.
1t is easy to convince the average oman that
her husband is always right-except when he
is arguing with her.
