WEEKLY SHORT
SERMON
BY DIR. A. G.. Bearer
(For the Literary Service Bureau)
A FOR A

Text:-Of the increase of his gov
eminent and peace there shall be no
end.-Isaiah 9:6.
By the Jews this text was misun-
rerstood. They had in mind an earth
ly government; a temporal, political
government, while the prophecy re-
fers to the spiritual dominion of the
Christ. The text gives US the only
means by which peace can be attained.
Note the, connection-"The increase of
his government and peace" meant
that the progress Of peace is to be
coextensive with the increase of His
government.
HIS GOVERNMENT emphasizes
good will which will mean the elimi-
nation Of malevolence, hatred, malice,
racial and national bitterness, and Of
their affiliates and concatenates which
produce war.
HIS GOVERNMENT stands for
human brotherhood which is tersely
set forth in the motto, "God our
Father, Christ our Redeemer and Man
our Brother"
This recognition of universal father
hood and its concomitant principle,
universal human brotherhood will do
much to bring about peace.
HIS GOVERNMENT is founded on
LOVE, the greatest thing in the
world" and love inspires men to deal
fairly, honestly and generously with
their fellows. It ~postulates interde-
pendence and reciprocal helpfulness.
HIS GOVERNMENT minimizes the
material, the coveting of which and
striving for which are responsible for
a-ntagonisms and conflicts. and it ex
ats the things of the Spirit, such as
inspire self-sacrifce in the interest OF
others.
THE INCREASE OF HIS GOV
ERNMENT means the increase OF
these principles which alone IAN sup
plant and eliminate those which are
responsible for war. Therefore, the
increase Of peace is dependent upor
the increase of the government, the in
fluence, the dominance Of Jesus Christ
the Prince of Peace.

preached by the pastor, Father
Pruess. Twelve altar boys led the

children dressed in cleaning
white with wreathes and wells, as
they marched from the assemble

. Clock Mechanic

New York, May 3O-ANP-
The most unusual job a colored
clock maker has had fell into
Peter L. Huffstead Is lap the other
day. He was sent a chronometer
from an official at the New York
University for repairing. How
this man had heard Of Huffstead
is a mystery, but he sent his
chronometer valued at $3.50, up
to Harlem to have the master
clock mechanic overhaul it and
put in in shape. Huffstead says
even after the job is complete, he
will have to hold the thing for
two weeks to see that it keeps
good time. Used on a yacht, the
chronometer remains at a level
no matter how the boat pitches or
rocks.

Memorial to Our
Warriors
Rv Selma Gordon

By Selma Gordon.
The bugle called some years ago.
Our land of freedom heard.
To the Western Front our bows
did 60,
There many warriors stirred.
They fought on foreign battle
fields,
Amid the shot and she'll.
So to keep this country safe and
free,
There many warriors fell.
The bugle sounded. . .Armistice!
The noise Of war did cease,
Alas! when the battle s strife was
Ger,
Some warriors slept in peace.
Today their graves are strewn
with flowers,
By loved ones who do mourn.
But peoples shelter in Flanders
Field,
Where warriors brave were
borne.

GIVING vs.. RECEIVING

This quotation is from the writings
of the Apostle Paul and the verse runs
at is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive. "A modern rendering is "There
is more happiness in giving than in
receiving" A little retrospection will
convince that more happiness has
come from giving than from receiving.
Selfish, s~ef-serving, misery persons
may doubt the truth of this aphorism
but there are thousands who will testi-
fly to its truth.
Even a casual study of human his
tory and of the worlds b~enefactors
will demonstrate that those who have
made the largest and most benef-
cial contributions to human progress
and human happiness have been those
who were constantly giving. For the
most part, they were poor as to ma
terial things, but in service, in sympa-
thy, in love, in comfort to the dis
tressed and relief to the needy, they
were ~unstinting givers. And a pole
of such contributors would bring the
acknowledgement that their chief hap
piness came from giving rather than
from receiving.

The services at St. Johns last
Sunday was very impressive. 1t

due to other urgent business and
the illness of Mrs. Gregg, he had

hut not as well attended as the
one held previously for the

The church wishes to take this
opportunity to express their
sympathy to Mr.. and Mrs. White
in the passing Of their son, John
Lowe.
It was very touching to see SO
many young people who were
such close associates of this young
man. Let US hope that they VIII
take the matter serious and give
it much consideration for the
benefit of their own lives Tor
which they may be called to rend-
er into the hands of God at a

A Plea For
Universal Peace
By r. A. Adams


Cor The Literary Service Bureau
On each Memorial Day,
'Tis well that we should pay
On debt Of honor, due
Our heroes, loyal, true,
Who died to make it sure
This nation shall endure.
And honor let US give
To those who yet may live,
And who fought, side by side,
With those who fighting died,
All willing thus to fight
For Justice, Truth, and Right.
But let us, here and now,
Renew our solemn vow,
That cruel wars shall cease
And come the reign of peace,
Then, those in battle slain
Shall not have died in vain.

The Townsend Plan to pay 5000

Let me remind the banks of

Bankers, business men and
good citizens generally had better
stand by the forward-looking poll
