PRACTICAL RELIGION
 AS EVERY DAY FORGE STRESSED BY PASTOR

Integrity, self-control and faith in fellow men and God were declared to be the essentials to national perm aren't prosperity as well as individual happiness, In the course of the ser mon by Rev. B. c. Hodge, associate pastor of the First Methodist church, Sunday morning. the sermon being based on the Psalmist,s declaration Blessed is the nation, whose God is the Lord"
 In showing that Christianity ought to be made practical force in mems every day business affairs, and that happiness does not come from mere material gain and advancement, Rev. Hodge pointed out that the psalmist, King David. did not say, Happy is the nation which has great wealth" neither did he say, Happy is the nation which is mighty in material things" but he did say and that is true today. Happy Is the nation. and happy Is the individual whose God is the Lord"
 "ts it practical:" asked the speaker Can this religion be worked into your business? Do you believe the principles of Jesus Christ can be worked into your business? I am afraid if l were to ask this question here this morning. about 75 per cent of you business men would answer. mo- We profess it, but do we &C., tually believe 1t? No wonder there are so many failures. No wonder there Is sc much industrial strife. We have failed to look upon our Christianity as workable, practical force.
 What Is prosperity? Where is 1t to be found? What are the fundn- mentals of fundamental prosperity Not raw material. The continent of Africa is the richest in raw material, even now producing 80 per cent of the worlds diamonds, 20 per cent of the worlds gold with water power and other resources unlimited. Yet J. Hays Hammond says that the the trouble with Africa Is that 1t is dark country. and the only places where prosperity Is evident Is where Christianity has become a force"

World Ship Riding
 Its Toughest Sea,
 Congregation Told

In speaking to his congregation last night, Pastor W. P. McLenran of the Adventist church, said in part.
 The last few years have wit messed national distress unparalleled by anything of the past. The world ship Is riding the toughest sea of it's sailings. Whether we be optimist or pessimist, we cannot ignore the unprecedented si1e of the trouble waves.
 Tt is a common excuse to attribute the great increase of crime to the World war. careful examination of the question causes thoughtful person to conclude that the war did not cause this criminal state Of af- fairs, but rather gave nightly ofi- ward push to a wave that has been gaining in strength and volume dur ing many years.
 The world is going wrong be- cause they have forgotten God and departed from the standard of Hh Word. When men have no regard for the law of God they will not have much respect for the laws of men. Jesus Christ pointed out that because of the prevalent disregard of Gods law wickedness would in- crease in the earth.
