The character of Jacob was the
theme of Wednesday nights sermon
by Billy Sunday, who said:
1t is not necessary for me to con-
sumo my strength and your time toll
give you the story in detail. Fori
there is no character in all history
with whom the average man or wom-
an is more familiar than Jacob
Someone has named him the Peter of
the Old Testament; and the history
OF Jacob is largely the history of the!
Jewish nation in epitome; and | think
that the existence and the history of
the Jewish nation is one of the stu
pendous monuments of the inspiration
of the Bible
The seed of Abraham is the miracle
of history. 1t makes my blood boil
TO hear man speak of the Jew as a
sheeny or Christkiller. If ever you
walk the streets of glory and are kept
out of hell it will be because of your
repentance and faith in the shed
blood of Jew, for humanity speaking,
Jesus Christ came from the jewish
nation. And Mirabeau in the French
Assembly, Patrick Henry in the
IlOuGc VI DOul BcOlSlS, anu OdU1utl
Adams in Independence Hall, and
Daniel Webster in the United States
Senate, never uttered anything more
eloquent than the response to tho
common people made by Jesus, when
they tainted and sneered at him for
being Jew.
Jews Have Kept
Nationality Intact.

when your ancestors were naked saw
ages wandering through the forests,
mine were High Priests in the Temple
of God" And a Jew is just as dis
tinctively a Jew today as he was
5000 years ago. All other nations
have lost their nationality by marry
ing and inter-marrying and assimilat-
ing, but not the Jew.
Some of the shrewdest financiers
of the world are Jews. You pay trib-
ute to the Jew for the suit you have
an, and the dress you wear; for they
control the tailoring and the Gus
tom-made business of the United
States. There is not cabinet in
Europe that hasn't had Jews in its
membership.
If you visit a poorhouse you will
not find single Jew father or moth
er living off the county. You won't
find a Jew among the hoboes or
weary Willies panhandling for a
hand-out. A Jew organized the New
York pure milk supply = my friend
Nathan Strauss. And there is moth
ing more important today than to
help the people obtain pure milk. That
has been one of the greatest sources
for the prevention of disease. 1t was
recently discovered that there are
over three thousand kinds of germs
in milk We have only been able to
classify four hundred of them. When
milk comes from the udder of the
COW it is about the same tempera-
ture as your blood, and at that temp
erature the germs will double over
twenty million times So they re-
duce it down to cold temperature
to freeze and destroy them.
1t was Jew that gave the money
that sent Columbus on his voyage of
discovery. Isabelle had to hook her
Jewels and they were hooked to a
Jew. And the map Columbus used
was drawn by Jew. One of his
officers was a Jew, and his doctor
and interpreter were Jews. And the
interpreter was the first one to land
upon the new soil. Three of George
Washingtons staff were Jews. Col
onel Frederick North was Jew, and
gave George Washington S65S,000 to
prosecute the Revolutionary War; to
help make possible our American In
dependence.
And the Jews have been living in
every land, but they have selected
America as their home. In 1865, the
British Government, which had the
whole control of this country, gave
them the right to make this, my
friends, their home, and for 1000
years they had been without home,
without a country, without a flag
And when 20,000,000 boys and girls in
the public schools of America rise
and salute and pledge allegiance to
the Stars and Stripes, $4,000 of the
patriots are Jews. And it is the only
nation that God selected through
which to reveal himself to the world
and they have outlived the Tudors
the Stuarts, and the Plantagenets
They have outlived the Romanoffs OF
Russia; they have outlived the tyr
amy of Spain; they have outlived the
dynasties of France; the glory OF
Charlemagne: or the name of Julius
Caesar; or the conQuering power OF
Alexander the Great; and the Baby
lOnian h1nRS III ESypI, anu tue
Pharaohs. All hail to the Jews! Sc
| have come to call you, sir, back tc
your God.
Too Few Pray
In Real Sincerity.
How many people pray in real sin
cerity? Then seem to dress up fol
the occasion like some grocer who
puts the large apples on the top Of
the barrel and the worm-eaten wind
falls in the bottom Or when yot
go TO buy strawberries you find tbs
red ones are on top and the greer
ones in the bottom, and maybe tbs
box is half inch shy. Or you walk
up to buy basket of peaches; they
look ripe under the red mosquito
netting. but I'll bet that you could
kill man at thirty yards with one o.
them They are so hard!
My friends, the world is asking Goo
for picture of Jesus Christ, and ir
response he points to the photographs
of the people whose names are or
the church record. Oh, what a sac
reproduction! No wonder the worIl
isn't crowding around Gods photo
graph gallery. No wonder it is stand
