as exhibited by King David long
ago. The master motives of human
life are spiritual. The real power
of people resides in the character
of the individual men and women.
Greed, selfishness, materialism, car
nality and disregard for the deep
est truths, eat into the fiber of
folk, and make them incapable Of
the greatness which patriotism de-
mands.
We study today's assigned Scrip
ture in vain unless we get a vivid
idea Of David's consciousness OF
Jehovah as the supreme factor in
Israel's life. David dwelt in awe OF
God; he magnified His name in
beautiful phrases OF true worship.
His Psalms extoll the greatness OF
the Lord, even as did the prayer
which is our Lesson text. The wise
and reverent-and the truly wise are
always reverent-say, with David,
Thou art great, o Jehovah God;
for there is none like Thee"
DaWid's solicitude for his sons,
and Sons sons, is not only Oriental;
it is universal. He wanted to con-
tinue to live after death and to
enjoy Gods favor, in his family line
He reminded the Lord that Thou
hast spoken also of Thy servants
house for a great while to come. "
He understood success as residing in
the family. Everybody knows that
there Is no greater happiness pos
sible to man than to see worthy
children and grandchildren grow up
around him. David's prayer starts
afresh our deepest thought about
the family.

Neither Roosevelt nor Dewey nor
an undecided election can stop

cheer them as have many politi-
clans during the past two months.
The wise man will attend TO his
own business. keep out OF debt,
educate his children TO be useful
and wait for these masses to learn
their lesson through experience.
