Friends meeting led in prayer, and
the first church quartet gave beautl-
full musical number.

Clean Work pastor OF the Reid Me-
mortal church upon the subject. OF
Alteration Mr.. Work described
alteration as the gateway to the pray
er life of the individual and of the
church and said the other aspects OF
prayer, confession, petition and inter
cession could not long live in a heart
that did not adore its God. He said
the attitude of alteration is a spiritual
necessity, not to God but to man.
The speaker used the vision of
Isaiah as an illustration of the atti-
| tude of alteration leading to spiritual
progress He outlined the reasons for
alteration contained in the first five
verses of Psalm 1853. They were that
God RENTS the debt of sin, relieves
physical and spiritual ills, reclaims the
lives of men, rewards according to his
mercy, reveals his continued provid-
ence and renews mans waning
strength.

HOLD ALL WARS UBIQUITOUS
Why the Msnnenites Tor Feur Hun
drsd Ysars Have Been Wanderers
Over the Earth.

Religious pilgrims. thousands OF
them. wandering countless miles from
one country to another. seeking y land
where they may obey the dictates Of
conscience.
All this has the flavor Of byg0ne
ages. One IL reminded of the flight
Of the Hebrews from Egypt and Of the
wandering OF the pilgrims 400 years
ago. 1t Is somewhat startling to dis
cover that pilgrims for conscience
sake exist today. And yet, remarks
the Boston Globe, 10000 Mennonites
from Manitoba have been making ar
engagements to leave Canada, cross the
United States and settle In land of
promise Of their own which they have
purchased from the Mexicans.
Since 1925, when their sect was
founded In Switzerland, the ancestors
Of this branch OF the Mennonites have
been wanderers on the face Of the
earth. They stayed for couple Of
centuries In the German Baltic prov
inces, then they moved over into Rus
STA for another 100 years. Half a
century ago they took up land In
Canada. And now they are again on
the move The whole tribe Is to cross
this country In special trains and set
tie on great tract in Chihuahua,
Mexico.
The reason given for their depart
ure from Canada In their dislike Of
the law which requires English be
taught In their schools. II Is more
likely that there Is deeper cause.
A question Of language has scarcely
the power TO drive a people from one
wilderness to another for four centu-
ries.
The Mennonites hold strictly to an
affirmation Of the iniquity Of bearing
arms. This branch could not stand
the beginnings Of German militarisn.
They fed from the Russia OF the car.
They are now trying to find spot
on the earth where they will not be
obliged to swallow modern national
Ism.
