The association of which Mr..

At the Birmingham meeting inter-

all along that the only thing neces-

regards it's ability to secure period

for Paris without answering the COM

belief was expressed that a reply Will

The deliberations of the commits

even when consulting government Of

tesy call on the chancellor, the mem
bers of the commission singly or col
lectively have conferred chiefly with
departmental heads of the ministries
of finance, economics and foreign af
fairs.
Although the heads at the foreign
office are reported to have made
strong efforts to impress the mem

ternal and external effects q forced

commissioners have declined to sug-

"MEMBERs IN PARTICULAR,
sERMoN-DR. STUART.


Declaring that members 'in par
ticular" and not members in general
were wanted in the church of God
today. DR.. George r. Stuart. pastor
of the First Methodist church, Sun
day morning preached on the need
of workers in the church who I'M
derstand their proper relation to the
church, have the spirit of love and
sacrifice, and real personality to ac-
complish things.
Before opening his sermon DR..
Stuart presented the new associate
pastor of the First church, Rev. B. G..
Hodge. to the congregation. and paid
him fine tribute, at the same time
expressing great regret over the de-
parture of Rev. James D. Hunter. for
the past two years his associate, who
will join the Alabama conference, and
is slated to become. pastor of st.
Francis Street church at Mobile.
DR.. Stuart took two texts as the
basis of his sermon, one being found
in First Corinthians, 1927. Now We
are the body of Christ and members
in particular" and the other in Ephe-
slams, 5:33: Let every one of you
love his wife even in particular as he
does himself"
1T is the same man who In two
| different epistles uses this express
sion in particular, and uses II in
speaking to the two most worldly
cities of that part of the world, Cor
inth and Ephesus." said DR.. Stuart,
in part. I'm the previous chapter the
relation of the members of the body
to the whole are shown. and 1t is
pointed out that II every member per-
forms it's function the whole body
will live and thrive. And so it Is
also shown that If a husband and
wife each works with the other and
in harmony. both will not fail in full
filling their mission. What would be
the result If any part of the body
would refuse to perform it's func-
tion?"
At this point DR.. Stuart used the
ears as an illustration, which are
hardly noticed, but have a very i'm
portant function, and compared them
with the attitude of many church
| members, who complain because they
imagine they are not being noticed
and therefore refuse to function
This picture of the body and its
members IL shown by our Lord to
show that each member, no matter
how insignificant. is necessary to the
| promotion of the Kingdom of God.
| w Hdt nave you uOHc III particular.
Are you a member In particular 90
asked DIR. Stuart.
THE relation Is of next impor-
lance. l do not know Of anything
more important than relation of hus-
band and wife. And there is a great
menace in the large number of d.
vorces in this country. Here is a
woman. who today dimes with an
other woman's husband at the club,
and tomorrow goes automobile riding
with still another and is hardly ever
seen in the company of her own hus-
band And the question Is asked
| Whose wife Is she? oh. nobody's in
particular And there Is the other
wife who Is a true helpmeet, who en-
couraees her husband and is tower
of strength to him In days of trials
and tribulations. She is his wife in
: particular"
