The structural steel work was 200 feet high and

This drew a big laugh from Charlie, but he
signaled the FOUNDER" to go inside. Ole waved
his f1ashlight at us and disappeared over the
top to let himself down through the narrow
manllole.
TWO hours later was in my Office when the
telephone rang and my brothers voice, all
excited shouted to me:
"Come quick. We're in terrible mess,
Something's wrong with the FOUNDER"
I took chance on being arrested for speed
ing and raced my car through the streets of
Chicago in record breaking time. My brother
met me at the gate of the factory.
After the "rounder" had been inside OF the
tank for two hours Charlie said, he began to
get worried and climbed the ladder that led
to the top There was no light inside, but
when he flashed his searchlight through the
manhole ne saw the "rounder" lying on his
back on the bottom apparently asleep. He
called to him and got no response then tele-
phoned to me.
I fairly flew up the rungs of that ladder.

CHURCH

Church attendance is often a
habit, and like all habits is not
hard to form. Attendance at
church is Infectious; perhaps con-
tagious would be the better word.
The man and woman who habitu-
ally attend S church influences
others to do likewise. Undoubt-
eddy the reverse is also true.
There are two sets of symbols
that always move the human soul.
One set fills US with apprehension,
the other with disappointment.
The symbols or signs are SOS
and S-R-O. The nrst is the signal
of distress and the other means
standing room only" The first
is often thought of as being more
applicable to the churches than the
other, but with a few more seats
being occupied every Sunday t
the Presbyterian church it looks
as if we may need to prepare a
S-R-O sign in the near future.
It is possible your neighbor
might go to church if you did. If
he does go to church why not fol-
low his example?
We all have our aspirations,
and some of them are spiritual.
A realization Of the spiritual ones
might lead to the achievement of
some of the others.
Remember to pause and pray at
10 o clock every morning during
Lent. Ask the blessing OF God

Baptism and the Lords Supper
The International Uniform Sunday School Lesson for March TO-.
Baptism and the Lords Supper. Matt. %: 10, 20; I Cor. IL: 1929.

synHE discussion of the Christian
u ordinances which are the
theme of this lesson brings us
very easily into the realm of acute
controversies of the sort that in
the main it has been our aim i'll
this column to avoid.
Possibly even the merest COM
ment on baptism and the Lords
Supper cannot be made without
conflict with the strong conyic-
tions upon these matters held in
some quarters.
The very Technology in use
concerning them indicates the di-
vergence of opinion and the in
tensity of feeling. Some churches.
are what are called close com
munion"-the principle of inclu-
sion and exclusion of other pro-
Tossing Christians in the fellow
ship of a local church having to
do with the nature and form OF
baptism. Other churches which
do not speak of ''close COM
munion" hold very strict and par
ticular views concerning the ma
ture and significance of the Lords
Supper.
An Extreme
We have heard of the wife of a
nonconformist missionary in the
depths of Africa who wrote to the
archbishop of Canterbury inquir-
ing whether she would be commit
ting sin in partaking of the COM
munion with her husband and
other nonconformist missionaries
in the mission field. That is, per-
haps,. A very extreme instance, but
it typifes the general attitude of a
fairly large number OF protesting
Christians toward those OF
churches and communions other
than their own.
There are some general facts
which may be emphasized with
value. There is, first OF all, the
reminder that baptism was pri-
marily not a Christian ordinance.
John the Baptist was a forerunner
Of Christ and Christianity, and the
fact that he used baptism as a
part of his method Of propa-.
ganda and discipleship showed
that it was a practice already i'll
vogue before the time of Christ
and to which Christ himself sub
mitted.
The comment of Christ upon
baptism in submitting to that
rite is perhaps the most effective
and significant that we have.
"Thus it becometh us to fulfill
all righteousness" said Jesus. He
probably did not attach great i'm
portance to baptism p ii form, but
he did attach muci rtance TO

