MAKING BUSINESS

Under these circumstances
it is no cause for wonder that
many good men ask them
selves the question: Can a
man be a Christian and en-
gage in modern business?
Can he be a complete Chris

not been fully Christianized?
1t ought to be frankly ac-

obedience to the duties of

For the great mass Of mankind
death means oblivion When their
activities have closed. there is a
little ripple of emotion in the home
circle and the world kncws no more
Of their personalities or achieve
ments. We call that man great, the
remembrance Of whose life and
service is extended throughout the
world and whose memory gathers
increasing fame from generation
to generation.
1t is thus that men are honoring
the memory of Abraham Lincoln.
More than a hundred years after
his birth and more than half q
century since the dramatic close
of his life's work, Lincoln stands
enshrined in the thought and IN
the hearts of his countrymen
During the last year Of the war,
his appelation had become Father
Abraham" We may recall in the
thought Of this relation to the PEG
pie, the record Of Washington. The
first President has come into
history as the Father of his
country" but for Washington this
role of father is something OF
historic development. During
Washington's lifetime. he was dear
to small circle Of intimates; he
was held in respectful regard by a
large number of those with whom
We're carried on his responsibilities
in the army. and later in the
nations government. BY many
good Americans, however. he was
regarded as an aristocrat and there
were not a few political leaders,
with groups OF voters behind them,
who dreaded and doubtless honest
~ dreaded. that the influence OF
Washington might be utilized 10
build up in this country some fresh
form Of the monarchy that chad
been overthrow. Even when the
animosities and suspicious had died
away. the feeling was one OF
rather than affection.
This sentiment gave rise later to
the title of the Father OF his
country" but there was no such

No part Of the admirable plat

thought and more commendation
than this paragraph;
The goal Of prohibition is the

activities from the bondage Of

given the vision Of the mean
ing OF this freedom and enlist

There is no more sinister form

does not follow from this that
a Christian man ought to 60
out of business and leave ii
all to the unchristian, any
more than that he ought to
go out of life because modern
life is not Christian. He
should remain in business
and use every scrap of his in
fluence TO put modern bust
ness on a more Christian
footing. 1t is true that Chris
tan business men may not at
present be able to fulfill all
that the Sermon on the
Mount implies in their social
relationships, but no limit
can be placed to the individ-
ual application of the rules
of Christ. If Christian bust
ness men become convinced
that Jesus can become Lord
of the business world, and if,
following conviction, they ac-
quire the courage to apply,
steadily and unswervingly,
the Christian law to business,
then step by step the Chris
tan spirit and temper will
become dominant in business.
1t is not an impossible task.
Christ has been able to do
greater things than introduce
a new viewpoint into bust
ness. What adds hopefulness
to the situation is the fact
that the major part of bush
ness today is conducted on
the principle that honesty
is the best policy" This does
not mean that the majority of
those engaged in business are
strictly honest, although it
may imply it. But it does i'm
ply that men have recognized
the fact that a more stable
and therefore better bust
ness may be built up on hon
est lines than by using dis
honest means. Therefore it is,
not impossible for Christian
men to so influence the bust
ness world that it will
recognize the superiority of
the Christian law.
But Christian men in bust
ness will never succeed in do
ing this by yielding to the
ethics of a smart CONNER
cialism. They must be con-
WINGED that Christ can con-
quor the business relation
