Today's Sermonneffe

proud TO ever apologize to an
other man. Aren't we all. We
have one big sin in our lives to
keep from committing other sins.
The result is that we are really
bringing dishonour to ourselves
through this whiteWashed i'm
purity, and then we ask other
men why other people have less
and less regard for us and our
desires to contribute toward the
cultural and personal needs of
community.
The truth of the whole situa-
ton is that we are not seeking
the most important need FIRST.
Wasn't it Cortez who had as his
motto For God an gold" We
too say on our coins In God We
Trust" Both notices are half
truths. Both notices are laugh
ed at by many. The reason is
simply that the Spaniard as wei
as the American makes it sound
we'll by placing God first in the
motto, but seldom if ever does
he place Him first in actual life.
Gold comes before God in life,
and it is the root Of all evil"
Our trust ism gold, as we'll as
the Spaniard's trust, until the
gold is worthless, and unable to
help us,-then we trust God!
Gods good anger at sin is
known to us, and yet we diSre-
gard His will. The result is &C
curately given by Paul in his let
ter to the Romans. The lust of
some human hearts for unnat-
ural power and priority in the
eyes of their fellows, when they
know that they are trying ways
that won't work, always results
in dishonour. At the same time
such pitiable souls attempt to
save themselves before their fell
lows by speaking false witness
about others with the motive of
diShonOuring them. The do it by
telling half-truths, and by bluff
ing, and their methods are
plain 10 all except themselves.
They resort to that which is inn
pure, and actually exchange
Gods truth for what is false.
One of the greatest indications
of how this sort of procedure
gets hold of some people, was
shown for our special benefit in
the story of the lady who was
brought before Jesus, and her
accusers were all ready with
large stones in hand, to make the
kill, feeling certain that Jesus
could not come to her defense.
Jesus did not defend her as
much as he accused her accusers.
They were not without sin, and
Jesus knew it. My friends, none
Of us are innocent. How dare
we assume for one fleeting mo-
ment that someone ought to be
removed from the group to
which we belong? Or that we
prefer to withdraw until the
Pastor leaves? Yes, people in
our day of protested Christian
faith actually talk that way, and
then brazenly attend worship
services in mockery, carrying
out program of bluff and de-
ceit upon their fellows. They
are without excuse" Someday,
may man seek Gods kingdom
first, and finally remove this
great tragedy of our humanity.
Insincerity cannot find its ex-
preston in the worship Of the.
Creator in spirit and in truth.
Such insincerity is denied, and
someone else is made out as the
responsible person for such
weakness. Our human reason
ing is futile, and must be aban-
doned. Furthermore we should
welcome every presence that

Text: Acts 16:l3-15; Philippians
3:7-l4
BY VIM. E. GILROY, ID. ID.

BY VIM. f. GILROY, d. ID.
When Paul saw a vision in
the night man of Mace
donia saying, Come over into
Macedonia, and help us" - and
in obedience 10 the vision cross
ed over into Europe from Asia,
it was the vital beginning of
the organized movement that
eventually was TO bring Chris
tianity to our own America.
In our modern world Paul
would have weighed the Gospel
against all the forces of modern
civilization, the powers engag-
ed in war, the forces of educa-
ton, the forces of scientific re-
search and invention, the great
achievements of industry and
commerce, the marvels of dis
covery, etc, and he would have
been as unashamed of the Cos
pei as when he compared its
power with that of imperial
Rome. He would see the Gospel
still as the ultimate and only
hope of a world torn by violence
and strife, paying the long pent-
up penalty of choosing ways of
lust for power and wealth rath-
er than the ways of brotherly
love and mutual service.
Let us thank God that Paul
did not hesitate. If he had been
as unmindful Of the vision and
the appeal Of his visitor as many
of us have been about obeying
Gods commands, or accepting
the responsibilities of Christian
privilege, and if others had been
equally neglectful, the Gospel
might never have come to us.
In view of that is il not fair
question to ask ourselves, What
are we doing to send and spread
the Gospel to others?'
There are still dark places in
the world that need the Gospel
as much as did ancient Mace
donia. They are saying to us, in
effect, Come over and help us.
The people who think that
missionary enterprise is done for
are surely unobservant and I'M
acquainted with the realities of
the worlds need. It is true that
missionary work in many lands
has been sadly disrupted, and
that there are areas, as in ia
pan, where it seems to have

NEW YORK, May 26-It seems
incredible, but undergrou d
sources disclose too many promi-
nent civilian sports personages
have declined or evaded making
overseas trips to entertain service
men in the various war areas.
Because of this surprising re-
luctance there was a New York
huddle which brought together
officials of the war department,
the USO and New York sports
writer's.
You would be surprised-amazed
at some Of those names-nameS
that designate men who became
internationally famous and COM
paratively wealthy through sports.
You would not believe that these
persons. of all people, would give
a black eye 10 sports through
their apparent selfiShness-would
mar the grand record that sports
have made in the war. But such
is the situation.

tered yesterdays game with
Pershing with a record OF four
shutout victories in four Metro
politan League starts. When he
was through he not only had his
fifth straight shutout under his
belt, he had a no-hitter, too ,
Five men reached first and none
advanced beyond second as High
land Park beat the Doughboys,
40. Three walked and two got
on through errors. Pierce made
three hits himself 10 keep the
Parkers unbeaten in the North
east section.
Pierce has allowed a total OF
only 10 hits in the five league
games, which explains his run OF
scoreless innings.
Medum-sized. he has a good
fast ball and curve and wlldneSS
on his part is rare. Best of all, he
is smart. with a good deal OF
baseball sense for a l6-year-old.
Northwestern won its sixth IN a
row in the southwest sector by
overcoming Wilbur Wright, 1872,
as Harry Ramsey pitched two
hitter. Ronald Teasley led the
Colt batters with a homer. triple
and single.
Eastern remained on the top OF
the heap in the northeast division
by humping Miller 1870. Herman

went only FIVE innings. Ernest

anything is yet TO be deter

the other Tiger starting south
paw. has also pitched well, but

Chief Elon Hogsett, the vet

To say the Tigers showing
in the standings fails 10 reflect
much help from left handed
pitching gives a wrong view OF
the local teams problems.
The team hasn't helped the
southpaws, either, if you want
to champion the cause Of the
fingers. All the good pitching
in the world is wasted unless
there is power to drive home
runs.

fine pitching by right handlers.
While early figures. IN the
case Of some left handlers, APP
pear to give a distorted value,
il Is apparent from official
averages that Southpaws have
not done too well this season.
Harold NewhouSer OF the
Tigers is perhaps the best left
handler in the league since
Thornton lee of the White Sox
does not seem able 10 regain
ms old form.
To date. NewhouSer has
pitched excellent ball-better
than the figures reveal. As a
matter OF fact, his dismal rec
ord of last year was not a
true picture OF the young De
troiters ability.
He won only eight games IN
1913. as compared 10 II losses.
He started well. but hurt his
