LARGE AUDIENCE
HEARS sermon At
BAPTIST Church
DR.. Davidson Discusses "The
Beginning of Wisdom" at
Sunday Night
Service.
The Beginning OF Wisdom.

A large audience, principally young
people, at the Broadway Baptist church
heard the pastor. r. l.. Davidson, on the
subject, "The Beginning Of Wisdom"
from the test THE fear Of the Lord
Is the beginning of wisdom" The
speaker said in part:
Wisdom differentiates man from
the beast. All men should desire wis
dom. Most men seek It, Man starts
lie with the most meager equipment
but with the most stupendous possibili.
ties Of any earthly creature. He starts
at zero so far as wisdom Is concerned.
He has everything to learn. Nature
does not render him the assistance that
1t does the lower animals. Many ami.
mails complete their education In a few
days after they come into this world
without tutor or teacher. For man the
road Is long and to some very tiresome
He must have help 1t is Of vital i'm
poratnce that he get right start or u
start on the right road. Well begun
is half done The wise man says.
The fear Of the Lord IL the beginning
Of wisdom"
The Fear Of the Lord.
"The fear of the Lord Is term used
by the ancient Jews for religion. 1t in
| cludes recognition Of the fact that
God Is; proper conception Of His
character as revealed in His attributes
of Omnipotence, Omniscience, Omni-
presence. Eternity, Holiness. Justice
and love; recognition OF the fact
that He is the Creator and Ruler of
the universe; a reverence for Him and
a sense OF accountability to Him. The
fear OF the Lord is not sfvlsh fear
but that reverential fear that leads TO
whole.hearted and happy submission
to Him and His will"
The Beginning of Wisdom.
"There is a difference between know
edge and wisdom. knowledge is
learning. Wisdom is the apprehension
Of truth and its proper application to
the problems OF life.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning
Of all earthly wisdom. No man can ap-
prehend the facts OF nature without a
! roper apprehension of natures God.
There must be starting point for the
search after truth. God is the great
first cause. In the beginning God ere
ated the heavens and the earth No
man can get anywhere in his search for
wisdom who does not start with God.
The fear OF the Lord is the beginning
Of all heavenly wisdom. No man can
comprehend the wisdom of the spirit
world who has not been lightened by
the light Of God Except a man be
born from above he cannot see the
Kingdom Of God"

HIKER CHAINED TO HIS
BICYCLE VISITS HERE

Something new in the hiker indus
try dropped into Americus this morn
ing-and novel in the frankness that
he was not after wager or purse.
Erwin j. Smith, an ex-soldier "a
years of age, was the man. Hand
cuffed and chained to his bicycle, he
is out to visit every American capital
in two years. He started from Aus
Tx Tex, on December 26, 1921, and
has the signatures of five governors,
those of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi,
Alabama and Florida. He is now on
his way to Atlanta to see Governor
Hardwick.
Smith has irons on both hands and
a chain around his neck. All these
chains are locked, sealed and fasten-
ed to another chain which is locked
to the frame of his bicycle. At night
he stands his bicycle beside his bed,
the chans being longe enough to per.
NIT him to sleep in comfort. The use
of alum water, he said, toughened his
skin so that the irons have not wor.
ride him much.

Much credit is due Chief John T.
Bragg, Of Amerieas, for the success
Of the first OF the singings which
are to be held regularly in the Aggie
auditorium. Personally he invited
many of singers, promising great re-
suits if they would cooperate with
him. He has been the leader in
moving the place Of singing from the
court house, where they have been
held throughout the winter months,
to the auditorium of the Agricultural
college, not only because Of the en-
larged seating capacity, but because
of the piano and the comfort Of the
surroundings. A great singing con-
vention is planned to be held there
some time in May, in which all the
various branches throughout the
southwestern district win be repre-
sented.
Among those present Sunday aft
