are those who have grief, suffering,
adversely. They realize that rever-
SEES are not avoidahle, and sslf help
alone is inadequate to the severity of
their circumstances. They realize
the necessity of depending on Proyi-
dence for strength and relief.
Most successful and prosperous
persons give but little thought of
prayer, as they seem not to need it.
They flatter themselves over their
wisdom, shrewdness and competency,
taking !credit themselves for their
good fortune and happiness. They
preach the doctrine of selfdepend-
ence, asserting that God helps those
who help themselves"
One of the striking features of the
state papers and quasi-official letters
of the pioneers of our great republic
was the frequent, almost unfailing
reference to the mercy of Providence.
During and after the civil war public
prayer was custom, and it was a
custom alluded in public documents.
to the power in which our people
trusted.
No success, no prosperity, no hon.
or, is the sole result of mans own
efforts. Each of these blessings is
contingent on good health and fav-
orable circumstances. If a man has
nothing else, in his exalted opinion,
to give thanks for, he at least owes
thanks for the health and mental
state without which it would be i'm
possible to achieve anything.
Prayer is not a sign of weakness,
but of greatness. The weak man is
the vain man who disdains to pray
The strong, great man is the man
who is grateful to providence for
whatever is his lot.

ONE cLERGYMAWs SUGGESTION

A friendly clergyman fayors us
with much appreciated commentator
Of the opinions which WI express in
these columns. He declares satisfac-
ton over accumulation of cardinal
moral PRINCIPLES in undenominationa
style, as he believes that this propo
ganda cannot fail to help this com
munity and the nation. And he sug-
gests that we should go little farth-
er and discuss prayer.
In North Dakota, says the clergy
man, the farmers held public as
sembly of thanksgiving and manifest
ed their gratitude of their plentiful
harvest a few weeks ago. people in
Denison, Texas, prayed for speedy
termination of the railroad strike
The clergyman says that incidents
such as these deserve special com
ment.
1t is probably fact that many per
sons do not pray at all, even in
church, and that may never pray or
think of prayer. There are many
who believe that prayer is. "a sign of
weakness. indicating want Of self.
reliance. There are many who pray
only when they are distraught from
sorrow or misfortune, who recognize
prayer as the sole means to help them

A PLEA FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY.

: III THESE SorulQ polltlcdl days Wnel
the world is reeking with bitterness
and contention is the order of thu
day, it is most refreshing and delight
full to find Georgian making a sincere
plea for Christian unity.

Editor Constitution: The time
has come, in the history of Chris
tain civilization, when all Chris
tians should get closer together
on the basis of united effort to
save the world. l wrote letter
to this effect some months ago
and you kindly printed it on your
editorial page, but if there has
from any of the brethren of any
of the Christian denominations l
have failed to hear it. l now re-
peat what | said then, that there
should be a closer union of heart
between all who name the name
of Christ, and if the movement
cannot be taken up by the &C.
clesiastics in ought to be done by
the laymen.
But in order for such thing
to be FEASIBILITY we will still
have to get above all demonia-
tional pre- ;udices and get upon
high gt.und. We will have to
consider the immense good there
is in all denominations and rise
| high enough, in our Christian
thought, to get entirely above the
field Of minor differences.
We will have to quit fighting
one another, Or doing anything
except to tell the world that we
are bretheren, united in onoe
great faith seeking to get the
world to come along with u.s. Let
us all seek with one united eff
fort to bring the world to Christ.
In order to do this we will have
to put aside all differences and
absolutely forget all our prejudic-
es. The patchwork for all will
have to be: Come to Christ.
In order to get ourselves in the
spiritual frame of MINI where it
would be possible to put aside
all our prejudices and precon-
cepts We would have to think
earnestly and gaze steadily upon
the good that is in all Christian
denominations, ignoring the diff
ferences and accepting hearty the
great fundamental truth that all,
without exception, are seeking
| to bring the world to Christ And
we can bring ourselves to a sec
ognition of that truth if we will
try.

bility. Let the Protestant Chris
