AN ANSWER TO PRAYER
RY the REV. JOHN McGINN

God may answer our prayers
OF petition in one of three wavs,
Sometimes He says YES; at other
times His reply is NO; and then
again He may simply bid us
WAIT. There is no such thing as
an unanswered prayer. And God
is the same wise and loving
Father when He refuses a re-
quest, or tells us to wait, as when
He grants our hearts desire.
YES -. Anyone who has
prayed with faith .and persever-
ance knows the efficacy of prav-
er. Each will remember some
dire calamity that was averted,
gifts of solace bestowed in a mo-
ment of trial, and strength in
abundance to withstand tempta-
ton. Even the most cursory re-
view of the past discloses count
less spiritual and temporal favors
that were directly linked to our
prayers. Because of careless fam
iliarity with Gods blessings, our
gratitude does not match His
generosity. g-.
NO :. God is powerful, but
He is also good and wise. And
fortunately for u.s. He answers
us. according to His wisdom and
not according to our folly. A flat
and unequivocal refusal is often
man who has been starving may
charitable reply to an unwise re-
quest Children, old or young.
are apt to take short views Of
their own needs. But God is ever
alive to our real necessities; and
if He does not always give us
what we want, He does give us
what we. need. .
WAIT To give too much
too swiftly, is often as hazardous
as to give too little too late. A
man who ha sheen starving NAV
want to satisfy his hunger i'm
mediately. But even his best
-friend will urge moderation and
delay. There's no denying that
waiting may be a most painful
experience. We like to Danish
our troubles or solve our prob
lens with dispatch. Yet exper-
ience reminds us that haste and
precipitancy may be even less
profitable than sloth and mac
ton. St Augustine suggests that
God often delays His gifts in Or
der to increase our sense of need
in Himself and in order to purify
our desires. God knows WHEN
and what to give.
Whether Gods response is
YES, NO, or WAIT, He always
answers our requests; and His
will is ever the best measures of
our welfare.

low of SO degrees yesterday morning.
During last weeks heat wave the 50

August, 1918, according to Ralph f.
Weber. For two days in succession
that month the temperature was 101
and 100.
The hot wave came to an end sud
denly on Sunday afternoon as the
result of an electrical storm which
included hail in some parts Of the
county. Lightning caused the death
of three cows belonging to F. L. Wen

came Wednesday morning when the
