/ promise: "verily verify, I say un-
to you, He that beieveth on me-
the works that I do shall he do also;
and greater works than these shan
he do; because I go unto my Faith
er." In the 18th verse the promise
is given even more specifically:
"And whatsoever ye shall ask in
my name, that will I do, that the
Father may be glorif'ed I'M the
Som"
The promise is broad enough to
cover not only spiritual gifts, but
the healing of the body also.
A Cooperative World
Another practical thought in the
miracle of the palsied man must
not be overlooked-yiz., that the
palsied man was brought to Jesus
by sympathetic friends.
We do not live alone and we can
do little ourselves, This is a CO.
operative world and we are all de-
pendent upon each other. 1t is a
hard hearted person who will not
aid the suffering. Let a person be
knocked down, run over, or meet
with any other accident, and every
one within hearing will rush to the
rescue of the person injured.
Those who carried the sick mans
bed may have been relatives or
they may have been friends or they
may have been strangers. The i'm
pulse to help is strong among al
most all where the need is visible,
as in the case of bodily injury,
disease, or infirmity.
But there is a larger lesson to
be gathered from this incident.
Mans greatest need is spiritual.
Comparatively few make demands
upon us for such service as was rem
dered by the palsied mans friends
but all about us are those who need
the Great Physician for the healing
of their souls.
Pertinent Questions
Are we as quick to note the suf-
fering that sin causes as we are to
see the need of physical aidi
Have we as great faith in
Christ's power to cleanse the heart
as the people of Galilee had in His
power to cure the bodyi
Are we as willing to conduct to
Christ sinners who need forgive
ness as those in olden times were
to carry the bed-ridden into the
presence of the SaviourS
Those whom Christ healed were
quick to tell of the change they had
experienced; thus one cure led to
many applications for relief. Does
the news spread as rapidly when one
is born again-when the heart be-
gins to love the things it hated and
to hate the things it lovedi
A physicians practice is widened
by the testimony of patients whom
ne restores to health; so Christ's
fame must be spread abroad by
those who, describing their exper-
lenee, can say: Whereas was
blind, now l see."
Christ Still Heals Ii
Our churches should be crowded II
With those who come to find the
way Of life; enquirers should be
brought in multitudes by sympa-
hetic friends who have faith in
he power of Christ, for that DOW
n Is manifested as clearly now as
t was nineteen hundred years ago
manifested in transformed lives

With sins forgiven.

The Lesson

The lesson taught by the Astoria confagration is the
necessty in small well large cities OF adequate lre
apparatus and stringent building restrictions eliminating
fire risks. .
If big fire started in Salem almost any other city,
famed by gale the entire business section would pooao
be in ashes before the flames could be checked
1t true that Salem enjoys great advantage IN lts woe
and avenues which would make much easier to keep
the flames from spreading but what is thereby gained IS
offset by the lack of adequate fire fighting equipment
So the city has played in luck but luck tne poorest
of prevention Astoria also for many decades played III
luck Without fire-alarm system, without equipment Iof
combating more than fire at time without any, appa
as for fighting flames above the second floor Salem Is
peculiarly at the mercy OF the fire gods. Inc hau =
trained freghters that have efficient though they are
handicapped by insufficient equipment would struggle
heroically but futilely against fire of any size
The best the world against fire after properly
built structures is an adequately equipped and trained fire
department Salem is big enough and wealthy enough tC
have the best We will only have ourselves to blame II W.
continue toy with fate and trust to luck and suffer tn
fate of Astoria the result of penny wise and ponne