OUR SAVIOR'S LUTHERAN
CHURCH

Rev. r. f. CORDES, Pastor.
| Route /, Box 27, Nickwall, Mot.
Last week we considered what
the apostle st. Paul wrote in the
first part of the text, 1 Corinthians
/. IS to 25. There he showed us
that if any man perishes, it is on
account of looking upon the
preaching of the cross, or crucifed
Savior, as f~oolishness. Worldly
wisdom cannot save. But what to
man in his natural, sinful state
seems foolishness, this is able to
do so. Let us now continue with
the rest of the text.
Verse %. For the Jews require
a sign" See Matt. u, So to 40;
Mark s, II, IL. In John 4, As,
Jesus says of the Jews in general:
Except ye see signs and wonders,
we will not believe We find peo-
pie like unto the Jews today de-
handing signs and wonders Of us
who preach and believe the true
Gospel. But wherever we have
the written Gospel, signs and won
ders and miracles are no more
necessary. And the Greeks seek
after wisdom" Our times are
called the scientific age because
it also seeks to know and does
find out things as did the Greeks
at their time. But as a rule, the
more men know the prouder they
get. For is it not a fact that our
age prides itself being modern,
even in religion? True, we do
know more than did the ancient
people about chemistry, electricity,
and the like. But this greater
knowledge has also misled us to
believe that we have become bet
ter in the sight of God and are
good enough to get to heaven the
way we are. That is false wis
dom. The truly Christian church
teaches another way, which is the
only way.
Verse 90. "But we preach
Christ crucifed, unto the Jews a
stumbling block, and unto the
Greeks foolishness." The Chris
tian church does not preach Christ
to be the wisest and best man that
ever lived. He was the wisest
and best, but the preaching of
that fact would not bring a single
soul into heaven. However, to
preach Christ crucified: This
preaching has brought and will
bring many back to God. Christ's
preaching unto the Jews that He
had to die for their sins was unto
them as though a block were put
in their way, over which they
stumbled and fell. 1t is true of
everyone who believes that his
own righteousness is good enough
Gods sight. And unto the
JIGGhS dlfdIlOn ny Tic liSnlC
usness of another was foolish
less. He considered his own
wisdom and goodness sufficient.
And we ourselves are no different
Until by the law of God the wick
.dness in our hearts has been re-
-ealed to us. The sinful state of
nan is described in Romans 3, 9
II.
Verse "a. but INTO them which
called, both Jews and Greeks,
,hrist the power of God, and the ]
wisdom of God" Who are the ]
called?" Those who have obey
d the call: Come unto Me all
e that labor and are heavy laden, {
nd I will give you rest" These
elieve they moi even have the
over to do good. The crucified
.hrist is to them the power of {
cd which has caused them to do 5
lat which is pleasing in the sight 7

1t as an expression OF fellowship
and as a linking of his religious
life with that of his age and with
the religious life that had gone
before. Such a spirit gives to for
NAL observance a new meaning
and reality.
In the supper in the upper
room. which has become the his
toric founding OF the Lords Sup
per as observed in the church and
to which Paul refers in the verses
of our lesson. we find the true
meaning OF communion for Chris
tians. There are some who have
questioned whether Jesus intend
ed to establish i'll that incident
any formal ordinance at all.
Formal Expression
For the thoughtful disciple bap-
tism is a serious thing. 1t is the
formal and public expression Of
ones discipleship and OF ones
place III the company OF those who
believe III Jesus and who seek to
embody his spirit in the world.
So also the partaking OF the
Lord supper is ii solemn action.
ID time for heart searching and for
the measuring OF ones life by the
standards OF the sacrificial love OF
God IN Christ and the privileges
and blessings thai divine grace ne
slows upon man.
THE truth is that baptism and
the Lords supper arc what we
make them in II own lives. They
may mean to us very little, or they
express for us all the worth OF
eternal values.

Sermons in Rhyme
CA Series of Ten)
BY H. E. PRALL.
e-"THE GOLDEN RULE"
John 1894, "a new commandment, I give unto you,
that We have love, one to another
From the beautiful Garden of Edens bounds,
To the realms of the present times,
Men have striven to gain by their brothers wounds,
Til the wird fairly reeks with their crimes.
This does not imply that the worlds getting worse,
No matter what pessimists say:
There was never a time since the Bibles first verse,
When so many inquired of the way.
In every language beneath the sun,
Philosophers, small and great,
Have issued their warning to everyone,
Against the dangers of hate.
But love worketh kindness, endureth long,
Is patient, has beauty sublime.
1t worketh no i'll to the weak or the strong,
And its gains come in, all the time,
They tell us that hatred corrodes the soul,
And selfshness hardens the heart;
That neither will gain any worthwhile goal:
Any fool may have both for his part.
In Chinese, we read, by a sage, renowned,
This saying that runs like a song,
Into pits we have dug for Others" he found,
"You, yourself will plunge headlong."
The Master believed in the value Of love, f*f@
And it's wonderful power to save.
He knew it would help men to rise above
The discouraging fear of the grave,
And He gave men a law, a commandment new,
Midst the rubbish it shines-like a gem,
What ye would that others should do unto you,
Do We likewise, the same unto them"
